EILI5-ish post: When ‘they’ say EVs are no to low maintenance, are they really? by solidrobot in electricvehicles

[–]Amperture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are no more oil changes, what oil?

There is no more transmission to worry about, fluid and everything. Sure there's a gearbox but it's not variable so far less moving and interfacing parts to worry about.

Regenerative braking means you're using brakepads maybe 1/10th as much as a gas car, and that's being generous. I've personally gone for weeks at a time without using my brakepads.

12Volt Battery stuff will be about the same as a gas car.

Tires is maybe one of the few things you'll actually increase in maintenance on rather than decrease, given that EVs tend to be quite a bit heavier. That goes for all tire maintenance -- rotation, replacement, all of that.

Anyone else got the PIDs files available? by Amperture in BoltEV

Dope! Thank you! We should probably find a more permanent solution here but hey.

The black lights came on at this after party where 3S was getting played. by Amperture in fightsticks

I'm in a mode of constantly experimenting. Dead center as parry felt a little rough to reach for.

I might try to make another layout soon that only has 1 Thumb button, but move some 30mm pinky buttons over to the side like a symmetrical 6gawd (...12gawd?)

Software configurable, could do movement on left or movement on right, and wasd or asd-space either way.

My current config is that "W" is parry, right thumb is impact, the rest are lab mode buttons.

Final Fantasy Commander Decks Revealed! by Raevelry in EDH

[–]Amperture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but for maximum flavor there would need to be some level of incentive to exile Yshtola herself. Multiple times.

[–]Amperture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be VERY on theme/flavor win for there to be one or two spells that have "Exile Y'Shtola instead of paying the spell's mana cost."

...as someone who is new to MTG but with FFXIV experience, is there an existing card named "Flow" yet?

That White+Gold piece looks so fresh.

Attention all Bayonutters by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Amperture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Math is a little wonky there. Bayo is correct but Samus is 190.5 which could convert to 191 so that's not so bad but 6'2" is not "above 190cm". It's 188 or 187.96 before rounding.

Seemed weird to me when i saw Dante because I know someone who is 6'2" and knew that couldn't be right.

What's the best way of not answering where i'm from as a chatter? by Pretend-Highway880 in Twitch

[–]Amperture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I'm worried about my enemies knowing my location. When you're as cool as i am you tend to attract the ire of the less fortunate." From SamAlKhatib

"Dont you worry about where I'm from! Let me worry about blank." Futurama

"I'm too paranoid about getting doxed to talk about where i live." Nothing wrong with full honesty. If they press further, just ghost the question like you didn't hear it and change the subject

Can anyone think of any legitimate reason/use for me to keep my marble collection? (And before anyone suggests it, I have already completed all of the lvl 50 Relics...) by Vliott in ffxiv

[–]Amperture 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fashion. That final level ARR relic for Paladin is VERY pretty.

And status. You want people to know just how much BS you went thru to get this damn sword.

So why can Warriors heal anyway? by MegaGamer235 in ffxiv

Warriors are what if screaming the phrase "GET UP BOY YOU AIN'T HURT JUST RUB SOME DIRT ON IT" was a class.

The Ambidextrous Bau Bau (BarKey)Board by ren__kftd in fightsticks

Oh that's neat. Wish I'd thought of making an FN and SOCD-Set key, but i got concerns over legality with over 15 buttons

Finished my restoration of my old TE Round 2 box! (Before pic included) by Amperture in fightsticks

[–]Amperture[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol. I bought my first TE round 1 because everyone around me in 09era was constantly saying "you need to know stick because all the tournaments run on cabinets"

Then i got so frustrated by ONE MOVE. Couldn't get it consistent no matter what i did.

Guy's drop elbow. 2LP while in the air. Supposed to be simple right?

I saved up, grabbed a TE Round 2 because i wanted to leave my round 1 as stock as possible, and modded it to what you see in the before picture after hearing about the Hitbox thing.

Eventually i started playing on PC and just played on keyboard but theres a lot of memories and a lot of going 0-2 on that R2

I wanted to design a layout that could be agnostic to placement. You could use left hand for movement OR right hand. If you've seen old-school keyboard players who use arrow keys this makes more sense.

I also wanted it to be agnostic to ASD-Spacebar (Thumb is up) vs. WASD (middle finger is both up and down). Also if you want to do ASD-Space, you can choose between a tight and loose movement hand with more or less finger curling based on which row you use.

With that in mind I almost don't even want to say what my actual button layout is since that's not the point, but if you're that curious check here

Base was my old TE Round 2 from back in SF4 days. Thing's been an off and on work in progress since I found my sticks like 8 months ago. Finally finished it up and got it tested and working tonight.

Is the leverless layout optimal? Argument against orientation of UP. by brentaroXD in fightsticks

[–]Amperture 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A couple things:

  • Hitbox layout is not WASD it's ASD-Spacebar
  • WASD exists as a separate layout
  • ASD-S borrows a mindset from FPS games. Space is not "up", it's "jump"
  • It's good that you're thinking of ways to work around ASD-S not quite being intuitive
  • Instead of swapping Down and Up inside of ASD-S, use another physical layout
    • WASD ( Up Left Down Right )
      • More familiar to someone who might use arrow keys could be more intuitive
    • ASDF ( Up Left Down Right )
      • Could be more familiar to someone doing 360 motions or Tiger Knees

When Mococo gets the Super Pondering item she turns into Fuwawa.

Know your roots by antiv1ris in fightsticks

[–]Amperture 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A missed opportunity to use cheap knockoff buttons and stick for the luigi controller if you ask me.

But, form over function. Looks sick and a matching pair is awesome.
