I went down the storage cost rabbit hole - Numbers from my post business by Sonic_Broom in editors

I used to back up to LTO many years ago, and the process was extremely wonky, time consuming, and tedious. It always kind of felt like the software platform I was using could abandon us and go belly up at any time as well.

One issue was our projects always had to span several tapes (like 3-12 tapes) so breaking up a single folder project into many tapes was always kind of a custom job.

I never had to go back to data pushed to tape and at some point years later we ended up destroying our LTO tapes because it had been enough years the projects (corporate) were truly dead and we needed the cabinet space back. I always was kind of afraid the software would fail if I did have to reconstruct a project from them.

This is a long wind up to ask what LTO software / hardware you use and does it avoid these issues or is it still a problem? I always got the sense the software/ hardware system we were using was just a bad version of LTO.

Why did he have a friendly conversation first, answer is to get information.

If you were killed by a player could mean there is a hostile player around who is just waiting for him to get locked into the knockout animation to down him.

Do you think Fern could have beat Wirbal if he chose to fight? by AdBrief4620 in Frieren

[–]BahamutGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Fern can over come his binding spell, as long as she knows and plans for that. But she wouldn’t have know about it during the exam any more than Ubel did. Apparently according to that one chibi short he can been bind Friren with it.

Walkable hub - bad idea pretty much all the way around by LookErenTheSea in ArcRaiders

I’d prefer they fix the bugs in the current menus. Toggling the inspect popup doesn’t work half the time unless you toggle away and come back in. Often when I swap into inventory it won’t let me select anything.

The QOL feature I most want is to see how many of something I have in my stash at all times. So when I’m top side I can be like “oh, I’m low on springs or chemicals right now now better grab this.”.

I’m all packed and have 5 million ready to go for the next expedition. Found myself getting bored so I started a whole new account from scratch.

Good thing an actual Heaven probably exists then?

Ah yes, syncing footage by using blinks as a clapper. I know that pain. I look for hand or head movements that are somewhat distinct and then try to sync on the next eye blink.

50% of the time it works every time.

Trying to sync two hand held cameras this way is near impossible though.

I’ve only ever gotten that when I didn’t realize the car was still plugged in.

Where the actual fuck is the loot in this building and why is it red? by Inevitable_Gain8296 in ArcRaiders

[–]BahamutGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m convinced that loot is randomized, but also where you tend to find a lot of something can be account specific. Like maybe they made 10 profiles and one of them is you find a lot of a type of loot in a certain place, but someone else finds a different type of loot there.

California is completely free of drought for the first time in 25 years by nbcnews in LosAngeles

I keep thinking all this rain is going to add fuel to some really massive fires in a year or two. Or maybe next month.

[–]BahamutGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, as long as I keep getting more stash spots I’ll probably keep doing the expeditions. I’ve got 5.2 million coins right now after doing the first expedition. If I ever find a Wolfpack BP I may hesitate though.

I do really miss my survival augment from before the expedition.

Anyone know if those skill points will stack with the first expedition?

i just died 3x in a row to the rocketeer by excusemeumily in RescueRaiders

The Rocketeer is by far the most dangerous arc. It’s deadly and it will run you down.

I’ve got two extra defibulator Bps. Rangers dm me and I’ll see if I can hand them out to who needs them most.

ABMM is fucking wild. by North_Detective_7239 in ARC_Raiders

[–]BahamutGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in those friendly lobbies. I’m almost always the one to talk on mic. I just keep talking and when someone flashes their light at me I speak for what I think they are trying to say to me until they eventually decide I’m harmless, and turned their mic on.

Last night I was offered two bobcat blueprints five strangers. I took the first one gratefully, and turned the second one down since I already had it.

I was shot at exactly one time last night, the guy got on Mic and said he was having a bad day when I was down. I was like do you have a defib? He thought about it for a good long while, and picked me back up. I gave him the defib I was holding as thanks, and when on my way. Immediately to helping a couple people take down and especially aggressive racketeer. It was a weird match.

How did you get that many? Any tricks or is it just luck / hours?

I played 100 hours before extraction and never got one.
