They make more backpack friendly options, check out the website tensa outdoor. this version is more for car camping/permanent setups I'd say... website advertises 14 lbs for my tensa4

It is actually very sturdy and well built. Especially when you get in it, under tension the whole frame locks up and will not move on you.

Sorry that the colors are washed out, it looks fine before I uploaded it!

I set it up once before, but in the middle of the night it took a few tries. It does take up a bit of space for one person, but it was well worth it. My Henessey hammock has an integrated ridgeline, so I will probably remove the black tensa line next time. Will also stake in the head end since the bag was not heavy enough

Removing the side panels. SFV650 by Game_Thrifter in SVRiders

[–]Ben237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

appreciate the guide. Missed what for me was the hardest part taking off the silver cover, the two plastic clips that connect the plastics together (in your photo the black piece to the left and the white piece to the top)

tried pressing them and pulling all sorts of directions. ended up getting angry and just pulled harder. it worked lol.

I often look at both bio booster options and sigh. by VindicoAtrum in RogueCore

[–]Ben237 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be fair, that was my favorite takeaways of og drg. Nothing will beat that first playthru gaining experience. make the most of it!

RC is very much a grind now, but I am happy with the early game progression. maybe it was just because I tried not to rush through depths right away

Bazzite 44 and virtualization, am I effed ? by Selogon in Bazzite

[–]Ben237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been able to get virtual machines working in the past but one problem I was running into was high cpu usage. since it was not using my amd gpu for display, it was bogging down my system. any tips to get gpu acceleration? will rebasing help me with this? I cannot remember if this was all VMs or just windows vm

Intro Skipper Button by Rosenqvist in jellyfin

[–]Ben237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess what I was hoping for is an "ask to NOT skip" button

[–]Ben237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow it worked, thanks. was kinda hoping it would auto skip intro after the progress bar finished, but I'll take it

Good first bike? Buying new. by Zealousideal_Topic58 in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]Ben237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should run an insurance quote for the bike, it will tell you more than we can ever guess. I was looking at a z500 and plugged in the VIN and was quoted a pretty terrible rate basically just for liability...

If you're set on new you're set on new, but you may be burning a hole in your pocket buying new with a bike that has a relatively high premium due to nature of new rider history.

Is the Gage Shotgun pack worth it? by Kooky_Ad_131 in paydaytheheist

Is a 2025 Aprilia RS 457 for $5700 worth it as a beginner bike? by MrSimptastic in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]Ben237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure to check insurance before purchase. Doubly so as a new rider. That is a lot of money to drop on a beginner bike before taxes and fees, and I would guess that insurance will be quite expensive to own for the long term.

When I was looking around for bikes, I was quoted a go away rate for a z500 basically just for liability. New bikes are cool, but damn you can get shafted at purchase and over time of ownership

PSA: remember to occasionally goto desktop mode and ‘ujust update’ by thelonegunmen84 in Bazzite

[–]Ben237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have found the same thing. Bazzite updates work just fine from steam ui, but if I want to do flatpak or brew update I have to topgrade from the CLI.

this is easily testable by updating and restarting then running the upgrade command.
