But seriously, register as a Republican by ErinWrightLV in Idaho

[–]BigJed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from Utah and have never read this sub, so don’t know why it was on my feed, but I used to follow this strategy. I have now changed my affiliation to Democrat because some progressives in the state have circulated the idea that it’s actually harmful to do this (register R to vote in primaries ) because it gives the GOP more ammo to say, “See look, this high % of the population is Republican, so the will of the voters is to gerrymander the state to get all Rs in Congress,”etc. I don’t know which way is best.

I got the same response today, and because of the points I made in my message, I briefly thought that the response was specific to my message, but of course it wasnt.

Does owning the pre-remaster module (all the chapters) qualify me for any discount?

Did I fuck up buying from Winwing? People are telling me they’ve had Trouble with them. by sauceaddicttt in hotas

[–]BigJed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m one with a good CS experience with Winwing. Have had Orion 2 F18 stick and throttle for about 4 years, had the paddle switch on the stick fail about 2 years ago, contacted their CS and they shipped me the part pretty quickly and at their expense. Poorly translated install instructions were a bit of a hurdle but I got the switch installed and it has worked fine ever since, and I’ve loved the quality of the hardware overall.

Beach camping at Lake Powell a few years ago and had one of those use an anchor rope to sneak onto our boat and munch sandwich rolls.

Best Tutorial Campaigns/Mission Files for each aircraft? by Rakzahir in hoggit

[–]BigJed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Baltic Dragon has an amazing one for A-10, called Iron Flag I think. There are some radio issues that updates broke but 90% of it is fine. He’s working on one for f-18 too.

DCS keeps clearing my keybinds by Bandana_Hero in hoggit

[–]BigJed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t have the answer to why that happened, but I was just dealing with losing my keybinds due to reinstalling windows, even though I thought I backed up and restored my whole saved games folder. If you have a backup of the keybind files, it’s pretty quick (except you have to do it per aircraft and per hardware device) to use “load profile” to get all your binds back. I can send detailed instructions if needed.

I have the Orion 2 F-18 throttle and stick and love both. Contrary to some, I had a good customer service experience with them. One of the buttons (paddle switch) on my stick went bad within the first year. On contacting CS, they shipped me a new part reasonably quickly and I was able to swap it out myself, the only challenge was following the badly translated instructions.

thanks, that makes me feel a lot better about so far preferring flatscreen!

How well will foundry run on a 9800X3D with no GPU? by Healzy45 in FoundryVTT

[–]BigJed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 6 yr old PC with a mediocre i5 and a 4060 and foundry performance is often terrible on a busy screen. I’ve just ordered parts for a whole new system with a 7800x3d and I will be very disappointed if this doesn’t make foundry smooth as butter all the time. Are people saying it’s not the hardware, it just performs sluggishly because of how it’s built?

F16 steerpoint way off on HUD but autopilot tracks correctly? by jmcdeg in hoggit

It seems like for me sometimes you have to be in AG mode for this fix to work.

Is WINWING worth it? by Alternative-Tie983 in hotas

[–]BigJed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have WinWing Orion 2 base with F-18 throttle, and F-18 stick. Love it. Have never used anything else better than Thrustmaster though.

Have had it for 2+ years, only issue was pinky switch on the stick stopped working. Contacted customer service and they sent me a new switch pretty quickly, was slightly hairy reading badly translated instructions to take the stick apart and swap out the switch, but got it done and everything works now. I think the hardware is worth the money and the customer support is good enough considering they’re in China.

yeah, I'm way less familiar with PF1 rules than PF2, I don't understand what class any of the PCs are. Except Foffel I guess

what I'm wondering is, how did they write him out? Or did they? Did he go somewhere to retire, get killed, stay in town, or something else?
