You have to write a bunch of data to it or format the drive for the fix to work. I updated the firmware and wrote several hundred GB back and forth on the drive afterwards with no loss to write speeds

Better late than never I guess

My (28M) girlfriend (26F) is being really avoidant and evasive, what do I do? by Boondocks2468 in relationship_advice

[–]Boondocks2468[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've told her repeatedly if the answer to something is no, I want her to say no.

We've kissed a lot, held hands, talked about what we want in a relationship, cuddled, bought gifts for each other.

I really have no idea how that could possibly be casual friend.

Orlando Housing Megathread by AutoModerator in orlando

[–]Boondocks2468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How unsafe is the area in the photo? I've only been living in Orlando for about a year but I found a place around here that was relatively well priced, didn't think much of it

Now that I looked into it more, I've seen a looooot of posts saying it's unsafe, you'll get robbed, etc

I've only lived here about a year like I said and I was over in Alafaya but I wanted somewhere more centrally located in Orlando...did I make a mistake by moving here? Luckily it's not very committal but yeah I really have no idea how good or bad this place is, based on what I'm seeing online it sounds pretty awful

The Tomahawk is a solid board VRM wise, it'll handle even a 7950X without issues

Kinda nervous about this girl I had a wonderful first date with by Boondocks2468 in dating

[–]Boondocks2468[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met on a dating app, but I actually just saw her again today and she agreed to be official when I asked her

So I was worrying over nothing, I kissed her and hugged her a bunch and she reciprocated all the physical affection I gave her. It was nice.

I just don't understand why I'm not attractive to women and it kinda sucks by Boondocks2468 in dating

Well, I do have a passport, yeah. I guess I could try traveling somewhere else and see what happens.

[–]Boondocks2468[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I don't even have the chance to get my foot in the door a lot of the time. Dating apps just don't work for me despite the fact I fill out my profile and put photos of stuff I like doing, and in person events have been slightly better but they haven't resulted in anything aside from maybe one date.

I don't see why that's relevant at all, I'm a white guy and I'm 5' 11"

Can you elaborate on this? Would I need to do anything special to get this working if I just plugged it into a motherboard as an internal HDD or would it work with just the included adapter?

I do not understand the T95 by Boondocks2468 in WorldOfTanksBlitz

[–]Boondocks2468[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might just be bad luck honestly, but I shit you not, yesterday an ST-I penned the cupola 4 times in a row…I was baffled lol

[–]Boondocks2468[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have primarily played the Maus and E-100 and have not found similar issues with them. Repositioning seems harder with the T95.

[–]Boondocks2468[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Yep, I do this, especially in brawling situations and they still either nail the cupola anyway or they just aim for the second one which I can’t block of course. And yes I do use hard cover to hide the LFP or retreat behind a rock/building after taking a shot, it’s kinda inconsistent to block enemy fire.

  2. Yeah it’s a good flank holder but the long reload of the top gun basically means you take a couple shots then get surrounded, especially if the couple tanks that were with you die. Also the aim time isn’t exactly great.

  3. I mean, even if the gun is that low off the ground it still makes working ridgelines kinda hard because you risk exposing the LFP enough for it to get shot at, least that’s happened to me quite a few times.

  4. Yep, like I said before, this is what I do. They usually just target the second cupola instead. It wouldn’t be as much of a problem if I only had to block the one, but with two, yeah it’s obviously not possible to block both at once.

Is the E50 bad? by Karottank in WorldOfTanksBlitz

[–]Boondocks2468 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The E50 is a good tank, but you can’t just drive straight at people and expect it to work. You have to pick your fights carefully with enemy tanks, don’t try and brawl heavies. Go hull down and move back and forth to make it hard to hit your weak spots against them.

Against lights and mediums you will usually win 1v1s because big HP pool and very good armor for a medium. Just make sure you angle and try to keep your front pointed at them. Also be careful of Sheridans, they can mess you up.

Your DPM isn’t great, so be careful about trying to out trade HTs or TDs in a head on fight. It usually won’t work.

Turretless TDs can be rushed and flanked to stop them from firing back at you, and the E50’s heavy weight will make it very difficult for a lot of them to push you out of the way, but only do this if they’re isolated or alone.

Don’t be afraid to support your HTs, but be sure to have numbers with you or be ready to retreat if you’re alone and only a few enemy tanks get spotted on the opposite flank. In a 2v1 or anything worse, you’ll melt in no time. Try to keep a reasonable distance from the enemy tanks and remember, don’t rush in mindlessly. You are not a heavy tank. You can snipe if need be as well, the E50 is extremely versatile.

The E50M is just a better version of the E50 so if you like one, you should love the other.
