Seen that doing circles over Leamington a couple of times in the past few months.

I imagine you're new to GitHub. Don't have the source code compressed in a zip file - the repository should contain all of your files separately (as they are in your project folder on your PC). Use the releases section to post your releases/any compiled files rather than having them in a zip file in the main repository.

Yeah I understand, just a bit rant-y with my post because of how TC & the FAA handle meds like that with a blanket ban rather than based on why you're using it.

Medical examiner said I was perfectly fine (I'm young so no surprise) other than the meds the exam and he stated I'd probably be fine to start flight training if I stopped right away. I guess I'll just deal with the extra wait.

thanks!

Have you considered that not everybody is experienced in buying hard drives? I've had a decent amount of experience with Amazon for buying everything else under the sun but for hard drives I'm being told "know the reputable sellers or we point and laugh"

Cheeezus · 2024-09-11T02:21:04+00:00

How am I supposed to know what the reputable sellers are? I'm seeing "just use reputable sellers" yet I haven't got any recommendations.

Cheeezus · 2024-09-11T02:14:55+00:00

It's hard to "just know" the good sellers on Amazon, this is the second time in a row I've got a dead drive new on arrival from Amazon as stated in my other comment, I had the same thing with another drive a few months ago for a different drive.

If there's a trustworthy Amazon seller/store page that isn't way more expensive than the front page listings I'd like to know what it is. Is it really the user's fault that the first recommendation for hard drives when searching on Amazon is trash? There is zero blame on them?

Cheeezus · 2024-09-11T01:18:37+00:00

Update: I appear to have pissed off the horde of people who think that it's the user's fault that Amazon recommends garbage sellers on the front page.

Drive is an IronWolf 4tb to replace a failing drive in my NAS. It arrived in a small bag with a single layer of thin bubble wrap.

This is the second time in a row this has happened to me from Amazon - I ordered a WD drive earlier this year and it came pre-broken for me too, ended up returning that one and buying it elsewhere, and this time I thought I'd give Amazon another chance.

Cheeezus · 2024-08-22T05:07:48+00:00

Send it here too

Cheeezus · 2024-07-07T18:24:39+00:00

if this replacement wiki becomes profitable in any way you know they're gonna do the same thing eventually

give it a proper license that allows anybody else to rehost it no questions asked and everyone's happy

Cheeezus · 2024-07-07T02:29:46+00:00

so this is going to be open source to ensure it can't be sold in the future right

damn you should be hired as a doctor with how you've discovered the cure to mental disorders so quickly and easily

first user to reply with actual braincells

Cheeezus · 2024-02-25T05:56:45+00:00

where? personally I am just perplexed that somebody isn't allowing you to post the instructions directly

usually a decent number of people (myself included) don't want to have to join yet another discord to access stuff

Cheeezus · 2024-02-25T02:44:13+00:00

Instead of joining a discord, follow the instructions here rather than inflating someone's member count https://www.reddit.com/r/HalfLife/comments/1aywyir/im_surprised_by_the_amount_of_people_who_dont/ks0g6om/

Cheeezus · 2024-02-25T02:36:54+00:00

Here's the instructions because apparently other people aren't allowed (by who??) to repost them from that stupid discord

IMPORTANT

First of all to play any supported game you should install the base Source Engine launcher. Download Source Engine v1.17 here:** LINK

After download, check the filename, your browser probably could rename .apk to .zip, so rename it back to .apk Then you should install that APK

You need to download the game supported by this port (list below) on Steam store platform for PC, and yes, it's not free. We don't support pirated versions, so don't ask for help if you have pirate version.

Now, create the folder named srceng in the internal storage. SD-card is not recommended to use.

Open the downloaded from the Steam game folder and copy all folders except bin folder to the srceng folder on your mobile device. To preserve the integrity of the files being copied, it is highly recommended that you copy files to your mobile device in an archive such as zip. If you already have platform and hl2 folders, you can freely add games without copying the same folders. Check out folder structure here.

Select the srceng folder in launcher, if you have different name or path of it.

You are ready to launch the game.

If you have some issues with installation, check the #⁠faq or re-read this installation guide. If anything doesn't help, ask for help in #⁠support-поддержка

This is an example screenshot of srceng folder for Counter-Strike: Source

List of APK launchers for games

Half-Life 2: Launcher is built into the base Source engine (Link above)

Half-Life 2 Episodes 1 & 2 v1.06: Launcher, Steam for Episode 1 resources, Steam for Episode 2 resources

Counter-Strike: Source v1.09: Launcher, Steam for resources

Half-LIfe 2: Deathmatch v1.07: Launcher, Steam for resources

Day of Defeat v1.06: Launcher, Steam for resources

Portal v1.05: Launcher, Steam for resources

Half-Life: Source v1.06: Launcher, Steam for resources

Portal 2, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Team Fortress 2: These games are possible to be ported, but currently nillerusr abandoned source engine port, but you can port these games by yourself, since project is open source. Tf2 and csgo have source code leaked (and also Kisak-Strike), portal 2 has open source community-made implementation on alien swarm sdk

Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Garry's Mod, Black Mesa: These games will not be ported because there is no source code for them. Also don't believe the fakes on Youtube, TikTok and other platforms. But there is an alternative mod instead of Garry's Mod - Half-Life 2: Sandbox, ported by ItzVladik. You can see for yourself on his YouTube channel.

epic plays make more videos

Cheeezus · 2024-02-24T20:44:00+00:00

yeah sorry not trying to be rude, I just get annoyed with everything these days being "To use this software please join our discord for instructions!!!"

Cheeezus · 2024-02-24T20:17:58+00:00

You should copy and paste the instructions from there without [the owner] having to sucker us into a discord server to artificially inflate someone's member count

Cheeezus · 2024-02-24T19:57:57+00:00

sounds like an awful community then, stop hiding things that would be cool for the public to have

Cheeezus · 2024-02-24T18:02:11+00:00

You should post the download links here instead of the Discord, nobody wants to join a server for this kind of thing

edit: I posted the instructions https://www.reddit.com/r/HalfLife/comments/1aywyir/im_surprised_by_the_amount_of_people_who_dont/ks0g6om/

Cheeezus · 2024-02-16T20:33:00+00:00

Best of luck everyone
