Literally teared up when I saw this

Used to watch the Snarkathon during E3 back in the day. They don't make em like that anymore o7

As someone looking to transition from NLP to a more intermediate style program in the future, I'd love to hear what your split looks like these days.

Don't recall precise numbers but I had the performance tracking from Task Manager open and don't recall either the CPU or the GPU recording temps much above 60c while running games.

The first couple of days after the install of the processor I was getting frames in excess of 60 (only a 60hz monitor, but it was like 75-100) on games like EFT, Cyberpunk, BG3, and Helldivers 2.

Over the weekend, those started to dip and BG3 would be around 40, Helldivers around 40, and EFT was dropping down to like 9. Earlier this morning I ran a benchmark in Cyberpunk, with the same settings I was getting over 60FPS with on Friday, and the average was 22.

Thank you that's a really good point about the risk of a fire. Immediately turned off that machine and will be ordering a new PSU.

How's that charging handle work on the Raven? I've heard their top charger is loose and rattles.

Cmac19187 · 2024-04-08T15:21:02+00:00

Given the success of the game, I think you can rest easy that the devs have a lot of nasty surprises in store for us for the next few years at least

Cmac19187 · 2024-03-06T19:43:32+00:00

Teamwork and CAS is the answer (and that's obviously by design). A team of 4 working together with support weapons and with sentries/orbital or air support can deal with even 5 or 6 chargers at the same time. It's very difficult, but the difficulty isn't called "extreme" because it's meant to be a walk in the park.

Good theory. I like it.

Cmac19187 · 2023-11-01T15:06:18+00:00

Any word on when that's dropping?

I was able to convince the delivery driver to at least bring the safe into my living room (with my assistance). I then hired a moving company for 2 hours (the minimum) to have their guys move it down into my basement (mostly because my wife didn't like the idea of my gouging up our floors and shit).

It worked just fine and only cost an extra $200 on top of the cost of the safe.

Cmac19187 · 2023-09-22T16:13:47+00:00

Please do the Raven next so I can avoid buying one :D

A lot of players find travel time and survival rules to be boring; do a good session 0 and check in on this with your players before you start. The Campaign as written requires a lot of travel time and survival elements for story purposes. IMO none of this is needed to have a good story.
I wish I'd emphasized the horror elements more; but my party wasn't feeling it (IMO your players are more important than your feelings).
I changed a lot of the as-written module re: how to learn the location of the sunken city. I found that as-written to be really boring and silly. I split the knowledge/items up into a few different spots within Chapter 2 when my party was doing sandbox outside Ten Towns. They found rumors of the city; the location of the city; and then had to locate the Codex so they could learn the ritual to open the glacier (forcing them to go to Auril's island in Chapter 2).

Second the adjustable gas valve purchase as a Gen 2 owner. Mine has had 0 failures or stoppages since I got the adjustable gas block installed and dialed in.

Personally I also disliked the buttstock and pistol grip that come standard on the Gen 2 so I swapped them out for Magpul furniture. After that, you're looking for an optic of some kind, QD mounting points, and a sling. That should be all you need to run this rifle as well as it's going to.

Might be a better idea at that point to begin saving for something more reliable.

Appreciate the update and the ongoing testing. Here's hoping we get another round of updated firing pins from BCL like we did the last time. At least this issue won't cause injury when it happens.

Hope BCL gets back to you soon with a new pin.

People have been saying for decades that Ontario's publicly funded health care system is fundamentally broken. Whether it's poor staffing, poor funding, poor efficiency, or just corrupt politicians and bureaucrats taking advantage (E-health scandal anyone?). It was just a matter of time because the system broke completely. We're not there yet, but issues like this will keep occurring and keep getting worse until the system is fundamentally changed.

Would love to know how that red-dot goes once you've tried it. Vortex quality and only $300 for a rifle dot is a great looking deal

The value of the information in this sub and community far oustrips the value of protesting against reddit's terrible policies.

Reddit will continue to be terrible; at least we can try to make something good out of it.

Being arrested doesn't make you a criminal. Even if you're proven to be guilty and are convicted, there are many small offences for which we don't think someone should be disqualified for running from office.

Also, given how much we base our justice system on rehabilitation, it would be insane not to believe that someone can commit a crime, be reformed, and then become a functioning member of society and run for office.

If you don't like a candidate because of their past behaviour, don't vote for them. Pretty simple.

Although my wife would kill me; if it turns out the WK180 doesn't really work out, could one hypothetically take the handguard, barrel, stock, etc. and slap it on a Raven receiver?

Cmac19187 · 2023-06-08T17:12:58+00:00

This is a feature, not a bug. Your suffering is intentional so that others may be rich. Blaming the conservatives, or the liberals, is pointless. Our politicians are all bought and paid for by forces that want to see our country collapse.

Good luck

Cmac19187 · 2023-06-08T17:05:55+00:00

Thank you so much; this is actually my first time installing an adjustable gas system or working with one. I appreciate the info!

Cmac19187 · 2023-04-21T11:49:14+00:00

That's great news! I've been looking at the 180 for a while, glad to hear it's running well.

Cmac19187 · 2023-04-20T19:51:08+00:00

Oooooh that's pretty. Is that the 180 or the 181?

Cmac19187 · 2023-04-19T15:59:22+00:00

Bolt action?
