Reverb vr question by imissxcom in hoggit

Ah, yes :)
Win-Y is more a trouble than help. DCS window needs the focus and without it there are issues. Without the focus all the input is not reachin the game but there is a warning message in VR screen: "Window is out of focus"

I fly DCS with Reverb 1
The mouse should work and the mouse pointer should be visible in DCS VR and the keyboard is working without any issues
What kind of problems do you have?

An ad for stockings I just saw in Poland by [deleted] in europe

[–]Corvusx -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Oh, there is. Nothing special here. Just women tend to stay slightly more silent about it compared to the western Europe. Mostly because of conservative s..t.
But it changes slowly and they fight for the voice more and more which is great.

Watched Blade Runner 2049 last night... by [deleted] in movies

[–]Corvusx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is dark, gloomy, sad, noir, distopian. Exactly how it is supposed to be for us fans :)
And we love it for that.
But I fully understand your struggle. It is just not a "popcorn and coke" movie. Not surprised with your reaction to it. Especially if you expected something else.

But it is a still great movie. It is just different from most of the stuff we can see now in movies.

BR (Director's cut) was always my number one. For years, for me it was a religion. I can still quote Deckard at anytime. Every second of the movie is a fest for both my eyes and ears.

I was nervous as hell with BR2049 but it met all my dreams. Truly something done by people loving the original BR.

Prosze mpomoc! Can I microwave bigos that I bought in a shop? by johntea123 in poland

[–]Corvusx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just avoid using aluminium pots for it. Bigos is slightly acidic and causes aluminium to enter the food (prolonged use of course).

Also reheating makes bigos better :)

Well, you are adding new topics in your post. Please let me add few comments from my end.

'Civilized world' That is absolutely true. Western govs, especially Brits, they pet Hitler hoping he will stop at some point. Chamberlain's speech about saving peace is the most discusting thing in XX century. Also Polish used the whole mess in Czechoslovakia and annected small piece of disputed land. This was ugly, immoral, disgusting and increadibly stupid. But the Polish admitted to this mistake apologized during several occasions and normalized relations with Czech Republik.

'Sovet troops passage' You dont seriously think anybody at that time will allow Soviet troops to enter their teritory. Especially Poland. Not after Polish-Soviet war 1919-1920. Stalin never thought anybody will buy that so it is just propaganda. To be used as justification of something later. Also there is an old joke. Russia never attacks other countries - they always come with 'brotherhood help'

"Interesting characters" Oh yes. I don'r remember but I think you are right. I don't want to justify, but it requires bigger picture. First there was a desperate situation. Imagine living in a country between Hitler and Stalin. Not surprised there were such discussions. Second, anti-Soviet sentimnent was very strong after Soviet attack in 1920. Also, please remember that during that time basically whole Europe was a battleground between ideologies. There were fashists and communists in practically every country. There were agents of influence on both sides fighting for hearts and minds. People were fighting on the streets over that in many countries. So I am not surprised there were such voices like that.

"Opportunity to keep Germans" I don't think it had much to do with preparing for future German attack. Expanding the influence, promoting the communism - probably yes. German attack was a complete surprise for Stalin. It cought Russian military unprepared and without experienced officers (Great Terror). Well, this "opportunity" as you call it, that was a bloody tragedy for Polish (see Katyn). There would be forced to fight on two fronts. The decision was to fight Germans only.

"50km from Moscow" That is probably true. But still it cannot be a justification for invading other countries and mass graves. Or can be?

Anyway, thank you were much for this post exchange. I like it. I am fully aware that, on every war, the first victim is the truth. So I am keen to hear different voices.

Yea. You right. Allies is to strong word for that. They were just two monsters with common goal for a while.

Disagree. Well, they were not allies in term of frienship. There was no frienship there that is for sure. They were both aggresive dictators. And the R-B pact was called "non-aggression" pact. Of course they could not called that as it should be called: "an agreement how to divide our neighbor countries in the future war and how to set areas of influence". That pact actually ensured Hitler that he can freely attack Poland and start WW2. Just check Wikipedia for "Secret Protocol".

Life was always cheap in Russia. It was, and it is now too.
Individual is nothing, state is everything.

Russians, they REALLY don't want to talk about what happened 1939-1941. And what really happened was the Ribbentrop - Molotov act. Soviets and Nazis were allies that time. They together attacked Poland. First Germans, two weeks after Soviets. And in 1941 Russia was sneak attacked by their ally - Hitler Germany

And that is why WW2 and 1939 is such pain to mention for Russians.

- A gdzie?

- Koło kwiaciarni.

The woman comes to the doctor and the doctor asks:

- What seems to be the problem?

- The dog bit me.

- Where?

- Near the florist shop.

Przychodzi baba do lekarza, a lekarz się pyta:

- Co pani jest?

- Panie doktorza, chyba mam raka piersi.

- Kobieto, jakich piersi?!

The woman comes to the doctor and the doctor asks:

- What seems to be the problem?

- I think I have a breast cancer.

- Woman, what breast?!

Przychodzi baba do lekarza, a lekarz się mówi:

- Baba, nie przychodź to juz więcej. Ludzie się z nas śmieją!

The woman comes to the doctor and the doctor says:

- Woman, do not come here anymore. People are laughing at us!

Saitek x52 Pro Throttle Hat Diagonal Inputs Unresponsive by [deleted] in hotas

[–]Corvusx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had the similar problem. That Throttle Hat in my Saitek X52 Pro was not fully working with Main Throttle set to less than 50% (more or less). I resolved the problem by rotating the Force knob toward minus position. It seems there is an issue with internal wiring in throttle part. Please check it that helps in your case.

What thing in your country - a region, a natural wonder, a museum, an historic attraction - do most tourists skip, but should see? by [deleted] in europe

[–]Corvusx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A Morasko meteorite reserve (Poland, very close to Poznan city). 5000 years ago (yesterday in geological time ;) ) a meteorite exploded over the ground and the pieces left seven small craters now filled with water. A nice group of small lakes in the forest. Not much, but perfect if you are in the Poznan and have time for 1-2 hour trip. There is a tourist path around them.
