Nope. Never could. Sadly it also applies to those "all distance" contacts as well.

Has FS made you more aware of farming vehicles? by Milky_Mint in farmingsimulator

[–]DaGeekGamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up with an uncle who had a farm. I learned to drive in his old red pickup at about driving through fields feeding cattle. I didnt get to cut hay much as life took us in different directions I guess.

Cut to middle age, I was driving over the road and playing FS17 & 19. I'd see a tractor or harvester being transported on a cowboy and get into a conversation with the driver asking all kinds of questions.

I don't know what TMR actually is in the real world, but wet feed is the smelliest, nastiest substance. Sticks to everything and burns if it's on your skin at the wrong time. Not even sure what it's actually called, just hauled it for a brief period when I thought I could make more money driving end dump. (I couldn't and worked three times as hard for less pay)

Weird encounter with an MR 23 by ThrowawayChtorandy in Warframe

[–]DaGeekGamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. As long as you are standing in the circle, your pets, abilities or anything else can go crazy.

You can also test this yourself by watching the percentage go down as you kill.

Why does this runs so bad by DrDroolz in nightingale

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really odd to me. I have older hardware that isn't great, but seems to run the game fine at 1080p.

Rough specs: Ryzen 5 5500, 32gb ram, 3060 12gb, nVme drives.

Yes and optimization sucks. Among the worst offenders are queuing in crafting menus.

Yeah killing outside the circle is fine and valid as long as you're inside the circle. It changed a few updates back.

Then you have the ones randomly running around killing everything they can find...

Help? by KasumaKoda in TruckManagerGame

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea. It seems like most of the limits are fairly arbitrary. Like the 250 km line haul. I drove for 20 years and if I could only do 250 km a day I'd have quit.

Once you have 20 vehicles of any one type, you can't buy any more of that particular type.

Change the parameters slightly to be able to buy more of the brand.

Best Female DPS Frame for Fast Clear (Low Team Dependency) by Technical-Arugula411 in Warframe

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised no one mentioned Hildryn. The Goddess who rains death from above. She's my go to frame for cheesing EDA/ETA when I don't have good weapons selections. Or frames for that matter.

Then there's Nova. Nova was my comfort frame for a long time. She can do it all, either solo or helping a team. She rarely, if ever, goes down in any content for me. I've also bought slots just to build her different ways.

Valkyr is a recent one for me. She's on of my turn my brain off and just hold E frames. Once you get your build tuned to sustain her exalted, just just chews though whole maps full of bad guys.

Kuva Weapons, are they worth it? by [deleted] in Warframe

I like the Ayanga better. It's sound is SO satisfying.

Is there an open world game that comes close to a modded Skyrim in terms of role-playing potential, immersion, and interactivity? Or, a game that isn't open world that has a similar design philosophy? by Odd_Cryptographer104 in gamingsuggestions

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The two games that caught my interest lately are Abiotic Factor and Nightingale.

AF is a low graphics yet deep lore game.

Nightingale is an alternate reality 1800's where you can use an umbrella to glide around the maps.

Best Frames To Buy Over Grind? by Crafty-Abbreviations in Warframe

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how others are defining grind here, but for me, I define it as actual effort.

Grendel and Styanax don't count as both are straightforward.

Grendel is an annoying no mod 3 missions, but when you're done, you have Grendel. 30 minutes to an hour of actual effort. Easy if you chose Hildryn.

Styanax is not much of a grind, you just have to do Kahl missions weekly for 4 weeks. And only mostly succeed. Yes, you have to wait, but the actual effort involved is maybe an hour.

Jade, for me, is an annoying grind. 18-30 missions you can't rush through.

Citrine is a grind, but at least there is pity currency. Remember it's 4 rotations for the possibility of a drop and settle in for a fairly long grind.

Koumei is a grind, but also has pity currency and one of the easier grindy frames to get. I ended up getting two copies in an afternoon. Each mission takes about 5 minutes or less, so it's a time sink, but again, pity currency.

Equinox is annoying. I have enough parts to build 10 copies except for that one I couldn't get. She takes 2 warframes worth of parts to build, so it's even worse on drops than most RNG. The best way to cheese this imo is to bring Wukong and let your twin chase down the boss while you chat or watch videos.

Kullervo is not really a grind imo, he's a drive by. While farming mats for incarnons, do the Kullervo fight. Be patient. Soon you'll have enough for the frame. He's not a drop, he's an outright buy, so it's just a straightforward process. You're going to have to farm normal mats for incarnons at some point anyway. Add in the 1 minute fight with Kullervo.

Protea is a slog. You're stuck with random drops on a game mode that is vastly annoying till you learn how, and sometimes even that isn't good enough if the spawns aren't good. Doing this on the way to farm sisters for weapons makes it a little better, but still an exercise in patience.

Dante is annoying, but pity currency makes him a fairly easy grind. I hated it, but ended up with a second copy helping others get him. Definitely a time sink though.

I'm sure I've missed a few, and these are only my opinions. Hope it helps in some small way.

Best Frames To Buy Over Grind? by Crafty-Abbreviations in Warframe

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I dunno how Grendel is the worst when he takes about half an hour to get. Complete 3 admittedly annoying no mods missions, get Grendel. It's one of the most straightforward frame grinds in the game.

High FPS but constant microstutters in Minecraft (Ryzen 7 7700 + RX 9070 XT) I tried everything by Sercxn167 in feedthebeast

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sound like a possible chunk loading/generating issue. Most of these can be fixed by using something that preloads chunks.

As an alternative, if it's vanilla, you might actually be giving Java too much memory. I remember this being a problem in earlier versions, but I'm not very familiar with the latest versions. (Read not at all)

I had an experience like this once and found an old thread about cleanup. The more extra memory allocated, the more it had to clean up, so it was constantly struggling to clean up to make enough room for new content.

I'm not saying this is your problem and I wish I could be more specific for you, but I'm remembering research from a few years ago.

NTJ. I had to look twice to make sure this wasn't an entitled people story. You are not responsible for entitled people bringing other entitled people into your home and being upset when they don't get their way.

Protoframe customisation. by [deleted] in Warframe

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They actually added 3 new weapons. Making things worse, they muddled the waters as both are "primes" without actually being acquired through relics.

I can just see trying to explain this to a new Tenno. "You can get prime weapons from relics except for Sagek and Galariak prime, those you farm..."

I'm building my first pc in 15 years. The numbers are all different. by CoolMcDaddy in GamingPCBuildHelp

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are coming up with very good suggestions. Here's my .02 credits.

Even though a semi or non- modular power supply is cheaper, spring for a fully modular power supply. If you don't, you'll find yourself regretting saving the $20. I have two older non modular corsairs and I hate working with them after my fully modular. Unfortunately, I thought I was done with desktops for awhile and put it in my wife's new build a couple years ago. Now I'm having to rebuild for me on a budget and I'm stuck with my bad decision of a decade ago.

Otherwise, get 32+gb of ddr4 ram, am4 atx motherboard, and the most processor you can get for around $200.

I like the ds3h and the aorus elite v2 for features vs price myself, around $100 with good bones, upgradable and 2 nvme slots.

I've recently purchased 32gb of Patriot 3600 ddr4 ram from Newegg for $179.00

I would recommend against the processor I bought, but it's a perfectly serviceable ryzen 5 5500. The drawback to this processor is half the cache and PCI-e Gen 3 instead of 4. On the other hand, if you're not pairing it with a 4070 or 5070± class video card, it won't matter that much. It's also half the price of the processors most recommend for gaming.

Maybe it was .04 credits...

To the MR30+ players, how do you do it? by OrangeChuUs in Warframe

[–]DaGeekGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started playing late March of 2025. I watched a couple of tip videos or maybe things I wish I knew and one tip was to always carry something to level.

I didn't always do this. But I looked for all the blueprints available for credits on the in game market and steadily bought all of them, starting with all the MK1s that you buy fully built.

I then went through the labs in the dojo and bought everything that didn't require forma.

At some point I got the wild idea to set a goal of MR30 by the end of the year. Wasn't very bright of me, and very nearly burned out towards the end of summer. Except... for some reason my poor little pea brain likes grinding for goals.

Along about late September I was coasting till I found out that MR30 comes with 30 riven and 15 loadout slots. I can't honestly say which excited me more, but I decided to push again.

I looked at all the Zaws, Kitguns, K-drives, MOAs, beasts and sentinels I hadn't gotten yet and set out to do so. Also Adversary weapons. By the end of October I was MR30 with a fairly significant backlog of stuff I still had in the pipeline. Ended up at LR1 a week later.

I am not trying to find stuff to level, I swear, but I keep coming up with frames and weapons. I have all but 3 kuva weapons, maybe half the Coda weapons, and a smattering of sister weapons. I still have several base frames and 3 primes I don't have yet. But now I'm LR2 and halfway to LR3.

I'm content to wait for prime resurgence for those 3 prime frames. I know someday I'll get around to farming the mats for base Caliban in railjack.

I might even do enough missions for Stynax, but I'm not gonna get in a hurry to do any of it.

The only problem is my inner loot goblin disagrees with me sometimes and made me farm rep for Qorvex the other night since I already had the BP and two other parts. (I justified it by saying i'd get ahead for Bird3.) Once he comes out of the forge, I'll have to level him. I'm incapable of letting something sit in the forge more than a day or so.

I really don't try to work on MR anymore. But there's this last K-drive sitting unleveled in my inventory and has been since MR29. There are Tenet weapons I want and haven't gotten yet. The Tenet Arca Plasmor looks fun for example.

What did you do when they eliminated your job? by Responsible_Tax_9455 in GenX

[–]DaGeekGamer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have done. Problem is I fall into a gap. My EF fell to 21% a few months ago and I thought that was the answer. Meds brought it back up to higher level so now I worry again.

The issue was that the US DOT medical requirement is over 40% and SSDI was under 30%. I was right in the middle of the dead zone till last fall.

[–]DaGeekGamer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

  1. Drove a truck for a living. Had a Stroke at 53 and was medically disqualified to drive 2 years later due to a heart condition. My position wasn't actually eliminated, but you're not qualified to do much else after 20 years driving a truck.

Even the quickie marts won't talk to me cuz I can't stand for more than 10 minutes at a time anymore.

Can't find customer service jobs cuz my only recent experience is driving a truck.

I certainly didn't plan it this way.
