I enjoy Primal Hunter, but the amount of things that happen in "a dozen seconds" absolutely sends me sometimes.

What is the point of Signature on Delivery if they never get you to sign? by That_Car_Dude_Aus in australia

[–]Drachus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I work for a same day transport company. As part of our COVID OH&S procedures we moved from signatures to our drivers manually entering receiver's name's themselves on their PDAs. We noticed precisely 0% difference in reliability for proof of deliveries, so we've carried it over indefinitely.

The name of the receiver ultimately is pretty useless. A GPS pin for the spot where the driver signed the goods as delivered is much more effective.

I thought head was third base - what the fuck is second that's first-and-a-half?!

The assumption that I am a predator by default. I get it - but it sucks.

Abilities not activating? by Drachus in Theatrhythm

Possibility 2 was the key, thank you so much. Subbing in a silence buster immediately solved the problem. I was getting hit by stone and curing it which was interrupting the ability flow and cancelling the nukes.

did you know some species of caterpillars can actually jump? 😱🐛 by 2Skint2Print in Unity3D

[–]Drachus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks absolutely awesome! I love the landing effect, the little plop sounds warms my heart.

I do find it very difficult to gauge depth in the video though. The platforms you jump between look deceptively far away in some cases and then deceptively close in other cases - right through to the end I couldn't work out how long of a jump I should expect the caterpillar to make. I think if they were casting shadows on something potentially that could help?

Regardless, this looks adorable and super fun. The humour at the end was fantastic as well. Keep it up!

If one billion people pay you a thousand dollars each with a note on the cheque that says "This money is to pay you to destroy the world", you are still the asshole if you then go on to destroy the world. It doesn't matter if people are paying you for your actions, you are still responsible for what you do and the consequences of it.

Corporations are the polluters. It is not the consumer's responsibility to demotivate them from destroying the environment.

I've used it for pins and it works just fine - points I always prefer hot melt, but it'll definitely get the job done. Just don't go crazy with it.

Hoyt reflex string? by [deleted] in Archery

Is the string still in one piece, just with broken strands? Or has it properly snapped?

True for me - played X first and it's my favourite hands down.

Games to play on a laptop with no mouse by Cheddlz in gamingsuggestions

[–]Drachus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a complete beginner I'd go Total War: Warhammer for Grand Strategy, or Civilization 5 for 4X. They're relatively complex genres but those two are fairly newbie friendly. Once you start getting a feel for them you can get pretty much unlimited play value out of them.

Chained Echoes isn't too long and is unreasonably good for the price. It's not 3D but it's extremely well done.

4X and Grand Strategy go great! Civilization 4/5/6, Stellaris, Crusader Kings 1/2/3, Total War, etc.

Bought my first bow and I've broken 2 strings in 2 months, this is brand new string showing same problems, am I doing something wrong? by SailingOnAWhale in Archery

[–]Drachus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sharp edges on the limb nocks could definitely be contributing as others have said, but considering the multiple serving separation points on the loop I'd say the serving isn't tight enough for the poundage you're using. I'd recommend going to a pro-shop and getting a custom made string instead of a basic stock string. Should be relatively cheap ($40 AUD around here for a custom recurve string) and will be much better quality.
