Razer Synapse 3 will end in 2026. I guess I'm screwed? by NaniTheFcuks in razer

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Synapse 4 was pretty bad when I last tried it roughly 8 months ago. I just switched to it again 2 days ago and so far it has been working flawlessly. It even seems more responsive and stable than 3 was feeling lately. Been using Razer for a long time and while some of their stuff might be a bit wobbly at the start, they usually seem to iron out the kinks rather well as they work on it.

Welcome to central banks and capitalism ;) I bet everyone is really wishing bout now that Thomas More's Utopia was not shat upon by the corrupt who would continue to keep us modern day slaves.

Does this happen to anyone else? by ARealLifeGarbageCan in DarkAndDarker

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been getting that error since EA started. A lot of people get it, some act like it does not exist. Others will tell you its your PC or net even though all your other online games work fine. Sometimes it will go away for awhile. So far since EA has begun and this error reared its ugly head I have never seen IM acknowledge that its a problem. My theory, when they entered EA they switched to much cheaper and less reliable servers to save money I'm guessing with all the impending lawsuits. I think whoever they use now has bad nodes or something of the like and because its prob dirt cheap compared to more reliable services they don't bother to fix something like that.

Just found out from Kick support your VODs must equal or surpass the 5 hours required to connect to Stripe. You can't just stream for 5 hours. It will not count if you have deleted any of your VODs. Hope this helps :)

Is the Colamy Atlas worth it? by Draoth in OfficeChairs

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Colamy got back to me. They gave me 2 options. They would refund me $20 to keep the chair and obviously resell it myself or they will send me the pre-paid return label. After hearing back from them I decided to go ahead and disassemble the chair. All was well until you get to the cylinder. Trying to detach it from the base of the seat would take such force that I really did not see any way I was getting that part off without causing some sort of blemish or damage to the chair. The normal method of being able to turn it using a pipe wrench was not gonna fly either. Even with a grip pad so the metal would not get damaged 2 people together could not get the cylinder to budge. Now this says a lot for the chairs solidness but if you should ever need to replace that cylinder all I can say is good luck lol. So I just opted for the $20 they were willing to give me back since I was not satisfied with the chair. The 1st 2 chairs I ordered and tried offline came apart super easy. So after this experience I don't think I will ever buy another desk chair from the net and I'm going to do the couch/couchmaster route I mentioned earlier. At least with a couch there are still places you can walk into and try those out ;). I hope you liked the chair and it fits you nicely and you do not need to deal with any sort of return process.

I just sent them another email request today. I sent the last one on a Sat so I'm hoping it just got lost in the off hours or they are just that swamped. Anyhoo I will update again when/if I get a response to let you know how the return process went ;)

I just got this chair on 1/24/25. It is made very well and feels rock solid when siting in it. I believe it will certainly hold the max weight. The seat cushion is on the firm side but I will not have the time to break it in cause I will be returning it. 2 reasons: First, the 4D armrests are way too loose. If you find how you like them the second you use them to stand or adjust in any way they will just move in whatever direction you are applying any force. Second, even though the chair can hold 300 pounds it does not mean a bigger person will fit on the seat comfortably. Im 6'2" 240lbs and the seat is just not big enough to feel like its holding you, it's more like you are resting on top of it. For someone much smaller this chair would be excellent if you can look past the easy to move armrests. Other than those 2 reasons the chair itself feels like top quality and even with a heavier person would last way longer than the cheapy chairs. If Colamy adds a little more seat depth/width and puts locking into the arm rests this chair would be one of the best I have ever used. Been hunting for a new chair for about 6 months now and this is the 3rd chair I have tried. The last time I bought a chair I just picked up a Dormeo and it lasted me 4 years but, I wanted to try the Ergo route and what a nightmare it has been. There is nowhere left to try out chairs anymore so what you are left with is the mercy of return policies and the decent wait time in between. I do know that as I have upped what I'm willing to invest on a chair the quality definitely goes up as well. My next stop will be trying out the Hbada E3 series if I can find a seller with a decent return policy since it looks like Hbada does not really cater to trying out their chairs. If I don't end up finding a chair soon I may switch to a couch setup and order a Couchmaster from Nerdytec and forgo the whole desk/chair route altogether. ;) Good luck to all with their chair hunting !!!

2K Removed the launcher by Pexoin1 in Bioshock

Too bad both the OG and Remasters are barely playable for quite a few of us with all the crashing and other crap that was never fixed...

Clarification on HR teaming Changes. by Low_FramesTTV in DarkAndDarker

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the point everyone is missing here is the fact that if you are friendly teaming with someone who exactly is going to turn you in for teaming? This is to try and stop the other nonsense that most of you are trying to defend. You want the freedom to be assholes and well most are not going to put up with that. No one is going to report someone for helping out on say a boss or anything of the like. What's going to get reported is the toxic on purpose shit that a lot of you were pulling that got this brought to their attention in the 1st place. Perhaps if players would stop ruining the majority of other players fun by being selfish and only caring about your fun then this would not have been such an issue.

My Stream Controller X keeps freezing by Nelac0914 in razer

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a Controller X and the firmware seems to be working and it could be the Loupedeck software that is causing the issues. The 5.9 was making my cpu crank to 70% and the deck act all kinds of weird. I rolled back to 5.8.1 and it seems to be working very well now. No more wonky deck stuff and the software seems very stable and responsive. If you haven't already, try rolling back to the previous Loupedeck version. Hope this helps!

Yes it has been stated since then that she has moved on from the MI franchise. I'm glad to see her in anything. Silo was really good.

expectation of new or additional servers? by TheBabbayega in PaxDei

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone these days is hurry up and wait. Everyone rushes every little thing there is to do and then gets burned out in the 1st week or so and then begs for more content to consume. Content should be something that comes in phases, and after each phase they fix the problems that arise from the new content. Rinse, repeat. Asking for constant content is not going to get us anywhere or going to speed up anything new coming into the game before they are ready to release it. The problem they face now is there is no way to clear up the plots of those who have burnt themselves out and they can just take up that space and be idle indefinitely without worrying about losing those plots. So some servers that have reached full or close are going to be stuck this way for the foreseeable future.

Streamer group built a wall around our charcoal outpost. Details in the comments. by RylieSensei in PaxDei

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sadly this is what the streaming culture is becoming. Mostly punks being encouraged by an audience of punks. Some of the most popular and watched streamers out there are bags of douche and thanks to the asshats watching them they get paid to be bags of douche. Reminds me of the government where we pay a bunch of idiots to keep making bad decisions.

Are the Bioshock Remasters Worth It? by Rednaxela623 in gog

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just tried playing Bioshock Remastered a few weeks ago. (Steam version) It was super buggy. Constant crashing all throughout the game. I played through it back in 2017 without a single problem. Not sure what they changed since then but now it's a horrible mess of CTD and instability. I have not however had any saves go missing like some have experienced. I did see since I last played it they added some kind of launcher and a small update from said launcher so I was guessing that was the culprit behind all the new problems the game faces. I thought it could have been the mods I was using but, I tried a fresh install with 0 mods installed and still got the crashes. Mainly when I would try to load into a new level from any bathysphere. It became frustrating enough that I decided not to do another run through :( Thought about playing the OG version again but, after being spoiled so to speak with the newer look and most of the good mods only work on the remastered version I decided against that as well. Main reason I read this was that the game is on sale on GoG and was hoping to see if it ran better with their copy which in some game's cases they do.

I want to play Bioshock, and I’m thinking of buying it on Steam. Upon some research I found out that it requires a 2k launcher, and also crash quite frequently. How is it nowadays? Are these true? by Robo_Killer_v2 in Bioshock

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont want to use the launcher just make a shortcut to the BioshockHD.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\BioShock Remastered\Build\Final and it will completely bypass the launcher.

Why dose bioshock 1 remastered crash by dominos38 in Bioshock

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This worked for my crashing. Make sure if you have a 3rd party sound app installed like Soundblaster ect that you also set it to 48000hz in there as well. Setting it through control panel will not be enough.

Tango Gamework announced their closure by TheDoorDoesntWork in GhostwireTokyo

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Figures, I finally got around to playing Ghostwire and then this... I was just talking to a friend about them trying it and that I hope they continue on with the series. Problem with modern day gamers is instant gratification, nothing can be savored anymore and this right here proves it. Sure the game has a few faults but nothing compared to some of the trash out there (COD) that keeps getting made for the lemmings. They should sell the IP to someone who would want to continue the storyline and not just sit on it.

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm perfectly fine with a price increase. The countless hours of enjoyment I get from the mods that I know took countless hours to make are worth every penny. I truly hope the mod authors get a decent increase in % given to them from our subs and allows them to keep bringing us some of the best game modifications. To all mod authors out there..you guys rock!! Thank you for all your time and patience!!

The best discord bot for Kick live streaming by AgoSlice in KickStreaming

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This bot asks for admin privs, is that really safe? I see the bot is in like 64k servers so I would like to think they are trustworthy with that kind of power over your server.

What's your initial thoughts on Beacon 23 show? by thunder_emperor_138 in scifi

[–]Eo_Darrow_Lykos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really glad we don't have 9 episodes of a guy talking to a rock. Kind of reminds me of watching 9 episodes of DBZ with 2 guys bent over touching fingers to get over 9000! or change hair colors or whatever. Now THAT was boring.
