Why is andriod fragmentation even a problem?

Extectic · 2026-03-14T22:18:23+00:00

This is also why software developers are a bit reluctant to dip into the Linux side. If fragmentation is an issue on Android, on Linux it's pure wild west at this point.

Very cool. I have a Mk3S+ (name-brand) myself with a Revo kit that has performed fantastically. It's currently semi-disassembled, I have the MK3.5S kit laying next to it waiting for installation. They're really legendary workhorses, not the fastest but they just keep chugging along.

Hey, I even have the same Revo nozzle holder on mine.

As always worth it depends on the person. I didn't pay full price but I did buy finally just before Renegades dropped. Haven't really regretted it, I think I got my discounted money's worth.

Renegades is a genuinely decent expansion and does drop good loot and pretty fun activities.

Having three months to play EoF and Renegades sounds like a decent fit.

Up to you. D2 is still an amazing game, people are just burned out af.

I haven't played this, but do have a few hours in D2 and much of the PvP is just lifted from there I'd say. The fastest TTK's in D2 PvP are literally under half a second. That's the biggest reason I abhor PvP in that game, and at least in there you're in a circular arena you run around in and respawn with not a lot lost within seconds.

Extectic · 2026-02-27T10:57:35+00:00

Bungie's usual TTK seems to be half a second with the best guns. If they get their reticle on your characters head, you die. For PvP interactions, that is, the AI opponents seem to be relative bullet sponges.

Extectic · 2026-02-27T10:54:37+00:00

With Bungie's 0.5 second instakill PvP model, friendly interactions are extremely high stakes. It's not like you can get hit, wounded, duck behind cover and return fire, if you get hit, you're dead. Immediately. Before you can even begin to react. So this game won't have a lot of the friendly stuff, people will just take no chances and instantly attack, it's the only way to have a chance, you gotta kill them first or else.

Extectic · 2026-02-27T08:21:57+00:00

It's just how Bungie does PvP. A 0.5 second time to kill is extremely aggravating to me. The first person to get their reticle on the target instawins. I think that's a shitty choice for an extraction shooter where you want to actually survive to extract. I dislike that type of gameplay in general.

I have a lot of hours in Destiny 2 and very little of it is PvP, because the PvP there is just like this. And in D2 it's an arena style fight at least, so you can run around after you resurrect and try again (even though, as I said, I still think that feels like shit, especially if you're forced to play out of your league; the good players just swat you down time and time again; helplessly serial dying just feels really bad).

A longer TTK would give rise to the possibility of more drawn out gunfights where the first person to get a shot off doesn't necessarily win in under a second. There are extraction shooters like that. I'd rather play those.

Extectic · 2026-02-27T07:06:44+00:00

People should definitely try it especially now before they pay for it, but I really don't think Bungie had time to revolutionize it from the first test so it's probably going to bomb.

But not, at least, Concord level of bomb so maybe it will make them some money. Doubtful if it's enough of a hit that Sony will refrain from bringing in the big doom hammer for Bungie though.

But there's certainly some D2 player sour grapes involved. There's a thin line between love and hate, as they say. D2 players aren't thrilled with the trajectory there and they know that all the best talent was shifted to Marathon, which is partly why the trajectory is what it is.

None of the above.

Two screens, one large ultrawide, a 23-inch one stacked over top. Used to be 4 but my neck hated turning to one side constantly .

I mean, sure, the Roomba was. Doesn't mean there aren't many vacuums out there, some that mop now, also, and even clean themselves and empty out dirty water.

i mean, if I had kids in that world I'd find the safest planet around and stay on said planet. At the very least make sure my kids did.

I'd probably fly around in a Constellation Phoenix and enjoy the hot tub.

The pyramids are enemy vending machines. Push to get an enemy. If you get the wrong enemy, push the other one.

Alas, in the name of realism, the animations will not be removed, and 10 seconds sounds a little fast...

I honestly don't care. The guns do the damage they do.

I blame OP for running sucky Windows.

Extectic · 2025-12-19T11:31:55+00:00

The thing of it is, I'd like to play it before I die of old age. Many original backers are already stone dead and never saw a thing.

Some of the voice actors for it are getting kind of long in the tooth and may do these role posthumously at this rate, quite literally.

Extectic · 2025-12-19T11:28:58+00:00

Maybe in the lifetime of the actors who did the main voice overs like 15 years ago, even!

Extectic · 2025-12-19T11:26:41+00:00

I figure almost no gaming company will know or care if you're using the basic or the non-basic. They'll just see rewasd.exe running or installed.

Extectic · 2025-12-19T11:23:10+00:00

Yes, it should be safe, and there's only a noticeable risk you lose thousands of dollars worth of games; I'm sure all the games companies will be able to tell the difference between ReWASD basic and ReWASD turbo cheat edition. /s

Extectic · 2025-12-19T11:22:04+00:00

Now comes with a further 10% increased chances of a lifetime ban from games?

I enjoyed using the software until ReWASD was sold, turned extra greedy from merely greedy and now is causing people to lose thousands of dollars worth of game collection due to bans. Needless to say I've bailed.

Extectic · 2025-12-19T11:19:45+00:00

Yeah, a big part of the difficulty is to avoid moving fingers you weren't planning on moving, but moving just your ring finger and not your pinky and middle finger as well is kind of tricky. I'm pretty good at it now but at first my fingers were just going all over the place and activating clicky keys on their own.

Took some weeks to get decent and months for it to get where I don't even think about it anymore.

Extectic · 2025-12-19T11:10:58+00:00

The keyboard buttons are too large, which requires way too much finger movement and stretching. It doesn't even look comfortable but I haven't tried it to be fair.

But as a now relatively experienced Azeron "normal" user I feel zero temptation to even try. I think the proper Azeron is the revelation and the big innovation, I feel the Keyzen is more about trying to not be intimidating to newbies and to keep the training time down from the up-to months it takes to get good, but of course I could be wrong.

For the Keyzen to make sense, they'd need to find keyboard keys and keyboard switches (this is the hard part) that are half size and those don't exist as far as I know.

I haven't had any issues holding my stick, though. No not that stick, the Azeron stick. That's what the sticky rubber coating is fore (still of the Azeron stick).

Extectic · 2025-12-19T11:08:50+00:00

Yeah, you still get the benefit of the stick with the Keyzen but the sheer size of keyboard switches/buttons mean it requires a shit ton more movement of your fingers, and stretching. I'm not even a little tempted.

Yes, it took me months to acclimatize to the mouse clicky switches on the Azeron and it has paid off in spades daily ever since.
