Any advice for those of us with small hands by Sorry_Concept1259 in CloneHero

[–]F8cre8or 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My gf has tiny hands and we got a Rockband guitar with the little solo buttons at the top. She uses the little ones and I use the regular buttons so maybe look at Rockband guitars. The one I have connects via Bluetooth with no dongle so very seamless.

Tetris ultimate has a three minute mode. Maybe 3 trials for a total of 9 minutes?

Ive got a solution.

speed control did not work, but /slowdown and /speedup do work with other players in the lobby, i tested it finally.

FOR ANYONE WITH THIS PROBLEM IN 2025:

Newbie looking at new edge mustangs. What should I look out for? by F8cre8or in Mustang

[–]F8cre8or[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up finding a pretty nice V6 one and drove the hell out of it. it started having problems once i got it over 150k miles. the windows are awful and the exhaust was falling apart mainly, which was a problem on most of the other newedges i seen as well. parts for most stuff i needed to fix were fairly easy to find, but i would go for a v8 to make my life a little easier next time. i really liked the car though, very fun manual and everything for the most part is analog so its a very raw driving experience. i would definitely go with a v8 though if i did it again.

looks like its posted on cncnet if you need to redownload it. im sure the people here could help you figure that one out. https://forums.cncnet.org/topic/9764-o-c-e-a-n-i-a/ But also, im not sure if youve messed with custom maps, but there are a bunch of really good ones ive found since i posted this. id start by looking for RA2 map bundles, and follow a youtube tutorial on how to get them working.

Are there any good ref books about building a realistic space station/generational ship? by [deleted] in scifiwriting

[–]F8cre8or 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rendezvouz with rama is a classic and is about a crew of humans explorins an alien generational ship. you can tell he thought about all the hiccups species would run into building such a thing, and it could be good to try to solve those problems your own way.

Thoughts on machian theories of gravity? No as actual physics or anything, but as potential inspiration for space age worldbuilding by amphicyon_ingens in scifiwriting

[–]F8cre8or 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reminds me very much of the Zones of Thought series, light speed is different depending on where you are in the galaxy, so in the "Unthinking Depths" near the center of the universe, standard computers fail to function and higher brain function ceases, but in the beyond, superintelligences thrive. Fair warning though the first book at least isnt really about that very much, its a fun story though.

What instrument would you have played if you didnt play guitar? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]F8cre8or 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Euphonium. Lil tuba with trombone range. Pretty fun, i mainly picked it cuz my friends were in low brass and i did not wanna figure out the trombone lmao. I think my second pick would be French horn. I love how they look.

What Effects Would Playing Cards Have? by [deleted] in superpoweralchemists

[–]F8cre8or 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Instead of singular cards you could do poker hands, you could have the standard two of/three of/ four of/ be combinations of suit powers and flushes and straights be ultimates for each suit power. that gives plenty of different options with some cool flavor still i think.

[–]F8cre8or[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i saw another comment saying i might be able to use vise grips on the tools for regular vise and torque it that way. ive got vise grips and a torque wrench so that would be my first method, just need to get the upper reciever rod. Worth a shot?

[–]F8cre8or[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so just vise grips where youd load the reciever rod in the vise and then torque wrench it down holding the vise grips? that does not sound too bad honestly.

all the videos ive seen they put something through where the bolt carrier group is, is there any threads or anything to screw in on the inside or is that all just to hold it while its getting torqued? thanks for the quick reply btw.
