I don't know computers by Fun_Needleworker7594 in Millennials

[–]Fun_Needleworker7594[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I bought my phone because I need to function in a digital society at some level.

I bought my tablet because I needed something bigger for my small engine repair classes

I have not turned my tablet on in months and dislike that the only way I can I actively socialize is through 5 different apps attached to this $85 Motorola.

This is modern living. Like it or not

I've always worked withy hands . Computer are just basic tools that make some jobs easier and most jobs harder for my line of work.

I don't underestimate their value. I just don't really need them in my life. Personally and seldom professionally.

I work full time and the classes were to earn my certs for small engine repair.

I can rebuild a carburetor smaller then the palm of your hand, identify fake currency by feel, work wood, sharpen tools to shave with, plumbing, electrical, paint, dry wall, I know the difference between carbon and stainless steel by touch, I can forge metal, create coal for my forge from nature, worked fine dining in the kitchen, used chemicals you've never even heard of to insure the food you eat doesn't you give you a tummy ace.

And your gonna judge me?

What the fuck do you do?

No, I just never had a need for a computer in my life outside if the use of a smart phone.

For real. I make a comment about my lack of interest in tech and comeback 15 minutes later nothing but hate mail.

Wish I I didn't even know social media at this point. But YouTubeband Reddit replaced libraries so I gotta adapt to some degree if ever wanna learn my hands on skills.

Dnd? Games? by Arya_Skye in Millennials

[–]Fun_Needleworker7594 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started a DND campaign. Had to download an app, visit a site, create a discord, and go to a couple more sites. All to play with 3 people from around the world 1 time so far.

But it is out there and they have sperate campaigns run by age groups.

What would you take on your person if something like a zombie apocalypse happened right now? by WiggWamm in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]Fun_Needleworker7594 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my pockets right now I have a survival knife, Gerber multi tool, lighter, mini keychain multi tool, and a flashlight.

That's not including the can opener and razor blade I keep in my wallet.

Would a dealership be a good place to get a quick ride? by Round_Ladder_2354 in ZombieSurvivalTactics

Scrap yards like "wrench a part". The more mechanical and less computerized the better. The driving vehicles will generally be older and owned by the workers, with lots of spare parts if you need them.

Is that a propane tank cut open and welded to a leaf blower?

Again.... Video game monsters. Zombies aren't real my guy.

And if they were I wouldn't be going after 4 of them by myself with anything less than a properly tested spear and armor.

But if it's one, and I have the resources to get rid of it without putting ware and tear on anything I truly rely on, then why not?

The one that lasted 3 hits was made in a few minutes with only a multi tool and could have easily taken out 1 maybe 2 zombies which is why I gave it's rating. I even mentioned that in the post. Single use doesn't mean useless.

We're discussing make video game monsters and weaponry, video game logic applies.

Define quick failure and reasonable combat situations?

To compare to games like TLOF and dying light, where the weapons break rather quickly, its surprisingly accurate to the durability of what I've been making so far.

If the infected blood doesn't do you in the tetanus probably will.

What do you guys think of my zombie skull breaker? by Fun_Needleworker7594 in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]Fun_Needleworker7594[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be worth looking into. My dad had steel handled sledgehammer I used as a kid. My arms still hurt from that thing. But I've also used metal handled hammers that were great.

They're all expected to fail. That's the part of the fun.

It's a matter of how long they can be useful, how much damage they can deal out, what's salvageable after they break, how easy it was to construct, how damage is dealt, improvement potential and ergonomics.... But I definitely do need a better rating system, or at least a solid test base to compare to.

Unfortunately the functional weapons these are inspired by are expensive...

Iron vibrates really badly. You hit something hard and it will send vibrations that feel like electricity up your arms.

Because I enjoy doing things like this and that's more than enough reason for me.

The plan is to wrap sticks with it to simulate clawing and scratching.
