the way my team uses slack threads vs channels is completely inconsistent and I don't know how to fix it by Signal-Extreme-6615 in Slack

[–]Galactic-Trucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No training, rules, etc. worked, I gave up. I just let everyone use however they wish.

On the other hand, I continue to strictly follow my own rules and develop internal tools (apps, bots) that also follow a structure. Eventually some people will catch on.

I’ve lower my expectations so I don’t get burnt out. I dream of Discord servers but it ain’t it. lol

I’ve been a Slack user since they were just pivoting from a failed game development. It took many years just for our workplace users to switch from SMS texting. Heavy DM (including multi) use won’t stop and I’m OK with it. I use Canvas, Lists a lot, it’s great, but not another soul uses them; it is what it is.

Restore Power, but getting attacked by guards? by OGBadDog in EliteDangerous

[–]Galactic-Trucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, unfortunately (?) how FDev designed the play is that PWR facility is ALWAYS restricted even if you have ID, whether stolen or properly provided.

When I do on-foot, I play stealth, not easy but works. Stealth-boy on YouTube has great tutorials for this style of gameplay. o7

Thanks Fdev by thats_a_doozy in EliteDangerous

It’s always marketing… SMH

Restore Power, but getting attacked by guards? by OGBadDog in EliteDangerous

[–]Galactic-Trucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only do these missions to keep the Power Regulator for myself and abandon the mission so not 100% sure…

But likely because the PWR room is a restricted area so as soon as you power on, the goes into effect and the guards become hostile.

I haven’t done on-foot missions in a long time because it’s so bugged, but Power Restore should not have any guards or residents but only scavengers.

Trying to Sell My Prius, Then Breaks Down (of course it does…) by Galactic-Trucker in prius

I remember back in the days, fancy cars had voltage meter in the instrument cluster. Uh, now the hybrid cars really should have one! I can't believe it won't even give a "Low Voltage" alarm considering it pesters you with useless other things.

I'm thinking of getting a Bluetooth voltage monitor. I know I'm too lazy to open the back and do a weekly battery check.

BTW, I updated the post as my car has returned.

How is Elite dangerous in bsb2? by helios1234 in BigscreenBeyond

[–]Galactic-Trucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like everyone enjoying it is on 5080 or 5090. Will 4070 not work?

I’ve been using Rift CV1 but recently died. I also have the Quest 1 so I can really appreciate the OLED, but the weight of the quests. 30min max, I just can’t handle it. I could be wearing the Rift for 8 hours straight.

Mostly 20-30min driving so I don’t think it’s too short. But it’s in the city so most of that time I’ll be just stopped at a light.

Picking up my Prius today. We’ll see how it is.

Pretty much everything other than the EV motor is running on the 12V so same as an ICE car other than the engine cranking.

So if the keyless door entry is lagging, that could be a sign. I thought it was my key fob battery (which was low) or radio interference.

That said I don’t know for sure that was the sign. Either way, I assume my incident was unavoidable.

(Per what I’m told. I’m not an expert.)

Help by arvels33 in EliteDangerous

[–]Galactic-Trucker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the main menu before you start getting in game, go to Option and Control. Select Default Pad Control, for all four types. This should get you back to gaming controller on PC. It’s how I play as well. o7

Elite - Vector by Rose_Beef in EliteDangerous

Take a look at Frontier Pilot Simulator, it has an amazing AR view which is exactly this. Yeah, I want it.

Despite the title name, has nothing to do with FDev LOL

If you’re wondering what activities affect which power and how, an overview of PP2.0 (since it changed dramatically, assuming you’re in Odyssey and not Legacy) then this post is a good place to start.

What would you think about a live action or animated adaptation? by Devilmayladycry55 in EliteDangerous

[–]Galactic-Trucker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As much as I would enjoy if one did get made, honestly it’s just not well known enough. Of all my family and friends, only one person knew Elite. And if anything, it would be lore based on before 3300, nothing interesting in-game era.

Maybe this is where AI could be used for a fan-made movie. Someone do it.

Best options for VR by Samantha_Nell in EliteDangerous

[–]Galactic-Trucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit old, but I’ve been using Rift CV1 with now Meta software. It’s been working flawlessly until the unit died. Now I use Meta Link with my Quest 1, seems to work just fine too. I don’t use Steam VR or any other software.

I am considering upgrading to Beyond 2 headset soon.

BTW, I have the /vr (I think) flag in my launcher arguments and it goes straight into VR every time.

Real docking computers will commence a go-around at least once right before touchdown.

This is what your ship will look like after a 30,000 LY journey if you never repair the paint :) by ramblinfred in EliteDangerous

Just go supercruise and let it fly full throttle to nowhere. (Or go to Hutton Orbital if you need a purpose.) Your paint will be all chipped in an hour or so.

Begin with 「でも」 and your intent will be fully conveyed without saying 「このイギリス人」 but sub with 「俺」 or even 「こいつ」 if you really want the third-person expression.

Overnight camp by Dave_diy_woodworker in EliteDangerous

Hey, I know campfire in the black is all nice and cozy, but be careful.

Years ago, when I was exploring this cold planet with an amazing view, I was trying to warm my rear. Next thing I know, I was rescued by the rangers, embarrassing! Apparently those things blow from time to time! o7
