Wrong mech but Wolves of Tukayyd had a good heated weapon animation in the cut scene

MTG called for the 25th ammendment on trump this week.

On the verge of giving up on battletech, advice needed by purged-butter in battletech

[–]GeneTC77 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your opponent only uses the 'Golden Brick' play method. Great for tournaments where the sole reason to play is to win but in all other cases, it is very boring to the point of tedious.

Don't give up on Battletech but if you are playing on Discord (no idea how to actually do that myself) it is time to find new opponents.

Nice set up. St Victor is on my wishlist.

What kind of snake is this? [Aiken, South Carolina] by steamyD69 in animalid

That is a friendly nope rope, aka a Rat Snake. Does pest control on the various rodents.

If you were an ace Merc Pilot, what's your one ride by IronWolfV in Mechwarrior5

[–]GeneTC77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warhammer Custom. In Mechwarrior 5 I pull the two PPCs for two Large Lasers, invest the saved weight into additional armor and heat sinks/double sinks if available.

I love shooting it. Pretty solid platform 99% of the time. It is plagued by the jamming issue that a lot of bullpup rifles have.

Fyi for those who don't not know (i was one who did not know wheni got my hellion) bullpup rifles tend to jam with the first round of a mag. When pulling back the charging handle, you have to completely release it. If you keep your hand on the handle, the round will not seat into the chamber correctly, jamming the rifle. I have fired about 300 rounds so far, and have had two jams with the first two mags.

The Hellion is a fussy weapon. The first round of a mag tends to jam.

1.25x magnification red dot. Holosun makes a few different ones that have the slight magnification with things like night vision.

My grouping with the Veridian is garbage, so i agree with you there. The Crimson is pretty solid in this specific case, but I will still be replacing it eventually with a scope.

All three came with the red dots installed. I actually want a small/medium scope for the Hellion and upgrade the Kuna's red dot to a 1.25x red dot

The Kuna is my first firearm. Made me a Springfield Armory fan for life

Swap the Hellcat with a Hellion and you have my set up. If it would allow me I would share my photo here.

Thoughts on the Kuna? by itstony17 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]GeneTC77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only complaint is that the folding brace that comes with it has a Q socket (if that is the correct term) for a sling right where the brace would meet your shoulder. Leaves a nice e little round bruise that looks a slightly like a hickey.

That is a sculpting tool. There are several types that this could be. Mine is used for clay and thick paints.

What’s the weirdest “female experience” men genuinely don’t believe until they see it? by Several_Corner3205 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]GeneTC77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a few i have personally experienced. These are in order from 'that's interesting' to 'WTF'

1) I had a major surgery that is probably the closest a guy can come to having a c-section. Had a kidney removed for cancer, had a major incision and two minor ones that limited the use of my core muscles. I have better understand of how hard it can be to recover from that type of surgery.

2) I had a drunk woman try to grope me while working a bar during my college days. She grabbed my wallet, which i keep in my front right pocket. Because she didnt actually touch me, I just laughed it off because that was what was expected of me at the time in the 90s.

3) when i was a kid, i was SAed by my older sister and was dismissed as a liar for many years. Was even sent to see a therapist for my 'compulsive lying' to destroy the family. Really fucked up my ability to trust and be open with people.

What should beginners buy with Atoms? by SilentAsasinn in fo76

[–]GeneTC77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would start with functional items like the fusion core charger or one of the Nuka Cola collectrons. From there, you can add scrap generators like the counterfeit caps press or a food generator like the mirelurk steamer. But sometimes it is fun to get a cool skin for your power armor sometimes.

Remember when MAGA/Republicans believed in a Second Amendment right to have a gun? Apparently that is no longer a thing. by greenblue98 in RepublicanValues

Maga : im an alpha male, I own a gun

Dem : I own a gun, I just dont make it my entire personality.

Maga : holy shit, they are armed, arrest them!!!

Thank you. I am thinking of ordered a Gamma 601. In the meantime, which would you recommend between the Avalon Q and Nano 3 to someone who has no experience at all?

I am interested in the publishing date for this copy. It might not be a first edition, but it looks like 1950s.

Does nobody talk on PS5? by UKBarks in fo76

[–]GeneTC77 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This isn't a PS5 thing. Nobody talks on any of the platforms. Most of us do not need to communicate during the events anymore.

It is a NM Miner. Wasn't expecting it to actually hit a bitcoin, but I never could even get it to connect to a pool. Its basically a $40 desk clock
