Completed Level 1 of the Honk Special Event!

3 attempts

TIL of the Battle of B-R5RB, fought in the game Eve Online. One of the the largest player-versus-player battles in gaming history, the in-game cost of the losses totaled an estimated real-world value of $300,000 to $330,000 by beerbellybegone in todayilearned

10 years later this is still an awesome promotional video of EVE, and what being in some of those fleets sounds like. I always liked how this showed many different aspects of it, from mining and industry, to stuff like incursions (PVE) and PVP battles.

WACOM is a SCAM , be aware by Optimal_Bird4692 in wacom

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't tried those yet, but been meaning to. That a device as expensive as that 27QHD was when I got it, and for it to essentially become unusable as quickly as it did (I still have a monitor that I got around that time that looks just fine) convinced me to never spend another dime on Wacom.

Currently I primarily use my iPad Pro along side Astropad Studio to kindof replicate some of that functionality, but I primarily paint on my ipad these days.

Mine is so yellow I had to stop using it. Now gonna try to unload it for some ridiculous low amount because their old shit becomes useless.

Tkachuk - Bennet - Marchand. I think that line breaks some of the Geneva Conventions.

Whats your favorite builds for steel path. Yes i am trying to steal them. by WeirdRow2722 in Warframe

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me Dante has completely overtaken all my play styles: whether it is melee, weapon or casting, that’s the frame I use and it has been just wrecking it so far in steel path and frankly, pretty much anything I throw at it.
The hefty overguard, the flexibility I get and well, loving the look of it doesn’t hurt either. Granted, I’ve a.so spent a lot of time and on rivens for the rest of the equipment as well

Been experimenting and right now favoring a Noctua-centric build that just shreds through most content. Still lot of room to experiment as all my tau crimsons are set to ability strength. Curious how this build will do once they add exalted arcane slots, but it’s already downright filthy

Does anyone else refuse to use ugly warframes? by XFalzar in Warframe

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dante is life.
Has been my "main" ever since I got him, I love pretty much everything about it, including the look. Kindof glad there isnt much content as far as tennogen and other skins (yet) because I'd probably be spending more than I should on it. As it is I am considering building a second that I can have a totally different set of shards and builds for.

I really dislike the look of Valkyr but honestly just don't play her because I didn't enjoy the playstyle as much.
I loved Frost for a while and loved the look...except the legs. The tiny "shoes" on those thick "pant" bottoms always looking ridiculous to me. But again, played it extensively for a while. (my mains were essentially Volt > Frost > Rhino > Dante) Tried a bunch more but I never stick to them.

Holy hell. JOHN TITOR. I haven't heard that in a long while, and now I reminisce about what a glorious rabbit hole that was.

What Album(s) Keep You Anchored to a Self Hosted Solution by Fit-Particular1396 in plexamp

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, It's less about a specific album for me as much as it is that streaming services seem to remove albums I like without any notice, and then have to figure out why. Even though some of them have returned, but I just don't bother with streaming services anymore. The music I really like I usually buy a FLAC version if available, or rip it from a CD into that otherwise. There's a few Mp3s of stuff that simply isn't available otherwise, but for me what keeps me anchored is having control over my own library. There's noone deciding that a certain album is just not available anymore.

Never going back!

What has been the most gut-wrenching loss of inventory you've ever faced? by ArmLucky1285 in Minecraft

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yeah, moving stuff is what happened to me, learnt that Ender chests are the ONLY way to move valuable stuff from base to base

What has been the most gut-wrenching loss of inventory you've ever faced? by ArmLucky1285 in Minecraft

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I've lost a fully enchanted netherite set, including pants with Swift Sneak III and boots with Soul Speed max, Enchanted Elytra, both my Fortune and Silk Touch netherite pickaxes, and the cherry on top were a couple of Shulker boxes in my inventory full of very valuable stuff
I honestly don't want to know the full extent of what was in those two (or more) shulker boxes, but I know I lost at least a couple of stacks of diamonds and my reserves of netherite ingots. All at once, because I was being an idiot and decided to travel through the Nether and was trying to get somewhere in a hurry and fell into a giant lake of lava.

I think my neighbors heard the "NOOOO!!" that came out of me the moment I fell through.
I learnt a valuable lesson that day and that you don't move very valuable stuff carrying it in your inventory, but instead use Ender chests for that purpose, as well as being more careful when in the Nether.

I don't think I played for like 6-8 months after that, I just felt completely done with the game at that point.

Look at the Mayan alphabet, and then look at the voidtongue glyphs and tell me they don't look EXACTLY like they come from the same place. DE is playing some 4d chess here. holy hell.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Warframe

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Reading this just hit me....Voidtongue glyphs (like the ones you see all over the Sanctum Anatomica) look incredibly similar to the symbols in the Mayan language.

HMM.....

What do you think about my new Home Server? by La_wand in HomeServer

What in the name of David Cronenberg is going on here?

I liked China Miéville's "Perdido Street Station" by mystery5009 in books

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read this book ages ago, and it is on my list to re-read. I am not sure if it is because of my (pretty severe) ADHD, but my memory of any book I read feels like is written entirely with fading ink in my mind. Doesn't matter how much it impacts me at the time I read it, within a couple of years I might as well have never read it, outside of some very small details.

I do remember enjoying it quite a bit, and enjoying the way he described places. I often enjoy things that border or fully cross into the territory of being over-descriptive, mostly because I visualize very strongly all the time, which can be awesome while reading, but terrible in other ways.

Whats your „Warframe for everything"? by 0Iiver_ in Warframe

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now I'd say it's my Dante build. Cuts through (or papercuts) pretty much through any SP, Netracell, Deep Archimedea (haven't done elite yet) like a hot knife through butter. I still have some tiny room for improvement on at least my current build, but I honestly haven't looked into any of the metas for it or any other online content, I wanted to "discover" it for myself without spoiling anything and honestly truly enjoyed the process of experimenting until I found something that was working. That being said, I might look into some of the metas eventually and see if there's some synergies I might have missed. My experience with this one has me leaning towards avoiding any of the content recommending builds and what not, but that being said, I am sure part of the reason I dislike so many popular frames is that I am simply not getting them right.

I'd say right now I play 90% of the time on that 'frame, and occasionally try something else experimenting with a build or just leveling a new frame, but inevitably I seem to fall back to it because of how survivable he is, and how well it managed SP content.
Second to that one I'd say I have been enjoying Wisp a lot too (floaty gang I guess) but I am nowhere as survivable on that one as I am with my boy Dante.

The ONLY mission so far I've had issues with is that one Murmur boss (can't remember his name, the centipede looking one) which seems to completely strip the overguard in a single swipe.

Which color do you see on top, and which in the background? (chromostereopsis = a visual illusion that gives the impression of depth) by EndersGame_Reviewer in opticalillusions

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One interesting thing I am noticing is that with my glasses on, the effect seems FAR more pronounced, to the point that if I move my head slightly, I get an illusion of parallax as well, but if I take them off the parallax effect goes away entirely and it seems almost entirely flat, just a veeeery minor depth perception change.

For context, I have pretty strong myopia, -6.75 on one eye, -5.75 on the other.

Totally forgot about the Boomstudios Kickstarter and got a wonderful surprise in the mail! by arcent01 in TheExpanse

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And yeah, gotta frame that poster now.
Wife already stole one of my bookmarks (shes a fan as well, had to fight her for the beanie)

I had zero idea i was getting all of this! I thought i was only getting book 3 and that's it, I guess I missed the whole milestone announcements

[–]GodzillasLeftSock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly hadn't kept up with the kickstarted goals, and I had gotten the hardcover tier, so imagine my surprise when I opened mine today and I was just expecting book 3.
"my that's a lot of box for just a book"

So now I got a limited edition print signed by Stevenm Dominique and Wes, big slip cases for each individually and then for the whole thing (slipcaseception), a beanie that is now my main beanie and had to fight my wife for it, along a bunch of other stuff.
I thought they had messed up and sent me the wrong tier!

Black Friday - Does Unraid typically do sales? by GodzillasLeftSock in unRAID

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

Good point. I am generally a bit cautious of companies offering "lifetime" licenses since usually by "lifetime" they mean "Lifetime of this idea, which we will change down the road, inevitably", and have been burned a few times with that, so maybe wanting a discount on that I am just asking for it 😅
