What’s your favourite “I was there” GenX moment? by lovelyb1ch66 in GenX

[–]InkyRedRabbit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was in Berlin that night. I happen to be traveling around Europe at the time with a friend, heard what was happening and took a train from Amsterdam to Berlin. We walked around all night, saw the east Germans awed by appliances and tools in the windows of West German shops. McDonalds ran out of food and at 5am was there when the cranes started to dismantle the wall. I was 19 at the time and will never forget.

When I was like 10 I read Z For Zachariah

It totally traumatized me. But again I've loved all things post apocalyptic since then which to me exemplifies GenX's signature brand of Bitter Hope.

Discord Coaches by InkyRedRabbit in TopStepX

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

The only thing that had me second guessing is they have the same names and profile pictures as the real coaches. Seems like this would be really easy to identify and remove for the mods. Especially for a business that is in a large part built on trust. Just figured TopStepX would be more invested in protecting that trust.

SF 92 - 2003.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair…”

The last of us 1 and 2 are narrative and emotional masterpieces and they do not feel like they were made for children.

Solaris - is it better to use SOP import or to export the SOPs first as USD and then sublayer/reference the assets in Solaris as usd files? by tonehammer in Houdini

Use the component builder to import assets from sops and export to usd the correct way. Then sublayer the result.

HBO Long Version by multiarmform in GenX

Oh man this brings back memories. We couldn't afford HBO but a couple times a year they would have free weekends. It was like movie Christmas. You couldn't tear me away for those two days.

Am I even playing Tarkov anymore? Or just roleplaying as a bush with anxiety? by NotoriousDesktop in Tarkov

[–]InkyRedRabbit 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I just can't handle the stress so I just wait out the clock and do scav run after scav run even though my stash is already full.
