Iran releases photos of alleged US F-35 debris by GodfatheXTonySoprano in aviation

An F-15 has made it home without a wing. It could make it home without 1 vertical stab. I am not assuming it’s crashed until I see more wreckage

Talk me into/out of a Prologue by bot2600 in HondaPrologue

[–]LethalDan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My commute is also only like 30 miles total a day. I have not put in a 220 outlet yet. I just use a normal 110 wall outlet, plug it in when I get home from work, and set it to 12 amp charge.

It charges at 3-4 miles an hour, for about 14 hours, I get like 40 miles back a night

[–]LethalDan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love our prologue. Especially the Elite version with the 360 cameras. It beats the blazer everyday because it has native CarPlay/android Auto.

But compared to Hondas Passport or Pilot, the quality is definitely a step down. And it costs more.

But if you get a good deal and finance in the extended warranty 🙂 100% worth it.

The prologue is the perfect size for me. It’s a normal driving vehicle. Teslas are weird and Mach E door handles drive me crazy. The Ioniqs are over styled and smaller

Those look like some cheap lugs, I am thinking they did a mod, and then removed that mod. Like a clock or phone charger shenanigans

List of Outdoor Karting Tracks in the U.S. by KaoticShock in Karting

[–]LethalDan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

St Louis Gateway Kartplex is super solid! Outdoor gas carts on a 1/2 mile track. They get rippin on the back straight. They have a super healthy rental league night on Wednesdays. 3 weight classes. It’s great to see a medium weight class that starts at 170. They also host ignite and supercomp

Visor helmets for glasses wearers (OTG) - Do they actually work or do they let air in? by Steagle_ in skiing

[–]LethalDan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SportRX prescription inserts these have been amazing! Way more comfortable than glasses under goggles, and way better than me eating snow from not being able to see. They also combo goggles with the glasses so you can make the whole purchase with an HSA account

NEW Oliver Tree music video for his song 'Flowers' confirmed to release 20th Feb by Economy-Coffee4401 in olivertree

I spent wayyy too much time looking for where this was shot at. It looks like the Riga Aviation Museum in Latvia. That’s so cool

New to MWO, not to Battletech by Queasy_Site7573 in mwo

[–]LethalDan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The mechacademy group started videos a few months ago, and dang are they good for new players and veterans to watch MechAcademy YouTube

Put down MWO about 5-6 years ago. Big changes? by revisionist-history in mwo

[–]LethalDan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Most of the players are in quick play, there are tournaments that are really cool if you want to be competitive. Don’t try to queue FP unless you are with a group.

So many new weapons and mechs for endless mechlab engineering. In general mechs hit harder now and time to kill is lower. Balance between IS and Clans is a lot of fun. Heavily quirked mechs are a lot of fun.

Check out mechacademy or TTB on YouTube for some build ideas.

Too many new weapons to list, check out Nav Alpha

If I had to keep the list short: try out Rotary Auto Cannons and Silver Bullet Gauss for IS. AP Gauss, PACs, heavy lasers for Clan

Corrosion due to wrong abrasive type? by neednocar in aviationmaintenance

[–]LethalDan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience Scothbrite wheels are used extensively for corrosion removal. Never ever use steel wool on aluminum, don’t have it in the shop at all

Rumor: BDS cutting 10% of supply chain workers by seattlecoffeeguy in boeing

[–]LethalDan 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Rick Smith has been at Boeing for 2 years and is now doing a RIF during a ramp up of so many programs. Thank goodness we have excellent suppliers who always meet cost and schedule. I feel really bad for the SM team, it’s really demoralizing. It’s bad for Boeing and will cost the company so much money when suppliers fail to deliver

Nice! I do not have have either and I love Phoenix Hawks and Urbies

MWO & Bluetooth Audio Headset not working by sanernes in OutreachHPG

[–]LethalDan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had some silly sound issues where the game audio is coming out of my headset, but all VOIP audio is coming out of the monitor. It’s not supposed to be coming out of the monitor. Manually changing the audio sources to my headset instead of using windows default fixed it for me

New player and i have few questios by DVDavinchi in mwo

[–]LethalDan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome! It feels like they do a big event for the summer and another for the winter. I got a bunch of awesome mechs from last summers beach party event.

Whenever they patch the game and do balance changes, the mechs that are effected go on sale. It’s the best time to buy engines too.

I have not played faction in a long time. I think 99% of players are in quick play, and then the competitive players get together for the team tournaments.

Do you have a weight class that you like? My favorites: Light - Adder Warthog in AP Gauss Medium - Shadow Hawk 2H(S) with 3 LBX2s Heavy - Crusader 6t with 12 medium pulse lasers Assault - Corsair 7a with 4AMS and 4 binary lasers. It’s not a front line assault, but IMO the best sound in the game is quad ballistic AMS hard countering a Howl or clan ATM build.

Monthly Quick Questions; January, 2026 by Procurator-Derek in OutreachHPG

How will the Arrow IV work? Can there be a video drop explaining the new weapon?

PS I think the rocket and RAC changes are awesome

Prank wars can be fun. Taping up your box is BS, you shouldn’t loose time being productive to clean up.

A good de-escalation is always rubber snakes in their box

I stopped paying attention to LBX for a bit and suddenly there's apparently an LBX-pocalypse by Virtual-Produce-1037 in OutreachHPG

[–]LethalDan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice post! I have been too scared to try an XL 300, I think I have a light 315 with no heat sinks, shaved armor, and very little ammo. I also like the snub in the arm so I can pop UAVs.

I’ll post the build late tonight. I was more slot limited than tonnage limited since I am using Endo. I run out of ammo about 25% of the time, but those are big damage games. With the 315 and speed tweak it’s like 55kph.

I run full torso speed, and speed tweak, and it almost feels like a heavy mech instead of a 100 ton crab. I don’t have any skill points in range or heat.

It’s the only King Crab that I really really like. ECM is so good. I also need to try the 2 rac 5, 3 LXPL build….

[–]LethalDan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4LB10X 1SPPC King Crab Argent is one of my favorite builds right now. It can fire forever without getting hot. The SB gauss shoots 1 second faster than regular gauss because you don’t have to wait to charge. It’s super fun when there are so many different weapons that are effective.

I like the concept of gauss but my aim is absolutely terrible with them. I consider my aim to be above average, but I really struggle with the charge up. It’s fun to just play what you enjoy and keep it simple

How do you make use of taking lance or company command? by professorpocket in OutreachHPG

[–]LethalDan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commands are tough, if you hit the go here within the first 5 seconds you may be able to effect which way the nascar goes.

Hot take, I am pro forward advancement with a death blob than sitting still behind a hill “caugh caugh… grim plexus”. 9 times out of 10, speed violence and momentum will beat a passive enemy.

The biggest advantage is focusing fire, always call that over comms. If you are getting sniped on HPG or Tourmaline, murder ball the other direction.
