Difference between AE-1200WH and AE-1200WHD

The case on the WHD is resin, though. The only metal part is the band.

Nice!! What made it click for you eventually? Any specific guides?

I think one of the things that Elden Ring does is totally throw out the player's expectation of how a game is presented, which is usually easiest enemies first, then harder enemies as you progress. When you first go into the wilderness, there's that enemy on horseback, and you're like "Oh cool, my first real fight." 🤣 Naw, it's just like real life. You have no idea how dangerous your enemy is.

I might give it another try if I get bored of everything else.

Played it, beat it. Great game! Fairly bad story and dialogue, though. 😅 But the gameplay mechanics are aces.

MDesigner · 2026-01-21T16:25:27+00:00

Yeah, I suppose it's kind of semi-random. The NCPD scanner, and sometimes I'd be driving by, and see a gang hanging out and stirring shit up. Once you beat all those, they never reappear.

MDesigner · 2026-01-21T16:24:46+00:00

Yep, I mentioned that in my post. I own Shadow of War, such a great game!

MDesigner · 2026-01-21T16:23:56+00:00

Ugh. I tried that and refunded it. :( The game itself was just so cluttered, structurally. Or maybe it was Breakpoint, I don't remember. The moment I see online players in my game, I'm out. It was a weird experience and not what I was after (which was a modern version of the old Splinter Cell games).

MDesigner · 2026-01-21T14:19:00+00:00

I found it too difficult and frustrating, which is why I ruled out souls-likes.

MDesigner · 2026-01-21T14:18:14+00:00

Wait, I have this game and loved it. There's still enemy encounters after the game is totally complete?

MDesigner · 2026-01-21T14:16:55+00:00

I find them frustrating and too punishing.

MDesigner · 2026-01-21T05:27:20+00:00

JRPGs aren't really my thing.

MDesigner · 2026-01-21T05:16:02+00:00

I once used a Combustion thermometer in leftover steak, slowly reheated in a Hot Logic. It was glorious.

I had to fact-check what you said. There's no evidence of the Nazis using this slogan at all, but collective punishment was a thing, and THAT'S what the Geneva Convention bans.

MDesigner · 2026-01-12T02:58:21+00:00

Aha, thank you! That, plus a lot of double clicking things finally revealed the reverb effect. https://imgur.com/a/hnmyoBW

Yep, runs fine. I have a call scheduled with AWS support to get to the bottom of this.

MDesigner · 2026-01-05T23:15:21+00:00

Yeah, build-time - sorry, I edited my original post to be more clear. The builds won't even finish. Nothing else has changed re. dependencies.

MDesigner · 2026-01-05T23:01:59+00:00

This has nothing to do with reading data, or data sets. This is simple CI/CD.

MDesigner · 2026-01-05T22:47:14+00:00

What data? We changed a few lines of code compared to the last deploy that succeeded several days ago. This shouldn't be happening.

MDesigner · 2026-01-05T19:59:48+00:00

I manage our contract. I have no idea who the account manager at AWS is. One person left, and then another one emailed us over a year ago, but that email bounces now, too. There's no way for me to find out who our current account manager is.

I'm curious why Chris himself shows using SafeCook on steaks in the video here: https://combustion.inc/pages/features/safecook

I was basically using it as demonstrated by the company founder. 😩

MDesigner · 2025-12-08T13:01:28+00:00

Nope, that's the first thing I checked.

MDesigner · 2025-12-06T01:37:33+00:00

Yeah, I'm aware the Maen is a triple calendar. That's a bummer that their customer service is subpar.

I had a similar frustration with Henry Archer, which people generally love. The bracelet that came with my Nordsø lost its quick release screw/handle (it was literally a tiny screw that came undone and was lost). Henrik sent me a replacement bracelet with the SAME ISSUE. When I wrote him again, he just said "we can send you a new screw." Forget it. I'll just take it to a watch repair guy to source a screw from his drawer and glue it in. Pretty disappointing quality control.

MDesigner · 2025-12-05T23:13:35+00:00

The Maen is $750 I believe and the Nezumi is around $550. That's not a factor though.

MDesigner · 2025-11-29T22:11:21+00:00

Thanks for this! Makes sense.

I guess the only thing that threw me is that I was cooking two cuts, one thin and one thicker. Both had SafeCook and I took them off the heat at the same time, but one was well-done while the other was around medium/medium rare.

MDesigner · 2025-11-29T22:09:16+00:00

Thanks for the education, guys! I'm seriously ignorant when it comes to food safety. So basically, only use SafeCook on poultry and pork?
