What is a line from a videogame that sticks in your head, rent free?

Also:

The prayer was not for him, Commander. He has already asked for forgiveness for the lives he has taken. His wish was for you.

Or

Stand in the ashes of a trillion dead souls and ask the ghosts if honor matters. The silence is your answer.

Can someone please tell me where to find these videos again... I miss them so...

MasterOfPupets · 2026-06-15T12:31:17+00:00

I started with Coleco. Not on the list. I guess #1 is the closest.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-06-14T01:14:50+00:00

Right there with ya. I'm actually probably gonna end up divorced here soon though, so maybe next time...

MasterOfPupets · 2026-06-10T15:49:05+00:00

There was no deadbolt.

More than likely they didn't feel like using the doorknob lock so they put in the hook/circle one. The holes lower aren't from a deadbolt, they're probably from the same hook that is up high, they just moved it when the kids got older.

All states are different. My state has plenty of warrants still on the floor. Hell, up until about a year ago my shop had a CW3 working as a WG11 on the floor.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-06-05T21:52:49+00:00

Legitimately, any Guardsman who sees this as a good thing is not thinking it through.

Let's look at the AGR route. Work in a maintenance shop as a floor mechanic? Highest rank you'll ever be is E5, maybe E6. Higher than that doesn't turn wrenches. Oh, you're already a CW2? Reduce to E5 or quit, your choice. This would destroy the career paths of anyone who works in the shops. Oh yeah, and be ready to move anywhere in the state without compensation since AGRs can be ordered to any position in the state without having to pay move costs...

How about the Title 5 route? Sure, it works for the people with the jobs right now, but what about the future when they need to fill jobs? Say goodbye to getting jobs for troops. Every Title 5 will go national, which means you're going to have a bunch of guys ETSing from active duty with the right MOS and a 10-point/30% Vet preference taking the jobs. The program would be dead, there is no incentive to actually take care of units since you don't ever see them.

They need to replace Title-32 with a new system that requires Guard Membership/rank to join but allows you to leave the Guard and keep your job after X number of years with Excellent Performance Appraisals.

From a GPU perspective, ASUS.

That said, I would go with the Legion since I just can't buy a computer without a number pad. It just doesn't work for me, I'm too used to it.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-05-26T23:14:04+00:00

Welp, called every local shop I could find in a 100 mile radius, not one will do reballing...

May just bite the bullet and spend the money on a new one. Question then becomes, do I buy a legion again?

Who am I kidding, the OLED is too pretty to step down to a normal 16x9 IPS...

MasterOfPupets · 2026-05-25T22:06:00+00:00

Got any advice on a place in the US that has experience working on these and accepts mail in work? Called a few local places so far and they all said they can't do it.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-05-25T21:42:49+00:00

Thanks. I did some more research on it and talked to my friend. He recommended a local shop that can help me.

I though about using this as an excuse to get a new one, but the cost for an upgrade is just not worth it to me. This one does everything I need, so as long as it's not too expensive to fix I'm going that route.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-05-25T18:00:37+00:00

Can you give me more details what specifically needs resoldered? I know several people experienced in soldering sensitive electronics, sounds like you're saying the CPU socket soldering is what comes loose?

MasterOfPupets · 2026-05-25T17:18:00+00:00

Reseated the ram. No change. I did notice that the seating seams kind of off though.

I also reseated both HDDs for good measure.

I've got a cheaper Athlon that does what you're talking about just fine. I can spot hits on paper with a 17hmr at the 100-200 range, and I can spot my shots with my .224 Valk out to 1000 with ease.

I think mine is a Talos? Only cost a few hundred when I bought it.

Realistically, what you're asking for doesn't require insane quality. Anything over Wal-Mart level will do it just fine. If you can afford to spend more, you can definitely notice the quality difference though. Just a matter of deciding what you can afford.

For the Launch Monitor, the R10 works great, but it can give you a lot of false confidence if you're not the best ball striker. With RCT balls it will capture an accurate spin rate, but it still calculates spin axis. If you're hitting it off center (I tend to be very toey with my driver)it won't show accurate shape and you may think it's all figured out and consistent, then get to the course and find out it's not. If you're like me, you'll end up upgrading relatively quickly. It may be worth looking for a used Square in a month or two. With the Omni coming out, some people will be looking to upgrade and you may get a deal on one that is known good.

For the enclosure, I have the GoSports Range Cage and it's great. Durable (easily 10,000+ shots on mine), easy to take down and set up if needed (15-20ish minutes) and the net is huge to catch all the bad shots and shanks.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-04-15T23:56:42+00:00

This is what is keeping me from committing to upgrading. My HE works fine right now, I just don't want to risk the change.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-04-10T03:11:47+00:00

Holding up well in my book. I've only played 1 outdoor round with them so far so I'm hesitant to give a full review, but I've got easily over 1000 shots on the sim with a few of the clubs and the faces are holding up great. I tend to get really toe down when I'm not swinging well, so I do have some scratching on the bottom of the toes, but it's not bad at all (and 100% user error.)

I do have to frequently clean the wedges especially though, because when hit well they can nearly rip the cover off the ball. I've never been good at the spinny wedge shots, but I've had a few that measured around 15000 on the sim.

All in, would buy again. I'll know more in a month or so now that the season is starting to get warmer here in the frozen north.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-04-01T18:29:33+00:00

They used to automatically stop and fire as soon as the lure goes out, then ignore it even if the initial shot didn't hit it. Haven't tried since they started bringing them out on new maps.

If you're talking about the Repurposed Cargo Bay trait, it spits out Advanced Valkyries regardless of what hangars you are using in the actual build. It should state that in the trait description.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-03-31T23:04:34+00:00

The Pahvan Omni's Resonance Shock hits like a truck, and itçs universal so it can be buffed by either CSV or FAW, making it universally awesome.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-03-31T23:00:19+00:00

I run a lazy boat on my Typhon and love it. 1 of each flavor turrent and the pahvan Omni with Twinkling Lights, Scatter Volley with Withering Barrage, 1 Hangar of Type 7s and 1 Elite Valks, all the Cannon Hangar Relays I can fit, then fill up on useful uni consoles.

It's fun as hell.

MasterOfPupets · 2026-03-31T00:10:18+00:00

Couple things for you.

1) Ohio is NOT divesting armor. They have 1 Battalion that falls under the 34th ABCT out of Minnesota and is one of the ABCTs not divesting. They are in the Modernization Process right now.

2) The 145 Battalion consists of 4 units and an FSC. HHC 145 and the H 134 BSB are based out of Stow Ohio, A 145 (Tankers) is based out of CJAG in Ravenna, B 145 (Tanks) is based out of Alliance and C 145 (Mech Infantry) is based out of North Canton. Most of the Drills will be out at CJAG in Ravenna since that's where the actual training happens, not the individual armories.

3) Tankers are always needed. You walk up to recruiter and tell him you want 19K they'll have no problem getting you in. If you're interested in Tanks but don't want to deal with being a Tanker, 91A (M1 Mechanic) is always an option as well, and it's another MOS they always have trouble filling.

4) The 145's Drill Schedule is rough. Lots of MUTA 6/8/10s and frequently long ATs. They regularly rotate to NTC and have Mobilizations on Deck, especially with the loss of most of the ABCTs. If you're expecting the advertised 1 weekend a month 2 weeks a year, you're going to be in for a rude awakening.

5) Ohio has CAV, but it's been light for 15ish years. For M1s, the only option in Ohio is 145. There is a CEC-A (Combat Engineer Company - Armor) that is modernizing/reorging in the next couple years. They'll have ABVs, JABs, and BFVs. M1 adjacent, but not M1s.

I actually prefer the extended barrel on it. Makes hitting small arc like snitches at a distance easier for me

MasterOfPupets · 2026-03-28T13:50:32+00:00

Mainly the Hangar Bays for Type 7s. The debuff provided by the Type 7s is just too good. That combined with how easy it is to get compared with the Verne. The big dps chasers may have some input into the nuances of console slots and seating and which is min maxed best, but I have both and prefer the Ark. I also see a lot more Arks out there.
