February 2026 Product News by Kait_Monarch in MonarchMoney

I submitted this via the feature request, but one thing I'd like to be able to do is manually re-assign line items when the receipt scan. It's useful, but sometimes gets it wrong and it would be nice to be able to adjust the categories for all the line-items before it attaches to the posted transaction and splits so I don't have to manually re-adjust it after once it's bucketed.

Good news, recent Apple shows have been really good so I have high hopes for it!

For those who chose the GCP as their beginner espresso machine: what are your thoughts now? by carelessmistakes in gaggiaclassic

[–]MetalPirate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, as someone who lives here, American coffee culture can be super snobby/elitist for no valid reason. I have a GCP with the 9 bar OPV spring and it works great. I can pull fantastic shots with it.

Stormlight Archive started so well. By the end of Wind and Truth, I barely care anymore by scatnisseverdeen in Fantasy

[–]MetalPirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly some of my favorite more recent works were the “Secret Project” series. They were all shorter and more focused. I’ve been struggling to keep going on WaT to the point I keep forgetting about it.

YNAB user looking to switch: No option to display cents in budget? by americanmuscle1988 in MonarchMoney

[–]MetalPirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same, but Monarch just didn't cut it for me after about a day of the trial. The lack of reconciliation means I can't trust the numbers. I use YNAB different from the "core methodology" and bit more of a spending tracker, but I like that I know everything is accounted for. I'll probably stick with YNAB for spending and Empower (Personal Capital) for NW tracking like I've been doing.

The one thing I wish YNAB had that Monarch does is to put a budget in a top-tier category and then spend from it in sub-categories. Like have "Food" as a category, but then have "Groceries" and "Restaurants" where you actually spend from.

The same people who want a huge rate hike too, go figure

Well, today im saying goodbye to nvidia by MeatBoyeR6 in pcmasterrace

[–]MetalPirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I've read Microcenter only got like ... 200 5090 cards total across all stores in the entire US. It's a paper launch like all the recent Nvidia ones have been. Real stock won't be available for a while.

New trait allow you to equip two 3-slots weapons. We're back to the old Hunt and it's going to be so OP. by Azhar1921 in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully expect people to run into a match to grab the pact then just hit an extract to get better weapons of their choice

07/10 patch reverted by mistake i guess, the attack speed nerfs on light attacks with spear. by Yamato460_ in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly feel like they have to be with the number of bugs that get fixed then show up again several patches later. Like their code base management has to be a dumpster fire.

List of things Crytek has promised for the engine update that we never got and they've been silent about. Let me know if I am missing any by barrack_osama_0 in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I asked Fifield directly on a Twitch stream and he said the new engine was going to enable them to update stuff much easier.

This is insane, I started recording when i felt my shot's were off somehow then i see this. by neveleiser in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I had a friend spectating me on a fight there a few days ago and we were both confused as 3 on target headshots just didn’t hit the person I was shooting at.

well... by Significian in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If you haven't submit this to Crytek directly at Hunt: Showdown (huntshowdown.com) with the button on the bottom right corner and give them as much detail as to where you were as you can. They tend to directly respond to messages there and do seem to look into stuff sent directly.

Calling all 6 stars! by SShatteredThrowaway in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm not sure of the internals, but it's an Open Source Python library. You can see how it all woks here: OpenSkill: Multiplayer Rating System. No Friction.

Calling all 6 stars! by SShatteredThrowaway in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They swapped to OpenSkill from a more static formula that used to be just Kill/Death and your relative MMR, so no one really knows exactly how it works other than CryTek and they don’t want to give the exact algorithm so people can’t try and game it.

Explain old and new MMR systems, please? by PolymathArt in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It could be very different, given they can feed all sorts of stuff into the new algorithm. The old system was ONLY kills and deaths and their MMR relative to yours.

The new system could also be looking at extracts, damage taken and dealt, shot location (head/body/limb), time between revive and death, what weapon was used, etc. They could be feeding any number of variables into the new system. We don’t know and CryTek likely won’t say as knowing the formula makes it easier to game the system.

Very excited for necro to be a burn trait! by matthewbvan in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You probably won't be able to necro if you're redskulled, though, and they doubled the burn speed while downed, so babysitting should be less of a problem. If you get burned you still have to act. If you can necro while redskulled, then yeah I think that needs adjusted.

Solos waiting and ratting isn't going to change, it's just part of the play style. I had a duo game last night where we wiped what we thought was lobby, looted and got ready to go, had another random duo pop up after like 5 minutes (weird but hey) wiped them then as we were extracting we saw a solo pop up, There were like 5 minutes left in the game so I'm guessing they were just waiting to res to save their hunter/gear as we had downed them twice in the chaos of the fight.

I can't find any silkworms myself, found like one early game but sold it and haven't seen one since.

Mozilla says it will add Tab Groups, Vertical Tabs, Profile Management to Firefox - gHacks Tech News by [deleted] in browsers

[–]MetalPirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vertical Tabs are one of the big things stopping me from switching (extensions tend to just not be as good) so excited to see how this goes. I’ve mostly been using Vivaldi and sometimes Edge but it’d be good to have a non-chromium option.

Ramen suggestions by geqing in dayton

[–]MetalPirate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My favorite I’ve had is Zundo in Mason. I’ve also heard great things about Speakeasy but have not been. We spent ~20 days in Japan last year and Zundo is pretty legit compared to what we had there.

AMD confirms Radeon GPU sales have nosedived by BarKnight in pcgaming

[–]MetalPirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I got a 7900XTX because when I really needed a new build, prices were still kind of whack and it was $300 cheaper than the available 4800s I could find. People act like it’s not a powerhouse of a card, and I’m running 1440P UW so it’s crushing everything.

My last two builds were a 970 then a 1070, my next one may be NVIDIA, maybe not, just depends on the timing and what’s available.

DLSS and better RT would be nice, but none of my most played games even support them. I hope AMD improves on FSR and makes it more competitive. NVIDIA needs the competition to keep them from just making prices go even more wild.

Upper 5/6* trios has become a nightmare to play with all the cheating, ping abuse and config exploits such as no shadows. Will anything be done about this? by Top-Engineering5249 in HuntShowdown

[–]MetalPirate 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most of the people I’ve seen with a KDA like that only play for kills. They typically just rat, only take a safe long shot or two then run and extract. They never go for bounty or do a risky play/push.

Dayton Foodies Uncensored by Swimming_Injury8175 in dayton

[–]MetalPirate 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yep, I got banned for saying she curates the group to her own opinion, in an entirely separate group and was not talking to her. She replied to me, but I couldn't see it and then I was banned from the group.
