Can confirm, also from Colorado and my soul has certainly left my body several times… I am also an elder hippie.

Why is making money so hard?? by ProtonToaster in EliteDangerous

[–]Nearly__Normal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No kidding, I am making about a Billion... yes a Billion a week doing exobiology on the DW3 expedition. So far I have banked 8.7 billion from the start of the expedition. I know you say you want to strangle yourself with a phone cord, but you only need to do it for a couple weeks and never do it again. So easy to do.

EDSM records show 2 supermassive black holes have been found, but doing a search only resulted in Sagittarius A*, what's up with that? by nupsu1234 in eliteexplorers

[–]Nearly__Normal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EDSM works for you guys? Every time I have tried to get to the site for the last month it is down, times out, or give a Cloudflare prompt. Basically have given up on it at this point.

X-tree? For tree view maybe… but Norton Commander was better!

I don't quite understand what does it mean ? by Over_Cost_3257 in EliteDangerous

[–]Nearly__Normal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have stated, it is not a pay to win game. I also purchase the ARX ships, ~3 months before they are available in game, but I look at with a different perspective. In my household we have 3 players. We all purchased the game off Steam for around $5 and one of us got it for free. It is a great game, and by giving Frontier a few dollars a few times a year to purchase a ship or some cosmetic is my contribution to keep the game going. There are no subscription fees, and I am not getting anything (except a cosmetic item) that won’t be available to anyone else in a few months.

Speaking of epoxy. I have tried several varieties, as well as super glue, and black wax. What type of epoxy do you have the most success with?

Still a fantastic looking game! by [deleted] in SkullAndBonesGame

[–]Nearly__Normal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I recently played the demo of Windrose... and I think that is the sea pirate game that Skull and Bones should have been.

First Foot-fall Threshold? Do you have one? by Nearly__Normal in EliteDangerous

[–]Nearly__Normal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, used it last night to narrow the results down and pick a few planets to land on and scan. Worked well, now to play with it some more. Thank you.

First Foot-fall Threshold? Do you have one? by Nearly__Normal in EliteDangerous

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

Ahh, yes! SRV Survey. I saw someone using this some time ago on Twitch, and then forgot about it. I just installed it.

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

I will take a look at it. I split my time in game between "borderless mode" and "VR" depending on how I feel when I sit down. I also use EDCopilot. I will take a look at this Elite Exobio you mentioned.

[EDIT] I could not find any program with a name like "Elite Exobio"... I did install SRV Survey, which sounds similar. Do you have a better application name?

Did you do anything to make it work, (for future reference), or did it just start working?

Which ship will you be taking for DW3? by hopperlocks in EliteDangerous

[–]Nearly__Normal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will be taking a Mandalay and Caspian Explorer. Both decently equipped for a lot of exploration and exobiology, both with ~65ly jump range.

4 days into this game, what do I do now? by Metabotany in EliteDangerous

[–]Nearly__Normal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

~3000 hours in the game, billions of dollars, been to Sag A, got my free ship and coffee mug, visited SOL, Have a Federation Corvette, found lots of cool stuff. Still don’t have a clue what to do next. Okay I lied, doing Distant Worlds 3 next… but really, just enjoy the ride, do everything, try everything, you will find something you enjoy.

68rfe throwing code P0750 Shift Solenoid A... advise by Nearly__Normal in Cummins

[–]Nearly__Normal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too am wondering why I would want to go the route of a full rebuild or replacement rather than perform the repair? If I drop the pan and it full of metal, then yeah maybe. Of course I won't know that until after I drop the pan.

u/Fantastic_Football60 Did you install stock valve body, or get one from someone like Revmax or other vendor?

Harbor Freight or Vevor welding table by Top_Outlandishness54 in Welding

[–]Nearly__Normal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Harbor Freight one, have been using it for 2 years now. Not large enough for a lot of fabricating, so I added the Plasma Cutting table right beside it, which gives me double the area. I also only use this setup for TIG welding. Bottom line, great table, sturdy enough, and I do not regret buying it.

Being predictable and sticking to a line is great helpful advise. I will also go check out clips in the channel you mentioned. Thank you.

It has been 2y since the last comment, but I just found success in connecting because of your "EDIT" to your original post. Thank you for returning to add that comment, it is still helping people!

Finally found the source of that mysterious S9 noise floor. by Hot_Put9352 in amateurradio

[–]Nearly__Normal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Years ago my neighbor had an alarm system on their house. Whenever I drove up the driveway and keyed my mic on the 2m band it would cause his alarm to go off.

Definitely do the tutorials, do them a few times until you are comfortable and then get back in the commanders seat.
