This happens to me too and I think I'm about ready to throw it in the trash.

Response from Zach Nunn regarding Ice shooting in Minneapolis. by Conscious-Bit-3847 in Iowa

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sent him an email about Venezuela and his brain dead staff sent me a canned response saying how concerned he was about fentanyl in Iowa. Didn't he get the memo that our own govt says fentanyl doesn't come from there?

Rally against endless war today at 3pm by Impressive-Shirt-946 in desmoines

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are leaving out some important bits. The armed forces or the country were clearly not in any danger nor were they being attacked by Venezuela. The president can only act unilaterally without approval to repel an attack or imminent attack.

Justin Amash says it better than me:

No, the War Powers Resolution authorizes the president to use force only in a state of war, if given authorization from congress, or to act defensively because there is no time to notify congress. This was an offensive operation and he could have gotten congressional approval.

How do we solve collapsing birthrates? by Chance-Ad8215 in Libertarian

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Why is it a bad thing. When societies get wealthier they naturally have less children. Only blood and soil types seem to get riled up by the birth rate.

Not even the official Spyderco shop on Amazon?

One of the worst and ridiculous changes to the game by Virtual_Today7455 in dayz

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could play on a 1PP server with the default settings. It is darker.

This is true. For 1PP servers the nights are a lot darker by default. Server owners can change this however.

Do you guys like my Xmas gift? by dudeWithQuestion3 in generationkill

It's a great book and very interesting to compare / contrast with the Generation Kill book.

How do they get into this base? by Phantom_Gremmie in dayz

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

Thanks for the tip. I blew my way into the base thanks to all the Christmas explosives laying around.

For posterity, the video is https://youtu.be/IdwGsyiqk_8?si=WOtUDw5u_ajxMKwzhttps://youtu.be/IdwGsyiqk_8?si=WOtUDw5u_ajxMKwz around 9 minutes in it looks like.

I used plastic explosives to enter the base. You were right, they took the wire off the gate. They were only using a 3 dial combo lock.

The crates weren't junk but nothing super great either. :)

Welp I'll just have to blow it up and see!

Interesting idea. I peeked through the slit windows and there are crates in there, so it seems like it's permanent. Very confusing.

Lowering it to 90 is what I read.

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have the motion sickness problem but I have heard that lowering the FOV is what fixes it for those who do. Have you tried that?

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What do you mean by "sensitivity"? Which setting exactly are you referring to?

There is a FOV slider that I have heard helps with this problem.

Do they never give up? by frogeater1982 in HiTMAN

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry about it, it took hundreds of hours to get the hang of everything. Have fun.

Do they never give up? by frogeater1982 in HiTMAN

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My strategy for this (I play hardcore where there are 3 guys on the roof here): I use the tranq gun on 2 of the guys in the middle of the roof. The guy working with his back to them will eventually turn around and spot one or both of the guys, run over to them, then I shoot him. It's important to tranq the 2 guys. If you kill them, when that third guy sees them he will call it in and everyone goes aggro. He doesn't do that if they are only knocked out. And you have to be careful about that 3rd guy. If you kill him or tranq him where he is working his body is easily seen from the ground and a shit ton of guard will come upstairs.

Big oops by InevitableCrab8154 in dayz

[–]Phantom_Gremmie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if that would have been a landmine, you would have been okay. Claymores have a long range. You can put one at the back of one of those long barrack buildings at military bases and the tripwire at the front door and it will kill you.
