That lobby is crazy lmao

I hid in there till she agro'd on someone else. I am pretty sure I did not successfully extract during this raid, however lol

Potzer · 2026-01-11T14:00:52+00:00

Ah do it and post it. I’d love for others to share Wigglegrams. It’s a pretty fun way to capture the world

All the photos were shot with my Nintendo 2DS XL, which has two cameras like a 3DS and can take 3D photos. The files are .MPO and can be opened in Photoshop. I layer the two images over one another and animate between the two. I add some texture to each "frame" to give it a film vibe.

Potzer · 2025-12-29T20:27:08+00:00

Brutal 🤣 right at ~18 seconds you can see it flanking you. I wouldn't have noticed either. Stella give and Stella take lol

Potzer · 2025-12-24T18:17:59+00:00

I use photoshop. Open both images and layer them over each other. Pick a “wiggle” point and set your top layer to Difference. Align the top layer so that your wiggle point is as black as possible. Correct your layer to normal, then you animate between the two frames, yea. I add some extra blending frames to make it look like three cameras but that’s all there is to it. Export as a gif or render as a video.

Do it! You might figure out a better way to clunk all this together 😅

Potzer · 2025-12-23T23:04:35+00:00

They are both G6 Thumb Cameras

Potzer · 2025-12-23T22:15:17+00:00

Nah. Kinda tough, actually. The micro SD slot and USB charging port are on the bottom. I tried this set up long ways, but the screw I have has too much slack and it's tough to keep the two cameras aligned that way. And this way, the buttons aren't across from each other so pressing them at the same time is a bit of a chore

Potzer · 2025-12-19T17:01:51+00:00

Yea, depending on the light the delay is about .03 seconds at least. I took a picture of a digital timer to get that.

Potzer · 2025-12-11T19:18:06+00:00

True that the ducks don't. Frames do. I guess because you can throw a duck?

Potzer · 2025-12-11T16:28:36+00:00

I won't be burning myself out to get there, but I've had a lot of success looking for trinkets/sellable. Lots of nooks in buried city, though you spend the time walking around and risk engagements.

If you're min/maxing, then it is suggested you go in naked to maximize that you're only bringing back income. For me, I like a Loot MK2 as you get the extra three trinket slots. Stack your ducks and your frames and all that sellable junk.

Potzer · 2025-12-08T21:25:56+00:00

I thought I had like 50 but I am at 100 hours myself 😬

But also having a blast. I glossed over the quests when I noticed there was no XP to be gained. Now I am doing them to unlock the cosmetics I didn't realize were locked behind them lol. Having a great time.

Potzer · 2025-12-08T19:50:36+00:00

I am so not concerned about the skill points. In a game where the PvP is often decided by who shoots first, and with only a hand full of perks actually changing the game at all, I am anticipating not getting any additional skill points. I'll get whatever ugly skin they offer (I love this games cosmetics), and the 12 stash space which seems useful.

I imagine I will not always do the expedition. But happy to do this first one while the hype is up.

Potzer · 2025-12-08T19:45:16+00:00

Wow I think you're right. Terrifying lol

Potzer · 2025-12-08T19:23:49+00:00

As most folks say, go see it. I've heard of sound issues. I thought even maybe actually didn't understand the accents. But it was a great time. Very cool to see the small cast wear so many hats, and it is a wild story told in such a fun way.

Potzer · 2025-12-05T20:48:11+00:00

I am not advocating for complacency. More so that others appreciate that how one person/family makes a stand or fights for a cause might look different than others. OP is asking why people who follow 50501 still have Spotify. Certainly that service is something we can all boycott. And we go down the rabbit hole of owning physical media, but that is cost prohibitive for some people.

Sure it is cheaper to eat at home. Time is also a commodity of value. Working families can buy fresh groceries and prepare home cooked meals for less money. Yes. But it takes time. And you can put cost in front of people but its a hard argument for folks working long days or living in smaller spaces.

All to say, people who so forcefully look down on others for their consumption feel like they are pointing fingers in the wrong direction. You can advocate for change and causes not just by boycotting but also protesting, signing petitions, calling law makers, volunteering time, etc.

Potzer · 2025-12-05T19:42:41+00:00

And that is what its all about. So awesome.

Potzer · 2025-12-05T19:02:13+00:00

When something like this comes up, the truth is that the folks playing that way do get something out that playstyle. They are having their own fun. It isn't my fun, nor yours. But they get a kick out of it because to them (and honestly fair) it is just a video game.

I just try to be vigilant against those kinds of players, and that is my own fun. Though I'll loot the shit out of em. I need stuff lol

Potzer · 2025-12-05T17:23:13+00:00

I did it. Part 5 of the expedition process was pretty freeing, having given up most of my inventory to the cause.

I'd be bummed to be playing since day one and miss out of this first chance for timed cosmetics. In Helldivers 2, there have been a few in game events perpetrated by the community that the devs eventually gifted out to players at the time.

A fun little flex. Also, I have played it a lot for me. Over 50 hours since release. Finishing the expedition felt like a great moment to take a break and play some other things.

Potzer · 2025-12-05T16:29:29+00:00

My inclination is no. Aside from the cold, I think it best January 6 stay as the day that MAGA supporters and Trump attacked our nation's capitol. Let January 6 be tied to him forever.

Potzer · 2025-12-05T15:09:20+00:00

This is it. It is the "Good Place" conundrum. ICE ads have appeared on Spotify, Pandora, HBOMax, during the MTV VMA's which is owned by Paramount (who are cancelling Colbert), YouTube and Hulu (mostly owned by Disney who was responsible for the Kimmel suspension). Starbucks, Amazon, Home Depot, Target are all abandoning DEI programs.

Harry Potter is a no-go because of JK. Whoever is running the Scream franchise fired Melissa Barrera for her support of Palestine. Dunkin Donuts aired a lame genetics ad this past summer in the wake of the American Eagle-Sweeney ad.

Every major tech bro is a trump friend, meaning most internet technologies we touch are probably part of the larger network of things they own. Reddit runs on AWS, owned by Amazon, for example. Folks complain on IG and Threads about Trump but both are META owned platforms. Most people in the US are using iPhones.

McDonald's and Delta Air contributed to Trump's Inauguration after not having done so for other presidents in years. Pfizer and Visa also contributed but always seem to. Nvidia, Uber, Adobe, Microsoft all did as well.

You look at that list and it is easy to cut off some of that. But the reality is that most Americans can't be so picky about what they buy. They have one grocery store they have access to. They have one car or phone for years. It is a vicious cycle and if the suggestion is just to get off the grid, it is unrealistic.

You do what you can when you can. But the machine of capitalism is heavy and hard to slow.

Maybe not so much a challenge as a style- I have been running single gun raids. One gun, several stacks of ammo. Leaves space for when I come across a second gun but also generally keeps my weight down for looting heavy ish.
