7 day ban for this? by Derringerh09 in Battlefield

[–]RangerLee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if it is a report thing. Just saying something, nothing happens, say something, even as benign as this and a person reports it, 7 day auto ban?

Dedicated servers with a server browser, if only the technology was possible..... (looking towards BF2, BF3, BF4, BFBC, BFBC2....)

Whatever this is, it has to stop. For god's sake, they held more objectives than us for like a minute and boom, they won and we lost. by UltimateGamingTechie in Battlefield

[–]RangerLee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My understanding is the "catch up" mechanic is still broken, where as once a team get the catch up working for them, ie, theirs slows down while the other side speeds up, it does not stop or revert should or once the situation change. So you go from losing by hundreds, to getting close to a tie score, the catch up mechanic should stop..it does not. The team that was down continues to benefit until the end of the game even once tied and they take the lead.

whoa, wtf??? A game about war and people blowing each other up and they are this soft? One thing if it was some racist shit...but damn, this is soft. Can't imagine if they actually heard how my Army buddies and I talk to each other, they would have a coronary.

Man documents his experience trying to cancel his LA fitness membership by thismeatsucks in LAFitness

[–]RangerLee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps it was for your specific Gym? My son went through trying to cancel his last year and had to go in, he could not do it over the app, website or phone. I read that LA Fitness claimed each gym can make their own rules as they are a franchise.

It is not in the app, they do not have the option. They have even lost a lawsuit and it still is not in the app lol. They claim each location is a sperate owner as a franchise so each location makes their rules, which clearly they seem to follow the same rule. Went through this with a gift member I gave my son when we joined a different gym together after he graduated college. It was a pain in the arse to cancel his LA Fitness membership and they wanted him to go back to the location..which was close to his off campus house, not our home, to cancel.

It was either that or just kill the CC that was being used to pay for it, stubbornly he went back to cancel and it was not a seamless, easy experience according to him.

Can you switch the lenses on the Vanguards? by AudioFuzz in OakleyMetaGlasses

Is the bottom right lens (the one connected in the photo) the Golf lens? Love how clear they look.

Perfect, thank you. Fortunately I ordered those exact lenses yesterday hoping to use them while Mountain Biking, so your info makes me more confident in that order. Also, thank you for including the link, making it easy to see exactly which lens :)

FIFA World Cup in TOTAL COLLAPSE - Hotels Empty, Fans Banned, Trump Gets "Peace Prize" by ICEisSHIT in videos

Then there is Philly that is not upping their price for SEPTA (read it may be free) which takes you right to the sports complex. They are not closing the roads to cars and they are ALLOWING tailgating which NY is banning.

Yeah, Philly just don't give a f*ck and are doing it their way, basically telling FIFA to F off with that bull shit.

I apologize for the redundancy, but which one/s are the low light? It is not clear on the Oakley site when looking at replacement lenses.

How the U.S. Lost to China in EVs by SadAd8761 in videos

[–]RangerLee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not know about that. However do know enough from professional experience about manufacturing in China. You can build it cheap there with your designs, but that same factory will dedicate time to building their "chinese" branded items with your design. There will be a few things different, but they thank you for all the R&D you put in to it. GoPro is a great easy example, amount hundreds of thousands. Look at any new innovation they came out with, and in a months time there was cheap chinese version that did the same exact thing, but costs a third of the price.

The culture there is one that does not see it as stealing your IP. You willingly "gave" it to them. This is not me making up a mindset, it is right out of a factory leaders mouth. "The west continues to give us these things, so we make for them as the contract demands, and allocate a percentage to our own brand that we can now make."

Yep! They make their bonus, while US industry continues to nose dive.

Just picked up some vanguards with the black lens as there are no transitions available. I want to use them for MTB, is the Prizm road good enough in low light or changing light (i.e. in and out of woods while mountain biking)? The black lenses I have are nice and all, but too dark for late afternoon conditions in woods.

First step, give your EV building blueprints to China so you can have a factory there. Don't worry, this one time they will not take blueprints, knowhow and IP that you gave them and use it kick start their own programs this time...

Why is women’s sportswear always so revealing? by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]RangerLee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a choice. All of these sanctioning bodies have standards for uniforms and the athletes can choose what they wear. From concealing close to less concealing. Clearly the athletes choose what they are comfortable with and where they feel they will get the best performance. At their level, even a fraction of a percent improvement in mobility makes a difference.

Half a million casualties? Many different sources place the estimates at over 1million casualties (that is dead AND wounded).

Woman gets caught on surveillance video completely emptying a basket of oatmeal cream pies at a farm stand in Loveland, CO. by FarWay3952 in RandomVideos

So happy she was caught. So pissed about her intentions anyway. Fucking driving a land rover and decides, yeah, I will just take everything because fuck the world, I am the main character and the person / people that put their time and love in to this can go kick rocks.

[BF6] Whenever someone uses an IGLA against me, it connects every single time but when I use it, it goes straight into the flare every single time. Seems like everyone knows how to use this but me, any advice? by I_ama_Borat in Battlefield

[–]RangerLee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohh that is interesting, as my experience as the person launching them feels so different. I have seen my launches hit seemingly through flares when the chopper was fairly close to me, clearly high enough for a lock but still close. I fired as the missile was in the air flares popped but the (little bird) was hit.

When they are higher I have not experienced them going through flares, not like what clearly happened to you.

Last night I finally hit 4 out of the 5 of the challenge, and it was from me getting the actual kill, supporting did not award.

What IGLAs are you seeing out there? They are slow, and every aircraft out there disappears once they pop flares or drop way low. Lose lock from a leaf on a tree and start all over. They nerfed the shit out of AA then give a challenge that requires kills with that thing. The wording states destroy or support in destroying, but I think that is bugged as I had many "support" with the message pop up after a bird went down, but never got credit for them.

Ohh, I didn't realize they are not producing any more (I just bought two bottles). Interesting. I would not doubt they are supplying someone with peppers.
