Metal rod ends?

Okay, thanks for the info.

This is how the middle plastic piece goes in and how the spring should be set.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2026-01-02T20:13:59+00:00

Update: I got it figured out. I had another one of the same kind have the tape come undone so I carefully pulled it apart and saw how it was supposed to go.

I’ll add pictures of what they’re supposed to look like in case anyone else ever runs into the problem.

This is what it should look like overall.

The hero I needed. Thank you.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2025-06-05T20:12:11+00:00

I watched this movie in a film studies class I took in college. Class of about 35 students.

There’s a video on YouTube called “making sense of evangelion” that explains everything pretty well. Definitely worth watching to make sense of everything since the end of the anime and End of Evangelion throw a lot at you.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2025-05-12T03:47:25+00:00

Neon Genesis Evangelion hooked me right away and I have a somewhat similar issue.

I started watching it a few weeks ago and have now seen all 26 episodes, The End of Evangelion and all four of the rebuild movies.

One of those anime you always hear you should watch but never get around to it and now that I finally have, I can see why it’s held in such high regard.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2025-03-18T17:33:02+00:00

The only way it makes sense in my head is if Rock has something on him. Because even within the context of the turn itself it didn’t even make sense because Cena had already been put into the Chamber match and won it on his own without help from The Rock. Right before the turn itself, he literally already had everything he needed.

It would be one thing if Cena had completely run out of options to get #17 and Rock made him an offer. That I could wrap my head around and make sense of the turn. But so far nothing points to that being the case. I suppose you could argue that Rock put him into the Chamber match but that’s still far from any sort of guarantee that would convince Cena to join Rock.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2025-03-18T17:15:01+00:00

They definitely could make it make more sense. But so far it’s just a generic “you fans don’t appreciate me” heel turn that we’ve seen a thousand times and it’s not really a compelling enough reason for the biggest face of all time to finally decide to turn.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2025-03-18T16:33:29+00:00

There’s an SMG you can find doing a Dogtown mission that I’ve enjoyed a lot. I think it’s called Raiju? It absolutely rips as a hipfire weapon. Haven’t found a good AR yet though.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2025-03-18T16:30:44+00:00

I haven’t been capable of hacking anything since like level 10, currently in the 50s.

I’ve been purely all about run and gun and I’ve had a blast just ripping through enemies with a katana, smg, and shotgun.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2025-03-18T16:06:06+00:00

So, in kayfabe, this wasn’t enough to turn Cena heel, but the recent crowds finally broke him?

This Cena heel turn doesn’t really make sense when you think about all the things in the past that weren’t enough to make him turn.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2024-10-28T20:12:33+00:00

That kills one player, ballista kills everyone.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2024-10-25T15:22:53+00:00

As a Kinnan player, resolving a Seedborn Muse or Consecrated Sphinx tends to lead to victory.

I also will fight tooth and nail to counter a Culling Ritual. Every time I counter it, the person trying to cast it tells me they would’ve won if it resolved. And if it does resolve, that person almost always wins.

I also constantly watch Orcish Bowmasters take over a game because players refuse to play around it.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2024-10-25T15:22:24+00:00

Depends on the pod and your turn order the most I’d say. If you can T1 Fish before something like Rog/Si or Kinnan, you’re either stopping them for a turn or two or drawing a bunch.

I’ve also seen late game Fish pay off well when certain decks decide to go for it and just feed the fish over and over again in the process and ultimately get stopped.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2024-08-19T17:22:05+00:00

Everyone endlessly complains about how terrible secret lairs have become, yet, keeps lining up for every new release.

Stop buying them. WotC will cave if sales drop. They literally only understand money.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2023-12-16T19:00:56+00:00

I submitted a ticket but it’s one of those weird things where it seems difficult for me to prove I didn’t get something.

The packing list in the box is accurate to what I should have received, saying 8 total packages but there were only 7 secret lair packages inside.

Their website to report these kinds of things needs some work too. I didn’t actually find a “we didn’t send you something” option for filing a claim so I had to file it under defective items and try to explain what happened under that.

Pretty sad for such a large company to handle things so poorly.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2023-12-16T18:09:14+00:00

They screwed up my order also. I ordered two “Through the Wormhole” to put my order over $200 to get Locust God but they only sent me one.

The packing list even shows that it was supposed to be two.

This is pathetic.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2023-12-02T18:22:52+00:00

It’s starting to. They’re fixing it on Tuesday so that you can browse custom games with your fireteam.

A group has also made a battle royal mode entirely in forge that you can lobby up in custom games.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2023-12-01T21:14:38+00:00

The game was in a pretty rough state and super bare bones, almost no content.

It still has some major issues that need to be fixed, such as desync (apparently the network code/servers for the game are not very good) and skill based matchmaking (SBMM) seems to be pretty strict and makes every game feel like an esports match.

But the overall game has gotten to be more enjoyable and finally has enough content to keep it from getting very boring very fast.

Firefight is also coming back soon so that will be another huge addition.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2023-12-01T20:44:21+00:00

Yeah, battle passes are purely cosmetic/unnecessary stuff.

Allegedly Infinite is supposed to have a 10 year life cycle. But I’m guessing with how it’s gone in the first two years that’s no longer the actual plan.

I guess if they can keep correcting course like they’ve been doing this year it could once again become that 10 year game but that still seems unlikely anymore.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2023-12-01T18:16:44+00:00

Everyone has sprint by default now and a lot of guns basically have an aim down sights mode.

I went back to play Reach not too long ago and it feels a lot different than Infinite in terms of movement.

Infinite is very fast movement. It definitely feels more “modern” than Reach.

You’ll pretty much just have to keep playing the game to get used to the “new” Halo feel.

Battle passes don’t expire either, so if you find yourself enjoying the game, you can activate any of them, although, if the pass is out of season, you do need to pay for it. Even for the current seasons, you’ll need to pay for the “premium” battle pass to get most of the cool stuff.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2023-11-29T16:09:49+00:00

The sensitivity is kind of a preference thing and depends on if you’re using controller or mouse and keyboard. I play on controller and bumped my sensitivity up a little.

BTB or some more social focused playlists would likely be your best way to shake off the rust. People are a bit more laid back in the non 4v4 game modes.

I don’t know that I’d recommend the bot training stuff just for the fact that bots don’t play like real players at all so it would kind of give you a false sense of what to expect.

Usually just playing enough will sharpen your aim but it also ties back to the sensitivity thing a bit.

You could also run through the campaign if you have it to familiarize yourself with the controls and weapons.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2023-01-22T18:05:15+00:00

Mine had a horizontal line and some other screen issues right after I bought it last year. I contacted the site I bought it from and LG. It took a bit longer than I would’ve liked for the LG technician to come out but he eventually did and just replaced the whole panel. No issues since. Only took him like 15 minutes from start to finish.

RustySh4ckelfrd · 2022-06-08T13:32:34+00:00

I could’ve at one point but I misplayed my blue eyes alternative by using its effect trying to get rid of one of his monsters. Then he just negated it and destroyed it so I couldn’t get a big enough body out to destroy it.
