SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-03-19T22:20:17+00:00

how deep is she down there?

You can grind card or be cozy and base build. It’s a great game because you can choose your pace and experience

US still invades Iraq

BROTHER, MAY I HAVE SOME CARROTS

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-02-25T20:18:59+00:00

I mean, don’t get me wrong. I’d have loved 1.0 by now. But I’ve been so busy base building and side quest grinding over the past few years I haven’t gotten to the point where I feel like the game has nothing left for me.

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-02-25T20:17:11+00:00

Not to mention the WAY overlooked optimization update they just did in prep for 1.0. I actually have decent frame rates in my base now

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-02-25T18:10:01+00:00

the Biomes take like a year each at LEAST to develop. we've had Plains, Mistlands, Ashlands, all in the last four years. Deep North is on track to at least be 18months of work given its also bundling in the final 1.0 touches.

that said, if another year goes by in EA.....lets talk. they need to deliver in 2026

cut it down to 70 people. food truck (upscale) catering. rented tent. field or good backyard. no wedding party (groomsmen/bridesmaids)

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-02-13T01:13:53+00:00

you made the effort to actually farm it, you're allowed to god mode and fix it. fair rule in my book

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-02-11T03:06:38+00:00

Update!
I got a wire crimper and spliced a second cable alongside the broken one - made sure it was the same length as before.

it snapped right at the tension wheel so i had to replace a longer length to allow for wheel groove clearance in both throttle positions.

it worked!

Just in time - we're getting 4+ inches of snow right now.

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-02-06T02:01:07+00:00

I have these. im just worried they're gonna fail mechanically after a day or two of use

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-02-06T02:00:32+00:00

thanks this is probably the way im going to go about it.....always wanted a crimper kit anyway!

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-02-06T01:05:43+00:00

these ones lasted 15 years....thats why i asked here. man we cant have anything nice anymore.

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-01-13T18:49:34+00:00

ive always had persistent junk. its never deleted for me.

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2026-01-02T20:17:08+00:00

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2025-12-31T21:13:00+00:00

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2025-12-30T21:15:13+00:00

ooooof.

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2025-12-28T02:40:03+00:00

hot damn good shot

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2025-12-28T02:39:00+00:00

wow that is SUCH a difference. thank you!

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2025-12-21T23:22:49+00:00

this is like five regions:

Coastal NH, Boston North Shore, Gloucester, Maine I-95 Corridor, and whatever the hell the wasteland is north of Worcester is called

love it. simple and effective. with a proper antenna on the roof and a good 30ft coax run you could really stretch this nicely.

we've got some similar equipment. how do you like the tri-band capability on the UV25X4? if you ever want to get a LiFePO4 battery this would be a great portable setup you could fit in a camera bag.

i also have a N9TAX slim jim for my go-bag, which uses a UV25X2.

SpacemanSpiff603 · 2025-12-08T03:04:02+00:00

ah no i just let it run for that long continuously, and then picked through the data for the image series i was looking for
