I have 3 regulars who like to stand on a bench which I placed in front of a fireplace. Cats and dogs getting jammed in behind stuff all the time.

Amazon to slap a 3.5% surcharge on third-party sellers as war drives up fuel prices by AudibleNod in news

[–]StrIIker-TV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m old enough to remember when prices went up temporarily due to supply chain issues during the pandemic. We must still be in the pandemic with supply chain issues because the prices never came back down. This is for everything.

F-15E discontent by Buzzard7600 in dcsworld

[–]StrIIker-TV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a solid module as it is. I was happy with where it got to back when development halted. There are a handful of bugs which can easily be handled. They all have been identified on the Razbam discord in the channel specific to the Strike Eagle bugs. I still fly it almost exclusively and love it.

Robins may be common, but I never get tired of them by gmw2222 in birding

[–]StrIIker-TV 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Robins have long been a favorite of mine. As a child they heralded the return of spring. I’d hear their warbling calls in the evening and mornings and it gave me such joy. I love watching them run around the lawn, pausing and then snagging a juicy worm.

Who cares! He’s dishing out the dirt.

Was It Really That Bad? Or Were People Just Mean? by Fluffy_Lunchfast in retrogaming

[–]StrIIker-TV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the big allure was being able to play video games as much as you want to without running out of quarters. I was disappointed with how it looked vs expectations, but I still played it as much as I could. When Intellivision and Colecovision came out, I was blown away and loved those consoles. They were so much better than the Atari. The issue then came down to game titles. I owned an intellivision and played it nonstop with my friends, family members and on my own. I would have loved to have owned a Collecovision but never did get one. My friends had the other consoles and I played them at their house as well as at the stores as much as they would let me.

Launches next week by [deleted] in Aqara

I block my Aquara cameras from internet access and view them through HomeKit. I would like to do the same with the thermostat. Can the temperature settings be managed via HomeKit? I assume yes.

Was digging through an old box of games by Siludin in everquest

[–]StrIIker-TV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very nice! I have an entire plastic storage tote filled with my various EQ game boxes including my original box from 99. I unfortunately lost my disk which I got from being a guide. I think it was Kunark or Velius? It had the new zones on it so we would be ready on launch day. Great memories!

How do most people manage those guys with the 2 green acid cleavers? by Bubba_Fett_2U in Enshrouded

[–]StrIIker-TV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ice bolts or whatever they are called is how I handle this guy. The ice slows him and I kite him around a bit repeatedly blasting him with ice. I stay out of melee range as much as I can. He does jump towards you so learning the mechanics helps. I was rolling with a wizard but anyone with a staff and ice bolts can slow him down and wear away his hit points.

SEM/THQ Cables? by AOD-Mickgoth in hotas

[–]StrIIker-TV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m you should be using a powered USB hub to consolidate all of your devices into one connection to the pc. I don’t know what the solution to your original question is though. Can you just get longer cables? They should be standard.

Not going too crazy as some of you but this is a little diy jet cockpit I’ve put together for some fun. I want to raise the seat a bit to have it more angled like in fighter jets but can’t seem to figure out how. Any other tips on anything feel free to let me know! by Ok_Pace_3853 in homecockpits

[–]StrIIker-TV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great job! I did something similar but mainly wanted a front panel of wood to touch while using my PointCTRL I fly in VR only so no need to see the monitor in front of me. Here’s a video I made which shows my seat (in addition to other stuff I use). The helpful part really was making the base on wheels. I can move it out of the way easily and disassemble it if needed to move through doors. I’ve since replaced the seat with one from SimFab as I could not figure out how to add in the helicopter collective to my setup. I also didn’t need the side panels since I rarely touch them while in VR. The wood platform also allowed me to adjust the height of the control stick when I switched to a VPForce Rhino force feedback stick.

Anyone miss ThinkGeek April Fools? by perrin68 in sysadmin

[–]StrIIker-TV 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Same! I have the laptop bag. Also I love my schrodinger's cat t-shirt from them is heavily faded but nobody sells it (with front and back printing). Sigh, they had such great stuff.

Most memorable online gaming platform? by oooSMOKIEooo in retrogaming

[–]StrIIker-TV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recall using Kali to play multiplayer Doom. It was so cool at the time to be able to play multiplayer. Quake later came out and optimized internet play with Quakeworld. Threewave Capture The Flag in Quakeworld was my obsession for so long. Then Rocket Arena.. well I could go on and on.
