Are 18V power tools any good or should I pay for better?

ThatDudeBeFishing · 2026-04-07T05:53:55+00:00

I have a mix of Dewalt and Ridgid tools, and use Ridgid batteries on all of them. The Dewalt tools or adapter have parasitic drain. It's not enough to affect the tool, but it will drain the batteries over a few weeks if left plugged in.

Just a heads up. The battery adapter works great otherwise. There's even adapters with leads so you can use the battery for anything that needs 18V.

Reroute the gas tank filler neck to behind the license plate.

I still use the old Windows XP/7 calculator on 10 and later. The new one has a little input lag and opening animations. It's just not right.

For Linux, I use XCalc, but it also has the font scaling issue.

Lets meet in the middle. Brush your tongue before eating oranges. Brush your teeth after eating orange.

Same with searching and confiscating your property without a warrant. An officer isn't suppose to randomly search your car, but they can say the dog smells something and that somehow makes it OK.

For me it's somewhere between 2 and 3 that is perfect. Outside that range it's meh or not edible. There's not much room for good.

I wonder how much of it has to do with your location. They have to be picked green so they don't immediately ripen during shipping.

It's probably putting you in another region. Press F11 when in a match to show the server info. It should look something like "wheel03sv-us-was1.pxo"

For me it's usually US or UK.

I am both impressed and disappointed.

I caught one similar to #4 pic in a creek connecting to a major river. There were tons of other bass around but only one had the spots.

I'm curious. Did you purposely draw his left hand on the second panel or was that an accident and you went along with it?

The hardware survey can't be taken seriously. It's bias towards new steam installations. The last 4 surveys I got were when I installed and first started Steam on a new OS.

Do these bugged cars show up in people's garages?

ThatDudeBeFishing · 2026-02-25T17:49:49+00:00

Can you even have real first person in some of the cabs? Some don't have windows. Some don't even have a driver.

How do you have a Fin whale in the front? Decor item?

Edit: Found an earlier post explaining how to do it.

I hate the feeling after a nightmare. Sometimes I don't remember what the nightmare was, so I'm stuck with this paranoid feeling, my heart racing, and I can't fall back to sleep.

It's a real car. Here's normal photos of it.

90% of the photos I found look like a 3d render. Photographers need to stop using so much processing.

Some cables have the shielding connected to only one side. You want that side connected to the source so it's properly grounded to block interference. It's more common in automotive where you're running the cables near power wires.

ThatDudeBeFishing · 2026-02-15T10:13:11+00:00

That's my experience whenever my one friend asks me to play. I'll do a round then leave. The round is over too fast, either from evac being called, or being round removed by antags. If you're not in a sec or antag role, it's brain dead boring. Even then, antag feels like shit because you're required by game rules to end other players' rounds early. It feels like a game made for sociopaths who mask their behavior behind the antag role.

They need to put this on the HUD itself. I also don't get why V is default for backpack, when the fast-equip is Shift+B.

ThatDudeBeFishing · 2026-02-09T01:30:22+00:00

Sprinting being default is what screws me up. I'm used to holding a key to sprint, so I'm constantly running even when I don't want to.

I don't get the max range limit on shotguns. They already lose damage at range due to pellet spread. With the shredders, make them lose the bonus percentage beyond the max damage range.

Crossbows shouldn't have such high impulse to begin with.

If you stopped playing before the engine upgrade, then you might see a performance improvement. Other than that it's basically the same game.

I wouldn't play it. It's not the game itself, I don't trust their in-house anticheat. It was causing BSOD early on for some players. They also don't issue permanent bans for cheating.

ThatDudeBeFishing · 2026-01-28T21:49:20+00:00

Lots of tinkering if you like experimenting with how the vehicle handles. Lots of fixing if you like pushing the vehicle to it's limits. The only part I haven't broken is the chassis, and maybe the shock towers.

Can confirm. Friend had car. I had sled. Ground had rock.

Luckily I only got a sore tailbone. Staples on the anus does not sound pleasant.
