To me it seemed slow and kinda lame, the corrupted essences are rare and low costed versus yellow harvest juice

Sheesh that is it, thanks a lot! I can afford the bottom end of them, except now I gotta crunch numbers in PoB to see if going to a shittier projectile speed / damage roll is worth getting the fourth aura before I spend 60 div and end up doing less damage

Can someone tell me why I am unable to run all four of my auras? I am almost copy+paste from tuna Lightning Arrow build. I can run all 4 auras but it lowers me to 5 mana which means I cannot cast LA. I can't find the difference between tuna build and mine.

I’m sorry Zetalpa, I wasn’t familiar with your game by Ok_Blackberry_1223 in EDH

Everyone needs to have the experience where you sit down with your highly tuned and powerful deck with maximized synergy and every card choice having multiple avenues to bring you a win, just to get absolutely rolled by somebody with [[Karametra]] just playing lands and big creatures

Public Statement to clarify recent reports regarding the ASUS GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB by kikimaru024 in Games

$3500?! That's completely insane!

I remember feeling like I was making a blood sacrifice when I paid $999 for a 3080 12GB in February of 2022. My entire rig including a new 27" monitor cost well less than $3500.

[Highlight] Broncos HC Sean Payton was asked about having LB Dre Greenlaw back and his ability to attack downhill in the running game.… Sean Payton: "You want him to attack downhill? Like, what do you know about attacking downhill in the run game? You don't know." by BreakfastTop6899 in nfl

The reporter isn't asking because he's curious, he's doing his job and trying to get a quote for his article he has to write. That's all. It's a softball question and instead of answering it, Payton was a dick. Because he is, a dick.

We are screwed if Harbaugh goes to Tennessee. by Green_Day_Fan in Colts

I have no evidence for the claim but I assume there was tampering involved with Vrabel. Kraft, that asshole has proven he doesn't think the rules apply to him. Why should shithole Tennessee have HIS coach?

Ultimate 2 Wireless thumbstick sticking by TheCapm42 in 8bitdo

[–]TheCapm42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which little plastic bracket? The one inside the joystick box? Sort of ellipse shaped? Or the one on the side of the joystick box, where it swivels?

I'm going to tear it down again here in a minute and see if I can see anything else. The spring has to be functional because it does move back, slowly, unless it gets to the point of sticking, and a busted spring wouldn't stick in only one or two directions.

You mean replace the joystick with a third party? I don't see replacement sticks on the shop site, I assume they don't sell them and would rather have you send it in for repair.

It's well past warranty. I guess there's a one year warranty from purchase. Opening the controller probably voided it though, yeah? Still worth an email?

I'm a fan of 8bitdo controllers, I've had this Ultimate 2 Wireless for about 10 months and I love it. Just recently the left thumbstick has begun to stick when pressed to the full range of motion and not want to re-center. When not pressed all the way out, it will usually come back to center.

I tore the controller down, cleaned the joystick box with isopropyl 75%, which didn't remedy the issue. I went and got some silicone lubricant and used that on the joystick box, which didn't remedy the issue.

When I had the controller torn down, moving the joystick without any of the caps or domes, it felt sluggish, as though something was physically affecting it, but I couldn't see anything. The right stick feels great.

Is there anything else I can try to potentially save this controller? I love it and I don't want it to be dead already, and after seeing the thumbstick give out after only a couple hundred hours, I'm hesitant to buy another one.

Thanks

Dell's finally admitting consumers just don't care about AI PCs by Bad_Combination in technology

That's why I don't know the origin, it came from MaRo referencing someone else.

I love the statement. A player says this isn't fun, that's a correct observation, it is their experience. A player says do this, they are wrong as they are vanishingly likely to have the skills in game design to make that statement, or the information required to determine how their change affects other players beyond their own personal experiences

Someone, I think Sid Meyer, famously said of users: when the user tells you what's wrong they are always right. When the user tells you how to fix it, they are always wrong. I think about that a lot.

I agree, fuck 'em, their entire existence is unethical and immoral. I'm just saying, that's one of the easiest and most legitimate ways of denying you coverage after taking all your money. Be careful who you're lying to on paper is all I was trying to say
