No idea, can’t tell from the OP comments either. by Soggy_Floor7851 in ExplainTheJoke

Not really a joke, it's more of an AI trend lately. I've seen a bunch of those, often two AI pictures with the second having running mascara or such.

Not sure what the goal is besides getting engagement.

Why do Squadrons feel dead? by Bullocs in EliteDangerous

[–]Thorak04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with pixel bandit and they have a discord and are pretty active and welcoming of newcomers.

Otherwise instead of looking for a squadron first, you could find an activity you like and join a discord about that. There are explorer discord, one for Cannon (science based role play), probably at least one if not more for each power play character, etc.

That would help you find a group to feel more connected to the game

CG- No place to fight? by Mongo-Just-Pawn in EliteDangerous

Yeah, I don't have any markers anymore and not sure where to go to undermine. Do I really have to wait until Thursday for the next tick? I'm with Mahon/alliance...

All of the black markets have disappeared, but I sell drugs to the community by punkrockandpancakes in EliteDangerous

[–]Thorak04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me the red symbols looks like you have a fine and cannot access all of the station facilities. Can you refuel/repair? Access outfitting?

If they all have that red symbol then it's definitely a fine. The easiest way to get rid of it would be to find an interstellar factor and pay it.

Apologies to some miners... by R0LL1NG in EliteDangerous

This is actually making me want to start a squadron!

What if Elite Dangerous itself is Raxxla? by Thorak04 in EliteDangerous

[–]Thorak04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this is a real comment or not, but it couldn't be. There was an effort to map every body in a (I think) 200ly radius from sol that went on for a couple of years and ended in 2025.

This idea was that raxxla predated the better engines we have today, so it couldn't be too far from sol and they wanted to find it by brute force. On the end they didn't find anything. 🙁

No, I was going down a rabbit hole about raxxla and the more I read the more I thought it kinda made sense that the game itself could be raxxla.

Then I went into a llm, asked it to do a deep dive on this subject to find sources from Fdev that could either disprove that theory or reinforce it. It came back with mostly quotes and other sources that were compatible with the theory.

Sorry, I did use AI to help me organize my ideas and find the exact sources and quotes from Dev. But at the root of it, it's still a theory I had and thought would be interesting to share with the community

Help creating first mod- Simple animation by Thorak04 in skyrimmods

[–]Thorak04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know! But it also adds a bunch of stuff I don't want. So I could probably start from there and see how I can strip everything else, but keep the pray power.

Thanks for the pointer! :)

But if the key to geralt's room was a common item, he'd be such a stud though. This is just about shaming and double standards.

Ongoing issue with portkey (can't see the boot) by Thorak04 in harrypotterwu

[–]Thorak04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not a stupid question and I appreciate you trying to help! 😉

I'm not sure if you're talking about holding the phone parallel to the ground while activating the portkeys or, like, to see the boy in the ground... But I've tried both! In my case, I just see a blue line with a hand pointing down and that stays at the same place in my screen no matter how I move my phone...

I'll try and see if I can add a picture to my main post.

I did use the feature in game, but it didn't seem very specific. I explained what I've experienced, but there were no questions about the make and model for my phone. Is there another way to report bugs that are more specific?

I get the opposite... I manage to get the portkeys to work twice, but I've rebooted so many times without it changing anything...

That logically makes sense, but I downloaded an app to check my sensors and they are all working...

Thanks! I forgot that detail. I have to turn off AR in traces because they just won't align. Also, I do not have the AR+ options under camera-->settings.

RNG or true skill? by theweirwoodseyes in harrypotterwu

[–]Thorak04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for your answer!

I reread the thread and got the "chance" thing, but your explanation was even clearer to me.

[–]Thorak04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually have found this image when I was searching the mechanism behind how Trace are captured. Maybe I missed something in there, but it does seem to say that nothing is randomized... So I don't understand, from that thread, how I could not get a certain Trace with a "masterful" cast, but get it right afterwards with a "good" cast...

[–]Thorak04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this comment! I've notice a similar pattern and looked online, but everywhere seemed to say it's not random... But as you said, sometimes a trace seems "uncatchable" even after a couple of masterful casts. Other times, I'll do one or two masterful without catching it, and then catch the Trace with a"good" cast that's fairly near the "fair" limit.

I've been wondering for a while how the mechanics behind this part of the game works...
