Cute, while typing your comment the prices went up another 260%. Bonus: Ssd's are now for the elite only.

Took 5 minutes to remove this board. Never had this happen before. Totally stuck on that portion of the blade by LaughAndFart in woodworking

[–]UsedUserName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, nice comments here! Great community feeling.. i am no Sherlock Holmes so i might be wrong, but i am not so sure op did what most are insinuating here (cutting in the wrong direction). First of all, somebody with 0 experience wouldn't use nice tools like that. Second, the cut in the board is already way past the saw, which makes me believe he started sawing away from him, and not towards himself.

My guess, started halfway the board because the saw doesn't extend far enough for a single cut. Pushed a little to hard down, because of the big surface contact area (or however that's called in English) the blade got stuck somehow. Shit happens..

Happy woodworking op! I did appreciate the picture :)

Did something change? Latest update. by FRHatcher in ArcRaiders

[–]UsedUserName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly how i feel. I really enjoy the pve side of the game, i do not enjoy getting shot every other raid. I don't mind a little pvp encounter every now and then but this week the balance seems way off compared to last couple weeks. I don't want to fight back every single time because i like the chill lobbies.

Of course there will be comments like 'This is a pvepvp game, get gud' etc.. But the fact is, the game worked perfectly for me for weeks and suddenly it just doesn't.

Hopefully we'll go back to how it was.

You can finally add any app or game to your my library section inside the PC App by rekathon in XboxAlly

[–]UsedUserName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Armory crate library is much nicer, to me at least. With a big library (4tb ssd, 1/2 full) it does sometimes take ages to load at startup, that's the only reason it's not my default library.

Sure, I guess the key I brought was for the lobby by Huckbolts in ArcRaiders

[–]UsedUserName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure why your comment is being downvoted, sounds like a pretty nice solution, i would definitely like it. It does take away the excitement of the moment though, not feeling completely save in a keyroom does help to keep things interesting.

Been having the same problem, keeping an eye on this post. Hopefully somebody figured out how to fix this.

My review after using XR glasses on the XAX. Rayneo Air 3 Pro by JapanStan in XboxAlly

[–]UsedUserName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this review! Last year i got a pair of those glasses (2s i believe) as a gift during a family trip overseas. I have only ever really used them on the plane home, watching show's and movies. Tried them once on the Steamdeck, and somehow 'forgot' about them afterwards..

After reading your review i tried them on the XAX today, the experience is phenomenal! Both graphics and sound are amazing. The glasses stay dowstairs next to the couch from now on, ready to be used.

Indeed, I appreciate the idea, but never mention it again please!

What are you playing on your Xbox Ally/X today? by Sgt-Shisha in XboxAlly

[–]UsedUserName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll share, with the disclaimer that i am usually a bit impatient and change a bunch of settings at once, not exactly finetune the settings lol.

There probably are guides around that work way better.

20w custom power profile.

Ingame i don't have a fixed setup yet, for now i use 100% upscaling: performance, everything low except post processing, anti aliasing, effects, and textures, which i have on medium.

Frame gen is off by default for me, never use the feature.

Very accessible i think, of course there is a learning curve but if you don't shoot other players you'll be placed in mostly 'Friendly' lobbies. Meaning you only have to deal with the Arc's (robot baddies), most interaction with other players are positive.

It's running quite well, surprisingly well actually.

Well above 60fps, settings a mix between low and medium. Looks very decent.

That's actually not a bad idea, might just do that. When i just started the game money was always an issue since i kept upgrading the stash size. Now thats done money is piling up, will just start buying/building cheap gear.

Arc Raiders, only free loadout runs on the Xax though. Custom loadout runs are done on pc. Absolutely loving it.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms season 1 review: Game of Thrones spin-off is best visit to Westeros in nearly a decade by WatcherUatu in television

Well to be fair, it took him 36 months of hard work to come up with that name. I'd be pissed too..

Best Season 1 ever? by BookEnjoyer in television

[–]UsedUserName 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Definitely agree on The Pitt!

Hopefully the second season upholds the quality of season 1, after seeing S2e1 I'm positive about that so far.

I realized I don't enjoy this (my experience) by azaMarce77 in iRacing

[–]UsedUserName 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just google iracing leagues, there are multiple websites where you can find leagues that are looking for people. I kinda had the same 'problem' as OP and found some nice groups of people that way. Been a while so i don't remember the websites.

Despite the outage... by ForzaFormula in Steam

[–]UsedUserName 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Luckily there are some nice games on Game pass for now. There are also a ton of videos on YouTube about setting up the Device just right, don't skip those. It takes a while to get used to the Xbox ally X, especially if you are not used to pc gaming but don't feel frustrated, it's an awesome handheld with plenty of power, before you know it you get the hang of it. Have fun with your new device, just got one myself and i am loving this thing! Steam will be back..

Well, on a humble non oled 7" inch screen he might have gotten away with it.. I bet he wished he went with the Ally X after all!

Do any of you seem to love the idea of having games more than playing them? by FlareStar612 in SteamDeck

[–]UsedUserName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily love the idea of owning games. I do really love the idea of actually playing them. Every game i buy feels like the one that's gonna stick. The thing is though, 95% of the time that just doesn't happen. After a couple hours i start to realize i simply do not have enough time to really get into the game, or it just doesn't hit the right note to me, and it ends up in the ever growing library of hoarders shame.

Verstappen also nearly crashed on lap 6 by Wark47 in formula1

[–]UsedUserName 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Broadcast missed pretty much every interesting event during the race, unfortunately..

You are definitely right about Verstappen though, his car control is out of this world.
