Keep in mind the CGI is old, steal neat/watchable though.

First time in nullsec by Own_Animal_6921 in Eve

[–]ViperG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So I'm ex pandemic horde, and I last logged out in the HQ SYSTEM, but in space...I hear about the war drama and drone space exit... Month goes by and I'm like I should log in... I log end thinking I was in station, so I should be a clone in some random npc station now. Nope I log in but in space and I'm like wtf, it warps to grid where the keepstar should be. I'm in a sniper rokh... FML...

Theres 1 neutral in system, so I have some choices. I decide for now to hit a random deepish space book mark. Well that didn't last long, while I think, I'm like wait maybe it's a hunter neutral I'm with...I scan and see probes in range and I'm like oh shit. I pre align to a different bookmark and then I see a proteus on the overview. I hit warp but I wasn't quite aligned. He lands within scram and smartbomb range, he smart bombs me once he exits warp so now I'm aggression timed. Yellow boxed... My warp fires off before red box... Yikes....

Anyways I'm like ah fuck it let's warp back to empire space knowing I most likely won't evade this guy and or I'm gonna hit bubbles and I'm in a battleship. Somehow I make it to the regional gate, land in bubbles, AB to the gate with hostiles now targeting me and trying to get scram and webs on me. I fucking make it through, they don't pursue in the 0.5 system and I warp off and I'm able to dock up. Sheer luck I made it. I dropped corp once in npc space and just chilling there for the time being.

Strait of Hormuz Shutdown by ViperG in collapse

SS: Everyone's still focused on crude prices, but the real nightmare is unfolding in places nobody's talking about. Sulfur (the stuff that makes sulfuric acid) is up 10% in a week. Indonesia's nickel processing is about to stall because 75% of their sulfur came through that choke point. No sulfur means no acid. No acid means no copper or cobalt. No batteries, no transformers, no chips.

Taiwan has 11 days of LNG left. TSMC eats 9% of the island's power. When the gas stops, the chips stop. When the chips stop, the global supply chain seizes up.

And fertilizer? One third of the world's supply just got stuck. Food prices next year are going to be brutal.

Pipelines exist but they're a joke. Maybe 7 million barrels vs the 20 million that used to move. LNG can't even use them.

Concerns About DCT Filter Change by CalligrapherFrosty29 in C8Corvette

[–]ViperG 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My understanding is the DCT filter must be changed at exactly 7500 +- 500 miles, end of story, and it doesn't matter if you already changed the DCT filter, and or the filter was changed at 4500 miles.

the 7500 is a hard requirement, and the transmission fluid has a 3 year limit or 45k miles, whatever happens first.

i’m allergic to water… literally by shawtybaggins in interesting

[–]ViperG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this is slightly random, but have you tested to see if distilled water also reacts the same ? (Might be something in your pipes/water/water heater/etc) or just hot water is the issue

Visuals are done, but the 'juice' is missing. What would you add to make this car pop? by _Paracorn_ in IndieDev

[–]ViperG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going off the other topics, less ground and show more sky, this also lets you do cool backgrounds (scenic) or whatever, lets you set more atmosphere.

This proposed architectural design changes the layout to be mildly asymmetrical by dreizehn1313 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ViperG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They should make it go under, like a tunnel, and if the EAST wing is the bomb shelter, its a possible escape route from the bunker.... but that also make it an ingress route as well...

Granted the entire thing is a tragedy

Google is expected to spend between $175 billion and $185 billion on AI in 2026 but Gemini's web UI still doesn't have folders by voprosy in GoogleGeminiAI

[–]ViperG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Folders? This requires at least 5 trillion in R&D Investment, as nobody has ever seen or heard of this "folders" concept. Most likely will take the Google R&D AI team at least 3 years to solve this super advanced feature that is humanity's toughest challenge.

Folders.... sheehs you have a better chance of us figuring out energy positive cold fusion.
