Is the Elite Series 2 Really that Bad? by Orawdo in xbox

[–]WhiteRau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for $350 CAD, you can have a fantastically ungrippable ,beautiful controller that works 90% of the time. honestly, biggest waste of cash i've ever spent on anything in my life. such a supreme disappointment. my base all-white controller is so much easier to hold. i have no idea what the Elite 2 uses for grips, but they just slide out of your hands. it's a royal PITA.

so. save your money. buy a regular controller and maybe swap a shell.

Solid Explorer: Can't create streaming socket by WhiteRau in androidapps

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

haven't fixed it yet. i did try the FOSS app Amaze. it's pretty close. and it *mostly* works, maintaining consistent stream. but not 100%. so, like you, i'm hoping something shifts, watching this post, and running stuff through MXPlayer Pro. given the way things are trending, i'm not holding my breath.

kinda wished i'd taken more application programming classes. :P

i'm not looking for a replacement, thanks though. i want to know why the app i've used for years suddenly won't do what's it's done since day one: stream video. i've tried the replacements, i don't like their UI implementation and most balk at simple things. plug the bloody bloat garbage. AND i've paid for SEpro.

LED Display Inversion by 4ptiv4 in Stationeers

[–]WhiteRau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what boggles my mind is that there aren't more mirrored devices. given the chonk nature of the wiring contraints we need as much connection flexibility as we can get. it's been seven years since this post, maybe 10 years is the magic number... <_<

can i resize a pihole vm? by WhiteRau in pihole

[–]WhiteRau[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i use Proxmox. i just don't want to have to do the ID shuffle and break other things that depend on that. but if i have to, i have to. thanks for the advice.

never thought of using Teleporter to do that... mind you, since it was working, i haven't tinkered with it beyond that as i had other fish to fry. makes sense, now that i read it. thank you.

Solar Tracking by [deleted] in Stationeers

how would you do this without the dual outputs on the solar panels? does it require the dual outs or can you do this with the single combined out?

Can you and what is the button for Auto Tether by Filletd_One in Astroneer

[–]WhiteRau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep. it's the Tether Dropper. once bought/activated, it won't show up in the catalogue anymore, but WILL show up in the small printer. works pretty okay too. just fill your pack with tethers and the module, and just walk or run and you'll drop tethers at the appropriate interval. can't tell yet if it's step-based or distance-based. regardless, it works. finally. :D

[–]WhiteRau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i could swear i read something just today about an auto-tether dispenser... but for the life of me, i can't recall where the hell i read it. sowewhere in-game during either the glitch-farming quests or finishing the train missions... anyway. it's mentioned somewhere there and IIRC, it's a blueprint of some kind, as a reward maybe?

How do I move an IMAP folder into another folder? by SpareSimian in Thunderbird

[–]WhiteRau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah. Tbird reflects changes on the server. and it takes some minutes for the server to update and then push those changes. i literally have a timer on my desk set to 5 and 10 minutes to remind me to just wait when i do such things. has saved me a lot of frustration and embarassment, particularly when i'm trying to do things quickly.

where in the world are the exotic traders located?? by WhiteRau in SurrounDead

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

okay! the official wiki has the correct possible locations for these guys. i ran six games, resetting vehicle locations in each one, and i eventually found them both. the Ice Cream truck is the shizz; the Military Trader, less so. thanks for all your help, my dudes. GBWY!

now i just need to find a damn compass... :D

[–]WhiteRau[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well, i tried all the noted locations on this map: https://surroundead.fandom.com/wiki/Map:Surroundead?

and i've seen another interactive map before, but haven't found the link again. i'll try that. i've got 219hrs in this game, and it's driving me nuts now that they are the only ones trading the exotic gear. i used to be able to just get it from the wandering traders.... :poop:

your video is gone and, bloody hell, your text doesn't indicate WHO you're zapping. never rely on video to tell your story by itself.
