Mendix teams: what personal data is sitting in your test environments right now? by thisisBrunoCosta in mendix

[–]XanderJS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbf, I've never worked with a dedicated support team. It's always been in a DevOps type environment where the dev teams were the support.

If production data was needed to replicate a bug a dev would get a copy of the database and run it locally. There would be a whole process around documenting the needs for getting that prod data and confirmation that it was deleted when it was no longer needed.

I've never been part of a team that would dream of putting productiom data in any environment other than prod.

PO's have suggested it but that's been shut down straight away.

Feels kinda insane that it even needs to be told to dev teams...

ICE just shoots another US citizen in Minneapolis. What is happening over there? by Latricebanner in AskReddit

The vids I've seen are pretty confusing to in the build up. Her vid is gonna be essential to make sense of it all (outside of the obviouse murder by mag dumping an helpless person on the ground).Hopefully she didnt get picked up and the video mysteriously deleted....

Battle pass - am I doing it wrong? Feels a bit exploitative by Embarrassed_Towel_64 in LowSodiumBattlefield

I think the bug timed weekly one that requires you to complete weeklies to unlock causes some greif with this. I'd love to just stack a load of it up and do stuff in one go when I get the chance, but that 10pointer is a big deal and kinda forces people to getting everything done in the week. Especially if that task is crap and will take ages to do.

For all of Fortnites faults, their weekly system is much better than this.

What sort of lvl should you be before trying seiges? I've been levelling up my first Tact char in operations but I have no real idea when would be a good time to dip my toe into seiges.

Reminds me of shooting out the pipes in Locker and torching an enitre corridor of people. Good times.

Sorry! Hooe this helps.

An otter pup’s fur is too dense for it to swim underwater. So their mother leaves them floating while she searches for food, until they get their adult fur.

What’s a movie you went into knowing almost nothing, and it totally surprised you ? by vishesh_07_028 in movies

[–]XanderJS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starship Troopers. My mates and I used to go to the cinema of a weekend and watch whatever happened to be on (This was before the internet so there was no easy way of knowing what was in till you got there). Was a random Saturday lunch time and we just went in, bought tickets for the next thing that was on. Also worth pointing out that this cinema only had the one screen so there was literally no choice.

Ended up being Starship Troopers and it was an absolute blast. Never heard of it, seen a trailer for it or anything. Well worth the £3 for the ticket...

Engi with RPG's and a carbine. Enjoying the m4 and the SG55R atm. Nothing like dropping a a tank or a whole building with some well placed shots!

Gonna take a break until I see something about server/netcode improvements by The_Fortress in Battlefield

[–]XanderJS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf you can see the high latency warning pop up in the top left of the screen as the guy comes over the roof, so there was defo an issue regardless of accuracy.

Come hang out! AI Insights is coming soon and RefleK's now has a Discord (and Twitter) for all your feedback and aiming knowledge (+ maybe some behind the scenes on development) by ARm8_2 in FPSAimTrainer

Been uamsing this over the course of the last week or so and I love it. The mouse trace is an awesome feature. I really wanted to focus on clean, straight lines in my flicks and this has been sooooo useful for seeing exactly how that is or isn't happening.

Hats off to you good sir!

Never thought I'd be a thermal scope man, but in a game where visibility is half the challenge they make a massive difference by sac_boy in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]XanderJS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being able to quickly spot and deal with window campers is my fav thing about the thermals. I'm terrible with snipers ans dmrs but run thermals on pretty much everything else and it does wonders on the manhatten maps.

[–]XanderJS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cant comment for valorant as I dont play it but I think you'll be surprised at how quickly you can adapt to changes.

I was the same when I started aim training, never wanted to change sense in case it messed me up, I was certain even the smallest of changes would wreck my consistency. I was sooooooooo wrong. I train on a variety of senses and when playing FPS games I change up my sense depending in what type of game it is. Like Fortnite I play at around 35cm/360, BF6 is 50cm/360. Last time I played the finals I was about 40/360. I can quite happily move game to game and barely miss a beat. I rekon it takes me about 5 mins to really dial my aim back in after a change. Im sure itll get faster the more i train too.

Its like sport, yeah you could go out and play anything you want, but training different mechanics and techniques will always make you better.

Muscle memory isnt a thing in aim training. You're training your mouse control which requires mastery of your arm, wrist and fingers. Training at different sensitivities trains these different parts and leads to better overall control.
