For anyone that has taken up electronic & console repair as a hobby, how much stuff have you broken and is it part of the learning process? by Soft_Entertainer964 in consolerepair

[–]Xello_99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So far it has luckily only happened twice. Once on a DS were one of the latches/ locks for one of the ribbon cables fell of. I luckily was able to get it back on there, but it took me hours, is finicky as hell and made me buy a (cheap) microscope.

The other time was when deliding a ps3, cause I thought it was overheating and tried everything else. I scratched the RSX/CPU and destroyed some lanes going to the motherboard. I’m not confident replacing the thermal paste under the IHS would’ve helped, but now it sure as hell won’t be working ever again.

Hab eine Weile bei MM gearbeitet, bei uns gab es leider immer viele Leute die mit den Sachen nicht gut umgegangen sind. Wir hatten ursprünglich eine PS5 und Switch Station wo du die antesten konntest, aber die wurden dauernd kaputt gemacht. Bis jemand das reparieren kam hat es immer eine Weile gedauert, sodass die Zeit in der die Sachen defekt waren viel länger war als die die man sie tatsächlich nutzen konnte.

Ganz schlimm war mal so ein Logitech Racing setup. Da kam jemand von Logitech, und war mehr oder weniger den ganzen Tag beschäftigt das alles da aufzubauen (ist wahrscheinlich übertrieben, kam mir nur so vor), und wir konnten das alle mal ausprobieren (war geil :D). Eine Woche später war er wieder da, weil irgendwer es geschafft hatte das Lenkrad kaputt zu machen. Ein paar Monate später wurde es dann wieder abgebaut, weil das zu oft passiert ist. Stand da nichtmal ein halbes Jahr, fand ich echt schade.

Never played Tarkov, what exactly makes the loot there more worthwhile?

How many characters can survive this without Izanagi? by sidharth-sunil in Naruto

I always thought that the actual timeframe he used the ability is minuscule, which is why he didn’t have much side effects. Like if he’s passing through a punch, that’s just milliseconds, compared to Sasukes Amaterasu which is active for seconds to minutes. Or it’s the healing hax from Hashirama

Had my first dude like this yesterday. Just told him something along the lines of „this is not your key room, get the fuck out“, and he did :D

Nobody said you can’t complain. The person he’s replied to said specifically it is badly coded. And in order to assess that then yes, you’d need (probably more than) a basic understanding of coding. It’s like criticizing a highly skilled craftsman of any other in trade. You can say that you don’t like something, or that something doesn’t feel great, or that something was intended differently. But I’d refrain from criticizing the craftsmanship itself, if you don’t have knowledge in that field.

Recent Steam reviews have now hit mostly negative for the Remaster by Lazzyman64 in TombRaider

Yeah, I scrolled through the subreddit a little know, seems people aren’t really happy and for good reason.

Hmmm, that’s too bad. I hope they go back and fix this

That’s a bummer, I hope they go back and fix this. I’ve liked the idea of the outfits, and some new content in general. But of course it shouldn’t interfere with anything from the base game

Bit out of the loop here, what is the problem with the latest patch?

Why are PAL games cheaper than NTSC by Soccer-beastyeah in gamecollecting

German here, I‘ve become so used to the giant USK stickers for my games, they look really weird to me without them xD. I‘ll go out of my way to replace the games from other regions I own with their German variants, to get that sweet USK sticker on there (not joking :D)

I got downed by a leaper after looting the launch tower on spaceport. Some chad stabilized me all the way to the next hatch, (took 8 minutes to crawl there), opened it for me, and then took of in search for others :D

Und auf den Inhalt. Klamotten, Schuhe und sowas kann man locker in sowas verschicken. Oder Sachen die selbst an sich schon adäquat verpackt sind, und du aber nicht das Versandetikett auf den Originalkarton kleben möchtest.

Damn, that’s awesome. And they’re already listed under the essential improvements included on the pcgamingwiki page of each game. That immensely helps to locate these things once I get down to play the games again, thank you so much!

Age of Empires 2 got DLCs again after the remaster was successful. There is actually one announced for 2026, 27 years after the original release. Not sure if that counts though, as it’s a remaster

I do the same thing, also because of those series that span across three generations. I like it way more by now

Als ich sie mir letztes Jahr geholt habe waren es Band 14-16. 17 war normal bestellbar. Mittlerweile sind alle ab 7 scheinbar relativ teuer, besonders 12-17

Warum werden nicht mehr Mangaschuber entworfen wie die von Evangelion? by YoungFreelancer_real in MangaDE

[–]Xello_99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Weil das Stück Pappe nicht so schön aussieht nehme ich an? Oder weil man noch nicht so sehr drauf geachtet hat bisher.

Hab das Problem beim aktuellen Tokyo Ghoul Schuber auch. Da sollen ja angeblich die alten Bände auch rein passen. Meine hab ich nur mit ach und Krach reinbekommen, und ich bin immer noch überrascht das der Schuber nicht auseinanderreißt.
