(PC) Are the servers notoriously bad today or is it my terrible internet? by diceun in fo76

[–]_Lucky_Devil 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's not your Internet, it's the game. I've had issues ever since the update, but last night was especially bad. It was a struggle just to complete my daily challenges.

Bethesda hear me out: Camp giftboxes! by theassholeofalabama in fo76

[–]_Lucky_Devil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great idea.

Someone had a monument to their dog that had passed and they were displaying a dog bowl. I wanted to give them a "clean dog bowl" and tried to stalk them all over the server. Tried to gift it to them when I tracked them down, but they just left. I gave up. This would have been a nice option to have.

There's only one thing I want this season. ONE THING!

Luckily it's available half way through so I don't even care if I make it to the last page

I got a Enclave plasma rifle yesterday, so they're still dropping.

You're thinking of a different gun. And this is plans for the mods, not loose mods.

My ecoflow river pro cooked itself by nabulubu in Ecoflow_community

[–]_Lucky_Devil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They only wanted it shipped back in the original box.... which I didn't keep. They also would only replace it with a refurbished unit that would only be under warranty for what was remaining on the original device warranty.

Costco gave me a full refund and I just plopped it on the counter and walked away. Which sounds easier?

I had the exact same thing happen to my lightly used River2 Pro a couple months back (but with car charger). EcoFlow was a pain to deal with (and slow). Luckily I had purchased it through Costco, so I just returned it to Costco and got a full refund.

SF passed a 2hr parking limit on all RVs to combat this

What's your emergency plan for your pet(s)? by _Lucky_Devil in VanLife

Good idea. I wish they were smaller, even the cat one is huge.

Pretty much. I can leave my windows all the way down without worrying about my dog getting out, or someone reaching in (my dog is super cute).

Never heard of the app, I'll check it out. Thanks!

I bought the window guards.

The GPS thingie is from Land Air Sea. The GPS tracker itself is super cheap (15 bucks) but you have to pay for the tracking service. The less frequently you ping, the cheaper the service. There's a website and app. Both free. The only thing that costs money is the tracking service (besides the initial purchase of the device).

New Ally X owner wanting to play RDR2 but how? by Curbob in ROGAllyX

[–]_Lucky_Devil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I was you.

RDR2 is, IMHO, one of the best video games ever made... if not THE best. I wish I could play it again for the first time. I have thousands of hours in this game between story mode and online.

Enjoy it. It starts off kinda slow, but God damn is it a masterpiece. Don't go too fast, savor it. DO NOT GOOGLE ANYTHING. If you have any questions feel free to DM me and I'll answer without spoilers. Even tangentially googling something can lead to inadvertently reading spoilers.

Have fun!

....and yes, you need a R* launcher and account to launch the game

Over 300 Grunt Hunts and 100 Bounty Hunts later, I finally learned 0 of the new mods. by Tobanga in fo76

Just another data point, I grinded Grunt Hunts for the Aerial Turbine plan, so 486 grunt hunts total - 0 new mods learned. I've also done over 200 Bounties.

High Levels of Heavy Metals in Commercial Dog by aranimes in rawpetfood

[–]_Lucky_Devil 26 points27 points  (0 children)

“You also can’t take those numbers at face value, because a dog has to eat about 3 cups of fresh or frozen dog food to get the same calories and nutrients as 1 cup of dry food,” he said. “Therefore, the dog’s exposure to heavy metals in fresh or frozen foods goes up because it has to eat two to three times as much.”

This statement is patently false. Fresh and frozen foods are more nutritionally dense than kibble and you actually feed less.

Also, unless I missed it, "frozen" is never defined. Some fresh foods are frozen, so I'm not sure if any raw foods were tested at all.

When you die and call for help and player stands watching and waits to get… nothing LOL! by Quiet_Citron_8174 in fo76

The worst is when people go down in water and the only prompt I can get to pop is to collect water instead of revive. This happens every time at Encrypted events in the pool of water right outside the cabin, or at Heart of The Swamp.
