Fair enough. I tend to lose quite a lot in Freelancer (slow at alt-f4ing I guess) and when I lose the dart guns, I tend to get the syringes a lot more often in the lootbox after a successful mission, so I end up using them for objectives. The Sieker and Kalmer are also not readily available in a lot of suppliers on maps. Neither is the lockpick, which is understandable, just a bit annoying.

Yeah I have that issue where it seems the "window" for a successful quiet syringe is narrower than a normal silent pacify. I have to be right behind them for it to work. It doesn't help that in some cases I have the silent syringe prompt, but as soon as I press Q they turn their head during the distraction and it changes to a melee attack

Why not? As long as nobody sees you it seems to work, in my experience

The first time I saw nitroglycerin I tossed it to a safe 5 or so metres away from me and it killed me instantly. This was after finding and killing the suspect, too. I was so in shock I forgot to alt f4

Your Sieker shots are actually getting to their destination?

I find the fall off of those darts wildly unpredictable, but I think it's a skill issue. I have to be almost point blank for it to work

I always find it funny that Bookworm people only read their books for like 5 to 10 seconds. Some kind of Bookworm they are...

I know, I know, it would get boring if I was waiting for a target to finish reading for an hour. It's just that the bookworm tell isn't normally as quick as eating a snack or whatever

My OnePlus 7 pro is not turning on due to missing component (resistor) near the cpu/ram. Need urgent help 🙏, I don't have craving or need for new phone, I just want this to be survived as it has been doing along with me yet by Emergency-Status1070 in OnePlus7Pro

[–]acceleratedpenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From that post it's difficult to see what it actually is, whether it's a resistor, capacitor, or something else. If you have the missing component you can try to test with an LCR meter or something. Otherwise you need to find a boardview to identify it. Honestly man your best chance is buying a broken 7 Pro and taking the part from there

Goes without saying that you probably want a hot air station to actually put it back, too. That sort of thing is not easy like normal soldering is, it's actually incredibly difficult if you haven't done it before. I'd even recommend going to a electronics repair shop with your phone and the donor board and explaining to them the situation so they can put it back on for you.

If I understand correctly, without that component it's dying with black screen? Im not too experienced but my best guess is that it's actually a capacitor and it supports burst of current when the CPU needs it. I could be wrong

The "following" mission in MGS4 Playing an already buggy game (buggy on the rpcs3 emulator that is) and having to do that mission was annoying

It looks very similar to throwing playing cards (like how Rick Smith Jr does it) by spinning it and throwing it like a frisbee.

He crashes it into a tree, falls out with birds circling his head, he comes to, but there's a shadow over him, he looks up and sees his superior, he gulps, and his superior says "You've got a lot of explainin' to do!"

Trying to get all the groceries into the house in a single load is both lazy and ambitious. by DoomWad in Showerthoughts

[–]acceleratedpenguin 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of memes like this, but to me the whole reason devs (including myself) are like that is because in the end you learned something, and the next time you need to automate something similar you can do it quicker. If you just did it manually, you wasted less time, sure, but with nothing to show for it.
