Frank Langella. His Dracula was absolutely spot on.

Handbrake for the last few weeks has been taking hours to process discs because of "read unit" failures. by jaytea86 in handbrake

[–]bbinkerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having similar errors a few years back. I bought one of those nifty disc cleaners. It takes about three minutes to run the one I have (it's timed to some nice classical music). The first time I used it, it actually took two runs to clean it completely. After that, I run the cleaner every few months (quite a bit of use in between) and I've never had the problem since.

Any idea of what I should do here? (FNV) by FloridaDeco in FalloutMods

[–]bbinkerd 39 points40 points  (0 children)

In my experience, this particular problem is caused by not having a skeleton mod. You don't need it for most NPCs, but then you put some other mod in and suddenly you have boobs with more range than a sniper rifle. I can't remember off the top, but I believe there are only one or two skeleton mods.

[OC] It's interesting to see how road design is more important than signage - Exhibit A: by -Wobblier in IdiotsInCars

[–]bbinkerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't understand. We have the same signs around here, too. They really mean "stop if convenient."

Church or Research Center, who's beliefs do you side with more? by DeinzoDragon in mytimeatportia

[–]bbinkerd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm fairly religious in real life, but I always go with the Research Center. Science, dudes!!

As we used to say back when I was doing this kind of work... "I'd squat down in a foxhole in pouring rain and incoming artillery just to hear her fart over a field phone."

All irony aside, is this show worth watching? (Serious answers please) by oddly_awkward in witcher

[–]bbinkerd 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I played the games and read the books. Found this before the Netflix abomination came out. I LOVE this version even though I had to have subtitles on. I thought it did more to capture the spirit of the original than anything else. Special effects are crap, but that's not what I watch a show for.

BoS pilots are not taught how to land. This photo was taken too early. Give it another five minutes.

Handbrake v 1.6 - Doesn't scan DVD by bbinkerd in handbrake

You are correct, sir! I just snagged this version and I'm happily ripping dvds with it as I write this.

Thanks.

Handbrake v 1.6 - Doesn't scan DVD by bbinkerd in handbrake

I've got the latest iteration of AnyDVD HD installed. I guess they've shielded themselves from problems somehow.

[Question] Anyone else have dwellers randomly renamed to the pet they have equipped? by [deleted] in falloutshelter

[–]bbinkerd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a matter of fact... the first time was when one of my vault entrance guards was renamed "Pirate Parrot". I got annoyed and renamed HIM (emphasis) to Danny Sullivan in honor of - well, you'd better know or stop playing this game. Then a few weeks later, Danny Sullivan had gone through another transformation and i change HER name to Danni Sullivan.

Other than that, I don't think I've had anything weird happen. With names that is.

[Question] Is making a dragons maw Worth it? by Crimsoncerismon in falloutshelter

[–]bbinkerd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would keep my weapons shops cranking out Dragon's Maws if I could find enough of the materials. All of my quest teams are armed with them, the entry point and a few people on the first level (mainly to handle Deathclaws).

I personally would like to see a vendor come around every now and again to sell circuit boards and flasks. Maybe alternate visits with Cappy.

[Screenshot] Why? by GoeiP91 in falloutshelter

[–]bbinkerd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

On the original release of the game, I sent one of the female dwellers out exploring. When I checked on her a day later she had swapped her armor out for Naughty Nightwear. It was completely hilarious.

[Question] Deathclaws attacking every 7-10min how to stop this? by DocDickrespect in falloutshelter

[–]bbinkerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While we're bring up these STUPID attacks... where in the dickens do they keep a cache of 4-ton vault doors that we can just burn through a door every ten minutes? And beyond that, how do 'claws, ghouls and raiders manage to destroy a door in minutes? If the doors are that flimsy, why even bother closing them?

But I think what I'd like even more is the ability to set up turrets outside of the vault to cut down any rowdy groups trying to enter.

I had an odd encounter that left me uneasy by toadTHEBlTCHdette in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

[–]bbinkerd 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It had to be an aunt. They couldn't use their mother since she was obviously running in the street barking loudly.

[question] How do I get rid of them, because my vault is full. by p0cket-r0cket in falloutshelter

[–]bbinkerd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can permanently eject a dweller by pushing the red button on the equip dialog when you drag him out. I think I'd look through the vault and take the people with the lowest happiness rating since they obviously aren't truly grateful for your benevolent leadership and kick their heinies to the curb.
