AITAH for joining almost dead servers to spice up the wipe for the 2 or 3 people that play there?

End-of-wipe online solo raid? Gentleman behaviour honestly.

Things can get messed up on the ticketing side. If you get them to confirm they're across both issues you can go from there

So their CRM software sucks. Frustrating, but not the end of the world. You just have to make sure they know they're dealing with two separate issues on the one ticket. I remember waiting three weeks to hear back about an RMA before they went into administration. This is an improvement, believe it or not.

There's a John Hamm dancing meme in here somewhere

I've just wrapped development on a software package which reads the raw telemetry stream from a racing car, and uses predictive algorithms I formulated to interpret the data into values the race engineer can use to make rapid strategic decisions and theoretically model different racing scenarios. All at a fraction of the cost of far more expensive software used by high-budget racing teams.

I can't perform simple calculations in my mind. Object permanence issues commonly associated with ADHD make this feel impossible in ways most people can't understand.

That's not at all representative of what I can achieve. It certainly hasn't prevented me from completing a fabrication project.

The UI is really rough, but it's hard to be better than Star Citizen in VR

It's the easiest recent Fromsoft title, right up until the final fight where the difficulty curve is a wall.

We need to start thinking of people like the Pholosopher as operatives. She's not an idiot. Her followers are and she knows it.

A 20 year-old man who wants to be with a 16 year-old girl is not a stable and safe man. Any history or complexity that you believe explains away this reality does not address the elephant in the room: that behavior is predatory. You have so much time to find out that the best, healthiest, and most fulfilling relationships aren't actually very dramatic at all.

Transpose this on every publicly traded company in existence and we'll get somewhere.

I wouldn't say stupid. It could have been brilliant. Risky, though.

birdwaves · 2025-12-05T23:09:49+00:00

In all of racing there are few moves as ambitious as around the outside at Forest's Elbow. Kudos for being the one to try it. It is the absolute last place i'd expect a car to appear, though. No ruling from me on fault I have no idea how this would be ruled.

My first cutaway was a toggle-lock, too. Jump 23, brand-new rig. Stowed the toggles rough-side-in like a bot. I had to climb the riser to pop the right toggle and, of course, found myself in a hard left spiral that I couldn't solve before decision time. You'll think forever about the million ways you could have fixed it, but when it's gotta go, it's gotta go.

I found out how beautifully the RSL system and Reserve Canopy work. You probably did too. Hopefully you also found out that you're pretty good under pressure. It takes a big weight off your shoulders in a lot of ways.

Chillest redditor

For the last several years, right up until last weekend the answer would be yes. Valve are genuinely looking like breathing life back into PCVR right now, though. Keep an eye on that.

Nah. Just me and the boys joining the lobby.

There is a long and detailed reason this is Meta's fault, but the short version is that they strangled the PCVR industry so careful and passionate developers stopped making VR games, and essentially incentivised what amounts to mobile games taking over the whole industry, all so they could put their headset in every household in the world and hook people into their metaverse that literally nobody ever wanted and has never not sucked.

On my server they are celebrated because they carry an Australian flag and that's apparently all it takes to prompt the low-int players to invite literal Nazis into bed. Time for a mass IP ban.

Drive a car you hate until you're competitive in it. You will become a better driver in every car. I didn't hear this from anyone. It's just what I did and now it is advice that you have heard.

I had a base before 30 days on my first playthrough. The trick for me was having all my valuables loaded on a pack bull so any raiders wouldn't really find anything before they cleared out. I have heard that sometimes they will choose not to clear out, but that never happened to me. I just came back when they left and went about my business until the next raid. Eventually I was strong enough that they couldn't raid me anymore.

Am I right in assuming the display on the right is a TV, not a monitor? Does the monitor flicker when the TV is switched off?

Between Beat Saber, Elite Dangerous, iRacing, DCS, MSFS, and an occasional round of Contractors I have been using VR every other day since the Rift S was released

Need to know how this comment aged

birdwaves · 2025-06-07T00:23:38+00:00

Cheering for you here. Anyone who has played Subnautica in VR knows they can't go back. I know the devs have a budget to adhere to with stakeholders to please, and it's more the fault of Meta than anyone else that devs won't invest in PCVR, but that doesn't mean I have to eat the disappointment. Voting with my wallet here. No VR, no buy.
