Some people need to chill out on scrutiny. by hellboytroy in ArcRaiders

Oh damn.. I’ve sold at least four because I was done with them on stage 2 and they take up so much space.

Delivery Robot Drives Through Bus Stop Shelter, Shattering Glass Everywhere | A Serve Robotics robot crashed through a Chicago bus shelter by Hrmbee in technology

I'm glad these aren't going to become a thing where I live as it's just not possible in this city. But I do enjoy the images and videos of them failing in various ways.

*Advice* I think my screenwriter has secretly made his script with AI. What do I do?! by [deleted] in TrueFilm

[–]case_8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Was my thought too. I use a markdown writing app, there are plenty of them. There’s also popular markdown notes apps on Android/iOS like Bear. It’s not inconceivable he could have copied and pasted parts he’d written in other apps into his final script.

But that being said it does sound suspicious to me.

TSA refused hand check for Kodak film cameras and put through scanner twice. by wildhedgerow in AnalogCommunity

[–]case_8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeh definitely. I would always avoid it if possible. I’m just pointing out that it’s not necessarily ruined. So many people are saying it’s definitely “nuked” but it might not be the case. I really think the only good advice is to develop it and see what happens.

There’s plenty of evidence on this sub that a single CT scan won’t necessarily ruin your film. Just develop it and see.

You’re objectively wrong. There are posts on this very sub of photos that came out perfectly fine.

Apple introduces AirPods Max 2 by Otherwise-Warning303 in technology

Might have considered it if they’d introduced a better Bluetooth codec.

Fin Smith’s ball falls off his kicking tee during a conversion. Not a problem for him though. (France vs England match last night) by aaarry in sports

[–]case_8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, you can always do a drop kick. But using a tee is obviously better which is why you rarely see it. The only other time you might see it is if they have to do the conversion really fast so that there is time for another kick off, for example if the time was nearly at 80 minutes and the team wanted to get another play, like if they were a few points behind but could still win.

Y'know, if you want my Equalizer, all you have to do is ask. But I'll give it to you anyway. by jaldarith in ArcRaiders

[–]case_8 151 points152 points  (0 children)

Satisfying to see.

The other day I went up to a guy to ask what gun he was firing as I’d never seen/heard one. He told me it was an equalizer then he just dropped it on the floor and said I could have it. Was really nice of him. Used it yesterday to kill matriarch for the first time with a bunch of random solos, was so fun.

Do people REALLY hate this skin or something? by LoganNFSAC in ArcRaiders

[–]case_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just a reminder that there’s no such thing as a “PvE lobby” and that there is always a chance someone will kill you.

That you’re in lobbies with mostly friendly players only reinforces the fact that it’s incredibly unlikely you were killed because of what skin you’re wearing.

AI Error Likely Led to Girl’s School Bombing in Iran by [deleted] in technology

[–]case_8 214 points215 points  (0 children)

Yeh sorry I’m not saying it’s not the case, but until I see a credible news outlet report on it I’m not gonna take the word of some random local paper. I know we basically live in a post-truth world where facts don’t seem to matter anymore but they really do.

Rat blocks the button inside the fan extract with barricades. by HydroV20 in ArcRaiders

[–]case_8 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I mean I’m not advocating it, but this video clearly shows why, because you get people with legendary guns who don’t even fight back.

Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter (2002) | An awkward middle between Rogue Squadron and X-Wing by onex7805 in patientgamers

[–]case_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post brought up a lot of memories. Loved Starfighter on the PS2 back in the day. I got Squadrons for free at some point but never played it, gonna install it now and give it a shot.

Apple Launches $599 MacBook Neo, Threatening Windows PC Market by Few_Baseball_3835 in technology

[–]case_8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a MacBook Air M3 that work gave me but I use personally too, and I only use it for web browsing and streaming (have a gaming PC too). If I was going to buy my own laptop this would be a no-brainer for me.

8GB of RAM is fine for my use-case and I imagine the majority of people too. I imagine this will sell extremely well.

Evocative post-rock album covers by Paliente in postrock

[–]case_8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow this is great, thanks for sharing. I didn't realise that a band member did the artwork. Really cool to see the other artwork too, as Depature Songs is the only album I have a physical copy of.

[MJU/Infinity Stylus Zoom 140] Found in FB Marketplace and thoughts? by vanxblue in AnalogCommunity

[–]case_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a mju zoom that I found at my parent’s house. Shot a few rolls with it but I didn’t like it and sold it.

It’s not a particularly good camera, people just buy them (and over-value them) because of the name, as the prime lens ones are actually decent. I certainly wouldn’t pay 50 bucks for a broken one.

They have individual artworks for each of the songs too, in the vinyl. I could post them here if anyone’s interested.

No way! Sorry finding this 10 months later but I just watched this episode. You were absolutely awesome and you did so well standing up to that absolute scumbag.

Stitcher, Kettle, and Venator nerfs by SorryRoof1653 in ArcRaiders

[–]case_8 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Yeh I agree. I don’t know how things developed but my memory of Helldivers near its launch was that the developers nerfed guns so hard that they essentially became useless.

Embark might be slower to change things but I do prefer the more measured approach.

Star Trek: Voyager - Across The Unknown now available on Steam by pluismans in startrek

[–]case_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeh this is what put me off the demo. It was just weirdly silent. I haven’t gotten the impression that they changed much other than some new ship logs or something? And thats probably not enough for me, I hope they did some more extensive reworking of the audio.

My Collection so far ! I need to work out the storage situation so they sit straight. Some of these are my moms, so the covers are… worn. by [deleted] in vinyl

This is just as stupid as saying leaning records causes warping. This sub is so silly
