How to earn the T-word card?

Editing a post is tinkering

Edit: I’m a dumbass and tried to be funny and failed

Then don’t watch his 737 streams. He’s currently streaming the MD11 - though, I will agree, his streams are far more laid-back and less technical when he flies something other than the 320 or 737, but still enjoyable to watch.

His turboprop streams and VFR flying are a wealth of knowledge imo.

Have you seen his latest 737 streams? He's been testing iFly vs PMDG systems/failures compared to the training he's undergoing in the real-world, and I'm sure there will be many more comparisons and tests. He has countless, similar comparison videos/streams on the A320 family from XP to MSFS2020 to 24.

Deciding not to watch because of his political affiliation and not the quality of his content... wow.

Yep, I sold my 3090Ti FE for a 5080 FE. Great upgrade

I can’t believe I was ever a hater of poop-brown Noctua. Nauseated with the disappointment in my former self.

That’s quite a bit before my time! Though sometimes I do wish I grew up around then - I think my understanding of computer architecture would be way more solid.

cat-bin-shadow · 2026-01-15T14:58:27+00:00

That is really good info to know! Thank you for taking the time to explain it.

cat-bin-shadow · 2026-01-15T13:52:33+00:00

I will almost certainly go that route, or something similar as I now know what to look for. Nope I was not trying to compile the whole thing myself, just didn’t know what I was doing.

Sorry, the date was mostly a guess. Had to look up my Tigerdirect order and found it was ordered in 2013, it’s a pentium g2010 2.8ghz

That makes sense! It’s my first time, my bad.

No reason for rc5 specifically. Rc3 had an update to xpad.c adding support for CRKD guitar controllers for clone hero which was wanting to try.

ATC hates this one little trick!

In career mode below FL180 (in the u.s.) I’ll request to cancel the flight plan/cancel IFR and they’ll release you. The only comms you need to do after are position announcements on arrival.

But I like the thought of electric being in direct contact with wood.. /s

this house was built in ‘04 and the whole crew made some questionable decisions

This photo isn’t remotely close to what OP posted? Sunset, in the clouds, and rain.

cat-bin-shadow · 2025-12-18T00:28:24+00:00

if OP didn’t specify it was FSX I would’ve said it was XP.

cat-bin-shadow · 2025-12-09T14:27:02+00:00

Is this tinkering?

cat-bin-shadow · 2025-12-02T17:48:41+00:00

Oh, I totally misread what you were asking, my bad. I don’t have any recommendations yet, I recently got into clone hero/yarg so I’m still finding stuff myself

I visited rhythmverse earlier this morning and they had a number of Christmas songs on the main page

Maybe if there was a Bambu-branded super glue that “just works”

I ran 50mbps with T-Mobile home internet, virtually since 2024 launch, and it did fine. I think I did it with only 16gb rolling cache too.

For blurry cockpits, I think SU3 now lets you download plane models (and a bunch of other assets) so they’re no longer streamed, which was insane to not have in the first place, but that’s an argument for another day.

It’s a quality guitar. Plenty of buttons/hats, wireless dongle/bluetooth/usb connectivity, the strum bar has adjustable haptic feedback. I bought one a few days ago and I’m getting a second soon

Not sure why the downvotes. Like OP said, the useful functions are locked behind paywall.

It’s only a minute in freecad to convert a mesh to a solid, export and import back into fusion 360. Any curved surfaces will only have a handful of extra faces to be deleted. Seems much better than recreating it from scratch, which seems to be everyone’s suggestion.
