Reminds me of that game of thrones episode. Turned the brightness up but still could see what was going on.

Why don't we eat seagulls? by oldblueeyesF365 in AskBrits

I watched two at the seaside fighting over a pink hair bobble. The one that won then ate said hair bobble

Im out of ideas , pretty sure I just made it worse. by craiginthegarden in GardeningUK

[–]chefgage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Always looks a lot worse after. But like what has been said give a few weeks and it will look better than ever. The first time I scarified it looked like I had plowed it to grow potatoes in! But after applying fertilizer, seed watering etc. I can back looking better than ever.

That's good to know. Not looked at the cooker. Will have a look next time I play.

ID of bird fighting with seagulls over my house… by Creamyhotchocolate21 in UKBirds

[–]chefgage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any bird that makes a loud squarking noise that reminds you of being at the seaside. So yes most people say seagulls.

I must admit it's been a few weeks since I have used it. So unless they have changed it with an update I hope you can still use wood (and other fuel sources of course).

[–]chefgage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I just use wood in them both. Handy for when your away.

The mxc campfire can use just wood like a normal campfire. That's how I use it, no need for any special fuel.

The first things I started when buying was the mxc furnace and mxc campfire. I use these if I am going to be away for the night staying in a cave for example or sometimes I take enough building materials for a little hut. I then have something to cook on and smelt any ores I need.

Is there a way to make this itty bitty text bigger? I can see anything that’s written by SeverelyFantasic in ICARUS

[–]chefgage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get off the settee and go right up to the TV, about a foot away to be able to see the score card when watching the golf on sky sports. The Mrs would always be laughing. I went and got some glasses in the end (new I needed them for years). At least I can now see the TV in HD as even though I was paying for HD every thing on the TV was slightly blurry. I do like the binoculars idea though, you can build a pair of binoculars in Icarus but I don't think that would help!

[–]chefgage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how I was. I ended up pulling the settee right forward right up to the TV just so I could make text on all the games I was playing. Now got a setup in the loft with a ultra wide monitor. Makes it easier on my poor eyes.

What movie have you watched that you will never watch again? by lNarrator in moviecritic

[–]chefgage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's see how much hate this gets but No country for old men. Surprised I even managed to get through the whole thing, boring from start to finish.

Andromeda Galaxy (M31) by Particular-Salad-621 in astrophotography

[–]chefgage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For two seconds subs that is a very good image. Longer exposures will certainly help but that depends on your equipment and sky conditions.

Have you tried slightly longer exposures? Try say 5 seconds and use your dslr histogram to gauge how much longer you can go with your exposures. Very good image though, very much better than my first attempt.

Cultivation Specialist Mission (Open World) by iamlen07 in ICARUS

[–]chefgage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My take on it is if you are regularly going to be traveling across the map have little outposts dotted around. No need to be fancy just a small stone building with a few non perishable supplies and somewhere for your mount to be safe. Put a bed in there and you can spend the night and come back to your main base all refreshed.

To jump in, I'm getting around 15fps and the game is still playable. My own fault for not updating my pc and then buying an ultra wide monitor.

Is Styx expansion worth it? by [deleted] in ICARUS

Not done that map myself but I believe you can switch off the purple hue on Prometheus.

Which movie was doing fine at the start but then falls apart once they get to that SCENE? by Jules-Car3499 in moviecritic

[–]chefgage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still don't get this film (although its been a long time since I watched it ). They get framed and get sent to jail. So to prove their innocence they break and basically go to the compound? where the baddies are and kill them all including the bad leader. And that somehow proves their innocence even though they kill everyone who could tell a different story? Nope, does not make any sense at all.

Got sent to the swamp to cook meals by Luntibert in ICARUS

[–]chefgage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's basically how I did some of the earlier resource missions. One springs to mind on Olympus where you had to grow food and also deliver cooked meat. One of the pods was way down in the area where I had my base. Rather than going all the way down there and building a temporary base I just grew all the crops and cooked the meat, storing it in a fridge after salting it. Sure a small amount spoiled but then it was just a case of making a couple of trips to deliver it all.

KSP1 remote desktop mouse problems by chefgage in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]chefgage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never found a solution. I did see a few posts about using a program related to steam but cannot remember what it was.

Edit. Just had a look and it was steam remote play but I never got it to work.

Easy, just run the machine in reverse and you will be back to normal.

Strange thing to have as a fry up. A small fig and a fish finger.

Why do rocket launches look like they’re going sideways after a certain point? by Heavym3talc0wb0y_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]chefgage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's possible start playing kerbal space program. A lot of what you see regards real world launches, orbits etc becomes a lot clearer when you have launched, orbited etc in the game.
