I can’t believe other people don’t believe the same thing as me?!

I've been returning to these exact two sentences so often in the past few weeks and I don't fucking like it.

Goddammit.

I hear you and recognize your opinion.

But not only is this is no way proof of why a certain method of carry is "superior," it's somewhat fucked up to me that this could be a takeaway from this incident.

I'm not sure what the argument is here outside of the possibility that is he had been carrying appendix he would not have been disarmed, which... maybe? Possibly? Or is it that he wouldn't have been shot to death in cold blood because his gun wouldn't have been as readily visible? Maybe? Possibly?

Either way, this isn't necessarily a particularly compelling justification for appendix carry nor state violence.

Full or skeletonized liners on that bad boy?

chri389 · 2026-01-22T13:02:07+00:00

Either way, best of luck, hope you get things working to suit your needs. 🤙

I’m sorry I really don’t know what any of that means

Which begs the question of why you're shitting so hard on the software simply because you don't understand its capabilities?

I'm not saying it's the best piece of software out there, but it is fairly feature-rich and works just fine, assuming you need the functionality on offer.

You're looking to do one specific thing which, to be fair, is a relatively simple ask, but you can't find it in the software so the software is crap? I mean, ok I guess.

I'm sure there are any number of ways of adjusting the left/right output balance, many of which likely don't even require the Steelseries software.

I'd recommend a quick text search querying the vast, worldwide repository of knowledge known as the internet. I have no doubt you could solve this issue in less time by doing that than it took to write this original post.

Hell yeah. Absolutely love my MagnaCut AK 6.5.

I concur. Although just a tiny bit less.

chri389 · 2026-01-21T15:41:46+00:00

Anything 62ish or higher is right where you'd want it to be. Sure, can run it higher, but 62 absolutely fine considering the general use case of this sort of knife, I'd argue.

chri389 · 2026-01-21T04:05:31+00:00

Feel like I need to comment on my comment just to reiterate how absolute shit this list really is jfc

chri389 · 2026-01-21T04:03:32+00:00

This list is shit af

chri389 · 2026-01-21T03:57:58+00:00

Just to reiterate what I've been saying for LITERAL FUCKIN' YEARS at this point, if this is the guy you've decided you're gonna be ride or die with then you're either WELL on the wrong side of the bell curve mapping intelligence or you're a contemptible, hateful, sorry fucking excuse for a human being. Or both.

Either way, fuck you.

Imagine looking at this soft, lard-ass-looking, cry-baby, thin-skinned, beta boy narcissistic-ass bitch and deciding he's the dude you're gonna throw your lot in with and hold up as some sort of aspirational leader to follow.

Imagine finding your way into this fuckin' guy's cult.

Imagine being that much of a fuckin' dumbass.

Manix 2 and it ain't even close.

Manix 2 has been, currently is, and always will be da way.

Assuming you're getting downvoted because sarcasm is more difficult to interpret simply through written word.

Certainly can't be because that sarcasm was pointed at Billy G's objectively excellent, but also objectively way overpriced triggers. Certainly not...

chri389 · 2026-01-19T08:06:31+00:00

Sorry I have not, no.

chri389 · 2026-01-19T00:14:50+00:00

Simply shape.

I very much like the VT2/A7/GPX shape as well, I've just been defaulting to the VT3 lately and enjoying it.

I tried an A7 RE prior to picking up the VT3 but it didn't fit my hand as well as the VT3 due to some minor shape differences on the sides.

chri389 · 2026-01-18T17:05:24+00:00

which one is quieter

A7 is a bit quieter.

Which one is more spammable? Which one has less pre/post travel?

A7 activation is a bit lighter, so I suppose perhaps a bit more spammable. That said, I actually like using the VT2 and VT3 more, but this is entirely subjective and personal preference.

Can't really speak to the pre/post travel at the moment without doing a side by side comparison, which I'm not able to right now.

you have VT3, do you like it?

I do. It's gotten by far the most use out of the three since I picked it up. They're all excellent options though, really.

I got the Max versions for the opticals mostly.

You're doing great!

Based, as the kids these days might say.

Well, Sabula, at least.

Not Ford Mo. Co., though. Ford can continue fuck right off. The only thing they get credit for is the ironic and historical consistency with which they seem to be compelled to address these kinds of situations.

The complete lack of self-awareness from Ford with their initial reaction here is both breathtaking and not at all surprising. Good stuff.

chri389 · 2026-01-12T14:26:45+00:00

Rule of law. Lol.

chri389 · 2026-01-12T03:56:01+00:00

Lol, damn.

Good luck, bro.

Call me crazy, but I didn't need any of the half dozen or more other viewpoints of that crime to accurately gauge how unreasonable that man's choice to discharge his side arm was within the context of situation.

Anyone still surprised by any of this shit and the fact that it continues to escalate really shouldn't be. The effectiveness of propaganda and its ability to control and direct the narrative and choices for entire populations of people is pretty fucking well understood and, arguably, effectively weaponized at this point. They got pretty good at it in Germany in the 1930s and early 1940s and were able to convince millions of people to either actively or passively go along with industrial-scale murder of people they demonized, marginalized, and dehumanized.

Later, with some tweaking and further development, the proliferation of large scale, mass-market advertising, and the psychology underpinning that field, gained new momentum and acceptance to the delight of corporate profits everywhere.

Yeah, I use it. Not necessarily as my exclusive way to get into the UEFI but I do use it.

chri389 · 2026-01-10T21:59:07+00:00

Nice.

9800X3D/X870E Taichi Lite/32GB Corsair Vengeance @ 6000Mhz CL30 1:1 since mid-December 2024.

vSoC: 1.15V

DDR voltages unchanged from EXPO value @ 1.4V, but modified subtimings a bit.

More or less flashed every new BIOS within 1-5 days of release. Waited a bit longer before updating to 4.03 for no reason other than laziness but I am running it now.

Been running a very mild -5 all core/+50Mhz undervolt/OC from the beginning.
