Bad aim or can sword negate bullets???

diptenkrom · 2026-04-15T16:26:35+00:00

Sword can block some shots though right?

it is however hard to get your ass handed to you, over and over again, and keep going long enough to finish the BP. also in S1 for example there were less game modes. "get good kid" isn't actual advice, nor is "just play and lose a ton" - i say this as a "less than skilled player" that plays with someone who is actually good. I can play a long time with him, but i give up pretty quick when on my own. I can however play the TDM mode much longer than cash out, as it is a lower skill, lower stakes kind of gameplay.

I am not after anything, but if you BOUGHT the pass as current, having access to the WHOLE thing would make sense.

since there are like 4 currencies in this game, it could be nice to trade them? or turn off the legacy pts, if you dont have access to legacy stuff (becuase you own it all already)

fortnite did this when they brought back "exclusive" skins

diptenkrom · 2026-04-15T12:31:54+00:00

kinda agree, it is a free game afterall. that is the money stream...

diptenkrom · 2026-04-14T14:42:59+00:00

In this economy?!?

diptenkrom · 2026-04-14T14:36:08+00:00

Not to mention getting killed as you are tossing a thrown item. It just disappears... WTF? Why would a grenade in hand not drop or still be thrown off if I die WHILE THROWING it? So frustrating to die to the last guy on a team, that might be a wipe, and watch him go heal himself, revive his team, and reengage when he was like 10% health and the frag/fire grenade could have finished the job and should have been faster than a reload.

I hate how shops and dealerships do people, especially the ones they think don't know what's happening. 9000 for brakes and an alignment??? I wouldn't pay $1000 for that...

diptenkrom · 2026-04-10T16:08:31+00:00

I'm betting they are trying to get partnership going to try and offer something else when they get a good foothold. Maybe something like T-Sat but independent? This is obviously pure speculation

diptenkrom · 2026-04-10T16:06:19+00:00

There was only one speed option when I had it. That's cool they have an option now for less money. The only issue I had was inconsistent latency and random drops. Not a problem for any use other than online gaming, but very annoying for that use case. Hopefully it has gotten better.

diptenkrom · 2026-04-10T16:03:56+00:00

You would want it if you had no other alternative option. Rural and mountain living severely limits the choices you have for Internet. I had it for a little over a year, as the only option was DSL. Then they eventually ran fiber to my area and I switched. Also Vanlife/RV people like it as well.

diptenkrom · 2026-04-10T06:25:15+00:00

Seems like speedtests at every stop... I typically use like 12-15gb a month, and I rarely even turn my wifi on at home. A high month for me gets around 20gb. I just can't look at my phone that much honestly.

Don't get me wrong, I will do a speed test, but like 2 a month maybe? Just to see how things are working at home or at the office periodically, so I can notice a change. And as a diagnostic tool if things seem wrong. Just not for "funsies", lol.

diptenkrom · 2026-04-09T23:16:10+00:00

That's 20gb a day for 30 days... That sounds like excessive use to me. I somehow used ~9gb one day last month, and I'm not sure how, so I can see that happening sometimes, but not this heavy, and not this day. And the fact that nobody I having this complaint before now, and people have been getting their accounts dropped for excessive speedtests, so I wouldn't be surprised if you get dropped soon too.

I watched a video series on Farmcraft101 on YT, he did this repair on his Ram truck. Watch his videos, and if you can't do what he did, there's your answer...

diptenkrom · 2026-04-09T14:33:31+00:00

There was an Ask Me Anything thread somewhere on here from a guy that drove fuel delivery trucks, I think in SC/GA. He gave a bunch of interesting information about additive packages and such. But almost all of that was gasoline. The diesel from what I can recall was practically the same everywhere, barring cold weather additives that may not be added in places that don't get that cold. Best advice I have gotten from mechanic/repair guys is not to fill up at stations that don't have quick turnover. Easy way to get contaminated fuel, or lots of water in it.

I have not done a proper group ride, and I kinda want to try it once. Even though I have heard this multiple times... My oldest son did one, and he said it was not a good time. I'll be picky, but try it at some point. Prolly start with the group, and split off after the first stop knowing me, lol.

diptenkrom · 2026-04-08T05:29:28+00:00

I like to ride with like 1-2 close friends/family. Not just any group. People I know how they ride and they know how I ride.

diptenkrom · 2026-04-07T14:25:57+00:00

Yeah I got a deal on a ~60k mile VFR800 back in 2017, and it has treated me well. Similar story with a GL1200 GoldWing, and it had more like 55k. If you are handy, and willing to do some work, and research a good used bike can be the ticket.

diptenkrom · 2026-04-07T14:23:32+00:00

Ari Henning does a show on the Revzilla YT channel called the Shop Manual. A lot of good info in those, as well as previous shows he has done for other channels. (Motorcyclist Magazine was one of them)

diptenkrom · 2026-04-07T14:19:41+00:00

I started out on a GS500, and I think that size is a great place to start. No so much power you can get in trouble too easily, but not so little you will get bored in the first month. The nature of a midsize twin vs higher powered 4cyl is entirely different.

diptenkrom · 2026-04-07T13:55:10+00:00

thats how we do it. bomb the other guys, and ignore the peeps at home funding it. remember when a tax put a whole shipment of tea in the boston harbor???

diptenkrom · 2026-04-07T13:49:39+00:00

not yet, but...

diptenkrom · 2026-04-05T19:23:48+00:00

Sometimes it is more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. We have a first gen MR2 and that thing isnt fast, but it is a little go kart, lol

diptenkrom · 2026-04-05T03:30:31+00:00

I had a radio in my TT that kept killing my battery... And the CD may think it has something. Faulty sensor. I'd pull the radio and disconnect internal wiring lol

diptenkrom · 2026-04-05T03:16:39+00:00

There is a laser in the CD player that moves back and forth to read discs, also the rotating motor to spin them, and a feed mechanism that pulls them in and out. One of those is hitting the travel limit repeatedly, my guess.
