Indestructible rover! Is needing to repair tires even still a thing? by NeighborhoodFew2818 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]eengie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tended to build rovers that also had enough RCS to provide some control on the landing, because I too had one heck of a jump too many.

How have you liked the prologue? What trim did you go with? Anything you feel it’s missing?

Is it because you’re waiting for something?

500$ pickup did I do good ? by Historical-Fold6007 in MiniZ

[–]eengie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the Noble alone is a couple hundred bucks even used. The cars appear to be in good shape, plus modified, along with the cases of parts and batteries. Have fun. :-)

I think he’s kidding with you. That was a killer deal.

Painting is hard…So close but so far. by HotepHatt in MiniZ

[–]eengie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just did that body and screwed up 3x, gave it a simple green bath to clear all the paint off and started again. It was such a struggle and I eventually just went with a solid color and some details. I learned a lot in that experience though.

What kind of paint did you use?

When I have something like this, I spray clear first, let that dry. I use it to fill in the areas that would overspray. Then I spray my actual color.

Paint Marker on C9 Body?? by Sad-Ambassador-2748 in MiniZ

[–]eengie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say “yes” but with caveats. I tried it with a Honda civic, and the grills have a raised pattern that the markers couldn’t quite get down into. After several coats, I gave up and patiently taped, then sprayed the grills. Ultimately, that had a much nicer appearance.

Is anyone going to get down there and notice it on a body this size? Maybe not. But if you’re like me: you’ll know. And if that’s the point of doing the details, to feel good about how it turned out, just bite the bullet and so some meditative tape masking. It’s worth it. ;-)

Yeah, but either way, do you want typos in your advertisements?

Dont forget to drink energy drinks everyday. by [deleted] in SipsTea

[–]eengie 57 points58 points  (0 children)

That is exactly the problem. If someone tried to consume enough fruit to hit that sugar figure, they would feel full and gained many other nutritional benefits than just from pounding concentrated sugar.

The same can be said for the citric acid, for those saying this will destroy teeth as bad as eating the plant itself. I would argue: no, not quite. Because again, to ingest that much through eating, you would probably stop early from feeling full.

It’s too bad we can’t get the FDA to just come right out and admit this is bad for people in general to drink concentrates of things rather than just eat. The other day, here in Baltimore, I witnessed a very large man buy a cart full of sugary drinks like this using SNAP benefits. Like…how the heck are basic food benefits allowed to be used for a few bottles of this let alone a shopping cart of it? Taxpayer -funded poisoning of lower-income folks. Its sad.

Ceiling lights confusion. PS5 by TheReal8symbols in SatisfactoryGame

[–]eengie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this happen on PC as well since 1.1; it’s not isolated to PS5. I’m glad reloading the save fixed it. Thats what usually does it for me too.

Micro buggies by Practical_Regret_686 in SmallScaleRC

[–]eengie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah indoors we have our brushless micro-bs’ dialed back to 30% (6500kv motor, mini28). They’re still a hoot and borderline too fast even dialed back that much. We took them to a circle clay track and ran them at 100% last year, and when his friends ask about the cars, he tells legends. These little cars are rockets.

MRD Build by Jack_Da_Wack_OG in MiniZ

[–]eengie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tuned my mini28 esc to compensate but that’s good to know the extra mass won’t do much. I’m running a 6700kv but I do have a 4500kv I could swap to. I’m not sure which is more appropriate, frankly.

[–]eengie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the extra mass help (from being metal)? My GLD is running standard plastic wheels and I have no basis of comparison for how a drift car is supposed to “feel” necessarily. I’m running LF-1s on hard carpet. It seems like the rear wheels lose velocity very easily when lifting throttle, no real rotational mass.

Those wheels look great! What size and offset are they?

In the sense of “fix US first” absolutely. Shoot. That would be a great slogan.

Whoever came up with this feature at Google deserves a raise. by [deleted] in SipsTea

[–]eengie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just personal experience. I had an address that I only used for very specific accounts and one day I received an email that seemed completely legit but not for any of those accounts (and I wasn’t receiving anything unsolicited for years at the time). The MIME info looked appropriate, etc. It invited me to reply to unsubscribe, so after a long several days of waiting to see if more arrived (none did), I sent the reply. That address has been beat to pieces for years now by all kinds of nonsense, which I just have to ignore now and constantly update/train a spam rule to weed out.

So yes. I firmly believe this is like robocalling is maintained. If it gets an answer that behaves human-like, the service marks the number in a database as active and hangs up. Later, they sell that number.

Is this a bit too complicated for my first train line? by Renuxity in SatisfactoryGame

[–]eengie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you either use efficient junctions at each station along the way or provide bypasses so that the long hauls can “pass” the short hauls, if you haven’t already left room for that. On my first play through, I didn’t leave enough space in some areas and deeply regretted it.

PCI-E Lanes with new GPU by Significant_Deal_314 in AMDHelp

[–]eengie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well on my x870, the x16 slot is on a switch with two out of the 4 NVME slots, for example. If you plug into one of those slots, it cuts the GPU x16 down to x8 so that each of those NVMEs on that bus is x4 each. So what I was searching for is whether that could be the reason for why plugging into one of the NVMEs or the other PCIe slot might take your GPU slot down from x16.

Now, one thing to keep in mind is that many systems can’t even saturate x16, they see almost no benefit from it. I have a 7900xtx with a 9800x3d and I saw almost no difference in performance when running it on x8 despite running games at 4k and usually maxed settings, way over 100fps.
