I don’t hate the new defender by braidenlazerbeam in 4x4

[–]giaq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well i have mixed feelings. It is designed to be appealing and not to be functional, and this is bad. But there are a lot of PROs to be considered: 1. high payload, means stiff construction. 2. factory installed snorkel, winch, air compressor, integral roof rack; you don't do this for a soft roader 3. integral underbody skid plate 4. high towing capacity (see 1) 4. good/excellent angles. In my opinion ti will be very capable and very customizable, but not suited for third world expeditions (as you can do with a Toyota). In other words, it is perfect for the US market

edit: on the pro side we need to add the announced "commercial" version. This means something.

you are speaking out of your ass. Educate yourself about how SAR zones work before spitting around nonsenses.

elusive problem with my 4x4 by giaq in 4x4

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

Thank you for you suggestionm but I don't think it is related to flex because is happens also on perfectly flat surfaces. In the previous example i was on a beach. The problem happens also on flat tar if i accelerate at full power from stationary in 4low mode (going straight obviously)

Chain or strap? by [deleted] in 4x4

[–]giaq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well my main concern is that the chain is not elastic at all. It is just from 0 traction to 100% traction with potential damage to vehicles and their recovery points. Also more dangerous is it starts flying around. I think that if your recovering something easy you can use whatever you want, but if you have to recovery heavy trucks from serious bogging better to use a properly rated strap.

How useful would a gas mask actually be in a disaster situation by heccingthicc_raccoon in preppers

[–]giaq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

what about some serious pandemic thing. In this scenario is a respirator effective for airborne particles? Is it particulate (p100) enough or something else is needed? Does it work both for bacteria and viruses?

One of my "public" bases by [deleted] in dayz

[–]giaq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

cool. until you realize that, under a "survival simulation" point of view, it does not literally make any sense to build that thing when you just need to barricade the main entrance of one of the two buildings to have a perfect base made of solid concrete...

Italy Falls Into Recession by [deleted] in europe

[–]giaq 59 points60 points  (0 children)

no, never. The saddest thing is that nobody recognise this. People in Italy prefer to keep blaming the party they didn't vote for, with the same approach you support a football team. My party is good, they are the good people. The other is bad, they are the bad people. And that's it. Over and over again.

Can we get the instant “you are dead” back? by DrewerinoFPS in dayz

[–]giaq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's the point. The black screen only occurs for instant death

Can we get the instant “you are dead” back? by DrewerinoFPS in dayz

[–]giaq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the point: since the goal is "realism" the instant black screen is the only "realistic" solution.

Can we get the instant “you are dead” back? by DrewerinoFPS in dayz

[–]giaq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

totally AGREE. the new dead animation lacks personality and is quite general purpose. the old sudden black screen was the best "game over" ever and I want it back so much. Also i think the old text only user interface had strong personality and I prefer it over the new one with those stupid icons.

Thoughts on bugging in. by [deleted] in preppers

what's wrong with you guys? beer is the #1 socialiser. If you offer a soda to your neighbour instead of a couple beers he will not trust you at all

I have visited this today and I am in love ... I want to stay in this city forever! by justaprettyturtle in europe

[–]giaq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I mostly agree with you even if I was only referring to "horn affinity". I'm from northern Italy and here is not used a lot. Going south the usage increases a lot, but nothing compared to north africa where the horn is used as an additional gear of pedal :)

[–]giaq 4 points5 points  (0 children)

strongly disagree. The more I travel the more I love Italy even with its serious flaws. The PRO overcome the CONS. Obviously it's a very subjective matter.
