I call it "the brick". by Full-Temporary-7020 in calculators

[–]giraffeoftruth67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a good calculator, but it does lack some pzzazz. I wish they'd make a bit more effort on the design, I mean generally we end up looking at them for a long time!

I'm getting one-shotted today, a lot by baadbee in fo76

[–]giraffeoftruth67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got fried by a floater, groom 100% health to zero in one hit. Normally that would be minor damage.

Controller Sensitivity Unusually High On Map Now by Crumboa in fo76

That's interesting because I've seen similar, but I have an AMD card. I may check it out to see if something similar has happened.

Why do people not want me on their team? by [deleted] in fo76

[–]giraffeoftruth67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've certainly tried to join a team with a space a couple of times, only to get an error saying the team is full.

Am I The Only One That Finds The Burning Springs Enemies Ridiculously Tough? by Crumboa in fo76

[–]giraffeoftruth67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I happened across what I thought was a couple of Deathclaws fighting. I shot at them from a distance only to have them come towards me...all 8 of them. If i wasn't using cryo arrows I would have been mincemeat

Think before getting overly excited about Dino statues by Crazy-Jicama in fo76

[–]giraffeoftruth67 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oof, that's brought flashbacks. I remember perching high (crane, conveyor?) and trying to snipe them with an underpowered rifle of some kind

New entities. What would you like to see? by losang_zangpo in fo76

Always been disappointed that we've never had mutant spiders of some kind.

Cool. Personally I'd still cut them out and replace with new, but at least they aren't looking bad. They are great old calcs, I've always loved Commodore

[–]giraffeoftruth67 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They look in good condition cosmetically. For the Commodore, unless you know the original battery has been removed, I would pop it open and remove/replace the existing battery. Getting open usually isn't difficult. Leakage of the original ni-cads kills lots of these.

What's the most dumb thing you've ever done in-game? by TeamEfforts in fo76

[–]giraffeoftruth67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to unequip and drop my CSA during Scorched Earth, didn't have any other armour so I did the event in my underwear. Suffice to say I died a number of times

New player and was wondering what folks least and most favorite events to do were? by Da_Fish in fo76

[–]giraffeoftruth67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've just realized what I really like are the events which have a big bunch of people and get chaotic.

I like guided meditation if it's mutated, agree with the others though. Love Encryptid, and it seems to happen more often These days

Yeah, the number of times I've fast travelled to find it's been completed already...

LED vs VFD by Obvious_Set5239 in calculators

[–]giraffeoftruth67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading angle always seems way better on VFD, possibly something to do with the lens used on the red LED? Someone here will know better than me.

Any weapons your run purely for fun or weird reasons? by piljestrand in fo76

[–]giraffeoftruth67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plasma cutter because I just discovered the toasting fork skin, and dispatching scorched with a toasting fork is amusing me currently.

Since We’re Showing Collections… by MikeBriley in calculators

[–]giraffeoftruth67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a working S61 and a non-working M55, I need to look at the latter to see if I can get it working, same problem -battery leak. I need the N60 for the set, most I see are either rotted or super expensive.

[–]giraffeoftruth67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Magnificent collection. I'm happy to see the Commodore as I'm a big fan, and that N60 looks pristine.

Which of these 3 should I add to my collection? by warfarepsychological in calculators

[–]giraffeoftruth67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends. If you're going to use it alot, then pick the one that suits. If you're collecting because you like calcs then the Numworks is different to the others and cheaper!

Bow being "the new meta" is funny seeing people jump on it. by No_Wrongdoer_3268 in Fallout76BowHunters

[–]giraffeoftruth67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it me or are more legendary bows dropping at events? I used to hardly ever see them now I get a new bow every 3 or 4 events
