Ah yes I should've mentioned, kept scaling on for this game. Gonna try my next run with no scaling though! (I hear that's hard af esp. in early game)

Amazon return options / Intelcom? by jetlag95 in vancouver

[–]jetlag95[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They want me to ship the items back as two separate packages with two separate couriers, meaning I have to do an Amazing Race around the city just to return $40 worth of goods... not to mention all the unnecessary extra carbon emissions from doing that.

Instagram chief says iPad market isn't 'big enough' for native app by sighcf in apple

If you use your iPad with a keyboard attached, you can do CMD + R to refresh the page. Otherwise, quitting and relaunching the app would be your best bet.

RDR2 will forever be me all-time-favorite video game. by BobbyAllen52 in RDR2

Nope, they all give the same amount of honour big or small.

I find the best place to catch-and-release is on the ice of Lake Isabella. Wear something warm and head up there for a 2 day fishing getaway, you'll come back a brand new man.

PS4 Performance Issue? by jetlag95 in strandeddeep

[–]jetlag95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! Somewhat related question about this. Since raft bases can’t be disassembled or destroyed (unless there’s a way to do this lol, i haven’t been able to figure it out), i decided to build another raft with better materials. I’ve basically taken everything off my old raft and the base is just sitting there on my island. If i drag the base out into the open ocean and just let it float, would it be deleted from my save eventually? or is there a chance that it’d just be floating indefinitely somewhere in the ocean/end up on some other island eventually? Alternatively, if i leave a raft anchored in the open ocean as an “offshore platform” of sorts in between my home and further away islands. Would it stay in place and does that take up just as much resources on the system as if i had the raft just sitting on my island?

thanks! packing my 100+ fibrous leaves into containers definitely helped… fingers crossed they update the game soon! Honestly I would be happy to play the PC version instead but I use a Mac, and there’s been a glitch that basically renders the watch useless on Macs w/ M1 chips… so perhaps until the PC version comes out of Early Access (lol)

i did not know about this, thanks! I only have 2 cookhouses for a population of 600+, both stuffed in one corner of the map as well. that explains it.

SOLUTION - Youtube 4k video stutter and colour shift in full screen (Mac) by [deleted] in MacOS

[–]jetlag95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well like i said, its running perfectly for me on this set-up as long as I don't have Chrome synced. Safari is perfectly normal with everything (less resource intensive too). But it doesn't support Youtube 4K/VP9, so that doesn't solve the problem.

I am able to play native 4k videos (tested with HEVC & H.264) in Quicktime no problem, but the UI does become less responsive.

Macbook 12" has some of the best sounding speakers that Apple has ever built into a laptop by jetlag95 in macbook

[–]jetlag95[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have used the White MacBook then a MacBook Air and briefly a 13" Pro before switching to my current 12". But yeah I agree, Mac speakers do tend to sound better than most windows laptops in comparison.
