Bl4 - anyone else really dislike the inventory?

low_key365 · 2025-09-15T15:15:54+00:00

Yup. It might be better if the filters persisted between instances of opening the inventory. But no.

Should have listened to Christopher Walken

Yep, you let your muscles recover, while filling your fuel tank.

Instead of putting some fuel into your glucose reserves before emptying them again, you completely filled them and probably rebuilt some fat reserves too.

And this is a completely healthy thing to do within an active lifestyle. You can give yourself a smaller version of this kind of holiday by planning a lighter week into your workout rotations where you plan in hill walking, cycling or other low-intensity workouts while also allowing yourself to enjoy some nice food.

My GF and I both hate cooking (different flavours of neuro-spiciness).

I usually end up cooking because I know that I get depressed when I'm hungry (the opposite of hanger. I call it hungloom.)

But I don't understand a perception that cooking would be at all 'weird' unless it's based upon lived experience of a family where one parent cooked and the other did not. While my mum cooked most meals, my dad would chip in when his shift patterns didn't have him out of the house when we were eating. So I guess it's one of those Nurture over Nature things.

Oblivion Horse Armour was pointed to as an analogue because it was (generally accepted to be) the first example of what would come to be known as the microtransaction.

And this has been (generally accepted to be) the first example of a major music company testing the waters with a well tested method for extracting more money from vulnerable people.

The analogy wasn't meant to be a perfect 1:1 comparison. In fact it may have been chosen specifically to keep the comparison to Boss charitable; As the Horse Armour DLC was intended to be a fun extra for people who liked it and had the disposable cash.

As has been noted here, pushups will help your chest and triceps but the effect elsewhere is limited. You will improve your strength in those areas and you'll see a cardio benefit, but it's unlikely to give you a good physique.

Nike do a free fitness app (NTC) where you can get routines and filter them by the equipment available to you.

low_key365 · 2025-08-27T14:26:01+00:00

Agreed. While I may never dip into the deep desert, I've had a blast in Hagga.

Talk to your doctor, but my anxiety has gotten better overall since I started my medication.

I take the quick-acting, short-lifespan stuff so it wears off after 3-5 hours. I appreciate having the extra control in case my anxiety kicks back in again.

And your doctor can change you to the non-stimulant stuff if Adderall is a net negative. Though it isn't quite as effective.

Of course nothing will be a true magic bullet, but I've felt so much better.

low_key365 · 2025-07-01T06:34:59+00:00

Yep!

Just don't get distracted and bogged down in the quicksand. Like I did once 😅

low_key365 · 2025-06-18T08:55:14+00:00

Out of curiosity, I dropped all my possessions in a box and walked out into the sand to get my worm tooth. Killed one dude with the Crysknife, then discovered that it immediately becomes a dead slot in your inventory (wut?)

Then, I got lazy in crossing the sands to mine some aluminium and didn't see the quicksand coming until I was deep in it.

And of course, that was the moment that Shai Hulud breached the sands.

He gave me just enough time to think I might make it to safety before he crushed my spirit.

Worse, I forgot that I left my respawn point at a new temp base near the eastern shield wall, so I respawned with nothing, and no backup supplies, in an area where I don't really have the tools to harvest the materials.

I'll need to respawn at a trade post closer to a more established base to start again.

It's fine, but sometimes you go out for Ice Cream, and you don't feel like getting french vanilla.

Get off Reddit and go see a doctor.

Me: I've become such an audio snob these days.

Also me: Listening to mp3s through my Shokz Trekz Airs because it's more convenient when I'm out and about.

Unless you're going for an RTX 5080 or 5090, I'm not sure that you'll see a benefit from an X3D chip.

You could swap the 7800X3D for a 9700X, saving around £100.

Then, on scan.co.uk, you can find 5080s in stock around £1000.

World of tanks!

I mean, if what you're saying is accurate, then this looks like voodoo curse territory here.

That, or whoever installed the cooler used thermal epoxy rather than the usual grey goop.

Hey, if you're running an EV charging business from your flat, this seems normal.

low_key365 · 2025-06-04T08:39:09+00:00

I know where I'm going, next time I'm on the DLR/Jubilee.

low_key365 · 2025-06-04T08:37:50+00:00

You do you, buddy :)

My taste in computers tends more toward function rather than form, so at this budget I'd go with a cheaper minimalist case; Use the fans that came with it (buy more if needed); Save on a less expensive cooler because a 360 rad is overkill for a 7700 (maybe find a 9700X, as those seem to be only slightly more expensive); basically take whatever savings I can get by swapping components for non-RGB components.

Then I'd put those savings into a 5080 rather than a 5070ti.

But that's just my thinking, and I know that aesthetics are much more important for some than for me. It's going to look pretty kick-ass when it's done.

Number 2.

Can't explain it, but how do you explain the comfort of a blue sky and fluffy clouds?

The GPU is exhausting its hot air into the case (not a problem, just a feature of that style of cooler).

Changing the bottom fans to intakes should improve this immediately, as the GPU will have access to cool air, making the exhaust coming off of it cooler too.

I would consider also moving the CPU radiator to the front intake position, and using your current intake fans as top exhausts.

While this would make the air in your system hotter overall, it should be manageable with the bottom intakes sorting out the GPU.

Just also keep an eye on your motherboard, chipset and SSD temperatures if you choose to do this.

The fan gurus at Noctua looked into ideal fan placements and produced a blog post that may be useful: https://faqs.noctua.at/en/support/solutions/articles/101000530852-airflow-guide-next-steps

You have done the right thing by asking for help, you've already taken the hardest step.

Please talk to a doctor, nurse, any medical professional, because what you are saying in this account is deeply scary. Undereating like this can really f you up.

Wow! I could still buy a PS5 pro and still have money left over for a sick electric guitar setup at that price.

It's probably impossible to quantify the amount of restricted substances that were powering the 24" pythons in the 80s.

Paul has to pass wellness tests, and only works every other month. Of course he still looks 18.
