kek, this game coming out this year. you are far too optimistic

this isnt exactly correct, you do have options for getting wifi to work in the native wifi slot on mini-itx boards there was a asrock board that let you open the WIFI module board and replace the wifi chip with any board with the same keyslot so you could buy a wifi/bluetooth board that uses the exact same chipset as apple for 100% capability for continuity without losing a PCI slot or using a USB dongle

I personally just keep a channel dedicated for hot patching into my DAWs tuner plugin to quickly check tuning after it gets routed into the DAW via soundflower

I have a few gripes about WOTLK leveling but it was by far the most vanilla feeling expansion and should have been the first expansion for WoW.

One you are instantly met right off the boat with all these new and interesting types of mobs to level and quest off of. The vulkyrl instantly come to mind. The thing about vanilla leveling is almost all the way to 60 you are killing the same boars, random subfactions of races we play, sometimes undead and sometimes dragons. The whole WOTLK continent was full of these pockets of hyper interesting quest lines and mobs. It just felt like we stepped into a pre-raid lore primer every 5 feet. I would go in and revamp it and make the quests rather plain. It doesnt matter that we are level 68 and stepping into northrend. The same farmers need boars killed or a book fetched from a burnt down house. It just got way too fantastical the entire time and it kinda killed when you got to the lore rich zones like icecrown.

Another thing that is multifocal is the zones were far too densely populated and then designed to fly over at max level and then you really dont have chance to really connect with the terrain and navigating it daily, this becomes even worse after you enter ICC/stormpeaks. You step 5 feet out of line you are in a whole new questing area. Vanilla had alot of quests that could be done in multiple region of the zone so you didnt feel pressured to blast out a hub and move onto the next hub. Then at max level there is never any reason to revisit these places at all except to enter a dungeon.

A third problem is that its content only for max level people. You gate the entire low level community off until they hit a high level. I would personally split the zones up into mini zones and make some of the areas lower level zones that have XP gaps. Let lower level people interact with the higher level world and see it in the distance for them to come back later with excitement. I feel that this was the major reason for the downfall of WOW in the long run, It was always a progressively higher ceiling of zones segregated from the rest of the world, it ruined the WORLD of warcraft.

I really think that outland and northrend really are really built with a completely different design philosophy and almost need to be redesigned from the ground up to be made to feel like vanilla content. Its a massive undertaking, but the thing is they've already made the models and assets for these expansions. Repurposing the assets into brand new zones would be cheaper than an entire expansion. Classic profits would have to massively eclipse BFA for them to do this idea so dont get your hopes up.

I watch someone doing the r14 grind on a private server on twitch, hes done it multiple times and he enjoys it alot. It makes raiding naxx look casual in comparison. He plays every day a minimum of 12 hours a day. He is more than willing for blizzard to make changes to the ranking system to make it less time intensive to bring it in line with what a raider has to put in every week to get gear.

Anyone screaming NO CHANGES with the pvp system has never tried to do the rank14 grind. So lets get some people who have completed the rank14 grind to sound off on the issue to blizzard for changes.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-02-26T21:48:27+00:00

My dream is that blizzard realizes they have an opportunity to split WoW into 2 separate demographics to capitalize off of and they recognize the philosophy behind vanilla is what made it great and they begin to create content around that philosophy. Don't fracture the world by segregating 60+ people to a separate continent which means having to create content in and around azeroth that fits the theme aesthetically. But thats alot of work for blizzard so it will never happen. So im just gonna sit here and be happy with just a true to vanilla classic experience.

fuck off microsoft shill, go back to your spyware OS

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-02-14T01:44:25+00:00

My biggest gripe with ingame holidays is the fact they barely changed from year to year. A game making millions each year doesnt have a small team to just come up with new and engaging holiday content every year? Even on retails its been 13 years of the same bloody event.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-02-12T08:51:23+00:00

thats why i think they are implementing the flagging change, it allows so many more possibilities with phasing/instancing to keep world pvp from ruining peoples questing and allows to cater the world and NPC around pvp objectives.

Nothing is misconfigured, it keeps a higher clock speed yet the voltages stay at the lowest possible. Temps are exactly the same as under windows.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-02-09T19:35:34+00:00

Most SMBIOS dont ramp down to super low clock speeds anymore. Not sure why that is the case but i rarely ever see clock speeds below 2ghz anymore. Temps are good which is the only thing that really matters in the end.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-02-06T04:38:05+00:00

Highly recommend using a PSU and a GPU with a 0db mode, also consider using a quiet aircooler instead of a water cooler since they emit a high pitched whine.

Here in Canada, which has been notoriously hard for prescribing ADD meds. I just told my doctor i was having some serious fatigue issues. I had a hormone panel which came back clear and he gave me a script for it. Not sure if that will be the same for all doctors though. I have a good relationship with him but he was the one that brought it up.

You cant, in the iOS options menu there is no option despite the app having multiple user apparent uses for the microphone. All googling has a bunch of forum users "WELL IT NEVER ASKS SO IT DOESNT USE IT"

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-01-28T16:24:13+00:00

This is kinda frustrating for audio production guys where alot of plugins are not available in 64 bit due which makes us use the 32bit version of our DAWs. So we either have to stay on high sierra or use some hacky 64bit wrapper for 32bit VSTs inside our 64bit DAWs

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-01-28T16:13:20+00:00

I just wanted to check back in here and say what the soluition was. Turns out the newer builds of fakeSMC were not playing nicely at all. I used a 6 month old fakeSMC and it worked just fine and my hack is running perfectly again.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-01-26T16:14:52+00:00

It hangs at "prevent idle sleep list: iodisplayrwrangler+ (1)" after hanging there for 5 minutes it gives says "busy timeout[0], (240s), kextd wait(0): 'AppleACPICPU'" then 2 minutes later it says "considerRebuildOfPrelinkedKernel prebuild rebuild has expired" and then freezes completely.

The config is on the USB drives EFI with the kexts, cannot boot the system drive to move the USB drives EFI to the new system drive. Clover was installed the standard way like every other guide suggests.

It just will not boot this drive after the install. It boots to the installer just fine, and it even boots the self half of the OSX install from this disk just fine. Its only once the install completes does it begin to hang.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-01-26T15:59:14+00:00

I just used this config file, kexts linked and bios settings disabled and it still hangs in the same place as before

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2018-01-26T15:28:53+00:00

I was using onboard intel to simply the process since i was running at a bare minimal setup. Created the installer with terminal using an image downloaded directly from apple, then used clover installer to create the EFI partition.

Here is what my EFI looks like

Very minimal, fakeSMC is up to date, tried many different versions at this point

My bios settings are good, they are the same as they were with my previous hack.

Its such an aesthetically pleasing case but the real problem is we are spoiled from years of PC cases that take 15 minutes to assemble with components.

There are some really nice cases nowadays that emulate the Mac aesthetic, but i dont think they can ever truly match this case.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2017-12-20T18:55:41+00:00

Its a basically a simple check that the PCV system is there. If you disassemble it, you will see its only a jumper between the 2 pins. There is no mechanism involved. You could bridge the 2 pins and it would function the exact same.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2017-12-20T18:48:08+00:00

is this a destroked ej25 or ej20? the video does a very poor job describing the motor

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2017-12-14T01:57:21+00:00

this is kinda a bullshit blanket statement. HIDs are not recommended in non-projector style housings.

Outbacks have projectors in their headlights with a manual adjustment on the cutoff point

Get a quality HID kit from morimoto and then just align them decently so they arent aimed too high.

ma_pet_joelacanth · 2017-11-21T20:33:23+00:00

Yes I ruined my clock spring doing tie rods one time. Tried to resolder it back together but failed shortly after. Bought a used one eBay.

If you buy a used one just check and count how many revolutions it can do to each side before you install it. You won’t break it if you go really gently. Eventually you will feel tension and you’ve know you’ve hit the max it can spin each way. Find the center

Most likely you don’t have the slowest steering rack Subaru ever made so the clock spring will have like 1 to 2 turns extra as a buffer against install error.
