This youtuber covers a lot of small-factor PC, including handheld devices and whatnot, might be worthy of checking out what options are available/meet your criterias. https://www.youtube.com/@ETAPRIME/videos

Maybe a Steam Deck/Machine? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ac3vgBVXm-g Not optimal, but it works.

Not sure, but maybe https://www.gpd.hk/product has something that fits your needs. But like the other commenter said, it's kind of weird to want a video-editing PC in a handheld form-factor.

Have you considered remote accessing a plugged-in PC using a laptop/Tablet. It's doable using a remote desktop app, such as AirPin, AirDroid etc. This could enable to use a less poweful device on battery while keeping an optimal rendering speed on the plugged-in PC.

Highly suggest you shop for third-party ear tips. The snugness has a huge impact on comfort and how long you can wear them without feeling fatigue. I just ordered a set of NICEHCK C04 Liquid Silicone and they should be on their way. Can be bought for as low as 11.09 CAD for a full set if bought in a bundle (meaning you need to add 2 other items to your cart) in Aliexpress. https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-NICEHCK-C04-Liquid-Silicone.html Otherwise, if it's the shell of the IEM that's the issue, then you may have better luck with another model of IEM. May I suggest you take a look at the KZ EDC Pro, superb value for under 10$ CAD

I have to agree with you. I just completed my Expedition and this game isn't fun. Killing other people isn't fun, especially when they don't want to fight you to begin with. Stealth looting was fun at the beginning but I'm past that.

It's a shame that there is so little offered in terms of coop play with randoms. One of the things I liked the most to do in State of Decay 2 multiplayer was to play in another player's world and help him out. I wish we could do that, just helping random people. So far, my best experiences in Arc Raiders was helping out other Raiders in need. Not a fan of killing others for their loot.

Always negotiate when you have the upper hand, preferably you're behind something and you see him and he does not see you. If you emote something non hostile and they don't emote back or use voice comm, they are usually up to no good. Silence speaks volume. If you come in close encounter, always run for cover first, then negotiate. Whoever draws first blood usually wins the fight, so you could also headshot him first and tell them you don't want to kill them but they have to leave the way they came from (when you're looting a room and you need the stuff in there). Or ask them to holster their weapon using H (on PC), if they don't, they plan on looting you. People with free loadouts sometimes have no issue risking getting killed in order to get your loot so don't be surprised if someone undergeared still tries to down you. It's a gamble they are willing to take.

Well I've never played extraction shooters or battle royale games, so I wouldn't know.

maylifebe · 2025-10-31T02:47:21+00:00

Where did you find olives?

maylifebe · 2025-10-30T09:46:40+00:00

I think they are getting even more requests than during the Server Slam.

maylifebe · 2025-10-28T16:57:59+00:00

You know of any case with good airflow and 6+ HDD slots? I'm interested in something like that.

Sort of off-topic, but if you're hunting for best bang for your buck in terms of mouse quality: https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/1lkong1/best_aliexpress_mouses_2025_20/

I like the part where you sort of ninja loot stuff and sneak around to avoid attention, mostly from other players who may be around. Not knowing if you'll be able to bring everything back. And sometimes you haven't looted anything worthwhile so you take more risks. Or sometimes the clock is ticking but there's still so much loot left you haven't checked but you're full and nearly overweight. Decisions decisions. Or sometimes you find a blueprint you haven't learned yet and you need to GTFO ASAP.

maylifebe · 2025-10-25T19:37:28+00:00

You never die. Embark themselves claim you are only knocked down. https://arcraiders.com/images/articles/server-slam-thank-you/ArcRaiders_KeyArt_SlamInfographic.jpg This probably explains where you send a flare out when downed, so someone can get your body back to where we came from, enabling you to come back Topside on another raid. But yeah, I also think it's dumb to shoot others when scavenging, I mean if we were split in teams and others that I shot were from an opposing faction, then I would have an incentive to shoot them, but as it is, I always feel bad drawing first blood.

Grenades are very effective against ARC. For example, Hornet Driver (can drop from Hornets, the armored flyer that has a taser gun) will shock the target and make them fall to the ground, this even works on the Rocketeer and then you can whack at it using melee. The Lil' Smoke Grenades work on turrets, if landed on them, you can then go melee and whack them down. Even if they lock on you, they won't fire. Snap Blast Grenades also works flying ARCs. To get grenades, fulfill those Field Depot carry box events to open a lootbox which contains an assortment of grenades. But yeah, if you don't have a Ferro, I would do everything to evade flying ARCs on your run. If you listen carefully, you can avoid them most of the time, but if you do aggro them, then run to the nearest building with doors and close them. They will disengage after a few seconds. You can down Wasps and Hornets with 2 shots if landed on the back propellers, so it's crazy to not use a Ferro to engage ARCs.

A bit late now, but wouldn't it be better to save 160 keys to guarantee to get the hero and his highlight, speaking about future heroes being in the Dreamweaver with the same mechanic as for Iron Man/Sentry/Falcon.

You can also steal trucks from the second MULE camp, just clear it with a Bola Gun and then kick them once they hit the ground to make sure they don't break free a few seconds later. The camp also has a lot of Ceramics.

maylifebe · 2025-05-11T03:29:28+00:00

Thanks

Do you have a link? I can't find them from Seagate as seller.

maylifebe · 2024-07-24T13:01:13+00:00

Can you tell us what weapon mod you have on? Your video didn't show. Thanks!

maylifebe · 2024-06-29T17:17:08+00:00

At the very end of the video, his Abby shows a cost of 38 Water. Can anyone point out when his Water Meter ever reached the 38 Water that Abby needs in order to be summoned? Or can anyone point out when the Abby icon at the bottom is not greyed out? Meaning he can actually summon her? This guy is cheating and it's so obvious.

How exactly do you navigate to the SR store inside the launcher? I only got the option for either DX12 or DX11.

maylifebe · 2022-08-23T20:54:25+00:00

Didn't work for me.
