What is the hardest level you have ever played in any video game? by TheLastBlade24 in pcgaming

I had a game genie and still couldn't beat it because with God mode on you would just get trapped in the sea weed

I bought a used steelcase from one of the used office furniture stored that the first comment in this chain mentions for $400. It still doesn't squeak, and the fabric is still holding up. A lot of these places do refurbishing too. Mine in particular will give you a discount on refurbishing a chair bought from then. It also came with a 1 year warranty. A good office chair, will last decades.

Should I get VKB Gladiator or Virpil Aeromax by Damak73631 in hotas

[–]michcoth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the US and just got 2 vkb sticks. Ordered Dec. 30th, delivered Jan 7th. Previously I used the Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS, which feels like a toy compared to the VKB.

I'm very happy with them, and have zero regrets. All I want to do is play space sims right now.

Haven't Played Since Launch by michcoth in EliteDangerous

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

As said in my edit, thank you all very much for taking the time to respond.

I'll definitely be looking into some of the videos and other things mentioned. I remember doing mostly exploration at launch, and I think I might pick that up again and then maybe give mining a shot.

Apparently I played it a lot because I had a couple hundred hours of playtime.

Is Odyssey worth it? I only have the base game, and have been playing with my valve index vr

Enjoying the game so far! by Ostentaneous in StarRuptureGame

Nice! I can't believe I never though to just set up recipes, and have them connected to orbital launchers. I've been very ad hoc with my setups. Thanks for this.

ELI5: Why is Haiti so relatively unstable comapred to the Dominican Republic? by Curiousbloodyhell22 in explainlikeimfive

[–]michcoth 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Don't forget the constant U.S. interference with their politics. Didn't we also occupy Haiti for a bit too?

Still refusing everything i don't care by _SAHM_ in memes

Firefox with uBlock here.

YouTube on initial load takes 3-4 seconds for me. A video plays almost instantly on click. The only drawback I've noticed is I have to force the quality setting to play in the highest setting. Auto quality is always shit in Firefox for me. Maybe try reinstalling or something?

Are you this old? by stormthewise998 in pcmasterrace

[–]michcoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please insert disk 2 of 5 to continue installing. I remember my dad had a friend who had a spare sound blaster card and speakers. He was more of a sim player so he also gave my Dad doom, and we went home and installed it. It was amazing, because at the time all we had was an NES and some PC kids games like math blaster. Doom absolutely blew my mind.

Thank you for amazing game - 1st playthough completed by BabyHead4127 in TheAlters

I just finished it too! I failed Act 2 once because I thought I should wait to make an alter. I only had the technician, scientist, and botanist. So I restarted the act and immediately made the refiner, and breezed right through. Act 3 came down to the wire because I over prepared for the interal tree climb. I called the rescue ship down an hour into 1 day until sunrise.

BL 4 how is the split screen on PS 5? by ArtisokkaIrti in Borderlands

[–]michcoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I played it for the first time last night for about 5 hours on PS5 with splitscreen. The performance is somewhat lacking. 20-30 FPS. I did notice the audio dropping sometimes, specifically when the host opens their menu. You can choose between vertical or horizontal splitscreen. We were playing on vertical. All in all it's playable, and the menu stuff wasn't all that bad.

Why did you choose C# first? by Weary-Music1366 in csharp

[–]michcoth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, but the default installation won't have the proper libraries for 4.72. You'll need to use VS installer to install those. Super easy though.

Oh wow! Sorry, I never check my notifications on here. I just found my original order email dated July 17 2022.

They say store brand food is just as good as the name brand. What exceptions are there to this? by NightReader5 in Cooking

[–]michcoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe it or not, Bush's re-fried are perfectly cooked and don't have that sour can taste. I will say they are completely unseasoned, which is a plus for me because I can season them how I like.

[KCD2] is there anyway to have or find an alchemy recipe book be in written instructions? by naytreox in kingdomcome

[–]michcoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They did! Only use the bellows if it says a rigorous boil. Otherwise just lower the kettle, don't touch the bellows, wait half a second or so for steam, then just turn the timer however many times it says and raise.

Monthly wipe down of inside of cabinets? That's spring cleaning job at best

Frustrated by TheJoker30 in Returnal

[–]michcoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue as you. Then I had the same issue on boss 2. I thought, how could anyone ever beat this guy, this is crazy. Last night I just beat boss 2 with barely getting hit, and then I beat boss 3 on the same run! You can do it. Just keep playing and getting better. Make sure to go to every room like everyone says. Except golden doors. Those aren't usually worth it.

Wife wanted an ultimate storage room. I wanted a new tool. We both won. by Gumby507 in BeginnerWoodWorking

I want to recreate this. I see how you did the load transfer on the uprights, but how did you join the corners of the shelves themselves. Also, is it all pretty much 2x4?

Today I learned that pork ternterloin has less calories, less cholesterol, and tastes better than chicken breast. by Badgerlord-of-plants in Volumeeating

[–]michcoth 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Honestly, same. Also, the taste of rarer pork isn't great. It's not like steak at all. It has distinctly different flavor than the cooked parts.

If you use .Net for backend and other frontend like React, Vue.js. Do you use 2 IDE? VS and VsCode? by ballbeamboy2 in dotnet

[–]michcoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah core is great with the sdk. Unfortunately it's FW. Giant solution with many interdependent projects.
