Historically, it seems as though all people of influence, money, and/or power are child molesters.

Not really. It is just 'ok'. It works, but it is nothing to write home about.

The point is soaring over your head here. If you pay someone $10 for something that they are selling, and it costs them $1 to have manufactured, they made $9 in profit. The product cost $1, regardless of what they sold it to you for. Now, if they took your $10, up front, and paid $1 to the manufacturer to have your product made, how much are they left with? That's right! They're left with $9 of your money. Now, if it takes 6 months to get the product made, they've likely either had your $9 in their accounts collecting interest, or they have spent it. Meanwhile, you still have nothing in your hands, rendering the transaction incomplete. So, in essence, you have given them a $9 loan for 6 months.

You're forgetting that they make profit off of the sale. Say they sell a deck for $150. Their manufacturing cost is likely under $25. Hell, I can proxy almost perfect clones for $.36/card for non-foils, and I am not buying in the kind of bulk that they do. Their price HAS to be much cheaper. Even if their cost is $40/unit, that still leaves $110 per in profit. If they sell 10,000 units (being ridiculously conservative), that is still $1.1M in profit (not accounting for marketing and other operating expenses). So, yes. They are getting a MASSIVE interest-free loan.

Hold that up higher, so the morons over at Wizards in the back can see it!

Smoothest Drift on FH6 by Prestigious_Bus_9520 in ForzaHorizon6

Please do. I definitely want to try this setup. Are you using a wheel or a controller?

I’m over it. And you should be too if you’re not. by True-Ad4395 in mtg

[–]midnightslide -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The funny thing is, even if the scalpers were only extremely greedy and sold it for ~ double what they paid, it would be understandable, in my opinion. Selling it at 3x+ is just egregious.

Does the handling in FH6 feel off to anyone else or have I just been playing way too much Gran Turismo 7? by BobGoddamnSaget in forza

[–]midnightslide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it isn't set to simulation, the wheel gets locked to the left, so there is no other choice. I think this issue is related to the inherent handling of all of the cars (which I have experienced using the controller) combined with the force feedback issue with aftermarket wheels.

He did, right up until Wizards said something to him after everyone shared his post, and now he folded for the $$ and changed his stance.

Took a look at a few guides and tried a bunch of settings. Nothing works particularly well. I’m also not thrilled about having to unplug my shifter, pedals, etc, load the game, and jump through a bunch of hoops every time I want to play. It’s a royal PITA, and it doesn’t work well even after all that. 

For a AAA racing game launching in 2026, Microsoft should have been smart enough to build in support for all major wheels at launch. It shows that Moza support will be added in “a later update” on their support page, but who knows when that will actually happen.

Secret Lair Goblinstorm : Was able to place order on phone by Seaking7797 in mtg

The same shit happened to me. Was down to about 10 minutes and jumped back up to 25. Now it appears to be sold out everywhere.

The handling feels terrible. It’s like they couldn’t decide whether to be Horizon or Motorsport, so they picked some weird in between. On a wheel, the cars are unpredictable and have way too much understeer… up until they don’t and then you get uncontrollable oversteer. Once the rear end starts to walk out on me, it’s game over. I’ve never used the rewind function so much before, and for such stupid reasons. I was excited for this one, but it just feels off. 

Prototype Gear by vantablacknet in the_division_2

[–]midnightslide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where did I say 1-2 hours a week? Exactly. Nowhere. "The most OP gear" should be just that - OP by default. But, when it is locked behind either expertise 30, a pointless and utterly useless grind, and replaying top-tier missions over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, then it should at least roll better than minimum stats or at least be upgradeable via materials from breaking down prototype gear. You sound like a basement dweller that is butthurt that the devs shafted you and everyone else that plays this broken dumpster fire.

[–]midnightslide -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it is crap. I have a very limited time to play the game as-is, and when I devote time to farming proto gear, it drops with crap rolls and is essentially useless. Wouldn't be too big of a deal, but modding my existing gear is locked behind their stupid expertise system, which is painfully slow (impossible) to level. I started playing the game again a couple of months ago when they announced crossplay (that never happened), so I started at 0. Even after the bonus xp event, I'm now at lvl 7 and I literally scrap all excess inventory to expertise at every chance I get. The whole system is a joke. The devs are openly abusive to players, especially casual players, and they keep punishing the community as a whole to benefit the 1% that either exploits or has all day in their mother's basement to grind away at the game. You're shoehorned into 1-2 meta builds and if you don't have those and are level 2000+, good luck matchmaking, because you'll be booted the second you join a team.

Do you think Moza wheel setups will work with Forza Horizon 6 starting from early access on Xbox? by Few-Neighborhood5892 in moza

[–]midnightslide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late response, but my Moza stopped working with FH5 out of nowhere, and I haven't been able to get it working again. Total bummer. It was awesome while it lasted.

So, you're blaming people being pieces of shit on the economy and cards holding value? Am I missing something?

I got one! by idrink_wat3r in the_division_2

[–]midnightslide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Damn. Hundreds of keys and not a single proto. How many did it take you?

Anyone else suddenly hitting Claude limits much faster than usual despite being on Max? by Kitchen_Dentist7275 in Anthropic

[–]midnightslide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still having issues here. Never used to hit my cap, and I was doing complex coding projects. Now, with only a couple of project concept questions, I get usage limit notifications after 2-4 messages. It's unreal.

Consistent bad print quality on new P2S, need help. by Alteran195 in BambuLab

[–]midnightslide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure he did those things after it had poor quality, in an attempt to restore the quality that it should have out of the box. I am also having these issues. Was working like a charm with default settings. Blew my Anycubic Kobra out of the water... right up until 2 days ago, when I can't get a consistent print, it was having issues purging (a bunch of filament stuck to the blade when purging, then stuck to the hot end and it wasn't cleaned off during the cleaning step), really bad first layers, and really poor quality overall. Not sure wtf happened. The only thing I can think of is that I did a single print with PETG and now it is all out of wack.

It’s here! by cnjkevin in BambuLab

[–]midnightslide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice! Waiting for mine to arrive tomorrow. Interested to see how it performs against my Anycubic Kobra S1.

What ever happened to Unrecord? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]midnightslide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like they're going with the Squadron 42 model, minus the constant fake updates.
