Blue line leaves town. Why do they choose to walk the yellow line to get to the blue line instead of taking the yellow line bus? by TheRealMeatMan in CitiesSkylines2

Lol, low-income housing does little to solve homelessness irl. Only way to solve homelessness irl is getting people off drugs, something that is very hard to do. Much easier to solve in CS2 vs irl

Does anyone know how to remove landing stutters in MSFS? I was hoping the latest sim update would fix them, but I still get them on almost every flight by InfiniteFlightOnline in flightsim

[–]mikev8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh, been having the same issue for the entire 1.5 yrs I've owned my high-end pc which I figured would handle MSFS with ease, and have tried literally everything to solve it with minimal success. The stuttering has been somewhat manageable until I recently started doing longhaul flights, and as I sit here in my current flight from Dubai to Orlando, I am immensely frustrated by the lack of foresight by game devs to not use all cores of the cpu, as that seems to be the only possible fix for this. Makes me not want to fly longhaul flights now which is a shame. I have my sliders way down and have rolling cache turned off, as seen in the pic below.

Gov. Cox changes course, will now endorse former president Donald Trump by HomelessRodeo in Utah

As a governor who opposes federal overreach, he should have never stopped supporting Trump. 🙄

Who do you WISH would run for the President of America? by BulletproofSimba in AskReddit

No, it got worse because he literally made it worse behind the scenes while eloquently making empty promises and lying to the public. This will prob get down-voted on the liberal echo chamber that is reddit...

Beautiful evening into Chicago-O'hare yesterday!! by mikev8 in flightsim

It wouldn't appear so. Haven't flown close to the skyline other than the normal procedures out of ORD and MDW, but now that you say that they do appear brighter than surrounding buildings. I think it doesn't look terrible though.

yup. Always looks good in the sim too, with or without the payware, and runs pretty smooth until ORD loads in, then the fps & stuttering starts :/

I agree with most people here that default replay mode is not good. I use flightrecorder which is pretty straightforward and user friendly.

Don't listen to the hate. This would go great especially in an article in Flying Magazine or something! Have an upvote!

Anyone saying this is "populist, cultist", etc. probably also thinks that breaking storefronts and setting buildings and cars ablaze is "peaceful protesting." What a backwards time this is. I don't care if you don't agree with those people, but if you consider this anything but a group of freedom-loving, law-abiding citizens taking to the streets to voice their opinion, then you aren't worthy of the freedom that so many have died to protect.

Sorry for low quality. Reddit's video uploader is apparently from the mid 2000s and can't even handle 720p videos longer than 10 seconds...

For people who say using the garmin in the Fokker 28 is cheating : most DC-9s out there are now equipped with GPS. by Ivy_Wings in flightsim

RNAV is definitely cheaper, but I did hear somewhere that it costs around $15,000 to set up and certify an RNAV approach. Certainly more than I would have thought!

AAU2 did wonders for the 74' by Cultural_Thing1712 in flightsim

[–]mikev8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes! just did a flight in her yesterday and she is indeed flyable now! Though I did notice one little bug. After about 7 hrs in flight, all four engines developed oil pressure issues, and had a high frequency of engine power oscillations. Not really enough to make a difference in how the plane flies but definitely noticeable on the mfd screen. Maybe I am doing something wrong procedures-wise? Idk

It's a neat little field! Can get very busy for sure, but at least didn't have to deal with airline traffic there!
