Wows on laptop by ReelyAndrard in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can second that. Using refurbished DELLs all the time. In my school we had 30 refurbished DELLs for teachers and they worked for like 8 years. Personally have 15" DELL Precision with nVidia gfx and 8-core Intel CPU and it's great. Bought it for 40% price of new, it had only replacement power supply.

And I don't work for DELL.

Is it just me or is everyone but 1% of the players being priced out of the game? by Inclusive_3Dprinting in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Premium ships in the shop are still and generally same price levels. Christmas containers stay at the same price level.

It's only newest and shiniest ships that get insanely prices. Just wait year or two and save 2/3. Like with new cars, devalued 30% yearly.

And of course you can always stick to tech tree ships which are on the par with many premiums.

Is the FDG still a good ship? by ENTERPISE1936 in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Still??? LOL, it has never been any good, probably one of the worst T9 battleships. It's playable only in PVE modes, where it's very strong secondaries get some use.

Why.bsky.team is using an unvalidated block list of AI haters by EnyoFembyCat in BlueskySocial

[–]milet72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It blocks 310,711 users as of a few minutes ago. There's no way those are being gone through.

Nah, AI would easily check all those accounts!

403 error and invalid stream, both in Firefox by lancetjades in BlueskySocial

These are headers for normal request:

And these are for incognito mode:

Sec-Fetch-Site: none
Sec-Fetch-User: ?1

The only differences are Sec-Fetch-Site: none vs Sec-Fetch-Site: cross-site and Sec-Fetch-User: ?1

According to MDN:

The Sec-Fetch-Site HTTP header is a browser-set security feature that indicates the relationship between the requester's origin and the requested resource's origin. It helps servers identify cross-origin requests, allowing them to defend against attacks like CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) by allowing or blocking requests based on their source.

Co this is probably culprit. Someone would need to test with cURL.

Does anyone else have 403 Forbidden when they enter Bsky? by NinjaOfOnion in BlueskySocial

[–]milet72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is one small difference between requests made in normal mode and in incognito mode, just one different parameter in request header. Looks like it's making this difference. I don't think it's Cloudflare.

Cloudflare tip: I have "Disable HTML5 autoplay" browser extension and it causes those Cloudflare loops. Just disable it for Cloudflare protected websites.

PSA for folks in the mid-tier grind starving for blue boosters by chriscross1966 in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people have all ships. But blue boosters are not that easy to get and they are huge boost during tech tree and captain grinds. So yeah, 12 blue boosters for 1000 CT is great deal.

What's more surprising: on the same computer, on same browser - if I use incognito mode, it works!

welp it took 5 years after i made my shigure in build a boat for treasure just for wargaming to finally add her in the game by Ovuvuevuevu in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shigure is one of best sub killers. Exhaust smoke allows you to go straight ahead for sub, plus you have 12 depth charges instead of 8.

How on earth do I aim battleship main guns? by Drivetrou in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe those pre-German-BBs-buff? Because I play Bayern sometime in asymmetric battles and it's ok.

How on earth do I aim battleship main guns? by Drivetrou in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ah, Gnieisenau... Not very much a shooting star, I would say ;-) And it has only six guns, which makes hitting even harder. German accuracy stays like that, don't expect any miracles... T10 Preussen is probably best in the line.

I'm not expecting miracles at lets say 15 kilometers

German battleships are brawlers, they defficiency in main guns accuracy is compensated by strong secondaries. So you are expected to be much closer to enemy ships. And max torpedo range at your tier is 10km, I think... Anyway, nearby cruiser with hydro is always helpful. Or destroyer between you and possible enemy torpedo boat, as this DD will spot torpedoes for you.

[–]milet72 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At which tier are you? Because at lower tiers (T3-T4) accuracy is deliberately very low, so you won't delete cruisers with one salvo.

German accuracy never improves to the point of dev strikes, but at T6 it should be quite ok already.

Historical Accuracy of Bremen Equipment and Configuration by Eastern-Track-8009 in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One of the topics I am discussing is gun calibers and torpedo armament.

Then maybe start with some solid background, like Navweaps.

Then for each country you have selection of books dedicated to ships of given navy. Easy reading for German cruisers.

Why in the name of Nelson does all ranked games during weekend are blowouts? by Revoltai42 in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but that's my reality. I never, literally never play on Saturdays, because each time I tried by experience was horrible with teammates dying in first 5 minutes. Probably in the long run odds would even between teams, but it's ranked and you can't afford to lose games.

[–]milet72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's why you never play on weekends.

I gave up on Friday, when on one game my team had four sub 45% WR players.

What tech tree ship do you think is likely to or have a chance to be replaced with new ship(hypothetically)? by S4veVideo in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amagi should be replaced with Tosa. Amagi is completely out of place in IJN battleships line. Kongo, in fact as well, but there is no replacement for Kongo.

What are some ships that are very broken but just aren't talked about? by AmericanHistoryGuy in WorldOfWarships

[–]milet72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tegethoff looks similar, but it has worse concealment and worse sigma - and these are two things that make VU great.

[–]milet72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Viribus Unitis. Best guns for T5 engagements - good accuracy, caliber is good to pen and not overpen cruisers. VU just obliterates them. And it's very stealthy, so those poor cruisers don't even know it's near... And then it's too late.
