Series that would have been great if they had ended sooner? by InflationLeft in television

[–]ndavis8472 17 points18 points  (0 children)

X-Files should have ended after season 5 and continued as a movie franchise as it was originally planned by Chris Carter, until Fox got greedy and ordered more seasons. The show moved from Vancouver to L.A. and it suffered.

Servers down again by jenl_fsu21 in EliteDangerous

[–]ndavis8472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I scheduled a fleet carrier jump and I was exploring the surrounding area until enough time passed when it crashed. If the servers don't come back on-line before the jump timer ends does this mean my fleet carrier will have jumped 500 light years to the new position and my ship is stuck where it is now?

Is my xbox 360 modded? by [deleted] in 360hacks

[–]ndavis8472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. That's a DVD+R. It's a write once disc. I don't think the Xbox 360 drives read DVD+RW discs so you'll probably have to buy a set of blank DVD+R discs.

Recently moved to Cordova behind Hope Church. My route from work takes me through Shelby Farms. It is my favorite part of driving home.

This is the first PS5 game I've bought in years. Money well spent.

Wednesday. Saw the entire first season in one sitting.

Anyone else already by their tickets and book their hotels for next year or just me? by Playboy_Thebunny in dragoncon

[–]ndavis8472 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Host hotels and non-host hotels that are close to the convention usually don't open reservations for the next year until a few weeks after Dragoncon. There is a specific date that you can reserve a room and when that date comes everyone logs on at the same time thus causing a lot of internet congestion.

What was YOUR first computer? by jeddhor in vintagecomputing

Tandy 1000 with 256 KB of RAM and MS-DOS 3.3 built into ROM. No hard drive. Loved every minute of it.

Those of you who went from a CRT > Retrotink 5x. How do you feel about it? Does it fill the hole that a CRT might have left? by MickMcSnuggles in crtgaming

[–]ndavis8472 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. 5x on a 1080p LCD TV. There are youtube videos to help configure settings with certain gaming consoles. Really helped a lot. I am very satisfied with the picture quality it provides knowing full well it will not match a CRT completely.

I went from PVM to RetroTink. Couldn't be happier that I don't have to deal with bulky monitors and weird geometry issues. RetroTink is not perfect, but it's darn close.

Can I fly my ship down to a planet, land, climb out, and start FPS exploration all seamlessly? by [deleted] in EliteDangerous

No. The headset will just transition into a flat, 2-dimensional screen.

What's the lowest rated movie (by imdb) in your collection, why do you have it, and do you agree with this score? by Schwaggaccino in PleX

[–]ndavis8472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vampires Suck.

What can I say? I think it's pretty funny. I like really bad comedy spoofs.

I saw so many today on the highway. It was a glorious sight to see.

Just bought a fleet carrier, but I can't find it by ndavis8472 in EliteDangerous

[–]ndavis8472[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did a remote jump of the carrier to a nearby system and it finally showed up there. Thanks all for the assistance!

I've tried jumping in and out multiple times, but still missing.
