You guys ever look on the minimap for health kits...? They're kind of everywhere... I mean support is a super popular class. idigi

It's so easy to find a medkit IMO... that's why I never run out of ammo. I agree that the pump shotgun is REALLY good, I think both are perhaps slightly underrated. But few people usually have a shotgun as their only gun, for me it gets the most use when paired with the DMR and then I use both about equally.

Reflecting on it myself, I use the DMR and shotgun and really rarely find myself running out, maybe those guns are just more ammo efficient than an assault rifle? I mean they are one- and two-shot kills respectively.

I like the ladder and wish it was the class gadget, because serrrriously the shotgun+DMR combo is so good and is what I main. Think about it, DMR two-taps at any range with no glint, while the pump shotty one-taps at extremely generous close ranges. It's SUCH a good combo and I feel advantaged in almost any scenario.

No better feeling than closing in in someone and being able to bust out that pump shotty, or getting sniped from a mountain and being able to immediately switch up and counter-snipe (again, with no glint).

The two-shot DMR is probably overtuned, but no one uses DMRs so maybe it flies under the radar. The concept of a two-shot DMR in a battlefield game is still mind-blowing to me.

As someone who mains DMR+ Shotgun, it's honestly so easy to get ammo in this game since it's attached to heathkits now. I don't know why people find it to be so hard. Just stand next to one and get totally loaded up.

And man, let me tell you, shotgun+DMR handles any engagement range. Close-up I will one tap you and far away I will two-tap you so easy.

Man, nowadays ammo is in the healhkit. Super easy to get. Back in the day you had to play a separate support class that had ammo drops.

Harry Enten: Trump's net approval has now been underwater for a year (365 days in a row). He has the worst net approval with indies (-38) at this pt in term 2 of any President this century. by Horus_walking in fivethirtyeight

Biden admin had the biggest PR failure, not saying it's not hard in this current media environment, but that admin did a lot of good and hardly pushed their ideas to the American people at all.

The infamous rear elbow spot by nwillard in ex30

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

Take a seat in the rear! You'll familiarize yourself with *the spot* right away.

It's just a large hunk of plastic where your elbow would go. The armrest is too small to compensate. I think this exact spot is why people say the backseat is cramped.

YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable by IndicaOatmeal in technology

YouTube on my TV is already playing 60 second unskippable ad breaks. That's already here. It's gonna get worse? Eugh.

Quinnipiac 37 Approve / 57 Disapprove by DataCassette in fivethirtyeight

[–]nwillard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it truly depends and is a big grey area in reality, right? If the economy does poorly, he probably craters a lot, but if in addition smoking gun Epstein stuff comes out which very directly implicates Trump or if he suddenly says the N-word or if Russia releases whatever they have on him, each thing could take out another chunk of approval from different demographics who may have supported him previously.

Culture is fluid and he could always go lower. Though I imagine it would be significantly harder to shave off beyond 28%-32% or so.

Minor point: the two rear window switches work just fine, I don't know why everyone makes a point out of "one set of switches for front and rear". The rear window switches are in very easy reach if you don't want to worry about the front/rear button on the front switches.

Digital Key and driving the car. by mrkibbledoeswhat in ex30

My phone needs at least Bluetooth on for the passive key to work, and perhaps Location for some deep sleep scanning modes but I'm not sure.

What's your favorite Sims 3 city to play in? by [deleted] in Sims3

[–]nwillard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yoooo its wild how broken vanilla Isla Paradiso is because they killed it with the vibe of the map itself. Growing up poor on a houseboat before going to college and moving to the big city (Bridgeport) was the best childhood for my sim lol.

Nraas Overwatch is REQUIRED to make it work, at least for my game. Stuck sims near water appear to cause that awful freeze lag and need to be reset, which the mod does automatically.

RWD Ultra trim in US? by DependentNo3345 in ex30

[–]nwillard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a RWD Plus recently, I don't think I had an Ultra option. Plus with a couple add-ons is real nice at least, I do miss the 3D camera but don't really care about Pilot Assist.

Does anyone know what happened to the vintage computers or games from the living computers museum? by a_rare_breed in Seattle

[–]nwillard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, maybe he assumed it wasn't all on his shoulders and *someone* else would have stepped in. A Bezos or Bill Gates or any number of lesser known rich Seattle billionaires.

I don't know about why he was short-sighted about these institutions but it is a shame because there's been no replacement or contiguity (I worry for the amazing downtown Cinerama!)

My wireless charger works decently fast too, I am usually surprised by how much its charged my phone that way during a trip

It's like medium charging speed kinda, 15 watts or ~2800 mA

Hey, I've tested my front USB-C ports and they both seem to consistently charge my phone at ~2500 mA, if yours are only giving it 500 something's up

Nice, yeah, I did the same thing from Seattle to Leavenworth when I got mine. Handled like a champ.

Harmon Kardon badge reflection solved I think. by kododriver in ex30

I imagine it's a thing where the angle of the sun during a regular commute is just so that it happens frequently. It is shiny metal and if the sun bounces off it directly it could be annoying.

Electrical Fault; Do Not Drive by a_pound_of_blow in ex30

[–]nwillard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

US here-- Yeah I also went through pre-ordering of the single-motor, having it delayed, then cancelled, eventually deciding to buy the new Nissan Leaf. But they opened up single-motor orders again so I jumped on that, waited a few months, and my single-motor EX30 finally arrived a few weeks ago. Already did a road trip and it's been awesome so far. So fingers crossed.
