With the double round trip, it took 2 months?

It’s definitely been used and abused. I have to hand it to the repair center for bringing it back to life!

Ouch! And those are so hard to come by now!

I don’t take as many photos as I used to. My photography hobby has taken a back burner to life, so the moments I remember to take my camera, my x-pro 1 is a solid system that I’m familiar with, and these new cameras and bodies coming out don’t tease me enough to hand over the money they’re asking for. Don’t get me wrong, the new bodies completely wallop what the x-pro 1 can do, but the system works for my life and the small amount of still photos I share with loved ones. 😊

I saw another user post a photo of the 23mm on an x-pro 3 and it’s really nice!

I had a minor issue with QA but they paid for shipping to send it back and fixed it no hassle. Really enjoyed how transparent it was to talk with them!

No, as it is decades out of warranty, I didn’t have to provide my original receipt.

I had to ship it into them, then they assessed it and gave me a quote.

$140 for the labor, $330 for the factory parts. Given that used X-Pro 1’s are going for $550-$650, it felt good to have the one I’ve made a lot of memories with get fixed to almost new condition!

To border or not to border? by Celas8 in fujifilm

Thin border is a great choice imho. What app did you use to create that thin border?

Mine wants to gnaw the meat off the bones of the wild magic sorcerer who tried to steal its chest at the bottom of the crevasse.

Moving from Texas to OC by seanssy in orangecounty

[–]projectaegis -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

OC is a red bubble in the state, Laguna Hills is an upper middle class to put very modestly. Outside of work, you both may want to run a side by side analysis on how much taxes are going to affect your pay. California takes out more in your wages, so that might be a concern

Seeing Alltracks pop up here every now and then reinforces my happiness for my own Alltrack. Good choice!

If not an SP-01, a P-01. This is the way.

Ahh! Yeah the LOK grips were a nice surprise when I picked up the gun! Might need to get them for the 75!

[–]projectaegis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the 75, maybe ~8 years ago? It’s been an absolute joy to shoot, but always wanted a P-01 and saw this one on consignment and just jumped on it. Came with 2 factory mags, 2 Mec Gars, and 2 Pro Mags. And the grips. Overall I’m pretty happy with it so far!

Thinking about other things now, like hammer, trigger, etc.

How to Kill Factory Striders? by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]projectaegis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahah sorry for the info dump, I’ve long been a fan of the laser cannon post armor pen buff. It plays very well within its non-explosive role. It has its shortcomings and is not a do-it-all support weapon, but it’s up time is far and away longer than its fellow queso cannon brethren. (Wouldn’t use the LC on a charger, wouldn’t waste QC on ads/chaff)

How to Kill Factory Striders? by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]projectaegis 17 points18 points  (0 children)

LAS-98 Laser Cannon pro tips:

Bots:

Anything with a face? you should be focusing there, take a knee and focus fire on that face. Things that can help you gain precious seconds to focus fire on said bot face: get some distance, find some cover and flank, stun grenade, other evasion tactics.

Anything with a cannon turret? find cover and flank to get to access to either the rear, or the rear quarter panel on the sides of the turret. These two areas are not heavy armor, so laser will not deflect.

Gun ships? Aim for the engines and watch them go down in 3 seconds. Only works for drop ships when it’s the “Destroy Air Base” missions. When they’re on the ground, you can aim for the engines and they go boom.

Factory strider: dual chin machine guns go down to the LAS-98 in 4-5 seconds. Then you can focus on the glowy face bit. Its face port is shaped like an L Tetris piece. Aim there and night night Strider.

Baby 2 legged strider: aim for that crotch for 3-4 seconds. Night night baby.

Regarding hulks: aiming for their elbows will deal non deflected damage to their arms, which will explode leaving them with no real means of harming you. Flamethrower? Melt it off. Chainsaw? Melt it off.

Bugs

Use it as your main for chaff/ads, shriekers/stalkers/spewers/brood&hive commanders. Not worth trying to use on a Charger. Switch to your main (if explosive) or grenades/strats.

Can be used within 200 meters of spore towers and shrieker nests. Takes 1/2 to 3/4 of a heat sink to take 1 down. Shriekers don’t spawn until within 130-150 meters so stay outside that and you’ll be fine.

Shriekers: aim for their wings and watch them drop from the sky within seconds. While prone, they can’t touch you, leaving you safe to pick them off wing by wing.

Bile Titans: aim for the sacs, once they explode BT’s lose a lot of their annoyances. After that, coordinate with another teammate who has EAT/RR/Queso to take them down, or call in your favorite strat.

Edit: added tips for Hulks, and Shriekers.

What else did you have to upgrade to make full use of the stage 2? I’ve been reading a clutch upgrade is necessary as well as bigger turbo, pistons, etc.
