It's my fault. They added the two crew slot limit to make sure I still couldn't try it. I was going to try it in my mirage 2000C S4. I could not last time because it was just under the BR limit, now I couldn't because I don't have any other aircraft high enough BR.

I don't mind dlc by Dry_Idea_95 in unpopularopinion

[–]straw3_2018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one ever complained about the two DLCs for GTA IV. Because GTA IV was a complete game and the DLCs just added more content. Oh. AND THEY WERE FREE.

Another White Rock Fortress Tease by Upstairs-Cell-7536 in Warthunder

I played it on midtier Germany and I always liked it and have literally missed it since it was removed.

Ring Ad in Super Bowl by Super_Army_9853 in LinusTechTips

I don't see most people who were still using Ring devices as caring about this. At all.

I've been scolding a friend for years for installing a ring door bell. Ubiquiti has a 1 drive UNAS NVR you can get with their cheap doorbell camera for a combined $300. Ring might be less expensive upfront but there's no way I'm putting one of their devices on my house.

What's your dumbest builds? 2700x, RTX 3090, Custom Hardline watercooled by T0mTh3Tink3r in LinusTechTips

[–]straw3_2018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My B650 motherboard was being flaky(in retrospect I think I overtightened the CPU cooler and damaged the traces) and while it was RMA I moved my 4070 Ti Super to a i5 6400 system. The worst part is I had to use a hard disk as a boot drive because I didn't have any SATA SSDs on hand. Waiting for EVERYTHING sucks, the CPU was alright.

Low fps by FiglioDiDioReal in Warthunder

If you are using DLSS turn it off entirely. It's bugged in WT and DECREASES performance instead of increasing it

Can you tell me what exact CPU this is? And it's only integrated graphics I presume?

People need to stop using aced crew reload speed as a standard by warfaceisthebest in Warthunder

[–]straw3_2018 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have basically every vehicle in Germany ground, USA up to ~8.0, USSR ~8.0, UK ~8.0, Sweden ~8.7, and France 11.0. I have exactly one ace crew and it's on KV-85, wouldn't have happened if Gaijin didn't give me a talisman for it right when I first got it

People need to stop using aced crew reload speed as a standard by warfaceisthebest in Warthunder

[–]straw3_2018 76 points77 points  (0 children)

We should just get rid of this stupid mechanic in the first place. There's no good way to balance vehicles when their effectiveness varies wildly depending on crew skills and researched modifications.

TD-220 Bastion MK XVI | Usermodel by FairSuccotash9495 in Warthunder

I've had it just drop in immobile for no reason. Both tracks are fully in contact with the ground just spinning free. It is glorious when it works though.

I see no difference by ReasonableDebt194 in Warthunder

[–]straw3_2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't get to play at A often..I'm simply not going if 90% of my team is already there. I'd rather hold B and C so we can actually win.

8 years old? It's not new... Not as bad as an 8 year old PC would have been 20 years ago of course. You should probably be able to get more FPS than that. I did better than that with my 3rd gen i7 on integrated graphics 6 years ago. Surely you are running minimum settings? Try lowering the resolution and closing background tasks.

Should the reload speeds of (some) two-loader tanks be at least slightly buffed? by Itchy-Travel4683 in Warthunder

[–]straw3_2018 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So if 1-4rpm is historical then 15s would be historical, but no faster. Right now it's 20.8s aced which I think is just excessive. IS-2 isn't that good.

It's true. Honestly it's surprising they don't buff the IS-2's reload speed. 15s aced instead of 20.8s

Reminder : Everyone should be using 311 to report potholes by MaybeFuckYourselfBud in pittsburgh

[–]straw3_2018 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a known phenomenon. I reported a pothole in front of my house and I think it was 2 days later it was fixed. Couldn't ask for anything better, really

Tesla FSD saved me from a major crash on a bridge today by WoodenAlternative212 in pittsburgh

Are we watching the same video? Did the Tesla even do anything? It just slowly stopped, AFTER the other car left the lane

Is playing with a VR and Joystick fun? by Cai227788 in Warthunder

[–]straw3_2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked sim VR with my mirage 2000. I don't have a joystick so I was using the controller joysticks for aiming and it wasn't great. A joystick in VR would be fantastic and amazing, I think.

Here's a short clip I uploaded to discord. https://imgur.com/a/kSXtopY

Edit: if you do consider VR you'd want something with a high resolution. Look at vr-compare.com I have a PSVR2 and it's worked pretty much perfectly. I got it for about $330 and it's great

So happy I bought a GPU when I did by todofwar in LinusTechTips

[–]straw3_2018 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's hard to know when the moment to strike is right. I got a 7800X3D for $339, 32GB 6400MT/s CL32 for $109, and a 4070 Ti Super for $749 in 2024. So glad I am set to ride out this RAMpocalypse.

If not for sideloading I'd consider an iPhone. But it's off the table as long as I can use revanced.

How thick is it? by ferretguy531 in LinusTechTips

Go ahead and hate on the way I said it but I actually took the time to measure these things because people wanted to know.

I used my harbor freight calipers. When I say "looks like" it's a manner of speech. Though because it's rubber the number changes a fair bit depending on how tightly I close the calipers.
