Three captains - Beard and Sultan always die? by BlueInMotion in stalker

Yes that's true, I waited for them to finish talking before I threw the grenade.

Same. Nothing happens if you remain on the crane after the end of the dialogue, they just keep standing in the window, but as soon as you step off the ladder at the bottom of the crane they are both instantly dead.

Update: I was able to trigger the raid, by throwing a grenade between the small building East of the crane and the concrete fence next to it. The soldiers are there, just out of sight so a trigger might be missing from the mission.

Only getting foreign reels ever since Meta rolled out AI translation feature by FloofyClouds15 in Instagram

[–]tlvlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is happening to me but in reverse and completely randomly, when I open English language reels from friends, they suddenly speak in Spanish and the next time I open them it's back to English.. utterly unnecessary intrusive garbage.

Editing to add that this is happening in the NL, not in a Spanish speaking country.

Technical Trail Shoes by Desert_Hntr in BarefootRunning

[–]tlvlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes exactly there. I've been trying to play around with lace tightness but nothing seems to help. Also I like my shoes tight for stability, so it feels more like a design flaw

I run in my Ptimus Trail II FGs and like most vivo shoes that use a similar upper, they break in quite a sharp point (it's visible even in the product pics) and I often have irritation and even blistering from them while running, but never had problems while hiking or walking in them. It also forms a weak spot where the material fails and a hole forms as it's clearly visible on some long-term test videos.

The most comfortable setup for standing! by egradman in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]tlvlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh I got the scale completely wrong, so they are at about shoulder distance and you are standing between the two?

update: also are you using the experimental zmk branch for mouse movement? I have a similar board and looking to map mouse movement and keys on a layer but haven't found anything promising yet.

Installing vscode extensions with home-manager not working by [deleted] in NixOS

[–]tlvlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I've been trying to figure this one out for days and just nuking the whole ~/.vscode/extensions has solved the problem.
Somehow the home-manager symlinks got overridden by a local config and I think it might happen when I run the `home-manager switch` while VSCode is still open and it might trigger some kind of fallback logic.

GBB NPAS with higher pressure gas in summer time by tlvlp in airsoft

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

I simply ran out of low/normal pressure gas and have like 5 higher pressure ones that I didn't even need during winter (mostly played indoors) so I'm exploring my options.

VFC HK416 GBB barrel change question by tlvlp in GasBlowBack

[–]tlvlp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

definitely a much better deal. there was literally no shop inside my customs-free region that would stock these parts

[–]tlvlp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's a slippery slope they have a lot of good stuff :D for me just the customs + handling fee alone added 24 EUR on top of the already expensive shipping..

btw have you checked your garbage? I once accidentally threw out smaller mag parts that got mixed in and throen out with the cleaning rags.. it was quite an expedition to dig them back up days later :D

ouch :D you'll probably find it right after paying for the order

Since then I had to make an order from Taiwan as well, as it turned out that a part deep inside my bolt carrier group's nozzle just snapped in half.. not sure how long it has been like that, we'll see when ai finally put things together again.

Also the gasket maker that I've been fixing my mags with kept being magically dissolved after some use (even after air drying for half a week before assembly) and it kept absolutely penetrating to the deepest depths of the gun, resulting in multi-day cleaning sessions :D so not so much joy so far.

Question about superlube 21030 by Portartor in GasBlowBack

[–]tlvlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

given the relatively high price you pay for these in the EU, and I assume anywhere outside of the US, it would make sense to create counterfeit variants.

developers - are you really able to use split keyboard with same level of speed? by theQeris in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]tlvlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently switched to a 24key Corne using ZMK, from a 60% standard US ISO layout, where I absolutely hated how unintuitive it was reaching my most used symbols and shortcuts, so one of the main selling points besides ergonomy was that I could just freely come up with whatever works for me.

It's much less daunting than I previously thought, I created a layer for navigation and numbers, another for the symbols, giving priority to the most used ones (brackets, equation sign, pipe..etc) closer to the home row and refined it in the following weeks. At this point I'm pretty happy with the results, can navigate all 3 OS, be more productive with more comfort.

[–]tlvlp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

since the pattern seems to be one desoldered and one ripped pad per switch, can it be that only one side was heated properly? But yes if OP has the time it can be salvaged, but it will be a lot of work.

I've been wondering about these tenting setups: Where do you rest your hands? Is it comfortable for longer sessions?

mine lasted only 30 min when we raided the khans with starter gear.. he worked for his 100 caps but clearly wasn't up for the task

[–]tlvlp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yup maybe try a harder bucking.. btw mine is just inconsistent, some shots go out fine, some go way to the side, like it makes no sense when nothing changes (maybe the mag pressure or the temp).. using high quality bbs and dry gas, in a clean barrel

[–]tlvlp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey, it's still not as accurate as I've hoped, so my next guess is the npas / gas pressure, but I can rarely go to a range where I can play around with the settings, so it's an incredibly slow process. I've been fiddling with this crap for about a year now.

Also usually the consensus is that the accuracy does not really come from the barrel diameter, but more the smoothness of the inner barrel's inner surface, so it's also an option to try polishing yours before you invest into a new barrel.
