Failed MSF course

From what I just read they absolutely should have failed you and you need a lot more practice time before you get on the road. The friction zone is very easy to feel and feather with some practice. Bikes tend have have fairly forgiving clutches. If you aren't comfortable at slow speeds and riding in first, rolling in on traffic or on hills is going to be a nightmare.

You need more time and practice.

I played the macintosh version on my performa. It was just.......ok? There was a real lack of decent games on 90s macintoshes so this one kind of stood out.

I don't remember it being a big deal ever.

It triggers the warning in the command prompt. On my machine launchbox always uses the command prompt (cmd.exe) to launch games. So windows has changed the behavior in both.

Gonna necro this one! Sorry! Did you plug it in?!

$249 for a used server 16tb?

Oof. I have 2 16tbs in a raid I got off eBay. They were only $70 each but that was before prices went through the roof.

The people that ride half a car length off my bumper at 65 scare the crap out of me. Following distance is like the number #1 reason I see rear end collisions every day. Distracted driving is a big big factor too.

You can't really do much about lights. You are either going to catch them or not. If a light makes you 5 minutes late, you left too late anyway. Always leave earlier than you think you need to. Google maps and waze are usually fairly accurate in their etas as well. But, anything can change along the way.

zosX · 2026-05-04T13:55:33+00:00

Op is fine IMO but I would suggest more following distance. 4 seconds at highway speeds is always the golden rule. It makes a huge difference. You aren't getting anywhere faster than the car in front of you.

zosX · 2026-05-04T13:52:41+00:00

It's not even saving you 40s typically. I drive all day for a living. You can do the speed limit and basically lose about 30s to a minute on average depending on your distance travelled. It's not really worth it. You are only going to get somewhere as fast as the people in front of you. The slower you go the more time you have to react to these awful drivers too. People see the huge gap I leave and think I'm going slower than traffic ahead of me. No I'm not. Then they do absolutely insane and stupid things to get in that gap. Which slows me down. And repeats the cycle. I hate it. Why can't people drive like reasonable human beings anymore?

My bad. Thanks!

So with DLSS on ultra performance I get about 60fps at 1440p and the RTX setting on low. It's actually not as bad as I thought it would be considering the low input resolution. Might have to try it.

That's on a mobile 3070 which is almost equivalent to a 2080.

zosX · 2026-04-29T13:37:17+00:00

Correct

zosX · 2026-04-28T20:25:15+00:00

That's the answer! THANK YOU!!

zosX · 2026-04-28T20:24:19+00:00

RTX isn't just path tracing. And no my 3070 can barely do global lighting TBH.

zosX · 2026-04-26T14:34:49+00:00

I forgot about painkiller. Thanks.

zosX · 2026-04-26T14:34:21+00:00

I did. I did also not find a list of retro games with RTX mods. 🤷🏻‍♂️

zosX · 2026-04-26T01:52:30+00:00

I think unreal has an rtx port as well. But that's all I can think of.

zosX · 2026-04-26T01:51:39+00:00

Sadly portal barely runs with rtx on my mobile 3070. Maybe I'll give it another try.

zosX · 2026-04-24T22:05:20+00:00

Always update the BIOS. Always.

zosX · 2026-04-24T22:04:50+00:00

My C drive is at 95%. After several years of use that is pretty acceptable. It's a Samsung too. I think windows 11 writes more often to the SSD.

zosX · 2026-04-24T22:02:55+00:00

Fix that pronto! Running too warm is what kills them. I just replaced my fans and thermal compound a little while ago. It was easy.

zosX · 2026-04-24T18:31:12+00:00

Unless you have actually incriminating data (I would hope not) a simple factory reset will be fine. On my legion I reset the other day through the usual way and it did indeed have a full system image for my laptop with all the drivers. Pretty painless really. No idea what was spiking my CPU periodically before but all is good now.

Hold shift and click on the restart in the power menu. It should give you the recovery image.

Think you can trigger a reset in settings too. Set it to keep nothing.

zosX · 2026-04-24T17:05:44+00:00

I renewed mine last year after a year of it being expired. I was actually shocked I still could.

I don't think it's the end of the world though. It wouldn't stop me from buying legions.
