I wonder how fuel prices down .50 cents will bring down price of 1lb ground beef now at almost $7. 12 pack of pop/soda $10. 100% markups. Not to mention everything is high priced now

Splain this connection to me. Or is it simply deflection from food prices? How does this save an imploding economy?

When you say "sortie" do you mean one real sortie or one AH3 sortie with unlimited rearms?

Back in the day I would take a single mossie with a 4k bomb and 2 500lbers. I would bomb a city, rearm, and bomb another city for a couple hours and rack up some ridiculous damage totals. I'm not sure if this is the "sortie" you're talking about or if you mean a single run with drones.

I remember a specific one where I got intercepted by 2 262s that appeared to not like me bringing milk to the babies. I climbed as high as I could and they were having problems getting up to me. I headed for a base near our strats (with 163s available) The 262s ended up chasing me for something like 6 sectors during which my fuel state became critical. I even shut down one engine in route. I don't remember the specifics but I know I was very close to the base but out of fuel when they got me. As soon as I died I grabbed a 163 and took off. One of the 262s was no longer there. I'm not sure if he was out of fuel or just didn't want to fly the 6 sectors back to base. I chased the other one down with my 163 and killed him in a brief fight. Was a bunch of fun.

I meant by rearming in a single bomber as well. :airplane:

Hardware and Software / VKB joystick nxt

Can you use this joystick without using the VKB config software?

Windows pops up a Defender alert when I try to run config software.

Landed 50k damage and 4 kills in a TU2 fighter plane.   

2 buffs were easy but both of the two fighters forced me to work hard.

I've written a lot of instructions/documents. I've learned to include do this, "not this", here and there.

I don't do much end user support anymore. The extent of that is O365 permissions. Every time I grant someone access to a shared mailbox or another's mailbox I always tell them "it will appear below your own mailbox, not inbox".

I had a customer complaining about random reboots every day.

Went through the usual suspects and found nothing.   

I was on the phone with her and she suddenly said "oh.....never mind"   and said the tip of her shoe was hitting the reset button.

Reminds me of the woman who called 911 and said her battery was dead and she was locked in her car. She was beside herself with stress. The 911 operator told her to turn and look to her left, pull the button up to unlock the door.

Just curious. What’s the most damage you’ve gotten or seen someone land in one sortie in a bomber? :headscratch: :)
