2nd recommendation is to just bury this situation where it is right now. Clean slate, fresh start, calm feelings, and go back to having good clean fun. Rivalries and competitiveness encouraged… complete disregard to event rules, blatant antagonizing, name calling, flaming on boards, etc., not allowed.

I can do this a lot easier than any of you could. Mind your HOs and watch your rams, that simple.

So I guess a ho is a ho only when the absolute center of my prop perfectly aligns with the absolute center of the prop on the plane the guy I’m ho-ing’s prop?
And it follows they have to be on an exact opposite course, to minuscule fractions on an inch.

With that tight a definition it seems that to me a true ho is practically impossible.

You are very correct.... so in receiving "front quarters" that I personally deem HO-ish in the 2-10range, call them out, continue getting them and start giving them back.  And egos have been making that 2-10 window much narrower. 

Why should I continually eat collisions as butthurt players fly or turn directly into me?  Sure, I could move aside, but after so many, I simply no longer move - so I should eat a collision that favors players with higher latency? I was for a while, then got tired of it.

Ironically, or actually more on point, I have a film from Feb '23 where jaeger tells people 2-10 and puma44 straight up HOs me directly after.  He was one of the bigger offenders in this, and he hasn't been around for a while, altho' he's over here licking the window. 

I give what I get.

Does anyone know how Aces High looks on a monitor like this? Specifically, does the game fill the entire screen?

You can't run the game and the film viewer at the same time. It would require multiple machines and an easy way to transfer the film file. Expensive and probably not very time efficient.

I'm gonna delete my post and the next one. Don't wan to give anyone ideas.

Guess I misunderstood. I thought it was a complaint about watching a video to see where a tank was hiding. Certainly doable. My apologies.

I see, apparently you can record a film and see where everyone is through playback. You could do that easily enough with a 2nd machine but what's the point?

This year many businesses will have to retire machines not officially compatible with Win 11. Or pay for the continued support. A lot of new machines will be bought. ARM may see big gains. Sony lost with Betamax. They made a comeback with Blu-Ray. RISC may yet beat out CISC.

What about VLIW?
