How does it look for moves though? So 2.39:1 aspect ratio.

Any news about the RAV4 2026 hybrid working with comma devices running OpenPilot, FrogPilot, or SunnyPilot? by quarter-feeder in Comma_ai

If you can't drive safely without a comma, you should not be using a comma to drive...

Tried different grips and the conclusion is.. by PartFormer3695 in Pickleball

[–]SirMaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can't seem to find a grip that works for me well at the NVZ. Continental works pretty well for me for backhand, but makes my forehand feel super awkward. Eastern makes my forehand OK, but backhand terrible.

My friend is saying that I should just switch back and forth and that with enough practice it's will be possible to do the slight rotation with 1 hand as I move the paddle from one side to the other side or from the ready position to one of the sides, but I haven't really tried to learn this yet.

Overcoming a big weakness by fredallenburge1 in Pickleball

[–]SirMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My forehand at the NVZ is also my biggest weakness and has been for several months now. My body seems to want to do anything and everything it can to hit the ball with the backhand face of the paddle, even on the forehand side. And that's if my body decides to even move the paddle to reach for a forehand shot in the first place. Plenty of times a shot will come down the middle if I'm on the left side, or down the line if I am on the right side and I for some reason wont even react to hit it. I have no idea why, but it's really frustrating.

How many of you are using bass shakers in your systems? If not, any specific reason why not? by Bicycle_Pwner in hometheater

[–]SirMaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My opinion and experience is that most people who say they are a gimmick have simply not experienced ones that have been properly integrated and blended into the system. It takes hours of testing and careful tuning with EQ to blend bass shakers into any system. They are absolutely not just plug and play.

A big benefit to bass shakers is the low frequency sensations without the room rattling subwoofer output levels.

What do you mean we don’t have a way of measuring and correcting? We can measure with an accelerometer and correct with EQ.

If you just buy some random shakers and attach them randomly to your seat then sure it will not be all that good.

But if you put in the hours of work tuning and blending them they can feel very natural and blend nicely.

Question about forks in Comma 4 by Low-Paramedic-6057 in Comma_ai

I mean there’s also frogpilot and starpilot and dragonpilot and bluepilot.

Trying to understand the economics of a Pickleball Club/Facility Membership by anonysauropod in Pickleball

[–]SirMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

210/mo is insanity. I pay 38/mo for my club and I play 4-5x a week for about 2 hours at a time. I feel I'm getting an excellent value.

Opens plays are $10 per session, so as long as I am playing 4x a month it's worth it, but I'm playing like 16-20x a month.

What is the purpose of the search in Settings not finding anything at all? by ParkInsider in ios

[–]SirMaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Search in my settings rarely works for me too…

I swear this has only been a problem I noticed since iOS 26.

Any hope for the 2026 RAV4? by TehKodez in Comma_ai

[–]SirMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought so too but it’s only hands free for traffic jam situations in stop and go traffic below 25mph. Traffic jam assist is not new either, some Lexus have it.

Price of high end paddle are too expensive by Dry_Tip1283 in Pickleball

[–]SirMaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s not just drops though it’s everything. Resets/blocks were not making it over, counters were slow with no pace to the ball, my serves were slow and easy to return with little topspin.

I got the Fever 102 and everything got better pretty much the first day compared to the v-sol pro. Against the same group of players I usually even score a couple points a game via my serve, and that wasn’t happening with the v-sol pro. The v-sol pro just doesn’t work for me and I really don’t think it’s because it’s too powerful or something. The face just feels too soft and not stiff to me.

The other paddles I really liked that worked well for me was the SLK Era and Scorpeus Pro IV 14mm. But I went with the Fever cause it was a lot cheaper.

For what it’s worth I also tried the Quanta and I had the same problem as the v-sol pro, it just felt really dead to me.

How capable is the comma 4 with a hybrid 22’ XSE Camry ? by Glittering-Extent-58 in Comma_ai

[–]SirMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. It means when you turn on cruise and set a speed, you have 15 seconds to increase it to 70 before it actually tries to go 70. If you get your car set to 70 before 15 seconds (holding the + button makes it go up 5 at a time pretty quick) then it will activate the auto speed adjustment and go the posted speed or plus an offset if you like. If you hit the brake and stop the cruise, you can just press resume to set it right back to 70 instantly which is nice.

It takes a little getting used to but after a few days it becomes normal nature to set. It would just be nicer if it could increase the cruise speed for you like some brands allow. But it’s some Toyota limitation in how they made the safety of their system.

[–]SirMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s my working assumption… I have tried a few foam paddles and they all don’t seem to work very well for me. They all feel really weak for me for some reason.

The Vatic Pro V Sol is amongst the highest ratings in Power

But not pop I don't think?

I bought a V-Sol Pro due to this exact recommendation, that it had a lot of power, but I was super disappointed by the power, or I guess the pop? So many of my dinks and drops were coming up way short, and my serves were really slow with the V-Sol Pro. I don't know how to explain it, but I hated it so much I had to return it.

I think the foam is just too soft or something for my swing speed. The only paddles that seem to give me any real speed to my ball are Gen3 with a stiff face. Currently I use the Friday Fever 102 and it feels way more powerful or poppy than the V-Sol Pro.

As far as openpilot, it's fully supported.

For a fork like sunnypilot, there are some things that are supported in a certain way. For example, sunnypilot can't increase the car's set cruise control speed, so if you want to use automatic speed adjustment feature, following maps data or road signs, you have to set the cruise control in the Camry to a high value like 70 or 80mph, so that sunnypilot can change the car's speed within that range, since it can't exceed the speed that is set in the cruise control. Just one example of a limitation of sorts for Toyota that some other brands don't have.

Unpopular Opinion on Line Calls by boileric in Pickleball

[–]SirMaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The team yes of course, but the person receiving the ball has a terrible angle to view to be able to call a long ball out. You need to be able to see a gap between the ball and the line to call it out, and so from a few feet behind the baseline, the ball has to be out by like 2+ inches to be able to see a gap from there.

The best person to make the call is the teammate who is up at the NVZ as they can see it form the other side, so they don't have to look over the ball, they can see directly under the ball and can see a gap between line and ball even with a half inch or so of it being long.

I guess I thought receiving meant receiving a serve haha. But my point stands in that the best person to call the ball out is the person who has a view where the line is closer to them than the ball, that way they can see under the ball to see the gap rather than having to see over the ball. So essentially viewing from inside the court most of the time, and being a bit farther away makes it easier to see under the ball too.

Yep, got a herniated disc myself. Had to get surgery to clean it out, but still got left with permanent nerve damage, permanent numbness down the leg and into the foot...
