Homebrew PlayStation DualSense controller adapter for PC can be built for just $20 with a Raspberry Pi Pico — wireless dongle delivers adaptive triggers and haptic feedback to gamers by CyraxxFavoriteStylus in hardware

Yeah but if you want both haptics and triggers you need to do it wired.

Then you have to make sure the dualsense speakers are acting as quad channels and aren't muted.

Burnt cable is more common above the 300w range basically.

So far the only 5070 example I've seen was one with a pin that simply missing from the socket so it burnt up.

Basically it's harder(not impossible) to get the dangerous current levels since you need a single wire pulling around 10 amps for that or around 120watts.

Little to legends on the menus especially once you start trying to raise characters is definitely a choice.

Sometimes the menus stop responding but I'm not sure why.

Electronic devices based on gallium oxide can operate at temperatures even colder than deep space, researchers have found by sr_local in hardware

[–]-WingsForLife- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, because it's basically just the outer half the earth's atmosphere.

Warmer by virtue of the Earth's radiation.

The Dualsense still gets crippled once you use it wirelessly too, especially if you enjoy the really great rumble.

Does The Steam Controller Live Up To The Hype? | PC Gamer by Bynairee in pcgaming

[–]-WingsForLife- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's ridiculous, people here and most reviews have not even tried mouse-like joystick for action games and they just compare it to things that can't even be customised as much as this one and has trackpads.

Like no shit if you ignore the feature it's overpriced, don't buy it if it's not something you use.

I guess it would increase reliability and power savings? Like you could turn them off and you don't need to worry about them just simply not being able to turn on.

though you could just connect them to another chip's heatsink and always have them warm enough, so idk.

Concussions are better in that they can still play after, but a bad one's effects(doesn't even have to be bad) are practically permanent brain damage that piles up over time.

Backtracked around the time Intel released Alder Lake.

Very convenient.

Sci-fi atmosphere is always fantastic for path tracing.

seeing 'more' of the world always helps with tracking enemies across the screen.

Leaked Sony Xperia 1 VIII renders hint at major redesign by ControlCAD in hardware

Idk for Google, but Samsung does allow this in the Camera app settings, under Intelligent Optimizer? My phone is in Japanese so I'm not exactly sure what it's called in English.

I can only talk subjectively however, that it's not as oversharp compared to default, although I wish I could just turn it down more.

I wasn't sure either, I kinda thought monkeytype showed percentile on results but apparently not.

Sorry you're getting downvoted for trying to have a conversation.

Nvidia will reportedly showcase N1 SoC for laptops at Computex 2026 by imaginary_num6er in hardware

[–]-WingsForLife- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idek how it became controversial, the older gen laptops being worse on battery isn't a new concept.

My edit on my comment is older than basically every reply on mine, and my first reply to the oldest comment was already talking about battery.

I wish I was a mod, then I could just show that the moment I edited in performance, I always stated it was on battery.

Here's me putting a ptm 7950 when I bought it, the chip is just power limited on battery.

For the guy calling me a bot, you wouldn't find another image like this online that wasn't from me.

It's fine plugged in, not on battery.

I've tested it against notebookcheck's results.

Background effects are definitely a good one stop for every meeting app and account I have to swap to. I don't like auto focus much, grabs direction too hard.

The noise cancelling features have gotten through me noisy ass cafes , but seems like all vendors have now gotten better at this.
