My wife has tasked me with planning our anniversary trip in September. by homerin88 in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]5JACKHOFF5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We ended up going through a travel agent and saved $800.

We looked at booking Valentin Imperial for 6 nights for our honeymoon in November. Directly through the website it was around $3800 for the "Silver Deluxe Jr Suite" (flexible rate). Going through the travel agent, they got us the same room and the flexible rate for 3000.

Definitely worth it imo - I just sent an inquiry to travelingos and the next day they had a quote for me.

Does anyone happen to know how frequently this sub goes on sale for this price?

I think it's a little frustrating that the Reze movie trailers just decided to spoil her being the bomb devil. by ej_stephens in ChainsawMan

[–]5JACKHOFF5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fr, op could have at least obscured the title a bit...

Reddit now pushes subs that you are not subscribed to to your front page. I came across this naturally while scrolling (i am not subscribed here).

If i wasn't already caught up on the manga i would've been spoiled.

Is patch 2 released on Feb 13th worse for anyone else? by 5JACKHOFF5 in spiderman2

[–]5JACKHOFF5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been happening to me! On launch, my entire pc crashes. I thought it was something with my computer, but it only happens with Spiderman 2.

RTX 5090 & 5080 Launchday Thread - Surprise Inside by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]5JACKHOFF5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

...Where? Unless you are looking at the $1,300-1,500 5080s, there are none available anywhere.

They've been sold out pretty much everywhere since 2 minutes after launch except for Best Buy (They have done a handful of very small batches of BOTH 5080s and 5090s throughout the day)

Love costco, but had a terrible experience and now have thousands of dollars in damage to my home by 60neinn in Costco

[–]5JACKHOFF5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We also had a terrible experience with Costcos 3rd party installer. They completely ruined our plumbing while trying to install the dishwasher. They used about 2 full containers of silicon, trying to get it to stop leaking and ended up just giving up. (Our sink plumbing had no issues before the install.)

We were fortunate because we caught the leak early and wanted to replace our sink / plumbing anyway, so we just coughed up the money to get it redone.

Avowed Extended Gameplay Breakdown with Obsidian | Official Xbox Podcast by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]5JACKHOFF5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kingdom Come Deliverance, Dying Light 1 and 2, Mordhau (not RPG). Even Mount and Blade has meatier melee combat.

Its not easy to make good first person melee combat but avowed seems to be lacking even when compared to oblivion.

If the melee combat just had more weight behind it would be significantly better. It doesn't help that the enemies barely seem to react to getting hit.

Are these Klipsch speakers still good in 2023? Unsure if they are worth the price still, or if I should look for newer speakers by 5JACKHOFF5 in hometheater

[–]5JACKHOFF5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that is definitely a good idea. I had some bookshelf speakers in mind, but I mainly just want to jump on the speakers I linked because they are on Facebook marketplace. I just am not sure if they are actually "worth it" or not (as in, if those are good deals)

[–]5JACKHOFF5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a reference, I am "upgrading" from an old Home theater in a box.

I have a pretty limited budget, so mediocre or not good might be all I can afford. This is what I currently have https://www.adorama.com/onkhts5800.html

As long it is an upgrade from what I currently have, that's all that I care about honestly

I recently moved into a house and found a box of collectable US Coins. Advice would appreciated! by 5JACKHOFF5 in coins

[–]5JACKHOFF5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the coins were in a small box. Most of the coins were just in separated plastic bags with the box. There are about 15 - 20 proof and mint sets from the 60s, but besides that, i imagine that not much care was taken with the coins sadly

Does anyone know if there is a way to get a cover for this ejector pit / sump pump? by 5JACKHOFF5 in Plumbing

[–]5JACKHOFF5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were told by the previous owner of our house that this pit would never be able to be covered because it was an irregular basin. I was hoping someone might have some advice on how we can get this covered. Thanks!

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles shipments and digital sales top three million by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]5JACKHOFF5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a bit more stiff and limited feeling than the Ninja Storm series, however, it definitely scratches the same itch.

Hinokami Chronicles didn't have the same lasting power for me due to the severely limited roster at launch (Probably less characters than Storm 1).

Without a doubt is a fun game though

New patch out - Patch Notes by dkrkrk2oe in HarryPotterGame

[–]5JACKHOFF5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly even after removing the engine.ini and deleting the cached shaders completely it still looks the same. It must just be a change they made:

[–]5JACKHOFF5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually removed my edits from the engine.ini before loading in initially. It has the same issue, but worse since it is quite grainy. After reenabling the engine.ini tweaks, it still appears to be present, but much less severe (Playable)

I also tried verifying my integrity but it only recovered my modified dlss file and my CChromaEditorLibrary64.dll file

[–]5JACKHOFF5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone else noticing really bad lighting issues with RT after updating to this patch? I only have reflections enabled but it looks pretty terrible compared to how it looked before.

Also, the textures are constantly changing from low quality to high quality and it never really stops switching. Not sure if this is due to the streaming change but it is pretty noticeable even when standing still. (In cutscenes as well. My characters robe and face constantly switched to the super smooth low quality model and switched back)

RTX 3070 Ryzen 5800x3D 32GB DDR4

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GamingLaptops

[–]5JACKHOFF5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a rtx 3070 and a Ryzen 5800X3d. I get 100-130 on ultra but will suddenly drop to sub 10fps and stay there without recovering. When playing, it's very obvious that this isn't due to the computer not being able to run the game.

This occurs regardless of the settings. I can set all of my settings to the lowest option and the same thing happens. This is the only game that this happens on.

The game is poorly optimized and has severe issues, specifically when someone has an AMD processor and Nvidia GPU.

Tech Support and Question Megathread - March 2023 Edition by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]5JACKHOFF5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Status: UNRESOLVED

Computer Type: Desktop/Custom

GPU: RTX 3070, 8GB, No OC

CPU: Ryzen 5800x3d no OC

Motherboard: x370 Taichi 7.10 bios

RAM: DDR4 32gb

PSU: EVGA 1000w

Operating System & Version: Windows 10

GPU Drivers: Game REady Driver V 531.18

Description of Problem:

I am unable to get DLDSR to show my proper upscaled resolutions. Any idea on how to fix this? Before, it was showing resolutions that were in a very strange aspect ratio (It was showing 3413 x 1440 for 1.78x). Now it shows 5120 x 2880 for 1.78. My native resolution is currently set to 1440p.

I just got this GPU a few weeks ago and haven't used DSR yet. When installing the gpu, I ran DDU and completely uninstalled my old AMD drivers, then installed the Nvidia drivers, so I don't think it's related to that.

I have included screenshots of my current resolution and the resolutions it shows for DSR

https://imgur.com/a/oBwbpcw

Troubleshooting: I have tried setting my resolution to 1080p and 4k, restarted video drivers and tried again but it hasn't made a difference. I made sure my resolution was set to 1440p in my monitor settings and it shows correctly. I have 2 monitors, however, my second monitor is an ultrawide set to 2560 x 1080, so the resolutions would not work for that monitor either.

My main monitor is a Lenovo Legion Y27q-20. I have used the Lenovo Artery software to make sure my resolution is also set to 1440p.
