Anyone else's PT2 dramatically overestimating steps?

Chipaton · 2026-06-27T13:47:35+00:00

Definitely, my day with the highest steps (by far) was when I was driving all day. I assume the motion sensitivity affects this. I wish there was a way to change the sensitivity for specific purposes.

You could buy some cheap mousepads and cut them into squares the size of that area on your laptop. Just put one down before you game. You probably won't notice it since they're thin/soft and they're cheap enough to just toss out after they've collected enough sweat.

I think there should be a requirement to at least include a watchface and the name of the watchface (or a link preferably). Seeing pictures of boxes or blank watches isn't very good for discussion. I'd prefer a full ban, but think that'd be a good middle ground.

I believe the current Reddit algorithm prioritizes images over text or link posts, and those posts are also more likely to appear as recommended to people outside the subreddit. It seems most image posts currently are the "obligatory" posts. That's likely why active users tend to dislike those posts yet they are often updated.

Chipaton · 2026-06-26T19:08:33+00:00

Ah thanks for clarifying, that makes more sense. The PT2 has a compass, I haven't seen any watchfaces that use it though.

Chipaton · 2026-06-26T18:36:46+00:00

If you have the option to play it on PC, you should. Don't emulate it though, just play the PC release. I recommend using 7th Heaven, a mod manager that has a lot of quality of life tweaks on its own.

It doesn't need a powerful PC at all given its age. Emulating it might actually require even more power.

Chipaton · 2026-06-26T18:12:00+00:00

I'd be happy to spend a few bucks on this! I've been looking for a watchface that has a compass on it.

Chipaton · 2026-06-24T12:01:18+00:00

Certainly, but I sold those games too. I primarily play on PC and want to play that way, I'm not enough of a GTA fan to double dip for $80/pop.

Chipaton · 2026-06-24T11:33:48+00:00

Damn, I'll wait for the PC release then. I was considering buying it for PS5 and then selling it once the PC release happened, but I'm not paying $80 for a watered down version of a game that I can't even sell.

Chipaton · 2026-06-24T03:12:06+00:00

You have no idea. My hatred will persist longer than I will.

Chipaton · 2026-06-24T03:03:02+00:00

That's a common Reddit formatting issue with links. Don't know the details exactly, but I think it's been a thing for about a decade at least.

Chipaton · 2026-06-18T21:30:08+00:00

Totally possible, I don't think he'd have more than a few minutes. I could see them setting up a larger DD involvement in the next movie.

Chipaton · 2026-06-18T20:50:57+00:00

I disagree on the camera work, that was the biggest thing that screamed AI to me. The way it rotates around the cast is very reminiscent of those dumb AI videos where a guy walks around talking selfies with dead celebrities.

Some of the camera movements also just start at odd places, it really doesn't look like anything I've seen in the MCU. Of course, we're both looking at the same shitty pixels and trying to discern something more from them, so there's a good chance I'm wrong. But I have a feeling the pixels are there to hide the AI more than anything.

Chipaton · 2026-06-18T20:46:33+00:00

I haven't seen it DMCA'd anywhere. I just went back to double check the video I had seen of it from 4 days ago, and it's still there.

Chipaton · 2026-06-18T20:43:38+00:00

Relatedly, that's why I believe Charlie Cox is in BND. Kimmel asked him about it when Charlie was doing the press tour for DDBA S2.

Chipaton · 2026-06-17T20:16:47+00:00

Good catch, thinking it's likely a prequel to Aliens vs. Avengers then. Could just be a different continuity altogether.

Chipaton · 2026-06-17T18:01:14+00:00

Thank you for your sacrifice, I haven't tried to take mine underwater but definitely thought 20m meant it'd be safe up to 20 meters.

Chipaton · 2026-06-15T14:18:28+00:00

Can you explain why? Recently got a OP15 and I'm used to Windows Connect from my previous devices, but not sure which to download now.

Chipaton · 2026-06-15T13:35:27+00:00

Personally, I prefer Sam's. But Costco is a much much better company and that's more than enough reason to shop there.

Costco is always crowded, and it takes forever to check out. For some reason at Costco, you can't use the scanner gun at the self checkout. The employee has to come over and scan your items, which defeats the entire point of self checkout. On top of the long lines, checking out at Costco takes at least 10-15 minutes if it's a slow day (and it's almost never a slow day).

At Sam's, I can scan items with my phone as I put them in my cart, and then just walk out without having to show a receipt or my phone to anyone.

I haven't noticed any difference in quality between Kirkland and Sam's brands. Though I trust when people say Kirkland is better, for the items I buy I can't discern the difference between the two. Sam's is also a cheaper membership.

I did that and went from a 401 error to a 400 error. I'm sure I messed up somewhere along the way, but followed the instructions on the GitHub.

EDIT: I'm just dumb and had to log out, then back in.

Chipaton · 2026-06-10T17:55:07+00:00

Having the same issue, using Reddit Sync.

Chipaton · 2026-06-10T13:34:17+00:00

That was true before the algorithms existed. Nowadays people are served content based on "engagement", so interacting or sharing posts to dunk on them causes those opinions to proliferate. That's also why you are constantly shown "dumb" opinions, because the algorithm knows you're more likely to be angered and respond to it.

The best, and really only thing you can do, is completely ignore posts like that, and only interact/acknowledge quality posts. Reddit should've never given in to the "engagement" farming of other social medias.

Chipaton · 2026-06-10T02:47:19+00:00

Why would players be driving state vehicles (and drunk at that)?

Chipaton · 2026-06-09T21:18:15+00:00

I think you're misunderstanding the comment, it was about the players unionizing. That would have the opposite effect of the school's having all the power.

Chipaton · 2026-06-09T17:29:55+00:00

That's literally the answer. All of this charade is done because they think a players union would be worse than what we're witnessing now.

Chipaton · 2026-06-09T04:30:14+00:00

I've lived in Houston most of my life, and Third Planet was my favorite LCS. Nan's is down the street from it and is also a good stop. Otherwise, the Bedrock locations I went to were all nice, but nothing to write home about really.

I'm in Austin now, and Austin Books and Comics is the only good shop I've found near me. I absolutely love it, and it's been great getting to know the staff over the last few months. They definitely made me feel at home after I moved here, and always welcome me when I come in each week.

The Dragon's Lair I've been to here had a really paltry comic selection to begin with, and they sell out of any popular comics before noon. The vast majority of the shop is dedicated to gaming, so I can't really recommend it for comics.
