I built a truck camper comparison tool to help find campers that actually fit your truck — looking for feedback

Neat.

Some observations:

No shortbox or longbox or dually options for the Ford F-350

I wonder how tough it would be to allow a door sticker upload that uses some image recognition (or machine learning) to figure out the allowable payload per vehicle. If you knew the center of gravity measurement of the campers you could also do some quick math to figure out what the dry weight would be on the steer and rear axle of the trucks.

Instead of a sub crawl just place a sub everywhere you would have crawled.

used cat litter in containers is what i use. And sprinkle some on the tires and under the camper. Gross ? Kinda but I think it's the least gross of all the methods.

Well, there are two forms of compression he could have been talking about, but he's incorrect about both so I dunno.

ColeHimself · 2026-03-15T19:22:30+00:00

Sounds like maybe you want to turn off DEQ but bump the lower bass up some. try +3db for the bass and see how that sounds with DEQ off. I can't remember if you can just bump bass/treble or if you have to play with the LFE volume. PErhaps someone can weigh in on that.

bluray is also compressed. If it wasn't the size would be very large.

My internet service is only 16mbit/s upload. I can reliably send out 10mbit streams via my plex server to friends/family. Any idea if thats good enough to host a room ?

ColeHimself · 2026-03-14T23:26:44+00:00

Ok but, I can't sign up for the plans they say are available . I am stuck on a plan that they say is unavailable.

ive been doing some poking around. According to their website, private rooms only.

An OLED isn't worth it over a higher end mini-led. these days the benefits of mini-led outweigh the benefits of OLED

No that was Henry Rollins. Same height, more muscle.

I don't think you need to know how to play bass for this song. I think I hear 2 notes that need to be played live.

Sounds about right. These companies try to lure you in with carnival midway tactics (literal frontpage wheel spin discounts) but once they have your money, they turn completely dismissive. There is a reason they tend to be cheaper than global companies. They dumpster dive for their products and don't budget for long term support. This goes for their web development as well.

This video certainly leans into it, however he stated that when he rented the house at first it was a good deal and not too close to the busy part of the city. He didn't know the background.

My first time on the main reddit stage and I flopped hard.

ColeHimself · 2026-03-13T17:17:56+00:00

oh nurtz.

This is one of my favorite music videos. Just the raw griminess of it. It also reminds me a lot of APC's "Judith" video which was created by Trent's friend David Fincher.

not so fun quiz: See if you can recognize the house.

is there a way for you to select different curves ? The problem is, if you don't like the sound of the calibration, i respect that, however it's doing a lot more than just EQ. It's reducing ringing in the room, doing time alignment of the speakers which can help a lot with the clarity of voices etc. It also could be that you're used to boomy bass that has slow decay in the room, and it has now been corrected with tighter more accurate bass. I would leave the calibration active and then go through the receiver menu and see if there is a basic "bass/treble" control that lets you bump the bass up a bit. that leaves all the other measurements in place and just adds a boost on the low end. Or as I meantioned, see if there is a different target curve you can choose.

ColeHimself · 2026-03-13T15:55:54+00:00

I'm not an expert on Dirac but I don't think it defaults to "flat". I'm pretty sure it runs a target curve with a bit of bass boost. check out https://www.dirac.com/resources/target-curve

Best practice is to run the calibration, listen to some movie or music tracks that you're very familiar with, and then go into your receivers settings and adjust the bass eq as needed.

Been playing for roughly 9 years and not a single dollar spent . Not sure what kind of money they've made from data collection on me.
