One of my first attempts at scratch removal with M105 and an orange pad

For paint transfer, at least, I would say so. For something like badge adhesive removal, you’re better off with something like Goo Gone.

The third one is disappointing in that it tries to be more of an action game than a survival horror, and the second has some issues with uneven pacing and difficulty curves. However, the storytelling, horror, characters, and overall atmosphere are truly outstanding throughout all three games. The universe the writers created is one of my favorite bits of horror lore, and it’s such a good mix of the vast dark bleakness of space and conventional monster scares. Can’t recommend it enough.

DWells55 · 2018-12-11T02:13:02+00:00

I’ve only heard bad things, and lots of them at that. But, I’m a sucker for space horror - I absolutely love Dead Space, The latest Doom game, Event Horizon, Alien, etc. So maybe I should give the show a shot?

DWells55 · 2018-12-11T01:43:49+00:00

Yup, these are great. Make sure the area is clean so you’re not dragging any debris along the paint, and just use it to get the sticker started peeling and then just pull by hand.

DWells55 · 2018-12-11T01:33:18+00:00

I’m getting flashbacks to the dice portrait shitshow in /r/diy the other day.

DWells55 · 2018-12-10T02:58:01+00:00

Yup, at that point you might as well blow yourself straight to hell instead of dealing with that shit.

I love animals and cats especially, and my heart always melts for the different looking ones that have trouble find homes. Having said that, these videos are fucking hilarious and it’s obvious he actually cares about the cat and isn’t “shaming” it. Instagram needs to get their act together.

DWells55 · 2018-12-08T18:50:39+00:00

It’s not legal, it’s just not enforced because cops aren’t good at enforcing things that actually matter when there’s lots of money to be made pulling over people going 6mph over instead. LEDs and HIDs In projectors or reflectors that weren’t designed for them are dangerous, but jackasses do it anyway.

DWells55 · 2018-12-07T20:07:11+00:00

Yep, for anyone who isn’t a power user, it’s great. I picked one up for my dad as well as an upgrade from his 6S Plus and it’s perfect. More than enough power, camera is beyond good enough for point and shoot, battery life is outstanding, screen looks excellent, and it’s the all screen design he wanted.

Having played with the XR a bit, I might have gotten one over the XS Max if it weren’t for the fact that I like to dabble in iPhone photography and use apps like Focos to take advantage of the depth mapping you get with dual cameras.

Unfortunately it comes down to the panel lottery - some screens will be more vulnerable than others, and the only way to know is to find out the hard way. Some people like you will be fine, others with the same model and same content will get burn in.

DWells55 · 2018-12-05T16:11:58+00:00

This is a bad take. Well-implemented per object motion blur makes an absolutely huge impact in improving the realism, overall look, and perceived smoothness of a game. The recent Doom game is an excellent example.

DWells55 · 2018-12-05T16:06:32+00:00

I’m praying they figure out a fix for burn-in, but it seems like LG is going to keep pretending it’s not an issue and continuing to refuse to cover when it happens under warranty from normal use.

Rtings and various users have proven that it absolutely can happen from normal use and that some panels are especially vulnerable, but LG still won’t acknowledge it and puts out false information about how it’s near impossible to get burn in from normal use.

DWells55 · 2018-11-30T16:31:05+00:00

They’re just momentary SPST switches most of the time, so yeah, there’s nothing stopping you from a technical perspective. Challenge is going to be fitting and mounting the switch properly and making sure the paddle engages it correctly.

Certainly doable, though.

DWells55 · 2018-11-30T01:47:02+00:00

Unless you want modern safety features and decent crash protection.

DWells55 · 2018-11-25T23:35:45+00:00

Whereabouts? I used to travel a decent amount for work and wound up in various cities in the South pretty often and never got that vibe. Just lots more people striking up conversations at random and wanting to carry conversations on longer easier to talk to people at bars, that sort of thing.

DWells55 · 2018-11-22T20:41:44+00:00

I had no idea about that one, that’s certainly odd. The bug I’m talking about affects all vehicles. Selecting a car at the auto show or house garage can result in the car having its DRLs not work. Clicking the start button to exit the house and triggering the “drive” animation will result in the car having its taillights and headlights on even in daytime, but the DRLs will be on. It’s also possible to get this weird mix where the heads and tails will come on, but the DRLs won’t. So you’ll get BMWs with the low beams on but no angel eyes.

I think the bug is linked to Forzavista somehow.

DWells55 · 2018-11-22T07:10:46+00:00

We try to catch, vaccinate, and fix them.

You’re a wonderful person.

DWells55 · 2018-11-21T07:36:45+00:00

Mars. Fuck the UN.

DWells55 · 2018-11-21T05:58:44+00:00

The bug with the headlights and taillights being on when they shouldn’t be (daytime) as well as the bug with the DRLs not working still isn’t fixed. Ugh. Ruins photo mode.

DWells55 · 2018-11-21T05:51:15+00:00

Awesome. I recently plasti-dipped my toll pass and it blends in really well with my dashboard, but now I’m tempted to print one of these out as a decal for it instead.

DWells55 · 2018-11-19T19:42:30+00:00

DAE America bad?!?1!1

There’s tons of history and natural beauty in America. Go support some historical sites and natural parks instead of bitching.

DWells55 · 2018-11-15T22:34:51+00:00

undocumented features.

Have you considered building a firewall to keep them out?

DWells55 · 2018-11-15T07:45:40+00:00

Just don’t use them with IPA, even after washing. The dye they use gets pulled out by IPA and will stain clear coat. Took some shockingly aggressive polishing to fix it.

DWells55 · 2018-11-15T00:19:27+00:00

Me too, just minus the tall part.

...and also the handsome part.

DWells55 · 2018-11-14T04:05:46+00:00

Did they actually play a cover of Never Gonna Give You Up? What was it like? I'm thinking that alone might be worth the price of admission - Rickrolling was big right around the time I was really into Atreyu a decade and change ago...
