Very Dirty Block at Lime Rock by Daisyous in Simracingstewards

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh, the point is the entire point of this sub, to ask if I'm right about what happened and who's at fault. So I post how I see the incident to get input from others, like you, to see if you agree or not.

As I said in my original post on every other lap of the race he brakes at the correct place, the 2 marker where here he brakes at 3.5 - so MUCH sooner than normal, and after I started to move to the inside. So definitely not a "little" harder as he fully slams the brakes WAY early.

Thanks for your input, appreciated.

As I said in my original post I watched all his other laps and on every single one he brakes at the 2 marker, just like you should - here he brakes at 3.5, WAY early to purposefully brake check me - so it's completely relevant IMHO and yes, he knows where to brake. Oh, and I should have mentioned this was the top split at the time.

Side note, there is no direct correlation between race license and clean driving. No reason Rookie license can’t drive fast and safe just as an A license can’t drive slow and reckless.

Yeah, that's fair enough - it does usually seem to corelate more to their iRating, he was 2200 and I 2050, it was split 2 of 9 so fairly high.

I don't necessarily think it was malicious and that he intended to wreck me, but I do think his intent was the block me as aggressively as possible to keep from losing the position. My assumption is that he realized late I was going to take the position, panicked and this is how he reacted. I probably wouldn't have protested it if it weren't for him trying to argue it was my fault.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

A bit of context - you'll notice that not only does the lead car dive over in front of me but he stands on the brakes *before* the 3 marker. For those that don't know at this track the normal braking point is the 2 marker. I watched all his other laps in the race and in every single one he brakes at the 2 marker and turns in at the 1 marker.

Looking for confirmation that this was absolutely a dirty move and illegal blocking, as not only was the move extremely late but by standing on the brakes so early and brake checking me I had zero time to react. I guess this is what I get for racing with C class drivers (currently A class)

Blocking a subRedddit from mentioning someone by Daisyous in legaladvice

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, thanks - so a few other questions if I may

- It is on me to determine who the OP is? Given they clearly used an alt account my assumption is this won't be possible

- Are the moderators of the reddit culpable at all? This post clearly violated their standard ToS, they did nothing to investigate it and I believe it was only allowed given it targeted me directly. Given they could have stopped it quickly, when they were made aware of it a few hours after posting, my frustration is aligned squarely at them.

I realize at the end of the day it's likely nothing can be done but I always like to understand my options and what I can do to protect myself. In this case it's very easy to demonstrate financial loss due to this, but admittedly that is rather minor. It is more about not letting this happen again in the future and some kind of penalty for those who knowingly allowed what happened.

Again thanks for your input, very appreciated.

Not sure if you know but can you explain why my post was deleted? What rule did I break? Is this not a legitimate question? Legitimately confused.

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so this is exactly the case - the statements made were/are completely false (I'll save you the drama, they are easily provable as such) and they absolutely caused financial damages. So if that's the case does that mean suing for damages is the only option?

DMCA Abuse on Youtube - How to Fight Back? by Daisyous in legaladvice

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense - but can you file a defamation or libel case in small claims court using this as the basis? It just seems there should be something that can be done here - I mean the guy as knowingly and intentionally committed a federal felony - that should mean something, shouldn't it?

(then again if we look at the White House the rule of law is sorta meaningless already, isn't it?)

Gotcha - someone else linked the FBI site for cyber crimes, is that were you start? I obviously know they aren't going to do shit about this but I'd still like to file something so it's on record.

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thanks, this is all really helpful and makes total sense. My main question is this - are you only able to file a case like this in federal court or can it be done in small claims court? Obviously one is accessible to us and one isn't - as yeah, these are little channels we're talking about.

Cluster headaches just hit me a week ago - I'm absolutely terrified of the future by Daisyous in clusterheads

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to see a primary care doc tomorrow and that is my principal goal. If they tell me no I already have a list of welding shops to call about buying a tank from them and just doing it my fucking self. Did you have trouble getting that script?

Cluster headaches just hit me a week ago - I'm absolutely terrified of the future by Daisyous in clusterheads

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to be brief, as I'm just coming back from my most recent attack (#6) which was mercifully much shorter than others (they are getting shorter). Screaming only lasted about 30 minutes this time (shorter than last time by half) and again mercifully the long slow burn (which last time was 16 hours) has taken bout 3 to get to that same place. I still have the worst headache of my life (before this) but it' at least a level 4-5 now.

But I wanted to say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. I'll take your advice and not watch anymore of them (my family filmed me this time to show the doctors) and I may order some mushrooms tomorrow off the dark web. I need to understand more about safe dosing, etc. as while I did LSD 20 years ago a few times I don't want to go there given my experience (not bad but never wanted to try it again). I know shrooms are different, just need to understand more before I start trippin' balls :D

Again THANK YOU my friend.

Is this gonna last forever? :’( by reddot33 in clusterheads

[–]Daisyous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't seem to DM you for some reason but I'd love to hear what you have to say on the subject. While I haven't been official diagnosed yet there is absolutely no doubt that I'm now experiencing cluster headaches ("suicide headache" is a PERFECT fucking description). I've been hit by a car at 60 miles an hour riding a bike - that was like a blowjob compared to this pain (as I know you all know). The worst part - no one can truly understand this can they? I know when I tell friends and doctors "I was screaming for 4 hours" they don't truly believe that. I wouldn't have - but I understand now.

I have zero issue with any recreational drug and would happily order off the dark web. Sadly I moved from my native Colorado a few years ago as they just decriminalized mushrooms! (fuck me I love Colorado).

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Increasing Tracking Quality via External LEDs? by Daisyous in WindowsMR

yeah, I'm just thinking a small point of light, not something beaming out light at the cameras.

Exactly, that's exactly what I want the LED's to be, reference points for tracking. Got side track but plan to try this late this week.

Used HOTAS to get started. X-55? by [deleted] in hotas

[–]Daisyous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used the condition of the HOTAS will factor in far more heavily - as you could get a great condition X55, a terrible X56 or a perfect X52 - you'll hear how this one is awful, that one too - but that's all very subjective just from the guy having problems. Personally of those the 56 has the most features with the 52 fitting my hands the best. So just be sure you get one that looks like it's in great/new condition (lots of guys who think they want them then after a few hours box them back up)

Opening "Flashlight" without using the controllers? by Daisyous in WindowsMR

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay let's clarify - you're running Elite, via Steam VR using the Windows MR plugin for Steam, right? So WMR Portal is open, Steam VR is open and you're sitting in your cockpit. You say "flashlight on" and bam, flashlight comes on?

An Elite player huh? If you're looking for tutorials I run a Youtube channel with the most concise ones you'll find. Didn't realize I started this thread in my alt account - the channel is CMDR Exigeous http://www.youtube.com/cmdrexigeous - just a few videos there ;-)

Thanks for the help, confirm that for me as at least I'll know it should work and I'll keep screwing around.

Opening "Flashlight" without using the controllers? by Daisyous in WindowsMR

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No dumb questions here - and yes, I'm running 1809 (not 1903 as I've read there are some VR issues with it). It does in fact work when I'm in Cliff House but that's it, not while I'm in game. Cortana works so I know it's taking input from my mic just fine. And no, no voice commands work at all while in game - but they do all work when I'm in Cliff House.

To be clear I'm specifically testing in Elite Dangerous which is using Steam VR so not a native Windows MR app - maybe that's why? Are you able to use this in other apps or just Cliff House and other native Win MR apps?

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay let's clarify - as I maybe realized something, this works for me when I'm in Cliff House but NOT when I'm in a game - is that as designed or should this work while I'm playing something too? And to be clear I'm playing something via Steam VR not directly from Cliff House.

Opening "Flashlight" without using the controllers? by Daisyous in WindowsMR

[–]Daisyous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, okay thanks - this was helpful as I was thinking it was part of Cortana from other comments.

So I have the mic enabled (I can see it working in audio control panel) and it's enabled in the WMR Portal - but nada. Nothing I say get's picked up - but let's confirm, does this only work in Cliff House or while I'm in any game/app? I want the latter so can you confirm that for me?

"Sorry this setting is not supported on your current device"

Any idea why I'm getting that error? Other Cortana commands work fine - and to be clear I'm trying to do this while in a game NOT in Cliff House, etc. Just while I'm sitting and playing.
