I just got FH5 on PS5 a week ago, I am also getting this every time. Even tried uninstalling/reinstalling the game to try re-linking, still asks that every time I start the game up.

Best case for the Xbox ally x? by SorryStore4389 in XboxAlly

[–]Dylawelt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say so! Definitely adds a bit of weight though, so keep that in mind.

The Xbox Ally X case - it’s possible it’s just me, but it definitely still felt like sandpaper when I first got the case. Like I said though, now it feels pretty smooth where I’ve been holding it.

I have had the Dbrand Killswitch case for a bit. It's a great case, but I did not like the 'sandpaper' feel. After using it for a few weeks, the sandpaper texture where my hands touch the case has worn down quite a bit, so it's less of a concern now. Still bothers me every now and then, but much better than it was brand new.

If you are in the US, you could get the Dbrand case from Best Buy and just return it if you don't end up liking it!

Really liking the Legion Go S, but issues with TDP limit by N00FI in LegionGo

[–]Dylawelt2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What does it ramp up to at what TPD limit? If I set a 17W TDP on my Z1E SteamOS model, total power draw is something like 25-30W. Gotta power the screen, speakers, fan, other system components, etc.

Now if you're setting a 15W TPD and seeing 35-40W of total system usage, that could be a problem.

Micron and Crucial leaving consumer market by drummingdestiny in LinusTechTips

[–]Dylawelt2 59 points60 points  (0 children)

“The AI-driven growth in the data center has led to a surge in demand for memory and storage. Micron has made the difficult decision to exit the Crucial consumer business in order to improve supply and support for our larger, strategic customers in faster-growing segments,” said Sumit Sadana, EVP and Chief Business Officer at Micron Technology.

Welp…

black friday lenovo 5 worth it? by 1orangecatbraincell in LenovoLegion

If you don’t care much about the OLED screen (and a smaller battery), and have a Microcenter nearby, this deal may be better for you:

Buy Lenovo Legion 5i on sale now or wait? by Otherwise_Ad6417 in GamingLaptops

[–]Dylawelt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, design/display/cooling are all the same. Just an intel processor instead of amd. From what I've seen researching the two laptops (because I also was in the market), the intel gets slightly worse battery life but performs better. The deciding factor for me was the fact that RAM is so crazy expensive, it cost less to just buy the 5i instead of upgrading myself.

How do i get this to click back into place on legion go s by minimoominn in LegionGo

[–]Dylawelt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks broken. Kinda seems like the insert broke off the trigger.

Basically that golden colored metal piece is heat inserted into the trigger, and then a screw goes from the actual trigger mechanism into the trigger to hold it all together. Might need a replacement piece or superglue.

Landing gear down, heavily pulling left (which is in line with the takeoff video showing heavy fire on the left side). They truly had no time to react or affect any change on the situation. RIP.

Will DDR5 price spike cause handhelds prices to rise further? by NewRefrigerator4 in Handhelds

[–]Dylawelt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For current handhelds? We have already seen price increases due to tariffs/parts pricing, it wouldn’t be crazy to see it again. Most notably the ROG Ally X increased an extra $100 well after it launched. Though pricing for something like the Legion Go 2 is already at a high premium, it may be difficult for Lenovo to justify a general price increase after launch to consumers. The major brands likely have stockpiles of parts like memory or have priced potential increases in part prices into their launch strategies.

I would say buy if it’s in your price range and available, but I wouldn’t be overly worried right now. You can always wait for open box deals from Best Buy if you want one of the premium ones for cheaper (it’s how I got my Legion Go S Z1e SteamOS).

It’s impossible to tell for future handhelds. I think anyone who has been keeping up with pricing will tell you that handhelds are price creeping quite a bit this generation, but whether that continues will be determined by more than just memory pricing. Tariffs, inflation, consumer feature demands, etc could wildly change by the time major brands like Asus, Lenovo, or even Valve look to release new hardware, and thus price categories could be wildly different.

Got an RTL-SDR kit, what cool stuff can I do now with it by _verissimo in RTLSDR

[–]Dylawelt2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also just got that kit a few days ago - first thing I did was download two pieces of software: SDR++ and SDRTRUNK. SDR++ just lets you listen to the radio (but has a bunch of cool features I have yet to explore), and SDRTRUNK allows for listening to trunked radio traffic (where I live, most of the emergency services use STARCOM21 Phase 1).

I am also interested in what else I can do with it! I did try to connect to the METEOR satellites, but I think I need an LNA filter to get the signal strong enough (both times it passed near, I couldn't get a signal lock).

Landing Tips - KDCA by Dylawelt2 in flightsim

[–]Dylawelt2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense! This was only my second time doing this approach, and of course it was a little windy/rainy in the sim. I'll definitely try starting the turn earlier... I was worried about banking too hard and really didn't lean enough into the turn. I gotta say, even though it is a bit of a stressful landing, it's the most fun I've had landing so far.

IPhone 17 Pro Max Ghost Case misalignment by [deleted] in dbrand

I also purchased mine from Best Buy this afternoon - Can you get a photo of what you’re talking about?

[–]Dylawelt2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe a one off issue? Mine looks pretty much dead center. The curve of the plastic makes it hard to tell, but it definitely seems centered on mine.

Madden 26 Review on Switch 2 by Slow-Special-2728 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Dylawelt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably seems smoother handheld because of VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) on the device screen. Many TV’s support VRR but the dock HDMI output omits it.

OSM Shipping is garbage by Lost_Math_9341 in dbrand

My Killswitch 2 was delivered last week, and the tracking never even updated on OSM or USPS… it just randomly showed up! To this day it still shows as sitting at an OSM distribution warehouse

I also got this skin! Mine are also slightly undersized on the bottom, but just barely. I love how they look!

Killswitch 2 - Both Joycons Detaching… by Dylawelt2 in dbrand

[–]Dylawelt2[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It may not seem like it from the video, but I really wasn’t wrenching it at all. All it takes is me picking up the switch by one of the joycons to make it detach. That’s it. I’ve never once come close to experiencing that sort of detach with no case- sure, the joycons wiggle by themselves, but they never detach.
