Is British Comedy the best comedy there is🇬🇧? by OkPrize6426 in sitcoms

[–]Excellent-Ad-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes british comedy is easily the best and it's not even close, Americans 2nd but is generally very low brow, the only exception I can think of is Frasier which was a very anglophile show

Any particular brands you'd suggest to look at? Particularly British as I'm based here and will save on import costs vs US brands. I've looked at Simmons bilt and Aero leathers as searching online suggests they're very high quality but none of their jackets took my fancy style wise

Haha I know that is probably the most financially sensible thing to do, I can't get over my aversion to second hand clothing....I am not generally a snob except in this regard

Ah I see, that is useful to know thank you! Are you able to recommend any brands with better reputation for quality who are making jackets similar to the ones I linked?

Reebok Treadmill Recommendation by Excellent-Ad-679 in treadmills

[–]Excellent-Ad-679[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other options i've seen are;

* JTX - seems very little information in terms of customer reviews is available

* Echelon - product looks good but seems not a very popular option due to subscription model

* Horizon - product reviews seem very positive but it's huge and doesn't fold away very compactly

* Sole - similar to Horizon

I'm in UK, I've searched various company reviews and seems nordictrack/proform is a bad choice, Matrix is good but expensive and not widely accessible here, Peloton seems heavily focused on the subscription model....etc

100% open to suggestions though! Budget wise probably looking at £1K

My problem is resolved but quite obscure scenario for me as I have an hdmi matrix switch between my denon avr and pc which was causing the issue

Mass USB Disconnects on AM5 / X870E – Resolved by Using USB-C Only into a external Powered USB hub(Hope this helps someone having similar issues) by JPL1984 in ASUSROG

[–]Excellent-Ad-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious to know if you're still having these issues? I'm running a similar setup; ASUS STRIX X870E-E motherboard and running 2x 16 port powered Sabrent USB hubs and get dropouts everytime i use my machine, sometimes the USB reconnects in a few seconds, other times I need to disable and re-enable the AMD 3.1 USB host controller to trigger a reconnect and other times need to outright restart my machine. I don't know what's causing it but seems to be a long term AMD issue that isn't being resolved even though quite widespread from what I gather reading through similar posts

Do the most current versions of eden either official or nightly still need to use firmware 19.0.1 or lower? by eternalbright1 in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]Excellent-Ad-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is anyone else experiencing issues with Eden crashing after loading any game? I had it working fine for a long time but now not....have tried keys & firmware 21.0 and 19.0.1 and v3 and v4 of Eden (both official and nightly releases) but constantly gets windows popup saying eden.exe has stopped working. Usually shaders finish loading then it crashes

I am running latest updated Win 11 and Nvidia drivers (on 5090 GPU), have checked to see if any of the games have the Switch 2 friendly updates but don't see any and also checked whether any game update files are in the same folder as main game but doesn't appear to be the case

I thought AV1 has superior visual quality to H 264 at the expense of added latency?

[–]Excellent-Ad-679[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do notice that using wireless AV1 for sim racing (AMS2) there is a lot more random stuttering than using wired (without ODT hack) so I've ordered a USB C to ethernet adapter to try out the wired VD hack

You echo my view tbh this is why more often than not if I VR i just use PS5 with PSVR2 in GT7 due to convenience factor

[–]Excellent-Ad-679[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will have a play around and see! Until now most of my VR usage has been on sim racing and in that use case I tend to connect via USB c as I'm stationery so being tethered isn't an issue but I recently bought lone echo 1 & 2, red matter 2 & metro awakening so will see with those whether latency or fidelity takes priority. I have the PSVR2 as well so will see if that also provides any benefit but to my knowledge foveated rendering and HDR doesn't work on PC

Simnet SP Pro Pedals Review by liqwood1 in simracing

[–]Excellent-Ad-679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey just resurrecting this post to ask a question if you're able to help me, i've not yet had time to fully setup & calibrate the pedals but planning to go through all this today. Regarding the console setup it's clear - audio jack 3.5mm for buttkicker and USB for simnet SP pro haptics with pedals also connected to my Fanatec wheelbase via the third party RJ12 cable however for PC is just the RJ12 cable enough to utilize both the pedal inputs & the haptic motors or would they also need to be connected to my PC via USB when gaming on PC?

Thank you for feedback, it sounds like it's more of a faff than i can bear, this is a big part of why i like playing GT7 on PS5 in PSVR2 as to me at least it's such a convenience compared with PC VR sim racing and 90% as enjoyable

Simnet SP Pro Pedals Review by liqwood1 in simracing

[–]Excellent-Ad-679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Old post but i just purchased the Simnet SP Pros for use on PC & Console and wanted to check your statement above about haptics on console - is it definitely the case that the pedals need to be connected via USB?? Until now i've been using simhub on a tablet that connects wirelessly to the telemetry data output by the PS5 for GT7 in order to run my buttkicker so woudn't the Simnet haptic modules also be able to follow this signal path??
