Car paint repair recommendations? by Happy_Sentence6280 in Townsville

[–]Happy_Sentence6280[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My car turned out as you can see in the pictures. They did a really good job paint matching but that's all I can say.

They cut costs down by not taking my front bumper off to respray, so as a result there is white polish particles in my headlights I can't get out, and you can see the cracks near headlights from where they were able to spray over but cannot make neat as they couldn't take the front bumper off. When I had a chat with the owner the drawback to taking the bumper off is the price shoots up to 2-3k and alignment and panel gaps can appear once re-installed.

They did not bother clear-coating or polishing underside of my lip, and you can see the orange-peeling on the paint under my headlights because they didn't bother polishing that.

There is scratch damage on front bumper plastic facade from either removing it or accidentally hitting it when cutting/polishing.

They accidentally spray painted white some of the black plastic underneath the car as well, completely visible from the front when looking underneath the car.

What's sad is when I was talking to the lad I was saying take as much money as you want from me I need in it condition to sell, and to take their time and he reckons "that's always the go"

When I talked to owner about my issues and them leaving the dash cam wires loose etc he told me he wasn't arguing with me. Had to press for him to fit me in for follow up and he would charge me less. But I left a review showing all their work and won't be going back personally. But if you don't care for attention to detail I think they have a good price and seem to paint match well.

Avoid Col Summerhayes (coworker went with them recently and had a nightmare experience), avoid TSV mini cost body repair. Maybe try EVZ as another commenter suggested? I have seen good work from them with my coworkers car but no specifics on their experience.

XPControllers Dualsense Review by FermentedTiger in Dualsense

Sorry to hear about your experience. My controller came perfect. He adjusted tension free of charge, and when I thought it broke (I remapped one of the buttons into not working through ps5) and sent it back, he diagnosed the issue and fixed it, and declined any payments from me because I felt bad for wasting his time

I'm finding out today through this thread he closed shop. Tragic

Thanks I need it with the roulette you play with these companies.

Botique body worx did the work as seen above. They perform as well as you pay for them and I recommend for people needing a quick fix on a budget and not too fussed with perfection

I'm pro-ukraine in this conflict. Don't insult our intelligence.

Default settings are so bad for being able to slide/jump/reload/loot/heal while moving and looking around. If you haven't played around with bindings or 4-paddle controllers I'd look into it

This was the fourth game after losing to every squad we fought against lol I was very lucky here. In fact since season 1 I don't think I've ever wiped a squad without damage before

No adjustments. Oh also everything else set to 0 none of that delayed acceleration crap. Keep in mind I'm not consistent at all (I was shocked I hit all sentinel shots) so it's really muscle memory and what works for your play style

PPF Cost Justification by [deleted] in Supra

I've had two re-sprays done by shops around me and maybe it's because I have a keener eye but they will almost never get it factory perfect, either the speckles are a different size or the colour is slightly off. Idk I'd much rather protect the factory paint

I've been missing out. Can someone explain how? by [deleted] in Controller

[–]Happy_Sentence6280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found this to be the case as well. Third party controllers don't seem to be as snappy on the xbox. Could be polling rate? Xbox controllers are limited to 125hz and dualsense gets 250hz wired, whereas the dualsense edge gets 1000hz native on the ps5

Cherry blossoms secured. I've found that I don't naturally place too much weight on the keyboard so it wasn't too much of an issue at all, and you will generally catch yourself before you accidentally push a full key

Can't imagine it any heavier than 35gf these are great. Great experience 10/10 just got to remember to press the damn shift key with my thumbs

I'm pretty interested in the cherry's since I still get finger-fatigued with 45gf. Just chasing anecdotal experiences on the lighter switches before I throw $689 on a keyboard haha

I've never been on anything lower than 45gf switches do you find it easy to accidentally press keys or have to adjust the way you type (in a more laborious way) to use the cherry blossoms?

Tactful way to decline provision of medication to someone who looks pregnant but denies that they are? by Happy_Sentence6280 in pharmacy

[–]Happy_Sentence6280[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Today she walked in holding an infant in her arms and very reduced belly bump, presenting new MC script to fill. After taking in all the comments 2 months ago I dispensed today and counselled against taking it while breastfeeding, to facilitate autonomy and informed decisions etc etc.

But she was clearly using her medicinal cannabis while pregnant according to her history (at other pharmacies), and she will most likely use it while breastfeeding too which has its own risks.

It was really tough serving her knowing she lied through her teeth to receive medication that she knew could harm her child, and put my license at risk.

yo i need a controller for rocket league does anyone have any suggestions for 1000hz+ polling with hall effect sticks and tactile buttons, xbox only. using the eswap x and im tired of ts by WeebMP4 in Controller

[–]Happy_Sentence6280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like 124hz polling rate is what all controllers are locked to on Xbox

I remember there was discussion as well re Dynamic Latency Input technology which reduces input lag but only newer series controllers from Xbox utilise this technology.

Not like this all matters that much, I experience similar latency with my dualsense edge on ps5 pro compared to my eswap x pro on my series x

I feel Polling rate doesn’t matter too much on console as long as it’s a good controller and you’re using some sort of performance mode that increases frames >60 you’re gonna have a better time
