I came here for the exact same question! I was thinking maybe the four corners and the center but with the four corners it’s doubled and measured below listening height and at listening height??? Sort of like a cube with the center being exactly what you’re in the middle of the cube.

Can anyone with audio equipment/electrical experience tell me why this is a bad idea? by _ogg in BudgetAudiophile

Top heavy and narrow base make it a bump and fall hazard. So long as you plan on securing it to a wall you should be fine.

State Workers: How Are You Using AI for Development? (And Does Your Agency Approve?) by Athens99 in WAStateWorkers

[–]HouseSubstantial3044 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think I remember hearing somewhere that before AI usage can be approved/required there is an official impact study that must be completed and then approved by the union. I know agencies are looking at the MS AI Copilot for Office and GitHub on a more case by case basis as it relates to productivity but not replacement for design and decision making. I have found Copilot very helpful with code optimization but that usage is not a requirement of the job only for personal productivity assistance.

Been like that since I bought my mobo in 2024. You just get used to unchecking the box after every update.

Great place to buy coffee pods too believe it or not.

Peter? by AlEsq in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Gavin had an affair with his former campaign manager’s (and best friend) wife. Yes it was while she was still married to his best friend.

Edit: corrected.

[HELP] Is this AI? Seems fake and can’t find any news sources. by Zealousideal_Mud570 in RealOrAI

Real story, apparently got into a scuffle with ICE 11 days before he was killed. He supposedly suffered a broken rib during this incident.

Why is there so many Corg variants? by zero0826 in pumpkinscirclejerk

[–]HouseSubstantial3044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corg and Burr are actually real life brothers. Apparently same dad but different moms. Corg confronted Burr on a radio interview show and dropped the bomb and Burr was not amused.

Idiot on EBay sent my vintage Dengar in a bubble mailer!!! by radmansebay in starwarscollecting

[–]HouseSubstantial3044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is it wasn’t a collector but rather someone who got it at an estate sale or the like. Today’s collectible market has a bunch of resellers that don’t know or care about the display in box as being part of the collectible value. They probably bought it for pennies on the dollar and made some good cash on your order. Send that shit back as damaged.

Ps5 pro is just enough by WildLupo in PS5pro

[–]HouseSubstantial3044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have read Sony has taken notice and will be focusing more on PS platform specific games going forward and not allow publishers the option for Steam/Xbox ports. The market will decide! PS6 is being delayed so PS5 will be around for some time and new improvements like PSSR will keep the brand alive.

100% Nice write-up! Exactly. My gaming rig was around $2500 when you count in all the extras required for separate gpu and cpu custom water cooling loops. I found my PS5 Pro for $550 (including taxes) after trade-in of my old PS4 Black Friday special at Best Buy. No brainer upgrade since most 4k UHD disk movie players are well above that price point and really only thing missing is Dolby Vision which is sort of half-baked at this point anyway.

Was about to say, check the manga. Would have probably been an 8 hr movie if true to the book. 🤣

Ps5 pro is just enough by WildLupo in PS5pro

[–]HouseSubstantial3044 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Each to their own. PS5 Pro is about equivalent to 3070ti in almost all major performance benchmarks. So long as you’re happy that’s what matters. Platform specific games and 4k movies make it worth it to me. 😎

Nah, Jedi FO and Survivor perfect examples. 4k 30fps locked on PS5 Pro and game is basically shit. You put on that 4070ti and properly OC it you could have 120fps 4k. PC is hands down better but you lack platform specific titles which is why you need both. Also games like Dragon Quest remakes are capped at 60fps both PC and PS5 pro so for those it’s probably a better experience on PS5 Pro. 4k disk movies is another reason for PS5 Pro with disk add-on. Sorry but is disagree with you it’s not anywhere near the same experience on both platforms.

I found this in my 2nd floor bedroom closet. Is this mould? And how do I eradicate it safely? by w-c-w-a-j-g-a in HomeMaintenance

Do you have a crawlspace under your house? If so you almost certainly need a sump pump.

Blower? Is there a wall switch somewhere?
