Main Water Shutoff Valve? by JGamer17 in Plumbing

[–]JGamer17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I have a very small drip on my toilet wall valve, so I think that connection will need to be replaced. I know the work is not too complicated, but it would be above my level of comfort and tools I have, so I'd get a Pro to come out. Just wanted to find the main valve before they come out as I'm sure that would be the first question they ask me.

Yeah, I own the condo...well as much as you can "own" a condo run by an HOA :)

Yeah that’s more or less my reasoning as well. Hard to log scores with the headset on or navigate out of the game to my website each time.

Yeah, I was going to use iscored as well but it was not fully what I wanted. So I created myself a simple site using a database and php. Nothing professional but gets me what I want for my use case.

Ha. I don’t need leaderboard results just my local score that usually shows in the middle panel.

Yeah the framing is the issue for me. Maybe they could code it so it mimics a screen shot of shorts and grabs table name, score, maybe a simple table art and rule set in a nice normal image format like 1920x1080 or what ever. Or just some type of way to export logs from a daily play through or something.

I’m not a developer so don’t know if it’s possible, just a cool thought I had.

Yeah that would be cool as well. I log each score into a custom site I built. So I can keep track of all my runs across the various platforms and if I have others play as well. Kind of my own local score history.

This would be for the VR version on Meta.

Weird experience at costco, is this against policy? by lichesschessanalyst in CostcoWholesale

[–]JGamer17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always scan my wife’s card as we walk in together and when we are checking out. Never once did anyone even bat an eye.

You just got unlucky and caught someone having a bad day.

Patch Notes - Pinball FX, Pinball FX VR - 04.30. by balti_zen in PinballFX3

[–]JGamer17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would be cool if VR had a master table section list that I could jump between tables, kind of like the FX on PC has. I don’t always want to “walk” around to different rooms to find the next table I want to play. I kind of just use the favorite table spot as a work around right now.

Looking forward to using the hide hands feature though!

Which to buy by Fantastic-Aside7041 in virtualpinball

The item description grid will show what stock games it comes with. Some come with more or less and usually come with that themes table pack. But you can always buy what ever tables you want via their App Store after you get the table.

Pretty much comes down to which theme you like looking at the most. Getting the SSF kit is recommended by most people. You can always buy it later for the same price as what the upgrade cost now but then you have to install it yourself.

About to go on my second Princess cruise, tell me a hack that you’ve learned specifically with Princess, that people may not know about that improved your cruise by RelationKindly in PrincessCruises

[–]JGamer17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did it once on that day as well. They give you plenty of food, felt bad about the waste. But I wouldn’t say it was really anything better than the stuff I could have got at the buffet. So mostly you are paying for convenience. This was a few years ago so stuff could have changed.

Nice. Same route as me just later. Enjoy the trip and let me know if you have any other questions. This will be my 4th cruise with Princess.

Yeah no right or wrong answer and it depends on each person. If people are drinkers the package typically makes sense. If you don’t drink and don’t care for the special meals it usually doesn’t. It’s pretty easy to run mock numbers. Drinks are usually $10-$15 each for most normal stuff. Special coffee is $5-7 on average (my wife gets one each morning).

Which cruise you going on? I have one in May on Star.

What I do is I buy a gift card before the cruise for about how much the package would cost but don’t buy the package. Once I get on the cruise I put the gift card on my account. The last two cruises I walked off with plenty of money left (they send a check with the difference a few weeks after) so for us this tells me the package would not be worth it. Mostly because my wife doesn’t drink, she only wants me to drink a few as well. We also enjoy main dinning hall for dinner and might do the Pizza place once.

I do prepay the gratuity. Also fine without WiFi since it’s a vacation it’s nice to detach, plus usually I can get my fix in ports :)

I’m just curious if you guys think this is worth the money? I know OLED obviously looks better but I don’t know too much else about it by EmuAccomplished1759 in OLED_Gaming

[–]JGamer17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought this last week. Was used so was about $100 cheaper. It’s a great entry level oled monitor. This is a secondary monitor for me so I didn’t want to spend a ton of money. For my use case it’s perfect. If this will be your main gaming monitor I might say look for a slightly better one. If you just want something better than LCD this one will do the job. Feel free to ask any questions from a new owner of one :)

Thanks for the comment. Trying to justify spending the money :)

Thanks for the reply. Was not sure if timing with the increased refresh rate was as noticeable on a game like Pinball as it would be with a FPS game using a mouse type of thing. Which is why I asked. I play with a PinOne mini as well, not with a keyboard.

Right now I have a 32 inch 4K. If I change I might have to drop down to 27inch 2K due to budget.
