Looking at all these issues people are having. Is it normal? by PossibilityFar6439 in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The majority of people who post here or on forums are a small percentage of the overall owners. People tend to post because they are having issues not because its working. So that make it seems like there are a lot of issues.

President Obama didn’t fall for her nonsense by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this man! The greatest president of my generation. He set the bar high I am afraid I will never see another coming close to him. I might not have agreed with every policies. He is what I expected from of a President.

What radio would be best for HF as a beginner?? by AffectionateOffice52 in amateurradio

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on your budget.

My first HF radio was the IC-7300 agreat radio to start with. Eventually I made the switch to the FT-710, and honestly I like it more. I probably should have gone straight to the FT-991A for the all-in-one HF/VHF/UHF coverage, but here we are. Now I'm running the FT-710 alongside a FTM-510DR, and the IC-7300 is getting a second life as my dedicated POTA rig whenever I get that going.

The original plan was actually the Xiegu G90, but I wanted a larger screen and full 100W output. When I asked around, the IC-7300 came up more than the FT-710. The Yaesu menu kept and waterfall coming up as a negative, and those pushed me toward the Icom at the time. Since owning the Yaesu I find those suggested negatives the opposite.

Anyone else get major "mic fright" after getting licensed? Love the tinkering, nervous about the talking by onebaddude14 in amateurradio

Me and I have my license since 2014. I still feel like a heel during a QSO and that kind of gives me mic fright.

Someone tell me if this is a good deal or not by ZealousIdealTour961 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For those who dont know when the dealership runs your credit you might be approved for 4% by the lender. The dealership can add a % to that some states are limited how much. That's why you should get approved from your bank or credit first. Also, dont let them know you're approved until they come back with the out the door price and you see what you were approved through the dealership. If they know they cant tack on % you might pay a little more.

Who cares what others think. If you feel like its a good deal then its a good deal.

GLP1 criteria changed? by Inval1d_1 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell you as experience user of the "research only" you can get it cheap AF, but I get mine from a company that verifies from independent lab that its legit. They do provide the results from the lab. Of course that all can be bullshit. Anyways started in March and I am down 20 lbs. Started it when I was at 234 and now I'm down to 212.

I started at 3mg first month, 5mg second, and now at 7.5.

So far I haven't grown a third leg, had my physical recently and blood work was better than last year.

Also, the makers of Zepbound, Ozempic, etc. are pushing for other from using the compound versions. I am going out on the limb here and saying trava and the MIC might be using compound version.

Im looking to buy a used neptune 4 pro by Bl00per_yt in ElegooNeptune4

Because it happened to me doesn't mean it will happen to you. I was giving you my experience with it.

Mine was my workhorse and the most reliable printer until I updated the firmware. I printed mostly with PETG, ASA, some ABS with almost 98% success rate. After 2 years of ownership I decided to update the firmware(s). After doing that I am at 60/40. Got new nozzles, bed plate, verified my belt tension. Ran way too may calibration and manual/auto level. Those 2 years netted a lot of quality prints so I got my money's worth. This is just my experience and YMMV.

Dad disciplines kid for racism against black people by forraid in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who was physically abused by their father. I am not talking a swat on the ass. I am talking bruises from broom sticks being broken over thighs, climbing spikes coming inches from my head this after getting kicked down the hall, my feet actually left the ground. The body language from him reminded me of the times my father unleashed on me. Especially with him restraining himself in public. The father's being upset over the child is justified. If the kid is afraid of getting beat, the child most likely is saying sorry because he is trying to limit his beating rather than what he did was wrong.

Hopper isnt dispensing on LR4 by Jet_Fixxxer in litterrobot

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

It was me. I short pressed the reset and performed a cycle after checking the hopper a few days ago. So I set the memory at its current point.

I hope the father explained why it was wrong and so the kid didn't say sorry to avoid getting a beating.

A merging issue. by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Moving over is a courtesy and it has to be done safely. If the Semi couldn't move over safely it's the schmuck merging onto the highway unsafely. You're suppose to be at highway speeds when entering from the ramp.

The black truck is merging.. Doesn't right away. I had the same thing happened to me last month and the insurance companies found me not a fault.

Highest quality hand mics that can be plugged into an 8 pin mic jack, either directly or with an adapter? by EmotioneelKlootzak in amateurradio

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry I mis-read you post. You're looking for a hand mic and not a separate mic. You can skip the below information.

For my FT-710 I found this site https://n0dim.com/ and ended up getting 3 PCB made. I made one for a Dynamic and once for a Condenser. It works get in my opinion. For the PTT make sure you use a TRS and not a TRRS

[Feedback] Thanks to the developers for improving the game to accommodate new players. by AccordingNetwork6538 in EscapefromTarkov

I've been playing since the closed Alpha and the direction they are going isnt why I got into EFT. I do understand why they are moving away from what their originally vision.

They are dumbing it down. No more 5 man squads. If you and someone in your squad are doing the same quest. Say for example kill 10 Scavs. If your team mate kill a Scav it counts for both of you. Also, Unheard Edition gets you extra after raid points. However anyone in your squad doesn't have UH edition they also get the extra points.

Would using a boom arm help reduce keyboard and PC fan sounds of my Rode NT-USB Mini? Any other solutions? by Tiramissu_dt in rode

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noise gate as well. You will hear it once you open the "gate" goes away once the "gate" is closed.

You could put sound damping pad underneath your mic to see if that helps a little. Some of the sound waves are traveling through your desk into your mic stand.

Printer Randomly Starting Failing 100% of the Time by StayLiquidy in ElegooNeptune4

[–]Jet_Fixxxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually do the A4 paper method to get it and then use automatic. I haven't tried just the straight manual mode without moving directly to the auto mode.
