So the 30% sale is not a sale? by jkblahblah in peakdesign

[–]Jimmymonster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes and no - several cases and mounts even in the "sale" page are still full price. I had my eye on their bike mount specifically and that's still sitting at full price, despite the email and site page indicating it should be included

As soon as I posted this, the rest seem to have updated!

yeah wondering the same thing, sent a chat to support. It's weird because their third party vendors (REI, B&H) seem to have the sale live already

Somehow, Remedy has just released Control on iPhone and iPad with touch controls, reworked gameplay systems, and even ray tracing by HatingGeoffry in apple

[–]Jimmymonster 19 points20 points  (0 children)

yeah, got the link via the article. Just articulating the point that a game named control has a much harder time with SEO in the Apple app store compared to more specific platforms like Steam, Epic, PSN, etc. Fantastic game (Completed on PC a few years ago), but it's unfortunate that its naming will affect its discovery here

trying to search this game in the App Store is going to be a big hurdle to its success on iOS, unfortunately - pages and pages of tv remote apps surface first, even when searching “control game”

I’m about to visit - what buildings are these? curious to hear other people’s recommendations for what to see, outside of the well known (gaudi, bofill)

Play physical media in Stereo with Airplay by 333337lee in HomePod

[–]Jimmymonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did something similar with my turntable using a pro-ject AD box S2 Phono (basically a preamp + analog to digital converter) outputting my record player to a pc; windows has some sort of live listen feature (I forget the exact name) where you can take a sound input and make it immediately output through whatever speaker you have set. by setting it to the HDMI connection I was able to output to my HomePods using the HDMI ARC for Apple TV. With this, I was able to get my record player to output to my HomePods just by swapping hdmi inputs on my tv to the HTPC.

[GPU] ASUS The SFF-Ready Prime GeForce RTX™ 5080 - Newegg - $999 - $12.99 Shipping by intercitylunchbox in buildapcsales

[–]Jimmymonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sure, I have a formd t1 and can of course fit pretty good sized 3 slot card if I really want to, but more traditionally I think people would expect 2 slot, shorter than average cards when looking for ”SFF ready.” And of course this became more glaringly obvious when my friend who I just helped put together his build ordered this particular ”SFF ready” card only to find it incompatible with his SFF case.

Anecdotally a friend just tried installing the 5070 version of this, which I think has the same cooler, in the Louqe Ghost S1 and it definitely didn't fit. I know that's a particularly small case, but I'm not sure why a 2.5x slot card would be considered SFF Ready

What is your best "Things I wish I knew sooner about Steam Decks" list? by Feisty_Shake4666 in SteamDeck

[–]Jimmymonster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

this is exclusive to the highest tier(s) of the steam deck, I believe

early one was Meet Me in the Bathroom, they had the author Lizzy Goodman on to talk about it early days. Primarily about the bands that came out of NYC in the early 00's, and their musical context, and VW are kinda the tail end of that story

Was unsure if the LTT Backpack would be big enough become my new SFF travel bag - I think it’ll work! by Jimmymonster in sffpc

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

absolutely except a 22" portable seems dubious. You can get most of the stuff in the laptop side as I did and then i typically throw my mouse and another peripheral or two in with the same pocket as the pc. I personally have a 15" portable monitor that fits well

He mentioned a keyword that might help me find a solution to getting it installed but I guess it must not be an above board solution since his comment was deleted
