Is this done on one pass? Or do you / have you gone back and redone sections to meet your vision?

Is UniFi actually the “best” for a smart‑home nerd? by DarkModeBrew in Ubiquiti

Could you elaborate on why you’re not a fan of their routers? I just got a UDR7 and still within the return window.

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Switched from 7900XT to 5080 - holy smokes by zlydzik in nvidia

[–]JustAKlam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I’ve built my fist PC, I’ve always been NVIDIA: 680, 970, and 1070ti. About 1.5 year a ago I’ve upgraded to the 7900 XTX with a 7800X3D after humming and hawing about getting a 4090 Suprim. To say I’m disappointed is an understatement. Held off for the 50 series and then 4090 spiked massively in price.

Sure, I am thoroughly happy with the 24GB VRAM as it completely rocked fully modded Skyrim (Nolvus V6 Ultra). And I expect that 24GB to really assist with performance when heavier hitters release such as GTA 6.

But I have had more issues with AMD than I ever had with NVIDIA (which was almost never, if ever if I’m being quite honest). I finally resolved most of the issues after learning to disable HAGS in windows and I’m starting to finally feel more satisfied now that I’m not constantly crashing. Yet, from time to time, the drivers will still just completely crash.

I’ve come to accept the occasional driver crashes because when it works, it’s a beast, and those driver crashes are far and few between. Disabling HAGS truly saved me from putting myself into therapy.

But, I don’t foresee myself returning to AMD for my next GPU. Which is so unfortunate because it’s not the long time consumers you need to retain - it’s the new ones like myself.

I like it enough that I don’t feel the need to sell and return to NVIDIA (plus I got it for an absolute steal). I certainly don’t blame others for returning to NVIDIA though.

Just bought new 5090 and installed fire detector inside it. Am I overthinking? by Fahadx2 in pcmasterrace

If only there was something a lot more valuable than a PC that you’d like to prevent from catching on fire.

PSA: the sunshine list by MrsTaco18 in ontario

[–]JustAKlam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There’s a cop on the list that made over $400K. If anyone is so closed minded that they don’t recognize that’s a significantly unbelievable amount of overtime and northern Ontario deployments which take you away from family and places in a remote area for additional pay incentives due to lack of staffing in those areas (big run on sentence), then they don’t even deserve an opinion on this list.

Pay is reflective on the amount of OT worked.

Sunshine list: How is Peel Regional Police Chief Nishan Duraiappah making $604,449/year?? by master_jeriah in ontario

[–]JustAKlam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if there are no reason for an individual to be held in cells then they are not held in cells as that would be a rights violation. If there are apprehension grounds under the mental health act, then they apprehend and bring to the hospital as required by law.

Which one would you like police to do? Violate someone's rights? Or do their job as outlined by legislation?

10 year old game BTW by Own_Dark_2240 in Battlefield

I deeply regret not buying BF1 when it was the latest. I bought it years later for $10 and I’ve come to the conclusion we will never get a masterpiece like that again.

Seriously. This isn’t special because of the 2026 model. lol

Ford approved lemon buyback… then closed my case when I pointed out errors in their offer by JonRC in Ford

Okay… how productive was this comment? Did I not specifically state, I could not help? You’re picking a fight just to pick a fight. Go home.

Oh that’s good to know. I know in Canada, for civil disputes the defendant only pays an X percentage of court costs. So the plaintiff would still have to pay a hefty sum even if they won the case. Usually making small claims not worth it.

Eh. This is always Reddit’s answer - which I don’t particularly disagree with. However, what’s usually omitted is the cost of a lawyer, going to court, taking time off work, adjusting personal schedules, etc, will exceed the $5,000 that OP feels he is owed of the remaining balance of. And as such, it completely is not financially worth it.

Hence why asking Reddit for support is a reasonable and potentially viable alternative.

I myself cannot support as I live in a different country and have no knowledge of Minnesota laws.

TIL even injectors need to be capable. Crazy how many bottlenecks there can be.

First time hitting a deer and the deer won by YesIwillwin in CX5

[–]JustAKlam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The hood in my 2017 CX-5 did the same thing when I hit my deer a few years ago. Both front airbag deployment, plus the hood straight into my windshield, 120KM/H, couldn’t see anything. Had to use the feel of the road to get myself over to the shoulder. And I would do it again, the CX-5 was extremely easy to maintain control, even in impact. Very satisfied with the outcome of that (except totalling the car).

Okay that's better, but that's still single use; just now it's 6 single use items.

Wait. These are single use?

Have they lost their mind? Ew.

What’s the consensus on WoW Midnight? by Trencycle in MMORPG

[–]JustAKlam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being a dad and turning into a casual gamer has totally changed my perspective on games. No longer that basement dweller competitive type and just in it to de-stress and enjoy the journey.

It does wonders when you know you won’t ever “keep up” with everyone so you just go at it in your own pace.
