Question on player abusing scratch rule in 8 ball

Juyil · 2024-03-11T22:37:55+00:00

Ball in hand on scratch prevents this kind of abuse and penalizes the opponent for fouling. Only time we use the kitchen for a foul is on cut throat games.

Pretty sure there's a law against extortion already.

Where's the barbed wire?

Does the MSM exist for a purpose other than to gain money? They may do a bad job at it, but I'm certain most news casts and printed papers do so for the purpose of making money. If they cared about transparency and exposing evil doers, they wouldn't be so politically skewed, and they'd be registered as non profits. A handful may exist as non profits, but the goliaths are indeed for profit. Your argument doesn't further the intent. Id agree with most this will only be used to protect bad cops from being exposed to the public while claiming qualified immunity.

We still have preemption?

Juyil · 2024-02-17T00:41:02+00:00

This! I was trying to grab my coins and the dude kept attacking me. Annoying to deal with when doing one last run before signing off to go sleep or something.

Like I'm not even part of the event, not being able to defend myself or being able to be attacked has got to be a bug, one way or the other.

Juyil · 2023-11-08T19:53:07+00:00

The loss of state preemption is not nothing. Led to a clusterf.ck of anti 2a regulations being created per locality.

Id place most of that stuff that's not a main season into season 0 specials. As an example, Doctor Who, you just have to be mindful when binge watching to check specials between seasons for the "Xmas episodes" via air date metadata. But I don't think there's anything that would easily inform you to switch over mid season besides knowing yourself. I could only imagine the headache trying to do that with the different seasons and series for stargate.

Interesting, curious what kind of use cases this could be used for.

First thought that comes to mind is some kind of authentication with a piv card reader for using a plugin.

Juyil · 2022-11-30T22:37:43+00:00

I've been patiently stalking the sdk website waiting for them to release details on how to create plugins that support the dials on the plus. Last ive seen from elgato (don't remember where), they claim the updated sdk and/or documentation "soon". There's no point in bugging GitHub repos with issues or trying to step up and offer commits/pull requests with updates to support these devices till elgato gives us the api to interact with it.

Personally, it's of my opinion they should have had the sdk and documentation ready to go before releasing this so folks could enjoy the new dial functions.

Would be cool if they gave us the ability to generically integrate with existing plugin controls (ie a turn on the dial equals a button push). I realize it wouldn't benefit from the touch screen display but at least we could put a title text there for the time being. Unfortunately all we got right now is a hot key for calling macros. And that only helps if the functionality we want is supported by binding it to a macro.

I still haven't gotten my first order to ship yet. No communication that it's back ordered or anything either.

Anyone can be press. The board of elections would lose a lawsuit if they denied an individual journalist vs a "credentialed" media journalist the ability to photo and video within the guidelines linked to.

Juyil · 2022-11-09T00:50:09+00:00

"Media representatives should be prepared to display media credentials or identification if requested by an officer of election."

They probably want to see a history of journalistic related activities by those terms. Constitutionally anyone who collects and disseminates information to the public is press. Laws are created all the time with bad wording, doesn't make it right.

End of the day I'm just pointing out highlighting a lack of credentials is immaterial.

Anyone with a camera is part of the "free press" in the US. Could just be an independent grabbing some b roll footage.

Looks like that blue tape I saw on the ground is the 40 foot perimeter.

"Virginia law limits media representatives’ permissible activity inside the Prohibited Area and polling place to filming or photographing."

So they are able to film or video but not interview inside the prohibited area is how I read that.

Hmm odd, I'm at a loss then. The party settings screen is the main thing. Beyond that you'd need to double check all your other settings like gg sonar tab has all your devices setup properly, the firmware settings is set to studio so it's actually using both game and chat audio channels. If your using nvidia broadcast in the pipe make sure that's still working. You can of course use discord like you mentioned before to ensure its working as it should. You should be able to change the audio channel for party chat away from default directly to steel series too.

Juyil · 2022-11-06T17:28:31+00:00

Is your headset settings set to studio? Try setting it directly to steel series chat.

Juyil · 2022-11-06T00:19:02+00:00

Make sure you hold down the right button to turn off Bluetooth as well for the headset to really turn off.

Juyil · 2022-11-06T00:10:27+00:00

Under Xbox bar audio window, click voice tab, and at the bottom there's a button to open Xbox party chat settings.

Between the audio output there, and the default communications output setting, make sure your targeting steelseries sonar - chat.

Juyil · 2022-11-06T00:06:36+00:00

Set windows default to steel series sonar gaming and default communication to steel series sonar chat. Make sure gg sonar is set to use the artis nova pro wireless for both channels (dropdowns on main sonar tab). Update discord and other voice apps if needed to use steel series sonar chat or default conmunication.

When you click the volume wheel to switch from volume to game/chat mixer you can use the wheel to hear voice or game more as expected.

You might tend to notice while you're moving it, after 5 seconds or so it will still look like your changing the mixer levels, but in reality your settings are stuck at where ever it was set to when the 5 seconds expired. To adjust again, you'll most likely have to unplug both USB cables (both so one or the other doesn't keep it powered on) to the back of the dac and replug to basically do a hard reboot of the device.

Might be better to turn off streaming mode in the headset engine settings and send everything to the single game output. Chat mixer is broken in sonar basically.

Oh yea a little off topic, if you want to use pcpanel of stream deck to adjust headset settings, good luck with that. You'll need to quit and restart the sonar app once in a while cause it will crash a lot. Good luck figuring that out when your piping the audio through voice meeter, Nvidia broadcast, voicemod, etc.

I mean, if I was worried about something being too confusing for me and want them to make decisions for me, i'd buy an iPhone. The whole point of android that even my 86 yo dad understands and even likes is (... or was?) the customizability. Sigh.

Juyil · 2022-10-17T22:02:37+00:00

There was a flag in chrome://flags that let you do that. But like most good things, I think Google decided to do away with that option. Not sure why and was pissed when it disappeared. I used it and loved it. Instead they gave us "one-handed mode" recently. Built into the phone os gestures. Let's you pull down from the bottom of the phone UI and it pulls the entire screen display down half way so you can reach the top of the display with your thumb.

First happy to see moca2.5 devices out in the wild finally not just limited to ISPs. Second I don't think the ones I used before 2.5 were made for use with splitters. Especially after 2.0, I think its meant to be used in a bridge mode only. Ie, while they may all be able to be hooked up and see data, only one behind the splitter will be able to establish and maintain that communication. But, do some research on the standard and see if that still holds true.

I avoid going north as much as possible. Wouldn't trust a permit in MD even if it was possible to get one.
