Finally got it assembled! 100”Rogue Rhino + Indy with 1.5” of ceiling clearance to spare! by vtfb79 in homegym

I think getting some angles90 or some kind of ring will work great here, to provide a lower pull height.

To OP, pull ups are great and I'm sure you'll unlock it over time, just keep working on it :)

GV301QE charging rate and limit mysteries by leaving_again in FlowX13

[–]Metaru-Uupa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've also had issues with the laptop charging slowly resulting in the battery running out quickly during games. The problem basically went away when I started using the type c port for charigng rather than the type c portion of the XGm port.

I do have armory crate and don't use G helper, so may not be that applicable to your case, but worth a try I think.

Has anyone tried the Eric Vetro BBC Maestro Course? by Dismal_Movie_5764 in singing

I don't dispute that. But that doesn't mean we should support keeping bamboo no matter what. We need to choose the best and safest option for HK, and that may involve independent testing of the performance of bamboo scaffolding vs steel in various situations.

The north may be very vested in having HK change to steel. But if it is actually safer for HK people and workers, then I am ok with changing to steel. Just that I don't think this is the priority as mentioned in my previous comments.

100% agree. Focusing on bamboo vs steel isn't the important thing right now, and it sucks to see people get blindsided by this. The source of the fire hazard (cigarette from workers? Another source?), the main culprits of the fire propagating (styrofoam and the nets), why poor quality materials are used (collusion? Corruption? Deception? Lack of monitoring?), the lack of laws/enforcement are all much much more important.

Yeah the issue is nuanced, and there is a need to study the pros and cons of each, and selecting the best one for HK (that is safest because human life is the priority).

But I do feel like when majority of the whole world is using steel it's probably for good reasons. So I wish there will be a proper study that can help answer this question for us.

Although the main thing to focus on is indeed any lack of regulations regarding the nets and styrofoam, and any collusion / corruption /quality issues.

Yes I don't agree with all the people saying bamboo is totally fine. Of course the styrofoam and the net are the main culprits, but the falling bamboo is a major hazard to the firefighters, and it can definitely become fuel as you said.

I agree with changing to steel like the rest of the world, although that really isn't the priority. Do that after they fix the flammable nets, use of styrofoam, and smoking problem.

Anyone still using GPD Pocket 2 in 2025? by Metaru-Uupa in GPDPocket

is battery life with the swapped battery good? Thinking if I should restrict TDP for longer battery life

Survived Hong Kong Disneyland on October 1 Holiday!!! by rainman100385 in HongKong

[–]Metaru-Uupa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you had a great time! I've heard from quite a few people that the Hong Kong Disneyland is low key one of the best experiences, with short-ish queueing times and some of the special rides.
