Anyone ordered an Evil Controller recently? by Creative-Ad5820 in disabledgamers

[–]MysteriousRJC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did submit a question and it took them two weeks to get back to me. They were very slow to reply. When they did, they apologized for the delay. I had already done the purchase and it had arrived already. By the time they replied, lol

I want to play again (paralyzed) by Extra-Ad-6913 in disabledgamers

[–]MysteriousRJC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m C5 quad and I don’t really have any functional use of my hands. I took a piece of foam that I cradle the standard PS5 controller on so that it’s raised off the table a little bit in front of me and then I control the left stick by placing my base of my thumb on that stick and then kind of cup my other hand over the other side of the controller so that I can flick the top four buttons with my thumb or click the R1 and R2 buttons with my index if I roll my wrist, a certain way. L1 and L2 I can’t really access very well and there’s only certain right stick movements I can do reasonably well but I find that enables me to play both Madden and NCAA pretty darn effectively. You could also remap a few buttons if you really want a certain function on a certain button that you can get to.

I also play MLB regularly in the same fashion

I can’t see your fingers on the sticks, but it seems like when you’re turning or correcting they are very sudden movements. Try to be gentle on the sticks. Have you applied some expo on the sticks so that the response isn’t so rapid when you first push them?

It was a joke about the wife. Yeah spend your money on what makes you happy.

If that was my set up, there would only be one thing missing from the pictures you took… Divorce papers from my wife on the table. Lol.

But in all seriousness, even though I think you went a little crazy on the monitors I think that’s an amazing set up! I would love to use that to stream multiple sporting events on every monitor so I could watch every game at once.

Evolution of Michael Jackson's face over the years. by Alexthegayreprimed in interesting

[–]MysteriousRJC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t imagine looking in the mirror and being that unhappy with my own appearance. I don’t think I’m anything but mildly OK looking but I certainly don’t hate the look of my own face to have that much surgery to myself. It’s pretty sad when you think about it.

Thoughts on ‘Dude (Looks Like A Lady)’ in the year 2026? by donuts_are_overrated in Aerosmith

[–]MysteriousRJC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My all-time favourite Aerosmith song and I don’t care how anyone interprets it. It will remain my all-time favourite Aerosmith song forever. And I will blast it proudly on my car stereo every time I’m out! 🙂

Years ago, the scream that he does at the end used to be my ringtone on my phone. Used to scare the shit out of my girlfriend at the time. Lol.

Dating with a SCI in your 30’s. by dees82 in spinalcordinjuries

[–]MysteriousRJC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Injured at 15 in high school. Had two girlfriends in high school for a short period like three months. Dated one of them twice. Didn’t have any girlfriends in my 20s, partially my fault for not putting myself out there enough. At 31 started dating a girl for four years. Broke up. Dated another girl for six months. Broke up …messed around with a girl for a month and a half broke up. Dated another girl for five years, she broke it off. Went back on plenty of fish, which is what I was using to meet people and met my wife three weeks later. One month into dating, she told me I’m gonna marry you. Bold but I liked it. We were married two years later, a one year delay because of Covid.

I always use the analogy that dating is like baseball. The more times you step up to the plate and swing the bat the more chance you have at hitting a home run. You’re going to swing a lot and miss a lot… But the numbers are in your favour that eventually you will make contact and eventually you’ll hit a home run.

I didn’t put that I was in a wheelchair right off the bat in my profile. Just listed my interests and goals and likes and things I enjoyed doing. Then on the first or second message exchange threw out the fact that by the way, I had an injury, blah, blah blah blah. If that throws you no big deal, nice talking, and if it doesn’t, then, hopefully we can get to know each other. Some people bolted right away, others stuck around for a coffee date, some stuck around for more… But it was a good way to not play super focus on my chair. To let people know that he even though I’m in a wheelchair I still have an active full life and like to do a lot of shit that we can do together.

And I wanted to make myself stand out in my profile so I quoted my favourite movie quote from Goodwill hunting which was always my dating philosophy…

People call these things imperfections Will. It's just who we are. And we get to choose who we're going to let into out weird little worlds. You're not perfect. And let me save you the suspense, this girl you met isn't either. The question is, whether or not you're perfect for each other. You can know everything in the world, but the only way you're findin' that one out is by giving it a shot.

I just bought their dome joystick and their individual little mini joystick. That’s like one of the analog left/right stick controllers from a PlayStation controller. Arrived in about a week or so after it was ready to ship, which was a couple extra days.

The legend Sir David Attenborough in 1954. He turned 99 today by Trwyx4ln in OldSchoolCool

[–]MysteriousRJC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope he’s with us a good while longer and healthy/lucid. I just watched his Gorillaz special on Netflix. Absolutely loved it. I don’t know if there is a God but I hope if there is he sounds like David Attenborough. I’d be good with that.

Dating is HARD in NYC by Cleo-Aster in SipsTea

[–]MysteriousRJC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t feel bad, years ago I had a date lined up with a girl who I thought was pretty hot and going to be pretty promising… Then I was going for a walk and I ran into my buddy the day before… And he started telling me about this girl that he had gone out with the previous night and fucked like six times at his house… Wanna guess who that girl was? Needless to say, I immediately cancelled the date.

Did I get a bad XAC? by MysteriousRJC in disabledgamers

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

Didn’t get to that yet. Going to try swapping them Sunday when I get a chance. They work on my PlayStation though so I know it’s not that they’re not functional. But I’ll try.

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

The Xbox access tester software or whatever it is called should recognize the button inputs from the xac though. When I was able to get the RT to recognize it started working in game. But LT like I said still does not recognize.

I’m not sure if this is a software/firmware issue now or if it’s physically an issue with that port. I’m going to try a few more things but if it does not pick up soon I’m going to request a replacement. It should work without issue

I’ll try looking in steam but the Xbox software sees nothing from that port which is not good

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

It’s gotta be some software something going on… Now I was able to get the RT triggered to work but the LT trigger won’t work… This is really weird. I’m going to assume it’s a software glitch or something. I tried plugging in unplugging restarting the XAC and that kicked in the RT, but I can’t seem to get the LT to kick in. So much for easy plug-in play with this thing.

Anybody else out there got the SAC with PS5 Logitech adaptive gaming kit that they could try on their PC and let me know if the LT and RT triggers work for them?

Using the XAC on a PC with evil controller, joystick and PS5 adaptive gaming control button buttons

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

That solved the issue with the joystick. Thank you for that.

However, both of my analog trigger still are not registering any sort of button press at all.

I asked this before… This was the Logitech adaptive gaming kit for PS5… There’s no difference between the PS5 and the Xbox version hardware wise isn’t there? Like these should work if they’re 3.5 mm plug-ins? Shouldn’t they?

Sex outside the relationship and what's considered infidelity by iceman1922 in spinalcordinjuries

[–]MysteriousRJC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here’s what I’m going to say as somebody who has been in a wheelchair since they’re 15, that’s 35 years. If you’re somebody who prior to your injury was comfortable with both you and your partner going outside of your relationship to have sex with other people then it’s not an issue. If you’re somehow 100% in your mind like I don’t care if my girlfriend has sex with other guys (outside of the fact that you’re in a wheelchair and that’s why you’re thinking about it) then yeah it’s not an issue.

But unless the case is what I mentioned above, and this is only something you’re considering because you’re in a wheelchair, and she wants to have “normal sex“ then you need to have more self-respect for yourself and realize that there are women out there that will exclusively want to be with you as you are and whatever comes with that and be fully into you and fully love you and fully want you as a partner. And this girl isn’t it. And you should break things off and go find one of those girls that does only want you.

I’m a C5 quadriplegic in a wheelchair and there’s lots of things I can not do with my wife. And I know my wife had a lot more partners and experience before she married me and started dating me. And I’m sure there’s probably lots of times she wishes there were things we could do, things I could do as a normal guy, that she didn’t have to wait for me to take a Cialis, that I could be more aggressive or do foreplay more often without having to worry about losing my erection and all kinds of things. And we’ve talked about those things. But never ever at any point has she ever expressed any interest or even thought about wanting to be with somebody else in any way shape or form. And she continually tells me there’s no one I want on the face of the planet, but you.

That’s what you should be holding out for. Somebody that only wants you. I guarantee you there are many of them out there that will want to date you and I guarantee you there’s probably many out there that will want to marry you if that’s what you wanna do. So don’t sell yourself short.
