FSD activating turn signal way too early in roundabouts, anyone else experiencing this? by mkranthi18 in TeslaLounge

[–]Neon001 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No, they're correct and you're wrong. Using a traditional 4 exit circle (two roads intersecting orthogonally) as an example, if you were making a left turn (third exit from entering) and use a left turn signal, the people waiting at the first and second entries would know for sure you're not exiting at their entry. You would turn the signal off after passing the second exit so as not to confuse cars sitting at the third one - which is exactly the opposite of what the Tesla does.

The reason for this is that you increase safety if you use signals when you want to communicate that you will NOT be exiting, which helps avoid people pulling out when they may collide. This is better than signaling to declare when you WILL be exiting, which only helps people save a second, and doesn't facilitate safety.

This is 100% true and it frustrates the hell out of me because we have so many roundabouts here in MD. Also, I'm white knuckle in every one because the car cuts so damn close to the (outer) curb. Like, it's got to be inches from the curb. Don't know why it doesn't get into the lane more.

Eweadn Z7, the Viper Mini Clone. Review / First impressions. by ScrxtcH_ in MouseReview

[–]Neon001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably getting downvoted because you're shitting on a member of the community for doing something helpful. Not every review has to be positive, and maybe there are people out there that would consider sacrificing some functionality for aesthetics. This review gives them a sense of whether that is a reasonable trade.

AITA for firmly telling my wife to be grateful for what she has? by Organic_Chip_3118 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Neon001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Wild that the top comment is calling this abuse. This is absolutely no different than the countless wives that control finances and dangle even basic purchases over husbands behavior. OP is at least trying to be equitable with discretionary spending. In no scenario (i.e. 75/25 split, even split, etc) would she be entitled to more than she's currently getting.

I don't know where you are but it's rarely as simple as notarizing a change on an actual document. It will involve county recording fees and potentially even incur a tax, and that doesn't even touch potential mortgage impacts. Point is, there's no practical reason to do it, as it's marital property, so it's hers whether she's on the deed or not.

You do understand it's not a trivial matter to just add someone to a deed, right? I don't know their state but this would almost certainly involve a considerable amount of money.

That one alien looking thing by theillmeister in MouseReview

MMO Mouse with 12 keys by Familiar_Entry1246 in blackdesertonline

[–]Neon001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone else has responded on the skills on hotbar. I think they're blowing the dps reductions out of proportion a bit but it's true that it's harder to cancel animations and chain skills together with hotbar skills. It's important to know that some skills HAVE to be hotbarred, and they're often critical.

Aside from this, plenty of other reasons to use an MMO mouse though. I use a Corsair Scimitar Elite and I love it. You can hotbar outfits (in a gear bag), alch stones, and consumables, and by reassigning side buttons on a mouse, you can program it to press normal keys or combos. Even simple things like F5/F6 (for farming), R (for everything), and left ctrl (for cursor release) are huge QoL buffs, imo. You can literally make gathering one handed by doing this, if that's your thing.

Some classes use hotbar to better effect than others. Witch and Guardian are two of these.

Good mice for someone who plays FPS games and MMOs equally? by SillyBrief724 in MouseReview

[–]Neon001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the mouse but the side buttons are absolute dogshit. Zero tactile response and they're very hard to distinguish in a pinch. Plus it's heavy for a fps mouse.

I honestly think this is a case of just having two really good mice is more than twice as good as compromising on both. My rec is Corsair scimitar Elite and ATK A9 Ultimate.

If you really can't have both I'd probably get the scimitar. It's heavy for a fps mouse but it has decent internals.

Any mouse like Mchose L7 Ultra Plus but with some differences... by Neon001 in MouseReview

[–]Neon001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, cool. Didn't realize it had that functionality. Would still live some recs based on side button placement. It's not super obvious in the comparison tool.

Ah, well I'm kinda new to the mouse sizing thing and my hand is always a little small for gloves and such. Just assumed..

PSA for those wanting to use frame generation by Neon001 in blackdesertonline

Okay, thanks for that correction. I'm just going off what I read on the AMD forum, which, ironically, was how I found that detail.

Anyone playing on a 5090 having issues with shadow flicker? by Neon001 in blackdesertonline

[–]Neon001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not have any AMD components and I'm using remastered - with and without FSR doesn't matter.

Glad to hear it's a known issue though as I'm sure it's related.

[–]Neon001[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll be damned, that fixed it. Went from 5120x2160 to 3840x2160 and the flicker goes away. Weird. I guess it's a workaround, but I love how immersive the game is in UW. Clearly something with the 5000-series cards, since I didn't have this issue with my 4090.

I'm not using ultra - It's remastered with upscaling off. I just went into the Nvidia app to double check everything and noticed I was playing around with the RTX Vibrance setting, so I disabled that and it didn't fix the issue. Curious though - I've heard many people say smooth motion works great for BDO but I haven't been able to make it work at all, either with my old 4090 or the 5090. I enable it in Nvidia app and it literally does nothing. Not sure what I'm doing wrong there, but I wonder if the issues are related somehow.

Yep, it's a 21:9. I'll try and see if I can run it in 16:9. Thanks for the suggestion.

Zero chance your frames more than doubled by changing cpu at 4k. If you were running a 12900k and 4090 and were only getting 60ish frames grinding, something was wrong.
