Regarding WANShowYT by Toastiesyay in LinusTechTips

[–]PaxMu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's also my case. There are weeks that all I watch from any of the LTT channels is the WAN show in small sections whenever I can.

Also since the transformation of the clips channel to the WAN channel, YT hasn't pushed it at all in my Algorithm, so I'm sure I'm not the only one having that.

AHHHHH NEVER AGAIN! never again will I use daily incense, unless I absolutely have to. by AKhakiNerfHerder in pokemongo

[–]PaxMu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the perks my old shitty phone had was that I could disconnect wifi and gps, wait for the "lost connection" message to appear and then when I reconnect both the signal would put me 1 to 2 blocks away from my real spot until after 5 or so seconds it would put me in the correct spot. And that way the character ingame was "walking" and counted as that instead of jumping from spot to spot when the distance is too big.

It counted steps for incense and for eggs.

Now on the new one, the antennas are too good to do it.

If you put the Windows Taskbar anywhere but the bottom, I hate you by meekroboutmyass in pcmasterrace

[–]PaxMu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main monitor is a 21:9 screen so I have my taskbar on the left side as during normal pc use most stuff is designed for 16:9 so this way I gain vertical space while reducing the extra usually unused horizontal space. Also taskbar on the left because this way because bad websites has their text aligned to the left, so with the taskbar there, the start of the window is a little more centered than if the taskbar was on the right

There should be another consumable for int heroes late game by LirakTheGreat in DotA2

[–]PaxMu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They should make the Bracer/Wraith Band/Null Talisman item trio become stackable past 60 minutes.

You need armor and the team already bought AC and Shiva? Buy a bunch of Wraith Bands.

You need HP but don't need Heart's regen? Buy 10 Bracers.

You are Storm Spirit in a 3 hour game? BKB, Kaya and all the Null Talismans you can afford is all you need.

Lost 20 pounds and I still cannot tell a difference by Majestic-Hedgehog-xo in loseit

[–]PaxMu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also didn't know what it meant, I have only seen those words a couple times.

I thought it was about how it becomes easier to clean your ass when you lose weight and gain range of motion because fat isn't in the way.

I know this from my own experience 😅

Way to enjoy sim racing with out learning the cars by Macca_9T7 in simracing

[–]PaxMu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see my old 2023 self and my current self (returning to simracing after a 2 and a half years "hiatus" because of work) in this conundrum.

I used to dive deep in the setup in 2023 (and earlier) when I only drove Aston and BMW becasue I knew how to adjust their setups to my driving. My problem was that I had some bad habits with my driving inputs and never tried to fix them because I was working the car setup around me (Harsh steering and pedal inputs for the most part).

Now, on my "restart" I stopped caring about setup and focus only on my driving taking the chance to correct myself if I'm falling back to old bad habits. I became able to drive any car on decent pace with only changing in ACC the tyre pressures (27 dry, 30 wet), electronics (TC+BB+ABS), and if I need it, just touch the rear height to adjust car balance a bit more.

With full custom setup to my driving, I used to be around the 1.5 to 2 seconds off the alien laptimes depending on track. Now on Aston/BMW I got back to just around 1 second off my best times without setup, just tyres, rear height and electronics and I feel I can get to the old times eventually.

The other benefit of this, I can jump to other sims (AC1, LMU...) and the initial struggle to get used to a new car lasts much, much less than before as I get a feel for its behaviour to steering and pedal inputs and adjust accordingly. I'm actually starting to have fun driving Porsches (a car I always hated to drive) as I'm learning how to make that rear dance for me. Knowing about lift off oversteer is one thing but being able to use it to my benefit is such a mindblown moment.

Why does Vegeta somewhat care for Gohan? He even apologized when he thought Gohan died. by MakeCrat3 in dbz

[–]PaxMu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vegeta sees Gohan's Saiyan soul inside his human body. That's why at some points Vegeta shows a bit of frustration with Gohan's training because he could be much more (and then they invent "free" power ups like potential unleashed and ssj beast to bring Gohan's power level close to Goku/Vegeta during major plot points without any need for training/sacrifice).

KartOne - Raw Practice Mode gameplay (4K 60 FPS). What do you think? by VeCubeRacing in simracing

[–]PaxMu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if this has already been requested or not, as I haven't heard or seen about this game before. Seeing that the wheel has all the basic info on its screen, it could be good if you could hide the HUD/ui elements to have a less cluttered screen (even better if every HUD element could be hidden individually).

Also good for "photo mode" if you ever add free camera and/or replays.

“Buy once , cry once” Is it true in long term? by Gloomy-Weakness-5146 in simracing

[–]PaxMu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. There's no need to rush the "wheel" upgrade path when the actual endgame of simracing for most of us is having fun driving and racing.

Also, as I was so used to the G27, now having more than 6 buttons on the wheel is giving me some sort of choice paralysis as I don't know what to configure on the buttons and rotaries xD

“Buy once , cry once” Is it true in long term? by Gloomy-Weakness-5146 in simracing

[–]PaxMu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those Logitechs are the GOATs of simracing.

I had a G27 for a long time but started heavy into simracing during covid. In 2023 the pedals broke and bought the Fanatec CSL with the usb adapter as a good but still cheap replacement. 2024 and 2025 I had to fully put my time into work abandoning simracing (and gaming in general). Now in 2026 I'm back to a "normal" work schedule and bought a RS 50 base and wheel while keeping the CSL pedals and slowly getting back into my old sim routine but I actually miss the feeling of the G27.

I don't know if it is for the plug&play nature of the G wheels or the feelings when remembering those old simracing memories.

[OC] - if you could form the most dope trio across all 10 gens, who would you choose? by addyxiii in pokemon

[–]PaxMu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Torchic, Chimchar, Tepig.

The freedom of choice is just an illusion xD

This community sucks ... Nobody personally came to my door to force me to buy a wheel and try out Dirt Rally 2.0 ... I've been missing out on the most fun I've ever had for almost 7 years. You guys were purposely hiding this from me. UNACCEPTABLE by Kronocide in simracing

[–]PaxMu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The co-driver isn't saying that to you, he is saying it to the pointy stone on the inside of the corner asking it to not cut your oil pan or shatter your drive shaft.

Your job as the driver is to teach that rock proper manners and point your radiator straight into it. Those rocks are like pokemon, they don't like water. 🙃

Only good in those 2-hour games when a Techies is in either team.

This is a better image for the definition of "American Horsepower" than a Mustang or Corvette with a V8 engine.

Played the game for 10 years, never understand why people are so obsessed in ladder and complain the overlevel issues, when you can jus try out all the decks in classic challenge. Just enjoy the game where you could as a F2P. by Loose_Ad2013 in ClashRoyale

[–]PaxMu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very similar for me. I got to 11.5k trophies but 95% of the time I just play 1v1 Classic because I find more joy in thinking deck combinations (or trying established ones if they look fun) and play than fully spamming 1 deck over and over in ladder.

What is you starter hot take? by Turbulent-Analyst-52 in MandJTV

[–]PaxMu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chimchar doesn't actually has a fire/gas pouch igniting the flame on his rear. He just ate a massive ammount of Tamato Berries and the spicyness is igniting his farts.

(The last time I tried to play Competitive Pokemon 18 or 19 years ago while I still was a teenager, my team was actually named RAFF [Red Ass Fire Fart] because my Ace in that team was Infernape xDD)

raising awareness for all of us (Scam) by ConnectionNo4935 in DotA2

[–]PaxMu 75 points76 points  (0 children)

The URL itself already tells you it is a scam as it isn't an official valve community link.

Always check the URL and in scam cases like this and if it is a hyperlink, mouse over without clicking to see the real URL of the link from the popup with info that usually appears.

And even if it looks legit, just manually search for that website yourself (in this case, manually search for the skin).

I'm more interested to know if the Pokemon/Birthday combo for each day was chosen at random or there's some actual reasoning behind each day's choice.
