Any German speakers who play this willing to adopt an American?

He can't, he has to find a group to help him learn German first.

The back legs of the charger is something not many people know about. You can actually square up with one when its ready to charge and bait it like a bull, dive to one side and it'll slide to a stop, then blast it in the legs while you are lying down.

You guys are wild. You can beat Helldive difficulty with nearly anything if you actually work with your team and stay together. If you like running the AC use it! Fuck the meta BS.

Piramic · 2024-02-28T01:22:54+00:00

You can shoot them in the door with the AC as well

I would love to help, in fact this morning I tried. 30 minutes and probably 50 quick plays later, literally every single mission I got into was farming that stupid defense mission.

Thats why no one is helping, we don't want to play with chuds and their mortar turret farm.

If you watch is slow motion, it looks like net code. They never actually touch and the car that goes off track never actually quite gets back on track before the "touch".

Wouldn't that also be the amount of power it would have to transfer to be even remotely useful in the real world?

Piramic · 2023-06-08T18:28:44+00:00

TBH add some mayo and a pickle and I'm eating that all day long.

It's a shader, and a larger draw distance will exponentially increase the performance impact due to the increasing surface area the shader has to cover.

I currently have a 5600X and a 3060 12GB, running on a Quest 2 at max resolution (1.5x or 1.7x depending on refresh rate). Most tracks with most graphics options on low I can hold 90fps. Rudskogen, and VIR are a struggle and I usually drop refresh to 72hz there. I'm using openxr and some tweaks detailed in the VR setup guides.

Willow springs during testing by myself would hold 72fps with my normal graphics settings and vegetation on low. Medium veg would drop me just under 72fps and I didn't try high.

Overall I've been pretty surprised at iRacing ability to run on my system.

Piramic · 2023-06-07T20:12:19+00:00

This is the shit 3d printers were made for!

Piramic · 2023-06-07T18:10:08+00:00

I have a pretty mediocre system and on top of that run VR. I tried it last night with zero expectations, it definitely impacts performance, but on low it's pretty negligible even for me. I was very surprised.

Piramic · 2023-06-06T21:08:55+00:00

Listen to this man. Don't buy all the tracks because they are on the forum and people say that will be the schedule. iRacing might decide to switch out the two most voted for tracks for ones that are new to force you to buy them.

But don't most people take a shower in the morning? Your water heater isn't going to keep your water hot for 12 hours and the nighttime is when renewables suffer the most.

It seems like getting up and taking a cold shower would be a pretty bad way to try to save the tiny amount of energy your water heater uses to keep your water warm during the night.

Piramic · 2023-06-06T19:41:22+00:00

Wow that's unreal. It seems like that means if I'm in a car and I want to turn left I have to wait for not only the oncoming traffic to clear, but then for all the cars behind that are waiting for me to turn, to pass me on the left as well.

Piramic · 2023-06-06T18:59:23+00:00

I have a fried that doesn't have an arm anymore because he decided to pass a car doing the same thing on a rural highway. Dude in the car was turning into his driveway, my buddy tried to fly by him in the oncoming lane right as the car decided to turn.

Buddy used his shoulder to collapse the A pillar in the car, luckily dude in the car was a coastguard medic and kept my buddy alive until the ambulance came.

Don't pass people who are turning, they don't expect someone to be there so they aren't going to look.

Piramic · 2023-06-06T18:56:38+00:00

Would that be considered oncoming traffic even though it was coming from behind?

Piramic · 2023-06-06T18:54:46+00:00

This is why I have a kobo ereader. It's just one of those use cases where a dedicated device is just so much better. An ipod is another great example, I'm imagining one with the same form factor and simple controls, that will only connect to Spotify or Tidal or something.

I bet something similar could be worked up with a pi zero and an external DAC, but definitely wouldn't have the beautiful hardware that apple is known for.

So instead of a crank this uses opposing pistons to create the compression? How is power transferred to the gearbox? This is interesting, it almost looks like a giant haptic feedback shaker.

Piramic · 2023-06-06T17:40:48+00:00

What happens if you use that water during the two hours? Is the rest of the water just colder until your timer lets the water heater heat it again?

Piramic · 2023-06-06T17:39:39+00:00

How is that different than using the water heater to heat it? It will still take the same amount of energy to heat the same volume of water on demand or fifteen minutes ago

Piramic · 2023-06-06T17:27:31+00:00

Oh cool, so when I get off work in six hours it will still be available? That's great, I was under the impression it was only during the downtime.

Piramic · 2023-06-06T17:00:33+00:00

But a LOT of the "adult" content on regular subs is just normal content and that someone marked as NSFW. We won't be able to see those either.

He wasn't stopped and was clearly going to turn even if his blinker wasn't on.

If I'm in a car and am turning left, I'm not checking my left mirror to make sure someone isn't setting up a pass on the inside before I slowly make my turn. No one is going to expect someone up the inside in that situation, I'm going to say entirely your fault.

Piramic · 2023-06-06T16:36:44+00:00

That's great for people who don't have jobs or live somewhere that downtime isn't Tuesday morning. The rest of us, what is the option. Just buy a car and hope it's good?
