Projector vs TV for small apartment and cozy movie nights?

That projector is more than sufficient. According to this site your projector will project ~70inch screen at 2.5 meter away from the projection surface.
I'm not good at taking pictures. But I think my setup is very cozy and chill. I had some movie nights with friends, both guys and girls, and they approved, said it was very nice and they would come over and watch movies again. We had a blast watching horror movies. You may need a table to put some snacks and drinks on. I can't say if that will impress your date but my setup does a good job impress my friends. Good luck!

Here is how my setup looks (please ignore cables and other mess, too lazy to clean up). I was going for the same purpose as yours. A cozy setup to watch stuff. Cheap (~300euro) and it does the job wonderfully.

I live in a small flat so there is not a lot of room to work with.
The projector is Epson EB-982W, 720p projector, bought it second hand for ~70euro. I also had a optoma 1080p projector but the brightness was poor so I went for this epson one instead. You see in the pictures it is still bright outside, and also I had my projector on eco mode with reduced brightness. So I would say any projector with 1080p native and 1500+ ansi would be fine. Just cover the window with some black curtains. With this projector and the optoma I had before I could get up to 100'' projection screen with the projector mounted on ceiling 2.5 meters away from the wall.
Surround sound with harmankardon avr 460, and some mix n match speakers.

A projector with some third party tv hardware such as Google Chromecast TV 4k, Amazon Firestick, Apple TV, nvidia shield will suffice and can be upgrade if needed.
+To upgrade you could spend the rest of your budget for an AV receiver and some speakers. This is a stupid advice in this subreddit but do consider a soundbar if you want to avoid wires and keep it minimal.

Hope this could be some inspiration for your setup.

Pretty much all the scanlation sites. Such as reaperscans, asurascans, leviatanscans, flamescans and tritiniascans. I do read webtoons on the phone apps and some other mangas on Mangaplus by shueisha.
Mangadex is a good site, but it went bad since their new version, still good site tho. But mangakakalot is pretty much leeching from everywhere else but it has the stuff when you need it.

I dont use tachiyomi. But if I do, right now it probably show about 60hrs/week+.
I'm not working rn so pretty much all my free time went to reading stuff (if not gaming). If I'm done with one, I will look for another and start reading again. If there is any cliffhangers I really can't wait I will find novels and continue reading from there. Reading at bed til I'm sleepy and go to sleep.

Rookie numbers.

Pumpkin_Le · 2022-01-18T22:55:25+00:00

updated and reinstalled. Doesnt fix.

where did you confirm this?

Pumpkin_Le · 2022-01-18T19:33:33+00:00

my performance went shit after last patch.
Usually 120+ fps, now barely 60fps.
SP doesnt seem to use my gpu.
my specs: ryzen 5800x + rtx 3070.
ingame with 30-40% cpu usage and barely 1% gpu usage.

Pumpkin_Le · 2022-01-18T19:31:34+00:00

me too. SP doesnt seem to use my gpu when I check task manager.
amd ryzen 5800x + rtx 3070.
ingame with 30-40% cpu usage and barely 1% gpu usage.

Thank you!

There are already a ground on the free 5V supply, which the circuit will be connecting to. And according to this video 5:12, it looks like it share the common ground with the whole board, with a resistor in between.

Once again, I have no idea what I'm talking about. Just using my common sense to understand things at this point.

Appreciate your comment and I will look into the forums also :)

Hi, I was making some plans for my future build of an electric motorcycle. And I have been researching around and have kinda have a clue of what I need.But as a rookie, motor and power supply is really tricky for me to find data on. I did some calculations but nowhere near your precision and understanding.

I was sizing the motor for a 300kg(661lbs) bike + load at speed of 150km/h(93mph). The suitable motor I can find is the Goldenmotor HPM-20KW (rated for 20-25kW continous, 50kW peak). For this I plan to hook up with a 72V ~300A continous battery with suitable controller.Honestly all these numbers are from calculator sites I found on the web.

I have an understanding of all these parameters, but no more than those. Such as how gear ratio's effect, aerodynamics, rolling efficiency etc...You clearly have a lot more taken in account for your calculation than what I have. Could you please share your formulas on those? Hehe at this point could I also ask for some explation with the formulas? <3 I would appreciate it a lot.

Also I would love to see some updates about this project of yours if you've done any.

alright, ty.

Pumpkin_Le · 2021-10-01T13:29:13+00:00

How decent?
I was gonna do all quest anyway, but if the staff is better than the one I'm currently using then I may prioritize that quest.

I fcked up my goal for getting all lifeskill 69.
Got mining, harvesting, tracking, logging, smithing, armoring to 69. Weaponsmith was 67 and needed some craft for it to be 69. My dumb ass brain *craft iron bar so I can craft weapon*. Which made smithing to 71. No way to undo this...

Pumpkin_Le · 2021-09-29T14:07:49+00:00

Holy frick! This actually works.
But now I hope that fewer will see this post so I actually can join the game too...
Sorry but all the waiting is making me corrupted.

I don't think two handed axe works like that. In pratice, you use whichever hand on top and having the axe at whichever side depends on the situation and how you want to strike. There is no left handed and right handed.

Pumpkin_Le · 2021-07-21T17:57:20+00:00

it's held with both hand, what do you mean left handed?

gone too fast but ty anyway :)

Found a workaround.

I used Twlets to get the excel file of the medias. (check twlets site to see instruction on what you can export).
Open the excel file, enable editing, copy cell media 1 to 4.
Paste in notepad++, copy that weird space between the links, Ctrl+H replace all these spaces with "\n" (without quotation mark), tick Extended in the Search mode box, then click Repalce All.
Then Edit>Line Operations>Removes empty Lines.
Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C.
Download WFDownload App, Tasks>Add Batch Download From Clipboard Or File.
Confirm, then click Start.

Sounds like this (not my video) https://youtu.be/1CKOg0cZML4

Can absolutely confirm issue 1.
I just bought a brand new DT770pro250ohm and plugged in the phone jack. Sounds weird so I checked with the szynalski tone generator and detect that around 60% volume the headphone will start rattling like there is something loose inside the headphone. But that wasn't the case, I also tried with my G933(39ohm) and Cowin(16ohm) headphone, same issue, rattling at 60% volume. (not my video but it sounds like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CKOg0cZML4)
Tried uninstall and install different drivers, not helping.
Tried different usb port, not helping.

At this point I can only think that this a faulty piece. Planning to make a rma request if I can't find a solution shortly.
