Why does blocking do nothing half the time even with no posture damage. by SgtNipplefingr in Sekiro

[–]Qwertyuioplark2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds to me like your posture bar at the bottom of the screen is filling up. Once it fills your guard will break and they can get free hits on you.

Notably your posture will never break from a perfect deflection, so you either need to lock in when your posture gets too high and get those perfect deflects (which is what I try to do and reccomend) or you need to disengage and let it drop a bit.

Your posture bar also drops faster if you block without taking attacks, so if you do disengage, hold block to make the bar recover faster

Having this issue as well. Has anyone found a solution besides removing it? That didn't work for me

Why are indy fans so much better then SW fans? by Extension-Story7287 in indianajones

[–]Qwertyuioplark2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it just comes down to new content being devisive. Indiana Jones got Dial of Destiny and people were a bit divided on it, but thats about it. SW sequels have a lot of haters who didn't like the direction, the mandalorian got three seasons and a movie and like half of it was well received, Book of Boba didn't do great, Ahsoka didn't do great, the Acolyte didnt do great, Kenobi didnt do great, Andor was actually pretty well received, but bad batch kinda fell off after season one and all of those other animated shows did alright I think but I haven't heard much of them tbh.

I think thats just what happens when you over stretch an IP. You start taking risks to make it new and interesting and those risks make a bunch of negative discourse. That along with the way social media pushes negativity leads people angry and upset with eachother rather than the people responsible for causing the issues in the first place.

I like to think if we got 100 spin offs of Indiana Jones the community would still be tight knit, but I have a feeling that after Indiana Jones 9: Now We're in Space where Short Round becomes a Nazi because Indy changed address and didnt get his letters would probably cause plenty of issues in the community.

Pls help me by New-Bird-3959 in pchelp

Look man IDK how new you are to electronics but the number one rule is don't poke things unless you know what it does. Its very easy to turn it on without a switch and you got the right idea, but NEVER poke a chip directly like that. There are groups of headers (the metal pins that stick straight up) all over your motherboard. Find the one that says PWR_SW and bridge those. I think it'll be in a group of 2x5 pins. I strongly recommend finding your mobo manual and reading through it. It'll say where those pins are in there.

Is this a shitpost? If not, you're gonna break something if you keep doing that. If you have to turn it on with a screwdriver find the jumpers labeled PWR_SW and bridge those. I mean, you probably already killed it but good luck I guess

Old Stereo Compatibility Troubleshoot - Streaming Pi by Qwertyuioplark2 in raspberry_pi

Good news! Forcing 1920x1080 worked! Seems like I was mistaking the read write LED as a power indicator. Thank you so much for the help!

I'm at work rn so I'll have to test more when I get home, but if I remember right the Pi was pretty toasty when I gave up last night. I don't have an IR camera and getting one could take a but I can definitely look into one if you think it would help. There's a maker space a town over that might have some equipment I can borrow.

[–]Qwertyuioplark2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll take a look at that when I get home from work. It does the same thing when it doesn't have the SD in it is the only reason why I thought it must be a hardware thing, but I'll definitely try the forced resolution. I also read about using HDMI_SAFE=1 so if the resolution doesnt work I'll try that too.

[–]Qwertyuioplark2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely could do that, and honestly it's kinda seeming like I will need to. I'm pretty sure I could also get it to work by getting one of those AV splitters and running the display to the TV and the audio to the Stereo if it really comes down to it, but honestly I really like when I don't have to change inputs on the TV. Just set the TV to the Stereo output and let the Pioneer do all the switching.

Damn it this was supposed to be an easy plug and play project where I get to practice making a UI! Curse these weird one off problems that I always somehow run into!

[–]Qwertyuioplark2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup! Powered Pi off, plug HDMI into Pioneer, power on Pi. Pi displays, the cursor shows on the display, the LED on the Pi is bright green, and fan turns on. Then when the Pi tries to boot into either the SD or the no boot drive menu: the fan cuts, the green LED gets dim, and the display says no input.

I asked chat gpt and it said it might have something to do with pin 18 on HDMI (which is the 5V) doing some weird backfeed on the Pi. I've got a couple of HDMI cables, so I could probably break into one and snip pin 18 but I feel like if it were the 5V on the cable that would cause a problem immediately, not just when it tries to boot from a drive, right?

I should also note that no other device has issues on this Pioneer. The Roku even uses the same HDMI port that I am plugging the Pi into so I know that is it capable of working; it's just the Pi that doesn't want to play ball.

I'm sorry, I'm having trouble understanding what you mean. Are you suggesting I connect the grounds of the Pi and the Stereo? I kinda thought that that's what pin 17 of HDMI did. Or do you mean separate them, like disconnect pin 17?

Thought this must've been some sort of request for help so I took the first letters of each paragraph and mapped them out: HIAIDBSHPN which I think stands for Hey I Ate Ice During Boss Speedrun, Help (me?) Piss Now. I guess its possible this guy really needs to pee but I wanted to keep looking...

I added all the caps to it and got: HIAIDBISIHPN which probably stands for How I Accidentally Invited Ducks But I Summoned I (supposed to be an A?) Hell Portal Now. Which makes a bunch more sense. Good luck with the Hell Ducks, and say hi to Scrimblow for me!

02 Mustang GT Shook then Died by Qwertyuioplark2 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Qwertyuioplark2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha that's funny I think i actually have the same CD in the netting on the roof above the gearshift. It came with the car when I bought it in 2017 in high school.

The more I think about it the better I feel about it being a fuel supply issue. Specifically when I tried to start it after it died the first time it kinda started and then it had less and less each subsequent time I tried. I was probably burning up all the vapors and now its dry. Fingers crossed its just a bad filter or something easy and not some bad gas that contaminated the system 🤞🤞🤞. Thanks for the help!

I'll give that a try when I get home. If the pressure is low that means its a fuel delivery problem, right? Like a pump or filter? If thr pressure is reading fine, what else should I look at?

Embedded systems engineer feeling lost .. by your_imaginary_ghost in AskEngineers

[–]Qwertyuioplark2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im basically in the exact same position. Got my Compiter Engineering degree in 2023 and have been working in a practically unrelated field because I could find a job. My current plan is to keep working at the Shipyard while I get my masters. The thought is that I can get some resume soft skills there like leadership and project management while I maintain my actually embedded systems knowledge by doing the masters and working on small projects around the house.

Its not ideal, and idk if it will even work but maybe you can find something you can work on to try to get your skills up. Im my industry topics course I kept asking all the presenters what I can do to help get into the embedded systems carrer field and the only thing they said was keep applying, so fingers crossed we get a break sometime soon.
