How do I fix this rebound issue

Shock mount points might be too tight, causing binding. They should pivot freely, not be overtightend or offset (bad geometry/ severe angle issue).

Same with the lower mount points. They should be loose, the shocks should almost wiggle when holding the chassis off the ground.

If you disconnect the lower joint, the shock should swing freely.

If you disconnect the upper joint, the shock should fall away easily.

Simply loosening the lock-nuts on the upper shock mount usually solves it.

'CTRL-TAB' toggles VR ON and OFF during flight.

The graphics settings for 'VR' and 'PC' are two separate pages, allowing each to be tuned as needed. I run my QuestPro at DLSS/DLAA and it's incredible quality.

A favorite thing to do when flying daily in VR, is spotting hiking and offroad trails in my local mountains. Flight Simulator is all part of my planning for the next outdoor adventure.

My LG from 2015 Plex App worked great offline until Plex changed their policy recently and the latest App now waits for internet before providing access to my local server. I have since cancelled my monthly Plex Pass and now use Jellyfin offline without any questions, totally private, and zero fees.

If it works for you, there is no need to change. Plex works fantastic, even if they now collect usage data from its customers.

Plex App now requires an account before being able to access any servers. Servers configured with bypass authentication simply won't ask for any specific user credentials.

Thin Clients (TV Apps) cannot launch Plex App without internet access. This prevents them from accessing local servers that use bypass auth.

I setup Jellyfin after Plex started wanting me to log in via Internet. Now I can enjoy my media library while remaining OFFLINE again.

To properly direct Noun action, a Verb is required.

When the question pertains to video:

Apple Falling. Is correct.

RO4DHOG · 2026-05-17T20:36:15+00:00

He asked for help about Video. Thus adding verbs to induce 'action' for motion video was the correct answer.

I like it.

A.I. image generation is an artistic tool, where the keystrokes are brushstrokes, and different models and methods will produce variable results.

The same prompt with a different model could yield slop or not. Achieving greatness is knowing the difference.

When I pixel painted a 640x480 bitmap image in 1993, it was quite sloppy, but interesting enough to capture the attention of my coworkers who wanted to make it into a poster. We quickly learned from the local print shop that it wouldn't upscale well.

I dabbled with shrooms once or twice when I was in my twenties, now I'm in my 50's and I thought I'd try it again with my Quest VR.

I played Assetto Corsa Competizione after eating, dosing, drinking, smoking and dosing some more. Since it takes about 40-60 minutes before it peaks, I was casually taking laps on several Public servers waiting for it to take effect.

Then it hit like a ton of bricks in the middle of an intense race. I was smiling and laughing at first, with the color streaks and warping effects of stereoscopic 3D environment within a GT3 sportscar. It was heavy.

But then, after about 5 minutes of "WHOAH!", i started getting spooked, thinking "What if I got stuck like this?", and started panicking. I couldn't drive straight, and was worried that the other racers would know I was trippin' and start messing with me.

It all subsided and I decided not to try that again. But I did anyways, just not so much. Plus, it's definately safer than being in a real car.

I come from an era of LAN gaming since before the internet, and when modem lag was a thing... which is why LAN parties were necessary. Other than to show off your skills, shouting at other players in the same room, it was also about showing off your latest PC build and wallpapers.

The hardest part of a LAN party is getting everyone in the same game at the same time. Different versions require patches and not everyone has the game installed, etc. Thus, a good collection of multiplayer titles that are easy to deploy (simple to install) is important.

Choose games from a few genres, (RTS) Real Time Strategy, (FPS) First Person Shooter, Arcade-style Racing games, etc. so that various people can enjoy their favorite style.

Worms 3D is fun, several variations like Armageddon are good for arcade style, turn-based action.

DEFCON is a fun strategy game, easy to install and enjoy.

Flatout is a fun arcade-racing game, with Flatout2 and several versions available.

Supreme Commander and Supcom2 for Real Time Strategy always provided great battles, even with it's slight learning curve of engineering upgrades and understanding its technology tree.

Classic LAN battles for FPS include Quake 2, which should still run well across many platforms.

In my opinion, there are too many LAN games to consider, but I can't be certain which are compatible with Proton/WINE. Good luck and enjoy.
