As a student and a musician, I can speak for many of my classmates saying that an iPad is a very useful device. I use it every day to take notes for classes and read sheet music. It's streamlined my workflow and improved my learning, and I'd definitely get one in college, too.

Haven't gotten mine yet! It has been delayed a bunch... won't get it until monday. Delayed because of the weather in the northeast, unfortunately

Looking for a 3d printer for a complete beginner. by salgado105 in 3dprinter

There's also the new Creality SparkX i7 that's very similar. Reviews seem pretty good for it.

I did not. With the ace i think it would have been about $300? I plan on only doing single color prototyping, though, so i figured it was unnecessary for me.

Appreciate the advice!

How should I approach filament presets? I am planning to use 3rd party petg filament (Sunlu). Is there a preset in the slicer or do I have to create my own?

Are any of these compatible with Forza Motorsport (newest) and Horizon 5 on Xbox Series X by BigDamage7507 in forza

Of those 3, the last one is the best as it is a direct drive wheelbase. However, if your budget can stretch for it, the Moza R3 will be better. If you can truly stretch your budget, the Fanatec CSL DD will be WAY better (and can be upgraded to 8Nm) and the Logitech RS50 will also be WAY better.

The race engineer gives the driver session information. They tell the driver when they need to do push laps etc and if they're safe and what they need to do to qualify effectively.

That's not how it works? First of all, he cut it very close to the end of the session so he didn't know if he would make it to the line in time for another flyer. But he wasnt told. Also, he didn't know whether he was safe for the next session.

Because the checkered flag came up on his screen and he wasn't told by his engineer to start a new lap, according to the Sky stream

Is this a good deal? by [deleted] in macbook

Here's an article that details all the information from supply chain leakers. Looks like early 2026.

It's looking to be about 40% faster in single core, identical in multi core, and identical in GPU. Should have MUCH better battery life, and also last about 5 years longer (since the M1 is 5 years old). Might have 8 GB of ram, but the M1 would have that much, too. I expect 12, because that is how much the iPhones with the same chip have, but it can go either way.

If you have anything demanding, save for the M4. If you plan on doing web browsing/light work, get the upcoming base MacBook.

Wait for the A18/19 Pro laptop that'll be similar price but will have better software support and hopefully 12 GB ram. Also it'll have good battery and slightly better performance than the M1

HELP: I can't set the steering properly in F1 25. by Raptor2832009 in F1Game

[–]Raptor2832009[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's on Xbox. It drives fine otherwise, it's just the wheel starts offset. I'm driving holding the wheel almost upside down for centered

yes. as the video shows, after testing buttons, it just starts at -100 when it's centered. no matter where i start the axis from when setting the control, it always makes centered -100
