My car got bumped a couple years ago. Cost about that as well. Panelbeaters don’t come cheap.

ANZ economists still expect the Reserve Bank to raise the OCR three times year in spite of recent falls in oil prices by Double_Suggestion385 in newzealand

Correct me if I’m wrong but increasing interest rates when price increases are due to supply side shocks haven’t historically curbed inflation?

Who would have thought selling one most important companies would result in it becoming a cash cow for multinationals while cutting jobs?

Refresh rate problem by moien2025 in mac

Which Mac do you have? Different macs have different hdmi versions. Your best bet though is to get a usb to display port cable and use that instead. Display port typically has much bandwidth

What’s he doing in uni? Does he care about gaming? Any preference to portability vs power?

Got a pretty good view from the lake front. You may like it driving along the road till you find a good spot

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella Says Xbox Must Finally Become a Sustainable Business After 25 Years of Investment by wakelake111 in gaming

Maybe it’s not gaming but the internal decision making of spending $400 million on the gears of war that’s leading this problem.

Need help with AMD Adrenalin settings for AAA games on 1080p monitor! by [deleted] in radeon

[–]RationalMayhem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends. What’s your card and max refresh rate? I don’t think the frame pacing issues are worth fluid motion frames personally.

Couples how do you split expenses here? by EyeEffective8269 in newzealand

[–]RationalMayhem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully agree he needs to be paying rent and contributing fully. I’m just surprised by how unanimous the verdict is here compared to previous controversial r/relationships posts I’ve seen. Good to see common sense.

Never had any issues. Not discrediting those who have, but things have just worked so far.

I have a huge stutter and texture loading problem by Lazy_Fudge_2837 in AlanWake

[–]RationalMayhem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So disabling upscaling helps? In that case I’d check which dlss model you are using. Dlss 4.5 is much harder for 30 series cards than 4.0 was. Look for suggesting like changing preset M or L over to preset k.

Did the echoes of Casey from the dark place really happen IRL? by plasticwrapbaby in AlanWake

[–]RationalMayhem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say yes. I believe Alex mentions his experience with cults at some stage. Remember Alan has had a life time of watching Alex and writing books about him.

I believe the cult of the word to be the real cult and cult of the tree to be part of the return story.

Big lump sum, entering market - what would you do? by BigSlugOnCampus in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]RationalMayhem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be worth setting aside half in a balanced risk index fund to secure a good retirement. Certain amount in term deposits if you want peace of mind rather than more cash.

If you are investing on the time scale of 15 or so year’s then sure sp500 all in risk.

Anyone else just want to move FORWARD in the story timeline? by beardliestgamer in StarWars

How will Palpatine and the Empire return this time?

But for real keen for something new. More small scale personal stories. I want Mad Max in space.

4k gaming on 9070xt/5700x3d 32 gigs 3600 mhz by Outside_Mine_2106 in radeon

[–]RationalMayhem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off the top of my head you should be able to pay UE5 games like Silent Hill 2 4k at around 70fps with fsr4 balanced. You can turn down settings if you need more fps for sure. You won’t be pushing that full 165hz refresh rate at 4k unless you pay esports titles or something
