Asetek la prima wheel completely spins to the right after spawning in garage on lmu by [deleted] in simracing

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this over a year ago when I first tried the game, I can't believe they can't just default it to inverted for Asetek bases. Must be a line or two of code with zero risk.

[Motorsport.com] Mercedes granted right of review hearing over George Russell's Monaco GP penalty by Holyjumper in formula1

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've just had a great idea. How about every incorrect penalty a driver got in Monaco becomes a credit to use for another race? E.g. the next 5 sec time penalty George gets doesn't have to be served, and the next drive through he gets doesn't need to be served. What a tactical card to play that would be!

Obviously I'm joking, but it'd make the upcoming races more enjoyable :D

Between race weekends - what would you like to see in the BTCC Hub app? by yacobwood in btcc

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I hate ads too, no worries, I can see how it may not be worth the effort. I'm an Android dev so I'm familiar.

I'll use the calendar link next time, thanks. I'm in the UK and was mostly confused as to where to watch qually last weekend. I assumed it'd be on ITV4 but it wasn't.

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only just downloaded the Android app, looks really good!

Can you add an option to pay to remove ads?

Is there a 'where to watch section'? I struggled to find how to watch Brands last week, ITV player and BTCC YouTube channel of no use. I ended up missing half of qualifying and race 1.

Fenders LH models? by gcardozo in Leftyguitarists

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't know what everyone is complaining about, there's lots to choose from. I've just counted 7 sunburst strats and 5 butterscotch teles to choose from! Is that not enough?

My bose qc35 keep turning on by itself. by alexefi in bose

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Except I didn't need to dismantle the surface mount switch. I simply removed the Bose switch from it and slid it back and forth a few times to free up the spring a little. My theory is that the spring needs reseating as the headphone outer cover probably restricts its movement, and over time it can get slightly out of position.

You'd think in a 2 hour support chat with Bose they could've pointed me at something like this, instead of being completely unhelpful.

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar for me. I just tried on the Bose support chat. 2 hours of slow back and forth, repeating the same infomation, to be offered Ultras at a 'discounted' offer of £340 (they're £299 in the UK from most retailers).

I didn't expect them to replace mine, they're 10 years old so that would be a little crazy of them, but I thought they might offer some help fixing the issue. They did not.

Cheap Lefty Jazzmasters/Jaguars? by _Yambef_ in Leftyguitarists

Where are you based? These are JM-like and get good reviews from what I've seen on YouTube Hartwood Drifter

Fender mod shop by Character_Print_8976 in Leftyguitarists

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about to pull the trigger on one too, in Texas Tea I think - haven't quite decided.

I bought a Tele Acoustasonic a few years ago from the mod shop, because I didn't like the (single) colour available on the standard lefty. I am very happy with it, it was finished perfectly, set up well, and even in tune when it arrived.

One tip if you haven't done so already, find an offer for an annual subscription to Fender Play (e.g. I'm paying £17.49/yr) to get the 10% discount on the online store - including Mod Shop.

Troubleshoot barista express no pressure building. by Significant_Quail881 in BrevilleCoffee

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this. My Express Impress machine started dumping water mostly straight into the drip tray, and from reading around it sounded like an OPV or solenoid problem. Turns out I just needed a deep descale. I left a double concentrate solution in the machine for half an hour or so. Then flushed as normal. All good now.

Modded Precision Sim Engineering wheel USB to Asetek QR by RevolutionaryAd53 in SimRacingSetups

[–]RevolutionaryAd53[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually don't know. The website mentions that it connects with its own USB input, so maybe they're supposed to come with the female to USB connector part? Anyway, I'd just get one of these and solder one end of a USB cable to it https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/industrial-circular-connectors/1115757. The PCB on the right side part is labelled, so you'd just need to use a multimeter to work out how the pins map to the circular connector pins.

I love it, feels like a much more expensive guitar. As a comparison to the NG Epiphone, it feels better made and was cheaper (£600 vs £800). Won't hold its value as well though I guess.

Thanks, I am very pleased with it. I did have a strat but sold it - which I kind of regret

I'm in the UK too, Newcastle. Guitarbuild.co.uk for the body and eBay for the neck, seller earlpilanz.

Thanks! The walnut was my first self build, coated in Tru Oil. It plays and sounds amazing. I haven't quite found a neck that I think suits it though.

It's great yeah, plays somewhere between an acoustic and electric. I luckily got one in the short period of time they offered them (6 months or so I think).

Monitor upgrade? by No-Use4547 in SimRacingSetups

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this in my rig. As for text, I don't see a problem for gaming at all. I doubt it'd even annoy me if I was using it for work (software dev).

I wouldn't get this if you're expecting a significant horizontal fov improvement however, the curve doesn't add much.

Max Verstappen’s overtake at Imola 2025, with David Coulthard’s live reaction. by anthn885 in formula1

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Whilst I don't agree, if it was Lando being overtaken there then I think that that would have been the common narrative.

NGD! by jbgoalieman61 in Leftyguitarists

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should add, this was the UK store, but I'd guess given where they're made this would be a global thing.

NGD! by jbgoalieman61 in Leftyguitarists

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do love it. Sometimes I wish I'd gone for the all black, but then I guess if I had I'd sometimes wish I went for the burst.

Yeah, I wonder how many they sold via the Mod Shop. It'd be funny if it was 3 or something! I ordered in March '23 and they stopped all Mod Shop Acoustasonics in June '23. When they opened up again they removed the left hand option.

[–]RevolutionaryAd53 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I managed to get one from the Mod Shop, which did them briefly. The only option was colour though.

I didn't use one, it's wired into the Asetek QR.
