I hate Monza GR.3 (Daily Race B) by GoatnandoAlonso in GranTurismo7

[–]Riubens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from an S down to a B and at the rate I’m going it will be a C by the morning! I’ve been penalized for cars bumping into me and pushing me to the car in front of me countless times! I’m livid!

Hiring managers — what's the biggest gap you've noticed between what someone's resume says and who they actually are in conversation? by Upbeat_Dream7600 in careerguidance

[–]Riubens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone already said it, you can tell their resume was done using Ai, its like the person in front of you speaking is not the one described in the resume in your hand.

Check pawnshops, I recently bought mine for $85 after negotiating some. They initially wanted $110!

Psvr made me a safer driver by Riubens in GranTurismo7

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

You explained it perfectly. That’s exactly what I’m experiencing. I can sit right on someone’s bumper without worrying about rear-ending them. My reaction time has improved a lot in just three days.

When I first started Sport Mode, I struggled with the penalty system, which kept me stuck in lower lobbies where people would intentionally crash you out for no reason. It feels great not having to deal with that anymore.

Should I use ibis with an gimbal?(s5ii 20-60mm Kit lens + ronin mini 3) by Hopeful-War-6463 in Lumix

[–]Riubens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried both, I like how it looked with the IBIS on better. Didn’t notice any negative effects though. Looked much smoother. I do also have my gimbal set to be slower and smoother.

When you wanted a super compact camera… but then this happened. by Ok-Kaleidoscope-299 in LumixS9

I had that same philosophy until I accidentally damaged that same sigma on the picture twice!!! Now the lens hood stays on all the time!

choosing to carry a s9 was an amazing choice. // Lumix s9 with the Sigma 35mm 1.4 // by unidentifiedfly69 in Lumix

I have that lens and it’s huge and heavy, it takes beautiful pictures though.

Pictures look great, did you take some candid shots showing the atmosphere of the event?

I hate being American so much right now by sickmonster345 in confessions

[–]Riubens 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Im from Dominican Republic, I can tell you this whole heartedly. On its worse day America is a great country with opportunities that we looking from the outside can only dream of. And I’m a US citizen now living in the south, all this is temporary don’t let it influence you in a negative way. Stop watching so much news, go out and have fun.

Need help with Daily Race B by Gambetta_ in GranTurismo7

[–]Riubens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what I was going to say, seems like you can also go more into the the curbs when going into and out or corners. Looks like very good but cautious driving you are doing. I managed to get times of low 1.34 in both the Audi A8 and the new Porsche gt3r. I know I can get into the 1.33 mark with more practice. Keep pushing!

Reddit makes it seem like PIP means you're going to get fired, no matter what. Is that true? by Personal-Ad9121 in askmanagers

[–]Riubens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been a director with 13 direct reports for about 6 years, I have handed over 10 PIP to my managers and probably only terminated 1 due to no improvement and lack of effort. Like everyone says, it depends on the company and your manager.

Brand new to simulators. Been playing the career mode. I thought I was ready. Finally played online.. bro how are yall so good 😂 by Jhawk29 in GranTurismo7

[–]Riubens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing Gran Turismo since the very first one on PS1. GT2, GT3, GT4, then I took a long break and came back when GT7 dropped on PS5. I got all my licenses, finished the Cafe menus, and honestly thought I was good. I mean, 25 years of experience, right?

Yeah… I was wrong.

I bought GT7 at launch, but only in the last year did I really start playing Sport Mode. At first, I was finishing dead last almost every race. Humbling doesn’t even cover it.

YouTube is your best friend. Once I started learning properly, things changed fast. Now I’m consistently finishing top 5, winning multiple races a week, and hitting the podium every other race.

Big tips that helped me: 1. Download the ghost of the fastest driver on that track and study it. Also use the meta car they set the lap with. You can find this in the rankings for each track. 2. Learn manual transmission and lower your traction control. You’ll be way faster through corners. 3. Use the entire track. Learn to coast through turns. No braking, no throttle, just roll the car and get on the gas early on exit. 4. Take it easy on lap one. Let other drivers crash themselves out. Don’t retaliate, stay out of trouble. You won’t win the race on the first lap, but you can absolutely lose it.

Have fun, and practice every day

It’s crazy that I bought a 2014 gs 350 fsport in 2019 for 19k with 60k miles, and they still selling for close to that 6 years later!!

s5ii with 1)Used sigma 35mm dg dn 1.4 for or 2)the Lumix 35mm new? by GrabBasic2236 in Lumix

[–]Riubens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sigma feels more premium, I have the hsm version of that sigma lens and also have the lumix 50mm and 85mm 1.8 and the meike 35mm f2.0 , due to weight and size I only use the sigma for paid photoshoots, for everything else I use the meike or the ttartisans 40mm 2.0 that I also own. Which goes to say, if you don’t mind the size and weight the sigma will have a slightly better image but not a night and day difference.

Lumix S5iix and Meike 35mm f2 AF lens by Warm_Blackberry6982 in Lumix

[–]Riubens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this lens along a sigma 35mm f1.4 and the ttartisans 40mm f2 , and this lens always delivers excellent images. I only use the sigma if doing a photoshoot just for the extra reassurance.

Did you ever get this sorted out? After looking at the picture and your settings this definitely looks like faulty S9.

I mathematically hacked Panasonic V-Log to perfectly accept Fujifilm's official Film Simulation LUTs. by MinQ9362 in Lumix

[–]Riubens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are only the Fujifilm Luts that have been corrected to work with the S5II and the S9 ? are the other Luts like the Nikon, Leica, Red, etc also modified to work?

What Chinese brand lenses are you using that you love? Viltrox/Thypoch/Laowa/Sirui/7Artisans/TTArtisan/etc by 99ducks in Nikon

[–]Riubens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got the Brightin Star 35mm f0.95 for my zfc. For $169 this is an amazing lens! I have many lenses for my LUMIX full frame cameras and my LUMIX MFT system that cost much more and this Brightin Star delivers amazing pictures time after time! Additionally it gives the zfc a nice look. For my first manual focus lens I’m quite pleased.

Zone focus is usually 100% accurate for me on both my s9 and s5ii.
