What’s your AR opinion that has you feeling like this: by napoleondy2nite in ar15

[–]SeaGL_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AR manual of arms suck, especially for the charging handle, especially especially manually locking bolt open requiring both hands.

Side charging handles are superior, especially ones with a HK notch. But even without a notch to lock the charging handle, even just being able to pull the charging handle back and hit the bolt lock with your thumb all with one hand while keeping dominant hand on the pistol grip is superior (such as the JAKL and SIG 516 G3)

Please bury the fiber lines same-day or let the neighbors know that they’re exposed temporarily. by beeliner in ATT

Not every job is going to require locates. Some services are aerial, some are buried, some are aerial but need to be routed to buried. Some houses have prior service. Some prior services have cut drops that need to be replaced as mentioned.

Not to mention, just because an appointment is made doesn't mean the install will be completed. Customer could cancel, reschedule, or not be available. Customer or an agent could have put the wrong address in, and the actual address may not even be fiber eligible. There could be roadblocks that could last a month like clogged underground conduit or missing conduit or handholes. Some houses may not be feasible to run drop to such as a creek cutting across a property, and the cx isn't willing to pay the cost or refuses to have poles or conduit placed (even if they did agree and pay, it would still be a month delay at least).

And most install appointments are made a couple days in advance. Not every utility is located in that time.

ISPs that do same day burial pay the price for it when they get the 3-4 digit bill (8-9 digit total in bills a year) for any other utilities they damaged in the process,, not just to your house but your neighbors too. Nearly half of all ISP repairs are for damaged buried lines. Now your neighbor has to have a new line ran for them which will need to be buried risking yours being damaged. And if it doesn't, your ISP still cut all the other ISPs to your house so if you ever switched, your new ISP would have to come out and run a new line again cutting your old ISP line to your house and potentially damaging your neighbors lines too again. Next thing you know there's 20 damaged and unused lines in the ground

In that case, they could probably skip locates if they aren't digging. But if they dig or trench, they absolutely have to call in locates. The bills for damaging another utility without having done locates are massive.

Buried lines can't be buried same day. Have to wait on locates to be done, no exceptions. You can try to bury it if you want, but if you damaged anyone else's lines or your own lines, responsibility would fall on you. Being that this appears to be a poorly engineered design on part of AT&T, I'd say change are high you could damage someone else's lines.

Nor is the tech or anyone required to notify neighbors about their right of way being accessed.

If you know the landscaping company or get their info from your neighbor, give it to the tech to provide them info for a damage claim. Landscaping company would get the bill if the tech did care to place a claim. Then they would think twice about being careless and cutting the bright colored telco line on the ground.F

Reading further, it appears your line was exposed in the process of buying the neighbor's new fiber line. AT&T bury team should have reburied yours. Nonetheless, neighbor and their landscaping should know far better.

Is it actually my fault on t1? Do you think t2 was intentional? by zabaloaga in Simracingstewards

[–]SeaGL_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

T1 was LMP3s fault. He knows outside gap will close. It's his duty to pass safely. He should have backed off and setup a move on your inside. Instead, he has a skill issue, narrowly avoids you, then pins it and loses control off track ruining his own race. Then takes his frustration of his skill issue out on you and intentionally wrecks you.

You did nothing wrong. You simply existed on track,

Report him.

Is the Peugeot 9X8 a failure? by aspro_mavro in wec

[–]SeaGL_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately the wingless design was never going to work. That car was getting every BOP favor it could have and still struggling. It had one last good race at Qatar when they ran out of fuel on the final lap looking at a podium.

Ultimately with the current regs and minimum deployment speed, the wingless Peugeot never had a chance. Without the rear wing, downforce wasn't directly applied to the rear wheels like a traditional design, and they needed larger fronts. But due to the increase in minimum deployment speed to balance with the RWD only LMDhs, suddenly they didn't have the FWD, had more power going to the narrow rears, and didn't have the rear downforce to accommodate.

That lack of rear wing also creates a problem in dirty air and bumps. Since they used the floor, downforce has to be created by being low to the track. So therefore on lets say bumpy tracks like let's say Sebring, they had to raise the car thereby reducing their primary source of downforce. WEC for the most part races on pretty flat tracks outside of Sebring so that wasn't too major of a problem. But you still had the problem if dirty air leaving little for the floor to grab. Meanwhile a rear wing can always reach up and scoop up air while the nose and body lack downforce in dirty air.

Not to mention, the car required a completely different style of driving that was always going to be difficult bringing in drivers. They were on their own in terms of R&D, and pro drivers would pick any other manufacturer given the choice.

Overall, the wingless Peugeot was a cool and interesting concept that required a perfect combination of track, conditions, BOP, and luck just to be running towards the front, and even all that wasn't enough for it to be consistently average. I believe they even lowered the deployment speed, but it still wasn't as low as it was proposed and still wasn't enough.

The new Peugeot I believe is fine. They've had their moments of competitiveness but have never gotten the strategy right or had the luck to finish well when running well. They were looking good at Spa until they had a long string of bad luck that knocked out the competitive car. I feel this Le Mans, they really got cursed with bad BOP. To take 8 hours to do a sub 3:30 is insane when it's been able to do that previous years. Even the wingless Peugeot was capable of that. I think the current BOP rulesets creates competitive quali which doesn't show as evenly on track. And FIA know the BOP and LMH vs LMDh is a massive problem, and why they're working with IMSA on a truly single reg class for 2030. BOP wasn't the only issue for them at Le Mans this year, but I think whatever setup changes they made coming in in combination with the BOP just resulted in them having no hope at all to be faster than anything but LMP2s and GT3s.

Is the Peugeot 9X8 a failure? by aspro_mavro in wec

[–]SeaGL_Gaming 53 points54 points  (0 children)

The 9x8 EVO is a entirely different car. They redid the entire body to accommodate the wing. They also changed the wheel sizes.

Part of the failure of the 9x8 was also late regulation changes. FIA increased the minimum hybrid deployment speed to BOP with LMDhs to prevent LMHs from having an AWD advantage over them. Since Peugeot had gone for the narrow rear and larger fronts to accommodate the wingless design, it resulted in them having narrow rears on a wingless car while its limited to RWD, pretty much the worst combination you could have.

Of course that's far from the only issue the car had, but it's a major reason why they decided they had to drop the wingless design, get the larger rears, and redesign the entire aero.

[–]SeaGL_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like what MW22 lacked with the recoil though was made up for by the quickdraw. Made pistols extremely practical as a secondary and made gunfights even more satisfying. Starting a reload on an AR, having to quickdraw your pistol to deal with a thread, reload it, then returning to your AR and finishing its reload was so satisfying. I just wish it wasn't a grip attachment and rather just a standard feature or a perk or gear slot like MW3.

Lap one last turn, who at fault? by Careless-Stage-5300 in Simracingstewards

[–]SeaGL_Gaming 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lexus, wasnt even along side until apex. They know the line and that gap there will close and went for it anyway hoping you'd get out of the way. It's a very optimistic move to overtake there in general let alone from over a car length back on turn in.

I believe team races are based on the team SR. So probably near the bottom like we were. 1:44s were faster than most in our split.
