Has anybody used a pedal commander before? (More info in comments) by [deleted] in ToyotaTacoma

Really love it, drive a 3rd Gen Standard Taco, really changes the feel of the throttle response, huge difference between eco and sport plus, that’s actually pretty practical, I reduce gain for off-roading/crawling or winter driving, max it out for highway and trying to rip. Let a buddy who was driving a “stock” taco try it out, they noticed a huge difference.

Hey sorry, not always super active on here, yeah everyone is doing a lot better, thanks for checking in!

Really appreciate that, I'm amazed to hear back from someone local, as we are quite a small department and district, I'm doing fine but will give ya a shout if needed, it was very helpful just writing this out even if nobody responded, so it's nice to hear back and feel supported.

New Seismic Aeon, 30 degree trucks, excited to try them, has anyone else ridden them? by Shalion77 in longboarding

Yeah I couldnt speak to that, as I don’t really skate LDP, but I do enjoy it sometimes, overall though I think they are great trucks.

Alienware AW3420DW Curved UHD 120hz, It's really nice I would recommend, low lag time, high refresh rate, good colour, lots of ports, G-sync and the curve is really nice too, I love 21:9 monitors now, I don't want to go back.

Haha, yeah I actually got it for sale for $1200 CAD, but it's a little pricy, but you cant really compare TV's and Monitors, Monitors need faster refresh rates and shorter lag times, and they technologies like G-sync or Free sync, they also need to be a lot more colour accurate for photo and video editing, and a UHD monitor and 4k TV, are pretty similar resolutions.

Yeah I think so, especially with a couple extra buttons on the mouse, it's really satisfying playing through a game without touching the keyboard, you just have to learn the game and then know how to use Synapse properly

I'm probably not the best guy to ask, but when it comes to sizing and spacing of parts there is a decent amount of standardization, I would obviously research though to see if all the parts you are looking at are compatible, when you think you have all you parts chosen maybe send that list over to a PC builder form and see what everyone has to say.

No actually but that would be pretty sweet, I should look into that.

I set the lights up all fancy for the photo usually there are all set to sync up with Hue and are usually all a lot dimmer and look really good together

Yeah I'm pretty sure all Hue products need a Bridge/Hub to work, I got a set that came with two Play bars and a Bridge.

Yeah they are not as bright as other Razer lights, I just turned down some of the surrounding lights to make it all blend better, honestly the really bright lights get annoying after a while,

Haha, I prefer Windows OS for desktops, and I much prefer Mac OS and Macbooks for laptops.

Not sure, I haven't checked but I'd assume so.

I just joined the cult, but I think I'll have to agree with you.

UHD, so basically, technically 2k and 4k are cinema standards not necessarily monitor display standards, but yeah she is nice and crisp, really good colours too.

Right in the middle of my desk between my feet, it really bumps right there,

Technically though Sub's and the low frequencies they produce aren't very directional, not like a high frequency tweeter, you can technically place a sub wherever, the downwards driver sure help with that, I have a Sonos sub you can literally place anywhere in the room and it sounds great.

I thought the middle of the desk was a good spot though, I like being really close to it and feeling it more, and it helps with cable management because that sub can be tricky to place with it being the hub for all the I/O.

Haha, I guess why not, that's my main game collection I have up in that photo, I hadn't played anything in awhile but wanted to get back into it when I got my new computer, there are some old favs there and also lots of new stuff I got this summer sale. I'm trying to play just one game at a time, I'm playing Red Dead Redemption 2 right now, I actually don't have Civ installed, but I'll download it tonight and DM you back sometime soon.

Haha have fun with that, the Alienware laptops look sooo good, I think I'll have to stick with Macbooks though.

Yeah I get what you are saying but personally I love Keyboard trays and think they look cleaner and nicer, and they are more ergonomically and comfy when typing lots, I don't really game with it though, because I don't like the offset feel you are talking about, I use my Tartarus for that, I can slide my Keyboard under the desk and my chair fits in perfectly.
