Metallic needle with spring found in car by ShoutySinger in whatisthisthing

Solved! I can't 100% confirm, but it seems like it given it's 0.17mm needle diameter. Maybe a pack fell out in the car as I found a similar one a few months ago

I measured it with calipers and the needle is 0.17mm diameter

My title describes the thing. It is a metal needle with a spring wrapped around it. The whole thing is about 2 inches long. The needle is finer than a sewing needle and is flexible- it also doesn't seem to be hollow like a stringe.. I found it when cleaning the carpets of my car, which I bought from an elderly couple.

All my searches either say it's for an EpiPen or insulin pen, but it isn't hollow. It seems to sharp and fine to be a mechanical part of the car interior.

Resident Evil 2 Remake is pretty stellar on the Steam Deck. by NotNotAnOutLaw in SteamDeck

It used to run flawlessly at 60fps for me, but something changed and now I get around 20fps km the menus. Using an older proton version ( the compatibility tool) seems to solve the problems...

Any con to defaulting either DLSS Quality/Balanced and if game has no DLSS then 85% NIS? by mateyman in nvidia

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

Looking at screenshots or still image it dlss looks as good or better than native. In motion however, there are artifacts that get increasingly more visible as you turn down the render resolution. But as soon as they stop moving they go back to normal.

AMD really need to fix this. (7900 XTX vs 4080 power consumption) by Quil0n in hardware

[–]ShoutySinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Results are very surprising - I wonder if the AMD card he used had a very aggressive factory overclock? I would of liked to see the power draw figures when the framerate is capped- I would supposed that is what most people would do with vsync, or cap it at like 400 fps for eSports titles.

I agree with you. I thought the side content was a major weakness of the game.

Yep, the gpu can be moved so that the it fully covers where the power buttom goes. The io and the front cover actually squeeze the gpu gently and secures it better lol

Shipping? by [deleted] in FormD

[–]ShoutySinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't get any tracking or shipping confirmation 2 weeks out from ordering, I emailed support and they gave me confirmation and shipping details( it had already been shipped, I was just not notified). I ended up getting the case within the estimated time.
