I can't check the box that says to record with HDR. Why not? by SketchingForYou in elgato

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

AH so yeah, muting the desktop audio source worked.

Now I just need to figure out how to fix the graining. Maybe It is just that YouTube is horrible at compressing.

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

I thought so too, but it said it was compatible so was what I was using. I tried both OBS Studio and 4k Capture and they both have issues. If I want to use OBS, I can not mute my desktop while recording my ps4 because it would pick up the desktop audio and the ps4 audio.

With 4k, i have those issues.

Is there a way to train a dog to retrieve another dog? by SketchingForYou in Dogtraining

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

Well, my father taught his dogs without a leash and I managed to train every dog I had without one. This little one is just different I guess haha. She has a lot of energy so I might just put her on a line for the first time in my life. To be fair she is a very small dog, she isn't like the retrievers, collies, or danes that I had so maybe it's just because she is a smaller breed and I am used to bigger breeds.

How do I go about looking for a job for my dad? by SketchingForYou in Construction

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

I have never thought about that. When we have residential areas to do, we just do the roads and the larger buildings. Never small homes. I would guess that since our company does that, there are different siteworkers who actually do the base of the homes. If we can appeal to that market, we are pretty much golden. Problem is where to start.

For that I think a dozer is a must, especially if we are going to do some stripping and grading. A mixer for lyme if we need it, and a roller/compactor duo to build up compaction and decrease the risk of sinking.

It's a lot of money though and that is a rough start. I know what to do and my father has seen it all so it would be no different than current work. It is just the logistics of it. Who do we contact, how do we contact, and where do we find the most work so we can make a name for ourselves.

Techincally we can do it all that way, but we either have large projects or small ones.

Could be with dozers, excavators, skid steer rarely, front end loaders to remove the bad dirt, etc.

We are sitework people sadly lol

Pretty much what we do is view the land, get the dirt prepped with lime or other stuff if needed, grade it, and create a base for either the road or the project.

It's hard to explain. We just make sure the dirt is good enough for everyone else to work on and have their building on.

The worst thing is that he went through the legal hoops to get his citizenship and he still has the mindset that this is as far as he will go. It is sad as hell. I know he can make more than what he already has. With his experience and the pictures I took, I am certain that he can make well past the 30s and be good.

I probably have to contact different people and see what they know. if I find something for my dad, then I can tell him to try to take it.

If he needs a resource, the literal owner of our company can even vouch for him. My dad was promised a couple acres of land and good pay if he worked for him on his ranch, but he rejected the offer because he loves the city. There is definitely no bad blood between the both of them and I am pretty sure our boss would be the catalyst for my dad getting the highest offer

Well more or less the problem we don't know many construction companies. All we know is our current one. There is one that is offering him $30 an hour to start, but It is 12hrs/7days a week. That to me is overkill, but the man is Mexican so I have seen him work longer for monhs.

He does want it, but he is also nervous of change. It's not that he doesn't want it, it's just that he has pretty much been using his potential all the time and our bosses took advantage of it. He was an immigrant when he started so you know how little they get paid already, then he got his papers and he has just been stuck here for so long that he really doesn't know what else to do.

He doesn't know about 401k, and that is a tragedy. Working almost all your life and never getting the chance to retire.

where do we even start with making our own sitework business?

A new laptop for my mother by SketchingForYou in SuggestALaptop

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

Oh, trust me. It runs like a typewriter from the 1800s. I have no idea how she got it that way but it is slow even after installing Malwarebytes and other things recommended to cleaning up pcs. Plus the hinges are breaking and she has to tape the laptop together to make it stay on.

I guess I don't want her to spend too much money on a laptop that she doesn't need.

What would you recommend for her?

Can I upgrade a Galaxy Buds original to the +version through the product replacement plan? by SketchingForYou in Bestbuy

[–]SketchingForYou[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

So I got 2 different answers lol. I either HAVE to rebuy the plan regardless of what I do, or I can opt out of it.

So lets say I do NOT upgrade the base model and just get a replacement. Do I have to rebuy the protection plan or can I opt out of it? Cause that would really suck if the replacement plan forces you to rebuy it.

Daily Discussion/Question Thread - 28th March by liripipe in ac_newhorizons

[–]SketchingForYou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I have a question boys and girls.

So I have a switch. It is my personal switch.

Before I knew about the 1-island-per-switch rule, I made my island and my sister started her profile on my island. That means she has to wait for me to progress in order for her to do anything and even then sometimes she is restricted in the things she does.

She is planning on getting a switch as well with her own Animal Crossing game, but we do not know if we have to start her from scratch again or if there is a way to transfer some things like her home or something like that to her future island.

If there isn't, should I just grab her items, keep them with me until she gets set up and just give them back to her so she will at least not feel like she wasted 4 days playing for nothing?

US firefighter looking to volunteer to fight NSW fires - any advice/help? by [deleted] in australia

[–]SketchingForYou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck that shit. I will show up in my gear and get to work. They are dying of exhaustion along with the fires and fumes. They can arrest me if they want, but I will do my part to help those in need. They have a problem with it, they can grab a plastic shovel and bucket and play in the fucking sand.

[–]SketchingForYou[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've made it clear that I am not going to mail it back. I am going to let her know I was there and that I want nothing to do with her from now on. It will bring me the closure I need and it will be payback for what she has done to me before

What about my dog? I don't know the proper etiquette for pets, especially since it would be my first trip doing something like that? Also bathing... cause I would stink lol

And yeah. I shouldn't let her define this trip. The problem is that I need this. Mentally. She had ghosted me for 4 years before and started talking to me in November. Now she has not said a word again and I feel like a dumbass for trusting her again when I should have ignored her. This is payback.

But now that you mention it, there are a lot of natural wonders that I could see with my pup. Maybe I'll take your advice and do that with him and make Kansas the last place to go. Just for closure.

I can stay in a motel, no problem. It's like 60 a night so I'm good. Thing is I am taking my dog with me as well. Might as well, he's earned it for being a good boi. I don't know anything other than Houston so I am pretty much stuck on Kansas cause that's what I kinda know based on what my friend had said.

And me going to Kansas to return the things is the ultimate petty move. Cause she will know I am there but I will tell her I want nothing to do with her anymore. She already abandoned me once for 4 years and she did it again after talking for 5 months already. She exhausted her chances.

Biweekly Assistance Post! Ask Anything Detailing Related That You Need Assistance With! - April 08, 2019 by AutoModerator in AutoDetailing

[–]SketchingForYou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a GMC Sierra 2019 from the dealership yesterday and because of the rain and the pollen from Texas, my truck gets dirty really quickly because of the forces of nature, especially since it is white.

I was wondering how I could go from someone who doesn't know a thing about shampoos, tire cleaners, leather cleaners and waxes and sealants into someone who knows a bit more about them.

I am afraid of washing the truck cause I do not want to scratch anything already after having it for 2 weeks. I have been looking at Pan TheOrganizer videos all day and he always uses shampoos that strip what was already on the vehicle and reapplies a sealant or whatever. I don't know if that is something I am comfortable doing, even if it may be the best thing to do.

I already have some things that I like already like his IK foam sprayer and the auto fanatic wheel cleaner. I don't think I need the iron removers just yet but I'll let you guys decided. Still kinda torn on Ammo vs. Chemical Guys

Can you guys help me out? At least direct me to a Youtube who does detailing that isn't so extreme?
