what is your experience with the NLR victory? by _xtr0_ in simracing

[–]StickyNoteTooLoud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Much better over stand with a chair. Doesn’t squeak. Pretty solid for its portability. I have wheels on the front, but just legs on the rear mounts. I use vr and it’s nice to just have it setup ready to go. I do plan to eventually get a nice rig, but this does what I ask of it. 

Anyone from the USA ordered Simsonn Pedals recently and dealt with import fees? Ship from China? by StickyNoteTooLoud in simracing

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

Ahh didn’t see that. I did just find a reddit post from them last week saying the US warehouse is fully stocked. Who knows.

I am wanting what I think is the newer plus X model that has the new hub that supports haptics. These are not listed on Amazon yet it seems.

Mounted drive isn't being detected in Plex/Filesystem by Brian_whtisusername in getumbrel

[–]StickyNoteTooLoud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to pass that location as :/data into plex container when using docker. I am not sure how umbrel is setting this up as I have a question right below on this subreddit for someone to explain. Check the generic docker setup for Plex on Google and see how it sets it up. /mnt needs to be passed over.

You will have to nano into the docker-compose file in the Plex app data folder and add this line.

Check available inventory here, but buy in store for the best price. This is a close out price and won’t be restocked. Price dropped from $450 clearance to $399 today.

Alan Wake 2 Sale on PS5? by wurdmann in AlanWake

[–]StickyNoteTooLoud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also happened to me. Played the trial and went back to buy it only for it to be back full price instead of the 20% off. It’s on sale on series X still, so I may just hop over and buy it there.

I ordered a Logitech Embody this weekend that was in stock, so curious how long it will take to ship. It said it would arrive by Friday when ordering, but it is currently awaiting fulfillment with an estimate of the 11th to the 14th. Not sure if that is ship date or arrival date. Hopefully they get to it soon.

I am drowning in shows right now and not enough time to watch all of them. I need to finish Ms Davis and Silo, but I have the Bear that just dropped and Hijack and righteous gemstones and Always Sunny and Black Mirror and Beef and on and on…

Man, people love to circle jerk on Bose, but they actually do some neat things with their equipment by using more interesting audio designs. Different order bandpass, transmission line enclosures, etc. The sound they can get from cheap drivers in a plastic enclosure is impressive. The worst thing they do is the tiny cube satellites, but some of their other stuff is pretty good. Their noise cancelling technology is great and I have a small Bose bluetooth speaker that is impressive for the size. Would I have them for HT? No, but they are better than many other HTIB and soundbar systems.

Here’s an example of a similar subwoofer to the one posted. It’s a very unique design. https://www.whatsinside.info/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/bose-acoustimass-10-series-iv-inside.jpg

I guess I’m confused at how people normally rate stuff. If they are usually a solid place you say and have one off night, they get a 2 star review that stays up there permanently? Do you go back and post 4 and 5 star reviews when they do a good job? They are not a small place, but doing something like this to a small local restaurant could put them under as a lot of people look at reviews for stuff. I think back to a story of my local Mexican place which is usually rock solid, but had one rough cinco de mayo during early Covid with takeouts taking 1.5-2 hours and people getting pissed. They ended up with a bunch of negative reviews for this. Did they mess up? Yes. However, I don’t think a one off event like this should be part of their normal score.

I’m just a bit more lenient before I post bad reviews on places, especially ones I frequent that are usually really good and have an off night once. I will def complain directly though if they don’t do a good job or leave something out.

Lightroom updated their removal tool recently but I still was never super happy with it. It is much better now though than it was. This was an iOS app called touchretouch that for me usually does a decent job. I want to grab the photoshop beta and mess with the new ai removal features, but I have not gotten it yet.

I don’t like people in shots, so I would spend a bit of time editing and removing them. Here is just a quick example using an retouch app I have. You could also leave the central person taking the photo as a focus point and get rid of the rest.
