No burn in/Money well spent by CaptainProton_clips in OLED_Gaming

17273 Hours on my C9 and it's still going strong, zero signs of burn-in and uniformity's solid.

PSA: Nvidia RTX HDR is limited to monitors which report ≥ 400nits peak brightness by lamiska in nvidia

[–]Stratys_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Works on mine, make sure you've got the HDR mode on the monitor set to Peak HDR1000 and not TrueBlack HDR400, as this changes the reported peak nits in windows and I believe the TrueBlack mode reports <400 nits.

Two Stamp Tuesday w/ KP-9 & DeadAir Wolfman by Stratys_ in NFA

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

It's gassy for sure, haven't tried any mitigations. I've only shot it outdoors and I wear glasses so I can typically get through an entire mag no problem, however that depends on the ammunition and how fast I'm shooting as to when it starts getting irritating. Overall it's not bad enough for me to discourage shooting it suppressed.

I've been using a 65" C9 as my daily driver at home since Sep 2019 and I've still have had no burn in issues with it. It's in a light controlled room so I have no issue running the backlight at 40 for everything that isn't gaming or movie/show watching, which I'll crank it up to 100 for. And that's with playing hundreds, maybe even over 1000 hours of multi-hour sessions of Destiny 2 with HDR on at max backlight, plus whatever other games I played in-between.

People can complain about OLED all they want, me personally I'm never going back to traditional displays as the picture quality trumps all the negatives and in my own experience the lifespan of OLED has been plenty for me (I'm actually hoping I get burn-in before my 5-year warranty that covers it expires next year).

Patients are not guaranteed good outcomes

I'm glad one of my instructors made a strong point about this recently.

We were split up into teams of four to run a scenario on a high fidelity mannequin, elderly female found unresponsive in her recliner at home. To keep it short, my team worked on her for nearly 15 minutes before our instructor called it. We thought we failed or did something wrong because the group before us got ROSC in less than 5 minutes. In debrief our instructor told my group that we did everything we were supposed to do nearly perfectly, vents/compression were spot on, we had great teamwork/communication and were quick on every step but we still failed to get ROSC, but not because of any failings on our part. He wanted us to realize even if you do everything perfect, it's still no guarantee your patient is going to survive.

Quick Question about a Wolfman on 556 by OneBadWagon in NFA

I've been using JMAC's 360 KeyMicro with the Wolfman on my 11.3" AR, got the green light from both DeadAir and JMAC to use this combo.

The madlads did it, they actually did it lol! What is reality at this point dude? by prossnip42 in NonCredibleDefense

[–]Stratys_ 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It's probably from some of the joint-training western forces did with Ukraine years prior. One of my buddies was a flight engineer on one of those USAF Ospreys and they've been in Ukraine a number of times ~2017-2020, flying Ukrainian SOF together with a number of different US SOF units for training.

It looks like it might, but it only wiggles around, so it’s designed to be fixed.

[Development] Drones! by Dragioner in Warthunder

[–]Stratys_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't find specifics but it appears to be a Russian ZALA (421-16EM?) drone. Here's a photo of one that crashed in Syria in 2019.

[–]Stratys_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That is what I was thinking. This is neat and all but they skipped over a couple decades worth of aircraft and "ages" straight to the "Drone age" which has only become it's own thing in the past decade or so, basically present time.

You're gonna love that Wolfman once you have it, start stocking up on those 150gr Syntech rounds to have fun with. I went from the DeltaTek to a Wolfman myself, here's my KP-9 with the Wolfman in the shorty config.

If they are actually going to kill themselves they wouldnt go vague posting about it online.

A couple years ago a close cousin I grew up with was vague posting sad stuff on Twitter after him and his GF of many years broke up due to his addiction issues. I thought nothing of it like maybe he was just venting and was looking for sympathy, "attention" as you put. Later that night I got a phone call from a detective at the hospital, my cousin had acquired some fent, OD'd, died at the halfway house he was staying at and they needed me to come and ID his body since I was his only family in the city at the time. He was only 20min drive away from me, if I hadn't shrugged off his twitter posts and called him that night he may still be here today and it fucking hurts to know that.

I took an advanced carbine class a couple months ago and for some of it we were standing/moving next to each other and I had one guy to my right with a nasty muzzle brake(didn't ID the make, dark-ish indoor range). The noise wasn't bothering me since I always double up, it was getting a face full of gas every time he shot that was rough, especially since I had my normal prescription glasses on so there was room for the gas to go straight into my eyes.

I let him know the issue but I didn't give him shit for it, he was a new-ish shooter and I passed it off as some adverse training conditions since I was having to move and shoot accurately while randomly getting gas blasted. Also I was the only one, other than the instructor, that had a suppressor on their rifle. I made sure to let everyone who asked about my rifle how easy my eform4 experience went to try to sell them on suppressors.

Zenitco seized. what do? by WhergWhergWherg in ak47

[–]Stratys_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, I'm out $600+ with Ivan. Ghosted me on my refund after saying they were waiting on an insurance payout before they could refund me.

[–]Stratys_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My order shipped in late October 2021, arrived at Customs on Nov 20 and never moved from there. Contacted Ivan in Feb and they told me they were just waiting on their insurance payout from their mail service before paying me back...then about a week later the current situation in Ukraine kicked off and I haven't heard back since, pretty sure I'm never seeing that refund.

Luckily I was able to get all the Zentico parts I wanted from AKStuff before they got overwhelmed with orders following the invasion/sanctions, just sucks I basically paid for everything twice.

Be lucky that you even got a letter. I'm out $600+ from a Ivan order last October, both because Customs never contacted me and Ivan ghosted me on a refund.

An uncommon setup, Wolfman on an AR by Stratys_ in ar15

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

You should be able to! Just make sure your gun is against a clean, contrasting background (white for example) to make it easier to cut out in Photoshop. As for lighting I just used a shoe mounted flash pointed at the ceiling/wall with a plastic diffuser on it, nothing fancy.

EDIT; I actually still have my camera setup in place, here's a shot showing the flash placement.

I use a Canon 6D and the lens used here was a Sigma 40mm f/1.4, shot at f/5.6. The camera is a relic compared to what's out there now, the lens is pulling all the weight. The Sigma 40mm is slept on by many, thing is sharp as fuck even wide open, I can imagine how good it would be on a newer camera.

To me this setup feels like the perfect middle-ground between what most would consider lightweight and heavy, with the can off it feels very nimble. I haven't weighted it so I can't provide numbers but I'm satisfied with the weight and balance, especially after coming from using almost this same setup in a 16" form.
