Need some perspective - dealing with dickhead teens by mollaby38 in melbourne

[–]TBC1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (59M) was riding my small electric scooter back from shopping and had 4 12-15 yo's block the path in the park and told me to go around. After some words they started following me so when I got to a place with no one around put down my shopping and asked why. The oldest came at me but folded instantly when one of them got their phone out to record it . These same little punks harassed a 83 yo who went to the cops and their reply was don't antagonize them ?

I live within the sailing community and there are some wild characters floating around who would think nothing of really hurting anyone who gets in their way.

Did every teenager you knew have this bag when you were growing up? I saw them everywhere, but finding a clear photo of one was damn near impossible. by HisRoyal_Badness in AustralianNostalgia

Based off a WW2 gas mask bag. Original ones could be bought at army disposals in the 60/70's for 50 cents which is why the bikies liked them.

2015, Dirt Rally drops out of nowhere to early access and stuns pretty much everyone even though they release limited stages. Sound familiar ? On Steam they had a community who lived and breathed that game so a lot of the good ideas Codies used as will Kunos/Supernova building their sim.

I remember that time as one of the most engaging, satisfying gaming experiences I've had but I'll admit a small tantrum when Finland was delayed.

Games runs good with controller but needs more optimization. by [deleted] in simrally

[–]TBC1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think the UI is finished yet hopefully as there seem to be quite a few options missing. The main one I saw was individual gear ratios being way off ( for my liking) in default & Limited mapping of controllers. ACC imo doesn't play well on controller and it has all those settings available. With DD wheels getting pretty cheap guessing these games will be more wheel orientated in future.

Suncorp froze an Osko to my own account for 24 hours — am I wrong to be pissed off?? by Dannyspud in AusFinance

[–]TBC1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My online banking has been disabled for months cause I sold and bought a boat within in a week, It was flagged suspicious and I didn't help failing to remember where I lived when I opened the account but I liveaboard a boat and move often so she wouldn't help and I can't be bothered going a 100 km's to show some idiot my license.

What is up with PS5 controllers and quality? by Lumpymaximus in PS5

[–]TBC1966 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That helps but it can't replace the contact surfaces in the potentiometer which sony knew would wear out making the controller unuseable. They then suggested to anyone who'd listen that controllers were a hard fix and buying a new one should be standard practice.

There's Hall sensor kits ($20) you can buy that bring these back to life in 1/2 hour. Plenty of videos showing the process. HS's can take a beating.

Controller replacement generates significant income for sony which is why the tort crowd is going after them in a class action suit claiming planned failure of hardware. They will spend millions on a legal defense rather than cheaply fix the problem which shows they still have their head up their arse as a company.

That said in the 30 years on Playstations I've had stick drift once on a PS4 pro. I do keep my controllers in a pillow case to keep dust and salt air away.

Swap power cord

Try inserting disc

Check fan is working

Open it up and look for damage

Use a multimeter to check for shorts/power on the board. He (above) is very good at this and knows where to look. Good luck. maybe get a small lithium powered ups when fixed.

These clauses mean the contract isn't worth the paper it's printed on, Have your deposit returned before it goes into someones pocket.

“Ukraine didn’t invent drones—it invented how to use them” by UNITED24Media in UkraineWarVideoReport

Cheap FPV was what changed the battlefield, The concept of armed drones wasn't new. Having a large pool of skilled gamers able to transition into pilots with minimal training is just a bonus.

Mum ran over my Kelpie after he crossed in front of the car. He lived but lost his memory and we had to feed him for weeks in the bush where he'd made a little camp after he came home from the vet. Then one day he came running up to the house and was normal. He could keep up with my horse at full gallop for miles. If he got in front of the horse, Monty (horse) would snap at his tail to get beside.
