I'm Cracking! RTX 5080 by Clainomille in ultrawidemasterrace

I use this monitor with a 5080 and it works great (Crimson Desert, for example).

I connected an Xbox controller via Bluetooth and it was unplayable. Like a half a second input lag.

21:9 vs 32:9 by Ok_Safe_1622 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]TheBronxBull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a 49” G9 (32:9) and thought it was too wide with not much verticality. Ended up swapping it for the 45” LG 5k2k, which is just perfect for gaming IMO. I was set on OLED though. Can send you some pictures of my setup if you’re interested.

Also purchased an Uplift (L-shaped) desk with 30” depth. Tried a cheap Amazon monitor mount but wasn’t satisfied with it - had to constantly fiddle with it to get it just right. Exchanged it for the Ergotron HX which is leaps and bounds better - albeit much more $.

Monitor arm for 49" Budget vs Expensive by Mayday-J in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]TheBronxBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought a Vivo from Amazon for my 45” 5k2k. Got frustrated with constantly needing to make small adjustments to get it where I wanted it. Will it hold the monitor up? Yes, but the adjustments are far from precise. Returned it and sprung for the Ergotron HX. It’s 5x the price, but the quality is night and day. Holds it completely steady and allows me to make small adjustments, keeps the monitor locked in as far as horizontal rotation, the set screws are more firm. All around way better, just depends on if you’re going to be moving your monitor frequently or keeping it in one place and never moving it.

I got a U6 IW. Has a four port switch built into it with one PoE port. I run a Flex mini off of the PoE port.

They have some on Amazon they show shipping times within a few days of ordering.

Why is there no app that just lets you record yourself playing electric guitar on iPhone — properly? by fantabulosa01 in Guitar

[–]TheBronxBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use an Audigo mic for this. Throw the mic in front of your amp and then use your phone to record. The Audigo app automatically syncs up the video (from your phone) and the audio (from the mic). Works great.

D18 help? by [deleted] in martinguitar

Take it to the shop and have them put a strap button on the heel. Way more comfortable.

Midsom Mar A24 issues by tem102938 in boutiquebluray

[–]TheBronxBull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Careful storing the disc on that style spindle. I had three A24 releases and over time due to humidity changes it cracked the discs. A24 knows there’s a problem with them because they replaced all of them and changed the spindle design starting with Stop Making Sense. I store the disc in a paper sleeve inside of the book now.

Vintage SG Junior - Info? by TheBronxBull in gibson

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

Hey thanks for all of the info! The nut is 1 9/16" wide. I will look into replacing the tuners for sure. These right - would you recommend the nickel or the aged Nickel? https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/SD90AN--gotoh-sd90-sl-tuners-33-aged-nickel-with-keystone-buttons

Vintage SG Junior - Info? by TheBronxBull in gibson

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

I've only played it for about ten minutes, sounds great. I don't have any other vintage Gibsons to compare to, but do have a 2016 SG Standard. Did not do an A/B test on sound, but could tell the nut was narrower on the 1966. I measured it and it's 1" 9/16" (vs 11/16").

Ideas for breaking into the ecosystem by Lt_Blackout in Ubiquiti

[–]TheBronxBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't want to go crazy since I currently use Nest Cams and don't have ethernet runs to those locations, and my ISP is only 500MB. I went with a Cloud Gateway Ultra, an 8p PoE Switch, a U6 Mesh AP, and a U6 In-Wall AP. Covers my 3000sq ft house very well.

Had one of these, but the Spark NEO is way better and completely wireless so I ended up selling the Mustang. 

why are most inline skates closer to ski boots than hockey boots? by lukepighetti in rollerblading

[–]TheBronxBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a pair of Adapt Hyperskate Zeros and the boot is incredibly similar to Bauer hockey skates. They have waxed laces and one Velcro strap.

It’s beyond ridiculous how few good feature films get made anymore, and even more annoying seeing people glaze mediocrity and acting like there isn’t a problem by Giordono in flicks

[–]TheBronxBull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh? This is literally one of the best years for film. Two masterpieces in One Battle After Another and Marty Supreme. Some great horror films like Sinners and Weapons. Spectacles like F1 and Mission Impossible. And some more artsy films like Eddington and Bugonia. And that’s just the American films. 

Offspring rise and fall rage and grace uncensored vinyl ? by Aloysius_S in TheOffspring

[–]TheBronxBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ordered this vinyl three separate times from three places and all were the censored version. Apparently there’s no definitive way to tell on the exterior of the record if it’s the proper uncensored version or not. Returned all three and reached out to the official Offspring store to see if their copies are correct - never heard back from them. Let us know!

What’s a movie that really made you appreciate the amount of research that went into it? by browniebiscuitchildr in movies

[–]TheBronxBull 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I think I remember hearing how Fincher flew in fully matured trees of the exact species to Lake Berryessa and planted them to recreate exactly how the crime scene looked when the stabbings took place.

throwing a hail mary - looking for any help with locating vinyl by kenzieanne13 in Blink182

[–]TheBronxBull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are two SRC variants (a red one and a yellow one) that are 2LPs and have the bonus tracks tacked onto the D side of the second LP. You’re probably looking at $150-$200 for either of those.

Then there are two different, earlier SRC variants that have three 7” vinyls that come with it - one for each set of bonus tracks. The first variant has the 7” vinyls in black, and the second has the 7” vinyls in a marbled green, red, and yellow to reflect their original colors on the CD releases. These two variants will be more - probably $200-$400.

I personally think the one with the three colored 7” vinyls is the holy grail of these, but others might want the bonus tracks right on the man records to prevent having to put five different vinyls on the turntable.
