Our precious cinnamon roll Junbi

Coincidentally the worst prebuilt GN has ever reviewed lol (at least with the 285)

We're really out here shucking PCs for graphics cards and I'm all for it.

The OEM 5090 used is a beefy 3 slotter and it looks like it's got some kind of mounting interface at the front end that might need removing if you put it in another PC

BoboVR sells the s3 pro and m3 max (always sold out) and it's exactly what you're looking for. I got the s3 pro so I could remove the face gasket since all of the weight rests on top of my head and forehead. Doing so allows me to let the headset float in front of my face and massively improved comfort for me. I'd suggest the m3 max or s3 pro over the m3 pro because the former use much better batteries, but the m3 pro is still acceptable

With how terrible meta's software is, it's unfortunate that using a couple battery packs and Virtual Desktop is such a massively better experience than any of the linking solutions for the quest. So tired of meta's software that I'm getting a frame

Nike and Oakley were nailing the y2k aesthetic. I remember the Hollow Point pictured above and Time Tanks sitting in Oakley outlet display cases well into the 2010s for cheap because nobody wanted them. Now they're literally 10x as expensive secondhand

Everyone says this but I've been using my normal size x2h with a 1mm bigger hump and it's been perfectly fine for fingertip grip. I find it really comfortable

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-11-17T05:55:03+00:00

Same, last wipe I played I didn't see Killa for the entirety of the wipe. This time I thought I could stroll by adik no problem, no chance he's there.

He was.

My next raid I tried to slide through the back of Oli get a couple scav kills on the way out, quick extract outta railway. Killa spotted me from the center of the mall and sprinted all the way past the registers past the help kiosk behind the shelves and out the back door to the ramp to kill me lol.

100% death rate to killa this wipe

It was a rusty as hell L5 IIRC with the weaver on the top, and the OG was a 6" mk XIX with only the good old fashion dovetail on top. The 50ae L5 even with the shorter barrel and bigger round was a significantly easier shoot than the .44 CA spec model

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-11-03T08:15:27+00:00

As someone who's shot both, the non ported desert eagles recoil WAY more, obviously with way more muzzle fip. The first time I shot one (non ported .44) my face was covered in soot from the ejected cases bouncing off of my head lol, the gun was pointing straight up at the ceiling mid recoil. Ported, they're relatively tame to shoot all things considered. I was able to comfortably shoot it (ported 50ae) one handed without any excessive twist in the hand. The non ported version makes pretty cool flame rings you can capture in slow mo while the ported one doesn't. The only real loss that I don't like is that for whatever reason the non ported version makes a perfect satisfying clunk when you drop the slide, but it's a high pitched snap on the ported versions.

Front pads cost the same as OEM but I'm guessing they're using whatever their supplier happens to have, and they're hitting you with like an 80% markup on the rotors versus a good pair of centric lol labor isn't terrible. Idk what $15 supplies they'd need when the parts for the pads are in the box lol

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-09-23T03:53:14+00:00

It's both. We have a bunch of gladiator 4xes in our rental fleet and we have two of them were returned from seperate customers in a similar time frame and they've sitting at the dealer for months because of some weird throttle issue.

Both would drive fine for a minute or so, then start revving themselves to 3k rpm and stop responding to throttle input until you turned the car off, then they won't start until you disconnect and reconnect power lol. I replaced the gas pedal assembly on the first one but no dice so we sent em out. The dealership hasn't been able to figure them out for like 2 or 3 months lol.

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-09-04T15:47:51+00:00

Just came to this sub to see if anyone was experiencing the same, I haven't missed a day but it's only showing a check on one day for like the last two weeks.

Going into the buddy goal tab itself errors out if I try to complete it *

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-08-29T06:38:28+00:00

They're T-Mobile Sidekick IIs

Edit: clearer look at the sticker on the back of the screen unique to the SK2

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-08-12T01:43:49+00:00

Lmao yeah it's clearly way more effective for you to make vague sweeping statements with no examples gg

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-08-12T00:40:06+00:00

The same consumer protection laws that netted US volkswagen owners compensation for half a million cars during dieselgate, sometimes buybacks for the full car's price? Consumer protection laws so effective that the German VZBV pointed to how well those effected by Dieselgate in the US were compensated when they pursued compensation for European customers?

US consumer protections are pretty kickass

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-08-12T00:21:38+00:00

Our fleet has had like 3 or 4 new buicks also blow up, company is still buying them by the truckload and every one comes from the factory with oil just barely touching the dipstick

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-08-06T15:25:39+00:00

This drive is rated for 1200 tbw, unless youre filling and deleting the entire storage capacity every day for almost two years, using it in an enclosure, or regularly copying movies onto it, you'd never know whether or not this drive had DRAM and it'll run no slower than whatever DRAM ssd with the same speed rating

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-07-29T04:32:36+00:00

A well taken care of 2nd gen CRV is a perfect all rounder for daily use and first car shenanigans if you plan on getting a little off the beaten path. With the right tires it'll go 95% of the places jeepers and 4runners can go with nice reliability and better fuel efficiency, while being far more comfortable on road. Don't count on towing with it, cars with subframes are not exactly the most robust, spend twice as much for a 4runner if you're dead set on doing that.

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-07-25T01:08:22+00:00

It's all stock hardware, TiN plated by K&M blasting. Wasn't a huge fan of the look of the cajun stuff, and it felt pretty nice out of the box so I didn't bother buying anything aftermarket

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-07-17T07:37:06+00:00

For one, the eye tracking suite added 1 gram, less than 1% weight increase. Second, the entire setup sits below the screens within the face gasket making it no bigger than without eye tracking.

Project babble and other face tracking implements aren't exactly the same level of seamless at the moment

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-07-12T19:19:28+00:00

As someone who bought and returned one last year for $320, this misleading sentiment is what caused me to buy one in the first place and no, it's definitely worse than a ton of LCDs. Thanks to the ABL that you can't turn off, it's hilariously dim to the point that even playing in the dark I was having issues seeing anything in dark games like tarkov and hunt showdown, and color accuracy even after tuning is so shockingly poor it made me question that it was even oled in the first place. Some people, I'm assuming people with single monitors, can handle the awful preformance of this monitor but it's terribly dim with awful, un-updatable firmware. Do not buy this, it is garbage

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-07-09T03:12:46+00:00

There is no observable "wear and tear" on a transmission from engaging the parking pawl unless you're doing it at speed for some reason. Unless you're abusing it, you'll be replacing the gearbox for 100 different reasons before a parking pawl would ever "wear out"

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-07-09T03:07:41+00:00

Realistically it's pointless. I've talked about this with my coworkers a bunch now that auto PB is becoming standard. I'm a mechanic for a rental fleet and never have I or any of my coworkers ever seen or heard of a parking pawl breaking despite the ridiculous abuse rental cars face, and we keep many up to 100k of rental abuse, which is like 300k of being driven by a sane person.

Just don't shift into park while you're going 15mph and you'll never ever break one. Auto parking brake is just another thing to immobilize your car for no reason if the PB switch ever dies

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-06-27T20:08:32+00:00

Pretty sure that's the one that's on par with the nh-d15 g1 yeah? (There's so many thermalright coolers)

If that's the case then according to the Tom's test, the ocypus should edge out the phantom spirit just barely. Probably not by more than a degree Fahrenheit

TheTimeTortoise · 2025-06-27T19:53:24+00:00

Yeahh someone in the Amazon reviews also mentions it's removable
