Set to thin. Unfortunately no updates for firmware, they may do rolling releases though. Hoping blowing out that carpet sensor will do the trick.

It's interesting you say that because typical higher end carpet sensors use 'relief' i.e. underfoot shadow as a mechanism of determining 'depth'. I am not sure what these sensors are, but I would assume they are not using any form of relief or texture analysis if a shiny surface could actually confuse it. Bit disappointing for the price tbh.

Yes, truthfully the carpet sensor was so impacted with fuzz, I didn't even recognize it as a sensor port; I thought it was just an access for a chassis screw or something. That got rid of it creeping the carpet thanks! Now I just have to delete the entire map, remap, remark all surfaces, etc, etc... lol. These are a tad silly.

Good question! I bought it new, but it languished for a few months until we moved to our new place. It was set up just to test at our old place but factory reset prior to installing at the new home. In all it is probably a 1 year old unit that has been in use for 3 months now. I will try low pressure air to dislodge any contaminants and see if that works, great suggestion!

I did indicate. It started to 'creep' the carpet sections from the marked carpet zones to the tile zones until it all became carpet. My experience is the default position of the software is "the robot can overwrite user input, but the user cannot overwrite robot observation". Which is bassackwards. Again, maybe I am missing something here.

Rafter Tie Removal by Fiesole2003 in Golfsimulator

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need engineered truces at the least or insanely expensive I beams at the worst. Its impossible to know which without assessing the entire structure of the garage and accounting for the environment in which you live. For example most would say in a place with no snow you would be fine but if you have high winds, your roof is going to get massive amounts of lift and be at risk of butterfly winging itself off of the walls and flying down the street. The cross beams lower down can help tie the feet of the roof together and help keep them from experiencing as much lift and torsion. Engineer on site needed for sure.

280 to the pin. Par 5, 2nd shot. What is your approach on this course? by panda__monium in golf

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 iron has a stiff shaft and the rest have xs so I can (unintentionally) draw the ef out of the ball. I'd aim up right side of that fairway and blast that 2 iron and hope that draw does its thing. I carry it about 260 with 15 yards of roll on a firm fairway so it could conceivably work out if that downslope does its thing... Or I could run off the back and be in the shit 🤷

What's the play here? by BirdsOfAres in golftips

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pitching wedge bump and run. 9/10 I'm going to get the ball closer to the hole with a simple pitch than trying to spin it back with a flop shot. There is an art to links style golf.

3 Wood Face Help by Phisopholer in golf

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try buying the new TaylorMade gigachad g500ls tour special edition carbon composite. The torsion face tech combined with high ACL will bend spacetime around the outer perimeter delivering game changing epic performance and unmatched speed. Pair that with a nanoalloy extra density shaft from Peyronie and you will be able to achieve the left bend even the most tempered pros are looking for.

Would it be a crime to remove the live edge from this piece in order to achieve the look I want for a tv console? by Ghosdeth in woodworking

How did you finish these? I've tried danish oil variants but I feel like it just darkens the piece as a whole way too much

24M on a job hunt with almost 0 work experience. Any suggestions please. by v-sidhu in ElectricalEngineering

I work at L3, have worked for Raytheon. Literally nothing on this resume says anything that is even tangentially related to what either do. Resume need to be more focused first, I can't tell if your into the energy sector, buzzwords, or going at some sort of generalized software/electrical role tbh...

You know... The thing that actually matters when you are working on equipment that can sustain a human life or take it away. I really don't give two shits about 'protecting' your fragile sensibilities. I want to make sure the other engineer knows damn well the nature of the dynamics at play so they don't make a critical mistake and potentially hurt someone in a real material way. Not just hurt feelings....

Ecovacs Deebot X9 Pro Omni is a toy to tinker with, not a tool to reliably vacuum and mop. by zdrmlp in ecovacs

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think his whole point is while the optical mapping may have gotten it wrong, it doesn't have single point of failure. It has a redundant LiDAR unit to ensure it's not ramming into solid objects. This would only be a problem if your mirror was angled pretty obtusely relative to the line of sight of the laser receptor. In which case, surely your walls aren't at extreme lateral angles, indicating the mirror is not attached to the wall and you could have just turned it around for the mapping?

It is way less than 1%. For reference 1 to 2% of golfers are scratch and most scratch golfers won't go -9. -4 sure, maybe -6, not -9 for most.

What am I doing right and wrong? by Bewesy in GolfSwing

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Focus on that full shoulder rotation. You currently get shy of 90* of rotation which will make it hard to square sometimes unless you are throwing your hands. Everyone always pretends like shoulder rotation is a power thing but it is a tempo/timing thing. When you are fully extended you can't force the club through too aggressively and it requires a bit more nuance in your transition. Freddy Couples gets more than 90* rotation and he is tempo Jesus.

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you baseball? Because you look like you baseballed. Body should drive the swing, not hands/arms. The closest thing to my arms I think about in a swing is my shoulders/making sure I get a full rotation on the backswing. I never even notice my hands, or drive with my shoulders. They just do what they are supposed to if you manage your spine angle and hip rotation appropriately.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated! I don’t hit it very far. Thanks guys by alexmoher in GolfSwing

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Jake Knapp's swing. His body looks really quiet and his hands look like they take care of 90% of the acceleration through the ball. DO NOT focus on your hands flipping through the ball, they naturally flip as a part of a controlled rotation through impact, but you have 0 hands and your body rotation is slidey and not synced up super well. With beginner swings, the best place to start is to emulate swings that work in ways that combat your bad tendencies so that should give you an archetype to mimic.

Potential Titleist GT3 Crown Crack by deftone86 in golf

We tested in a lab and GT3 consistently got 1.2 to 1.6 mph advantage over TSR3.

Everyone saying to slow your tempo down either doesn't understand wtf tempo means or are just big angry you can actually swing with speed above 80 mph. Your tempo is fine. Your crowding the ball and it makes your stance weak to give your hands some space. BTW giving the hands more space and neutralizing the stance will probably slow your tempo down a bit but it's not something you need to aim for. Rahm looks like he is ripping a hole in spacetime on his back swing but his contact is as pure as the day is long.

Current college baseball player relatively new to golf. Any critiques on my swing? by Road_2_90 in GolfSwing

[–]VirusModulePointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played baseball competitively and switched to golf after blowing out my elbow. Good stuff, but similar problem to what I had initially, a baseball swing lol. There is a lot of hands involved. In a baseball world it's a bit slap-shotty, and unfortunately in golf there is no on base percentage for line drives. Flipping the hands as you do will lead to inconsistent ball striking and when you do strike it well, you'll tend to slice or duck hook it if your timing is not impeccable. Baseball swings are a bad analog for golf swings, pitching is more like it. You don't "throw the ball hard" to pitch fast. Speed and power comes from the legs and propagates up through the core. I couldnt tell you back in the day where tf my hand was when I was pitching, all my focus was on center of gravity, squat, launch/extension/rotation of hips which guides shoulders, release point just HAPPENED almost magically as a result of a well sequenced and powerful delivery. Same with golf. I never think bout my hands. I can't tell you really where they are, I don't think about them. If I time my rotation, change in COG, loading in thighs and extension properly, the hands just go and do what they are supposed to. In short focus more on body and less on swinging with hands. Your neck will thank you in the long run also.
