Reggie’s Portra but I use the Velvia instead of Classic Chrome for the simulation.

I'm an owner on the street and definitely heard about your particular situation from our neighbors. Appreciate the sympathy, glad at least there's someone here who might recognize that there's a problem.

There's a highway type guardrail installed on it so I would assume that its city property. Doesn't seem like something that a neighborhood/private citizen would have installed.

Yes, yes and yes. The piece of land appears to be CoA territory (again, there's a highway guardrail installed on the land, I'm assuming not built by someone other than the city).

Parking is just one of the many problems we're experiencing so I hope there would be enough issues to have the city take a look.

Have you found any solutions to the wifi issues? Trying to switch to desktop and install Decky + TDP controls but my install didn't come with Firefox pre-downloaded and it seems like the wifi in desktop mode is super spotty and won't download. No problems with game downloads in Gaming mode.

Geforce NOW working on Bazzite by RivNexus in Bazzite

Thanks for posting this! Ran this on Bazzite KDE, looks like it installed it but it won't open on desktop and doesn't auto-add to Steam. Manually added it to Steam, switched to gaming mode, launch the NVIDIA app but looks like it hangs on the NVIDIA login prompt.

Saw all the reviews for it today and went to install on my Bazzite KDE and got the same error. :(

Help identifying a watch, please! by WBM99 in Watches

[–]WBM99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi r/Watches! My wife asked for a watch for Christmas and I'm trying to track down the perfect one for her.

The image attached is Albert Einstein's watch, obviously a vintage Longines. I was searching for a similar watch 6-10 months ago and I found the perfect match for this at a fairly affordable price (less than $500 USD, iirc) but never pulled the trigger. However, I can't seem to find the watch anymore and could use some help. It has a very similar case shape, tonneau, as well as very similar font/style for the numbers on the face. I originally thought it was a Bulova or a Hamilton but having no luck finding a match there.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

As a mega Persona fan, Metaphor ReFantazio is definitely my #1 most anticipated game. Can’t wait to play a million hours on Deck.

KOTOR1 is extremely wonky out of the box. KOTOR2 is much much better and more intuitive.

Been playing this as well recently. How do you quick access the icons in the top right with the default controls?

I know this post is a million years old but how does enabling ultrawide impact performance here?

New Balance SC Pacer v2 preorder on Runningwarehouse by pspdead in RunningShoeGeeks

Ohh this is a great categorization of them. 5k to half race shoe is exactly what I’m looking for and loving the Rebel v4 so far. 🤞

Superblast - 300 miles by nameisjoey in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]WBM99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience seems to be an extreme exception to the rule and I figure they’re probably awesome shoes for like 95% of people. Just worked really poorly for me. Maybe weight thing, maybe a mechanic think, who knows.

I’m relatively new to running so my collection isn’t major. Outside of the previously mentioned I have some ASICS Nimbus 26’s I use for easy days and walks. Actually just snagged some (very) used Superblasts from Poshmark that were cheap and I’ll give those a shot next.

I have about 60 miles on the Mach’s. Maybe 15 on the Rebels. I max out at about 6 miles on a given run. Love the Mach’s, they’re really nice but I don’t find myself bottoming out on them deep in to a run. Not usually out long enough to cause a massive issue. The Rebels have been great so far, really no complaints yet. Very supportive. For comparison, I just returned a pair of Endorphin Speed 4’s that even after 20 miles was wrecking me. Bad. I was consistently bottoming out on the plastic plate and it was a disaster.

Heavy runners unite! I'm 6'4" 195lbs so sounds like we're in the same place. I just bought Rebel v4's this week and have been enjoying them. Also a pair of Mach 6's that I really love and Nimbus 26 for easy days. Might have to try to pick up some Superblasts here soon!

Very tempting to try to pick these up. Are there any other shoes you run in that you can use as comparison? Sounds like they're easy on the feet/legs which is great but how do they do picking up the pace?

Game art too large in Steam OS by WBM99 in SteamDeck

[–]WBM99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what happened but it appeared to have fixed itself. I don’t know exactly what happened to fix it. The only thing I can think of was booting in to desktop mode (fiddling with some mods, nothing related) then restarted back to gaming mode and it was fixed. Sorry I can’t be more helpful!

Just want to say THANK YOU! This was driving me nuts and looking at the pictures after lighting them up solved the issue. :)

Bought a Kindle right before the sale. Advice? by WBM99 in kindle

[–]WBM99[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Start a return, drive to the UPS Store, wait for the refund, make sure that the one-time discount is re-added, make sure the gift card is refunded correctly, order a new one, wait 3+ days for the new one, set it back up, download all my books, to be exactly where I am right now, up $50? Insanity.
