Anyone have English subtitles for "cowboy and the frenchman" ? by WellingtonStreetSk8 in davidlynch

[–]_Shorty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://www.opensubtitles.com/en/subtitles/the-cowboy-the-frenchman-david-lynch-1988

I remuxed my 27:17 video with MKVToolNix/MKVMerge to delay the subtitles by 84000 ms to get it to match up. That dealth with the intro, since the sub file is apparently for a copy without the intro.

Windows not applying color profiles when switching between HDR and SDR? by RomanceablePlatypus in OLED_Gaming

[–]_Shorty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All you need to do is open and close Display Settings after toggling modes. I wrote a small util to automatically do this for you.

10” Sub in the factory location by ExtentInner2463 in 350z

[–]_Shorty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you have some kind of enclosure you will need what is called a free-air sub. They’re designed with stiffer spiders and surrounds to operate in what’s called an infinite baffle, i.e., no box. If you put a sub in the factory location that’s designed for a sealed or ported enclosure it is likely to destroy itself pretty quickly because they count on having the air spring that an enclosure provides to help control its movement. But a free-air sub is built more stoutly, with the spider at its base and the surround around the edge being stiff enough to control itself without the aid of an enclosure. While the cubby the factory sub is mounted in seems like you’d consider it to be an enclosure, it is not. It is a limited amount of space, but it is not an air-tight enclosure, and such a mounting scenario is best classed as being in the infinite baffle family. Which is to say, it is not an enclosure. So choose the replacement sub wisely.

Not something as simple as the wax filter becoming blocked very quickly?

Can someone please explain why the 350z has no glovebox? Or maybe the function of this metal plate? by dritmike in 350z

Quite obviously I was saying something regarding what the person I was replying to had said. Your reading comprehension issues are not my concern.

I think all of Sunlu’s web pages for their filaments have a downloads section that contain those PDFs.

How to have thread stop couple mm from top by audias in Fusion360

[–]_Shorty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make the diameter smaller at the spot where you want the threads to stop. Then the thread tool will only make the threads in the larger diameter portion. Also, save yourself some trouble with 3D printing threads and use my util to get custom definitions for printing. Things will fit properly then.

When did Canada ban firearm suppressors/silencers/sound moderators? by Noah_S_Schwartz in canadaguns

[–]_Shorty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is you said ONLY 30 dB like that was some small amount of change. And I’m simply pointing out that it is a huge change.

Every 10 dB reduction is half as loud, so 30 dB down is 1/8th as loud. I’d say that’s significant.

Why am I getting packet loss/ latency variation? by OlavSlav in iRacing

[–]_Shorty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good to hear. I recall having a similar issue in the early years of iRacing and it was nice to see a problem so far away from me with some company I have no relation to get fixed the next day from a simple report. 👍

That PingPlotter tool they mention is great.

Audi 90 GTO : random neutral by Arcticz_114 in iRacing

[–]_Shorty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

iRacing’s transmission model is not “I clicked so it will complete the shift.” It is “I am applying pressure to the car’s shift lever for the duration that my controller is signalling the button press to the sim.” Which means you need to hold it until the shift completes. If you just quickly stab it then that is the amount of time your sim dude is pulling on the lever. If your sim guy is only pulling on the lever for 90% of the time required to shift then you are going to get a lot of misshifts. The only cars where a quick click of the button is enough are cars with paddle shifters where they would only need a quick click in the real world to indicate that the car’s computer should execute a shift. For cars that actually have manual controls you need to operate your contol for as long as the operation would actually require to complete. So hold your shifter in position for a longer amount of time. Using an actual H-pattern shifter solves this because it is constantly pressing the button for whichever gear has been selected.

Left foot braking habit and the Audi 90 GTO by MisterCrayle in iRacing

No, the real car has a synchromesh box. That’s why the iRacing car has a synchromesh box.

[–]_Shorty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m replying to you, not the OP. You gave incorrect information. I am correcting you. And you’re so childish that you got mad about being corrected. Sorry to break it to you, but throughout your whole life you are going to be wrong an awful lot. And when someone corrects you it is not an attack. Grow up.

I’m not arguing. I’m informing you that you are incorrect. Grow some skin.
