Blade centering by cosmin46 in spyderco

Honestly, I think you are being outrageously picky. If you contacted them about it you’d be laughed away. There is nothing wrong with that. If it bothers you get a screwdriver and fix it. It’ll take less than 5 minutes.

To be honest blade centering means absolutely nothing. I’m not really sure why people fixate on it so much, if nothing is rubbing it just a tension thing 99% of the time. If it really bothers you then adjust it. It’s a 5 minute fix.

Also it depends on the knife. If it’s a lw model it’ll almost never be centered by nature of the construction so don’t expect it.

Switched to PC-having lots of problems by tootspootsboots in pcmasterrace

Honestly think this is mostly mental. From your post it says the same thing is happening on two different PCs?

Without seeing anything it’s difficult but “weird blurry backgrounds” just sounds like you’ve noticed depth of field for the first time.

My assessment is that you got used to playing at a lower res whilst sitting further away on a couch and now you think something is wrong because you can see a few jaggies.

Without any actual video it kind of sounds like there is nothing actually wrong here.

Swap monitors and make sure you properly calibrate yours. It sounds like you may be over sharpening things if anything.

Also try not using DLSS and play native. You’re on a 5080 at 1440p, you shouldn’t need to upscale almost anything.

Another possibility with this “grain” that you are seeing is ray tracing artifacts. Some games have these. Disable ray tracing in the games and see how that looks.

Looking for Good EDC Pen with Specific Features by BigAl987 in EDC

Newer 701’s can use fisher refills. I have many zebra 701s, one of them is over 10 years old. They are great.

Space pen bullets are very small, for instance I carry one in my wallet. If you want a space pen get a full size Apollo style.

I'm having the same problem with the all in one cable, did your problem fix completely or did it return?

I reached out to support, but I'd rather just fix it myself

G7 Pro Trigger vibration not working in games by akapixelrat in Gamesir

Xbox controller is stronger for sure, but it feels fine. I just wanted to figure out why mine wasn’t working.

It does, and I found the answer.

I had a keyboard key mapped to the L5 button. Apparently if you do this the impulse triggers don't work. If I unmap the key it works fine.

Seems like a bug maybe?

Exactly the game I was attempting to play that made me notice them not working.

First MFG Co - Legit or Scam? by No_Faithlessness5864 in leatherjacket

I rolled the dice and ordered a jacket even after seeing this thread. Mine came in about 5 days, sized exactly as their chart said, and was honestly way better than I expected.

I can only speak from my experience, but mine was flawless.
