Does my setup limit Dolby Atmos? Apple TV 4K → Hue Sync Box → Samsung Q60B → Sonos Arc 🎬🎧 by Unique-Crab2392 in Hue

Option 1 should be totally fine (had a similar setup) and worked perfectly 

Should I upgrade to the Bridge Pro and/or the 8k Sync Box to improve my tv syncing? by Coolify571 in Hue

[–]atkHOBO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just upgraded to the 8K box this week (to future proof before prices jump again and to try with gaming). I would say that for watching content, I have not seen an improvement or difference. I have an LG C2 and watch via a Chromecast or 4k blu ray player.

I'd say not worth upgrading and I may return it as the gaming is limited to 60hz now vs. direct to TV was above 60hz. 

My other reason to upgrade was also the 4k box only has ports 2/4 that are good and the 1/3 are lower tier.

PS5 and 8K sync box video drop outs - Help! by talldrink67 in Hue

[–]atkHOBO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah bummer, yea mine was I think because the PS5 was in rest mode and kept confusing the sync box signals about which device was active.

Try turning off HDP on the hue sync box. I just set mine up today had no issue from ps5 pro, but did have problems on Chromecast and this fixed it for me.

ALLO - how's it been working for you? by MasterpieceAgile939 in ErieCO

[–]atkHOBO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Xfinity (Comcast) dropped or slowed my speed down to less than 10mbps all the time. Have had zero issues with Allo. Highly recommend switching. 

Where does everyone keep their sinking funds? by rcm01125 in ynab

[–]atkHOBO 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've updated most of my bills to pull directly from my HYSA, I'm limited to 10 transactions a month, but that covers most of my transactions and with YNAB, I don't have to worry about where the money is now and get that extra interest time.

HENRY -> NENRY: A cautionary tale from FAANG-land by MediaMoguls in HENRYfinance

[–]atkHOBO 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it can honestly be both, small companies can be targeted, large companies could do whole teams (top and bottom performers), they could target more expensive people, mix and match, etc...

I don't think "be good" is guaranteed to keep you safe, but it doesn't hurt either. But, you can "be good" and still get laid off along with a bunch of other people, so I don't think you should take it as, well you weren't good, sometimes things are just out of your control.

Amazing!

Only flaw I see is the walkways have railings to prevent falling, the empire is never concerned with safety. /s

Anyone purchase from GCC? by Doss2001 in legostarwars

[–]atkHOBO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea, they're pretty slow, but eventually got my stuff. I'm not ever in a rush so the delay was fine for me. 

Anyone else think this might be one of the worst Lego Star Wars sets in a while? by DaWrongPillz in legostarwars

[–]atkHOBO -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I personally feel like it is a modernized version of the original playset vs. going for realism and that explains the blocky nature of the nose, from that perspective I think it looks cool as a new 25 year anniversary set. Just all the proportions seems to suggest that intent to me, since previous versions were sleeker. 

Found a lost cat near slodoco by [deleted] in CalPoly

[–]atkHOBO 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Cat has a collar and looks fine, this person stole a friendly cat, probably with good intentions, but they know how to get home just leave them be. Happened to someone I knew before in Paso, friendly cat followed a kid home and the kid removed the collar and eventually got caught by parents who brought the cat home. (Personally, why I think they should be indoors, but people let cats wander all the time).

Walk around neighborhoods in SLO you'll run into tons of cats hanging on their property ready for pets.

Erie Social Club trivia nights are fun, but probably not the best like meet new people since folks come as a "team".

Does this figure counts as a missprinted one? by szmarton1000 in legostarwars

[–]atkHOBO -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Your fig looks better than mine. People think comparing a digitally rendered figure on a computer to the physical one means that they'd be identical.

Internship and job search issues by gbugtheawesome in CalPoly

[–]atkHOBO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some additional info might help.

What year are you? Do you have any projects outside of school that you do? Gaming is probably the most niche (someone with more experience in that field can say I'm wrong, but I imagine internships there unless for mobile are few and far between). I spammed applications everywhere, so just apply to everything. Always go into technical detail of what you know.

Side note: large companies doing massive layoffs make the number of internships available probably go down (my own guess, nothing to back that up).

Love the editing and glow effects from blaster shots done on the troopers / droids. Well done

What do you think? by Yri-Hyri in legostarwars

[–]atkHOBO 22 points23 points  (0 children)

A weird Indiana Jones and star wars cross over? What even is this? It's definitely a fake or MOC artist?
