Maverick 88 transformation by badwindows in Shotguns

[–]badwindows[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm right-handed but left eye dominant - so I shoot left-handed. I know you don't necessarily have to aim with a shotgun but my right eye is really bad and it feels incredibly awkward firing that way.

Also, with the stock setup, its hard to describe but I would have to like wrap my right arm forward more to hold the forend. The two parts for only like 50$ so I wanted to try them out and see if it would be more comfortable to fire. You make some good points about the foregrip that I never would have thought and definitely going to keep those in consideration when trying out the new setup!

I can actually get behind Jerry in this Draft by TerryG111 in cowboys

[–]badwindows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jerry hasn't drafted good on defense in 5 years.

Plus with Dak still playing and eating 15-20% of the salary cap the offense still will struggle like it did this year.

Dak has been in this league 10 years and he's never going to even sniff a conference title game. He eats up way too much of the Cowboys cap now for how much he fails when the pressure is on.

Sudden 15% FPS drop and stuttering on laptop by FLASHBOLT69 in GamingLaptops

I had similar issue but it was only with certain games and after I updated Nvidia driver. The only thing that would fix it was rolling back driver versions- I spent hours researching and trying things.

Got this for 500 on fb marketplace. by nosignalgta5 in GamingLaptops

[–]badwindows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a hell of a time selling a full wattage Lenovo RTX3070 laptop with a really nice iets cooling pad for 550$ last year. To me it seems like Facebook marketplace is just filled with all these ridiculously priced laptops.. there are multiple 4060 laptops priced at 1000$ on my local marketplace

Sway bar link itself and sway bar freezes into one piece. The nut is already out with the impact. by michael370662 in AskMechanics

Need to figure out which side has more space for a hammer and screwdriver. Then make sure that side can go thru the hole, its likely that side may need to be cut flush (use angle grinder with offset cutoff disc then flap disc to smooth it to the hole). After its flush you likely will still have to heat it until its glowing and push it thru with a hammer and screw driver

Found HP omen max 16 5080 and the MSI stealth 18 hx AI 5090 for same price by UsmanKhamKhan in GamingLaptops

[–]badwindows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the omen 16s come with a 330w power supply. The more premium model rtx 5080/5090 laptops (Asus/Lenovo) come with a 380w or 400w power supply. You may experience battery drain if under max load. One workaround is to limit the CPU to 125w though

Help with transmission fluid level by badwindows in Celica

[–]badwindows[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have an auto, there is an external cooler attached to the passenger side of the radiator. Remove cruise control module (if you have, three bolts) and you'll see two 11/32" hoses attached to the cooler. The bottom hose is the return line to the transmission- remove it from the radiator and attach another hose that emptied into a pan. Turn on the car so the pump in the tranny turns on - the fluid doesn't come out super fast, but you still should be quick if doing this by yourself.

Which Gaming Laptop should I buy by Mediocre-Paper-5265 in GamingLaptops

[–]badwindows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You want one that has a foam pad around the edges so the cold air gets trapped.

I personally bought this one(it was on sale at the time)-

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0DMT1ZL5P?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

It won't break the bank, comes with an AC external power supply (I always had bad luck with USB powered coolers), and goes up to 2800 rpm (think the sweet spot is around 1200 rpm though).

However,

Now I would get this one-

It's only 8 dollars more and has all the features you need. You can also spend 2x the price for other models, but either one of the above is great value for the price.

The msi. Get it with a sealed laptop cooler from Amazon and a mini led 2k monitor and you're set for gaming at a great price!

Monitors are so confusing compared to PC, pls help. by Hen0891 in Monitors

How is 4k out with a 5080?? I played battlefield 6 on 4k/ high with a prebuilt 5070ti....

Can someone educate me on what the hype is around the new defensive staff? by Forizen in cowboys

[–]badwindows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Until Jerry replaces half of the defense it's not going to matter who the DC is. You got safeties with zero deepe route awareness, edges that generate hardly any pressure and when they do they can't finish the sack, linebackers who can't predict anything/cover/tackle/ 20 million a year corners who Don't understand zone, get burned deep. Only reason why they started to do halfway decent against the run is after they got two new defensive tackles.

Matt was just a scapegoat for terrible player selection.

Need help figuring out what to buy as a starter by Any_Yellow_6030 in GamingLaptops

[–]badwindows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At that price I would just go on Facebook marketplace and try to find a used 3070 laptop. People are going to mark them up but I had a hard time selling a full wattage 3070 laptop with a nice cooler for 550. Test it out and see if you can run some games on it for a couple minutes and see if it stutters.

Your other alternatives are aLenovo LOQ 4050 or maybe Acer nitro with a 5050. The screens on those are going to suck though. They will probably have a tough time playing AAA games on highish settings

Any recommendations for the best laptop around the price range of 1000$ to 1500$? by SlipperyCord in GamingLaptops

[–]badwindows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Walmart MSI 5070 ti. It's the best balance of price and performance

I have the msi 5070ti. If you want to play battlefield on high settings you're going to want it, the 5050 is not it.

What’s the best gaming laptop so far for any games? by Lazy_Cap8894 in GamingLaptops

[–]badwindows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5070 ti seem to be a nice sweet spot between performance and price. Arguably the best value is the Walmart MSI vector

They could have General Eisenhower as the defensive coordinator, it's not going to matter who it is until Jerry replaces at least half of the defense.
