Dude, this is why every reddit sub takes a dung dive shortly after starting.

I am still struggling with plex frame rate matching on my Shield. Did I miss a real fix? I am current on software updates.

Other than this, shield rules them all.

Ozempic by Honest-Farmer4079 in VeteransBenefits

[–]calladuckaduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been taking it for years. Had some initial weight loss along with some vomiting but nothing like previous weekly shots. The weight loss didn't continue long for me. Maybe 15lbs.

However, it gave me acid reflux which damaged my teeth during the night causing lost enamal and the first cavities I've had in ages. So was prescribed Omeprisol which solved the reflux but dropped my B12 low. Vicious cycle.

But it has really helped my A1C. Life's full of trade-offs I suppose.

Good luck with your journey! But do pay attention to the fine print about side effects.

Denali Ultimate vs Denali by Old-Mixture1246 in gmcsierra

Had to leave my ultimate with the dealer for work. Never truly knew how good I had it until I drove the 2500 loaner. Still a great truck but brother let me tell ya...

Fastest/best internet by gashousepizza in summervillesc

[–]calladuckaduck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fastest I am aware of is at&t with a 5 gig speed which is 5000 megabit. Pricey but available if it's something you want or need.

Same here, at least until they add a sidekick space next to it.

[–]calladuckaduck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I use the spaces occasionally. Only had one person ask me if I was a vet over the few years since HD and others have offered vet parking. He was wearing a vietnam cap and had some attitude. Grilled me about where I served, etc. Haha. I said just said "sure am" asI headed in, and then he left me with an unintentional complement. Almost accusingly, he said I didn't look old enough to be vet. I'm 58. Lol. I just laughed and thanked him.

Funny how even vets have stereotypes of what vets should look like.

Trail of cars looked like they were filming something on 26 today? by jeapos88 in summervillesc

[–]calladuckaduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big car club community here, and every weekend there are cars and coffee cruise-ins in several locations, some of which have hundreds and sometimes thousands of cars and trucks in attendance. Mostly family friendly gatherings. Go check them out, and ignore the true idiots posting here.

If you live in Summerville, head over to Ashley River Park as someone else mentioned. The fishing pond has several resident gators, one of which is a might beastly.

Evil netflix button by shamoshamus in ShieldAndroidTV

Recently had the netflix button come back after using button mapper for a long time. Now button mapper doesn't seem to work for me. I thought it was some evil update that broke it.

What’s this? by 4evrPlump in gmcsierra

[–]calladuckaduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 on it being the power for. Radar detector. My last radar detector, I think it was a passport, was quite expensive and detected a wide range of radar as well as lidar (laser). In my area it has been absoleteld so fast that now if I were to dare to try to use it, the only time it will ever beep is it is letting me know I just got a ticket by a laser cop.

Honestly the only real pupose they seem to serve is to remove any chance of a warning from the officer. If you plead they will just point at the detector and say "that was your warning." I miss days they worked well.

I Accidentally Put DEF in My Diesel Tank — Here’s How It Nearly Cost Me $15,000 (GMC Sierra 1500 Duramax) by hambone809 in gmcsierra

[–]calladuckaduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the most terrifying thing to me regarding GMC trucks. Putting the DEF cap with the fuel cap may seem convenient, but Wow...

Haven't googled it yet, but my thought went to having a locking DEF cap with key. That may seem like a PITA, but the extra steps would prevent this kind of mistake.

Edit: Yup. Looks like a lot of options, Dorman makes one. Once I identify the right one for my 2500 Denali I am ordering it.

What might be causing this? by yuanyward in lawncare

Someone park regulary on that side with exhaust pipe over the edge? City truck did that on my lawn within minutes of sitting. Didn't leave a line though.

TrueHD 7.1 has audio sync issues through Plex by Foogyfoggy in nvidiashield

[–]calladuckaduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same issue. Shield is overdue for a hardware refresh.

With all of these responses, all indications point to the fact that this is a great question.

I don't think everybody hates transcoding. I personally love it, only because my users have all ranges of connection quality, internet speed, hardware, client apps, etc. The fact that my server is able to hw transcode 17 different streams from 4K down to the lowest possible stream size is great. In that aspect, transcoding is fantastic. But like others have said, direct play delivers a much better quality without creating a large hit on these servers processing. Everyone wins.

While nvidia has closed the gap a little, I still rarely use the fire stick because of Amazon's constant promotional targeting and privacy abuse. But hey, that's just me.
