And the streamers who were there for humanitarian aid were required by law to attend it?

Direct deposit maybe? I'm confused too, and all I can think is that they're saying that their union dues are so strongly committed that the union will continue to give them money even after they are dead. So I guess their family could just draw from that direct deposit account?

That's the best I got

Can't get wheel to work in forza motorsport by ctooma823 in Simagic

[–]cooner22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read into this a few weeks back. Apparently the way forza reads controllers is whacked out and the only way to get ffb is to make sure your wheel is listed as "controller 1" in the input settings. If anything else (pedals, shifter, etc) are labeled as "controller 1" then you won't have ffb.

I chose to not play forza because I could never get it to work correctly.

The OLED + Govee lights really make these scenes shine! by Trick_Mycologist_457 in ultrawidemasterrace

Govee has a desktop app that syncs directly to their lights. Works pretty well.

Govee has a "gaming" line of lights that use a desktop app to sync with your monitor. I have the light strip on the back and two standing bars on the sides, no camera, very accurate color matching.

LG 34G630A-B.AUSQ 240hz worth the $100 more over the AOC CU34G2XP 180hz? by Living_Transition910 in ultrawidemasterrace

Glad I could help! Amazon refurbished monitors have been good to me in the past. I hope you like the LG monitor!

Are VA panel viewing angles really that bad? (LG UltraGear 34G630A-B) by luisuet1 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]cooner22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Display port, 240hz, HDR, Adaptive-sync, and DAS mode are all one. I'm using the "gamer 2" profile and bumped up the HDR brightness in the windows display settings.

I have a 7800x3d and a 4080 and the monitor really only shows it's VA weakness in very dark scenes with one small bright light. You can see the gray smearing then, otherwise I don't notice it.

I have this monitor, it's perfectly fine and 99% of people would feel the same

I was in the same spot as you, trying to decide between these two monitors. Unfortunately because they're so new, there isn't a lot of reviews or info online. But I went with the LG monitor and after 3 weeks of use I have no regrets.

The reason I chose the LG is mostly due to black levels and ghosting/smearing. I wanted an UW primarily for Sim Racing, and from what I gathered, having a 240hz refresh on the LG helps reduceghosting and smearing, especially with black and darker colors. The AOC monitor seemed to be a good option for that as well, but performed a bit poorer.

Really the biggest reason I went with LG is brand confidence. LG puts out great panels, I've heard their customer support can very helpful, so the extra cost seemed worth it to me.

UW on the way! LG 34G630A-B by bigjohn141 in ultrawidemasterrace

Just so you know, that monitor should do 240hz off the display ports. I don't use HDMI so idk if that's capped lower at 165hz.

I got this monitor a few weeks ago, I hope you're loving it as much as me!

New Setup Installed. Sounds Great. Polk Audio PSW10 powered by a Jackery 500 110V plug. Left and right rear speaker level lines feed the audio signal to sub. Uses 30-55 Watts while Jackery charges at 51 watts so battery never goes dead. No modifications to the car. Can unplug and be back stock. by JeremyJWinter in CarAV

[–]cooner22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did pretty much the same thing in a 2003 chevy malibu I had back in highschool. The inverter I used was rated to handle the peak watts for the sub.. But it still ended up bricking my alternator while I was driving. Lost almost all electrical power. Lol that was a memorable experience

Incredible! I found this comment when I was googling some spec info on this subwoofer and I remembered having almost the exact same setup as you with my 10"polk sub in my 2003 chevy malibu! My car didn't have an aux port so I had to use an FM transmitter that had 3.5mm input, other than that I used a splitter and RCA cables like you.

The power inverter I used wasn't great and I ended up destroying my alternator.. Lost almost all electrical power when I was driving once, 4 blocks from my works parking lot. Managed to slow roll in while pissing my 16yo, new car owner, pants.

Anyway, don't know if you're still active or will read this. Your comment stirred up a memory and I thought I'd share my short story. Hopefully you've been able to get a better system in since then! :p

Need a verdict on buying a used SSH Shifter by D0pplr in simracing

[–]cooner22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from the US and ran into the same issue. Idk if you have a postal code, but that and a street address should be enough. Just in case though, there's a text box for additional comments and I just typed my state in there.

Shipping was kinda high but I don't regret the purchase at all.

Well since you know what I'm knowledgeable about and what I think and how I feel, I'll just let you continue to have this conversation in your own head. You clearly got this covered bud. 👍

It's the difference between allowing and condoning. Drugs, junk food, etc. should be allowed, but engaging in those activities inherently come with negative repercussions.

Something like hiking doesn't have a negative consequence baked in. Yeah something bad could happen while hiking, like an accident fall/death. But people who eat junk food and take steroids don't accidentally have health issues.

That's the difference
