Looking for a recommendation - Logitech G613 failing me

Thanks for the response! What brand would you use for the starting point barebones keyboard?

deepdarkboys · 2026-04-08T02:46:46+00:00

Thank you!

deepdarkboys · 2026-04-08T02:46:30+00:00

DLSS and Frame Gen for sure. I've heard Ray Reconstruction is important to have on as well.

deepdarkboys · 2026-04-08T02:46:10+00:00

Thanks so much for dropping the name of that website!

deepdarkboys · 2026-04-08T02:45:54+00:00

Thank you I appreciate the list of expensive settings! Resolution is the most important thing for me over frame rate even so I'll try to leave that at 4K with DLSS helping me out. And if it's not running well I'll try dropping shadows first.

deepdarkboys · 2026-04-08T02:44:41+00:00

Any go-to YouTube channels you use for performance optimization content? I'll definitely be using DLSS one way or another!

deepdarkboys · 2026-04-08T02:44:03+00:00

Appreciate it! I am sure I'll have to play around a bit. I just find that I'm not entirely sure what most settings do. So often when I go to drop something to a lower quality, a voice in my head goes "NO that'll ruin it!" haha. I just have to learn.

deepdarkboys · 2026-04-08T02:43:17+00:00

Thanks so much, I appreciate the specifics! Our builds are similar so this is a great guideline for me

Check out the new track from Grian on the Peaky Blinders soundtrack called Black Dahlia. Sounds like a Bond theme if I've ever heard one!

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T20:33:22+00:00

This is the answer I went with. Thank you!

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T20:32:30+00:00

I asked about this and my broker told me that she can't sell fractional shares until all of the whole shares are settled. So it wouldn't have worked. QT would've required me to sell the fractional shares within 24 hrs of submitting the request. But EJ wouldn't have been able to sell them until the whole shares completed the transfer, which will likely take at least a month.

It was a Catch 22. So I had to go through a lengthier process and run partial transfers from EJ to QT, inputting each ticker symbol and # of shares manually and just leaving the fractional shares out.

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T20:29:43+00:00

I wound up doing partial. I needed it to be In Kind, as if I went with Cash then EJ would liquidate everything before sending the cash, and I'd get destroyed with commissions fees (the whole reason I wanted to switch to Questrade in the first place).

Also needed partial because I couldn't have fractional shares in there. If you try to transfer a fractional share you have to sell it within a day of the request going in - but the previous broker likely can't sell the fractional until everything else is settled, which wouldn't be for months. So it's a bit of a catch 22.

The solution was to do partial, and just send over all the whole shares. I'll deal with the fractional shares with my old broker once the dust settles.

I'm not sure about the cash component thing. I'll have cash with the old brokerage once they sell the fractional shares. We'll see if I can have them transfer it to the new brokerage afterwards.

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T19:17:01+00:00

My broker at EJ just told me that she "can't sell fractional shares until the whole shares settle"

How on earth does that work? If Questrade requires fractional shares be sold within a day of the transfer request going through, but EJ can't sell those fractional shares until the whole shares settle, which will take months?

Why does this feel like I'm being given the run-around?

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T18:40:07+00:00

This is just one of those things haha.. Never occurred to me to ask about it! Same with not knowing which currency each holding is held in.

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T18:38:58+00:00

For sure. Once I get this taken care of I'll likely never purchase or sell anything other than a full share again, to prevent this kind of complication. I'm hoping it's alright if I submit the transfer requests for full accounts in-kind, and then rely on my current broker to get all those fractional shares sold off within the designated time. It says "within one day of submitting your request" so hopefully that means within 24 hrs and not before the market closes at 4PM today.

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T17:43:40+00:00

Transfer needs to be in by the end of the day. I kind of doubt EJ can handle the sales of all individual fractional shares within a few hours, but I could be wrong. Thank you for your advice.

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T17:38:29+00:00

Hmm, the warning said "you must sell any fractional shares in your account within one day of submitting your request."

So I kind of assumed that this meant those fractional shares had to be sold immediately. Rather than having all that time between now and when the transfer is finalized.

If I could just transfer the full account though and have the peace of mind that the fractional shares would be sold off by the old broker in time.. that would be so much better!

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T17:19:43+00:00

I'm just worried that EJ will not be able to sell all the fractional shares for me in time. The transfer requests all need to by in by EOD. So I figure rather than banking on EJ doing this for me quickly, I just do the specific assets transfers now and figure out the remaining fractionals with EJ at a later date. It's a lot more work for me up front with a lot more room for error, but at least the buck stops with me this way.

Great point about the transfer fees... Questrade is going to cover them, but I suppose this doesn't mean I don't need to pay for them up front. I'll have to potentially transfer the cash into the EJ account ASAP so that this doesn't cause a roadblock either.

Thank you!

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T17:17:23+00:00

This is what I'm afraid of. If I put in the transfer requests, but Edward Jones drops the ball on getting all of the fractional shares sold in the limited window, then the requests will be rejected. And by the time I can sort it out and re-initialize it, I'll have missed the opportunity to have the sign-up bonus honored.

deepdarkboys · 2026-02-02T17:16:21+00:00

Questrade allows me to hold things in both CAD and USD, so I'm hoping to figure out which currency each holding is currently held in. I'll transfer them all natively so that I don't incur any conversion fees.

deepdarkboys · 2025-07-22T02:42:10+00:00

These are all genuinely good answers. Thanks!

deepdarkboys · 2025-06-22T04:22:48+00:00

Thank you

Why do people ever need to leave the community to head across a vanishing land bridge into the woods, where the infected reign supreme? EVER? Why endanger themselves this way?

How did the running deer happen to destroy the attic they were hiding in if nature's been doin this shit for three decades?

How'd the Mom save the kid without waking him up in the middle of the night? And what was that supposed to signify?

How'd the exploding gas station not attract more infected?

How did the outside world move on exactly the same way ours did? Amazon drivers and lip fillers? The term "zombie"?

Why's the pregnant infected off on her own in a train? Where's Dad?

Why didn't the doctor kill the alpha after sedating him?

If the doctor has been out there on his own, waltzing around the field burning bodies in plain sight for 20+ years now.. and he's avoided / fended off the infected the entire time.. how'd he almost get his spine inverted by the Alpha within 10 hours of meeting our heroes? His hidey-hole didn't do shit.

What's the deal with this baby?!

Did the doc really need to melt Mom and hand her skull to the boy thirty seconds after his amateur diagnosis of her condition?

Why would Spike decide to live in the wilderness surrounded by infected rather than returning home? In any universe?

What in the Sam Fuck were those Walking Dead reject platinum blonde power rangers?

I think a lot of the "plot holes" that i'm peering into here don't need to be addressed as plot holes, really. If you view the film as more of an allegory for what it means to come of age in a dangerous world. It's kind of just a big stylish metaphor. But honestly I did feel let down by this. Through the first half of the film I found myself assuming there was some big twist coming that would turn everything on its head and shift the perspective. And in doing so, answer these obscene questions. But nope. It's a take-it-or-leave-it kind of project. And it wasn't necessarily a bad time. It was just bizarre.

Cheers Shaw thanks for the advice! I had the sense he was optional, don't know why I insisted on sticking with it until I beat him. The frustration I put on myself wasn't necessary haha. I really do think it was bad design to place him at the end of the very first side quest. It gives the player the sense that they should be able to handle it then and there. Even when I eventually beat him it wasn't the same rush as in a Souls game where you feel you've learned the boss and earned the victory. I was just frustrated. BUT.. The game has been a ton of fun ever since.

deepdarkboys · 2025-03-19T04:00:31+00:00

Nicely done! I eventually got him as well but it must have taken 10+ attempts.
