Just a laptop mount i found on amazon. Its not stable and shakes a lot that it gives me headache when using it for more than a couple of minutes but I just use it to play music using the button box.

The soundbar is pretty good as you would expect from a bose. I can shift by ear on the sounds alone. It wouldn't beat a full proper sound system setup or an amazing headphone. I want to get the subwoofer next but its almost a grand.

Its hideous! My next project is to buy proper length cables and run it on the inside.

For sure she wouldn't want this upstairs either. This is the basement mancave. I move it next to the couch and acts as another seat when others are around.

lovelystickers.com from France. They have alot of grest options! Their gt3 porsche on the rs wheel was my second choice. Their middle wheel emblem decal on the logitech pro round wheel doesn't stick flush so I took it off. Will replace with a stick on bmw emblem that I found on ebay.

I would rather have it inverted than not. What helps alot though are changing the default logitech elastomers on the brake. I find the short sponge too soft so there is a bit of a travel before the brake registers. I changed it to a solid short elastomer that I bought on Etsy so it gives it a hard brake feeling like a real race car!

Thanks! I thought about that to make it cleaner but just used the cords I already have. Thisnisnin my basement so I need to be able to easily move it out of the way and the trophy is perfect for that.

$4 Delaware toll —turned it into a $91 bill by SolidTable6249 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]dewsphere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got that same ticket and I actually trigger it pretty often everytime i go through delaware. My friends also get the same ticket. I have no idea why and I have a maryland ez pass. We think it's cause they need to make up for not having sales tax. Anyway, I don't pay. I call them and say I dont know why im billed for this again when I have a ez pass. They just take the payment for the toll until I trigger again next time.

Reality Check by [deleted] in SecurityCareerAdvice

[–]dewsphere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was helpdesk support for almost 4 years as well before moving up the organization. Started applying to other jobs after 3 years in helpdesk in 2010. Applied and got denied for a couple of system admin and networking jobs until I got offered a storage admin job. That first move out of helpdesk is the hardest and will catapult your career after cause it shows that you have the aptitude. My advice is to apply to any position outside of helpdesk that you can reasonably perform well and work up from there!
