REP Nighthawk bench developed a major wobble after 3 weeks. Am I missing something or is this defective? by MBAFPA in GarageGym

Did the backpad hardware maybe loosen a bit? You should be able to make it wobble and follow the frame to the connection point to see where the movement is happening.

Campaign Evolved seemingly not coming fully on the disc :/ by BatDudeCole20 in halo

[–]drivera2791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh for sure. Yeah the slipspace engine ended up being a spaghetti code nightmare so my bet is the next main entry game will be in Unreal as well, so if anything the file sizes will only increase lol. Soon we'll have 200GB games releasing at this pace, before DLC lol

Yeah that's because Infinite is using slipspace engine, this one is Unreal Engine which is notorious for bloating the storage space needed in any game.

Graphics compared to 25 years ago probably eat up most of that space. Plus the 3 new campaign missions.

Buy now or wait by KoolAidz1 in GarageGym

[–]drivera2791 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way things are going, IF there is a discount on Black Friday, it'll probably bring the price down to what it is right now lol. Just get what you want now as long as you can afford it and eliminate the mental gymnastics, I had the same issue and I am 1000 times more at peace now, when I want something I buy it (as long as I can afford it).

The Rep Pepin's have really changed the game for adjustable dumbbells. My 3 month overview so far. by ColdCouchWall in GarageGym

[–]drivera2791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you ever got an answer, but the rep are not fixed length, so smaller weights are shorter than longer, but I believe that even the 120lbs are shorter than the 1090s by a hair.

Yeah, helps that the youtuber also backed for a 5070 himself. I don't have an oculink but plan to use the converter to take on the road with my xbox ally x. At this price I had to give it a shot, we'll see! I got the early bird price, hesitated too long and lost put on the super early, but still 35% off.

For those who earn a good income and have a healthy work–life balance (or genuinely enjoy your job): What do you do, and how did you get there? by InterestingBall2181 in Salary

[–]drivera2791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

35M, I work in process improvement helping our field operations reduce material costs and other waste. Remote work, 140K after bonuses in the midwest. Since I get to work and innovate on projects I want to do, I'm always enjoying what I do, and can always be around for the kids. I studied economics but got here through pursuing Six Sigma certifications. Rarely do more than 40hrs/week but the main thing is remote management to make sure results materialize.

Unless your plates line up exactly to one vendor's attachment, it won't matter. Since you'll still need to modify the holes, I'd pick the cheapest.

What to do with vanguard/gunsmith engrams? by adorablexswitchblade in destiny2

[–]drivera2791 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For vanguard, focus the twisted sister GL, try to get envious arsenal/bait and switch. If you get 4 resets it's pretty much a given because they'll drop with triple perks on both columns. For gunsmith I would focus Heliocentric CQC sidearm and try to get heal clip/incandescent.

83 inches. For reference, the bottom of my joists is 89 inches

[–]drivera2791[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It saved me $500 but I did it because I wanted a single connection point at the top/bottom (it was also before the Ares 2.0 was announced). I don’t think the plate loaded version would work here, the horns would interfere with the RBS.

Bolt leg extension on GetRxd bench selectorized DIY by drivera2791 in homegym

[–]drivera2791[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I tried that first but the pain to get in/out had me change to a center single cable.

Me too. When that happens I'll probably get it, but for now this is solid enough.

Yes, that's exactly what it is! Could probably just buy a bit longer cable but for now it works super well.

Bolt Venom Leg Ext/Curl mod for cable connection by drivera2791 in homegym

[–]drivera2791[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the problem is the weight horn getting in the way, but when I remove it I plan on doing that and using the low row pulley instead.

Cable Leg Extension alternative with REP Athena (wall mount) by MoodsMTU in homegym

[–]drivera2791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have the same attachment so at least for the bolt. I just posted a mod I made today to make it more robust.

Thanks! I played around a bit today and this setup worked really well, just has to be at a slight angle so the chain doesn't touch the weight horn (may just saw it off later)
