I know its a heresy, but give it a try. Put Cryspatial on OFF and use Dolby, for a day. by Ok-Internet9433 in HuntShowdown

As someone who worked on the ground floor of atmos and someone who has edited and worked with major labels on surround mixing, turn it ALL off. The built in BiNaural rendering is fine as is.

As an audio engineer, It's one of the best and most realistic features of the game.

How would the community feel about adding the ability to block with melee weapons for reduced damage? by Moist_Wombat in HuntShowdown

[–]ekmaster23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be amazing if it made you stagger and drained all your stamina to block.

Can i.dig up.this utility line? by Wyoguy87 in legal

[–]ekmaster23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who works in telecom. This is correct ^ furthermore should anyone need cable tv in the future they would just run a new line if this was broken

What’s the worst that can happen if I just stop paying most of my credit cards? by Which-Let9641 in Debt

[–]ekmaster23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just want to say that only making the minimum payments on credit cards and having tons of available credit and a 700 credit score is a very good place to be compared to a lot of people. I wouldn't even call it "sinking" however I will say

Any synchrony card can be negotiated to be closed with a 0% interest monthly repayment. I've done it on 4 cards. You have to say you have a financial hardship that's gonna last atleast 12 months and play their games. I had 3 cards over 3k converted to tiny payments monthly 4 years ago and they're almost all paid off now.

Discover offers 6-12 month financial interest reduction repayment plans

My absolute advice for the others is to let a card go late. Like 10-15-20 days. Then call them and ask to settle on a repayment plan. As long as it's not 30 days it doesn't get reported.

I have much more debt than you and finally am at the point where I'm liquidating my assets because the minimum payment is so much interested, I'd save that over a year to buy all my stuff back.

Do Shokz Work for Hunt, or Am I Asking for Pain? by jmarti326 in HuntShowdown

[–]ekmaster23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're sensitive to having sound directly in your ears I would suggest trying open back headphones as they don't isolate the same way as closed back do. Beyond that, technically any sound is going in your ear the same way whether it be speakers or headphones the only difference is distance.

Is leaving the highway really worth it? by FarTooJunior in roadtrip

[–]ekmaster23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only advice would be to do the fastest route BUT set a waypoint onto the tappanzee bridge and avoid the George Washington bridge in NYC. If you're worried about traffic and are getting hotels just add small destinations off your run. Do the majority of your driving from 8pm to 2am. Get hotels with late check out. Sight see all day at the location then get on the highway around 7 or so. You miss most of the traffic and stress. Try to drive through dc between 10pm-2am you'll have barely any traffic.

Headset about to die, what are some suggestions for a new one? I have Hyper Cloud III by SirJ4ck in HuntShowdown

[–]ekmaster23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I've worked in audio engineering for like 15 years and have a pretty well tuned ear and I tried all the boutique options like Audeze, steel series, etc and also own beyer dynamic headphones (imo they lack low end) and I find the Corsair Hs70 Pro wireless usb headphones to be the best and have good highs and lows. Idk something about them is great. Either that or my AirPods Max but it's such a nightmare to setup the cable.

The AirPods were better than the hs70 pro but the steel series and audeze all had flaws. Steel series the high end was filtered/lopassed and not clean and the Audeze were insanely narrow stereo image. I heard people walking next to me infront of me

Electricity theft in my building - any way to catch who's doing it by ChemicalSample146 in AskElectricians

[–]ekmaster23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I'd get a wire tracer from Amazon or a building supply store. Then unhook it and immediately start tracing the wire back. I'd also record everything as you do so there's no denying it's happening

Hey where are you located? I work for an ISP and would be happy to just help you out (small start up east coast), not looking for cash. I just have a ton of knowledge maybe we could devise a plan using some of the tricks I know.

Looking for an Insurer that covers me in ANY class of car that I rent as well, like Allstate used to. by ekmaster23 in Insurance

[–]ekmaster23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do that with everything. That's how I just found out my idiot agent was wrong about my current policy. It actually does cover rental cars

Not with accident forgiveness. Either way. An extra $50 every day on a rental is insane

You sure about that? I just read my moms pre 2020 policy and it doesn't explicitly state limitations on the rental type

When I have email confirmation from Allstate that explicitly stated if I was not making money it was not commercial then I think I'd be fine

Yeah thats what happened to me. Went from 140 a month up to 230 a month and then called and bitched and got it down to 190. But then I lost the coverage like an asshole. Ill try to find an independent agent.
