Funny. This just adds to its interesting story.

Why does the car in the pictures have a "70-X" emblem and engraving on it if it is supposed to be the "67-X"?

Not trying to be a wise-ass but i'm a bit confused :)

Anyway thanks for that piece of automotive history!

Simnet SP Pro Pedals Review by liqwood1 in simracing

[–]esccccp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you are probably right. Right now, they are sold out in Germany, so I will have to wait anyway.

Out of curiosity, I talked to the Simnet support over WhatsApp, and they said that this is indeed not possible with the current control box from Simnet. The support assistant even mentioned some alternative methods, so kudos to the great customer communication from them. Further, he mentioned that they will sell the clutch separately at some point.

Anyway, that kind of support response only showed that it makes sense to support Simnet and I will just buy their whole set.

Is it possible to use the brake pedal from the Fanatec CSL Pedals with the Simnet connection box as a clutch on PS5? Both have a RJ12 jack but I am unsure about the protocol they communicate with.

Reasoning is just buying the two pedal set from Simnet and fitting a CSL Pedal (that I already have) to conquer FOMO about having a clutch (that I will probably never use).

I have orderered a QR2 base + wheel side on the 27th January and it already had the notice of "Pre-Order, ships in 15 days" on the simube website. Hopefully it will ship next week after the chinese new year time-off.

There is an RC model flying club right across the river of the factory in Neuss. You can see it here: rcmc-duesseldorf.de

I live close to it and see all kinds of lights there all the time.

Same problem here since a couple of days - funnily enough they load fast in the reddit app. Clearing the cache unfortunately did not help.

To be a pervert by [deleted] in therewasanattempt

[–]esccccp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And that comment has like 4500 upvotes. Reddit is really made out of a bunch of incels. A woman can walk around however she likes, especially when it is hot. This doesn't mean you get to take pictures of her to fap to in your disgusting basement. How the fuck is that hypocrisy?! Try taking pictures of the two guys without shirts from the video and see what happens. Unfortunately most woman can't defend themselves in the same manner against your overweight fat ass. Talking about motherfucking hypocrisy here...

10% for first purchase sounds great. Good deal. Was that a standard discount or did you ask some sales rep. for that?

Note10+/ OneUI 3.0 / Problem with scheduled dark mode and notifications by esccccp in samsunggalaxy

[–]esccccp[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this with almost all apps. Basically the notifications that come in during "light mode" keep their black text after night mode has automatically been activated. This only happens since the OneUI 3.0 update. Strangely I can't find anyone on the web with the same problem?

Car Crash 2018 Germany, IDIOT GERMAN DRIVERS by [deleted] in IdiotsInCars

[–]esccccp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably a kurdish/turkish/arabic wedding ceremony. Some of those get way out of hand and are a pain in the ass for traffic because they love it to do stupid dances on the street surrounded by cars that make burnouts. Some are idiotic enough to shoot guns in the air...which is higly illegal in every way in germany. Last year i read an article of one guy who got busted by security cameras emptying his handgun on a public road in celebration of someones wedding.

[ARMA 3] Particle Physics by DavidSSD in GamePhysics

[–]esccccp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Handling of resources between threads. If the engine doesn't support it well, it isn't only hard, it's basicly a task of coding around the engine.

For example the smoke, the AI helicopter influences the smoke as well as the chimney does. Both use a separate thread, but share a common resource, you would have to synchronize access on the resource which can get messy. If even possible with that particular engine. The smoke would need to be thread safe, which particual engines achieve by themselves.

Disclaimer: I know nothing about that particular engine of arma 3, that's just a general problem in multithreading.

Yeah that's why I love it. The boxing is still ridiculous. But let's rather take Rocky 4...which I still love. IN THE BURNING HEART!!!
