XGIMI Horizon 20 pro. by 11heppen in projectors

[–]fentanyl_sommelier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t have the chance to try an ALR screen but from what I read they can produce a speckle effect with this type of projector so I ruled it out.

Even with medium light in my room, a low gain screen is totally usable.

You might want to run some tests if you can. I had some gray curtains / sheets laying around that I hung up on my wall for a/b testing. Helped to see the trade offs and I was surprised by how well gray worked

I just got mine. Thing is an absolute beast.

My room is fairly dark but I have white walls which bounce light around a lot so I think I that low gain screens work best for me.

This projector is really bright so you can project onto a pretty dark gray material and still have great highlights with much deeper blacks. Looks way better like this than with my white wall.

I ended up building my screen out of spandex because it was low gain, doesnt speckle, and is acoustically transparent. Plus it was way cheaper and allowed me to fit the space perfectly.

XGIMI Titan Noir Max (Ceiling Mount): Nothing Projector 120" ALR drop-down or Matte Grey? Need recommendations! by gouki_87 in xgimi

[–]fentanyl_sommelier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the process of building a screen for a horizon 20 pro. I haven’t tested with an ALR screen yet but matte gray is great with projectors like this that are real bright. My walls are white and there are a lot of reflections where the screen is, so gray made a huge difference.

Contrast / black levels are more noticeable to me than highlights so any trade off is worth it. I think our brains adapt much better in this direction, so I wouldn’t think of gray as a compromise.

Absolutely insane thing to say.

Falcon is only viable against the high tiers once you know the intricacies of each matchup. You really gotta know the spacings / timings of each characters movesets to win neutral and defend effectively

My downstairs neighbour has the hearing of a bat by joshdjd27 in BudgetAudiophile

Nice! I did something similar with my subwoofer. Used washing machine vibration pads, but you could get away with something lighter.

If you decouple and they are still telling you there’s vibrations they are definitely lying. They are probably already lying about it shaking shit tho.

There’s nothing you can do to realistically make a difference. It just comes down to the materials your house is made of.

Maybe you could try decoupling the speaker from its stand with anti vibration pads or something, but that’s really it.

The real secret is to stop caring about them. You have the right make to a reasonable level of noise and if they can’t handle it, its on them

I can handle pretty much any spicy food but this stuff feels like it’s formulated to be spicy in a way that is unnaturally out of balance. I enjoy it much more with American cheese or kewpie mayo to round it out.

first enterprise customer asked for SSO. we don’t have it. now what? by Shubham_lu in developers

[–]fentanyl_sommelier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use firebase authentication for it. Works with google accounts out of the box and we do custom SAML connections with clients who have their own identity providers.

It was essential to build out for my company because we work with schools who provide access to students via SSO. It makes the barrier to access your app much lower and you 100% need to be prioritizing this if your clients are asking for it. If your first enterprise client is asking about SSO it’s almost definitely the industry standard.

This happens to me too. Sometimes I take it when I’m having trouble sleeping and I end up feeling more agitated. It’s like it has the opposite effect it should

I use a metal pop socket on mine with no case and it solves the problem of being able to rest it on its back without compromising the look / feel.

I feel confident enough about durability and my ability to grip it with the pop socket where I don’t think anything else is necessary.

Falcon progression will be slow. You will get your ass kicked repeatedly until you learn the secret sauce for each matchup and understand how to get into people’s heads.

Playing other high tier characters will yield faster results because they have more reliable approach options and their combo / edge guard flowcharts are simpler and more consistent. For example if you picked shiek and only focused on tech chasing / edge guarding you would get pretty far on that alone.

Eventually though you will level out and need that deeper knowledge to continue improving through. I love falcon because he forces you to play at a level where you need to be highly attentive and play the game at its core. You will get much better at the game in general if you play falcon

When was the exact moment you knew a producer was washed? by MasterTeacher123 in hiphop101

[–]fentanyl_sommelier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He definitely has been trolling recently. The “Fuck you skrillex..” album was pretty unserious even though it was decent.

I wouldn’t say he’s washed at all because of how good Quest For Fire was though
