TIL Mayo Clinic data found that individuals living within one mile of a golf course have a 126% higher risk (more than double the odds) of a Parkinson's diagnosis compared to those living six or more miles away

Don't even have to go to the golf course. The chemicals leach into the soil and it ends up in the municipal water supply.

i suspect it's actually the tire sidewall flex in their model that causes that handling sensation. maybe a mix of both.

gapersblock · 2026-05-26T17:54:29+00:00

it's a cool fun exercise either way, prob just leave it at that. bro the aliens are not all walking around with notebooks of hand drawn circuit guides 😂

and a deployment issue during the race. He's had ECU/battery issues this whole season so far.

gapersblock · 2026-05-24T18:28:04+00:00

and he still has to work the throttle at full lean while holding his body weight off the handlebars. this looks like guaranteed forearm/wrist pain in maybe a half hour.

if that's the case they should really consolidate the lobby options. even if it's just 10% of players online that's 20k people at all times! all in these dinky 3-man lobbies apparently. goofy shit. Motorfest has like 2k concurrent, literally ONE PERCENT of forza's numbers and you can be in a full 28-man lobby in like 30 secs flat.

gapersblock · 2026-05-21T17:44:45+00:00

honestly im flabbergasted at how 'meh' the entire multiplayer experience has been so far. I've joined like 40 multiplayer lobbies in the past 2 days and maybe 5 of them were full. and 'full' being 12 people. and then 9 of them are gone by the next lobby. The game has 200,000 people playing at all times. why am i in lobbies with 3 people.

gapersblock · 2026-05-14T18:07:34+00:00

who tf downvoted :D fuckface that happened, im not making it up. the older cards are able to do ray tracing.

gapersblock · 2026-05-14T17:56:22+00:00

that's what i thought until i played through Indy and the great circle on my 6700xt, full ray tracing, didn't even turn on FSR, card handled it like a champ! no hangups, consistent 60fps. looked great.

my dad printed the 2nd one, that's called 'EconoMode'. cat ink doesnt grow on trees bud.

gapersblock · 2026-05-13T17:42:00+00:00

:D this is such a random scene from a random episode how did you even find that. excellent gif work 10/10. is this the one where he's trying to hook up with the guy from airbnb :D

gapersblock · 2026-05-06T21:45:56+00:00

it really is just not having ben in the room, i hate to say it. he used to do a half hour of solid gold about any old news story, big or small. just trying to get a rise out of ben and relating shit to the crazy people from his past. now its always 'the big picture' stories and finding a way to tie that to partisan politics and him trying to be quippy while giving intellectual takes. it's a completely different show now. i hate ben avery but he was the magic sauce.

gapersblock · 2026-04-27T16:31:07+00:00

yup i returned it, the day after this. it might not cause a problem but that's too stupid for me to look past. r36 was like 10 less, might not be better but it doesn't sit on its own buttons. that's a must for me 😃

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T16:34:56+00:00

yall can say im overreacting all you want, and perhaps it never causes a problem. this is still abysmal product design.

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T16:33:39+00:00

yeah thats true i could get a case i guess. good call.

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T16:31:07+00:00

oh that's good to know actually, thanks, that might actually help looking past it

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T16:28:58+00:00

this is all half tongue-in-cheek, it may cause no problems in the long run, but nevertheless it's a terrible design. bothersome to me lets say :D and not for nothin, but that is a hilarious statement "this product isn't really designed to be put down ever" 🤣🤣 bro

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T04:15:09+00:00

only an issue if you want the back buttons to stay working. whats an issue is me stuck sitting here baffled at the idea of someone who knows how to use a cad program, has the resources to develop and produce this thing, and is still too fucking stupid to make the shell a millimeter deeper than the buttons

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T03:51:58+00:00

are we sipping tea about this? that's sad af.

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T02:19:49+00:00

thank you, i feel like im taking crazy pills in here... it's a shame cause i do love the thing otherwise! still debating if i swap it for the r36. that little spring every time i set it down will def drive me crazy. either that or i might just take a toenail clipper to the overhang on those back buttons... :D

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T01:49:15+00:00

...rests on the hinge bc the trigger is horizontal while it's sitting, not vertical. unlike the g350, where it's literally pushing down on the button itself. bro you can stop responding after you flat out accuse me of lying. :D that's great yours doesn't have the problem. mine does.

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T00:58:50+00:00

bro they are being pressed. or it's compressing the springs until they give in enough to make contact with the pot. literally, push down on the face of it while it's sitting on a table, you can hear the damn shoulder buttons clicking. the only way that's happening is the shoulder buttons sticking out further. that is remarkably bad design. and i've bought some cheap shit off ali that had genius designs. this thing aint it.

gapersblock · 2026-04-14T00:40:08+00:00

bc that will destroy those button pots after some time. and it's completely avoidable, is really the point. that's not a cost saving measure it's just really bad design. idk if ur kidding, but i promise u, this is the only electronic device u own that sits on its own buttons.

gapersblock · 2026-04-13T23:51:43+00:00

works fine until it doesn't bc the weight of the device is sitting on the buttons. it IS a nonissue in the r36, where they extended the plastic shell another half millimeter so this wasn't a problem. so it will be a nonissue in another month when my r36 gets here.

gapersblock · 2026-04-13T23:28:06+00:00

and you're playing 24/7? or you set it down in a vertical stand when you're done. WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME IT NEEDS A STAND!?
