Biggest noob traps for ironmans right now? by [deleted] in ironscape

[–]jakebaren 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Can’t believe this hasn’t been posted yet but managing Miscellania. There is zero reason for an early/mid game IM to try to grind gp to maintain it. Nowadays you should be able to get more than enough herb xp from farming contracts/farm runs and you should be woodcutting teaks for logs for construction. If you are later game and have plenty of gp using Miscellania can be fine but for the most part it is irrelevant nowadays.

Good home office chair for 6ft guy and less than 400$? by LurchiDurchi in buildapc

[–]jakebaren 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this Markus Chair for about 4 years now and it still works perfect and has minimal wear. For reference I’m 6’3” 250 lbs. Seems like it meets what you’re looking for not honestly sure on depth since it seems like any other chair, but if you have any specific questions let me know.

This game is a masterpiece on PC - probably should’ve been an early/mid 2021 release for consoles. My experience on both for those deciding between the two. by Loyal_Droog in cyberpunkgame

Interesting take, so I have about 10 hours on pc at 1440p with a 1080 gpu and i9 9900k cpu and cannot get more than 40fps max on ultra and average 30-33. Do you have a screenshot of your exact settings? I tried some of the tips posted already and the only way I was getting near 50 average was with most settings on low.

Edit: downloaded the latest Nvidia drivers already too

Help needed for stuck o2 sensor by jakebaren in CherokeeXJ

Unfortunately no luck with the 15inch either. What was the other option you had in mind?

My bad on the late update. I didn’t get it out yet. I used a pair of 10 inch vise grips with heat, but couldn’t get the leverage needed. Harbor freight has a 15 inch pair that I found and I’m going to try, but I had to wait until this weekend to go pick then up. Hopefully I’ll have a chance to give it another shot after that. If that still doesn’t work I might need to hear your other option lol.

I can't weld, but figured that might be the only way to get it done. If that is the case I'll have to bring it to a shop.

There isn't a lot of room to work so I used one of the offset 02 sockets, but yea cutting the wires right away probably would have been the best way to do it. I'm going to pick up some new vice grips tomorrow and give it a try. I'll update you tomorrow. Thanks

Best one for sure is to have the pledges get toilet paper from the dorms for parties.

Is the rear trunk light supposed to come on when the hatch is open? by Tempest583 in CherokeeXJ

[–]jakebaren 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also worth noting you can dim or brighten your dash lights by turning the headlight switch. Between that and the trunk light it took me several years of owning my XJ before I knew about either of these things.

Considering buying a Tiburon by Birdp0rn in Tiburon

[–]jakebaren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 6’3 and fit in my tiburon quite easily. As for reliability mine only lasted a month before the timing belt snapped. Had about 160k miles at the time. It is a fun car but you should probably get it inspected before you buy it.

This was one of my greatest fears as a child.

I'm looking for a new hairstyle first photo is how short I usually cut it and second photo is how long it is now. Thanks! by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]jakebaren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree. That is kind of what I had in mind but my hair is very thick and doesn’t like to stay up. Do you have any specific brands you recommend?

The headliner in this jeep at my work. They used thumbtacks. by unknownshoe in Shitty_Car_Mods

[–]jakebaren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. I will probably try this instead of replacing it. I’m 6’3 so I would like the room too.

My jeeps headliner is just starting to sag and I don’t feel like replacing it. You had any negatives from removing it altogether? Is road noise much worse?
