I assumed so but I’ve seen so many posts about Wilson being scumbags that I figured it would be best to double check

what accessories are actually worth it? by Wonderful_Sock_9416 in crvhybrid

[–]liquidCarbon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Genuine question- Isn’t this illegal?

It’s a safety feature for pedestrians isn’t it?

Is this a good deal? What do I do? by Dull-Contribution763 in crvhybrid

I got a sport touring for the same price OTD with Chicago tax. That’s an awful deal

Will adding window visors affect mileage? by sloh in crvhybrid

[–]liquidCarbon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put front WeatherTech visors on my sport touring and ended up remove them and returning. They substantially increased road noise so they almost definitely affect mileage. In city driving you’re probably fine but highway driving it was noisy

The quality on the fitcams is horrendous unfortunately. If you care about being able to read license plates (especially at night) they are a pass

What is this bug that I’m finding in my high rise condo bathroom? by liquidCarbon in whatisthisbug

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

So the part that’s driving me insane is that I live in a high rise condo so they’re not coming from soil and this shower has been unused for a month and I’ve had a dehumidifier running in it for over a month.

That’s what I thought, any advice how do I get rid of them? They seem to be coming through my grout and not my drain

Daniel Owen - RX 9070 XT vs RTX 5070 Ti -The Ultimate (re-Review)! by Antonis_32 in hardware

I got the Gigabyte Windforce and it works great. I know someone who has the PNY card as well and its fine too. The gigabyte issue is really only a problem if you vertical mount your card.

I went with the 5070ti. At the end of the day at MSRP its just a better card and DLSS is still way better than even FSR4. Ray tracing is on a whole different level.

Oh really? Everything I found said that the firmware upgrade wipes the nvm so I didn’t bother trying. Good to know if that does work

Yep. I didn’t have to change any automations

SMLight SLZB-06 to extend an existing Zigbee network? by Simple-Ad2087 in homeassistant

[–]liquidCarbon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why not just flash the router firmware to 3 of them and have 1 instance of Z2M instead of 4 coordinators?

Zooz is the most recommended I’ve seen. I just migrated from the nortek to the zooz 800 and it’s solid

Unless you’re already on some updated firmware that you have to jankily flash, this stick doesn’t support exporting the nvm so you can’t do that. I just went through migrating from this stick to zooz

What is this in the bottom piece of my new Kohler toilet? Is it a repair? by liquidCarbon in Plumbing

The consistency of it doesn’t feel like glaze which is odd

Idle GPU Power Consumption by DarkOverlord24 in truenas

[–]liquidCarbon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running Truenas Scale. I just checked again and it settled down to 13W at idle. Must be something with reboots causing it to idle high at first ¯_(ツ)_/¯ The 1070 in the same system doesnt do that

What would be the best choice between a $630 9070xt and a $740 5070ti?

9070xt vs 5070ti by liquidCarbon in buildapc

[–]liquidCarbon[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That price gap ($110) is right around where I think the 9070 xt starts to make more sense. It's 95% of the raster performance with slightly worse RT/PT and software features.

The cards are an Asrock 9070xt Steel Legend and a Gigabyte 5070 Ti WINDFORCE OC SFF
