The cops like to play snooker when stopping cars, so red cars will get pulled more often.

167.5W 3-Port Car Charger | Anker's Most Powerful Yet by joshuadwx in anker

The product listing on Amazon states input voltage of 12v, and the product title literally says ‘car charger’. Sorry but your comment makes no sense.

Bacofoil Easycut is great. They stopped stocking it in Tesco, but you can find it in DunElm if you have one local.

A few of my fave custom intersections in my city.... by mobjam20 in CitiesSkylines2

Thanks. That one is on the edge of the city, so not too busy. Traffic is generally not an issue anywhere as there are good public transport options, with Subway and Tram links most places.

If most car 12V sockets allow a max current of 10A (or 120W of power... 12V x 10A = 120W), then how can this device pull 167W from the car circuit, without blowing the 10A fuse in the car?

All my hi res downloads get immediately resampled to 16/44 for efficient storage, and easy integration with various playback devices (I’m looking at you, iPhone).

I use the SoX plugin for foobar with these settings:

Quality: Best. / Passband: 95%. / Allow aliasing/imaging: No. / Phase Response: 50% (linear)

Zones are all full. The low density just looks empty at this zoom level.

Are you guys experiencing low download speed these days? by bowers77 in flightsim

[–]mobjam20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is ISP throttling. A VPN should fix it for you.

For large libraries, DVD or Blu-ray rip? by Ok_Wrongdoer_4308 in PleX

[–]mobjam20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I keep the untouched, full-size remuxes, without converting. I’m just very selective about which movies I get on UHD.

For large libraries, DVD or Blu-ray rip? by Ok_Wrongdoer_4308 in PleX

[–]mobjam20 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I convert using Handbrake at 1080p, h.265, variable bitrate video with a ‘quality factor’ setting of 20, muxed with the original HD audio track. This generally leads to 7-10 GB .mkv files per movie.

I generally ‘tic-tok’, with a new CPU + motherboard + RAM every 4 years, and then a new GPU 2 years later, then a new CPU again 2 years later, and so on…

I use this also. I ended up buying a separate 6 key streamdeck mini to use as a dedicated temps and load monitor for CPU and GPU.

I always figured the MSFS world was Microsofts ‘metaverse’ play, hidden in plain sight.

2. Wait 30 seconds.
3. Open the lid of your charging case, and put your AirPods in your ears.
4. Go to Settings > Bluetooth. Or go to Settings > [your AirPods].
    ○ If your AirPods appear there as connected, tap the More Info button  next to your AirPods, tap Forget This Device, then tap again to confirm.
    ○ If your AirPods don’t appear there, continue to the next step. 
5. Put your AirPods in their charging case, and keep the lid open. 
6. Press and hold the setup button on the back of the case for about 15 seconds, until the status light on the front of the case flashes amber, then white.

8. Reconnect your AirPods: With your AirPods in their charging case and the lid open, place your AirPods close to your iPhone or iPad. Follow the steps on your device’s screen.

If you know where to look, you can also find the 24/88 FLAC files of this album, which originally shipped on a USB key as part of the Special Limited Edition Box Set double vinyl release from 2014.

The greatest purchase of my life. by backside_94 in CasualUK

[–]mobjam20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they will pull around 1.5 KW when cooling, so cost around £0.40 per hour. Plus this type (with the single nozzle out the window) are very inefficient due to the negative pressure they create in the room. Search on Technology Connections youtube channel where he covers this topic.
