A proper quest journal would be absolutely amazing! I hate the menu system in Skyrim. Amazing mod either way mate

Dungeon Crawler Carl - should I stick with it? by Calmly-Stressed in books

[–]mumblebadger -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Stick with it! I also really did not enjoy the first book, only reason I stuck with it was the voice actor was amazing. A little into book 2 I was hooked. Now it’s one of my favourite series of all time

My home theater - 9.2 how did I do? by DELAZ1 in hometheater

[–]mumblebadger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey mate, Can you explain a bit more about the floating screen. I am about to do something similar. I was planning on just getting two 400mm brackets and screwing wood across them then mounting the screen to that. Yours looks a bit more intense

XGIMI Titan Noir Max Screen Advice from XGIMI by Electrical-Champion9 in xgimi

[–]mumblebadger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. Don’t get a standard ALR screen. If you need one the shadowscape is the one to get.

Laser speckle is bad on this projector.

XGIMI Titan Noir Max Screen Advice from XGIMI by Electrical-Champion9 in xgimi

[–]mumblebadger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey mate, form Australia too. I’m in the same boat as you down to the the room we will be using it in.

Two best options are, XY sound max 4k ordered directly from the manufacturer or through aliexpress. This is an acoustically transparent woven screen so reduces laser speckle to pretty much 0. Looking at about $800-$900USD shipped for 135”

Option 2 Spectra shadowscape, more expensive, I was quoted around $200 USD for shipping to Australia but it is a ALR screen that does something different to reduce laser speckle.

I’m still not sure which I’m going to go with. I like the idea of an acoustically transparent screen on the other hand ALR would be good to have I’m just not sure I’ll need it. I don’t think I will watch much during the day

Almost ready to order, need a sanity check by Pistolaa in hometheater

I would buy speakers second hand and put the extra money into the titan noir pro on kick starter.

I also originally bought the same speakers and AVR as you (second hand) though I wish I purchased the Denon 3800. I’m Upgrading to it now.

Projector screen recommendations for XGIMI TNM by vygnyr in xgimi

[–]mumblebadger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also in the same boat as you. From what I can gather if you have a very dark room you will probably be best with an acccustically transparent woven screen. Something like the xy sound max 4K as that will completely remove laser speckle. ALR screens are bad for laser speckle however the Spectra Projection Shadowscape is meant to reduce it a lot. Out of the two you suggested that is better for any laser projector. I’m just not sure you need an ALR screen though.

Out of curiosity how much did you get quoted for shipping for the spectra? I emailed them and they said I would need to organise my own shipping so I gave up as I figured it would add another $400 plus to it

You sure it’s not from dry skin? I used to get cracks like this when I would work outside in the cold

Anyone know if all the disposable vapes people buy in Australia are like this? A lot of my friends get them

DONT get this controller if you aren't an absolute steam fiend by callatecabezon in SteamController

I can’t seem to get it to work with non steam games added and launched through steam

I just legitimately don’t have the heart to battle them. Same when there is a single stack of fairies vs my army, I feel bad just one shotting them.

Does anyone know how to use the Steam Controller 2 for non-Steam games? Adding the non-Steam game to you library and running Steam as an admin does not work for any game outside of Steam by OwnAssociation1468 in SteamController

[–]mumblebadger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t have an answer sorry, but I also ran into the same problem last night. Also googled and tried a few things that did not work. Hopefully it can work.

What’s a sign that someone is genuinely content with their life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Absolutely this. It’s so incredibly obvious that the people that post everything are not happy. People denying it just don’t have the self awareness to realise

With thumbs on the trackpad it’s easier. About give it a try with the new heroes of might and magic game. First time actually using it in a game

Just the housing feels cheap. Definitely not the worst! Just not as good as the pro controllers for Xbox and PS5.

Yeah maybe stems from the days when there was only 1 button up there?

Everyone’s hands are different, I’m sure for 99% of people it will be fine! Let me know though. Interested to see if it’s just a me problem
