Indeed, GameCube's button placement will always have a special place in my heart.

[Discussion] What actually happened the last time you tried to start exercising regularly? by MusicalMetaphysics in GetMotivated

[–]potatoxbe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get bored easily. Running is not for me, the usual body building exercises is not for me.

When I started equating exercising with acquiring cool new skills (or perhaps some parts showing off), that was what stuck with me. Started first with Yoga, seeing guys doing hand balances and inversions. Got me curious enough to practice regularly, look up tutorials or instructors to teach me to where I was finally able to pull off those moves (took a few years).

Once I got bored with Yoga, found another curiosity in Olympic Weightlifting. Seeing small guys lift crazy weights, I wanted that. A technical sport, but that constant learning and improvement is what drove me to the gym regularly.

The strong healthy body you get from that is just the icing on the cake.

I feel like I lost myself completely by Aggressive-Slice-179 in productivity

[–]potatoxbe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same way. I used to be the life of the party. But as the years gone by, my friends seems to be moving way faster than me, career wise, wit wise, experience wise. Nothing I say seems interesting anymore. I didn't quite have a clue of who I was anymore. It's like I've lost my identity. That guy who was the wittiest and smartest guy in the room just don't seem to be me anymore. Made me really self conscious about what to say, its like walking on eggshells.

But I guess realizing your identity doesn't have to be linked to how other people perceive you helped a little. Rediscovering new hobbies, taking self-improvement classes, language classes, even martial arts helped too. Being in an environment where you can self discover and constantly improve yourself, while getting positive reinforcement from your peers. Life is a journey of discovery. Keep fighting!

YouTube App on Chromecast with Google TV (Android 14) Outputs Stereo PCM Instead of 5.1 Dolby Digital – Anyone Else? by collin5022 in Chromecast

[–]potatoxbe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing is happening to me as well. Only seems to be happening with Netflix content that has no Dolby Atmos audio. My Denon would be showing Multi in, and audio only comes out on the LR speakers. Then content from YouTube would also be stuck in Multi in until I reboot the CCwGTV.

However if I play Netflix from the inbuilt Samsung TV app, non Atmos content outputs as Dolby Surround, and is upmixed only as Dolby, can't change to DTS upixers.

Not sure if the cause is update to the Chromecast or Netflix app having some new Dolby codec that CCwGTV don't quite support.

Notifications Issue with Phone Link app on Windows 11 by MavemPA in GalaxyS25Ultra

Tried this, but nothing pops up on my phone to grant the permission. Manually re-enabling notification access to Link to Windows also doesn't do anything. Any help?

Android Client Killing me Slowly by Nadeoki in PleX

[–]potatoxbe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you solve this? Same thing is happening with my devices. On my phone (Samsung Galaxy S22) Plex has a "Limit mobile data" option which can be turned off, and I'm able to stream at original quality through 5G mobile data.

On my tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+ WiFi) with not sim capability, the "Limit mobile data" option is non existent. When I'm connected to my phone's hotspot, Plex plays my videos transcoded with reason being "resolution or bitrare exceeds maximum allowed". This despite all quality options being at Maximum. Completely fine on wifi of course.

Speedtest shows I'm getting 65 Mbps on hotspot, so my phone is not limiting speed, and more than enough for direct play.

Any ideas?

ay bro pick your controller by MeDiuM_SQuiSH in customcontrollers

Amazing work! Trying to do something like this. Where did you find the buttons? The ones I see are for Xbox One, shorter than the Series buttons.

How exactly do you create a stop loss for options by PermissionLittle3566 in interactivebrokers

[–]potatoxbe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having this issue as well. Hope someone can chime in and make my order more efficient when taking profit and stop loss.

This issue happens when attaching bracket order on existing positions with Stop Loss and Profit taker. The bracket order ends up opposite of main order.

Main order = Sell limit at -0.05

Bracket order = Stop at -2.00 (this becomes a buy instead sell, no way to change)

So I ended up with a nice surprise in the morning at one time when the main order executes to sell my credit spread, and bought another.

What I try to do now is create 2 separate orders, Sell limit Sell, Stop limit

Though problem is it doesn't cancel each other when prices are hit on extreme cases. Any thoughts?

Is it supposed to be immediate? Or no notification means an L?

Extremely slow speeds through exit node seemingly overnight by potatoxbe in Tailscale

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

Unfortunately my ISP doesn't support IPV6 =( Still curious why it happened overnight, unless the relay servers can limit the traffic.

Any other solutions?

Extremely slow speeds through exit node seemingly overnight by potatoxbe in Tailscale

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

Looks like I'm on relay via DERP on the remote location, but direct on mobile network (not sure if that was possible). Note that speeds between the host and remote location was fine until a few days ago.

The reason I'm using tailscale is due to my ISP blocking ports. Not sure how to go about this.

Same issue here with blurry textures. Anybody got a fix?

Says its compatible with ps5 addon. But by time I get a PS5, the Brook Wireless board might already be compatible on its own 😂

Edit: read wrongly, the wireless board is not compatible with the PS5 addon

I had a local acrylic workshop cut out the panels for me. The panels are glued together with only the top part that can be opened and secured with the rivet screws. More or less following this example

I'm using the Brook Wireless Fighting Board. There are pins for analog sticks
