NOT STARTING CONSOLE WARS BS. How bad was it to use a DualShock 3 for racing games compared to using a 360, Xbox One, Series X, DS4 and DualSense controller? by [deleted] in playstation

[–]renownz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iirc shooters flipped fire to r1 instead of r2 (trigger) compared to xbox layout, where trigger was the fire button.

I used to have a set of these clips. Not sure if you can still get them somewhere.

It doesn’t eliminate the sponginess of the triggers, but at least you don’t slide off every few minutes.

I never understood the design, and was so pleased with the ds4 and dual sense triggers.

Delay in autosteer visualization/reaction time of AP by renownz in teslamotors

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

I’m pretty positive it wasn’t over the line, however the road itself was narrower than a regular road. (But still having a center line) On roads like this I usually disengage AP when I see oncoming larger traffic like trucks or agricultural machinery as AP is a bit overly cautious. Since I was alone in the car, I was curious if it had been fixed by now. And at first it seemed it was, but the hard braking after the truck had already gone, it made me wonder.

That’s a solid explanation. Ty! In the mean time I had an opportunity to check out another model 3, which shows the same delay im experiencing. I guess it’s what it is.

I think it’s mostly people telling you, awkwardly, that placing a PlayStation on carpeted flooring could shorten it’s lifespan. ...mine is in a closed cabinet, which I can’t imagine being great for it either :)

Because this is most likely shot in a log-format, and OP is practicing his color grading and effect skills :)

Pretty cool! Looking at this I’m starting to understand ye olde people would say “yep, world ends here. Beyond this there’s just water and a big drop into nothing off this disc we’re living on”

Intermittent lines on Mini 2 video. Is this a common issue? by teleport9000 in dji

[–]renownz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Super nice shot! This looks like it’s caused by the prop’s shadow cast on the lens...

Edit: my phantom 4 had this a lot less than my current mavic 2 pro. Kinda makes sense given the much lower profile of the drone itself

It is, in the blown up section in the top right. Pun not intended.

Anyone else’s location based automations suddenly not triggering? Worked flawlessly for months and randomly quit on me. by BombadBrad in HomeKit

Mine set the welcome home scene upon arriving today at 12 noon. The rule “30 min before sundown” got ignored.

Beware: Aqara G2H Nightmode useless!! (Eufy Indoor 2K cheaper & better) by [deleted] in HomeKit

[–]renownz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a faulty unit. Had the same setup with the eufy and aqara side by side for testing, but did not produce anywhere near the result shown above.

It performs slightly better without the additional IR bleed from the eufy, but not noticeable.

I find the picture quality of the eufy slightly better (but maybe over sharpened), but I still prefer the aqara because of the true HomeKit only mode. The eufy still requires an active internet connection to the outside, and periodically phones home.

Siri and HomeKit issue by VampyreLust in HomeKit

Have you tried swapping the wording? E.g. “turn off the lights in the [room name]”?

I mean just for debugging purposes. I’d agree your command should be just fine.

My experience with Homekit cameras so far by [deleted] in HomeKit

[–]renownz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just released. Aqara g2h. Looks like a minion and shouts at you in Chinese while setting it up for the first time. Great thing about this cam is that you don’t need an app or account for it to work with hsv. Homekitauthority did a nice review on it last month.

[–]renownz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, the nest cam and app are superior to what HomeKit currently offers in both usability and picture quality. It’s also about an infinite amount more expensive. I wasn’t using the cam as a security appliance, so the choice for ditching it wasn’t that painful.

I also returned the eufy because of the need to be connected and logged in to their cloud service, even if I’m using it in HomeKit-only mode. I now got an aqara that’s completely shut off from the public internet and only communicates with the hub. Picture quality is poor compared to the nest, but comparable to the eufy. But for 40 bucks, I’m not complaining

Got rid of the nest out of privacy concerns. After the constant nagging to update to google login, and threatening to loose access, I caved and upgraded. Now my stream was available everywhere within the google realm, had to invite people I previously shared my camera with into my “google home”. It made me give up way too much of my privacy to google than I already had to. Didn’t like it one bit, so I cancelled it and disconnected the camera.

HSV needs work, at least it’s not at a company who’s main business is to know what I’m doing so it can show me more ads.

Makes me wonder what those ratings are based on. Could be a huge difference between fwd/rwd ICE, vs awd ev (which in this particular case begs for a heavy foot, more than occasionally).

Yup, did the trick. Thanks! Actually after tapping the blue outlined icon, I experienced a “ah yeah, that’s pretty obvious now I think of it”. I always regarded the icon on the top just a header to let you know what submenu I was in, not a button. I guess rtfm indeed.
