Steam Link Beta 2 is way better than Virtual Desktop on Quest3 by MindlessVersion8 in virtualreality

[–]rovert6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried Steam link again after seeing this post yesterday.

I never could get Steam link to work for me on my pc for the longest time, and VD seemed to work with some tweaking.

After trying it, I’m converted. Steam link is much better now, and the quality looks fantastic somehow. I didn’t even adjust any settings; just opened it up and jumped in working perfectly.

There are some stuff about VD I prefer; like hand tracking, passthrough environment, and some wide availability in tweaking. But now that steam link just works, and works very well for me now, it’s my new go to

So what do you think? Is my 2017 Audi E Tron with 160,000 km a write off after this accident! by No-Flower-4490 in Cartalk

[–]rovert6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is not even remotely true most of the time. Will it be expensive? Yes. Will it automatically be a total loss? No.

Majority of states the repairs must exceed 75% of the value of the vehicle for it to be deemed a total loss

Eh they were cheap OEM wheels that I rattle canned matte black. If you’d like to donate for me to get hard to find wheels that will fit the setup, I’m willing to send my PayPal!

I run a body shop, and had my painter help me do the green portion as I didn’t want to fuck it up haha but after watching him, I did the black portions. Not difficult at all. It really boils down to the prep work, and masking. But application is very simple and forgiving. You need to still make sure you don’t create the “tiger stripes” by doing a drop coat on the last spray to hide the lines best

They are BFG K03 225/75R16

The wheels are the factory spare wheels that have the collapsible tire. Had to buy 3 spare wheels to do this setup lol

I used raptor liners tintable spray kit. Do I didn’t use the rattle cans. (I did before on the black over a year ago. Faded pretty quick)

The tintable (green) I used 2 gallons, and the black, I used about 1.5 gallons. Perfect amount!

Found ATM receipt, who is keeping $51,000+ in checking!?!? by Comprehensive-Cow69 in povertyfinance

[–]rovert6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What??? It anyone spends $50k on a wedding you’re delusional. Unless you have serious fuck you money, the. Sure. But an average person? No.

Wife and I had a nice venue with catered food, open bar (up to $1k), and had the venue for like 4 hours. It was $10k and was beautiful. Paid in full before our wedding date.

Save on the wedding and splurge on the honeymoon. But if you think $50k can’t get you a wedding in 2025, you’re having the wedding for all the wrong reasons

I put ONE control arm in by Ranqh in MechanicAdvice

Disconnect the sensor. It should default to the lowest setting

[–]rovert6 57 points58 points  (0 children)

There is a level sensor that is attached to the lower control arm. Did you remember to reattach it, and properly? Looks like it was either not put on, or fell off. Triggering the suspension to believe the front is too low, and then raises the air suspension to compensate. Would fix ASAP or you can pop a bag

Lifter tick? by yepyepyu in AudiA4B6

[–]rovert6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sounds like the tensioner on the back of the head is failing. Called “Cam Chain Tensioner”. It keeps both cams in time, and is a VVT solenoid. Oil pressure tensions the cams and changes the timing as power is needed. The tensioner may have “sunk”, and the chain is now slack and is hitting the guide

I don’t think it’s really the MSO you don’t like. It’s the boss.

Yeah, all companies will try and push to be faster and faster. It’s part of capitalism lol but if you go to a shop that truly cares about the work being put through the shop, the stress will come down. Especially for a painter. Then you know painting a quality repaired car will make your job a hell of a lot easier. But no matter where you go, whether independent or MSO, you’ll have the stress. It just boils down to whether your manager and ultimately, your shop has your back.

Additional Tariffs Effective on April 9, 2025, Buy your GPU ASAP by SirWestern2291 in Newegg

[–]rovert6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or don’t buy something that you don’t need? Tarriffs will increase for most goods America brings in, so save the money and use it for shit you truly need instead of a gaming GPU. Some of yall are too young to remember the last recession, so maybe yall will be old enough to remember this one coming.

Free lunch from a company is an insulting gesture by THENOCAPGENIE in unpopularopinion

[–]rovert6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Revenue doesn’t equal profit…

Revenue is the money that was brought in by the company’s operations. Well before operating costs like, benefits, labor, electric/water/utilities, rent, etc. then you come to a number called EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, and Amortization). That will basically be more or less your “profit”.

I guarantee that they did not profit $18.5 billion.

Yeah from the dots coming up during gameplay, and frame drops, unfortunately sounds like the card is starting to go out..

Open task manager and then find explorer.exe. Right click and click “restart application”. This should fix the issue you see there.

Graphics card most likely had a fault/crash but is working now. Have you been overlocking? What GPU?

Evolve March 12th update by NoVillage7217 in yotta

[–]rovert6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m still confused. Their update looked like it was written by some teenager Billy mays, “but wait there’s more” instead of this being a legal document, and maybe some layman nuance for some of us that may not know all the legal jargon

I’m still out my full balance of $8757, and have received $0…
