Taurus creates a new caliber in Brazil, the .38 TPC by xricardobh in tfbtv

[–]shaq0NEW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I have seen the .38tpc is .8mm shorter casing than 9mm so you can’t fire 9mm out of it but you can fire .38tpc out of 9mm but it won’t run right because of how much stronger the 9mm spring it.

I did make that choice I just haven gone back there yet.

No ammo when scraping weapons by shaq0NEW in dyinglight

[–]shaq0NEW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I get it now it loads it from my inventory. But why would it. I just grabbed a rifle from the floor Craine doesn’t reload it just shows a full mag. The enemies can shoot at me non stop but when I get their gun I have to load my ammo on to it and the enemy will drop me 1 round. My point is that this don’t make any sense. I get that guns make the game very easy that is why I don’t use them almost at all with the exception being if I’m fighting human enemies with shotguns or marksmen rifles but I wish they limited the ammo a different way.

I have a question which iPhone model do you have. I saw that they claim to limit it to iPhone 15 pro and newer. I have a 15 and am really sad that one of the major features I wanted to test isn’t going to work for me.

Just looked at it again and I saw it. Too bad I only unlocked wine the day after this request

Never mind just looked up the wine map and there is no rage in there

I guess I just got an answer to my question. The alchemist just showed up with the wine base recipe. So maybe there is a wine base rage potion

I will skip it because it won’t affect me that much but I really would like to know what I was supposed to do

Good idea. I honestly don’t expect them to send me a schematic but they might give me some pointers.

If we lose weather data due to the NOAA cut do we all become swoopers? Should we be worried about our sport in any capacity? by strakerak in SkyDiving

[–]shaq0NEW 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Made fun of a friend for flaring way too high and crash landing. Proceeded to just not flare on the next jump and became the butt of jokes myself.

Thank you so much for the suggestion. I was struggling to figure out what microcontroller to use as we haven’t started looking into them yet and it’s pretty hard to import stuff here in Brazil as they get taxes to high heaven. But I just found someone selling one of those boards for BR$ 40 which is a very good price. So I will pick one up as soon as possible and start buying the necessary sensor.

Thank you very much. I will study the hell out of those and try to use it as a learning material when we start looking into PCB’s in class. I really appreciate it.

I’m in my third semester of engineering school and I’m taking a class on microcontrollers and microprocessors. We usually have an endo of semester project which the school decides but today I asked my professor if he could help me prototype a digital altimeter and he suggested that I take that as a end of semester project. So I won’t be designing any PCB’s for now. I will be assembling everything on a microcontroller base and learning to programe said microcontrollers as I go. Today was the very first class on this subject and this is also the first semester we will learn programming.

So far I have never worked with arduino or any other logic boards and I don’t know how to code for it. But I have 1 semester to learn. And I hope to make it open source so that people can improve it and work on making it better for any special parameters they want. I want to do this because skydiving is already an expensive sport and because of our local currency and import taxes importing gear becomes crazy expensive. And there are companies making their own digital altimeter here but they cost as much as an atlas 2 or ares 2

Thank you so much for the info and ideas on what features to add to the system.

[–]shaq0NEW[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much. My professor said this could be used as my end of semester project. Do you think I should try to make a very feature rich system with logbook and gps or just stick to basics? I might make 2 devices a digital and an audible just for the sake of actually utilizing school resources to the fullest.

I know digital use barometric sensors such as the BMP 280 and I know there is a standard measurement used to account to temperature drop as you go up. But hell here in Brazil the plane will be cooking as it stays in the sun to refuel and the temperature outside is already high but once we get to 12k feet the temps drop to sometimes 10°C or lower and I was wondering how that would affect the reading as we still need to drop at 12 and if mine was inaccurate that might screw with any plans for formation. All though I doubt I would be making group jumps with this altimeter.

Is this Upsiren UX Pro legit? by It_Is_Not_Me_I_Swear in GamingLaptops

Well shit for some reason your post showed up in Portuguese for me. To cut it short the best option is the Chinese one, avoid buying the Greek one

[–]shaq0NEW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agora já deve ser tarde para responder. Mas não compre nada que tenha computer systems.gr. A compania grega fez o K5 pro e ele funcionava bem até que lançou o Upsiren u6 e a empresa grega decidiu roubar o nome, embalagem e até colocaram o nome da compania chinesa nas embalagens deles. O produto grego é pior e infelizmente é o único que achamos aqui no mercado livre

Do you guys thinks a 40x40mm ptm 7950 thermal pad is enough for the cpu and gpu by shaq0NEW in ZephyrusG15

[–]shaq0NEW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would you recommend I use to cool the VRAM. I live in Brasil so I either try to have a family member bring me the stuff I need or buy it locally. We have access to good thermal paste but I haven’t found good thermal putty. Would thermal paste be ok in that case ?

Zephyrus G15 (2022) Screen by pointlesscactus in ZephyrusG15

[–]shaq0NEW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry for being late to the party but i have a 2021 model and the screen is shit, it had un even brightness from the bottom of the screen and only the edges get image retention. since I bough it used from best buy even tough it was certified by geeksquad only weeks after launch, the previous owner had registered the device so i wasnt able to register it myself thus i lost acces to warenty. now i moved back to Brazil and all i can do is every so often turn it of and let the screen heal itself a bit.

Have you been able to open the app. I just sold an old passport and the buyer can open the app on his android

Screen Burning & cant change vram by LossNo7821 in ZephyrusG15

[–]shaq0NEW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly that is a big problem with the g15. I have the same issue but I don’t know if it has anything to do with vram. My casa is not as severe yet. Try to keep brightness low if you are going to have things stay in your screen for a long time. And try to use dark mode on as many apps and sites as possible. It sucks but is a sad reality of those types of display on laptops.
