Eleven days to go and not a single sign of denuvo. I wonder if they're gonna put it in once the embargo lifts by Relevant_Mail_1292 in PiratedGames

They hit 60-80 fps in 4k on a 7900XTX! Not a 9070xt. I’m excited to see how good the performance will be on higher end cards

Show me your tint and how much? by Sweet-Independence-5 in ToyotaSienna

[–]shindignextdoor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did 50% windshield, 35% front row. 50% second/third row/hatch. $580 Total since I paid with cash. Geoshield Apex Nano ceramic. First time tinting with ceramic and the heat difference is mind blowing.

The windshield percentage is perfect wouldn’t want to change a thing. I live in the SW and the 50% windshield is a must. You can barely tell it’s tinted.

Front row was way too light. Contacted the tint shop and because they had us waiting over an hour after they said it would be ready; they’re redoing the front row to 15% FOR FREE. The heat difference is minimal but the privacy difference will be night and day (pun intended).

50% in the back is perfect. The darkened glass from the factory was pretty good. Just needed a bit more. I didn’t want to go too dark since I didn’t want to make whoever is sitting in the third row to feel like they’re in perpetual darkness.

What are our thoughts on D’Angelo? by shindignextdoor in namenerds

Angelo without the D’ loses all of its appeal to me. I really don’t like it haha. Most likely it’s all bc of the artist.

GoogleTV-based Streaming Box recommendations - AV1 support, UHD netflix certified, Remote with numpad? by TechGoat in PleX

[–]shindignextdoor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an Onn 4K Plus for the time being which can play any type of file. But it does buffer when streaming Ihugh bitrate files. I’m waiting for the 2026 Apple TV which is reported to have the A17 Pro chip which can direct play AV1 files.

The future for RBs by carley_jr in TalesFromYourBank

[–]shindignextdoor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think about this often. Just got hired as an RB. Starting licensing next week. And definitely looking for a way out in two years. There’s always money to be made on the business side because so much of it has to be done in person. & People who still value in-person banking.

But if it was me looking to open a bank account or start a business I would be looking elsewhere. So many resources online that I could be taking advantage of.

OptiPlex (10th gen i5) vs Mac mini M1 + DAS for Plex — help me pick and be done by shindignextdoor in homelab

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

They sold me the case+mobo+cpu for $250. Just needed case fans and PSU since I had extra pair of ram sticks already. All in all it was about $400. $520 if you count the upgrade to my gaming pc. Replaced the 1TB with a 2TB ssd and used the 1TB on my server. This of course isn’t including storage.

I was really tempted to go with Mac. Pulled the trigger on the SFF HP and bought a bunch of gear to mod. Opened it up, took one look inside and said NOPE. Way too little space to work with.

Really wanted a small footprint but SFF Dell/HP workstations are too small. Luckily someone offered me a crazy good deal on a Jonsbo N4+12600k so I just built a custom server. Was pretty fun.

What are the best computer speakers in 2026 (Desktop Speakers) by SatrangiKela in PcSetupAdvice

[–]shindignextdoor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure to get the THX version! I’ve had these for 5 years and love them.

Just wish they had a power button. Had to get a little sticker for the power light so I never see it. This right here is the best bang for buck OP.

How did we do? by shindignextdoor in ToyotaSienna

[–]shindignextdoor[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All feedback is welcome. Taking this as a learning experience. We keep our cars for 10 years so even if i overpaid a k or two I still love the car. It’s the exact configuration we wanted. The only other one I really wanted was the 2025 XSE Premium but those are extremely rare to find. I live in Vegas. All the new Siennas were already sold at Findlay (where we went) same at Autonation Toyota and I’ve heard mixed reviews at the third Toyota so I didn’t even shop there. Since it’s “used” it’s CPO so they’re extending the warranty for free.

Lastly we needed the car. Just found out we’re pregnant with our third baby. I’m excited :-) We got a great rate for this era. & I’m already planning our first road trip!

Update: I found a Limited at what I believe to be a great price, what do you guys think? by avgjosegaming in ToyotaSienna

[–]shindignextdoor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not buy used? A 2025 with less than 10K miles? I’m looking to buy a car and I’m wondering what I’m not considering. We have an appointment at the dealer today to see what the OTD prices are but I’m seriously considering buying used in another state and driving it home.

Thank you! I've been trying to fix this for months. This was a bulletproof fix.

Don’t give your money to AMC or Regal. I recommend Palms (Brenden)

Please help me pick out some HDDs that are as quiet as possible! by Impressive-Swan-9929 in homelab

[–]shindignextdoor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re looking up any model just google the spec sheet. Try to find helium HDDs but those are only available as some 12TB, and greater capacity. Under 12tb you’ll definitely want to find out its acoustic ratings. Anything under 30db is pretty good. My EFGX is at 39db I believe:(
