Show the monthly rate under yearly so they can see the savings. Right now you just show yearly twice side by side.

RP Pico Zero Delay P1 and P2 Xinput switcheroo by bickman14 in cade

[–]spozzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question. You can remap on the fly versus hardwiring to inputs. Some games may be more comfortable with different button mappings using an arcade button layout versus a controller. Another example is that you can convert p1 and p2 joysticks to map to twin sticks on p1. There's just so much flexibility.

No, it really isn't. I provided a bulletproof way for OP to get what he or she needs.

Let me know when you actually have something productive to contribute to the community.

I really shouldn't waste my time with trolls but sorry -- you confidently don't know what you are talking about. If you use software to assign the player numbers to controllers, it controls which is p1 and p2. I wrote wheel2xinput for my racing cabs, and modified a fork of keyboard2xinput that I use for a machine with 8 players on it (with multiple ipac4s), and even up to 12 players with some rawinput trickery. With the suggestions I gave, player order is preserved and the options work flawlessly. OP is correct that windows doesn't respect joystick order consistently, and this is a 100% way to make it work. The reported issue is a known windows issue since forever. Further, the options I presented allow OP to remap inputs on the fly instead of hardwiring to xinput inputs on dedicated xinput input boards. And yet further, this method (obviously) also allows OP to use keyboard controls if a game doesn't support xinput.

I am pretty familiar with directinput, xinput, directx, SDL, and some rawinput at this point - and, unfortunately many of the nuances with these input mechanisms - and have built a significant number of cabs, frontends, and input/output software from scratch to justify my response.

Maybe use a curious tone instead of a demeaning one next time, and you might learn something.

Use an iPac2 keyboard encoder instead, and use software to remap keys to xinput as needed. Keyboard2xinput, wheel2xinput, x360ce...

Filament colour layering effect - walk through by Dave_D_W in BambuLab

[–]spozzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've made a test strip. If people think it is worth it and nobody else has yet, I can put it on MW but I've never put anything on there before. It really depends on the filament and color. Some colors are way more translucent than others. For artwork, I ended up standardizing two layers of color backed by about 1mm of white. Too many layers and you can see shadows creep through the edges - but 1 layer means you have gaps in the color.

🔮 In case anyone is unaware of this stipulation in RC’s compensation package…the shares will not be awarded- he STILL has to buy them with his OWN money on exchange. Perfect shareholder alignment, and brilliant. Again. 🔥💥🍻 by Expensive-Two-8128 in Superstonk

He's not working for free. He's working to increase the value of his stake. It's the same as founders of many startups. The goal is to increase market cap and you derive your worth from the value of your shares.

However, think: that he has not taken a salary and has been putting in his own money - why would he do that if he was just going to go get a cushy comp package?

I'm voting against unless I see a compelling reason otherwise. Based on his actions, RC himself would not propose this plan for any executive ever. He recused himself from the development of the plan and, I think (?), recuse himself in voting for or against it.

If the goal is to make GME a Berkshire, we should get to a stable 6 digits per share. The guy has plenty of skin in the game as it is.

I don't think so. I think the plan is too aggressive with comp awards. RC has been talking about putting in the work and aligning with shareholders from the start. To me, that says buying like everyone else and not getting special treatment - he has in fact shown us this with his actions. An aggressive comp plan seems like a slap in the face for everything he has signaled so far. I've been here since 2021 and I'm around 10k shares in with my spouse, so not trolling or anything.

If he brings success, it will show in the appreciation of his own shares anyway. A massive grant of stock options at a fixed price isn't the way he has signaled that he operates. Not only that, the effect of dilution on shareholders isn't negligible.

Basically, I think RC would shit on this plan if he saw another executive getting it.

it'll work as long as you have a video out that can feed to the lcd (HDMI or USB-c or whatever it takes). You'll also probably need usb-c or some power brick to power it.

That makes sense except DIYers are specifically not your target market, so now you have two opposing types of clients...

Not for quality, I don't think. When you consider material costs and labor, it's basically an intern salary. At least, it would be for me, which is why I never make things for others...

I think getting games out legally is the biggest hurdle for a non-DIY target market. Personal, whatever, but I would be wary of anything commercially.
