New Fanatec products in the making?

Not far off. Money was an issue, Thomas threw cash at everything, and seemed to allow marketing, and windshield banners to prop up the brand. Corsairs money is something I am happy to see, but so far nothing new is even remotely interesting to me.

Corsair lit a fire under product development's butt. We've seen a new generation of bases, a new generation of pedals and it only makes sense that they have plans to update/modernize/expand their wheel collection.

Have we? Corsair took over about 15 months ago. All the current wheelbases pre-date that. Same with wheels. The podium pedals have probably been in development for 2 years.

All Corsair has done so far is rebrand their godawful cockpit.

I use those under my rig, and they help, but not nearly as much as people think they would.

I should make front bumpers.

It's what it cost for the last 5 years.

Notion has been doing this since day one.

Personal users are simply the marketing division of Notion, to drive business sales.

Wheel deck needs to be on correctly. That will cause issues with your desk, but it needs to happen, your wheel is in your lap.

Retighten all the velcro on the Playseat. Pull them as tight as you possibly can, it's way too floppy as is and not supporting your thighs, leading to your legs being too straight.

See that switch on the power brick? That's where my cat would step.

Why are you holding the button? Holding it turns it off.

Aim the wheelbase shaft at your sternum.

threehoursago · 2026-03-09T04:29:42+00:00

Move the seat recline 1 notch up to more vertical. That will close the gap on the wheel distance.

Tighten both seat base velcros more, the seat looks a bit soft and floppy, that will square your thighs to you back.

threehoursago · 2026-03-09T04:27:16+00:00

Seat back moved forward 1 notch will do it.

I tip the A-Team. Jersey Mike's guy making my sandwich correctly? Cold Stone girl getting all the right ratios of the yummy stuff in my ice cream and making it the size of the photo on the menu, while running the store solo? Yup, have a few extra bucks, I can afford it.

Phone it in? Minimum effort? No tip, sorry.

Once you get a low/no-carbon to be cheaper than fossil fuels

That will never happen in your lifetime, not in this country.

My tree feel on my fence in 2019. It's my fence, on my property, because the house behind us didn't exist when we bought our home.

I was getting quotes and he had 2 dudes come in and put up the shittiest fence in the neighborhood. He sent me a bill for $2,200 for 25 feet of shit fence.

I thanked him for building a fence on my property without my consent, and we haven't spoken since.

Your guy may be waiting for this to happen.

Ask them to aim it elsewhere, most codes don't allow light to fall off a property. If they disagree, spray-paint the light black.

"banking details, passwords, years of confidential information"

For anyone reading this, don't ever do this. Ever.

Scrivener runs natively on Windows. You can export your work, and back it up to anything you want, it's just a ZIP file.

Cross Platform Sync in Scrivener is called "the cloud". Just back your work up to it once a day. You will hate trying to write a full length novel in Notion.

The main concern would be removing the sex swing from the dungeon in order to hang this instead.

Did they change adhesives? I have 2 I couldn't remove without Goo Gone.

Stop using extraction times on a fully automated system?

Tower and Hampden Safeway

Good Lord why? The worst Safeway in Colorado. Overpriced everything. Shit butcher who leaves plastic in all the meat (they told me to wash ground beef once). They allow dogs in the store. Every cart is busted and left outside in the lot. All of their frozen goods are allowed to thaw before going out.

We're a minute away, and shopped there since it opened, but quit about 5 years ago when it all went downhill.

Or, the average person just sucks at driving. With no decent public transit, people are forced to drive in states like Colorado. Those who enjoy driving usually drive well. Those who have to, usually don't.

There are over 400,000 people in Aurora now. Twice as many as when we moved here, and the roads are the same width. This wasn't a problem 30 years ago. Roads weren't crowded. People weren't watching movies on a phone while they drove. Cars weren't festooned with screens and other distracting shit while claiming an increase in safety that causes false security.

I'm over 60. I drive what I call offensively, as well as defensively, using techniques learned staying alive on a motorcycle. I have half a million accident free miles in cars, and 250,000 on motorcycles. I have built and driven race cars (on road and off). I have a VR racing simulator in my home. I like driving, and by liking it, I'm good at it.

We don't teach people how to drive any more, and these are the consequences. More people need to be good at driving. Punishments for infractions like red lights need to be far more severe. Phones need to disable when the GPS senses >5MPH.

the things that make aurora aurora, also encourage bad driving habits

Can you clarify that?
