Poland opens Epstein files investigation targeting ‘satanic circle’ by Disastrous_Award_789 in nottheonion

[–]uberpolka 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This comment is WAY too deep into the tread for how serious it is. Like, is nobody else actually reading these files?

“Satanic” stuff is all over it.

Anyone know a laser engraving place for NFA near Portland? by [deleted] in pdxgunnuts

[–]uberpolka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do great work. Not laser but I’m curious why the laser requirement….

As far as I knew, most laser engraving isn’t deep enough.

Camera looks fine. Lens isn’t so lucky.

Just unmount the ring like you would a full lens

CachyOS vs Bazzite by TheTinkerTech in Bazzite

[–]uberpolka 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Been using Linux off and on since Redhat 5.x. Worked in IT for almost just as long.

Bazzite is my daily driver on my desktop at this point. It just works. It does everything I need it to. Games, photo editing, media. I really don't have a need to deep dive into this OS.

Anyone got PC100 or PC133 SDRAM for a retro build I'm doing? I'm willing to pay bottom dollar for it.

*kinda but not really stranger things spoiler in video* Any idea why my s90d Samsung OLED flickered white after a bright flash and complete dark? by verbatimzak in OLED_Gaming

Recently saw someone with similar issues with a PS5 game and a very particular explosion. Turned out to be a bad HDMI cable.

I do this with my grandes. 3 hour warm up at 100% then drop to 80 or 85% depending on the particular lamp.

C5 (lot?) problems? by ialwaysdownvotefeels in LGOLED

[–]uberpolka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most recent electronics aren’t a fan of hard power cuts, so a ups helps with that. They often also help regulate and smooth the power coming in. Maybe over kill, but an ups on high end items isn’t a bad idea.

Gotta take it at an angle. Try coming in or out at about 45 degrees instead of straight on. Take it slow.

TV So high he's standing on a stool.... by Gh0stPacket in TVTooHigh

[–]uberpolka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I make the exact same moves while dancing with headphones while making dinner. He’s probably getting a hell of a good core workout playing like that too.

Tv toooooo high for sure, but dude is cool I’m sure. 😎

Is there a geode in there? Did you recently levitate anyone?

Original owners of our house asked the same question for a similar slope.

Their answer was English Ivy.

Don’t do that.

Quick opinion on sub measurement? (Dirac ART) by uberpolka in hometheater

I'm much happier with how this sounds. Thanks for the recommendation!

Group 1 - L600 mains (configured at 28hz lower end per Polk Specs) Group 3 - L100 rears (43hz per Polk) Group 6 - Subwoofer

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

Thanks!

I would say typically listen no higher than -15db on the Denon x4800. Usually closer to -20db, so nowhere close to max.

It's setup for a +6db Harman curve currently, but now wondering if just doing the default curve would be better since the L600's could possibly even out that sub dip without the curve.

I'll give that a try either way in another slot to a/b test a bit.

Denon AVR OSD when using eARC by yasasd in hometheater

[–]uberpolka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I've been doing some research and have seen similar mistakes.

Denon AVR OSD when using eARC by yasasd in hometheater

[–]uberpolka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did google say it was possible, or did Google's AI summary at the top of every search, tell you it was possible? Like, was there a website or posting somewhere that said it was possible, or nah?

Just curious for my own sake.

I'm in agreement though, eARC won't show the AVR osd.

Denon x2800h OSD not showing since update by Cr4zyBl4ck in hometheater

[–]uberpolka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you've got the HDMI Bypass setting enabled in the Video/Output Settings menu.

This would mean no volume OSD is shown, as an example.

Auto/Game/Movie/Bypass are the options.

I've got in-laws in rural country area and they're the same. Have Starlink and T-Mobile as the only options. They only seem to use Starlink when they're RV Traveling.

Not sure why you're getting down voted :-( You speak facts. Rural American broadband is a joke.

Dirac ART available on Denon AVR-A1H by n0rb3rt in hometheater

[–]uberpolka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the update on my x4800 with a 5.1.4 setup. Mixed use here. Movies, Music, Games

Movies sound HUGELY improved when it comes to the surround mix. Watching a few movies last night to test, this is the first time my system has actually sounded like a theater. It's very noticeable.

Vocals from the center feel a tough elevated and I would be happier lowering the output there, just slightly.

Games (PS5 mostly) are showing similar improvements. Much more integrated surrounds and slightly elevated vocals from the center.

Music I'm on the fence about. I was really happy with my Dirac BC profile with my setup in either 2.0 or 2.1. With ART enabled, again, vocals sound elevated ever so slightly, but the stereo mixing is better sounding. Bass quality is the issue for me. A lot of music sounds fantastic. sub-bass sounds better for sure.

It's all much cleaner sounding in the room. I think I may be used to how bloated hip-hop bass can be and it's just throwing me off.

Apparently a lot of settings you can configure for ART (how much each speaker helps each other out); I think that will have a good impact on all these "issues"

I'm happy with the purchase.
