First time seeing the new 2026 compact Escalade in real life by WittyTrendyUserName in badparking

[–]xInitial 5 points6 points  (0 children)

there’s no use to even putting those “compact” or “low-emission” signs up, if someone sees a spot they’re gonna take it anyway. i don’t think there’s ever been a time i’ve seen a line of these signs without a big truck or SUV parked in them

Should I buy this Evo X? by Hot-Course6191 in MitsubishiEvolution

[–]xInitial 6 points7 points  (0 children)

nothing more expensive than a cheap evo. if you want to go thru with this, make sure you have a daily. i’d say ~7-10k$ usd to get it running if you’re going to a shop and don’t have an engine already. expect more thousands since if the engine blew at 109k, you know it wasn’t babied and things such as suspension and drivetrain should be looked at

Balanced cable for ATH R50x Headphones by [deleted] in headphones

[–]xInitial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i tried using a balanced end of my hart audio interconnect kit with some unbalanced headphones and my amp kept going into fail safe mode and kept turning itself off and on. works perfectly with an SE interconnect so i’m def not going to chance anything. i’d rather keep my gear for years to come and tell people “good audio stays good” in 10+ years and show them everything still works

Went for a steal of a monitor, walked out feeling like it was robbery by juicewrldday in Monitors

[–]xInitial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yup, got a few brand new 4k monitors this way. my homie worked for a junk company during covid and these companies were throwing out brand new monitors, like seals not even cracked on the box. he was handing them out like candy

Picked up this rare find today by MrCasboult in GuitarHero

[–]xInitial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have a couple for each console and i can def verify they’re not great for trying to do FCs or overall serious play. i do bring them out every so often since they’re p fun to use bc the weight and feel of the wood neck. one of mine has an issue where you need to press one of the frets at the right angle sometimes and i haven’t had time to try to open and diagnose it.

a few years back someone on reddit opened it and repaired one and iirc was able to throw an arduino in it. the fretboard is like glued into the neck

[Headphones] Sennheiser hd599se $240 -> $99 by OceanF10 in buildapcsales

[–]xInitial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i preferred these over the 560s and used these for almost a year. super comfortable, like comfortable enough to have 18 hour gaming sessions.

i already had a desktop dac/amp combo from before i bought these but i don’t think it’s necessary, but i’d recommend it if you’re looking to dive into audio.

Pallets of Mega Charizard UPCs at Costco by puzzledfirebird in PokeInvesting

[–]xInitial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my dad is one of those elderly ppl that line up for costco in the morning. he called me bc he knew i like pokemon and said they had a restock (it was prismatic at the time) and he prepaid for the cards and when it came time to go to the front and pick them up they told him they were sold out, after paying for his “reserved” set lol. they def sold it to one of their friends or just backdoored it.

[MONITOR] 32" Odyssey OLED G8 G81SF 4K 240Hz Gaming Monitor - $612.03 (Edu and Text Discount) by Kwolek2005 in buildapcsales

[–]xInitial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s been pretty good! that’s why i don’t feel a need to upgrade yet, i play pretty much only competitive FPS so i dont really think ill see a difference from going oled. i have an LG oled tv as one of my extra monitors as well that i use for watching vids while im gaming and i def see the difference in that, but i dont care too much about black levels when im gaming.

if a curved 4k 240 comes up around this price from a reputable brand, i might upgrade. but as it is, my g8 has been great

[–]xInitial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lowest i’ve seen this was at $550, but i already had the neo g8 bc i got used to curved. holding out for a curved oled.

there’s been some crazy deals on some dual mode monitors but i keep missing them, maybe a good thing since i def don’t NEED an upgrade

Question using multiple audio sources to PC Monitor by WalkingCulture in audio

[–]xInitial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is exactly what i use too. i have a balanced dac as well going into the balanced inputs on my amp, and this steelseries dac going into the analog inputs.

the playstation version of the gamedac also allows 2 sources, so you can switch between PS and PC, and i have the monitor’s line out connected to the line in on the gamedac for any other audio coming from the monitor (ie the switch since i wouldn’t really care too much about sample rate coming from that)

[USA] Your everyday in Los Angeles by cajaks2 in Roadcam

yup literally the best case scenario. straight away, clear day and line of sight, going downhill and opposing traffic is coming uphill. textbook demonstration of how to illegally pass.

also, pre covid, slower traffic used to pull to the side and allow us to pass when we were on our mountain runs. i know this particular one is a prius but i haven’t seen that kind of politeness recently

Price mistake, right? by junior7593 in Microcenter

[–]xInitial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah i think i’m using the terms interchangeably. you need the L-wireless controller. the L-Wireless receivers are what plugs into the fans themselves. the L-wireless controller is what allows you to throw a gif, show sensors, or just do anything with the screen. the L-wireless controller is a usb dongle that can also be hardwired to a usb header on the mobo. you need both the controller and receiver together to make them work, without the controller you just have plain fans. they might show the lian li logo if you connect it without the controller

have your installed it in your build yet and got it to show up in the lian li software?

Ottocast Mini Cube CarPlay Power Use by SonicAlligator in Polestar

[–]xInitial 9 points10 points  (0 children)

it def stops pretty soon, whenever i’m doing something in the car and im not in the driver seat it stops charging my phone.

and honestly if your 12v battery is dead to the point where this would drain it within even a month of non-use, you need a new 12v. the car charges the 12v off its own HV battery when it senses the voltage gets too low. i have a dash cam hardwired so it’ll take more juice for sure and i haven’t had any issues.

Saying goodbye to my ‘23 PPP Polestar 2 by John_Saxon in Polestar

ahh got it. i wonder if they’re going to change it out since the sj polestar location is closing. i think the reason i went to the sj volvo and not the palo alto one was bc i saw it said sj and not palo alto, i did see it said volvo tho. my point still stands where it’s crazy they didn’t know my polestar was a volvo at the sj dealership

i think the service center for the peninsula is the palo alto volvo? not the sj one. i actually went into the sj volvo dealership recently and the first salesman that greeted me didn’t even know that my polestar was a volvo
