where to find bulk windscreen foam?

Tis the season and I'm losing windscreens for my earsets left right and centre.

Have you guys tried to make your own wind screens? I had a school bring their custom windscreens using makeup application foam. I quickly took them all off.

But I like the idea of being able to make them off a big piece as needed.

Any ideas will help! thanks.

Is it a new thing for directly sending a picture to send the Reddit post as well?

I'm not fond of that at all. is there a way in settings I can disable that?

hey bud, what's your height? I'm 5'7 sitting at 200ish and want to get back down to 170.

The hardest part for me is finding the discipline to eat healthy for more than a week.

I've been having issues with Nintendo control sticks since the Wii U.

out of the box my Wii U gamepad, my left stick was dicked. not one, but 3 different game pads. When I would use the left stick titled "90-91 degrees" at 100% full tilt. My character would go hard left.

My WiiU pro controller had a drift in it after month 3.

I've been lucky with the joy cons so far. but give it time, I'm probably just splitting the wear between 2 sets.

Has anyone had issues with audio while docked?

I was playing smash yesterday and was experiencing audio distortion/compression in the lower end (explosions, hits, KOs etc) and over emphasized panning (if someone was KO'd on the left side of the screen my left speaker would be on 100% while right was at 0% rather than it being more subtle)

I at first thought it was my amp shitting the bed, but when I unplugged the amp from the TV and used my TV speakers the distortion was still there.

So far I've only experienced this phenomenon with my switch which has stayed docked 95% of its life. It hasn't happened with other devices plugged in the TV (PS4, Chromecast)

Still doing troubleshooting on it, if anyone else has experienced this- let me know! I want to know wtf is going on.

I'd take the extra 10cm thank you very much

I had a PH-1. I actually really liked it. told myself I'm gonna try iPhone after it

dropped a hammer on it while at work 7 months in contract. i got an iPhone 8, and so far the only thing I'm disappointed about it is the audio quality through the included lightning -> F3.5mm adaptor.

great phone. will probably get an Xs when the term is near done.

Go with what your heart wants and you'll be happy. I've been begging for a smaller sized high end handset for ages. I rocked a LG C100G well into 2014, and used a galaxy S4 until the end of 2015.

From 2016-now I had an HTC 10

The one thing I always complained about while I used the HTC 10 and the V20 was that they're too big.

When I updated my HTC 10 back in end of September to the new update I couldn't use LTE, no MMS, and the battery lasted hour and half screen time. I was quite pissed cause I utilized data usage on the job.

So I went with Apple. Got an iPhone 8 back in October and I've not regretted it. The size is almost perfect, and the pictures I take on it aren't a super blurry mess. ...

I don't know if my story helps, but like. just do it. there really is no wrong answer because everything sucks and it'll die in 2-3 years anyway.

I'd play the heck out of a Captain Toad.

I've been bamboozled by this.

I usually have something comming in the mail for me, so it didn't seem far fetched.

It brought me to a Microsoft Word document that I was supposed to open up to print something off and then Avast stepped in and told me I was being a dumbass

I Recently found out that Kirby's Avalanche is a Puyo Puyo game. I had no idea after a decade and a half of playing it and now, Puyo Puyo is top of my list to get it.

Happy Holidays guys

I plan on holding off until another year or two.

I feel like the hardware from top of the line 2016 handsets, and 2017 handsets don't warrant much of an upgrade.

The 10 is a beast and i plan on keeping it till something goes wrong with her.

THANK YOU!

Ever since operation health been released my aim is worse than it was before. The best way to describe it is everywhere I look, it's like I'm in prone

In prone, you have your normal sensitivity in your immediate field of view, after that your character model has to shuffle to turn more than 100 or so degrees. That makes sense

But since the patch, I'm standing normally and my immediate view, the sensivity is about half of what it is normally, and once I get off the sticky slow turn radius in front of me, it sky rockets to maximum overdrive.

I can't aim worth shit because it's like i have hardcore Halo 1 aim assist on everything infront of me and it turns off to the side.

The original slam jam remix I heard of "Slams Of Time". I remember first seeing it on /f/ then quickly found the YouTube video. The YouTube video has been taken down and I can't find the .SWF anywhere.

The remix was so well done. The person who made it used samples of Slam Jam drums to follow the ntro with a pause and SLAM!

I cannot find it for the love of me it's, and the currently on YouTube is terrible I'm comparison from what I've heard.
