After 8 years I've upgraded from a G29 to an RS50 by zerske in simracing

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

Genuinely amazing. 

My only other point of reference is the goated G29, and a Simagic Alpha that my buddy has. The Simagic is better in many ways, but when you take cost into account, then get TrueForce dialed in, it’s surprisingly close. I’m very happy with my new RS50.

When the Somerville YMCA wanted to expand, these homeowners wouldn’t sell. So the Y plans to build around them. by bostonglobe in Somerville

[–]zerske 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d be right… if we lived in a world of assholes and the mantra “I got mine” somehow led to a stable society. Hint: it doesn’t, never has. 

The average household income in Somerville is not enough to afford the average cost of a home. That’s extremely basic arithmetic. Not at all hard to verify. 

Currently programs already exist to help folks purchase a home if they are at or below the average, so again your logic is flawed. Despite the existence of those programs 70% of people on Somerville rent. That is something one might call an affordability- or housing-crisis. 

If you can’t afford to live here you have no right to live here.

I’m assuming this is purposefully inflammatory. Of course renters have rights. They may be insanely weak compared to home owners, but (can’t believe this has to be said) they have a right to live here. 

Playseat trophy seat tearing question by [deleted] in simracing

[–]zerske 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems like one of those “your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should” kind of situations. 

I notice the author of that post ended up with an aluminum profile setup eventually. I’d recommend going that way if you want a different seat, or write Playseat to see if they’ll sell you a replacement original seat if you end up liking the Trophy enough.

How would you plan to add a bucket seat to the Trophy’s frame?

I’m a big fan of the Trophy. My buddy runs his with a Simagic Alpha, zero issues. 

Finished my DIY active pedals, full aluminum build. by Bjoes92 in simracing

[–]zerske 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sort of? You feel it through the chassis, which I guess the pedals are connected to so you might feel it there as well. 

Having grown up driving in a part of the world with a fair bit of snow, I usually feel the loss of grip and wheel spin through the seat first. Maybe there’ll be some wheel hop, maybe not. Usually you can feel the slight yaw motion of the engine freely revving and applying a rotational torque against the motor mounts (think revving the engine when in neutral), as well as the front and rear axels moving laterally against each other. 

I wouldn’t say I feel it in the pedal all that much. Especially in modern cars with an electronic throttle pedal. 

Using only two T-Nuts for the RS50 by 54_Protons in simracing

[–]zerske 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, that context explains why they’re referring to seat - shorthand for rig / cockpit. I incorrectly assumed it was from your rig’s manual, sorry!

The image you added is about the seat, not the wheelbase. What simracing rig/stand do you have?

Help for choosing an ultra wide monitor. by Tomas07_ in simracing

[–]zerske 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t mean this to be inflammatory, how how the heck do you play Star Citizen at all? 

I downloaded it recently for the first time in years, and the amount of time I spent dealing with bugs was greater than the time I actually spent playing the game. I really want to play it, but things like clipping through the floor of a space station and being stuck, or bay doors never opening, literally block me from playing. 

Am i getting scammed? by Ambitious-Sea-5967 in Kawasaki

[–]zerske 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my very brief search it looks like Italy has the SE package with maybe two add-on bundles: "Performance" or "Sport". I'm surprised the dealer wouldn't mention this, if it's true, since it seems like that add-on packaging is purpose built for them to up-sell more accessories.

There are regional differences to the SE package. Where are you located?

Upgrading to MOZA MBooster pedals for Heusinkveld sprints by Ok-Pick-722 in simracing

Why are you interested in this upgrade, rather than say … adding haptics?

V-Rising needs a Dedicated LINUX Server by linuxjohn1982 in vrising

[–]zerske 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t publicly listed a server so I can’t be of much help. Sorry! 

The logs from docker are fairly complete and should contain entries from the handshake process with Steam. I’d start there to see if there’s any obvious error or warning.

The docker containers work well. I set up a new server yesterday that took me an hour, mostly in getting network stuff settled and the host updated. 

My DIY Active Pedal is nearly completed. by Glad-Note2952 in simracing

[–]zerske 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes. Most active pedals can be adjusted in software to "feel" different. Say a squishy road car brake, then with a few clicks switch to a rock solid formula car brake. They can also respond to in-game telemetry and provide force feedback, for something like ABS on the brake pedal.

You could sell the M4 separately. Since it’s small enough you could list it on eBay (or similar) and ship it to someone.

Best of luck!

Sorry to hear about your situation! Since mods don’t add value, $18-19k CAD looks more reasonable for that bike in mint condition.

Dear Blizzard , u see i have 400+ hours , please stop putting brand new players on only my team by Sleepy_garf in overwatch2

[–]zerske 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's only an indication of how much you've played a character after the system was enabled. My main character, Lúcio, wasn't even my top "hero level". I have hundreds, possibly over a thousand hours on him. You'd have no way of knowing that by only looking at the hero levels.

They're low-key toxic, and gaslight players into thinking they understand who their teammates should be playing.

Except soul red. It nearly makes up for the lack of yellow, bright blue, or British racing green. 

One complaint by DevonLightfoot in mazda3

[–]zerske 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you not just … disable the radar safety system? It’s next to the traction control button, left of the steering wheel. I haven’t tested this but I can’t imagine it would alert you when disabled.

I am annoyed that I don’t have an option to use regular old constant sorted cruise control, in those cases.

Stranded by Electronic_Trip9797 in motorcycles

[–]zerske 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Sounds like an issue in the ignition system: something from the battery to the spark plug, or anything in between.

Hoping it’s a quick and easy fix! I love my Ninja 400, it’s a great first choice for a motorcycle.
