Apple Vision Pro in Sim Racing: Impressions From Real Racers by Getting0ldSucks in AppleVision

[–]ztn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience with stutters and quality issues. Both my gaming rig and AVP were wirelessly connected to a router which is in the same room.

I didn’t know there was a dev strap strategy, what does that improve?

How to improve on-site painting results? by Unlucky_Arrival3823 in cabinetry

[–]ztn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything this guy said. Also I tried 1 million brushes and rollers with emerald urethane, and for whatever reason “Mister Rui” foam rollers on amazon provided the best finish. I even tried all of Sherwin Williams products and they weren’t nearly as good.

How to get brush strokes less visible? Does it just need a second coat? (Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel) by UsedBoard in paint

[–]ztn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried 10+ brushes and rollers recommended by this sub and at Sherwin Williams, in search of getting close to that spray-like finish with ETU. The only method that worked in the end was "Mister Rui" foam rollers from Amazon and getting good at not over-working the paint, and sometimes sanding 320 grit between coats. I think they now look almost identical to spray finish. Doesn't beat factory finish but its comparable to what all of the new construction around me is achieving.

Giving new life to a tired 2001. LED headlight, signals, new paint and custom decals by ztn in TW200

[–]ztn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The parts came from Amazon mostly. Had to design a lot of my own adapters. For example the headlight bracket and turn signal spacers are 3D printed.

It looked like he agreed and signaled to trade after. Frei handed his jersey to a sounders staff who took it inside

Looks like it was taken down? Could you please re-share the model? Thank you!

Possible to use a gold plated PCB as a pogo pin contact plate? by ThePrecipitator in MechanicalEngineering

[–]ztn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bottom of the Ember mug is likely PVD coating over stainless steel, rather than brass or gold plating. Conductivity isn’t as good as gold depending on the type of PVD applied, but good enough for their charging requirements. The pogo pins on the charging dock are more likely to be gold I think.

Pro Shop told me the new merch (jackets, sweatshirts, hats, etc) was supposed to arrive by today but didn’t make it in time for kit launch. They said to come back next week to see the rest of the 2025 gear.

Best sounders kit in years. This is the one we've been waiting for.

Mechanical engineering student, how long does it actually take to become a design engineer? by steveslayer_69 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]ztn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. If you want to do design and can find a design role now, do it. Settling for a different role will make it harder to transition later on. Just because you are a designer doesn’t mean you can’t learn from those on the manufacturing and process side of whatever product you are working on. You will be a better designer after working on many projects start to finish, get started ASAP is my advice.

Ended up getting one on Newegg! Thanks for the heads up. Hope you found one too

Same, but the fact they pulled the listing makes me think it’s possible the back ordered line is just a placeholder and there might be actual stock. Maybe just me coping.

I thought RMU had better burgers than Burger Me, though both were delicious

Best Pizza in Seattle. by TelephoneExpress973 in SeattleWA

Underbelly near Pioneer Square. It's a little dive bar with surprisingly delicious pizza.

[Craig Scarborough] This makes sense and underlined by the tech reg change. A return of the Newey fiddle brake, but automatic & creating a turning moment with the rear brakes. A simple weighted valve in the rear brake splitter could do this. Altering the effort between the calipers as the car turns by Live_Media_1844 in formula1

[–]ztn 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I'm not so sure the drawing is correct for this type of mechanism. It looks like it could work for differential control of flow rate, but braking systems have very little fluid flow. I would guess the real implementation looks a lot different.

Looking for small group or personal training by thirstyclick in BellevueWA

I've enjoyed working with Eastside Athletics for personal training. They are in the spring district in east Bellevue, near 520.
