    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Picked up a sliding pedal mount for £40 in a sale recently, it's made such a difference to have easy fine adjustment on the pedal position. Definitely ready for a wheel upgrade now. It's still so, so much better than a controller but I've got to the point where I want some detailed feedback...

    "Full service history" Um...... riiiiiight........

    3 year burn-in warranty on the Alienware too, which is nice.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    I’m more thinking of the difference OLED makes compared to LED, the contrast and blacks are so good. I think micro/nano LED is supposed to get close but not quite there. My current monitor was a very good one at the time (ROG Strix XG35VQ) but compared to the 42” TV on the Xbox it’s nowhere.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    IIRC the Alienware AW3423DWF was supposed to be the pick if you want something a bit smaller. I keep looking at these new generation OLED ultrawides ever since I got an OLED TV for my XBox, they just look sooooo good.

    Robocop - Rogue City

    Yeah I was having real trouble with the main gun, until I remembered that one of my buffs was frag bullets. Yeah, probably not ideal for that mission 😂

    Robocop - Rogue City

    I ended up just wading in there and punching most of them to death, because they had handguns and I’d buffed my armour so they were basically just amusing squishy things 😂

    Robocop - Rogue City

    Finished it. @Darren S your review is 100% spot on. By the time I'd upgraded to auto-heal, full armour and 50% of the combat tree I was basically unstoppable unless I did something incredibly stupid. Glad I played it, can't see me going back to it, worth what I paid.

    BMW M5

    37k is a pretty strong offer IMO, I'd bite their arm off if I was looking to sell to the trade.

    BMW M5

    Any chance at all of a price starting with a four would come from low mileage and everything else being spot on, but if the service history is not right, plus it’s been run on the cheap and chavved up too….. Mmmmm Davanti tyres. If it has decent ones on the back the understeer must be truly...

    The 'I work in I.T' thread

    That's fair, but again it's not us, we can use any current mainstream browser. Chrome is what they chose. Sitting on an old version with a stupid bug in it is also their choice. This is a big financial institution so it's locked down tighter than a gnat's chuffhole.

    The 'I work in I.T' thread

    Oh if it's tales of tech support you want I got 'em. We are currently having much fun with a customer. Keep in mind that we don't do end user support, this is talking to an actual IT team. They keep getting an error message coming up when using our application. It's nothing to do with us, it's...

    damaged mp4 help

    Could you search for an MP4 from another drone of the same model? Maybe ask on an owners FB group or forum for a sample one from someone?

    Old Games Collections.

    That was brilliant - highly recommended for anyone into retro games or computers. Plenty of hand-on stuff as well as a really strong collection of historic machines. I’m going to start volunteering there.

    BMW M5

    They should put the badges and exhaust back to standard for a start, what’s on it now will put off a good chunk of the market. Anything with a hint of being barried is an immediate scroll on by for a lot of people and it’s not a rare car. Tough sell as a private sale too, people tend to want...

    Old Games Collections.

    I’m going to RMC - The Cave this weekend https://youtube.com/@RMCRetro?si=vAN4bBG1TlBAGa3f Looking forward to some serious retro geekery. They have a retro arcade machine museum on the same site too which I did about a month back - great memories but it was a bit claustrophobic for me so I...

    New, Fully Electric Renault 5

    They have absolutely nailed it. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a positive reaction online to any car, let alone a woke, virtue signalling, child miner killing EV ;)

    The 'I work in I.T' thread

    I'm currently redeploying a customer's production cloud environment for an upgrade. a) I left this stuff behind years ago for a reason, it's boring yet stressful b) It's PAINFUL. Ancient product stack (OpsWorks :ROFLMAO: ) and manual actions all over the place I'm therefore posting on CS while...

    Robocop - Rogue City

    I'm probably only about half way through it but I mirror that thought. I'm enjoying it but combat is clunky - it should at least have the ability to snap to cover. A lot of the side quests are just annoying filler but I feel like I need to complete them to get the most upgrades. I know the...

    The 'I work in I.T' thread

    Oh god yeah, my favourite is when you have a customer who screws you down to every detail of a contract, but then absolutely loses their s**t when they want something outside the contract for free and you say no. Live by the sword and all that

    They never made a Mondeo that was bad to drive, ridiculously good cars for the money (y)

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Not really, no. Since everything has gone SSD it’s not a concern. I mean, I’m sure there’s a measurable difference somewhere but it’s absolutely minute.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Demon Tweeks have a nice fanatec setup which they claim is in stock. It’s a grand mind you, and you have to buy a steering wheel to go with it 😂 It’s got the 8nm DD wheel base and the load cell brake pedal though. Not sure how it compares price wise with buying direct, probably worse, would...

    Yeah, but spaces or tabs in your code, that's the question.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    On the refunds from Fanatec, they use the actual exchange rate but PayPal and credit cards generally have worse rates so the purchaser often loses out. It sucks, but not really their fault, currency fluctuations are just part of the game when buying abroad unfortunately. If only there was some...

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    Not hugely surprised, I watched a couple of their vids recently and it’s just very meh. Ethan, Alex and Jack made a good team but without Alex it’s like losing Clarkson from TG and the other two carrying on.

    Win 10 password cracking

    I believe it It should be fine, because you can still authenticate with your MS account password if the PC is offline so the password must be stored locally for that to happen. Could be wrong though, still learning this stuff.

    Win 10 password cracking

    This is exactly the s**t I got into IT for, I've been wasting my life on boring stuff..... My PC is currently trying to guess the correct password from a NTLM dump. At least I know the cooling is good, GPU is maxxed out at 100% load and has been all night, but the temp is sat rock solid at 72C...

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Unless you really want to build one yourself, and it's something I like doing so I totally get why you would, for the convenience and warranty cover I'd probably go prebuilt for how much little extra it usually costs. But if you want something custom or tailored exactly to your needs, self...

    Win 10 password cracking

    You arse ;) That's quite tame though, standing joke at one place I worked was "tell the newbie to open a shell, cd /, rm -r *". It's all fun and games until someone actually starts typing it and you have to charge across the office going "NoNoNoNoNo" :ROFLMAO:
