Tijuana Bibliophile posted:Welcome friend, please share your Star Citizen story, this is a friendly space Thank you, kind SA person. It all started in the mists of game development time, 2012. I was eagerly looking for a new game to waste money on, when I heard a rumour of a possible comeback from Coding Guru - Christopher Roberts. I think I may still have a poster of him, or perhaps he is in my Scrapbook titled, "Coding Legends of the 80-90's- Where Are they Now?" Anyhoo, I digress. I eagerly jumped on to the Kickstarter site looking for said game, but hailing from a country other than the Unites States, was wary of said Kickstarter. The whole setup looked a tad dodgy. But word was afoot that CIG would be opening their own site, where donations could be donated for 'packages'. Once that occurred, I jumped straight on to donating for a 'Freelancer' package, as a homage to the mind numbingly brilliant job that 'The King of Code - Chris Roberts'™ had performed on the game with the same name (until the wet blanket, Micro$oft, spoiled the party) The rest, as they say, is history. I have been eagerly watching the refactoring of Star Citizen ever since. I still possess my package, as I really want that 8 Gig spaceship thumb drive. I stumbled upon this forum of like minded optimists, after googling "Is Dyson OK for performing fellatio" No idea what half of that meant, but I'm teaching myself Latin and it sounded like a fun combo. Thanks for listening.

Jobbo_Fett posted:They use repurposed aircraft-grade metal, yes, but the website that sells it ( or at the very least a diff vendor and same desk) claims they use "screwed rivets" which they claim is a thing for old planes, which I've literally never heard of. That's certainly bullshit, as aircraft are made using solid rivets and are hammered on the outside up against a solid surface. A screw rivet would never be used, due to vibrations causing it to become loose. For this and more information on aircraft building please visit http://www.icanbuildanaircraftinanafternoon.com

Jobbo_Fett posted:Ive seen rivets with what look like screw heads on the surface, but thats just due to the particular rivet and method of installing it, right? Its obviously not an actual screw rivet. A true rivet is quote:A type of permanent mechanical fastener, a rivet is any of multiple types of metal pins, used to hold together two plates of metal or other material. Upon installation, the headless end of a rivet is beaten out or pressed down to keep the fastener in place. A screw rivet is just a decorative nut and bolt, like this, So in conclusion I would like to say that that furniture site is sprouting BS as no aircraft would use a 'screw rivet'.

EmesiS posted:Good goons of this shithole. I need new headphones, as my current ones are leaking fidelity, and I do not know what to buy next. My energy for investigation is also lacking fidelity, so I need some assistance from the known audiophiles. Currently I am using a dated pair of Sony MDR-SA3000 and I would like something of similar quality. I'll budget something between a Phoenix and a Polaris and I like an over the ear profile, I previously enjoyed Sennheisers and Signets but I have been out of the sound and noise game for too long to know anything. I prefer the treble side of the sound range and I listen to lots of terrible poo poo but the most recent trends have Faith No More, Sublime, and Philip Glass in the highest rotation. TIA Have used Beyerdynamic for years on my ears, so I recommend the DT 770 PRO and up. That being said, I'd really prefer if you could listen to the headphones in person as one mans aural ecstasy is anothers 'arghhhh'.

Tippis posted:Comparing to the 1990s is a red herring anyway — it was the decade when a lot of genres were invented or at least formalised, but that happened because it could, not because games were abnormally great or different. It was just that before that, much of what was being done simply wasn't possible. So to use the rate of innovation as an argument why gaming is bad these days is just a cheap out… never mind that innovation is still happening. If anything, it just suggests that it takes a decade or two for a genre to be fully established, so it's hardly surprising if the ones that are arriving now have yet to find the same kind of audience. This guy gets it. I recently replayed Dune 2 and had a ball. It was as good as I remember when I played it on the Amiga.

Golli posted:So as an inevitable consequence of headphone chat, I got a pair of Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro and a Fiio E10K DAC/AMP. No. The old rule of thumb of 1/8th output impedance to headphone rule. So as long as your amp can output 31.25 Ω, you're golden.

reverend crabhands posted:What means this????? No mate, that amp is all good. From that you quoted, it would mean the lowest impedance headphones that amp would drive would be 4 ohms. From their page: quote:Max Output (33 Ohms) 613 mW So probably the simplest way to describe it is that the higher the resistance (impedance) of the headphones, the lower the volume.
