Getting a little better at rolling
  • This is the way. I'm a little bit spoiled and just use preolled cones. But you can still fuck it up. I have real good luck with a 10-12" poking stick, sitting it inside the cone, and then pouring my bud into the funnel. This way the poking stick is preventing the bud from falling until I pull up on it and twist letting only a little bit of bud at a time to fall to the very bottom, tamp down on the bud that fell, and repeat 4-5 times depending on the size of the joint.

    Packs it evenly and you don't get that weak spot right after the filter where it never gets packed down.

    As some carmakers run from Apple CarPlay, Porsche embraces it
  • I would much rather a car manufacturer focus on making sure the hardware is nice to use rather than coming out with some Ass-software that they came up with in house. Also, I’m going to connect my phone to the radio anyways so why reinvent software to make it less compatible then the native software my phone manufacturer has already R&D’ed pretty well. I assume there is some licensing bullshit with either CarPlay or Android Auto that could be playing a factor. But I would still rather the manufacturer focus on a nice feeling, high refresh rate, bright display rather than focus on some new clunky interface they develop.

    Port Forwarding - Should I? and which VPN?
  • I’m in the states and just use Private Internet Access in conjunction with qBitTorrent. You can make qBitTorrent use the PIA virtual network interface only. I believe PIA also has a kill switch to keep data from bypassing the VPN. I will say that I have never setup port forwarding for my VPNs. I have port forwarding setup for other hosting services I have, but PIA was a one stop shop for me and I haven’t had an issue with their service for 2+ years. Unsure about how it does with streaming!

    Couch co-op is finally making a comeback?
  • Oh wow. We’ve really enjoyed the single player experience. Just comparing our story’s is really fun to see how it differentiates.

    I guess once we give co-op a go, it’ll be with new characters we aren’t tied to and knowing it may not be the best experience. Edited to try it!nonetheless! But thanks for the insight and tips. Hopefully some of the issues get patched up!

    Couch co-op is finally making a comeback?
  • Also interested to hear! Wife and I have our own games going separately right now for our first play though but we’ve talked about co-oping. Interested to hear the couch experience!

    Baldur’s Gate 3’s Patch #1 Notes Reveal It’s Making Easy Mode Easier
  • This is how I started BG3 as well. I ran through the beginning “map area” as a Druid support and it was NOT the right call for a first-time Baldurs Gate player(or at least me). Once I got through the first “map” area, I restarted the game. I chose a more damage friendly class(rogue) and pretty much steamrolled after that. Now that I know that game enough, restarting helped me see some hidden areas I missed or things I just walked passed because of not knowing. 100% would recommend this. I think I was 15 or so hours in. But I quickly got back to my same progress maybe 12 hours in.

    How to seal this open duct?
  • It’s hard to see what this is but if it’s just ducting, they sell end caps for radial ducts at big box stores. You would stick that on the end and wrap it with some aluminum HVAC tape. But it’s not really hurting anything as it is. Probably just vents outside.
