    National insurance cut

    100% agree. How people can conflate "the route of a lot of evil" with people needing medical care is... amazing. People say it like it's a bad thing, others uplifting their lives to change it for the better, but I feel like the second something threatens their way of life in the UK they'll be...

    VP Force Rhino - FFB Joystick

    Just a heads up that pretty much everything you pointed to as "not 3D printed" (cogs, input mounting plates, fan cover) is, in fact, 3D printed :D You had a chance to hook it all up yet?

    VP Force Rhino - FFB Joystick

    Yeah you will do. And there’s custom prints to cover the gear and belt.

    VP Force Rhino - FFB Joystick

    Ehhh 2 or 3 weeks I think. https://discord.com/channels/965234441511383080/965234441511383083/1169301199430881280 - not quite final yet. Walmis, the developer of the Rhino, is the progress of making this as a kit, so selling the 3D printed parts, motor and the VPForce FFB board that he made...

    VP Force Rhino - FFB Joystick

    Well... once you go FFB it's hard to go back. If it uses cams and springs, it's crap now :cool: Why do you think people are going down the FFB rudder pedal route as well :D

    VP Force Rhino - FFB Joystick

    1) I think shipping was free actually. Tally up your cost here http://order.vpforce.eu/ and add on 20% for your Tax if you get stuck for import duties (like I did) 2) Yes https://discord.com/channels/965234441511383080/1169287017268531225 3) 100%. Apart from the fact it would be a massive pain...

    Sanding wood floor

    Remember to get an edge sander as well, unless you’re removing the skirting. The speed at which it will obliterate your wood will depend on the grit of the sandpaper. Your finish depends on all the same reason that effect normal sanding, so you’re willingness to go up through the grits to go...

    Install Wordpress via Softaculous or not?

    Never had any problems with updates. I’m not even sure what issues you’d have… Softaculous is totally fine, and if you don’t like the bloat… then uninstall and do it manually. Just a head up, if you’re asking this question I’m assume you don’t have a lot of experience, but WordPress sites are...

    Google is your friend: https://www.carpet-underlay-shop.co.uk/collections/underfloor-heating-underlay/products/thermalstream-underfloor-heating-carpet-underlay-from-5-25-per-m2 Definitely an option, if you’ve got concerns get stuff that says it’s designed for it.

    The weather station thread

    Well this thread fulfils my "show me something I didn't know I wanted" requirement for the day :D Saying that, I'm trying to find an actual need... If there was any ability for it to help predict the weather I might be more inclined, but I'm struggling to find the value in this. How do people...

    CES 2024

    Still frustrates me that there's not a truely innovative TV design for commercial buyers… one without smart crap and speakers :D Give me a screen, and I’ll do the rest damit!

    Yeah, just wait for a sale. Coming often enough!

    New Universal Remote Suggestions

    Aaannnnd we've ended up in the same place as last time then? Nothing else to choose from... Such a shame that it's so slim pickings... Sofa Baton X1 seems like the closest one to my needs personally, but I can't get over the horrific usability of that back button in the top right hand corner...

    New Universal Remote Suggestions

    Had a look at this previously. My concerns are: 1) Why does the charging dock have to be the IR base station? It means I can't have my remote charging next to my seats OR I'm running IR extender cables around the room to get to my AV cabinet... 2) It probably does physically have enough hardware...

    New Universal Remote Suggestions

    Watching this thread with interest. I'm STILL using 2 x Harmony Companion Hubs in my house for all remote duties. Best remote ever made because it: 1) It doesn't have a touch screen so the battery lasts forever (can't remember the last time I replaced them) 2) No touch screen means all the...

    Bigscreen Beyond PCVR Headset

    This got me even more excited about BSB. Shame that the OpenXR implementation with this does support eye tracked foveated rendering, but at least it’s on the roadmap!

    VP Force Rhino - FFB Joystick

    No screens currently as I exclusively play in VR so not a necessity. Yeah, for heli flying it really is a game changer. The MSFFB is amazing on its own but you’re limited by the number of buttons, especially in the Apache MSFFB for old warbirds though - I’ve been using it since my dad bought...

    Laser Level

    I stuck with the Tacklife 30m SC-L04 but I can’t find it anywhere to link to. Even the Amazon link in my basket says “oops can’t find this” Ones that failed me were a Bosch and a RockSeed one, both again with links that fail to work - but it was the end of 2017/2018 that I bought them so not...

    VP Force Rhino - FFB Joystick

    Not sure if there's a better section for this but I thought some people here would appreciate this... Any sim racer is going to tell you that there's no point buying a steering wheel without it having Force Feedback, but that hasn't been an option in the flight sim space for some time (I THINK...
