Anyone got or tested the LS9000 and have any comments on it and vs 9400?

I'm looking at a 2nd hand TW9400 or going for the LS9000.... I'd lose my 3D which I still find fun to do on ocassion, but 1080 3D is a noticeable step down after 4K anyway.

No comments please about its not native 4K it's pixel shifting blah blah blah. Just looking for those with real world experience of both, not someone telling me I should get a 20K JVC 😆

Spyderco Bushcraft UK in G10, factory edge + BushGear Leather Works custom sheath.

The one knife I swore I’d never sell, but sadly circumstances require it. Never sharpened, only stropped and knife and sheath have never left the house. Mirror finish on grind from loving stropping 😆.

Has been stored with blade oiled as is 01 steel, has Zero pitting and blade is pretty much as new, very light scratches that are near impossible to catch on camera but have tried my best. Only one very small discernible blemish on one side near tip, but not pitted. Could be buffed out. G10 handle is mint.

No idea where original sheath is, I thought it was crap and didn’t really hold the knife. Comes with custom cross draw sheath that cost just shy of £100. Fit is reassuringly tight while allowing for easy removal.

£425 including RM special delivery for knife and sheath.

How are the HL2: Ep 1 VR mods soooooooo taxing on my system?

I would say I have at least a fairly respectable system. as per above, with a Quest3 on VD with a PUPPIS S1 at 2400mbps. Can run Alyx at Ultra without breaking a sweat, and ran the HL2 VR mod maxxed out with the 2 big HD texture and asset packs and it was butter smooth...

However, while I can run the base VR mod without issue, I had hoped to run with (an admitttedly high number of) subscribed asset and texture mods. The game slows to an unplayable crawl! And it practically freezes SteamVR when reloading the game if I can even manage to access the in game menu.

Has anyone else had similar issues? Are there mods that are known to conflict with each? Does anyone have a suggested 'working list' of the most essential asset and texture mods that don't impact the game in such a way?

THANKS ALL!

5 years after having an APPLE TV 4K + 4k projector, I learn in deep dive settings you can hard set frame rate to 24 fps!! (23.457 or whatever).

Always a bit annoyed with the slight judder of fast pans in films and TV but just thought it was something I had to live with, then a Facebook reel showed me I could hard set to a ‘film’ frame rate, and now pans are smooth and glorious!

Royal Mail have lost package I sold for £119. Was sent with prepaid label provided by buyer/ebay (simple postage program?), buyer/ebay only insured for up to £75, that would NOT have been my decision, I always over-insure!

As above...

Royal Mail have lost package I sold for £119. Was sent with prepaid label provided by buyer/ebay (simple postage program?), buyer/ebay only insured for up to £75, that would NOT have been my decision, I always over-insure!

Furthermore, as it was a prepaid label, I do not have a receipt for postage cost, I only have the tracking number and the QR code!

As I did not arrange the postage, I'm not sure how I make a claim, I think the buyer would have to make the claim, so who is responsible in this fiasco?

Help needed swapping trekking lever blades out for one finger trail blades on shimano m8100s!!

EDIT** So, i've now realised that the brake lever internals are not the same. FFS.... So how easy would it be to convert these t8100s into m8100s? is the main body of the hydraulic unit essentially the same and i just need a couple of additional internals? or do is the shell itself different?

and yes... i'm a dummy.

So I got a pair of euro 'left and right hoses opposite lengths' m8100s brake set for a very good price. Hoses didn't matter as I was and did cut fresh white hose lines to match the build. All good. But when I've popped off the securing bolt for the lever blade, there's no spring like on the 1 finger jobbies...

AND there seems to be a very long elongated piston attached to the pushing screw of the trekking blade! and it most definitely does not want to come out and seems attached to something that i can't see attached to it!

Have managed to get the whole thing back together, but I'm completely stumped how to proceed, and cannot find a service manual for the trekking blades anywhere to get a sense of what the hell is going on.... Can anyone here with experience of same, or with shimano xt of recent generations and trekking levers shed any light as to what the frack is going on?

**UPDATE: Drama over, used DOWLOADER to sideload an older version, so all good! Now to turn off automatic app updates on my other sticks in the house and my AppleTV 😆 🤦🏼‍♂️**

Total garbage update making it almost unusable. Removing the sidebar pinned libraries AND removing the option of ordering libraries is utter insanity. Whatever idiot did this should be sent to a gulag. Now, instead of a simple two left clicks and i have access to all my libraries in the order I want them, i have to do some 5 or 6 or more clicks to achieve the same objective using the libraries tab at the bottom and scroll down through most of my libraries to access the TV library and i THEN have to do a further two clicks to see the browse view. STUNNINGLY BAD. Who on earth makes these decisions? And stupidly the original view with the sidebar of personally ordered libraries still exists in both the web interface on a browser, and thanfully our main viewing device our Apple TV. Firestick in all our bedrooms now completely screwed.
