Best solution for dualsense battery life

I am wondering if there is an external battery you guys recommend, a case mod or something else to deal with how the battery only lasts a day or so

9060XT pc performance, looking to buy

So i downloaded the demo from steam and noticed it locked me into FSR mode (greyed out the option, couldn't change it), also seems the 120fps was either wrong or it was microstuttering, either way, looked like an arcadey ps3 game as opposed to a modern AAA title, is the full game this bad on PC, anything i can do to fix this?

First college espresso setup? [$150]

Ok, budget isnt a hard 150 as I have at least 1 roommate who is onboard and I need to talk to him about what we will get and who will keep it, but we want to get into lattes (mainly pumpkin spice, gingerbread and peppermint). What is a good setup for us to start with, I already know about the Walmart mainstays machine exists, but I am guessing there is a decent upgrade with not a ton more money over that. What should we expect to spend or machines to look out for used, is a grinder setup that important or is pre ground Costco coffee acceptable for us. also if anyone has a favorite source for flavor syrup, would be appreciated.

2 different sellers sold elswhere

So i just got on swappa and have twice tried to buy a ps5, and both times, the sellers have backed out and told me they sold it elsewhere, is there any rule against this or way to report them, seems like a very slimy used car salesman thing to do.

Tread/life on Factory Tires (25 hybrid LE)

So, I just got my car in for a tire rotation at around 14.5k and they said I was at 7/32 on all 4, I know if the tires are 10/32, that would be alot of wear for that mileage, I do not drive aggressive, mix of both city and highway. anyone know what they are from factory (I know they like to have shallower tread for alot of reasons) or at what point did you have to replace the factory tires. 25 LE hybrid, 16 in alloys and yokohoma avid GT

Anyone got a cheap dashcam that was an easy install

I am looking at Temu and alibaba because I care more about getting clips of dumb stuff going on than liability because the car has a datalogger and even a basic video will help there. I saw some that are integrated into the sensor array for TSS, anyone use those or get something else they like for cheap? College student, so cheap dashcam is better than none

Are cybertrucks immune from laws or is ISP just not doing anything

Was just driving from near downtown to the car suburbs of Chicago and why do cybertrucks drive in the left lane these days, it isn’t legal and I have recently seen ISP out at literally every on/off ramp and the aircraft are doing their thing, but cybertrucks all seem to be allowed in the left lane, wtf?

Attached resources that show left lane restrictions in IL apply to pickups, not just semis https://www.illinoistruckcops.org/post/a-truck-is-a-truck-of-course-of-course

XM5 vs APM (intermediate audiophile)

So I have the sony WHCH700N and looking to upgrade my cans (i also have APP2 fwiw and love the sound) but idk if it is age or hearing better stuff these days, my WHCH are starting to sound muddy. Comparing the APM at $449 to the XM5 at $248 (seems best value from sony).
XM5 pro/cons
pros: weight, cost, battery life
cons: I hear ANC isnt as good (hard to measure when I was in best buy) touch controls
APM
pros: I think they sounded better, but i am not sure if I was telling myself that or objective, also hard to tell since i couldn't pick demo songs for the sony, apple ecosystem, better ANC, physical controls
cons: weight, cost, battery life isnt as good
I think it was hard to judge weight because of the cable on the demo being that short that i had to slouch a bit, but I think they sounded better than my APP2
also I did find the sony controls annoying and wish they had physical controls.
anyone have input, does the weight get better or worse as you get used to them? I noticed the weight on the APM, but idk I could objectively tell because the demo cable was more restrictive and a few songs won't give me a good idea of how it would feel.
I also have an iphone 13 and would be open to wired and spotify losless

Looking to upgrade from WHCH700N and QC35II

So I have mained those 2 since 2021. Looking at maybe a Sony xm4-6 or AirPods Max
I do like my AirPods Pro 2 for context and I think the WHCH sound quality has degraded over time, looking for a profile that’s more music tuned, have target, best buy and micro center to try stuff and willing to shop around for best prices, no hard budget (not looking to pay full price for the max), but I would likely wait for prime day and I am not set on buying new headphones, just feeling like it might be time for an upgrade
And this is walking around in a city or college campus for context of my use for ANC, I don’t exactly like the qc35 anc, just feels strange on my ears

looking for a microfridge for my desk

just looking for a small, cheap fridge for my desk that maybe can store a few cans, doesn't have to be fridge temps and I am ok with thermoelectric, a bonus would be if it has a 12v for road trips.

I am a junior studying accounting in Michigan, my school had something for a local business that needs a bookkeeper to do remote quickbooks stuff (by small I mean under 100k in revenue), I said $16 an hour. (Min wage is $13.73 here and VLCOL, median income of 26k, but I live in Chicago where nothing is less than 16) how much did I screw myself, or am I just on the lower end of acceptable
