I've never used a gyro controller before and I'm probably thinking about it a little bit differently than normal, but let me know if this is possible in general and for Doom: The Dark Ages specifically:

1. Flip the controller towards me to raise my shield - basically map "point the controller to the ceiling" to a keybind.

2. Push the controller forward quickly to throw my shield - map direction and speed to a keybind.

Does this sort of thing exist in gyro controllers and games?

So I've been using the official google stand for awhile now: https://store.google.com/product/pixelsnap_ring_stand

But I'm looking for a recommendation because it's starting to break (the screws are popping out)

I don't use this as a stand, I usually put 2 or 3 fingers through the ring so I don't drop it accidentally.

So I don't want a tiny 1 finger ring like most, I need this "full size" ring and rounded so it doesn't cut into my fingers.

Any ring stands you would recommend for me?

I've seen this swing both ways. Some say they are synonyms, others say they absolutely can be treated differently.

Flawless would mean "no weaknesses", but may be missing "nice to haves".

Perfect would mean no weaknesses and having all known "nice to haves"

The context for this would be in casual work meetings use as "high level, non technical" descriptions when comparing techniques. The people involved would be your stereotypical not-technical North American office worker.

Can't believe I'm actually asking this, but is there a black smart plug you would recommend?

I use white TP-Link Tapos, but something similar in a black case is entirely rare?

Is this one any good?

I want a small evaporative unit for a 300sqft room that is electric baseboard heated.

Never used an evaporative humidifier before, are they only good if they are large ones?

I haven't done any SFF/miniITX for over a decade now, so I'm a little bit out of the loop.

I've always been super into "super minimalism"; when it comes to PCs, that means even reducing the amount of cables in your build.

Stuff like GPUs powered just by the slot and SSDs attached to the MB.

So, is anyone here into this? Any builds you can show me for inspiration and learning about components?

Is there a qi charger with a fan and/or a USB port?

I want the fan to keep the unit cool for overnight charging.

I want the USB port (preferably C) to daisychain another charger and keep my setup clean. I do not care if this affects charging speed at all.

Anything like this at all? I'd prefer a puck style (like apple) or a folding stand (like peak design)

Ive replaced a few wall outlets with USB equipped versions already, but I'm wondering if there is a wall outlet that includes a magsafe charger.

I currently charge my phone on a shelf+wall+outlet combo.

I want to make my setup stop protruding from the wall by having my phone vertically flush against the wall because the "outlet" is just a magsafe charger. I know it'll protrude out a little, but it would be a lot less than my horizontal shelf.

I am fine with losing the actual sockets themselves.

Does this product exist? (I'm not comfortable DIYING and would prefer a real existing product)

Like the title says, what is the correct way to insure cards being shipped to PSA?

Do shipping companies actually reimburse to the declared value? Do I declare the raw value or the PSA10 value?

I'm shipping from Canada and plan to use Canada Post. Let me know if the other shippers are better.

Pretty new to the hobby and I just learned that this is a thing.

Did I miss this for this year already? Or is it still coming up for Canada?

Does it get scalpered like everything else does?

I'm an "original" fan from the 90s and of the 151. But I've been away ever since.

Jolteon has always been my fav Pokemon and I wouldn't mind adding some cards to my nerdy collection of random things.

So, what is the best way to get my hands on Jolteon cards? (I think I saw a Jolteon climbing a skyscraper holo in a short - but feel free to recommend)

Are there any in-print cards left? Do I have to buy packs secondhand on eBay? I heard there are somethings called ETBs - can I get a Jolteon that way? How much would I be spending per pack? $50? $100?

(I'm in Vancouver if that makes a difference)

I'm sure the best advice is to simply buy the exact cards I want, but I'm a very "the journey

I'm using some noctua fans to cool my entertainment set cabinets. They're definitely powerful and quiet enough.

But, I was occasionally getting a finger/something poked into the fan. To stop that, I bought the noctua fan grill and put them in the FRONT of the fan with the included spacers.

With the grill in place, I noticed that the 'directional air flow' is completely gone, the air is just blowing 'sideways' instead of forwards.

I guess that's not the end of the world but I was wondering if there was a way to protect the fans front side and still have it shoot air out properly? Or maybe it's not even worth thinking about because the 'sideways' air is still moving the air inside my cabi

Anybody have a recommendation for super short 4k HDR HDMI cables?

Looking for something in the 4-6" range

So, I've been using my Google Assistant/Google Nest Hub Max to control my Philips Hue lights for several years now without a hub.

I truly don't remember what I did to add the bulbs to my Google home account, but I guess I must have clicked "add a device" in the Home app.

As part of the setup process, the bulb created its own wifi network and the Home app knows how to find compatible devices based on some sort of standard/whitelist?

Once found, the Home app shared my primary network login credentials with the bulbs "network chip". Now my wifi router has the bulb as a new client device?

Some my Google Assistants are on the same network as the bulbs, it can easily send commands as they're
