hey all, I've been using the Buttkicker Gamer Plus for a few weeks, and I must say it's honestly been a great addition to my sim racing setup.  For those who may not be familiar with it, this device allows users to physically feel sensations through vibrations. The Buttkicker Haptic System can replicate sensations like engine vibrations, tire slip, the texture of the road, and gear shifts, elevating the virtual driving experience to a whole new level of realism and engagement. **A more in-depth review, with pictures, [here](https://blog.elegast.me/enhancing-your-sim-racing-experience-the-buttkicker-gamer-plus-haptic-system/)!** TLDR! - Provides feedback where it is essential (tire slip, etc) - Performance Boost: Improves driving skills and lap times(I find myself at a negative delta when its turned off, eventually I get back to pace) - Considerations: It makes noise, so depending on living situations, it is something to consider. There are cheaper DIY options, but this is a complete no thinking solution. - Easy Setup: Quick and straightforward installation. - Customization: Fine-tune settings for personal preference, you can do this via iRacing directly or with buttkicker-provided software. - Optimal Feedback: with the controller, you can quickly turn it up and down which is nice - Verdict: Highly recommended for affordable immersion in sim racing.

hey all, I have seen a couple of comments discussing foldable simracing rigs. I've had the chance to get my hands on the Next Level Racing GT-Lite Foldable Simracing Rig, so I wanted to share some insights.  If you want to dive deeper into this, check out a more detailed review with more pictures [right here](https://blog.elegast.me/review-of-the-next-level-racing-gt-lite-foldable-sim-racing-rig/)! tldr: - Assembly: Putting it together is a breeze, and it's versatile enough to work with various setups. - Adjustments: You've got some flexibility in customizing your wheel and pedal positions, but the backrest angle is set in stone. - Comfort: It's pretty convenient, but it does make a few comfort sacrifices in the name of portability. - Space Savings: If you're tight on space, this rig is a godsend. It folds up neatly for effortless storage. - Conclusion: Looking for a robust and portable solution to bring realism to your sim racing adventures in a cramped space? This seems like a solid solution.

Hey all I'd really like to use pixelfed but I'm having an issue where I assumed that the followed hashtags would show up with posts on my home feed with those tags. However it does not seem to be the case. Is there a way for this to work that way? Thanks! edit: so it looks like the web has https://pixelfed.social/i/web/discover/my-hashtags but that only shows a rotating 3 followed hashtags. seems like a silly way to do that. it also does not appear to be accessible from the android app.

Does anyone mainly play iRacing but frequent Assetto Corsa? Do you notice a re-learning curve when you go back to iRacing? Do you perform more poorly in iRacing after racing in AC? Not like im top tier that it would really matter, but im curious how different others feel ac/iRacing are to be playing both comparatively.

Sim Racing Elegast • 1 year ago • 100%

Hey all! Just had an amazing time jumping back into Assetto Corsa after watching the Belgium GP this weekend. Ran some laps with F1 cars around Spa, and the experience was incredible! I'm running a couple different RSS and VRC Formula Hybrid F1 car mods. The highlight was playing with the rain and experiencing the mind-blowing effects provided by CSP (Custom Shaders Patch). The simulated spray from the tires made the race so immersive, I couldn't get enough of it! I can't wait for iRacing to finish their rain implementation, but for now, I'm more than happy to get my rainy fix in Assetto Corsa. Patience is key, and the experience is totally worth it! Happy racing! Bonus question: does anyone concentrate mainly on iRacing but still play AC a lot? Curious how much of a relearn it'd take to go back and forth between the two. If it would really affect my performance in iRacing. Not like im told tier so I guess who cares really.

I've Been running F4 and LMP3 mostly this season. Been having a lot of fun but after the F1 race this morning I bought the Dallara F3. Took it for a couple of spins around Laguna Seca and what a treat this car is to drive. I unfortunately only own a few of the tracks this season for it. So my use will be limited. But hopefully there are some tracks that overlap some of the series I end up buying tracks for next season lol Cheers!

I [recently decided](https://blog.elegast.me/transforming-your-old-tablet-into-a-racing-hud-display-for-sim-racing/) to implement an old tablet into my sim rig for the purpose of utilizing it as an external dash. After doing some research, I came about a program called "simhub" which allows for the simulation of various dash instruments. I have been enjoying the setup of the external dash and find it to be a great addition to my sim rig. The process of setting it up was relatively easy and I was able to quickly get it up and running.

Hey all, so in season 2 2023 I mainly raced F4 and had a really good time. Season 3 rolled around and I bought the new LMP3 and have had a lot of fun with that as well. I'm currently off this week from both series, but i'm curious what others think of the two cars. Obviously, they're a bit different, but after driving F4 on Laguna Seca, I had a huge draw to go back to f4.

A dark, imposing castle with weathered stone walls, rusty iron, and forbidding doors stands in a mysterious landscape. Inside, dimly lit rooms, flickering torches, and eerie shadows await. Treacherous stairs lead to strange objects, faded tapestries, and whispers. Danger looms, anticipation rises—something horrifying awaits.

Trapped in a shrinking room, fear consumed me. Every glance intensified the chilling sensation of being watched. Harsh fluorescent lights cast ominous shadows, amplifying my unease. I frantically moved, desperately seeking escape from an unknown threat. Claustrophobia tightened its grip, suffocating hope.

Hey all, but I've been enjoying browsing "local" in some of my instances and I'm looking to join a more specific example and was curious if there are any heavy motorsports related. F1, imsa, wec, anything. I'm already subscribed to a bunch of those communities as well. I guess I'd have that as a discovery-type mechanic. Bonus points, English-speaking Netherlands-ish instance cheers.

Hey all, I decided to try setting up matrix/synapse via cloudflare tunnels. I was following [this guide ](https://fossengineer.com/selfhosting-matrix-synapse-docker/#deploy-and-expose-matrix-server---through-cloudflare-tunnel) http://192.168.1.2:8009/_matrix/static/ shows >It works! Synapse is running as does https://matrix.example.com/_matrix/static/ https://matrix.example.com/.well-known/matrix/server comes up with `404. Is anything ever truly *well* known?` and matrix/synapse container shows 401 unauthorized when trying to access public rooms `synapse.http.matrixfederationclient - 676 - INFO - POST-87644 - {POST-O-3} [matrix.org] Got response headers: 401 Unauthorized` federation tester is showing Hosts ``` _dc-srv.959fd81029a5._matrix._tcp.matrix.example.com. Addresses ``` Errors ``` SRV record target _dc-srv.959fd81029a5._matrix._tcp.matrix.example.com. is a CNAME record, which is forbidden (as per RFC2782) ``` can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm assuming this is still an issue with ./well-known or something. cheers

Hey all, I almost have it setup and working. Was able to login via element to my instance. DNS/SRV setup It passed the federation test. But I'm getting 401 unauthorized when I try and search for public rooms. I kinda know where the issue is. my set up is a little fucky due to my ISP blocking port 80. So I have an aws ec2 instance setup with a tunnel to my home-sever as well as a ngnix proxy manager setup to point to said home-server. Then I have the home-sever running matrix/synapse behind ngnix proxy manager. Example.com/.well-known/matrix/server comes up with 404 Example.com/_matrix/static/ works So I just have to narrow it down a little bit. The main reason I wanted to setup matrix was I was super interested in the android sms bridge, but after looking through the setup process it seems like a lot too. Not sure if anyone has seen any easier guide than the main doc. I have 80 and 443 forwarded on AWS, I believe I'd have to forward 8448 as well...? Still looking into that bit. Also, any better communities I could reach out to? Cheers.
