Why is everyone posting their battery health

leaden kiln
#

Someone started talking about battery

magic minnow
#

They should throttle us like Google does now after 200 cycles necoarcamazed

*400

Oh you can see that on pixels now too
Nice
Wish I could on my Samsung

new battery every year wow

marsh glade
#

I've had my phone three years now

rough osprey
#

im at 350 cycles after 11 months lol

marsh glade
#

Oh it's been 2.5 years only, not 3

#

But either way, I don't have any intention of replacing the battery after 400 cycles

#

Unless I get a spicy pillow I suppose

thick ermine
#

My phone is 4 years old and 77% capacity

#

it says to service it but I don't have any issues getting a day out of it

nimble arch
#

My previous iPhone, a three year old iPhone 13 Pro Max, was at 87% when I upgraded to the 16PM.

#

My 10th gen iPad doesn't show battery health for some reason.

#

As for my two MacBook Pros, 99% on the work laptop (M3 Pro) and 91% on my personal laptop (M1 Pro).

gusty kiln
#

Does android provide these types of stats? I haven't been able to find it in the settings

vagrant pagoda
#

most dont

gusty kiln
#

Shame

#

I know you can find battery stat on windows through the command prompt

#

But nothing for android

vagrant pagoda
#

depends on the laptop

#

i dont get cycle count

#

and it only gives last charge capacity

#

so if you dont goto 0% it wont give you a good reading

#

so amd is still making am4 x3d?

vagrant pagoda
#

yes i too watched the first 30 seconds

unkempt lake
#

x3d really carries weaker chips

#

its insane

#

really shows how important cache is

#

and how it's more important than core count or ghz

ashen spindle
#

The lower clocks really hurt the older x3d chips

#

Also it’s less they are making am4 and more they are still making Milan and bad CCDs can be used for desktop still

PS6 handheld rumors are popping up

tribal dirge
ashen spindle
#

actual handheld

#

its been in the rumors for ages with some more hardware coming up but still nothing concrete

tribal dirge
ashen spindle
#

maybe but more so to get people on playstation

tribal dirge
#

Yeah

#

I like the idea though

ashen spindle
#

probably 1:1 compatibility with ps5 low power games

#

because it would add up that they add the low power mode to ps5 and then you have a target that a handheld can reach so you could put the entire ps5 catalog of games on there, minus a few games that dont work with that mode

tribal dirge
#

Battlefield 6 might actually run on a handheld like that though!

ashen spindle
#

no I mean any ps5 game should work

tribal dirge
#

Ouhhhhhhh

#

Wait that's actually impressive (and sounds expensive)

ashen spindle
#

you're talking about a 2027/2028 handheld running games that were made for a 2020 console

#

so they could probably price it like a switch2

nimble arch
#

I’ll just stick with the Switch 2 as we’ll probably have an OLED model by then.

In the mean time I am mooching off my Friend's switch 2 to play the switch 2 exclusives

I'll be stuck waiting for my perfect windows handheld cuz I want to use game pass and play TFT which needs the riot launcher

tribal dirge
nimble arch
#

We’ve had Mario Kart and Donkey Kong so far

#

There’s a Kirby game coming later this year

ashen spindle
nimble arch
#

Plus the Switch 2 exclusive expansion for the other Kirby game which released on the 28th

ashen spindle
#

yeah but thats easier to add to a locked down handheld than if they were open like steamos

gusty kiln
#

Although TFT had already been ported over to android, could just emulate the apk

#

But the mobile ui sucks compare to the desktop game

ashen spindle
#

Fancier part for me about it would be the hardware anyway with AMD potentially really making use of chiplet reuse in the entire stack

gusty kiln
#

Higher margins hopefully mm

ashen spindle
#

eh, more hoping that they have a solid stack that allows for high end cards again kek

I'm burning more bridges than Razer burns motherboards by releasing this video, but I feel like it's my duty to share my story as a computer repair shop owner that has spent 10 years dealing with Razer's design flaws, greed, and planned obsolescence.

TLDR; Repairshop gets told to contact repairshop for spare parts, Razer won't sell to customers.

vagrant pagoda

like most places wont sell spares

thats common

hp/dell/etc will send you to a third party if you want parts out of warranty

reef patrol
#

Razer are trying to have their cake and eat it. They tell customers to not try and do replacement installs themselves or use aftermarket parts from alternative sources - but won't sell genuine spare parts either 😄

vagrant pagoda

so its not logictically easy to get spares

not for long since microsoft is kicking everyone out of the kernel

ashen spindle
#

riot literally talked about how they are working with MS to move AC out of the kernel

#

not to mention the crowdstrike incident

vagrant pagoda
#

the irony of crowdstrike is that ms had promissed defender would remove the need for software like that back when they made it

ashen spindle
vagrant pagoda
#

again belive it when it happens

ashen spindle
#

its been happening for a while

vagrant pagoda
#

ms has been over promising and under delivering for 4 decades.

#

ms will make it happen, but thier side will be half bakes allowing explit vectors still. so av/ac will have to go back to being spyware

ashen spindle
#

that would be something that could happen yes

vagrant pagoda
#

you think its more likely ms will actually make windows secure or they will do a half ass attempt?

ashen spindle
#

I think they will enforce it so they cant put something in and if its not working well enough people will start complaining to MS

vagrant pagoda
#

also you think it will actually effect hacks and cyberattacks?

#

or will it only effect av/ac

ashen spindle
#

I mean in the end they all work the same way

#

so its all or nothing

Last time I used Spotify, I had to manually set the client to stream 320 kbps as "high quality".

#

That was on phone and desktop.

gusty kiln
#

depends track to track

nimble arch
#

So you're going from something sub-320 kbps MP3 to lossless in most cases.

gusty kiln
#

some high quality 320 sound nearly identical to flac

nimble arch
#

Hi-Res Lossless and Dolby Atmos options on Apple Music also.

gusty kiln
#

spotify would have only 1 version of a track, while apple or qobuz have 2-3 different version of the same track

nimble arch
#

You do have to opt into Hi-Res Lossless. Dobly Atmos is a default, at least on Apple devices, if you're using AirPods.

#

Just checked the audio quality for Spotify.

#

I would say that even with AirPods on an iPhone, you'd hear the difference if your settings are the default for streaming quality. I believe automatic is the default for Spotify.

Outside of a few months using Spotify a few years back, I've been an Apple Music subscriber even since I replaced my OnePlus One with an iPhone 7 back in early 2017.

With Microsoft ending support for Windows 10, 2025 is set to be the biggest e-waste event in history. An insane amount of capable tech will end up in landfills due to "incompatibility".

gotta love having an incompetent ISP 😄

#

increased latency and getting only 1/5th of my speed I'm supposed to get

gusty kiln
#

are they a the only player in town?

plush stirrup
#

kinda, I have a 2nd connection rn that I'm testing but the latency there is also random, after a reboot I get 6ms but few hours after it goes to 10ms, not sure why if it's a bad line/street cabinet or if it's ISP related somehow, random latency increase shouldn't be the case

gusty kiln
#

copper or fiber?

plush stirrup
#

A is well obviously my current connection which I'm trying to find an option to replace, B is that option

#

sadly copper, but the signal values are the exact same before and after latency increase

gusty kiln
#

hmmm

plush stirrup
#

I tried another modem already, it happens on my own modem and ISP provided one

#

this latency increase from my current ISP makes online gaming basically impossible, and if I do go to dsl I might aswell get the lowest latency, I might switch to another ISP on monday and if that still has the same issues use my 14days term to cancel if needed.

#

I remember I've had that other ISP before and this issue wasn't present, I could also switch to another ISP on coax... buut the street is at 87% load during evenings, so currently the issues seem routing related so it would fix it, but only until the street gets enough load

#

and this ISP has put people on 10Mbps down 1Mbps up just because it reached 100% in other places...

#

dynamically limiting people was too expensive so they didn't bother and only look at loads weekly xD

man the infrastructure must be ancient

if that makes sense for you to buy no clue

if you play valorant that cpu is the best choice, if you play other games it might be complete overkill

for the enduser its not going to make a difference literally just means use this thing on your phone, would bet you can even set it up with apple pay/gpay

fickle ore

ofc u can but its gonna suck

vapid ruin
#

It's becoming a reality

#

CP tried to warn us

fickle ore
#

higher velocity and trackability which are good for them

ashen spindle
#

if anything it would be less trackability

fickle ore
#

I dont want my wage to become expiring unless used for xy but not for z

ashen spindle
#

wtf are you on about, wage expiring?

fickle ore
ashen spindle
#

????

fickle ore
#

its literally 100% trackable

#

Look into digital euro

ashen spindle
#

oh so the places with more privacy laws would have less privacy, that sounds logical

crimson wigeon
#

It would just be EU PayPal, sure why not rather that than the US services I guess

fickle ore
ashen spindle
#

are you getting your wage onto your mastercard?

fickle ore
#

the reasoning is that social benefits would expire if not used after y time

ashen spindle
#

and not onto your bank account?

reef patrol
#

EU PayPal with fewer fees is the idea. And adding more competition to Visa and friends, forcing them to give better rates I guess.

Usable in stores like a card*

fickle ore
#

wut

ashen spindle
#

if your wage gets put into your bank then nothing is expiring there

crimson wigeon
#

I imagine most people would just have digital euro pull directly from their bank accounts instead of having much digital euro balance unless for a good reason

ashen spindle
#

it would be the same as when you use paypal with 0 balance and it just draws from your bank

fickle ore
#

Yeah but thats not digital euro thats just govt wallet or some shit

reef patrol
#

Yeah you can do either. A separate account like PayPal, or tie it directly to your account like a Visa.

#

I mean... If it saves me a euro or two a purchase on average and not having to pay a yearly fee for my MasterCard a piece that's some money.

ashen spindle
#

digital euro is not going to replace banks or anything..

fickle ore
#

.Remindme8years

reef patrol
#

No. Just a competitor to PayPal and credit cards within the Eurozone.

fickle ore
#

In the start maybe

#

Def would use the wallet part for saving 1-5% VISA/MC fees

reef patrol
#

I fully support disconnecting from the big, US based payment processors

Just look at the recent game censorship issue.

fickle ore
#

Yeah for sure

crimson wigeon
#

Weeeellll they would probably give in to the demands

fickle ore
#

They have too much power

#

Tho I'll miss my 2% cashback rewards, and watch sellers just keep the change for themselves lol. If it aint visible we won't get to save anything.

ashen spindle
#

who says they wont have any of the same benefits

#

also you cant say this thing sucks because the follow up they could do could be worse

reef patrol
#

As with everything else in life. Apply healthy skepticism but be interested in the potential and wait and see.

ashen spindle
#

like yes they COULD do xyz but its kinda pointless to say they shouldnt make a better version because they could end up becoming evil? then you would never make stuff better

fickle ore
#

idk if its better just more efficient and less wasteful

#

Getting rid of cash is massive bonus

ashen spindle
#

are those not words to describe something being better

#

more efficient = better?

fickle ore
#

Not necessarily because there are morality, ethics, privacy etc

#

but w/e

ashen spindle
#

and you think privacy of having the eu handle data is going to be worse than letting US companies handle it?

fickle ore
#

Suuure eu handling data is better in that regard. But I meant more as in privacy for tax avoidance in southern countries

#

But, overall EU ridding itself of US payment system reliance is a very good thing.

marsh glade
# ashen spindle wtf are you on about, wage expiring?

Actually this isn't that far fetched... The basic premise is that instead of using the concept of inflation to ensure the velocity of money by making stagnate funds less valuable over time, to instead have stagnate money expire

ashen spindle
#

yes but there is a difference of if that can be used in the future vs thats what would happen with this one thing

marsh glade
#

It's an interesting idea, one with substantial economic benefits - especially for anyone who isn't hording wealth

ashen spindle
#

which is why it wont ever happen dogekek

marsh glade
#

Perhaps

fickle ore
#

It's gonna happen with 90% certainty. It's easy low hanging fruit to fix some economies within EU with pressure from other states.

ashen spindle

yeah the people in charge, that all horde wealth, they will make a system where their hoarded wealth will expire havo

fickle ore
#

People receiving social benefits & future UBI will

#

Which will be set to expire

#

Only to be used on ACCEPTED goods

#

no more lotto for me 😭

Which is reasonable

fickle ore

The lotto part or the upper? lol

Both?

fair gull
marsh glade

Yes

fair gull
#

"only to be used on accepted goods" so like visa and mastercard are trying to enforce rn

fickle ore
#

Yea but combo it with EU big brother behaviour. No more alcohol except when they figure we needs kids too, no more tobacco, drugs, lotto and RNG box purchases in FFXIV

ashen spindle

so like visa and mastercard are trying to enforce rn

no?

the eu didnt ban the game

reef patrol
#

Pretty sure that's on the publishers in this case 😄

fair gull
#

the game didnt want to remove gambling

fickle ore
#

xD

fair gull
#

be that devs or publishers

#

also lotto is quite well within accepted goods in the EU

#

if you are over 18

#

the issue Belgium and NL have with lootboxes is underaged people gambling

nimble arch
reef patrol
#

Well...those are guidelines, not enforced.

fair gull
#

and even the alcohol worry is unfounded... if i recall right denmark is quite harsh on alcohol

#

they still sell it in stores though

reef patrol
#

We enforce age checking in all stores, if there's a shred of concern. But you can buy it anywhere, provided you have ID or look more than 16-18

nimble arch

PlayStation largely doesn't allow the sale of adult-only games. That's one major platform that you'd lose business from if your game was rated adult-only.

fair gull

ok but thats not even an EU thing

thats a platform thing

#

and as an adult i personally have 0 problems with trying to keep children out of gambling, adult video games and what not

#

id also have 0 problems with regulating adverts targeting children more heavily

As a Dane I miss the days when only our state controlled gambling gov were allowed to operate. Meaning it was essentially non-profit. But the EU wanted a free market, and now half of all ad breaks on YT seem to be online casinos operating from outside of the EU 😄

As a sports watcher, both football and Formula 1, there's a lot of gambling sponsors.

  • Were to fully embrace the digital euro:
    we could solve work related tax avoidance instantly. This would in turn make EU benefits more fairly shared between states, because taxation between countries would be more transparent than currently (Too different tax rules between states rn). This partly alleviates the monetary issue of failing demographics due to larger tax base. Expiring cash, like Mark said, boosts velocity of money and can alleviate the need for negative ECB rates due to failing demographics. Also getting rid of cash system would massively reduce costs for banks and retailers.

Idk, DE would fix big EU issues, which is why I'm thinking it'll happen sooner or later.

24” 1080p would be 92PPI
27” would be 82 PPI
27” 1440p is like 109
27” 4k is like 160
32” 1440p is back to 92
32” 4k is 130 area
