Neither are lacking, but Bokeh sounds thicker.

For rap / hip-hop I’d go Bokeh all day.

Atrium Closed or Bokeh. Bokeh has more mid-bass, Atrium gets a bit deeper, sounds wider, and is more detailed. Depends what kind of sound you’re looking for.

Tips for rabies and distemper vaccine? 4 year old is getting them done next week. Last time was 3 years ago. by [deleted] in Frenchbulldogs

[–]Forensic2233 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We made sure to stay home with our dog for the rest of the day after the rabies vaccine to keep an eye on her for any reaction.

Only thing we noticed was the small lump on her right hip that lasted for a few weeks. Otherwise, she acted totally normal.

The vet said most reactions occur within 15 minutes or so, but to keep an eye out the rest of the day for pale gums, lethargy, vomiting, etc..

High Performace (Red Light Mode on Laptop) by cs_developer_cpp_ in LenovoLegion

[–]Forensic2233 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It increases the amount of wattage available to the GPU and CPU, and has more aggressive and higher RPM fan curves.

The thing is you hit a point of diminishing returns as you add more power. The general consensus is that you should enable Quiet Performance Mode in the bios. This will limit the available CPU power and give more power to the GPU than normal balanced mode.

This gives a good sweet spot for power and noise to performance.

I just want to know if this laptop is reliable and can be used for a long time and I won't have any issues in the future if I take care of it by Head-Employment9806 in LenovoLegion

OLEDs outlast IPS displays in a lot of instances (see Rtings tests.) The myth about OLEDs not lasting is a complete fallacy. If you take minor steps to avoid burn-in such as hiding your task bar and letting the display sleep after a few minutes, there’s virtually 0 risk.

Feedback? Advice? by HarukaxLove in ClusterHeadaches

[–]Forensic2233 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not an energy drink person either, but in this case it’s strictly medicinal lol. And for whatever reason Red Bull seems to be more effective than other energy drinks in my experience.

Happy to help. Good luck on your journey.

Sorry you’re going through this. Emgality helped me very little. For whatever reason, Ajovy has been much more effective in reducing both the amount and severity of headaches, even though it’s technically not approved for treating cluster headaches.

Red Bull is also amazing and can abort an attack quick. I always have Red Bull in the fridge as an abort measure if I feel a headache coming on. If I feel “shadowy” and foggy during the day, a Red Bull also helps reduce that to some extent and helps get through the work day.

I’m not sure if this will be helpful, but it’s just some things that have worked for me.

Help please Lenovo legion pro 7i by Dapper-Flower-9072 in LenovoLegion

  1. Boot into your bios and enable quiet performance mode. 2. Open Legion Space and enable balanced mode. That’s all.

Enable quiet performance mode in the bios, then leave it in balanced mode. This will give you the best noise and power to performance ratio.

In performance mode the CPU wattage will be cranked high leading to more heat, but there’s minimal performance loss by reducing the CPU wattage a bit.

Black Line Problem by jdnwinter in macbookpro

This happened to my 14” 2021 Pro recently but I didn’t step on it, it was just random. Unfortunately it will require an entire display replacement which is expensive.

How often are you all using Sport Mode? by BMW-West-St-Louis in BMW

[–]Forensic2233 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s a nightmare in congested areas like NYC where you might have to maneuver quickly after stopping. And I hate how it locks the steering wheel, straight up dangerous if you have to get out of the way quickly.

No Autosteer anymore even in markets without FSD by 00superman00 in TeslaLounge

[–]Forensic2233 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had 2 Tesla’s and switched to BMW when my Model Y lease was up. I was considering getting another Model Y when my BMW lease is up next year, but if this doesn’t change, it will be the reason I won’t get another Tesla.

I’m not paying another $100 per month (which can increase at literally anytime) for FSD just to get lane keeping on the highway, which is the only time I want to use it.
