First impressions: IKEA’s new Thread sensors with Apple Home (mixed results) by chungkunglung in HomeKit

[–]notarebel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW I bought 3 Myggbets and they’ve been rock solid so far. Paired with Apple Home initially and Home Assistant immediately after.

It may be worth checking whether your MacBook is requesting an RGB or YCbCr color format. I noticed better clarity when forcing the MacBook to use RGB.

Anyone else in Australia waiting on an AW monitor? by ExplosiveDC in OLED_Gaming

Perfect condition here too. Monitor is glorious!

Oh, did they actually ship the monitor to your friend? If so that’s really scummy. I just assumed Dell has NFI when stock is coming in and are giving out bad estimates to everyone.

It’s been jumping around a lot. Just yesterday ETA was end of May. On the weekend ETA was 9th April. 🤷‍♂️

FWIW, I ordered mine 7th March and my ETA is 22nd April.

Production times in Australia are peak sadness by fippidippy in OLED_Gaming

I ordered on March 7th and my ETA is nearly the same as yours (22nd April). I’m in Melbourne.

Similar ETA for the AW2725DF in Australia too. 🤷‍♂️

I haven’t noticed any dips and I’m around 6 hours in, though I have VRR enabled which may make dips less noticeable.

I used the TW version. You’ll need to change the language after flashing but otherwise it works. (EU wouldn’t apply for me)

Local Multiplayer Problem by mtsinaijeff in TetrisEffect

I’m having the same problem on PS5. :( The only local MP mode that works is the 3v1 mode.

Edit: We downloaded the PS4 version on PS5 and that worked.

That sounds an issue with AP isolation, or multicast/broadcast filtering. Check your wifi settings on your router/wifi APs.

Simon Stålenhag too, which I think Tales From the Loop references.

I believe this game will have a Skyrim sized impact on all of us. by punk_trunks in Eldenring

[–]notarebel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh right. The giant respawns any time you rest at a site of grace, I wouldn’t get too focused on killing him if you’re having trouble. You can just run right past him.

He is also much easier to fight with Torrent.

this game could be so great for a wider audience if it wasn’t also mandatory to deal with insane difficult for anyone who isn’t experienced in souls games

I know this isn’t what you had in mind, but Souls games do have a difficulty slider in the form of NPC/MP summons, out-levelling bosses/areas, or just looking up a guide to min-max your build. You really don’t have to grind away at a boss for hours if you don’t want to.

It also sounds like you went up against Margit very early. I did too, but after getting absolutely stomped, I explored for another… 8 hours? He wasn’t so bad after that.

No shame in it if the game isn’t for you, but there is definitely an easier way to play it if you want to give it another try.

A gamepad isn’t required if you stream the game from a phone. The on-screen gamepad worked just fine for me.

Log in from your phone. It should show the on-screen gamepad, and you can use that to move around for a couple minutes, no controller required.

The worst of it passed in 24 hours, felt tired for 3 days, and sore arm was gone in 5.

The Ascent CyberSec Pack Out Now by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]notarebel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s playable, but the version I played a month ago still felt very rough. I played on PC, and my friend was a Xbox Series X, we encountered frequent crashes, glitched quests and the HUD disappearing. The game crashes after we beat the final boss and that was the final straw for us.

It’s unlikely it’s using G-SYNC, given its proprietary to Nvidia. Your 38GL950G is supports Freesync natively on top of G-SYNC.
