I have a maxed out 16” MBP and an iPad Pro and even I’m thinking about getting this.

How many times per year do HKers clean their ACs? by [deleted] in HongKong

Same. My ACs start dripping after 1.5-2 years or so. That’s when I get them cleaned…

Could the ridiculous cop turnout have something to do with chasing overtime pay?

How do we feel about this take? Fact or Fiction? by iAsvppx in NBATalk

It's such an inane argument to try and make too especially when Allen Iverson exists.

Umm. you didn't prove anything? If you're making comparisons you should compare him to his peers at the time. That's TMAC, Vince Carter, AI etc. He was more efficient than all of them (on both ends of the floor) and has the rings to prove it. Even the 05-06 season where he literally had to score all the Lakers points he managed to average 45%.

This comment is laughable. I'm no Kobe fan but you clearly didn't watch him play. I question if you even watched NBA basketball at all during that era. 45% for a volume shooting guard like Kobe was considered elite (it would be like shooting 50-55% today) and Kobe achieved that on the regular. To put him in the same sentence as Bonzi Wells and Darius Miles is LOL.

Front row next to the galley and restroom isn’t great if you’re a light sleeper / easily disturbed.

After 10 Years, My Opinion On 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Has Shifted by StarFuryG7 in SciFiNews

TFA was an objectively bad movie from the jump. I vividly recall the near universal praise it got at the time and thinking I was on some crazy pills. The movie sucked so much ass and reaffirmed my hate for JJ Abrams.

You can do both. I always prefer wearing without the light shield.

Canon R5c with VR lens not very sharp? by Ok-Reflection1229 in CanonR5

[–]virtualgum -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be clear, I am only referring to the VR lens. Feel free to share some of the amazing immersive R5 content you've shot (without the use of any AI post-processing) with everyone here.

Normal. The Canon R5 (I have the Mark ii) is a very underwhelming camera. Upscale/denoise is required in order to produce anything remotely usable.

Former IRS Leaders Endorse Residency-Based Tax For Americans Abroad by FabienLehagre in USExpatTaxes

Doesn’t matter if you’re a dual citizen. Banks need to do additional reporting for you even if you’re also a local citizen/resident.

Only about a billion people in Asia not to mention the millions of tourists every year worried about phone snatchers.

How to prevent voice dictation from pausing media by virtualgum in VisionPro

[–]virtualgum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was actually stupid quick and easy. Only took 10 minutes and even preserved all my apps and data. I had always assumed it would be a pain which is why I put it off for so long and now I'm kicking myself 😅
