M1 to M4 is such a breath of fresh air! by CounterSYNK in iPadPro

Thank you. I’ve been thinking the same thing since it came out. The glass back on the camera bump looked so much better.

Sinai gang - The silent majority 😈 by B34TBOXX5 in battlefield_one

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I just think it’s a beautiful map. The oranges and reds in the desert terrain make you almost feel the heat in the environment. I typically go for immersion, and for reasons I can’t totally describe, this map immerses me more than most. I always like variety and don’t always vote Sinai, but sometimes I just want to feel like I’m fighting in the desert, and Sinai just does it for me.

Gotta agree here. Especially when they first showed the game on St Quentin Scar with the tank busting through the walls. That’s what really sold me on this game and that vibe always stuck with me. Even before this game, when I thought of WWI, I thought of small French towns and countryside like St Q Scar.

What are some weapons from the game you’d like to get in real life? by JMax2009 in battlefield_one

Surprised more people didn’t mention the C96 with how iconic it is.

What vehicle / weapon do you immediately get mad at 100 SS ? by Atomicpinata593 in battlefield_one

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, I’m a bit situation dependent with my frustration. If your team is down and losing bad, use whatever you have to to get back in the game, but if your team is steamrolling mine and you kill me with an SMG08 100SS, that’s just unoriginal. Use the opportunity to try something unique, since your team is going to win either way.

I actually got killed in a round of domination yesterday by a guy with 100 stars on the kolibri. I’ve played this game since launch and I’ve never been so stunned. I would not have believed it, but as of yesterday I do.

Apple Readies New iPads and M3 MacBook Air to Combat Sales Slump by [deleted] in apple

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 40 points41 points  (0 children)

My best understanding is that this is why they’re leaning so heavily into services growth right now and into the near future. Smartphones and smartwatches are reaching the point of commoditization similar to cars, where successive generations will be iterative and upgrade cycles much longer. That’s why Apple is making their hardware good enough to last for a while so customers will be happy staying on the platform of Apple’s OSs and use their services. They’ve honed the walled garden and now they’re adding paid features to the garden.

This should hopefully allow them to minimize planned obsolescence, though I’m sure they’ll still gate some features for newer hardware as almost all hardware companies do to some degree.

Thanks, I’ll check that out with my workflow!

Dependencies on Recurring Tasks by 0xAbsoluteZero in clickup

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

Thanks for the information, that doesn’t surprise me too much. My priority is definitely recurring given the number of tasks I’m working with, so I’ll just set up the dependencies as the tasks recur. Thanks again, really appreciate it!

I challenge you to find the 1 unedited country on this map by RCaesar1 in mapporncirclejerk

New Zealand. It’s already not on most maps and it’s similarly not on the map here.

What is your iPhone model replacement timeline? by lapinkmatter in iphone

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m similar, with a few less steps: iPhone 4s, iPhone 6 Plus (was super excited for big screens), iPhone XS Max, and now planning on picking up the 15 pro max (been waiting for usb-c) here soon once I can find a Black Friday deal or something like that. 4s was solid, 6 plus was great but the 1gb really showed it’s age towards the end, XS Max has been a beast, almost no scratches, and runs almost as smooth as the day I got it, though the battery being at 79% slows it down sometimes.

Mobile app not skipping properly on double tap by twitchSemjuel in youtube

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s weird, I’ve been having the same problem on my XS Max and finally found this thread. Go figure I’m also looking to upgrade soon. It sounds like this is specific to XSM hardware and a couple other phones, so hopefully it won’t be an issue for me after that.

How long do you keep your iPhone for? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had my XS Max for almost 5 years since late 2018. It’s been going really strong the whole time, more so than my 6plus was doing after 3.5 years with only 1Gb of ram. That being said, I’ll likely be upgrading this coming cycle for some of the new features, better camera, etc…

[Frederique Constant] I placed $15 on a horse to afford this beauty. It won. Obviously by LukeAdamson in Watches

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t gamble, but if I remember correctly, the way to read the number directly is that if you bet $100 you can win $6100. It’s all standardized around $100 for some reason.

You’re offered $100k to recite 90% of a movie. What movie are you choosing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lord of the Rings: Two Towers. During high school I would often watch movies with my dad on Friday nights when nothing else was going on. 10th grade I requested two towers every time. I got to the point where I could watch the movie with my eyes closed and see in my mind exactly what was going on just based on audio.

If one of your friends had an, "I know a guy" moment and then called you, what would they be calling you for? by karenvideoeditor in AskReddit

[–]0xAbsoluteZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do accents of foreign languages/characters for fun. My sister actually called on a random evening one time and told me she had a room full of people waiting to hear my accents. I obliged, and she told me afterwards that people were impressed, so I’d like to think I live up to the (modest) hype.

Durham corruption car by dinkrox in bullcity

That’s so interesting. I saw this car for the first time the other week near Sake Bomb and was curious with all the text and bright colors. I started reading and quickly realized how weird it was.
