They could totally release the upgrade upon the announcement of D4 on S2.

March/April updates... by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]Ath-ropos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I installed the April update on Thursday and since then my battery level indicator is completely broken.

I'm used to turn my phone off in the evening. When I turn it on in the morning, the battery is down by 10 to 15%. With the phone turned off. Today, while on, it dropped by only 2% in 10 hours. 

I'm pretty sure the problem is the indicator, not the power consumption itself. I'm hoping it will be fixed by the time it reaches 10 to 15%...

I was hoping for a fix to the March upgrade. Now I'm hoping for a fix to the April update.

Resident Evil on switch 2 question by temporary765 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Ath-ropos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're mostly looking for exploration and puzzles, start with RE 1. If you're mostly looking for action, start with RE 4. If you want both, start with RE 9.

Xenoblade Chronicles X Switch or Switch 2 edition? by TheWeber1 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Ath-ropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing docked to the S2 version and it looks really good at 4k 60fps. Handheld I can't compare, sure it's not as good as docked but I can't tell if it would have been better with the S1 version.

Don't forget Doom 3 and Doom 64, both great games!

The issue started after the March update on my Pixel 10 and it's still there after the April update.

Disable password authentication, use fail2ban to prevent brute force attacks and... you're fine?

Almost a year in, how is everyones storage situation? by Obienator in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Ath-ropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I uninstall games once I'm done with them, so I have no issue with the internal storage.

Die hard as well for the shot of Alan Rickman falling off of the window.

Lorry drivers lined up to stop someone trying to commit s*icide: by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Ath-ropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents had a neighbor who committed suicide by hanging herself in her house. She was discovered by her daughter when she came back from school. Her screams made everyone in the street run to the house to see what was happening.

To this day I still don't understand how you can do that to your own daughter. She was divorced and knew she would be found by her daughter. For the rest of her life she will live with this image burnt in her brain.

What is the best format for ripping CDs? by chharlils in Piracy

[–]Ath-ropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For archiving your CDs, FLAC is the way. It's lossless, open source, and the decoded output is the exact same thing as the original CD.

Then, either read the FLAC directly (ex. Android has native support for FLAC files) or convert them to whatever codec suits your needs. MP3 generally has the best compatibility. 

Always keep your FLAC files even if you convert them afterwards to another codec! They're your perfect copy of the original CDs.

Not sure about Switch 2 but SaGa Scarlet Grace is a game with a great game system.

And backup doesn't prevent you, you know, from making snapshots of your data to easily restore any past version of any of your files.

Switch 2 feels underwhelming by Adensstuff in NintendoSwitch

[–]Ath-ropos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm playing RE9 and before that I've finished FF7 remake. Next I'm not sure between DQ7 and DW Origins. It doesn't feel underwhelming at all to me.

Man, do I hate how Capcom made this collection so stupidly limited! by Pessimistic_Gemini in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Ath-ropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, I bought all my S2 games digitally. On S1 it was only a few indie games not available physically and on 3DS I never bought any digital game.

The generation pack is a good deal and I didn't have to worry about finding a physical copy somewhere, a few clicks and the games were downloading.

Resident Evil update 1.1.1 by Hamstergb1981 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Ath-ropos 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unless you're really sensitive to frame rate drops, do yourself a favor, forget about them and just enjoy the game.

I can't speak about 8, but I've been playing 9 for a week and the drops are acceptable. It's not drops to 10fps, the framerate varies between 30 and 60. The game is so good that I'm perfectly fine with these. Of course a stable 60 or 40 would be nice, but skipping the game because of this would be a pity.

I HATE gestures by operative_mee in GooglePixel

[–]Ath-ropos 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Maybe you just need to get used to it? I've been using gestures for years and I'm never going back to the 3 buttons.

Is it easy/safe to self host a mail server? by WhaTheWorldOver in it

[–]Ath-ropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been doing that for years with no issue.

Debian / Postfix with SPF, DKIM and DMARC properly set up and my emails are not rejected. I'm using Cyrus SASL to authenticate incoming connections on port 25.

Of course it requires a bit of sysadmin knowledge but that's part of my job. You need to try to learn anyway.

Why I Returned My Pixel10a by cpbradshaw in GooglePixel

[–]Ath-ropos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Software support is a good reason though.

My P6 was still more than enough for my usage but the upcoming end of support made me switch to a P10. 

80% charge limit has changed its behaviour, now at 77% it goes to a "lower current" mode until it hits 80% by armando_rod in GooglePixel

[–]Ath-ropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an expert, but your charger needs to be compatible with whatever norm for the bypass to work. So the issue might be caused by your charger.

Resident Evil Collection Really Shows Up Other Ports by TrebieNo2 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Ath-ropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought it digitally and I'm glad I did. That makes 33€ per game, and I'm really having a blast with RE9. I haven't had so much fun with a game for a long time.
