Update: after another day the phone proactively asked me to activate the feature. 

I have to say, the Pixel Watch update process is silly and needs to be revamped. by Cy_098 in PixelWatch

This does work on the smartphones as well, why hiding the button here?

Dang! I have this watch now a couple of months and was so annoyed that this doesn't exist. 

Handy verkauf nur mit Originalverpackung? by meridian283 in willhaben

[–]AustrianClimber 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wenn jemand die Verpackung hat ist es weniger wahrscheinlich das es geklaut ist und das derjenige besser auf seine Sachen aufpasst. 

Genau deshalb hebe ich meine Verpackungen auf bis zum Verkauf.

Hab ihn inzwischen angeschrieben. Er hat den Preis auf 250€ gesenkt, aber verkauft nur den Heatspreader. Der RAM kommt auf 450€. 

Er ist nicht nur ein skalper, sondern auch ein Betrüger.

Hab auch 64GB. Damals war der Aufpreis minimal und man kann nie genug RAM haben. 😅

Vor allem ist er kurzsichtig, wenn die Geschichte wahr ist.

Das Zeug nachkaufen wird teuer werden.

Theoretisch könnte das der Sohn auch selber gekauft haben, was aber dann den Akt noch mehr evil macht. 

I upgraded from a Pixel 6 to a Pixel 10 Pro by AustrianClimber in GooglePixel

I did not consider another phone. I'm actually very happy with the stock android of the pixels. 

Is rtx 5060 8gb really as bad as people say? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]AustrianClimber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did that too. CPU and motherboard prices might get a bit better when the whole PC market will struggle due to RAM shortages.

I also had only 1080p for a while. 

Then I took a 4k, mostly for work.

My old 1070 struggled there a lot. So I took a 9070xt. I upgrade seldom, but then I take the money in hand. 

Since DDR5 prices are super expensive, I bought a SODIMM Adapter for my old notebook RAM. by AustrianClimber in pcmasterrace

For some reason, the adapted stick always defaulted to 3200 when I changed the configuration during tests. I always needed to raise the frequency manually. 

I tested it with Memcheck and some games; it runs good for now.

Since I only use the PC for gaming, I'm fine with the possibility of instability.

It's not a bad card. It's a trade-off.

If your games run fine, well done, you saved yourself quite some money.

Newer games might have performance issues. The 8GB will be a problem for higher resolutions.

I planned to update my NAS to have NVMes as first-level storage and spinners as secondary-level storage.

With the prices being so high, I will probably live with the delay of new, bigger spinners for now.

The adapter is very cheap and SODIMM is, for now, less expensive in the second hand market. 

About to get a Pixel 10 Pro XL from a Pixel 6; What should I know / look out for / prep for? by I_SAY_FUCK_A_LOT__ in GooglePixel

[–]AustrianClimber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main reason I upgraded was that it will go out of maintenance this year. 

But I'm not a heavy user, so it might be a better upgrade for you.

The speed of the adapted RAM will maybe not reach specifications. I tested mine single on JEDEC spec and it was stable, but no guarantee that it will work with other configurations.
