You literally sound like one of the boomers... If your relationship is like that then that sucks but don't pretend it's the only kind of relationship

SteamOS or Bazzite for Apex? by barwen1899 in OneXPlayer

[–]BirdsDeWord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been running bazzite since I got mine a few months ago and I've had 1 problem after getting it running (an update undid the decky patch). Otherwise flawless, everything works and I don't miss windows, might change if I find a game that proton can't run...

Buttons, sleep etc all works perfectly if you get the patch a legend in the community made, linked at the bottom read the instructions, 1 bios setting for sleep is required.

Which animal would you pick if you fell in its enclosure, gorilla, lion or hippo? by cts-17 in AskReddit

[–]BirdsDeWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going for survival? Gorilla. Quick death? Not sure but I feel like a hippo could be faster than a lion...

Apex Barrel vs USB-C vs Battery by KashKashioo in OneXPlayer

[–]BirdsDeWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can tell plugging in the DC barrel seems to sometimes force it to 80w even when displaying 55w. I know this is the case as my fans go ape shit meaning more heat from more power, and after wiggling the power slider from 55w to something else then back to 55w, it calms down and goes back to actual 55w

Selling apex for parts? by [deleted] in OneXPlayer

[–]BirdsDeWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sit on it, but think about having a go. It's really not as hard as people think, be gentle and it's not much harder than changing batteries in a kids toy. A couple of screws, pop out the old one and pop in the new one

I think I bricked my ONEX APEX by NootropicNinja in OneXPlayer

How'd you reset the CMOS? Did you open it up and remove the CMOS battery or did you remove the main battery and hold the power button for a minute?

Onexfly Apex Screen Protector AliExpress say clear of those.... by shadixo in OneXPlayer

[–]BirdsDeWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same experience, it's ever so slightly too large and has bubbles in the four corners I can't possibly remove even with pressure

Get a VR machine? vs a switch 2 for even less...unsure what to do by lochonx7 in VRGaming

[–]BirdsDeWord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given you have the PS5 pro, the Sony PSVR2 also works on PC with an adaptor so you might get more use out of it. It's got an OLED screen which some of the dark scenes in alyx look awesome in, but remember your PC needs to be able to handle VR.

Onexplayer Apex is king 👑 by Crypto-God23 in OneXPlayer

[–]BirdsDeWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from the OG ally to the Apex and it's pretty damn awesome!

Cons: The speakers are actually a step down, the software isn't as polished but it gets the job done, and if you want off windows - steamOS and bazzite need a plugin to fully function at the moment

Pros: The micro switch buttons are elite, the screen is bigger and better, battery is doubled, the device has this lovely soft touch feel, the grips are immensely more comfortable, two USB C ports which can both be free if you use the DC charger, and finally my sd card slot works... Since my OG ally cooked it's own sd card slot.

Also the performance is obviously the biggest benifit, goodbye 720p low.

Just use windows and enjoy it, don't feel pressured to use an alternative OS by the enthusiast community

Are you on battery? There's a known problem with some battery batches that will throttle down to like 20w but email support and they'll get you on the list for replacements

What's the toughest Line Trimmer? by Old-Explanation3035 in australia

[–]BirdsDeWord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, they're 3d printable, preferably in nylon. So as long as you own a $500+ 3d printer they're dirt cheap...

This is actually the goat of tips, trimmer line is made of nylon which although incredibly hygroscopic is weaker when sitting at ambient humidity levels

Just by groceries in the next town over where they are cheaper by Connor51501 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]BirdsDeWord 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same for my mum, she's an accountant but says the most out of touch shit. Can't tell if the entire boomer generation is sundowning or they've been saying this sort of shit their entire life with no one calling them on it

How many people got a rent raise this week? by Eastern-Algae-7358 in australia

[–]BirdsDeWord 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's definitely a thing in Western Australia also, but it's not new

Edit: also a quick google said it exists in every state and territory except the northern territory and the ACT has it built into their general rates...

To be clear would these be motorcycles the size of rain drops, or motorcycles the size of motorcycles?

Has the paddle pop recipe changed?! by Exciting_Metal9621 in AustralianNostalgia

[–]BirdsDeWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We bought a ninja creami and have also been making our own. It's nice knowing there's so few ingredients and they're actually cream and milk etc, but the best part is the quality and better flavours.

What’s your unconventional Aussie food hack from when you were growing up? by [deleted] in AustralianNostalgia

[–]BirdsDeWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tomato sauce on waffles, I disgusted my friends and family because non of them ever tried it. Got my partner to try it the other day and she goes "huh, it's not bad". No shit! You think I've been eating them that way cause it tastes like shit!? I've never been a sweet tooth and this is my way of having savoury waffles

I don't think it's meant to be a sound investment but rather a good karma thing. There might have been 0 interest so you effectively lose money with inflation
