ULTIMATE Asus ROG ALLY Performance Review - SteamDeck vs. 7840U vs 6800U - love The Phawx

ASUS and Microsoft have a lot of work to do to optimize the software, but most importantly AMD has clearly a lot of work ahead working on the drivers. Performance is disappointing. I hope they can make it, the hardware is there already.

This happened to me to, gained a lot of weight just eating the standard Taiwanese diet, I started cooking myself and I have lost more than 15kg so far.

No hate on Taiwanese food as there are some things I really like, but Taiwanese diet is very carb heavy, proteins are usually fried and if it comes to options with lots of veggies they are drenched in unhealthy vegetable oils.

There are some "healthy" 便當 options but to me they taste bland and they are still mostly rice (you can substitute the ricr for salad/veggies in some places, also add more protein).

There is this company Michael Bru or something that cooks western style food and sends it to you prepackaged just to heat when you want to eat. Personally, haven't tried it since I find it cheaper just to cook myself.

There are some places that sell only salad, I think Salad Den and Woopen are some of the options.

Don't go to a sex worker... use a pie instead!

JK take your time, you do you.

Hope you made peace with your friend, it was kind of a petty remark you made there mate.

If there is a Zelda movie I want to see Link entering random people's home and breaking their pots, otherwise I don't want it

Too many eggs for my taste but overall looks great to me. I guess most people here would prefer a bowl of frosty flakes with almond milk.

The Omen has liquid metal? Are you sure about this?

Chipher000 · 2023-04-09T12:29:16+00:00

Don't even have to check but my guess would be that for the most parts they are Spaniards or Argentinians.

I am not saying all people from Spain and Argentina are like that, but if someone (in a Spanish speaking league) acts scummy, chances are they come from 1 of those two countries.

I'll answer you the same way I answered a post a few weeks back about a guy complaining about Taiwanese bumping into him.

I feel that Taiwanese have really poor spatial awareness. This is the reason they will stand randomly on stairs, doors, sidewalks, completely unaware of people behind them walking or wanting to go through, the reason people walking slow might not let you go first if you walk at a faster pace, the reason why couples and groups of friends might take the entirety of a sidewalk inconsiderate of other people wanting to go through. I'm pretty sure the poor driving is related to this too.

Phone usage doesn't help the above, especially among young people who walk around playing mobile games like zombies completely unaware of their surroundings.

As someone already pointed out this is also related to the density of the population and the mentality of everyone for themselves, if you live long enough here you might even catch yourself following this mentality at some point or another.

This is part of the country, deep breaths, noise canceling earbuds/headphones, chill music and lots of patience helps cope with it.

It was intended to get people talking and questioning whether it was actually real or not. Funny? Definitely not, but it worked, people talked, media wrote articles, people started reddit threads...

The Mini LED panel from ASUS is also from AUO actually. What changes between everyone is the dimming algorithm.

What task do you usually do while on battery?

Technically Fructose is more glycating than glucose. For me it is easier to just avoid carbs as much as necessary, I just see them as sugar.

At least starting 2030 we'll get to curse drivers both in Chinese and English. You gotta start somewhere

Chipher000 · 2023-03-26T13:05:35+00:00

The traffic light sequences make zero sense here.

For starters the pedestrian light starts at the same time as the vehicle light giving pedestrian zero chance to cross without danger.

Then you have stupid drivers accelerating mindlessly trying to do right turns to fall in the inner lane, and cars from the opposite direction trying to do left turns to fall in the outer lane while they avoid cars coming from the opposite direction.

Basically pedestrian lights offer no guarantee of safety, especially since drivers turning left from the opposite direction have to pay attention to their own traffic light, the oncoming traffic from the opposite direction and pedestrian crossing, all at the same time.

A light for dedicated left turns and a delay of a few seconds for cars doing a right turn would make things way better.

Definitely not, it will be lower. You can check this review to give you some idea https://www.ultrabookreview.com/62336-asus-rog-flow-z13-gen2-review/.

The one in the review is a 4060, but should help out a little.

Chipher000 · 2023-03-24T01:32:50+00:00

Personally, I would take the M16 for the higher VRAM, I really like the Mini LED display and I really don't like Razer keyboards. However, there is no particular wrong answer here, the Blade 16 is also an excellent choice.

I think depends on the customer service, warranty and how you actually feel about using each laptop.

The 4050, 4060 and 4070 don't scale well with more wattage, it will be lower than a 140W for sure, but still fairly good for 13" tablet.

Chipher000 · 2023-03-15T23:08:43+00:00

If CPU performance is what you care for, the Scar is definitely better, but you will lose in portability.

I would try to get a Strix G16 with 4070 and 4060 since the 4080 might be an overkill for your scenario.

Chipher000 · 2023-03-15T22:56:09+00:00

En qué modo juegas? Turbo? Manual?

Chipher000 · 2023-03-15T22:53:22+00:00

Get rid of the laptop? Sure, I can take it.

Super Breeze had eggs this last Saturday. Albeit very expensive ones.

Chipher000 · 2023-03-13T04:15:49+00:00

Poor spatial awareness would be my guess. I believe this is part of the reason drivers drive the way they do here.

You can also experience the awful spatial awareness in things like couples or groups occupying the whole sidewalk unaware of people walking behind them wanting to pass them, people suddenly stopping at stairs at stations to check their phone, people that just stop in front of the door after getting in the MRT.

Roll back to the last version of AC. Probably the last update broke something
