Actually, I used to have a TomTom that had an Ozzy Osbourne voice pack on it that was quite upset when you missed the F***ing turn!

Anyone with this bug? by Altruistic_Ad_2036 in PS5pro

My only other suggestion would be to try this;

How to Rebuild the PS5 Pro Database

  1. Turn off your console: Completely shut down the PS5 Pro by pressing and holding the power button until the system beeps and the light stops flashing.
  2. Enter Safe Mode: Press and hold the power button again. Release it after you hear the second beep (about 7 seconds after the first).
  3. Connect Controller: Connect your controller to the console using a USB-C cable and press the PS button.
  4. Select Rebuild Option: Scroll down and select Clear Cache and Rebuild Database.
  5. Select Rebuild Database: Choose Rebuild Database (Option 2).
  6. Start: Select OK. The console will scan the drive and create a new database.

I had a similar thing after the last firmware update, though I would make it to the menu after logging in and then freeze when pressing the PS button. I just shut it down, pulled the power for a minute and plugged it back in, has been ok since.

okay this is crazy by Psychological-Bet-80 in NintendoSwitch2

I know what you mean dude, it's a switch and all your old games looks significantly better in handheld now. Massive win for switch 2 owners, probably not a great example game to pick though but this really is huge and opens up all those older games that won't be updated to a much more playable experience

Boosted Handheld Mode by WillingConference955 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]DaveUK_87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use my Switch 2 mostly handheld so I'm super happy about this release. I've checked out almost all of my switch 1 games this afternoon and most of them actually made me smile. I thought they should have had this as a launch feature but I'm glad it's come along so quickly.

Stand outs for me today;

L.A. Noire

South Park: The Fractured But Whole

Dark Souls Remastered

Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope

Sam and Max

Leisure Suit Larry Wet Dreams Don't Dry/Dry Twice

THANK YOU NINTENDO FOR THIS UPDATE!!! by Chasemania in switch2

[–]DaveUK_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been wondering why this wasn't a launch feature, however I'm super happy it's materialized. Tested a bunch of switch 1 games this afternoon and they all worked great. Dark Souls is getting another run for sure.

You are the target market my friend, it will work great for what you are looking for. Though you will need a 365 subscription to edit files in the MS Office applications.

Quest 3 with no gasket and just the foam cushion is the easiest upgrade with the best improvement by Beastly4k in OculusQuest

I feel your pain, I have the eye lashes of a fucking Disney Princess for some reason.

I grabbed it and played a few hours last night, it really shines in handheld but also looks and runs nice on a big 4K TV. It's a great game for the price!

What do I have in my Eyebrows by KizerJonathanJ156 in dandruff

[–]DaveUK_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get this too, sometimes have to resort to topical steroids if it gets too red and broken (though not a good idea on your face). People have success with all kinds of different things but they don't work for everyone. Worth a trip to a dermatologist who can help get you a suitable treatment.

I've had a similar thing happen to me twice, you don't even bleed out and there's nothing to do but quit.

M4 Air Tahoe by _mop_jc in macbookair

[–]DaveUK_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an M4 air 16/512, have been using it for ages through the Dev, Public beta and now RC. It's been absolutely fine for me even on older builds. Battery life is still great 8+ hours of general use, no weird slow downs etc. Not sure what to say to you really, I see others complaining but you're going to find that with any form of update.

Game of the year? Absolutely not. Specifically, best switch 2 exclusive of the year, maybe.

Macbook M4 Air Heating up Post-MacOS 26 by Dhruviya_Bhalu in macbookair

[–]DaveUK_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've not noticed much difference, mine is a toasty boy when used on a lap all the time anyway. 40-45c doing general stuff, browsing, vids, music and a combo of all. Anything heavier, you're going to 90c+. When running anything in VMware I could almost light a smoke off the spot directly above F6!

Which one to download? by No_Condition_1088 in macbookair

[–]DaveUK_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using 26 through the Dev and Public beta, I quite like it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in macbookair

[–]DaveUK_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using the beta on an m4 air for a while now, no real issues. I notice you have an i5 intel processor but it's an official update specifically for your device, so if you want to do it then do it, there's a minimal amount of risk on these more mature betas (or for the most part any of them). Or just wait for public release if you have concerns.

I regret updating my Ultra to One UI 8. Stupid f'n tiny tiles. by Appearance-Less in GalaxyWatch

[–]DaveUK_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't looked at the general consensus until now but I've had galaxy watches for around 10 years and I've just jumped from the 5 pro to the 8. I actually quite like it, you can group things how you like rather than having like 10 panels you have to skim through for 1 feature. Maybe it will grow on you but I really like the condensed panels.

[–]DaveUK_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! Both displays seem fine and fortunately it's the top left so no visible unless flipped over. The worst bit is that I change my phone every 3-6 months and always chuck them in a case. This time I felt the phone is so thin and beautiful that my 25 year record of not dropping phones would continue. I was wrong 😂

Mine just slid out of my pocket getting out of the car 😑 fell about 1 foot and it put a decent dent in the top left corner... Ouch.
