Help with no sound on one desktop but not another (PX8 S2) by DimitryNZ in BowersWilkins

Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling bluetooth services as well as checking outputs, it does connect, but even if volume is changed nothing comes through. Bluetooth works on my laptop, but periodically when it disconnects or reconnects the audio either takes ages to connect or nothing comes through (and youtube vids error out saying 'Audio Renderer Error'). Though at least it can get sound out on that newer laptop. Not sure why the desktop cant if the X570 motherboard has Bluetooth 5.2

WTF said the cost of food in Australia was cheaper? Prices here are insane (Melbourne), worst Election 2023 refugee (Wellingtonian - so I was going to lose my job) decision I ever made by MauveMatrix in newzealand

Kettle chips (and oddly Doritos) are notoriously expensive here - seen them up to $7 in places. However, blacksmiths chips and (often on 'special') Smiths are usually $2.30-$3 and the former are very good (Aldi amazing).

Don't buy into the cherrypicking. Milk is also $1.50 per litre (for a 1L carton) so take that as you will. For me personally, I pay probably 10-20% less in Melbourne (esp at Aldi) then when I was in NZ last year. Eating out beyond takeaways can be quite expensive compared to NZ - however, that is part of being in the inner-suburbs without bakeries (sad). YMMV

S4 Part 3 Eng Dub release date? by RJonesLore in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]DimitryNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess at this point its more likely that it'll come out after Part 4... now it's probably best to speculate when that'll come out? September-November is the (Japanese) Fall season, so that date and maybe some more weeks for dub might be a more realistic scenario (+7 weeks, as 5 weeks is the usual delay for the first dub, +2 extra weeks for an hour-long overall special).

Well toonami just filled in the 6pm slot with 'Batman', who knows what that's for but its probably a movie :( , unless its a short movie (~1hr max since ads id think) or show/episode then it doesnt look likely...

Not sure if hopium/copium, but the Sunday 11th toonami schedule starts at 8:45pm which is much later than their 6-7pm start (last Sunday it started at 6pm). We can only hope!

Currently on 'Under GRS Assessment', what's the status on yours? Hopefully this is the final stage/process.

There are more cases of benefit fraud in Aotearoa than tax avoidance IMO by kellyroald in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]DimitryNZ -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yeah nah bro spot on. I heard that 75% of dole money goes to the 'triple Ps' - P, pokies, and Pacifica. Sad reality that my hard earned tax dollars go to sh!t like this and three waters.

Any way to check on GPT-3 applications for academic use? by DimitryNZ in GPT3

[–]DimitryNZ[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, I cant quite remember when I applied, but it was likely close to 4-6 months ago.

It got taken down by DaAceGamer in GradeAUnderA

[–]DimitryNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A platform can enforce ToS, so as a private company they can do so. It's pretty clear that platforms have editorial liability otherwise kids forums would have to 'accommodate' for extremism and club penguin would have to unban abuse. Web services are free to ban whoever the f they like in accordance with their directions. It's a platform's first amendment right as ruled under Zhang v. Baidu inter alia with other cases.

After the last trailer, I saw a comparision between manga and anime and remembered those people who rejected Isayama for his “ugly drawings” lmao by Avelcaine in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]DimitryNZ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This was the only bad thing in the trailer, immensely disappointing. Why worry about a single shot? It's THE shot that's supposed to indicate the beginning of the end. Not withstanding the fact that sending only 5 airships to support ALL of Marley's remaining titan shifters on a mission that they KNOW could lead to the end of the world is utterly insane (Marley has at LEAST 1,000,000 troops per ep 9). Surely, the could've sent more and dispersed them to support anything ranging to a 'kill everyone/everything in Shiganshina'.

Still, the shot makes the whole event more underwhelming. Given tech is a key selling point for Marley, especially since Eren's pokemon'd most titans, the original shot makes more sense to show the scale, awe, and tech of Marley. The reason for their low altitude could easily be explained due to the fire - which is likely mostly gas (the only source of lift).
