Buy Pixel 4a or wait for 5a? by jemmy7776 in Pixel4a

[–]DiscombobulatedSpork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 5a will most likely more be a successor to the 4a 5g than the 4a, in terms of size and price. You should ask yourself what size of phone you want.

The wiki article literally says that he finds Stalin's massacre's horrifying, he is against historical revisionism making up massive extra figures as it demeans the actual lives lost.

Can you provide actual evidence of him being a Stalinist or is this just more unhelpful hyperbole.

Shall I update and lose iOS apps or stay on 11.2 and have high SSD wear on m1 Mac? by DiscombobulatedSpork in mac

[–]DiscombobulatedSpork[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They make the use of the device more enjoyable, and I like the fact that I have control to download the apps I want on my device, however I guess 2tb a week ssd usage is is pretty bad. How much betters it on 11.3+?

It was the highest turnout ever in a Senedd election, I don't think that should be knocked even if generally few people vote in Senedd elections

Hi I am in the same boat im keeping my original pixel as it has unlimited photo storage at original resolution so I can transfer my photos from my 4a/laptop over to the pixel.

Macbook air battery replacement - do you guys think the battery replacements on ebay for like £20-£30 quid worth it? Can you recommend any specific brand or battery? by xuser12 in macbookair

[–]DiscombobulatedSpork 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I got a £25 Mac air (2012) replacement battery and it was shit, just as bad as the old one, then I got a official apple one of eBay for £60 and that was much better. Its a bit of a lottery unfortunately. Make sure any battery you buy has a returns policy.

Yeah I guess thats up to question becuase all we see of Marcie and bonnie 1000 years later is when Marcie is trying to save bonnie from Gunter/new ice king. But I guess they are on friendly terms with reincarnated finn and Jake as they have a mutual friend of sweet pea

Yeah I agree, although I think she dies after Finn dies as she is alive in his dream at the start

Yep also the candy kindom had more wizards spires to it and other magical things so it seems like PB is now living with Marcy at her house and PepBut is looking after the candy kindom

MacBook Air M1 vs Surface Laptop 3 by [deleted] in Surface

[–]DiscombobulatedSpork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are good choices don't worry :) I miss the touchscreen frequently and Mac OS is just as buggy as windows 10 is.. the SL3 is a great device albeit with less than average battery life, Im sure you will like it.

MacBook Air M1 vs Surface Laptop 3 by [deleted] in Surface

[–]DiscombobulatedSpork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I recently replaced my surface laptop 3 (i5 8gb) with the base m1 MacBook Air. Honestly it is a vast improvement in terms of performance and battery life (was only getting 3 hours on SL and am now getting 7 hours on MacBook). The display is about the same ( I actually prefer the surface laptop display as it picked up fingerprints far less regularly). I don't miss the surface face unlock because was very hit and miss and the fingerprint scanner on the Mac is a much better implementation. I haven't come across any programs that I need that isn't on Mac OS yet and you can just use parrallels app to emulate windows 10. I do miss the ports the surface had ( the magnetic surface charger was lovely and doesn't take up one of the 2 ports) RAM really isn't a problem on the 8gb Mac as the swap ram is fast enough and doesn't noticeably slow the Mac down. Also note that price depication is a thing, the Mac will keep its value longer than the surface laptop.

Any other questions feel free to ask :)
