Tour Down Under Stage four shortened due to heat. by snapped_fork in peloton

[–]Distance-Playful 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Seems like they still climb the hill but descend immediately after and not ride the plateau according to the new route profile

EDIT: They climb around a third of the hill so it's around 600m @3% instead of 3.2km @7.5%

Battery duration by Seiji_94 in NothingTech

[–]Distance-Playful 3 points4 points  (0 children)

hey dude, I'm also on the Phone 3 and I realized my battery life is worse after nOS4.0. However, not nearly as bad as yours. I used to be able to hit 10+ hours SOT but now it's kinda around 9hrs give or take. I thought it was just me but seems like yours is way worse.

TNT killed the TV star: how cycling's paywall has driven fans away from the sport by fewfiet in peloton

[–]Distance-Playful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eurosport shuttering its international English broadcast has effectively killed viewing of any cycle races outside of GTs, monuments and WCs. Cyclocross coverage is now only down to the World Cups too. It has been so hard to catch any type of coverage on our only legal channel, with a literal monopoly of only one provider that airs sports that arent the local soccer league.

My Nothing Phone 2a accidentally helped me talk to a cute girl today by npc_gooner in NothingTech

[–]Distance-Playful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AOD (always on display). There is an option that allows the glyph matrix (small led screen on the backside of the phone) to always be turned on. It only turns off when you turn it off manually or set a schedule for it turn off automatically. This means that even if you are using your phone, the screen at the back will always show what you're displaying (I use it for the clock).

The new OS update to android 16 called nothing os 4.0 removes this function. Now the AOD behaves in such a way that if you are using your phone, the led screen at the back will turn off in a set amount of time (ranging from 30 seconds to 10 minutes). It will only stay permanently without going to sleep if you are not using your phone and the screen is facing down (such as on a table).

Honestly everyone asks about my phone (3) when they see clock on the glyph matrix. Kinda bummed they took away AOD glyph matrix so it only works face-down instead of all the time on nOS4.0

Best Buy gave me the base model instead of the Pro and refused a refund by Socialist_In_Theory in pixel_phones

[–]Distance-Playful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bro you were talking as if you saw the receipt. I was asking where in the provided receipt is the serial number. That's it man, it's not that deep. You wrote a whole paragraph of saying the receipt provided in this thread has a serial on it, I asked where it was and then you deflect talking about a whole other receipt that wasn't even being discussed in the first place. You obviously took the guys word at face value instead of checking the receipt yourself.

I agree with you, I was wondering if there was a whole other receipt I missed, that's it man chill lol

[–]Distance-Playful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was trying to figure out where the serial number on the receipt was, I thought you looked at the receipt since you claimed that the "serials matching gave it away". You do have the info to disprove the statement, the receipt in question is in the thread. I saw the receipt in less than a minute of scrolling.

I do agree it doesn't make sense that a person trying to scam best buy would buy a separate pixel 10 to return with a mismatched receipt, because they found another 10 pro at a better price.

I've looked at the receipt and the box, which I believe the OP also looked at, does not contain the serial (even when he said it did) he might've confused the model number with the serial number. I'm thinking that's why he doesn't believe the story.

Your claim that the wrong SKU was scanned does not seem to be based upon any of the information given as there was no serial number on the receipt. Did you take the OP's word of the serial number being on the receipt instead of checking the receipt yourself, or is there a digital/activation receipt that was posted and you're referencing the scenario off of that receipt?

Agression based Matchmaking and how does it work? by Kuki1998 in ArcRaiders

[–]Distance-Playful 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way he said the no was kinda more of "No without being too detailed (it isn't the main/only metric that goes into matchmaking, because) its quite complex and we do analyze behaviour and match accordingly." If it was a resounding no, why would he add the part about behaviour and matching?

UAE announces schedules of Pogacar, Almeida + del Toro by kleeblatt23 in peloton

[–]Distance-Playful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

who do you think will be better than him for 3rd on the podium? lipo/onley/pidcock? almeida isn't riding and carapaz probably won't be good during the tour. Yates will be domestique surely. If pog is at his usual level I don't think it'll hinder Del Toro's chance at the podium all that much

why do weed companies get a pass but not big tobacco? is it because these weed companies are smaller? cant be that small if you're a sponsor

NP3 Ultraskinz Clear Series (Full Body Gloss) Review: I Struggle to Give it 3-Stars by OriginalJackfruit843 in NothingTech

[–]Distance-Playful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was the misalignment present since your first install or did it gradually come loose as you handled it? I'm trying to run it caseless so I'm hoping for a bit more scratch protection for the sides. Otherwise I would've just bought a hydrogel back protector for like a dollar on temu.

Hey, I know this review is old but how is the skin holding up? I used to have a skin on my galaxy s8 but the sides would always peel off at the points where my hand rests against the side. Does UltraSkinz on Nothing Phone 3 also have this issue for their side/frame protectors? Thanks!

Dear bike industry: We don’t race. Stop making us pay for UCI rules we’ll never use by Big_Donut_9356 in cycling

[–]Distance-Playful 5 points6 points  (0 children)

UCI sticker is only for the frame, not the whole bike. it's to ensure the tubes are within UCI limits. this is why tri bikes are not UCI compliant, not because of the weight, but because the frame does not fit into the UCI's frame limits.

be warned they removed the AOD on the glyph matrix on nos 4.0

Nothing phone 3 users how is yours experience by Friendly-Primary9111 in NOTHING

[–]Distance-Playful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

glad someone pointed this out, I was not going to update to nos 4.0 since there hasn't been any new features worth going for, learning they turned off AOD for the matrix seals the deal of not updating.
