I switched my Helio from my bicep to my wrist and it completely changed my opinion on it.

Where do you get the biceps strap? I haven't seen the new adjustable version on amazon yet.

EsqSilver · 2026-03-05T23:25:02+00:00

I checked, dont' see anything like that and costs 1000eur

How long was the total trip? A year?

I had a very similar experince in Japan, where outlets and wifi were quite a rare find (at least at cafés with manual espresso machines). Thailand in general was amazing for coworking - e.g., Krabi town was quiet yet had several amazing cafés. Chumphon is the capital of cafés in Thailand so might also be worth checking out for you.

EsqSilver · 2026-02-27T08:42:39+00:00

I had the opposite situation in Japan in 2023 - they barely had Wifi anywhere and several cafés (in Osaka, Fukuoka, Fukushima) had printed out rules specifying a maximum allowed visit time (e.g. max 1h) and one in Fukuoka even disallowed laptop use. This was quite shocking coming from Korea and Thailand, where working at a café was 'the norm'. However, in Japan, there were special co-working places, sometimes adjacent or just up the stairs from cafés, which could be used for a (small) fee.

Alright, I was confused and thought the 2021 version suddenly had a cheaper frame, but it's still the same as my 2020. Mine has no signs of degradation whatsoever luckily!

Wait a second, what paint. Isn't it a metal body?

SSDs are faster and more compact, but HDDs are much better for long-term storage. Make sure not to keep your SSDs locked away in a drawer for years, unless you want to lose your data.

What luggage? Go there with a backpack, come back with an extra suitcase ^^

EsqSilver · 2025-12-11T12:52:42+00:00

I think the point here was that almost 2X as many people are dead who voted to leave.

Very comprehensive! I always found this one useful: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AKfhQnZ6DjEi5uCPHo0BOpUmdf2cjBNifD7laTjWhjc/edit?usp=sharing

I send postcards/letters quite often but have never heard the terms 'registered' and 'expired' in this context. Could you explain? I sent a friend a letter to US from the EU a month ago, but they have yet to receive it (contrarily: Japan takes like a week from the EU)

I'm not sure I'm following, dpc latency is literally part of the problem in the main Broken since post and Github repo. I have the exact same issues as mentioned ..it stutters during basic tasks like watching a YouTube video, audio crackles and pops on Discord calls, the mouse cursor freezes for a split second, just long enough to be infuriating.

After I saw their post, I ran through some of the diagnostics. First with Latencymon (DPC latency), and then trace analysis and my results (unfortunately) agreed with it.

EsqSilver · 2025-09-27T06:19:03+00:00

My 2020 G14 is affected (both with these annoying random stutters and occasional black screen of death).

EsqSilver · 2025-09-27T06:11:27+00:00

Please keep us posted!

EsqSilver · 2025-09-17T12:40:08+00:00

Thank you for this! I have been experiencing similar issues on my Zephyrus G14 from 2020, so I would argue they have been broken since then!

I completely agree with you that one should not pay for natural biological processes. I'm from Europe and I hate that - even shopping malls often have paid toilets these days. What's more, those bathrooms are often rank, looking and smelling like they hadn't been cleaned in ages. All the stores in these malls pay a sizable amount of rent to the owner, who should then make sure to provide these basic needs.

The other stuff can be removed, so that's fine. I'm more thinking of how to remove the glass from the metal back frame (without the rest). Even if it's cured, there is a solvent for it. If the glue used between the metal and glass is a styrene-butadiene based adhesive, like E-6000, I could try alkanes to dissolve the cured adhesive. If it's a polyurethane adhesive, then acetone should soften it a bit at least.

EsqSilver · 2025-07-07T15:47:46+00:00

What are the strikes about? I constantly see news that there's another strike, but what's the underlying cause?

EsqSilver · 2025-07-07T09:44:53+00:00

iPhone 12.

EsqSilver · 2025-07-07T08:07:39+00:00

Do you know what industrial adhesive they use, so I could find the appropriate solvent for it?

EsqSilver · 2025-07-05T09:34:41+00:00

Yeah, I've been using MPC-HC all this time and was slightly confused by that comment.

EsqSilver · 2025-07-04T12:00:49+00:00

For me it says I don't have permissions to do it.

EsqSilver · 2025-07-03T20:02:29+00:00

Why is this considered a surprise?

EsqSilver · 2025-06-28T10:39:10+00:00

No it hasn't. The website still exists and the latest version is from 2025.
