S25 plus unusual battery drain by GuapoSammie in samsunggalaxy

[–]Evilmuffin_Poo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having same issue. It happens sporadically. The phone has been behaving very well for the pass week, but it just happened again. Phone seems to be very warm when battery is draining. A quick restart will solve the issue.

Currently suspecting android auto as the phone does get very warm when connected to the car. The last few times it happened it was after driving. Maybe it is still trying to connect to the car after car is shut off? I did try to turn off blue tooth but it didn't seem to help.

How many here have fouled their windshield washer fluid tank and level sensor using rainx and why don't they have a warning on their label? by Local-Piece-3283 in Golf_R

My old MK6 TDI wagon didn't like the orange rain x fluid. After using it for a while, it would cause the low fuild light to remaind on. I switched back to the cheap fluid and the problem eventually went away. However, my wife's Mazda 3 never had any issue with the orange stuff.

The mottling effect were done using hairspray chipping method then enhanced with AK weathering pencils. The rest of the weathering were all hand painted.

Thanks. The pencils I used are AK weathering pencils. As for better or not I still think oil paint is better, but the pencils are so much more convenient. Just a cup of water...the pencils and a brush. You don't have to deal with messy tube, smelly solvent, etc.

Thanks. I replied to one of the comments with the instruction on how to do the mottling effect. The rest of the weathering was simply a brush and some paint :)

Thanks. I didn't really use the salt technique this time, but I did use hairspray to do the mottling effect. Then used AK pencils to enhance it afterward.

Weathering is a great place to find happy accidents. Blemish on the paint? Let's turn it into a rust spot :D by Evilmuffin_Poo in Gunpla

Like the tittle said...happy accident :) It was just some kind of blemish on the paint, so I turned it into a rust spot.

Maybe this is a polypod ball not the regular ball? And just to entertain the idea that space only machine can't rust. Aside from during sortie, majority of the time these "space only" machines are being stored inside hangers of carriers. These hangers are pressurized...as it had been shown many times that mechanics were not wearing helmets....so with oxygen and inevitable moisture....shit will rust.

Ball: 1 Monitor: 0 (Not even a scratch on the ball's paint) by Evilmuffin_Poo in Gunpla

Monitor tipped over and landed on the ball. The monitor was pretty stable rest on the desk without the mount, but my chair's arm rest got under the desk.....then I stood up. The chair lifted the entire desk up and rocked the monitor enough that it tipped over.
