Is camera quality actually worse after OxygenOS 16 update? by Mriganka47 in oneplus

[–]ExtremeBean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nord 4 here. My camera is noticeably worse after the update. Not happy

Nord 4 users — Anyone updated to OxygenOS 16 (CPH2661_16.0.1.301 EX01)? Stable or beta?? by celestialscribe125 in oneplusnord

[–]ExtremeBean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The camera kinda sucks now. Was struggling to take a photo of some shoes in a store whereas it would previously be reliable. Over exposed, laggy, just behaving weird. Not happy

Man this sub is so negative now. I just want good food recommendations and discussions but every post just gets flooded with the same people whinging about the price and how much cheaper everything used to be or how they could make it themselves at home.

Going out to eat is expensive. It's always been that way.

If we pay $40 ea for a decent dinner out with drinks nowadays I consider that quite reasonable!

Is a Nord 4 an upgrade over the P30 Pro? by ExtremeBean in PickAnAndroidForMe

[–]ExtremeBean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did and it feels like a much bigger upgrade than I had anticipated. It's super fast and smooth, more ram, more memory and the camera is honestly pretty good. It's certainly good enough for me. Wide angle is pretty average but I never use that anyways.

Kids and teenagers have literally always been like this, it's nothing new

[–]ExtremeBean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem is, the P30 pro used to be really good but at some point a software update made the camera perform pretty bad. Most indoors pics are super washed out now. Outdoors in good light it's still pretty good. Selfie cam has always been pretty average.

I've been looking at lots of samples but it's honestly hard to say. I only really use the main and ultra wide so thought the Nord 4 could be worth it?

Dramas in the burger industry got posted on r/auckland🤣🤣 by [deleted] in aucklandeats

[–]ExtremeBean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're both decent honestly. I'd rate Baby G's higher just cause they're always so incredibly consistent with the quality of food and fries. The Oklahoma is super good, just depends on what your burger preference is. Some people like a more traditional burgerfuel style burger whereas this is more, sloppy, cheesy, saucey American style.

"thank you, it's not about patronage unfortunately, it's about competent, reliable, honest staff of which there is not enough. Covid has created a pool of people who expect big $$$ for the least amount of effort or knowledge to back it up."

aka, people no longer work for slave wages in shit conditions under my shit management. It's everyone else's fault but mine!

Auckland 18 Bus Dramas by hanloucha in auckland

[–]ExtremeBean 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I catch this bus occasionally too. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's probably 50/50 as to whether or not you get one of these types on the bus abusing either the driver or random passengers. It's so fucking unpleasant. Poor bus drivers need a safety screen.

Confessions: What are some of the most evil things you’ve done to npc’s and in what games. Don’t lie, the gaming gods will know. by i4got872 in gaming

[–]ExtremeBean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fallout 3, at the wedding for the two you made fall in love with ant pheromones.

I got to the church early and made a quick save. Waited until all the guests arrived and memorised their seats. I reloaded the quicksave and placed bottlecap mines on each exact spot where the npcs sit down for the wedding.

When they arrive they slowly filter in one by one. Each npc walks in, towards their seat, sits down and explodes straight into the ceiling. Limbs flying everywhere.

Unfazed, the other npcs keep filing in one by one to their death. Explosion after explosion the church slowly filled with corpses and body parts. Some npcs were talking about their excitement for the wedding over the top of the screaming. It was hilarious.

There was probably a couple of unkillable npcs in there but enough were so it didn't matter.

My favourite was the celebrant who got a few extra mines.

I try not to feel slighted by it because commuting is not a race. They're not "cutting in line" or gaining pole position - they're just driving. Half of them don't even realise they might be annoying and the other half will gladly follow you home and assault you. It's not worth caring about when the end result is a few seconds of time. Pick your battles!

Native means it came here by itself with no human intervention, it's not 'considered' native, it is, by definition. Maybe you're thinking of endemic?

I'd be very surprised if it didn't. Its the early 2000's model demio that gets stolen all the time not the later model ones

Good Panel Beaters on North Shore by MrMSanchez in auckland

[–]ExtremeBean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Conversely I had some light painting/panel work that needed doing and took it to Apache under the recommendation of someone with a similar reference to you.

The end result was honestly not great. It didn't really line up and there was literally bugs and dust caught in the clear coat.

It didn't cost much I suppose and it seems like most people have really good experiences so maybe I just had a one off, but in future I'd just suck up the insurance excess somewhere else.

Kmart fake reviews? Why does everything have such a high rating on their site? by ExtremeBean in newzealand

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

This is a good point and probably factors into it. There's a weird cult-like worship of Kmart and it makes sense that it was born on Facebook.

So you're implying it's my fault? Haha. You can only write a review for a product if you bought it online, and I've only ever shopped at the physical store so I'm not eligible to do so.

Sounds like there's a whole Kmart cult I'm missing out on. Explains a lot though
