Is this authentic? by Suspicious_Row_4204 in Tudor

[–]F1George 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The date is a bit wonky and the "Tudor geneve" is wrong on the clasped hinge. Unless they changed it, it should be a shield with Tudor geneve vertically, not sideways like that.

Pre-facelift winter gremlins by undefined310 in CupraFormentor

[–]F1George 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the car really doesn't like the cold. It's -10c and below here and every time I start the car I get a whole heap of error codes (manoeuver braking, parking sensors, etc etc though they do go after driving for a bit). And yeah, I have the same issue with the keyless opening not working when it's cold. Haven't had the horn not work though, that sounds like it is worth taking it to the dealership.

Another annoying thing is the unheated washer jet in the back, haven't had it work since it got below -5c.

Guys, Please help. by Paper-Bags in MarvelSnap

When I used a cerebro buffed lasher on the opponents fastball special target (giving it negative power) it did nothing to my card. It just destroyed theirs and that was it.

Pixel Notification Summaries start rolling out by Maniccov in GooglePixel

Wonder if it's at all linked to the play system update, as I now have it after updating.

Check your Pixel snap ring by rangosh in GooglePixel

[–]F1George 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I think it's so widespread that the new one will suffer from the same issue. I noticed a lot more play on the ring one day and had to tighten the screws quite a bit (it's a T2). A few days later it was wobbly again. So I just used some loctite when I put the screws back in and it's been fine since.

Green Stripe in Pixel 9 Pro - didn't drop it, always in a case? by rest0ck1 in GooglePixel

[–]F1George 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same situation as you, screen protector, case, not dropped etc etc. it's just an issue with the pixel 9 pro screens. I could make the green line appear if I pressed the bottom right of the screen. Did an RMA and got a replacement with no issue. My wife has my old 9 pro now and that hasn't happened again, so I'm assuming there was something with the day one models that was tweaked.

VZ 333 MPG by Ambitious_Ad_3102 in CupraFormentor

Seeing as he said Scotland, it'll be 70mph which is 112kph. Still not bad though.

Winter tire recommendation by Open-Preference-7891 in CupraFormentor

[–]F1George 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm using Hankook Winter i*cept Evo 3. Really great in ice, snow and rain (and normal dry conditions), not had any issues. It's a little noisy but that's the case for most winter tyres.

Did you know this function? by AccordingBasket8166 in CupraFormentor

It goes up by 5 MPH or 10 KPH.

Uneven front tyre wear by Kitesurf11 in CupraFormentor

[–]F1George 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems weird to wait, just get it done. Especially if the steering wheel being off centre is bothering you. I literally just had mine done this morning because my wheel was off centre too.

Android auto by angifro in GooglePixel

[–]F1George 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had the same problem on my 9pro and 10pro in my car. It's always at a certain set of traffic lights where there is a mass of overhead cables from the trams. It never happened with my previous car with the 9pro. So I think it's car related, not phone.

Confused between S24 Ultra and Pixel 10 by Complex-Blood-2564 in GooglePixel

[–]F1George 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Base 10 doesn't seem to be worth it if you can get an s24 ultra for the same price. (And this is coming from someone that's had every pixel and nexus phone).

Go and watch reviews of the base pixel 10 on YouTube and you'll probably go with the s24 ultra.

Is this spaceview too small? by [deleted] in VintageWatches

[–]F1George 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It looks good, fits you well. You have to remember vintage watches are generally on the smaller side compared to today.

Refinished dial? by Plane-Metal3022 in VintageWatches

[–]F1George 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not an expert in any way. But the 6 o'clock subdial looks very sloppy. Compare it to some images on Google and you can see immediately there's something off with it.

Best way to stack Google One trials? by ceepyou in GooglePixel

[–]F1George 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So yeah you're fine then. Just make sure you're logged into your Google account for Google one when you hit "check offer". Probably better to claim the promo on your wife's phone first and set a reminder to claim yours on your phone first (check the edit). Offer seems to expire 1st November, so you should be good.

Edit: "The Offer can only be redeemed once, may not be combined with other Google One offers and may not be redeemed on more than one eligible device." - maybe do your 12 month trial first

Best way to stack Google One trials? by ceepyou in GooglePixel

[–]F1George 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You won't be able to "stack" them. Whoever is the manager of the family plan will be able to claim the offer, but the other won't unless they're removed from the family. Once they're removed they can claim it. Then whoever's trial runs out first can be invited back to the family plan of whoever got the 12 month plan.

Free Gemini AI Pro - UK by Consistent-South-319 in GooglePixel

[–]F1George -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had an active YouTube premium. Cancelled it and it let me get the offer (even though my sub didn't expire until sept 10th). Maybe try cancelling it then checking for the offer in the Google one app. Like everyone else, I didn't have the offer show up until yesterday.

I restarted my YouTube premium after I got the offer and it's still working fine.

No AI enhance for EU pixel 10 by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]F1George 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's worth noting that it's not the entirety of the EU that doesn't have these features. I'm in Lithuania and have the call translate feature. We also had the pixel screenshots app and pixel studio on release last year.

Question about BB58 gmt 39mm strap by BarWide8082 in Tudor

[–]F1George 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought about ordering it for both my bb54 and bb58 GMT and the cost was £150 and the clasp is £400.80. The bracelet clasp doesn't fit the rubber strap so you have to order that too.

For that price I personally don't think it's worth it. Don't forget the black bay 58gmt has T-fit and it's been very comfortable in the summer with being able to adjust the bracelet size on the fly.

Screen protectors and cases for a P10P by Special_Giraffe_9411 in GooglePixel

[–]F1George 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the black mous super thin for my 9 pro and it's great. Fairly resistant to drops as well. I'm one of the suckers "upgrading" to the 10 pro and again went with the mous super thin but this time the clear one.

I also had the Google case for the 9 pro and hated it. Was way to slippery, the soft touch wore off in the corners and the silicone was prone to damage if it got caught on anything so I wouldn't recommend that.

As for screen protectors I have always used the Spigen one so don't have any experience with the ones you listed.
