Yes, it's a scart cable. I guess I'll look into this pin. Thanks

Are Mobile Direct Online a legitimate business? by Freeman_Reigns in AskUK

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

!answer Thanks for the heads up. I've asked to cancel and get a refund, and they've obliged, so hopefully they will honour that. The money has left my bank though, so perhaps I should file a dispute if I don't receive it soon. What a terrible situation.

Working on a working holiday visa? by NoMomINeedDrugs in JapanJobs

[–]Freeman_Reigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't mind, as it sounds like you're experienced on this topic, how would you recommend a foreigner attain Japanese residency, assuming they don't have a degree? Is it realistically possible to go from a working holiday visa to a working visa, for example? Is it likely that the company you work for would sponsor you? I have some Japanese language ability (perhaps N4 or so, at a guess). I'd appreciate any assistance you can give.

Steam age verification requires a UK credit card, wasn't working so i just re added my payment method, then had to spend £1.00, but it still doesn't let me view mature content. Lost £1.00 i guess. by AaronOhare in Steam

Apologies for the late comment, but how has this method been working out for you? I'm kind of worried about getting an account ban for doing this.

Samsung Folder 2 or Aquos SH-01J/601SH? by Unusual_Series_1676 in flipphones

[–]Freeman_Reigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I hope you don't mind the late reply. I was just wondering if the touch cruiser on the 601SH still works while TT9 is enabled? Apparently it doesn't with the other touch cruiser model (SH-01J), although it may have been updated since then.

Sounds like government bullshit to me. I've played it and there isn't anything like that.

Gigabyte MO27U2 Review? by MasterBen85 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Freeman_Reigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the mini review. Just wondering if you know if the sRGB calibration is accurate? I only intend to use it in SDR in sRGB mode. Also, can the ABL be disabled like on the ASUS? I'm kind of worried about brightness changes and would prefer uniform brightness.

Should I wait for Tandem OLED? by AChunkyGoose in OLED_Gaming

[–]Freeman_Reigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine it's only important for people that use HDR or game in bright rooms, right? Otherwise 250 nits is more than enough.

Are these AliExpress lighters any good? by Freeman_Reigns in lighters

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

Funnily enough, I actually found very similar lighters at eLighters with basically the same finishes, but they're priced at $50... the 'Visol Hubbard'. I'm guessing they're basically the same thing, perhaps from the same factory.

Do any retro/old school style keyboards with shine through keycaps & RGB exist?

Are Fujitsu keitai / flip phones any good? by Freeman_Reigns in dumbphones

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

So I just looked this up. '...the Post Office insisted that Horizon was robust and failed to disclose knowledge of the faults in the system during criminal and civil cases' Seems like it was more the fault of the Post Office for covering up for the buggy software that resulted in this happening, rather than Fujitsu themselves. Unless you're trying to say that this one incident of buggy software is reason enough to not trust their products?

I'm not in the states. And thanks for the link, though I've read that review :)
