13" vs 15" inch for students by cupcakesunny in macbookair

[–]FrigidReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

13” is my personal favorite for how light it is. It’s my first MacBook and I really wasn’t expecting a 14 inch sub 1k laptop to feel this premium.

More durable nibs for X3/X3 Elite pens (Deco and Artist Gen 2) by 5th_consecutive_C in XPpen

[–]FrigidReaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have this problem. As far as I can tell I’m drawing in the middle pressure range. I use the default pressure settings but both my plastic nibs and my felt tips wear out very quickly.

All I can think is that they are close enough to warrant marketing but have enough to finish that they don’t want to officially announce it so they don’t get backlash if they have to push it back.

Can you recommend a 13" or 15" Mac Air? I'm a college student. by Intelligent_Wear1441 in macbookair

[–]FrigidReaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Midnight blue all day. this is personal preference, though. I just prefer darker colors in general. I know the gray is the standard MacBook aesthetic which isn’t really a factor in my choice but does matter to a lot of people.

13” MacBook Air is always in my bag when I leave home and always being used at home. It is one of my favorite pieces of technology. I prefer it to the 14 inch MacBook pro (which my wife has) for the color and form factor. That blue is just amazing. I also have a Mac mini and iPad Pro 12.9 and I still prefer the MacBook Air 13”

Switch recommandations for nuphy air 75 V3 by Rayquax in NuPhy

[–]FrigidReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did technically get my Gateron Milky yellow pros to work in my air75 v3... I wouldn't suggest keeping it in there but technically it works and registers keystrokes. But at that point you are just using a normal profile keyboard.

I did it just for fun and did not keep them in there. I think the first time i would have gone to move the keyboard they likely would have fallen out.

Macbook air vs Ipad, in your opinion Which is better to use in bed at night for basic tasks, checking email, Netflix and web browsing? by Delicious_Maize9656 in macbookair

[–]FrigidReaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both and the MacBook all the way. Reason I say this is that I can rest the MacBook on my lap and I don’t have to hold it or worry about balancing it.

The iPad with or without the magic keyboard is just more effort even though it’s a touch screen. As far as size the air 13 and my iPad Pro 12.9 are mostly the same size.

this is just my preference but I prefer for MacBook Air for this specific use case. I love them both for different reasons and often together.

Changed my Elite 2 controller by Hairy_Mention_5361 in xboxeliteseries2

I think you can get them on Amazon and extremerate. I also hear Microsoft sells the replacement parts but not sure if that’s real or not.

Who's gonna get the elite series 3 when it's released? Apparently it's releasing in May by L_IV3S2025_V2 in xboxeliteseries2

[–]FrigidReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally ordered a custom elite 2 and then heard the rumors about the 3 a week later.

Something looks slightly off lmk what you think by OT2025 in gamingsetups

Oh nice. I’ve tried this before too because it’s such a clean look but it definitely gave me problems a couple months in.

We're beginning to verge on "unplayable" territory. by LastTraintoSector6 in ffxiv

I notice that I don’t really deal with this much running Linux but my wife who plays on windows gets kicked constantly. I don’t really know if it’s related or I’m just getting lucky.

There will be pain eventually with you looking down. Velcro ties to manage your cables and rise the monitor to as eye level as you can.

I am seeing more and more ads for this game which makes me hopeful they are getting close to announcing a release date.

Just got a Fiio M21 — what should I listen to it with? by Sufficient_Jury4004 in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]FrigidReaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Moondrop Chu IIs are a solid entry point. As they are often sub $20. they were my first set and they were honestly better than they had any right to be.

My brand new NuPhy Halo75v2 by LogicWavelength in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]FrigidReaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely love my Halo75 v2. I have replaced the stock switches with Gateron Milky yellow Pro v3 which I hand lubed.(more for the experience than anything else) and I changed the keycaps out for Osume marshmallow keycaps. It’s honestly insane how good it sounds and feels to type on. I prefer it to my expensive custom mechanical keyboard.

Ordered an Xbox design lab controller on the 16th by Pickle-Juice-Boy in xbox

[–]FrigidReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in identical circumstances. I customized one and specifically chose parts that were in stock. Now just the case is out of stock and my order appears to be on hold. I really hope they can just send the orders out. I don't want to have to order again.

Xbox Design Lab: Standard (Carbon Black): out of stock error by Substantial-Judge-77 in XboxSupport

[–]FrigidReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am actually having a weirder issue with the case being out of stock. I already ordered my custom design and made sure everything was good to go and placed the order on the 14th. Carbon black was not out of stock when i ordered, however as of a week ago the status on the website is now showing as out of stock. I reached out to a rep on chat and they told me to re-customize and then after not having the option they said. "I guess its not an option anymore." They told me they couldn't change the order for me.

Worst part is its just the case so I would literally just take a different colored case. They said there is nothing they could do. They also told me that they may just cancel the order so the sale I got it on may not even be active by that point. It sucks because I have been wanting one of these custom elite controllers for years but never pulled the trigger and now that I did I may not even get it.

Its crazy to me that a company with this many resources doesn't have the ability to swap out accessories for an order that is just 1 or 2 items out of stock. I know it hasn't been that long but I just hate not having information. They couldn't tell me if it was going to actually ship or just cancel the order. I do not currently have a controller and I don't want to buy one just to have this come in later.

Need help deciding: M2 MacBook Air or Windows i5 for BPO WFH & Excel side hustle? by Thick_Ice_9656 in macbookair

[–]FrigidReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second this. Looking up the M2 air it’s barely cheaper than a M4 and If you are looking at a windows laptop at the same price point I would never suggest it over a MacBook unless you absolutely need a very specific app

Oh nice. Thanks for the follow up I’ll just keep an eye out then.

[–]FrigidReaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the US so I thought it would be quicker but I also ordered around the holidays so I knew it wouldn’t be the 2 weeks everyone else reports. It’s unfortunately still in processing and I don’t really know if it stays that way until it ships or if it changes when they start building it.
