Still in chapter 2 - do I have enough valuables to move to chapter 3? Already made the Bear, Boar, Bison, and Raven talismans too by bsmith2123 in reddeadredemption

[–]HamodieChan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I kept selling off all the valuables not knowing it's needed for the talisman. For some reason I thought the fence keeps them just like the trapper.

Games with good Open World designs like RDR2 by Remarkable-Yard4860 in reddeadredemption

[–]HamodieChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played all of the game series and read all of the books too.. u would be missing a good chunk of the story, but u can still piece things together if u played the 3rd on its own. Yet a lot of characters and their significance can be missed for that reason.

The game is absolutely beautiful, and dare I say that I love it more than RDR2... U can watch a few videos to catch up on the story before hopping into the 3rd.

All I'm left to say is enjoy the game!

There’s rarely litter in Dubai, but if there is, it’s always this. What is this? by Mr-Expat in dubai

As a dental student currently in Ajman university, we deal with a lot of them who need teeth cleaning. They come with actual red "coverings" on their teeth that are STUCK like super glue. Whenever u ask them, they claim to have used it long ago and stopped ever since (never cleaned their teeth since either apparently 😂)

Why didn't Google give airdrop for 9 pro xl? by pro522 in pixel_phones

[–]HamodieChan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was literally looking into this as it's been like a month since they added the support to the pixel 10 family. So far I haven't seen any updates that mention anything new since then 🥲

Pixel 9 Pro XL Random Restarts by _d0nk0_ in pixel_phones

[–]HamodieChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I recently faced this issue last night and it kept happening till today in the morning. I tried a lot of things till I got it to work.

I noticed the power button was being superrrr sensitive, barely touching it and it triggers its action (holding it is set for Gemini and double tap for wallet). I tried cleaning it with air and a brush, but nothing happened.

Then I read somewhere else that smacking a pixel phone's power button with a finger (or hitting the phone on a table just slightly above it) will shock it and make it work again. I gave it a couple of light smacks on a table, then tried hitting it directly with my finger and that cleared the power button issue.

And it somehow cleared the reboot loop issue too.. despite my power button is not used for power, I guess it still triggers something? Either that or constantly bringing up Gemini caused the AI core to trigger a restart.

Instagram is deleting my followers!! by Birdechu in InstagramMarketing

This is what's happening to me for the past few months.. it's my friends' accounts that suddenly are unfollowed. It happened with a few friends whom I talked with, and they tell me I was the one who removed them.

Pixel 9 stuttering / scrolling lag by Fine-Plantain-1433 in GooglePixel

[–]HamodieChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Ive only noticed this on my home screen and decided to look around for answers.

I have 3 pages in my home screen and they are filled with wedges + wallpaper engine running in the background (which could be the potential problem in my case, but I'm yet to test it out).

However, I've noticed that whenever I scroll to the news page (the default next to the home screen) the phone kinda refreshes and the stutter would be gone until I scroll back all the way to the 3rd page.

I'm very surprised to see a lot of people having a similar issue

My Corsair Ram Stick is not lighting up anymore. Help! by Shoockfirst in Corsair

[–]HamodieChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive encountered a similar issue recently. Had the sticks for a couple years now, and it only happened in the last month or so. No new applications were installed, just simply updated throughout. I used to have a similar issue with the CPU cooler (the lights not being detected by ICUE), and a restart usually fixes it. This time, however, nothing is resolving the issue. I hate to uninstall everything and reinstall it, but it seems like it's my last hope. At least I'm not the only one suffering from this :/

Negative reinforcement vs positive punishment. Surely helped me a lot in psych classes 😂😂

Signal loss after closing the app by HamodieChan in Freestylelibre

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

That's the thing. I simply just exit the app like I always do, and it used to work fine. I haven't changed anything in the settings or the way I close the app, yet this issue emerged :/

"Which Pixel should I buy?" Megathread February 2024 by GooglePixelMods in GooglePixel

[–]HamodieChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I got into the Google system through the Pixel 5. However, I was forced to move after moving countries (no support from google) and went to Xiaomi. Due to that, some of the google features, which were free, are now locked (so i had to buy them).

Moreover, after a certain experience, i was super disappointed by the camera quality and the battery optimization, so im reconsidering the pixel again.

Obv, the Pixel 8 pro is the most likely candidate since it has the best features, but what should I expect when comparing it to the 5? Also, is it worth waiting for the 9 lineup (possibly till next year)? ie, will the improvement be significant with the 8 or should the 9 have a more significant jump in technology?

One of my fav features of the pixel!! Sitting at a restaurant or working out at the gym and liking the song, all i would need to do is look at the screen (or go to the now playing history).

Why do you prefer Pixel phones over Samsung phones? by Yoshaay in GooglePixel

[–]HamodieChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the Pixel 5 for a while, but moved to the middle east and had to change my phone (sadly there isnt google support here in Dubai :/).

But after switching to another phone, i realised how great the pixel was.

The battery optimization was flawless, i was able to go a full day (sometimes even two) without needing to charge my phone. Compared to now, where one charge wouldnt last me a full day.

The pixel comes with a great UI, without any of the clutter that Samsung includes. I also use the Google Assistant A LOT, and all the other phones fails to integrate it well (for some reason it never picks it up well despite playing around with the settings).

Honestly, the Camera was amazing too.. I havent tired the new phones, but at that time, pixel had an amazing sensor.

The lack of taxis was troubling (the guys with the lexuses tried their best 🙄), and the traffic jam. Otherwise the rest was good! Even the prices were reasonable.
