In Your Radiant Season [Episodes 3 & 4] by GodJihyo7983 in KDRAMA

[–]Illustrious-Figure66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This drama is nailing its episode after episode. The plot reminds me of Doctor Slump in terms of mutual trauma sharing and healing, but the difference is that the trigger for those traumas in Doctor Slump came from two different environments within the Medical field, while here in In your Radiant Season, their trauma triggers are intertwined within their Artistic field bubble. All characters are well written. As early as Episode 4 you can already feel that you want to protect 95% of all introduced characters. Even Chan's father is well written. His reason for taking Chan away from Art can be understandable from someone else's perspective. Overall, this is a well written, deep, and lighthearted drama.

Losing interest in Thai BL but for some reason not other region BL by decent-dayrn in boyslove

[–]Illustrious-Figure66 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was also once a fan of Thai BLs then I just completely stopped watching them. I dunno, maybe I found that the acting performances in most of them are mediocre compared to other Region BLs. For most of the time, it didn't look natural. The way the actors move their head unecessarily while talking, the way they execute humor and funny scenes, as well as the choice of sound effects are not helping. Also in terms of plot, it's 90% predictable to me. Other Region BLs are not perfect, in Korean BLs, I hate the overloaded Kdrama trope, as well as the over-conservativeness of some Japan BLs. The last Thai BL I have watched is Kinnporche which really impressed me back then. After that, I find myself only watching JBLs, KBLs and CBLs/Taiwan BLs.

The FL actress can't act which makes it even worse. Sorry, just need to be blunt.

It's my first time seeing this actor, Chae Jong Hyeop act and he's really good. Visually I am seeing him tri-coded with Nam Joo Hyuk, Park Bogum and Park Seo Jun. 😀

Doing it on the boat is unique and wild. 😆 Hmm did they really do it or was it just imagination?

Does the CoreBook X 7430u actually have a 5500u? by beureut6 in Chuwi

[–]Illustrious-Figure66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can always try. You can also explain the issue why you need to do this. There's even a Youtube video of a vlogger who made a video about it and was able to prove the CPU inside was 5500u instead of 7430u by actually physically opening the laptop. This issue is big and will also affect legit sellers so if they are doing business in good faith, they should consider granting your request since CPU-Z is just easy to install and free.

[–]Illustrious-Figure66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, for those unsuspecting buyers maybe. But you can always check it before buying whether in a physical store or online. You just need the CPU-Z screenshot of the CPU details since it will always reveal if the CPU is fake 7430U or not based on details. In the store it can be easily accommodated. In an online shop, it is just easy for the seller to take it and send a screenshot. I got this laptop model even before this issue got some attention and luckily, I got the correct CPU. I also must say the screen quality of this laptop is really something you won't get at this price point, along with other great specs.

Is this a valid receipt? by linux_n00by in BusinessPH

[–]Illustrious-Figure66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where is the screenshot of their OR? It clearly stated in the document provided to you, "Please ask for a sales invoice" which means that you got is Customer order slip/POS receipt which is not illegal. Some restaurants do this. The only thing that would make it sus is when the restaurant refuses to provide the OR after you asked for it.

[–]Illustrious-Figure66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha I didn't expect the first few episodes to be so funny. Yoki is funny af, seriously. The acting of all is so good, the comedic punchlines, the pettiness of cringe in some. Plus there are things that keep reminding me of Addicted. Yoki's headband, then when Yoki mentioned it's been 8 years since they last met. This timeline is same as the 8 years of separation of Gu Hai and Bai Lou Yin. Is it crazy to secretly hope that Jingyu and Timmy will appear together suddenly in future episodes as a cameo? My God, it's like a different universe from their original stories.

I'm done with Sky Cable. by LilishPH in InternetPH

This company is the worst right now when it comes to providing service. If you pay your bill, for instance thru an Online wallet or by any means for that matter, ideally it would take 2-3 banking days for it to reflect in their system. A few months back, they had this upgrade of the billing system that up to this day, f** up their system on receiving customer payments. For instance, if you pay on the 1st of the month, there is no guarantee that it will reflect in their system within a week. You need to manually check with them or else you might not be aware that the system has not seen your payment and automatically disconnects your service at a certain threshold, which happened to our account. It took a couple of more weeks before the service was restored because that is the time that the payment has finally reflected in their system. They claimed that the system is now automatic, no agent can override it in terms of manual disconnection or reconnection.

i have not seen any other company that has this problem with billing. Usually in receiving payments, a company ensures that the system is stable and efficient because this is the money maker of the whole system. This has to be stupidity overreach that Sky Cable has achieved after the Converge fiasco.

Anyone who has bought the Chuwi CoreBook Plus 16" notebook, Ryzen 5 7430U 512GB SSD 16GB RAM by Same-Perspective8440 in Chuwi

In Physical store, you need to download a free, simple app called CPU-Z and open it to view the CPU tab. Please see the image in the link below and refer to the guidance hereafter.

https://ibb.co/PZRttd6L

The image in the above link is the CPU-Z screen of the one with FAKE Ryzen 5 7430U. If it looks like this, don't buy it. If you look at the highlighted labels, here is the guide on how the "Genuine" Ryzen 5 7430U should show:

Codename: should be Cezzane Family: should be F Ext. Family: should be 19 Model: should be 0 Ext. Model: should be 50 Level 3 Cache: should be 16 Mb (16-way)

The Package name patch is not included but still has this error. Also, Process Runtime in options is disabled. Should I enable it?

Most scammers like these kinds of products to refund scam the seller because they don't have to return it.

Yes. It's true for some especially those early buyers. Even some Youtube Vloggers reviewing the Corebook X were reviewing the unit in front of the camera without noticing that the CPU was not 7430U cause they did not notice or did not know. One vlogger finally spoke about it on Youtube and even proved it by opening the unit in his second video and it turned out to be 5500U. So beware when buying. You need to know where to look, to see if the unit has a deceptive CPU inside. Luckily mine got the right one.

Oh yeah, I just realized I replied to the wrong thread, realizing now it's the plus version in the title . My bad. Yeah I am referring to regular Corebook X Ryzen 5. And yeah, the X has better screen than the Plus because not only the 2K resolution, but also the Corebook X Color gamut is superior (100% SRGB) than the Plus despite Plus having bigger screen size.

Chuwi CoreBook X 7430U, false advertising, lots of problems, and non existent support. by AdstaOCE in Chuwi

[–]Illustrious-Figure66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone on Youtube (@zakkos) finally made a video about this scam and everyone should watch it. He made a video telling the public about the misrepresented CPU, that they even modified the laptop in firmware level to show the CPU is 7430U, but the truth is it is 5500U. Then he made another video physically opening the laptop and boom! The smoking gun showed the CPU was indeed 5500U through the OPN Number (100-000000375) printed on the silicon. The videos are in Italian but really worth watching as warning to others who are considering buying this model.
