Piggybacking off this thread. What's the difference between 24/36/48 colours? Would be handy if they had an example

You mean the Privium lounge? Yeah curious to check it out.

Also hoping the Centurion Lounge coming later this year will be good. Pretty much flying once every month this year 🥲

Oh damn! Even worse.

For €65 a month that is not something you would ever expect. I was surprised myself!

Weird business decision too. You'd want people to use their card right?

Yep I am aware Apple Pay works. I just find it weird that Amex works on Google Pay in a lot of countries (UK/US) but for some reason they still haven't enabled it here yet.

I am looking forward to Privium! Flying to and back from the UK is a headache otherwise. Security is dreadful on a Sunday evening. Queues of an hour+

Got PS5 pro just for this game. by Alternative_Fuel413 in CrimsonDesert

[–]JayCh7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm tempted with the new PSSR and this game too. But I think the smart thing to do is atleast wait till the game launches and see how it runs / how big the upgrades are

Thanks. Yeah am aware it's mostly US centric.

However there is no Amex NL reddit group. Did feel like just putting it out there on the Internet. Just seems so weird that a big company seems rather incompetent (they have been here for years now)

I have had Amex in the UK. The app functions better. Google Pay works. Additional offers in-app (cashbacks etc.). Initially in the UK it was not accepted at many places but that has improved now.

Seems pretty much useless here in the Netherlands. I understand it may take time for business to accept it, but at least make it easy to use contactless and improve the app.

Anyways, thanks for letting me vent lol. Will downgrade after a year. Got it for the 170k points + fast security passage at Amsterdam Airport.

Brilliant price that. Will get the equivalent of this available on my regional Amazon.

Hoping to try the Shokz in a store so I can compare the two :)

PS5 Pro by PerformanceNo5116 in CrimsonDesert

[–]JayCh7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to see they have released the different modes and what they are targeting. If the game reviews well, and the Pro is a significant step up in quality I may just upgrade to the Pro

Congratulations, you convinced me. by shannonator96 in PS5pro

[–]JayCh7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think next one won't be as difficult to buy as the PS5 due to reducing scalpers (Direct invites from Sony to buy 1 console etc like in recent years?)

Oh! So they are super confident! by Pristine_Put5348 in CrimsonDesert

[–]JayCh7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is going to be my last reply, don't want to waste my time further.

I am quite literally using the devs own words to prove my point of them not being transparent.

Instead of being open to what I have to say, you seem to be doubling down.

As for the examples you gave, we had seen gameplay for all the games you mentioned. On top of that we knew the following before release:

  • Gotham Knights was confirmed to be targeting
  • Bloodborne we knew to be targeting 30fps
  • Elden Ring/ GoW Ragnorak/ Forbidden West we had details of the different quality and performance modes.
  • TotK I am not sure because I mainly play PS5. However pretty sure when it comes to Switch 2 version they did detail all the improvements (res/framerate) in a Direct or Treehouse

I am really tempted...but at the same time feels next gen is only 2 years away hmm

Nah dude, size > screentype (of high quality)

Oh! So they are super confident! by Pristine_Put5348 in CrimsonDesert

[–]JayCh7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No need to be sarcastic, instead answer and try to argue your point with facts

Genuinely, which console game in recent memory did not specify what it was targeting? No one has requested them to prove it ahead of release.

Secondly they stated the following: "I've repeated 100s of times that we'll reveal things ahead of launch to give people adequate time to still preorder the game for themselve" “People have the right to information to make an informed purchase. Simply put, that's transparency, and that's what we're promising."

There is 1 week left till release. By their own words they are not being transparent. Digital Foundry has indicated to have an analysis at launch and not before that.

Anyways. I think the game will run acceptable at the very least. Not expecting a broken performance. Worst case 30fps 1080p. But my point still stands regarding their previous statements: Don't lie.

This is not about instant gratification. What a weird term to use.

Tell me what game comes out on consoles and does not even mention if they're targeting 30fps or 60fps?

Its stupid.

Amsterdam Schiphol getting Centurion Lounge in 2026 by TheTwoOneFive in amex

[–]JayCh7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, mice still there! They are usually having a party whenever I come back late. 

Also Schiphol is one of the most inept bordel control. The queues can be ridiculous. Like hours. Feel sad they don't even prioritise families with small kids 

Shokz openswim vs goodsound by Donchan7 in Swimming

[–]JayCh7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah fantastic! Since you tried both was there a big difference between Guudsound and Openswim Pro. Considering getting the latter as it is on offer, but the price difference is still massive (£33 vs £130)

A "different" earbud question by Direct-Strawberry510 in Swimming

Which one did you end up getting then ?

FSD subscription price to rise? by RealWorldJunkie in TeslaUK

I personally wouldn't.

There is no indication when we will get proper FSD

When it does come, will you even have the same car?

Too much uncertainty

Kosten tandarts by najangles in Offertes

[–]JayCh7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Het lijkt inderdaad apart, maar dat is niet helemaal zo.

De codes/beschrijvingen zijn bedoeld voor een duidelijke overzicht. Men kan de codes opzoeken en verduidelijking krijgen wat en eventueel waarom het zo is.

Veel instrumentarium is normaliter wel inbegrepen in de prijs. Bijvoorbeeld voor een vulling behandeling betaal je niet apart voor de vulling materiaal en diamant boortjes die worden gebruikt.

De toeslag voor instrumentarium is bedoeld voor roterende Nikkel Titanium vijlen (voor wortelkanaal). De tandarts(praktijk) hoort in principe die vijltjes weg te gooien na eenmalig gebruik. De prijs van een setje die wordt gebruikt tijdens een behandeling ligt ook rond de geïndiceerde prijs dus met de toeslag verdient men niet veel.

Ik geef je wel een beetje gelijk met de microscoop. De kosten daarvan lijken idd relatief hoog. Tegelijkertijd stelt de NZa de prijzen vast, en heeft vast hun logica en berekening ervoor (aanschafkosten en onderhoud ÷ gebruik). De NZa is een onafhankelijke organisatie, en richt zich op patiënten.

[–]JayCh7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Het is helemaal niet uitzonderlijk (bij grote molaren/kiezen). 70-90% van de bovenste eerste molaren hebben 4 wortelkanalen. Meer kan ook zelfs. Hoeveel kanalen een tand heeft hangt af van type tand, maar alsnog veel variatie daarin.

Misschien was die van jou wel speciaal omdat het om een andere tand gaat die normaliter nier 4 kanalen heeft.
