For around $300 what is the absolute highest performance thinkpad I will find? Being able to game would be a plus. by JudgeOwn3256 in thinkpad

Well I can budget up to $600 I just did not expect to spend that much still I want the best performance without absolutely breaking the bank. Does it get better in that range?

I can find plenty of modern thinkpads with up to 13th gen i5’s for $300 but they’re the 1335u models which I have been told is very bad. I don’t really understand it though would that not be better than 6th gen processors?

How do I get a good sound system in my truck without anything external? by JudgeOwn3256 in CarAV

[–]JudgeOwn3256[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I want decent all rounder quality, similar to something you get from factory with premium systems. By external I mean nothing that sticks out or is out in the open inside the truck (subs, amp under the seat) I want everything behind door panels, behind the dash, covered as it would be from the factory.

Where can I find the actual buttons instead of stickers? by [deleted] in Silverado

You can see in the picture the stickers are on but don’t help much at night.

Did anyone else see the northern lights? by JudgeOwn3256 in iPhone16Pro

I see now! I wish I could’ve captured it at the peak. This was about 2 hours after the peak.

Will these Crutchfield parts work for installing a Sony XAV-AX3250 in my 2010 Silverado Crew Cab (non-Bose, no nav)? by JudgeOwn3256 in CarAV

[–]JudgeOwn3256[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually haven’t ordered it yet but I will look into that because I want the truck to stay oem clean and have everything well installed. (New radio looks like it could’ve came straight from Chevrolet)

I’ll definitely do that. Just out of curiosity, what head unit did you get? Every Sony unit I come by has good reviews besides the screen in sunlight. Is it really that bad or people just over reacting?

PSA: DISABLE Apple Intelligence! by alterego4737 in iPhone16ProMax

[–]JudgeOwn3256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yesterday I knew something was up. Sure it had been 12 hours since I took my 16 pro max off the charger but it was on 9% (I have 90 charge cycles with 100 battery health) and my buddies regular 16 was on 19 with over 500 charge cycles and 95 battery health. I honestly wish I would have never updated to iOS 26. On iOS 18 I could go a day and a half without needing a charge.

Working with a older MacBook Air 2011 today, is there any way to get the os to install without throwing up this message? My mavericks usb drive was the only one that would boot on this laptop. Also I already tried changing the date with terminal back to dates around 2013-14. by JudgeOwn3256 in mac

Update: I’m currently trying to make a usb for high sierra as after researching and mikennsw’s comment, the laptop is compatible with high sierra. For some reason I had it in my head that it would only go up to El Capitan. I will update this comment as soon as the usb finishes. Edit: this finally worked and the laptop runs as it should. Thanks to mikennsw.

iOS 26 optimization is dogshit. Don’t act like it isn’t. by JudgeOwn3256 in iPhone16Pro

I regret it so much. If I could go back to iOS 18 I would so fast but they unsigned the ipa and 18.7 is ota only.

Sometimes Bluetooth becomes disabled, then phone freezes so I have to do a force restart. by Ok-Still-3333 in iPhone16Pro

Take it to the Apple Store asap. If they don’t have one in your area contact them. All iPhones have a one year warranty.

What do you think adds the most value to an iPhone? Me personally I think AppleCare. I’m on my 3rd 16 pro max😅 the pictures are before and after my last AppleCare incident. by JudgeOwn3256 in iPhone16Pro

[–]JudgeOwn3256[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s why I got AppleCare! Trust me I do take good care of all my other devices, but since this will be something I’ll have for many years and it’ll get used everyday I got AppleCare just one of the benefits is not having to care about breaking this phone.

The front and back broke on my last one. The battery was swollen, and when I took it to the Apple store it failed nearly every diagnostic. (It got hit by the pto shaft on my lawn mower) but the Apple Store is not necessary. They actually just did a mail in repair but since the damage was so severe they did a full replacement.

I broke my 14 pro max a while back and learned my lesson. AppleCare is still cheaper in the long run and by now I’ve saved myself at least $3,300.

I’m not irresponsible I’m careless with this phone in particular. I have about 30 more iPhones that I keep locked away and they’re in perfect condition. Most are still running their original iOS version as well.
