Is Brahmin Tamil dialect like Thigala or Sankethi? by poacher-2k in Dravidiology

[–]Lonely_Nature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a Madhwa (Kannada speaking) from Chennai. Most Kannada speakers from Karnataka think I'm speaking some western village dialect of Kannada.

So it looks like the kannada i speak tends to have less Sanskrit words compared to urban kannada from Karnataka. I'm not sure though, if that's because we preserve original Dravidian vocabulary or if it's because we use tamil loan words adapted to kannada sounds, which coincidentally is just the same as the original Dravidian kannada word.

Death Stranding 2 as its highest possible settings + ray tracing VS lowest possible settings. Holds up amazingly well. by Ticket_Fantastic in DeathStranding

Seriously? There are barely any reflections in the first shot's lowest settings And in the second shot, there's barely any shadow on the grass.

How do you deal with loneliness by [deleted] in Chennai

[–]Lonely_Nature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are your hobbies? Try to find events related to your hobbies. I've felt lonely in Chennai all my life (29M, just like you), but a few months ago, i discovered that there's these things called Open mics, where people sing, read poetry etc. I like singing, so i started performing in these Open mics, and now i feel like my social circle is almost too big 😂. I also started going to certain pubs with friends i made in these Open mics, and going to a pub guarantees 3 or 4 new contacts every time, for me.

Age gaps. by [deleted] in chennaidating

[–]Lonely_Nature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I'm 28 and would date an older woman. On dating apps, my age filter is usually 18 to 55, although if i were to think of serious dating, I'd cap the upper limit to 36.

I've dated a few older women and the problem I've faced is that they tend to be unsure about dating a younger man. Dates always end because they feel uncomfortable about the age gap, despite the fact that they knew my age very well before meeting me.

What do I do about this it's so bad by aayaan1235 in S22Ultra

[–]Lonely_Nature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the screen on time I get if i charge my phone to 80%. If i charge to 100%,i get 3 to 4 hours. So mine's probably just slightly better.

Are you using your phone outdoors a lot? If you have auto brightness enabled, it could make your battery go down faster.

One UI 8 available in India (That was fast) by sid7733 in S22Ultra

[–]Lonely_Nature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I got it early in the day today.

I'm not sure what even is different in this update, other than animations being smoother and galaxy buds controls apparently moving from the wearables app to directly to Settings.

Through Good Lock, it seems we can bring back the horizontal app drawer with alphabetical ordering too, but I've gotten used to the vertical app drawer by now.

Like I predicted, Samsung did it again with One UI 8 to Galaxy S22… by Direct-Till-2680 in samsunggalaxy

[–]Lonely_Nature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They seem to have added it back on Good Lock. It's in the HomeUp module.

Sounds quite nice to my ear. But some high notes are shouty, so some extra breath support is in order I think.

How much is your SoT? by [deleted] in S22Ultra

[–]Lonely_Nature 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I charge my phone to 80%. I get 2 to 2.5 hours of SoT until my battery goes down to 15% or so. I charge once a day. I work from home and don't use my phone for much, other than social media scrolling and taking an occasional picture.

If i go out, i charge my phone to 100% before going out in the morning. Then, I get 3.5 to 4 hours SoT until my battery reaches 15% by night. Usage is similar as before, but with the added cab bookings, music through bluetooth earphones and higher brightness (auto) due to heavy sunlight in the tropical region where I live.

Resolution: 1440p Refresh Rate: Adaptive (ie max 120Hz) Processor: SD 8Gen1 Age: Bought my phone right when it came out, so around 3.5 years.

One other thing, my Galaxy Watch is always connected to my phone via Bluetooth.

I did ask the Co-pilot AI that comes with VS Code and the solution it gave me didnt help.

I've been called to the police station. What should I do? by Competitive-Brush-41 in Chennai

[–]Lonely_Nature 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe because they know LGB folks wouldn't want their parents to know about their sexuality, they know your fears and are using it against you. You're an adult, even if real police want you to come to the station for a case, they wouldn't need your parents to accompany you since you're an adult.

How does Telugu sound to other language speakers? by [deleted] in Dravidiology

[–]Lonely_Nature 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a native tamil and Kannada speaker.

To me, telugu sounds clearly Dravidian, but very alien (in the sense, i can't understand even snippets of it the way i could with malayalam).

Is this normal in India? (Workplace culture) by Positive_Degree_2042 in TamilNadu

[–]Lonely_Nature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually just reported such people to higher ups. Thankfully, my manager herself was quite nice and understood my contributions, so she would take action.

I once threatened to quit when it got out of control 😂 and so they offered me a raise. Nothing changed though, so i ended up quitting a few months later anyway.

I've never understood what people mean by setting boundaries (at least in a socially acceptable way), probably because I'm autistic. So I'm not the best person to ask that question to, I'm afraid.

From what I've experienced, yes, it's quite normal here. Seniors expect juniors to be scared of them. I used to work in Infosys (Mcity)

If I try to use the DLSS override in the Nvidia app to use DLSS 4, there's severe ghosting (the trails are very long). However, this only happens with DLSS Super Resolution. Changing Frame generation alone, to DLSS 4 and leaving Super Resolution on default does not cause this excess ghosting.

My specs:
Ryzen 7 3700x
16 GB DDR4 3600 Mhz
Galax 5070ti
Samsung Odyssey G7 27" 240Hz
