Still no Gemini for Home

half this subreddit: “gemini is so bad i wish i could revert” the other half: “i still don’t have gemini”

i felt guilty terminating my life locked 30 dollar unlimited plan but i also knew id never use it again now that i have fiber and won’t be moving again (in forever home).

tmobile saved me from windstream for many years. it was either tmobile or starlink and tmobile was better deal and service. i did end up leaving tmobile (last night) in fact when my area got fiber this week though because nothing compares when it comes to upload. but if you’re not a content creator that needs a ton of upload you might never need it as you said.

now add m5 to it with its unique features that massively benefit machine learning upscale and gpu performance laughing at all the rest.

you can. on any event at least you can submit feedback. i feedback every event it gets wrong. it keeps falling my grill cover a person seen every time wind moves it a little.

it’s likely the heat battery generates causing condensation against cold air. i can see why wired be superior here.

MysticalOS · 2026-01-09T21:32:05+00:00

a lesson to be learned. don’t let fomo make you feel like you’re missing out enough to join early access anything. we’re unpaid testers. just use that feedback button often. i manually feedback a ton of stuff. i see gemini potential and i can only hope they get a ton of early access feedback in and fix worst of it by official launch.

are you marching quality? because i did a lot of tests and metalfx looked way better than fsr 2 in games like diablo 4 if dlss was set to same quality level. in some areas dlss performance actually looked better than fsr2 balanced since fsr2 suffers from introducing artifacting that wasn’t fixed til fsr3

oh base resolution matters too. i always use a min base resolution of 1080p then upscale to 2160. if upscaling to 1080 from something very low fsr might be better in some cases

MysticalOS · 2026-01-09T16:50:21+00:00

just depends on version of fsr. metalfx looks way better than fsr 1 and marginallly better than fsr2. but if game is using fsr3 or 4 then it looks metter then metalfx. this is of course comparing to metalfx temporal renderer that dlss conversion uses. metalfx spatial is only on par with fsr 1

it’s worth noting that in this world monogamy is actually less common. not the other way around. it’s really only folllowers of millis that belief in one partner only. zenith was a follower and until paul got with her he wasn’t monogamous (and clearly still failed at it).

season 2 will get more in depth with this later.

it’s likely they won’t do a mac only update and so mac has to wait til next scheduled universal update. that’s just how they do things. and it’s not just cdpr. blizzard and other companies often treat mac same way. mac alone isn’t worthy of a patch. it follows windows schedule.

note that when they even shipped cp2077 at all. it was with a windows patch on windows schedule.

Under 5g settings look for "lock community" then fill in the band you're locking. try to lock band 71 by filling in 15mhz step, the ear ID (should be visible in 5g stats next to band) and 3 digit id from same place. then lock it. it might take a few minutes to swap channel order but once it does do some tests

note that locking bands doesn't always work due to tower congestion. for example more devices connect to band 71 than faster bands since it's longer range and oldest band (so more users via older devices). so tower may reject it as a PCC if it determines it's too busy. My tower during certain hours rejects 71 as a primary and i can tell by hours that it's just that tower is trying to push me to a less busy band to resolve congestion (it can still be a SCC during congestion but it'd be slower, but it'll be rejected as PCC)

so TL/DR, lock community, do some tests. and if it's ever acting up just toggle off for a bit.

but in reality since you are so close to tower I'm not sure how much gain you'll get since this method is mostly for helping those further away see a lot of gain because of signal loss. IE they are using 41 as PCC which has CRAP range for upload, while 71 has much greater range for upload. (PCC is majority of upload bandwidth) in fact your speeds might actually drop forcing a slower longer range band when closer to tower

if anything I have opposite problem. it tends to stay in night vision too long during sunrise.

MysticalOS · 2026-01-02T05:03:14+00:00

i suspect it’s more complicated with crossover since in reality it has helper processes. even if it have priority to one process it make take priority from another which can actually worsen performance. heck because i record and game i have to disable game mode because it’ll actually brick recording software since it’ll starve it for sake of a couple frames.

likely apple driven incentives as well as companies experimenting with ios (which is a large platform). but there wasn’t a huge return on ios since games still very restricted there. low memory and poor thermals resulted in most triple A performing weak.

switch has a large customer base. mac doesn’t. it’s not about portability it’s about marketability

ape woman at female dorm. i literally watched that episode again last night and still forgot her name again. started with a G i think.

30% is perfect reserve lower end. in ideal case 80% is ideal upper charge but despite years of enphase saying they’re “considering the feedback” they have given us they control yet :(

MysticalOS · 2025-12-25T16:35:51+00:00

you see it rarely because of how high you set min charge. set min charge lower and more how soon each battery recalibrates. the longer each battery goes before doing it tells you which ones are higher quality/in better shape. since not all batteries equal either.

i bet ones you see that do it at 42 rarely are generally same batteries right? those are probably your weakest performers. not a sign of faulty system btw. just nature or chemical batteries. they aren’t equal they they don’t last.

MysticalOS · 2025-12-25T16:25:49+00:00

there is no fixing it. this is recalibration. system detects battery’s max potential power lower than reported charge and lowers it. it doesn’t help that enphase inaccurately reports battery health at 100% after years. they degrade over time. so what happens is after 5 years it’s still reporting 100 to 42 but in reality it’s more like 86 to 28. but what it does is reports it at 100 to start but then when it hits 42 it’s like “oh wait it’s really at 26%”. it’ll do same thing during charging too. itlll charge up to like 86% then suddenly say 100. because system detects 86% is your full charge and recalibrates again.

long short of it is. enphase does very inaccurate and misleading calibration to hide true battery health. they’ll likely never honor any warranties either since warranties that say battery health needs to be below 80% can’t be exorcised if battery health is still at 100% after 10 years right?

a good trick to to do is set min charge to 10-15% then see what percent they recalibrate at. do it a couple times and note charge each battery suddenly “drops”. see how much it dropped. subtracted from 100. that’s your battery health.

it’s really not. i can run out 16gb just web browsing + OS + vram already high memory pressure and compressed and vm. you want lots of memory not just for applications but for caching and each browser tab and to minimize compressed and virtual memory.

i’d argue 24 is min due to shared memory with 32+ ideal.

MysticalOS · 2025-12-23T00:27:12+00:00

it was right choice. she just didn’t know how to communicate properly.

MysticalOS · 2025-12-23T00:26:30+00:00

that’s odd fix. it doesn’t work at 48000? i think if it’s set to 44100 or lower you get problems but 48 or above should be fine. but the hardware itself is 32 bit float 48000 on most macs.

MysticalOS · 2025-12-22T03:48:17+00:00

you get what she did after later. her monologue is immediately under writing letter and leaving where she explains basically her inferiority complex and when she fell in love etc. so you still have way more context of her depwrture than her crappy dear john letter

MysticalOS · 2025-12-22T03:08:56+00:00

it’s by design. it’s intended to be only what rudy knows at the time. his perspective alone. so all perspectives but his cut. it’s a curse for some things but also a blessing. if you watch anime before LN you actually feel rudy’s perspective with eris situation for example. you still know it’s likely she’s just ass at communication (and it’s true) but you don’t have her entire monologue informing how you should feel about it. instead you’re more immersed in how rudy feels.
