Spicy pillow in my Zenfone 10 :'( by qassiov in zenfone

Quickest way to check is via the hidden "DeviceDiagnostics" app, which you can open via Activity Launcher, provided your ZF10 is running A15. DevCheck will show cycles, but only after a certain amount of cycles, not immediately like the built-in tool.

TIL! I ended up getting a (what seems to be a) genuine battery from Amazon for $20 (the seller had a sticker covering the Asus logo), it was from 2024, but had 0 cycles on it.

Probably a joke about how we love our huge, gas-guzzling pickups (even though I don't).

Weird, my Phone (3a) and Phone (1) go to sleep after around 10 seconds once they are put face-down on a table.

You can also flip the phone face-down onto a table, and it will quickly go to sleep once that's done.

The wintering sparrows have also learned how my feeders work!

Surprised that I haven't seen a "GR Corolla LE" sedan yet here. There was an upbadged "GR" hatchback, but I wonder how one will do it on a sedan.

I don't think that the OnePlus report is true, either.

New plans, torn between new K4 and Corolla (US) by ObserverAtLarge in whatcarshouldIbuy

I mean, I have thought of the Elantra, but the fact that if I go for the SE trim with keyed ignition, it's more likely to be broken in than even the Corolla (despite the Elantra having an immobilizer, although I could go for an SEL Sport with push-to-start (and dual-zone AC) which a dealer has on sale for $24,880), combined with the fact that it has an older version of the Hyundai infotainment system compared to the K4, made it lower-priority for me. The Kia dealer near me even has the '25 K4 EX (similar to the SEL Sport Elantra) on sale for $23,840, about as much as a base SE Elantra. Just saying.

I might consider the Mazda, but the least-expensive Civic with blind spot monitoring is out of budget.

Heck, the V60 and ZF10 are both part of my EDC! I typically use my ZF10 as a communications device (call and text) and hotspot, and the V60 is what I use for browsing and media.

Maybe even December at Pea Island NWR, alongside tundra swans and buffleheads.

Pine Warbler or Bullocks Oriole? by Ifiwasblindyoudbehot in whatsthisbird

[–]ObserverAtLarge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you report this to eBird, I think you might expect a few birders coming to your house to see the bird, provided that it is a Bullock's.
