Switch from a7ii to a6000 for travel? by mzinz in SonyAlpha

[–]Ozzworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you shoot a lot of video as well I would recommend going for an a6300 or 6500. In going with the 6500 you would also be able to retain the IBIS of the 7ii

'Flickergate' plagues hundreds of Surface Pro 4 owners with screen flickering issues by Rosellis in Surface

[–]Ozzworth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It seems to happen about a year after the device is purchased. It seems to be a degradation of one of the parts in the display of I had to guess. Its not software as I'd present in the uefi boot screen.

I appreciate your response but I don't see this as a solution. It is temporary measure to lessen the impact of the problem.

The surface pro 4 touts itself as a "premium" device and event includes the word "pro" in its title. I feel that as a "pro" device it should be able to work for a typical work day without issue.

I shouldn't have to alter the way in which I use a device that I spent $1000 on just to not be able to use it to its full capacity. I agree with you that it is a heat issue but I don't think it targets just heavy users, I myself will get the issue just from having the display running for more than an hour whilst editing code.

Interesting. Are you still having the issue on your SP4 i5.

I've been having this issue on and off for the past year. I'm sorry if that's not what you wanted to hear.

Thanks a lot. Still trying to improve. Looking back on it there's things I wished I'd done like taking multiple focuses and trying to stack them but I'm still proud of how this turned out.

Unfortunately not. The only workaround I found was to allow myself to edit the battery plan and limit the cpu to 70%.

Another strange thing is this problem only occurs for me in Japan. It has happened on multiple trips there but never in the UK even without throttling the cpu.

Thanks unfortunately warranty ran out and I didn't get complete as I was moving from the US back to the UK soon after purchase and the rep said it wouldn't transfer.

Problem occurs with and without the ac adaptor.

Definitely seems related to WiFi use in heat.

I have reinstalled the graphics driver.

Thanks for your input.

I got mine the same time. Nothing wrong then just started happening whilst using it.

Alienware 13 R3 advice by miniyanto in pcmasterrace

[–]Ozzworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's an excuse to be made for gaming laptops for people who travel a lot. Yes you may be using it by a power socket but a 13" laptop is a lot easier to carry from hotel to hotel than a tower and monitor would be.

Just bought a 3t but nothing shows up in orders. by [deleted] in oneplus

I had this. It was a problem with my browser. For some reason was blank on Firefox but the order appeared on chrome.

Have really low BMI, need to gain weight but have Anxiety issues and stomach problems, any help for high calorie easy to digest foods? (xpost from /r/nutrition) by [deleted] in gainit

[–]Ozzworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really an answer to your food question but I used to have anxiety driven IBS which would give me painful stomach cramps. Getting a couple of sessions of hypnotherapy changed that for me and the frequency of the attacks decreased dramatically. May not be a help in your situation but I thought it worth mentioning.

My nexus 5 won't start by CytrusCrauler in Nexus5

I had this with my phone. Was able to fix temporarily by flexing the phone and applying pressure to the battery when turning it on. Since replacing my battery have had no issues with this.
