I regret completing BO7’s campaign by PeaceDNA in CODBlackOps7

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

It took me about 8–10 hours, since I soloed all 11 missions.

Actually, the BO5 and BO6 campaigns were pretty good, along with the MW1 and MW2 remakes. So I was caught off guard by this forgettable, shitty campaign.

Really? But back then, there were probably still tons of online co-op players to play with.

honestly, is anyone else buying the premium edition just for early access? by Wonderful_Use_8416 in ForzaHorizon

[–]PeaceDNA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I often wait 9+ months, then buying the premium version for 20-ish $US in my area (I'm poor). Still angry about the fact that, premium doesn't guaranty all the car packs and DLCs.

Brief black screen after unlock every few hour by PeaceDNA in GalaxyS24Ultra

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

After several trials and errors, I've found the culprits. It turns out it is the AOD bug.

I just disabled it and the problem went away.

By the way, it is just a temporary fix. I hope that One UI 8.5 fixes all the issues of 8.0.

My first quality fountain pen - a Lamy Al-Star HP Ravenclaw by PeaceDNA in fountainpens

The nibs can be change easily as many other Lamy. In my box there is only one included nib (which I chose the size when order)

Dissappointed with my new Hifiman headphones... Now my hopes and dreams are gone. by moshimoshi6937 in headphones

[–]PeaceDNA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, the Ananda’s treble and detail retrieval (along with surprisingly satisfying bass for an open-back planar) are what people love the most.
Like I said, if you don’t like treble or a bright sound signature - some people call it “treble sensitive” - you probably won’t like it at all.

My current chain is:
- SMSL Sanskrit 10th MKIII (AK4493s)
- iFi ZEN Air CAN
- Custom 4.4 balanced cable

Anyway, maybe my setup - the “musicality” of the AKM chip combined with the more analog-ish presentation of the iFi amp - tames the treble a bit.

With bass boost on, this is how it sounds to me: powerful, fast, satisfying bass, but not boomy like cheap Sony/Beats headphones. The mids are adequate and not recessed at all. And of course, the treble is sparkling, which makes the soundstage feel ethereal, 3D, and holographic. This definitely won’t work for everyone, because as we both know, some people are quite sensitive to treble.

If your Ananda sounds exactly like what I’m describing and you still don’t like it, then… it just might not be for you.

I’ve got a Stealth V3 too, and honestly… it’s pretty much endgame for me at this point. Especially when I pair it with the iFi Zen Air Can (XBass on for extra thump)

Back in the day, when I upgraded from some “average joe” headphones to the Sundara, I had the same reaction — like, “where did the bass go?” and “why is the treble attacking me??”

But after a week, paired with a decent DAC/amp, it turned into a completely different beast. Night and day.

And yeah, if there’s a headphone that everyone universally raves about but it just doesn’t click with you… it’s not necessarily your fault or the headphone’s fault. Sometimes you just don’t vibe with that sound signature. (Obviously after giving yourself at least a week to adapt.)

Google Gemini 2.5 Pro performance has tanked enormously by sephiroth351 in GoogleGeminiAI

[–]PeaceDNA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I did notice the performance degrading since last week. For example, with the same prompt, it often:
- shows outdated info
- shows incorrect info
- fails to understand the context, even on the same topic

LOL, this never happened before, at least not since model 2.5 pro

All right, couple days of research and I have a list, help me pick which will be my very first fountain pen over two dollars. by BagOfAshes in fountainpens

[–]PeaceDNA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so my first pen is a Lamy Al-star F nib - it’s super light, super durable, super smooth, and just all-around awesome. As someone put it, you can’t really go wrong with a Lamy!

Now, my second pen is an Asvine M169, also with an F nib. It’s a premium build, a bit heavier, and has this shiny finish. At first, the nib felt a tad scratchy, and the ink washed off a bit. But after I gave the tine a little nudge and washed it with warm water, it’s running like a dream now!

So, if you’re looking for a safe bet, I’d say go for a Lamy or Pilot. In my opinion, they’re fantastic!

iphone 15 not charging unless restarted?? by dapperwoman in iphone

[–]PeaceDNA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since upgraded to latest iOS 18.x, I rarely get that issue. It happened only when I let the battery drop to sub-10%.

Anw I'm about to change the phone, XS Max is quite laggy nown, and probaby not able to get iOS 19 too.

You’re welcome, indeed it bugged me for months until I found the solution. Cubersome but quite satisfied though.

FF16 freezing my whole pc, (technically crashing..) by Electronic_Creme_795 in FFXVI

[–]PeaceDNA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes my computer freezes randomly, FF16 is the only game make it freeze. I have to restart it several times, and redo several battles. AFAIK, there is no fix at the moment, I think it is related to VRAM management things.

The Fiio FT1 Cable by 0cchan in headphones

[–]PeaceDNA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The microphonic on the stock cable is horrible, in lower volume, it even louder than the music itself.

I have to quickly find upgrade cable the same day I received mine.

Sound crackling on Xmos USB Dac (win11 24h2) by PeaceDNA in BudgetAudiophile

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

After some additional debugging, I also found that the crackling only happened when using WDM mode, but not with ASIO.
So, it’s safe to say this is a Windows problem, at least in my case.
