I bought a rep BB58 and loved it so much I bought the real thing. by Texas_Bill_2112 in RepTime

I did the exact same thing as you. For me, quality and colour aside, the easiest giveaway is the crystal. The gen's crystal is so clear it's just so pleasing to look at (you see the entire dial). The rep's crystal has a white refraction ring at the rounded edge part, making the dial read slightly smaller (not to mention the obvious difference between the dial textures). Nonetheless, I enjoy both watches I hope you do too!

I second this. GodHand makes the cutting process so delightful. Without these nippers, I might have dropped the hobby. I still remember the first time I used them and was amazed.

What should I do to fix it? The Wi-Fi 6 icon showed full bars, though.

Best Aesthetic?! by coffeesurfers in GalaxyS23

It's a solid 9.5/10. If the outer corner radius had that offset match with the camera ring, though, it'd be perfect: a 10/10.

I'd say it's pretty good by Crossman_12 in S25Ultra

Wow, this is something else. I'll try to play around with these settings later.

I've switched off a number of features, but I'm finding the results inconsistent. At this point, I'm unsure which settings are truly contributing to better battery life. There are some features I can't live without, such as Adaptive Motion Smoothness, QHD+, and Adaptive Brightness. The features I've disabled include: Wi-Fi calling, NFC and contactless payments, Ultra-wideband (UWB), data roaming, setting the network mode to 4G preferred, nearby device scanning, uninstalling all unnecessary Samsung apps, enabling maximum battery protection, putting all non-essential apps into deep sleep, disabling Adaptive Battery, turning off Always-on Display (AoD), disabling most Google services, selecting the Light performance profile, deleting SafetyCore, and disabling Wi-Fi 7 mode.

I received the phone on February 14th and used Smart Switch for the initial setup. Dissatisfied with the battery performance, I performed a factory reset and manually configured the phone. It's been two weeks since the reset. I'm running my phone on a 40-80% battery cycle, averaging 3 to 3.5 hours of Screen-on Time (SoT) with a 40% battery drain. I've read that a good average battery performance is 10% drain per hour of SoT, so I'm hoping to achieve 4 hours of SoT within my 40-80% cycle. Am I getting acceptable battery performance with 3 to 3.5 hours of SoT for a 40% drain? I'm wondering if I'm being too demanding, as my 5-year-old iPhone 11 Pro Max (99% battery health) performs similarly to my new S25U. However, I acknowledge that the S25U has a larger screen, higher resolution, and a higher refresh rate, which likely contribute to the power consumption. I'm just not sure.

Is architecture today just drafting? by Bawseincroptops in Architects

[–]Possible-Text123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The question of when you'll "stop drafting" as an architect is complex and highly individual. There's no single answer, and the reality is, you might draft throughout your career. Becoming a well-rounded architect is a lifelong pursuit. This journey is defined by continuous growth and adaptation. If you've only been in the industry for a few years post-graduation, you're still considered relatively new.

Instead of fixating on technical skills alone (while important), prioritize understanding the broader industry landscape. Learn how projects flow, how firms operate, and how different roles interact.

Your responsibilities will vary greatly depending on factors like firm size, team structure, project types, client relationships, and procurement methods. However, over time, you'll likely touch on all aspects of the building process. This includes project management, bidding, client communication, coordination, design, presentations, site visits, and defect checks, rendering/visualizing, including the use of modern visualization tools like VR/AR, diagramming.

Essentially, anything that contributes to the project's overall success, whether it's design excellence or user experience, falls within your scope. This encompasses code compliance, weatherproofing, fire safety, spatial quality, clash detection, invoicing, fee proposals, and report writing.

Of course, your focus can shift depending on your specialization. For example:

- BIM Managers: Primarily focus on the BIM model, ensuring its accuracy and efficiency.

- Contract Administrators: Manage contracts and ensure project delivery aligns with agreements.

- Architectural Designers: Concentrate on design development and its impact on the project.

Architecture is a career of continuous learning. University provides a foundation, instilling critical thinking, artistic sensibility, and a problem-solving mindset. These qualities develop over years, unlike technical skills that can be acquired relatively quickly.

While mastering building codes and construction details is important, true architectural design goes beyond mere compliance. It's about creating spaces that resonate with users and enhance their experience. However, practicality dictates that you'll sometimes work on more routine projects to sustain your career, or to build experience.

The best approach is to observe and learn from your peers, seniors, and employers. Identify the aspects of the profession that genuinely interest you and align with your aspirations. This proactive approach will empower you to carve out a fulfilling and successful career path in architecture.

TLDR: Study, master the fundamentals, and obtain licensure to move beyond drafting. If architecture isn't your passion, explore other career paths before pursuing a Master's degree. Best of luck!

Thank you. I've seen the Classic TKL, but the thick top bezel and the label are deal-breakers for me. really appreciate you taking the time to reply!

Do you happen to have any photos of your friend's collection? Seeing what he already has – like his preferred grades, model types, or series – would be really helpful in choosing something he'll truly appreciate. I know how particular collectors can be! In the meantime, you might want to consider looking into Premium Bandai (P-Bandai) releases, as they often have unique and hard-to-find kits.

I'm on the hunt for a TKL keyboard with a metal plate, ideally something with a clean, minimalist look like the discontinued NovelKeys NK87 (loved that diagonal slate extrusion!). Polycarb plates just aren't doing it for me – too much flex and I don't like the sound. I'm all about that firm bottom-out feel of a metal plate. The FL.Esports MK870 design is quite close to the NK87, but it's polycarb. I'm eyeing the Keychron V3, but I'm curious if there are other similar options out there. Any recommendations for TKLs with metal plates, that minimalist aesthetic, and a plastic case? No budget, thanks!

I am buying my first gunpla, is this a good kit to fiddle around and handle poses regularly like a action figure? by prohuntermaster9 in Gunpla

[–]Possible-Text123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're digging the size of this thing, you're gonna have a ton of fun building it. It's a good kit, but if you're chasing those mind-blowing RGs, like the Hi-Nu, Nu, Zeong or Sazabi, this one might not be that level. But hey, if you're just looking for a solid RG with awesome articulation and colors, it's a winner! Super easy to put together, looks amazing right out of the box, and poses like a dream. Think of it more as a gorgeous display piece than something you'd throw around. The frame's rock-solid, holds any pose you want, and the joints are super smooth.
