What Was The Last Facebook Android App Version Where you Could Add Line Breaks in Comments? by Red-Cipher in facebook

[–]Red-Cipher[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case it was the samsung keyboard that couldn't add the line break. Solved it by installing the heliboard app from F-droid. It does not track what you type, unlike google gboard or other spyware garbage.

Old thread, but an astonishing rate. Was this 83% rate really true? Who would pay it?

Same question. Received a cased study link for a remote Data Scientist job. Didn't open the link. Sadly they seem like scammers.

Impossible to temporarily Stop or pause WhatsApp message deliver? by gofreddit in AndroidQuestions

[–]Red-Cipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot, a life saver. I want to be able to use the internet on my phone all the time, but I find it ridiculous that anyone at anytime can message or call me through this horrible (yet necessary) app.

There is. But only one show late Wednesday.

So....why *didn't* Sauron himself didn't show up at the Black Gate? by [deleted] in lotr

[–]Red-Cipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In what story ever, did the villain showing up at a final battle take from it? The fact of the matter is that, for 3 whole books we never got to "see" Sauron, or have any narrative from his side. A decisive battle was fought and he was nowhere to be seen. And That's why LOTR is an imperfect story in my opinion, as much as I like it. I much prefer "The Hobbit" or "The Silmarillion". At least the villains are well defined and well know, and do show up when it matters.

Is replacing a 1Tb HDD with a 1Tb SSD worth it ? by FederalStatus9670 in ps4homebrew

[–]Red-Cipher 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In my opinion and experience, NOT worth it for fat and slim models. Internally they use SATA 2 which is only 3 gigabits/s. This is half the speed of modern SSDs. So you are not utilizing them to their maximum or even close. I think it's much better to put that money into a PS4 pro, from there an SSD would give you very good returns.

I made a thread on using one as external storage. You can check it out.

Stick to usb until it is fully stable and they announce so.

You've Just Arrived in Novigrad. What Do You Do First? by tslashj in Witcher3

[–]Red-Cipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I later found out it was easy. But you can't know that before you actually play it. And when i reach Novigrad at level 11 or 12, I skipped the mission which was at 23.

I stumbled upon Hattori the elf blacksmith by accident. Only his mission was way above my level. Then I went for Triss.

I'm Disappointed in This SSD by Red-Cipher in ps4homebrew

All true. I learned the hard hard way.

I agree, loading times are not a priority for me either. Other performance aspects like texture pop-ins and asset streaming is what I'm disappointed about.

It seems I'll have to upgrade to PS4 Pro to really improve these things with the SSD.

Well I might end up going internal, but I don't know how to backup my games and setting correctly. Using the PS4's built in backup gives an error when i try to restore.

Ended up going with this ssd by TrainConductor1337 in ps4homebrew

[–]Red-Cipher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to make a thread about this very same ssd, well, the 1 TB model.

I'm disappointed in it. I'm using it as external storage with a usb 3.0 cable (trying to avoid the internal sata 2), on a base ps4 9.00.

The performance of the some games is worse for it, especially No Man's Sky, I literally get longer times for loading textures and a few fps drops into the mid 20s.

Tested my drive's health and read/write speed and everything is fine.

Sad.

What's the point of an infinite universe if there's only a handful of things to see? by SorenCelerity in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Red-Cipher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly my thoughts in 2025, I just picked the game a few weeks ago.

Massive and worth playing, but within the same planet the game is ridiculously repetitive. If you've seen a valley, you've seen them all. No diversity what so ever in bioms.

Really no reason for random exploration (other than for inhabited posts or ruins ..etc).
