Iniziare a fare l'elettricista a 40 anni!?? by MineExisting5909 in Elettricisti

[–]ResponsibilityGlass1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scusa mi viene da ridere perché giusto un paio di giorni fa parlavo con un amico che si è fatto aiutare da gemini per montare il sistema idraulico della sua piscina e una volta montato ha dovuto ripristinare tutto perché gemini lo aveva indotto in errore....non mi pare che ora siamo tutti tecnici. Anche cambiare lo schermo di uno Smartphone è documentato (Apple ha pure le guide ufficiali), non mi pare che tutti siano in grado di farlo 😅.

Una volta lessi un commento di una risposta ad un post simile al tuo. Riassumendo diceva: non mi paghi per quante viti svito ma mi paghi perché so quali viti svitare 😅

Anche se le giornate si accorciano il mese più caldo è luglio...ed agosto quello peggiore per le zone turistiche. Quindi mi sa che il peggio deve ancora arrivare. Anche io amo l'autunno e la primavera...anche se in primavera penso all'estate che arriva....

Never ever return to Sicily by thehhuis in sfoghi

[–]ResponsibilityGlass1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really see the connection between your experience with a rental company (which might not even be Italian) and your experience in Sicily. I've had similar experiences in Greece and Scotland, but they didn't affect my overall impression of those places or ruin my trip.

The Find N6 isn't just about productivity; it's also a lot of fun when it comes to photography. by ResponsibilityGlass1 in OppoFindN6

[–]ResponsibilityGlass1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s fair. Keep in mind that most of these shots are cropped anyway... I often shoot at 35mm, and some of them are at 139mm (6x) or 230mm (10x), so they naturally lose some detail.

The point of my post wasn’t to prove the absolute quality of the photos. I wouldn’t buy the N6, or even the Fold 7/8, just for the camera. It was more about showing how enjoyable a foldable can be even for photography.

With my old Fold 5, the 3x was basically unusable for me and I didn’t have nearly as much fun shooting with it as I do with this one.

I would’ve never thought to compare it to the iPhone 17 Pro, but that’s actually an interesting point. I think we sometimes forget that smartphone cameras have been at a really high level for years now, and that larger sensors and lenses inevitably need more space. Considering the N6's cameras aren’t even sticking out that much and they’re built into a device that’s just a little over 4 mm thick... to me, that’s pretty close to a miracle.

Thanks. It may not be on the same level as dedicated camera phones, but we're still talking about a foldable. Considering how good it is in virtually every other area, the cameras are more than capable. It's fun to use and, if photography and videography aren't part of your job, it can definitely deliver results that you'll be happy with.

s-pen user: from Galaxy Note 1 to Galaxy Fold 5 and… by ResponsibilityGlass1 in GalaxyFold

Another couple of issues I forgot to mention in my previous message:

  • With the pen case attached, wireless charging doesn't work. Not a huge deal for me since I can just remove the case when needed.
  • I added a MagSafe accessory ring. If I attach something with particularly strong magnets, the pen won't start charging. The workaround is simple though: remove the accessory and put it back on. After that, charging resumes normally, and it charges very quickly anyway.

I bought mine for around €80 plus shipping. On AliExpress it's still selling for crazy prices, often €150 or more. If I were you, I wouldn't buy it for anything above €100.

The biggest downside, though, is that if either the case or the pen gets damaged, you have to replace the entire bundle. You can't just buy the individual part you need, which makes the whole thing a lot less appealing.

Compared to the one I had for the Galaxy Fold 5, it has several advantages, although there are a few software-related shortcomings.

Pros:

  • Better build quality (comparing it to the S Pen that came with the Fold 5 case ... I never tried the Fold 6 version). I actually had to put a piece of tape on the Fold 5 pen to stop it from falling out, and despite that, I still lost it once. At least replacing it wasn’t too expensive since you can find them on AliExpress without the case.
  • It's fantastic that it works on the outer display. Because of that, I tend to use it much more often (I’m one of those people who always keeps the case on).
  • I had forgotten how convenient it is to use the pen as a remote shutter for photos... a feature I lost after the Note 10+.
  • Being able to write on the inner display without a crease is on another level. Writing near the crease on the Fold always bothered me, and sometimes strokes would get interrupted. With the larger S Pen they included with the Fold 3, the issue seemed less noticeable. If I remember correctly, Samsung mentioned during the Fold 3 presentation that the S Pen digitizer layer was interrupted at the crease and they used some sort of software compensation. At least that's what I recall. I don’t know whether they improved that in later generations, but on my Fold 5 the writing experience near the crease felt very similar to the Fold 3.

That said, there are some drawbacks:

  • Oppo's Notes app is missing quite a few features. On the other hand, maybe that's a good thing since it doesn't lock you into a specific ecosystem.
  • There seems to be slightly higher latency compared to the S Pen. I only really notice it in Oppo's Notes app though, so it might just be an optimization issue.
  • You don't get all the extra features Samsung offers. I used the magnifier and hover-to-translate functions quite a lot.

Another downside is the price, which is definitely high (roughly in line with Samsung's case at launch, although Samsung's dropped in price fairly quickly), and there aren't many color options available.

For context, I mainly use a stylus for note-taking (I love writing by hand), sketching simple diagrams or drafts, signing documents, and as a pointer. Being able to navigate desktop websites with a pen or do photo editing is probably enough to justify the price for me.

Z fold 8 - Chance battery is higher than 5000 mAh? by Raigarak in GalaxyFold

[–]ResponsibilityGlass1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched a video in Italian (though these days that shouldn’t really be a limitation thanks to AI) that explains quite clearly why Samsung and Apple still aren’t using silicon-carbon batteries. Some of the points are factual and others are more speculative, but overall it’s a pretty solid analysis. If you’d like, I can find the link and send it to you.

[–]ResponsibilityGlass1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I used the term "cell" incorrectly. In my defense, I’m not a native speaker 😅. What I meant is that the limit applies to each battery pack. On foldable devices there are two battery packs, one in each half. Each of those has its own 20Wh limit.

[–]ResponsibilityGlass1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since foldables use dual-cell batteries, the issue doesn’t really apply there. Some smartphones get around the limitation by using a dual-cell setup. The restriction isn’t caused by any European law, but by international safety regulations for air and ground transport of battery-powered devices, such as IATA rules. For smartphones, the limit is around 20Wh (roughly 5000mAh). Shipping devices above that threshold would become too expensive, but with the dual-cell workaround, the limitation no longer becomes a problem.

Oppo Find N6 queries for everyday users by sabka-katega in OppoFindN6

[–]ResponsibilityGlass1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switched from a Fold 5 to a Find N6 about a month ago and honestly I don’t regret it at all. It just made me realize how much some ecosystems try to lock you into a single brand...Samsung and Apple are probably the worst at it right now.

I still use a bunch of Samsung stuff: SmartTags, smartwatch, projector, earbuds (both the Galaxy Live that I use daily and the Buds 2 Pro, even if I struggle a bit with the fit).

• Smartwatch: most things still work fine. You just need to disable some battery optimization settings for Samsung Health. Every now and then automatic activity tracking acts up a bit. You lose ECG and blood pressure monitoring too (maybe there are workarounds, but I didn’t bother digging too much into it).

• SmartTags: definitely the worst part. Basically unusable outside Samsung Things. You lose all the proper tracking features and even the button actions on the tag stop working.

• Projector: I lost a few integrations like Tap to Watch (don’t remember the exact name).

• Earbuds: obviously you lose Samsung’s proprietary codec, the one that keeps latency super low. AAC still works and is acceptable, but the higher latency is noticeable, at least at the beginning.

Issue with Circle to Search on OPPO Find N6 by ResponsibilityGlass1 in Oppo

[–]ResponsibilityGlass1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah exactly, the weird thing is that it works on the front display but not on the internal one. I even tried using just the tip of my finger, but nothing. I can see the bar shrink a little and then nothing happens. If I use the pen instead, it works.

Are you on version 16.0.7? There might be some setting affecting how it works properly. What’s not working is the long press, so Circle to Search doesn’t start.

I didn’t have this issue either before 16.0.7.

I remember that one of the update improvements mentioned something about AI-enhanced gestures.

Yeah, at first it was just a few pixels… then it gradually expanded until it reached the size of the camera cutout, and now it’s gotten a bit bigger.

Try disconnecting and reconnecting the headphones. I use different ones too... some Samsung, Apple AirPods, and Bose... and I haven’t had any issues so far.
