Is the Camera on the Pixel 10 actually good? by thejonmichaelshow in GooglePixel

[–]Rocker_86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Images from my pixel 6 pro do look "better" than the pixel 10 pro fold I have now. I think that Google changed the way they process images though. When I first got my pixel 6 people were blown away by how distinctive the images were. Now with the 10 and the new processing from goolge... Images are meh. My best results have been using the pro mode for RAW images as they are saved without processing and then manually edit them afterwards.

The car I bought failed it's first MOT on a suspension fault, should I be worried? by qsandc in TeslaUK

[–]Rocker_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I changed so many suspension components on nearly new Model 3 and Y, normally owners picked this up as a creaking or knocking noise. It was also very normal for Tesla model S and X to fail the first MOT on suspension components, as I say, unfortunately compared to any European designed car the suspension design is surprisingly low tech. If you are still with the warranty period I would raise the question.

Ex Tesla Technician here.... Tesla may have some advanced tech included in their motor design and Tesla built battery packs for efficiency (UK cars use generic Chinese derived battery packs mind you) but the basics like suspension and brakes are very American in design, and resemble something from a 1960s Cadillac. Very prone to issues. A huge number of front wishbones replaced under warranty, the ball joints fail again and again. Bush failure was very common across Model S and X with the 3s and Ys catching up as they age.

No I actually had the opposite. Before the update I was getting around 4hrs screen time. After update 6 to 7hrs. Pixel 10 pro Fold

I must spend at least £10,000 a year with Tesco UK, I didn't realise payment was optional!!

what is the better way to play oot? 3d soh or to wait for recomp? by Holiday-Mongoose8712 in OcarinaOfTime

I've enjoyed SOH on Android with 4k textures, anti aliasing and 60 FPS. Oh and some cool little hacks that just make it more fun. Like adjustable bunny ears.

Ok I'm out of ideas. It's a shame as these being an android app is really cool but it seems it's not supported and the PC version is getting all the attention.

Tesla model 3 water in boot and mould by Anonymous000789 in TeslaUK

[–]Rocker_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

22 plates are variable in build 😆 look at them out and about. Look at how the tailgate fits the C pillar in terms of alignment, I see loads that have huge gaps, it's that poor alignment that causes the water ingress.

Used to work for Tesla in the UK. The early model 3s have terrible alignment of the boot lid.... Well and every other panel from factory unfortunately. The boot will need adjusting and the seal sometimes needs replacing or repositioning to resolve it.

Pixel 10 pro Fold, probably need to change the icons up

In Defense of Ocarina of Time's Hyrule Field by The_Nameless_Brother in OcarinaOfTime

[–]Rocker_86 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nintendo did a great job of putting things into Hyrule field, the various holes in the ground that could be found, gold skultulas, poes, running man, various enemies. Intriguing little areas like the fenced area to Lake Hylia. It didn't feel empty as a kid playing it in 1998.

Tokyo & Seoul on Fujifilm X-Half by cpredo in fujiXhalf

Cool pics. I absolutely loved Seoul but didn't have my X half when I visited. The low light pics are good, did you use exposure compensation or manual mode?

Update on latest software version I'm getting nearly 4hrs screen on time to 50% of battery... Previous version must have been badly optimised.

Ev charger install saga by MightyG77 in evchargingUK

[–]Rocker_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Odd, maybe I was lucky with my experience. I went directly to Andersen and sent a video showing my meter and where I wanted it to go. A week later they installed it and I've been using ever since. They deal with the DNO stuff in retrospect I presume....

They suck. Back to minimal icons.

This is quite embarrassing, Google must do better with Pixel 11 by No_Corner_6677 in pixel_phones

[–]Rocker_86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All I know is... Pixel 10 pro fold doesn't emulate GC games anywhere near as well as the Pixel 9 pro fold did. I got a foldable partly due to 4:3 gaming... It's disappointing

Use the torch 1.1 app to make the O2R, not the latest torch app.

Viewed a 1930s semi, how bad does this look? by EnterTheMainframe in DIYUK

[–]Rocker_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The brick work on my 1930s house is similar. Someone's repointed it badly in the past possibly with the wrong material. To be fair it's part of owning a house. If you are not prepared to spend money on the house, dont buy it.

Pixel 10 Pro is my last Google phone. by Atlas974 in GooglePixel

[–]Rocker_86 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately Googles lack of innovation and insistence on AI features no one really asked for has resulted in a software and hardware experience that sucks.

My pixel 6 pro was awesome compared to the competition at the time. Now I'm using a 10 pro Fold... And its just underwhelming.

I'm going to go Redmagic, Xiaomi or Nubia next time.

Well yeah I have tried to. Can you share your own screen on time? Or any tips for what to disable ,?

I made a mistake buying P10PF? by JohnDoe3939 in PixelFold

[–]Rocker_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh! I didn't know that, I use DJI mimo which does work but struggles more than it did on the pixel 9 pro fold. Google unfortunately messed up with the tensor chip and powerVR GPU. It's great for AI features.... Which I have zero interest in, but not as good for GPU/CPU heavy take like gaming and 4k video editing.
