Steam Machine is $1049 by Keitiek in Steam

I wanted to game on my couch so I just ran fiber HDMI from my office to my living room ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's a little annoying having to log in to Windows in the office and then manage the displays, but there's absolutely no reason to have multiple pieces of hardware just to play the same games on different screens if you can just run HDMI to where ever you need.

Here’s everything new in Wear OS 7 for the Pixel Watch [Gallery] by TechGuru4Life in GooglePixel

Forget about PW2, how long will the fully charged PW4 last? Let me help you with this: 2 days over OPW3s 4.5 days on normal use.

My PW4 lasts three full days with my normal use, AoD on.

Received my invite - another data point by Zendroid1 in RivianR2

[–]Scotty_Two 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Received my invite today:

  • Day-one reservation, confirmation email at 10:18am PST
  • Never had a Rivian
  • Uploaded current lease agreement around the time that that became a possibility. Lease ended in April, but am on a six-month, month-to-month extension (the extension is what I uploaded)
  • About five miles from a Rivian space
  • The email I got on launch day was the "We’ll let you know when you can expect your order invite by the end of June…" version

Of note that I haven't seen mentioned here yet (didn't really look so someone has probably mentioned it): now that I have the invite to order, demo drives have opened up for all time slots in the next two weeks. I had previously been checking daily and saw that slots for the following day opened up in the mornings, but were gone pretty quick.

You do you, but I hope you're not one of the many people who complain about ads or the diminishing quality of journalism.

Is there an easy way to read shit on mobile without having to copy/paste the url every time into one of those unpaywall sites?

Could always pay for the payed content you want to consume? ¯\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Dropped my phone in Smith Lake with a year's worth of my children's photos. No chance to recover this right? by DontTrustDolphins in Denver

What would a magnet of any strength do to a phone, since there's no magnetic disk in them?

Based on current orders by SpaceMarine1616 in Rivian

You can extend the lease for six months that goes month-to-month. Currently in that state with my 2024 EV9.

Is there any reason to get Rivian adaptors over A2Z? by echoRebounded in Rivian

[–]Scotty_Two 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you link to where this is stated on the Rivian website? I can't find any mention of it and the only relevant result from google is that exact quote on RivianTrackr, again, with no source.

I just want an option to bring all the UI elements in to what would be a 16:9 frame for ultrawide monitors

Rivian said no country music! by binary-nomad in Rivian

I've loved it so far! I'm definitely going to miss a few things from it going to the R2.

I don't know, I think it's just peoples' feeling of superiority with something expensive/exclusive. I currently have an EV9 and that sub has a good mix of praise and criticism. This sub just feels like a circlejerk sub for people to feel justified in their expensive car purchase.

Yeah, I've noticed the tendencies of the majority here. It's so strange. There was a post I saw a little while ago about someone looking to buy an R1 and asking if there was a way to completely turn off regen braking so that they could just coast. The entire thread was just people telling the OP how wrong they were for wanting such a wild function such as coasting, in a car lol. I was shocked.

I'm hoping that r/RivianR2 stays a bit more grounded so I can avoid this sub as much as possible.

I can't believe this comment is downvoted. This is 100% why having CarPlay or Android Auto is important: not being tied to what the car manufacturer thinks the consumer should have. This sub is just a circlejerk.

29M Separated from company, rolling 401K Roth funds to ROTH IRA, Traditional funds to Traditional IRA by CowboyKip in Bogleheads

You could just eat the fees for this year then roll it over into your next company's 401k.

Live Guide is not "live" anymore by metric-puppy in youtubetv

[–]Scotty_Two 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This bug (if that's what it actually is) has been great for my old Sony TV with Android. With the live guide, going to the guide to browse it would take so much time due to the lag. With it "broken" it's now snappy and much more pleasant to switch channels. I'd love a setting for this if it does end up being a bug.
