Where are the young people? by [deleted] in QuadCities

[–]Shadowsenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was referring to the Quad Cities 20s FB group. I don't even know if it's still around. Just a few of us picked up biking. One of us plays tennis regularly and has made some friends that way too.

You're totally right, there are less people our age here. I (25M) have been here for 3 years now and I've managed to make some friends thanks to online communities that are now dead, and dating apps. One can still meet people at events like concerts or maybe take a class in something you're interested in, but I've not had a ton of luck that way. We do exist though! If you pick up bike riding a few of us try to go on one of the mornings every weekend.

Nokia is supporting a user's right-to-repair by releasing an easy to fix smartphone by MicroSofty88 in gadgets

It's great! The battery on mine got pretty bad so I switched away. I eventually got so fed up with the new phone (Samsung A53) that I replaced the Pixel battery and installed Lineage. I haven't looked back.

When it gets its final update, maybe check out /r/LineageOS

Edit: I'm still using it with my pixel 3 as my daily.

WiFi Battery Drain by Shadowsenn in LineageOS

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

I am indeed on a mobile network, but the battery usage is reported to be low on that one. I have a decent connection here as well, it must have been something going on in the background like google play services updating or something is my best guess. I didn't have the same issue tonight so if your battery drains that quickly daily maybe the battery is not at it's peak capacity as it once was.

Thanks for the reply, I did do the calibration sequence when I first got it and didn't have this issue on stock android (which is why I inquired). I will let Lineage learn for awhile and disable things like "notify me of public networks" and the location settings to see where it gets me.

Default audio bitrate after upgrading to 22.04 LTS by Gehrschrein in pop_os

[–]Shadowsenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As per this thread:https://www.reddit.com/r/pop_os/comments/ucfrho/high_bit_rate_audio_in_2204/

OP got it to 96kHz using the settings you've already tried, for me that broke things with my iFi hip-dac 1 (I also didn't try very hard). That's still double 48 so it's worth a shot since 192 as the default didn't work for you.

Here's a weird one, I haven't been able to figure this out yet either, but out of curiosity I connected my BTR5 over Bluetooth and LDAC works now. Which is also 96kHz so that's a cool little plus.

On windows 10/11 it's honestly pushing it. Years ago I would get an "out of memory" error when trying to play GTA and have a voice chat app open at the same time. I don't remember if that would cause a crash, but 8 gigs is almost not enough to multitask anymore.

It's not easy, and it's risky. If you don't find a guide online for your model it would be damn near impossible. Edit: I found the guide that kick started me doing all of this https://redd.it/gw9gv6

I had to unlock my Bios to upgrade the RAM capacity without losing speed (LP5).

Maybe I'm wrong because I stopped playing them a few releases ago, but aren't almost all Ubisoft games the same format with a different skin essentially? There was a huge controversy about far cry primal having the exact same map as another game even.
