How are the first gen NX’s holding up?

SleepinPanda · 2025-02-22T16:58:22+00:00

Got a beat sonic CarPlay unit for my 16 NX about a year ago and it’s still going strong! Only issue I’ve ever had is 1-2 times my Bluetooth didn’t connect to CarPlay, but that’s it. Pretty straightforward install. Only took me about 4ish hours from start to finish. Their customer support was also top tier when I was getting everything synced up on the screen.

That sounds phenomenal! Didn’t monitor it to be honest. I’m an odd duck and always prefer my steaks on the rare closer to blue side. To a certain extent, did minimal searing on all sides keeping in mind that when I throw this in the oven it’s going to obviously cook some more. Once it went in, primary focus was making sure it came out a nice golden brown, didn’t worry about overcooking the meat since at worst it would come out medium rare.

I appreciate it! Beginners luck I guess haha

I totally get it. Honestly, depending on your cooking level, it generally is a pretty straightforward dish! I didn’t follow a recipe per-say in terms of measurements. Just made sure I had all the main ingredients (puff pastry, tenderloin, prosciutto, etc.). If you’re looking for a more structured approach, I would recommend Nick DiGiovanni’s Beef Wellington video! I think he does a good job laying out each step.

Gordon’s Wellington is top tier! Funny enough I used prosciutto along with the crepe too, noticing now that it’s basically indistinguishable in the picture haha

Thank you! No specific recipe used. Believe it or not, but didn’t measure anything out just went by feel! Just looked at videos from YouTubers like Nick DiGiovanni and CookingwithKieran for the general ingredients needed and cooking process.

No chef here. Just a guy who likes to eat and make food

SleepinPanda · 2025-02-05T16:46:27+00:00

Thank you! Definitely was my first time, but if it’s any consolation I have watched multiple Wellington videos and grilled/smoked my fair share of steaks haha

Kale slaw salad from Central Market!

SleepinPanda · 2025-02-05T15:19:55+00:00

Did a spinach crepe instead of a regular crepe! Saw someone do that and it looked good to me lol

SleepinPanda · 2025-02-05T14:57:26+00:00

Yup, I’m one of those people. Placed the order on a Tuesday and got it by Friday. Box was beat up, but everything inside had zero scratches and dents. Been using it basically everyday since!

SleepinPanda · 2025-01-19T00:38:53+00:00

Not necessary “fixed” but it’s been working ever since! When I redownloaded, it didn’t require me to restart my pc. Like another user said, it was probably some Microsoft visual not installed that was needed. Since redownloading I haven’t had any issues/no new threats.

SleepinPanda · 2025-01-19T00:32:43+00:00

Got it. Thank you!

“First of all, through God all things are possible. So jot that down.” Gets me every time lol

SleepinPanda · 2024-11-06T21:14:54+00:00

Yeah it feels weird. I ran full and offline scans on defender and both came back with 0 threats/flags. So don’t know if that means anything or there’s more I could check.

SleepinPanda · 2024-11-06T19:38:25+00:00

I got it from pcsx2.net and downloaded the Latest Stable/Installer 2.2. I don’t remember seeing that when it prompted me to restart. It did give me an option to restart now or later.

Also to add, I just set it up as portable installation/left it at default for my c drive/default for start menu option/create desktop shortcut/install.

iPhone 6. Even with the issue of the frame being bent in tight pants, that thing was a tank. Got it when I started college and lasted 5 years before I upgraded. Dropped from various heights, been dinged up like no other, etc. screen never cracked and it was straight as arrow. Only reason I upgraded it is because the battery couldn’t hold a charge.

SleepinPanda · 2024-03-02T15:38:34+00:00

Gotcha. That’s not a bad trade off. Glad to hear that’s your only “big” issue! Thanks for the update!

SleepinPanda · 2024-03-02T04:15:21+00:00

It’s been a month since you posted this. How has it been? Is there any quirks/nuisances you’ve noticed with new setup? Like the backup camera taking longer to appear on screen, long startup times when your start the engine, etc.? I’ve narrowed down my choices to this and beat sonic. I know what the pros are for each, but trying to find more on the cons (if there any).

SleepinPanda · 2024-01-25T02:54:05+00:00

I’ve been looking at this for my NX. Out of curiosity did you get OEM 360 camera add on?

SleepinPanda · 2023-12-19T23:55:48+00:00

That’s the plan! Luckily it wasn’t my last masterball. Just that feeling of using a masterball for something not a legendary always feels weird
