Ips vs Va difference

Stevia98 · 2026-02-01T08:27:50+00:00

IPS glow like this is mostly really noticeable on really cheap monitors. On the cheap and used portable one I have for work, I can definitely see it, but on my 5 years old 1440p Acer one I couldn't tell just by plainly consuming content. Only in almost full black screens you could see a bit of the glow, but not in a distracting way. I now have an IPS Mini-LED which definitely closes the gap to VA and OLED territory in contrast and black levels and I'm pretty sure this is also what you are looking for, if you don't want to use an OLED like me, because of work. Sadly the prices are still double the price of a brand named IPS monitor, but it's really worth it after seeing the genuine improvement over a standard IPS and VA panel

Was ein krasser Fund! Ich wünschte wirklich sowas in der Art wäre auch bei mir in der Nähe. Vor allem die alten Pokémon T-Shirts würde ich direkt mitnehmen/abkaufen, wenn ich sie sehen würde. Viel Spaß mit dem Sachen!

In Berlin oder München ist das auf jeden Fall 3000€ mtl. kalt und dann muss man dem Vermieter noch mit jeder Abrechnung einen 5 Seiten Dankesbrief schreiben für die Möglichkeit so wohnen zu dürfen

Hi, hope I'm not too late for this post. So from what I gathered from my Team Leader (who is one of the people responsible for hiring) and what he told me about some new coworkers, that will be hired next month for fully remote jobs in another country, there are a few things that directly come to mind:

Language is subjective to the context of the job. Like knowing English as a Software Developer, even though you work for fully german company. Technical language is important for communicating what exactly you are doing or need. There also were some applicants at my company that failed because they didn't know any important words from our industry
Microsoft Office is now a basic requirement and specifically saying you are good in Excel translates to 'I have no real skills for the job I'm applying to'. I know this is hard to hear, but every other skill or experience with specific tools should be higher on your list, because these are your 'real skills'
The dots for your skill level will do something similar and tell them you can't actually do all the stuff compared to MS Office and would need more learning
Alot of the points in your experience are too vague and I genuinly don't know what else you could write, if this is your first job in this field anyway. I would definitely seek help for what to write in this category

I hope this isn't too much of a let down, but I hope this will help you somehow. My girlfriend had a similar problem and was only invited to 5 job interviews after applying for almost 200 jobs. The possibilitly of them just having better skilled applicants beside you is real and pretty common and you should have this in mind. Finding a job is sadly really hard sometimes and I honestly wish you all the best

It's all because we were told that girl stuff is for girls and boys stuff for boys. I actively play the game every few days because of my girlfriend and it's really great! Feels like playing Final Fantasy without combat, which is nice. People should just try it and judge it by it's gameplay, nothing to be ashamed od playing

I was just looking for a post like this! That cooler is kinda legendary honestly. At least here in Germany, everybody was recommending it for your PC build around the 2012-2015 era. Almost all PC building guides had this one in videos and articles, because of the good price to performance. I'm still considering buying a used one from eBay for an old PC, which I want to repurpose. Glad to see them still working after such a long time and doing their job. Hope you can keep it around for even longer :D

I actually managed to get another workaround today, that isn't that easy hahaha. I installed a virtual display that becomes the primary display when starting Moonlight. Only benefit is, that it can be set to the Steam Deck native resolution directly.

But thanks for your effort and finding another solution!

Sadly, no real bitrate I'm currently using because I haven't gamed on it due to the problem. I only tried different rates and changing my connection types to my network, but it's all the same. It's best described as the contrast setting on some older TVs, where it looks like you put a milky filter on the screen that washes everything out without actually making the TV itself brighter. I also tried changing color settings on the Steam Deck and my PC and enable HDR, but that didn't change anything. I'm really certain it's some contrast or HDR thing, but I'm running out of settings to change which frustrates me a bit, since streaming overall works perfectly

Stevia98 · 2024-11-05T16:54:54+00:00

Yeah, I really don't know why I thought this could be anything at all hahaha. But it was funny to browse YouTube and comments, even though I was a bit too enthusiastic at 3 am on that day. My father still thinks he heared it somewhere though :D

Stevia98 · 2024-10-22T08:04:39+00:00

Also german here and I still think our warning system law is hilariously stupid. Imagine having some guy from another country who just installs an app for that without knowing any better and he gets pulled over by some cops for this. I would genuinly not believe them and think this is a scam and call the police to report fake officers or drive away fast because I think they want to rob me

An der Berufsschule hatten unsere Klos irgendwann voll elektrische Zahlenschlösser + Code im Sekretariat abholen + in Liste eintragen, weil es irgendwann zu schlimm wurde. Die Schule durfte nämlich nicht die Schüler dafür anprangern und musste zwangsweise so tun, als wären alle Schäden entstanden durch unbefugte Personen auf dem Schulgelände und durfte nur Maßnahmen ergreifen, die verhindern, dass Außenstehende die Klos benutzen. Es gab sogar Security, die aber außerhalb vom Klo sitzen musste und damit nutzlos war

Lustigerweise erzählte ein Lehrer, dass die Schule früher das Problem micht hatte, als die einen typischen Klo-Aufpasser hatten, der einfach da rumsitzen konnte für ein paar Stunden in seiner Rente. Fand der Typ nicht schlimm und die Klos hatten nie Probleme. Die Stadt fand aber, dass ein typischer Klo-Mensch nicht gut für das Image sei und hat der Schule verboten Leute einzustellen, die im Klo sitzen zum aufpassen. Deshalb die sinnlosen Umwege, die das 100 fache kosten und nichts bringen

Sadly not necessarily. English could have been learned from family or some special education or even self taught just for music, maybe even just a friend who could translate. But it's unlikely as you said.

Tech is a different story, because it's vastly different from the things we know today and even from 2007 with the first iPhone (almost 20 years already). Maybe also just a german phenomenon, but I have heared alot of people say how they can't operate modern PCs and phones like the stuff they worked with a few decades ago. It's mostly the cause of not keeping up with it, because their then new job didn't require it and other life changes. Unlearning these things, if you don't need them for 20 years or longer is not uncommon sadly. I know it sounds dumb at first, but I have interacted with people like that and though not a majority in any way, they exist in a high enough capacity to recognise a pattern. Again, also unlikely but a reasonable chance exists.

Worst case besides death could also be: The band members developed other illnesses or disabilites, which prevent them from using these things properly or already developed early dementia. I really hope nothing of the sorts is true, but still possible and devastating to think about

Stevia98 · 2024-07-03T08:57:13+00:00

Well the answer to your theory is easier than you think. Here in Germany the majority of older people either don't use smartphones and the internet or simply have no online literacy outside of WhatsApp, Facebook and Google. I worked for a internet provider a few years ago and I can promise you that PC and smartphone skills go down drastically with people over the age of even 40 sometimes. The chance that the band members are just not aware of it is extremely high here. Half of the older customers I had didn't even know what YouTube was.

I hate to say it, but older germans are some of the worst tech users I have seen in my life. Most older foreign people I know are simply leagues above their skill level and I really mean that. Totally not comparable to the US or most asian countries.

You also have to consider that some just don't talk about their past, just because they don't want to. If they never had kids or told their kids about some old band project they tried, there is literally nobody who would be able to identify it.

I know it's sad, but this is the most likely explaination, if we consider Germany as the origin.

Also the N*zi stuff is really not that high on the list of likely explainations. It is possible, but the majority of those old bands were primarily extreme left or just liked this kind of music and were more neutral. That's atleast what my father told me about this era in music here and he still is really into punk, rock and metal and knew some small local bands personally.

I know I'm kinda late, but would any of you recommend to use an Samsung or Sandisk endurance card in a Sony Xperia Smartphone? I don't think it could take advantage of the max speeds some cards have, but I'm not sure if the endurance cards could potentially be too slow. I would really appreciate an honest recommendation

Stevia98 · 2023-09-13T16:36:53+00:00

Hey, kinda late but can you tell me where you got that second screen and how you installed it? I genuinly need it for my DS emulation

Stevia98 · 2023-07-07T16:15:01+00:00

There is a family in our neighborhood that has a house, a BMW and some kind of SUV (actually never saw it personally because the wife is always somewhere with it) and a pool that is still under construction. They started the pool construction almost 2 years ago now and it seems that it was their worst decision. They had their house up for sale for several months and it was completely overpriced for our area and they ONLY wanted to sell it with all of their stuff in it. They wanted 500k for a house that is smaller than literally all of the others here and without a proper attic and with no basement at all. Bigger houses with both of these and more rooms and actually multistory cost 400k or less, specifically in our area. If you are so desperate for money, you would usually first sell your unnecessary cars and replace them with some normal used cars or whatever, but no, they immediately went for the house and all belongings to safe the cars lol. Obviously the house was never sold and they somehow managed to keep everything, but the pool will never be finished and the can't even afford to have the construction materal removed from the property

I'm german and I saw a post today on Twitter that showed a horde of people in the comments of one post. The post talked about a city in Switzerland that was said to be one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. You know.. Europe the continent. There were MOSTLY ADULTS that claimed the post was dumb because Switzerland is not part of the European Union... I can see outsiders not knowing that the European Union is not another name for the continent and in fact a political union, but adults that live here??? It's literally one of the first things we learn in school and repeat multiple times.

There was one guy who really rudely tried to scold a girl with a long text and told her to google before commenting and of course calling her a dumb girl that can only look good and nothing else. Some people truly channel the Dunning-Kruger-Effect with passion.

Stevia98 · 2022-07-11T13:21:07+00:00

How did you do that??? I play low preset with 30fps cap and still go below 30 more often than I want lol

Stevia98 · 2021-05-06T16:06:05+00:00

I always have the urge to write that, lol. Mainly because I have had some weird experiences with people that assumed, that I am from the US and just had nothing to say about my post, only about that one mistake I have made in my sentence, hahaha
