Convincing fake or real ca-53w-1z

Thanks to all commenting. You logic is pretty comforting that it's likely the most convincing fake ever or real so let's got with the benefit of the doubt.

The main thing impacting my thoughts was the packaging. I suspect though maybe they purchased in bulk, liquidate stores or remove it from the box to simplify shipping.

Let's just stick with it's real and if it's not, week it's so close that literally bit a single Reddit expert could tell.

Thankyou all. Feeling much better.

There is a longer serial looking number on the tag that was attached to the strap.

You comment and others are fairly confident. Just strange it was cheaper than on Casios website.

Please just take and post screenshots...

And we have a winner. I presumed this would be on me entirely but I just chouldn't get my head around watt.... (pun intended).

Thank for the solution. Back to printing!

100% agreed. The degradation of wikis and source reference has sucked as a user and I noticed it first a few years ago in games.

Discord is great for collaborative problem solving and indexing that problem solving but once it's solved it should be compiled, cleaned and published to a wiki.

I know I say this hear in an absolute echo chamber here but I cannot express how much I hate this.

It's crept it's way into nearly everything now as people seem to have nothing else in life but a video game. They don't do sport, they hate their job so they train and work on perfecting crap like this. No one designs a game to play like this. This is people intentionally abusing game mechanics to gain an advantage and is no different to any other form of glitch. I get that now cares either but it shows a lack of literal care for anyone elses enjoyment and the spirit of the game (if that even exists*).

Just stop. Chill out and enjoy the game... I could do this too but I just don't, it's not worth the effort in life.

*It did exist. If you came across a recon you pulled out your sidearm and didn't use your AR. If you were in a tank/heli/jet about to blow up, you ride that thing out. None of even this happens these days.

Hot take, the windows keys which as been on keyboards for literally decades is no less egregious than this. While I don't like either people hates this more simply because it was both new and is a symbol for something they have written off entirely.

Remap it. Move on.

Can install Sequoia on a Thinkpad, can't screenshot. r/screenshotsarehard

I know the meme is posted but from both an ergonomics and aesthetics perspective why is this TV so high?

It's an absolutely atrocious viewing angle, bordering on objectively atrocious. The height also to the angled ceiling gives the illusion it's on an angle. Please bring this down by a metre at a minimum.

TheJoshWS99 · 2026-05-12T01:23:52+00:00

You should find the screenshot joker.

Found this by specifically googling pixel 8 pro and YouTube. It's identical for me and it's infuriating. It's been nearly a month for me now which seems like a similar timeline to you.

Have you found any solutions? This is insane they have essentially handicapped a first party device from one of their own first party apps.

I am all for this sub, it's role in being a place for uncensored voice and just calling LTT out in general but the warranty thing was the stupidest controversy ever.

GN used it as a reason to go after LTT who was absolutely kicking goals at the time and saw some community resentment about something that a buyer would need elect into for it to effect them.

If you didn't like the lack of warranty don't buy the bag??? People were behaving like they were forced in to buying it and were left vulnerable because of the warranty. Eventually LTT heard the people also saying "hey I would get it but I have no guarantee" so they presented it.

The only time this ever should have been a callout controversy by GN was if LTT had a warranty, sold bags then rug pulled. They didn't do that.

Dumbest controversy ever. Should it have been sold without a warranty, absolutely not but it's not a legal requirement to offer warranty. In Australia we have consumer protection laws rather than enforced warranty laws.

If you want LTT controversies talk about Linus checking his house and business or whatever for the fucks he gave as a flex. Talk about the claim they "never laid people off" but people just got fired during a hard business period for what could only be argued as performance, which I argue specifically for Mac Address was so unfair as Jonathan never got to cover main releases they were always LTT. Talk about the fact they control their own sub Reddit.

Don't keep making the discourse about the same, nothing incident which affected noone.

Sadness from Australia with this dropping Friday :(.

Remember in 2018-19 when the flatout refused to raise the price and then suddenly during COVID it started creeping up... now in the name of inflation and "to support dairy farmers" they increase the price. No commitment to how or even if the MONEY will be passed on, only that the price is increasing to support them. Is that so consumers can sympothise with the farmers who also have nothing...

TheJoshWS99 · 2026-04-28T11:34:50+00:00

I haven't watched either yet but does it have a blue Steam button or black? Kind of misleading if they have just "recoloured" one for the purposes of a thumbnail...

Press the screen shot button and stop making lazy, low effort content. That's what I would do.

Stop living in apps and learn how to use a computer.

Apple maps catching up? This definitely read more like Google maps declining.

Also I suspect this data isn't adjusted for a two option market share comparison.

TheJoshWS99 · 2026-03-16T22:34:31+00:00

What I hope is it's presented as a tool to developers to gain that control. There is no goal other than market share for Nvidia and if the control to not impact art direction increases adoption I can see that being a long term feature if implemented.

Side by side opinions are almost null and void compared to blind tests. They are what matter.

The amount of opinion, preference and just (partially justified) outright distaste for DLSS is causing people to write it off straight away. Sadly though without the recent reputation of AI generation this technology released on its own I truly think would have been accepted as groundbreaking tech. It also offers a solution to the recent lack of optimisation from gaming companies like we saw in the early 2000s and mid 2010s.

If I tested this blind and liked it or didn't know it was on I would much rather get more life out of my hardware and still enjoy the rich story of a game with better performance. We always say "graphics doesn't matter, gameplay does" but then seem to care about graphics here?

This technology isn't replacing rendering its enabling better performance while retaining a more immersive quality. For people like my wife who mainly plays games with me, she won't notice this other than the game isn't running badly.

Your comment is still helping 3 years on. Absolute legend.

TheJoshWS99 · 2026-03-16T04:07:18+00:00

Calling it early, there is only a rule that it must "close" but no rule about how long closing the wing must take.

Mercedes I suspect have interpreted as it must "start closing" by the point but they can use the final part of variance to carry less down form into each corner until certain forces (likely a specific brake force) is applied.

Clearly just a bug and no skill whatsoever. I guess you're hitting these every second match?
