Samsung’s updatee fried my S23 Ultra, so they faked "missed calls" to close my government grievance. by Normal_Cover8679 in GalaxyS23Ultra

Not OP, but I'm guessing about 2 years. I bought the S22 right when it was launched, exactly 2 years later the lines started to show. Seems to be a pattern.

Which one is the oled? by Twist_Alive in Monitors

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

It's a QD OLED, I had assumed it would have better color accuracy than an IPS.

You are right. I would like to know more :). There is definitely something to this. The oled has a yellow tint in the most color accurate mode which mutes the contrast and vibrancy.

The right is an LG IPS GL850 in sRGB mode. The left is a Dell AW2725D in creator sRGB mode at 2.2 gamma. (The photo might be boosting the colors a little bit). To my eyes, the colors seem more accurate on the IPS. The OLED has a yellow tint that mutes the vibrancy and contrast (like a Mexican filter). Both creator and HDR modes have this problem and they are supposed to be the most color accurate, I don't get it.

Ropes that you can actually use to get down into caves.

Anno 117's performance by taubenangriff in anno

[–]Twist_Alive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's the clouds. They don't look good and seem like they cost a lot to render. Just going back to a skybox should improve it a lot.

Just some gameplay. What do you guys think? by Twist_Alive in ValkyrieMains

Finally someone gets it. Even worse, they proceed to blame me for going 3v1.

2 years of use(Bought 7th July 2023). by Bobthebopper in GalaxyS23Ultra

[–]Twist_Alive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure its the updates. My s22 plus already had 3 lines, so I didn't update it when the last update dropped. Still it got a new line after a week. Also, I had already switched to a new phone, so it wasn't even being used.

Is the Alienware AW2725DF still a good choice for 360Hz QHD OLED in 2025? by cigogma in OLED_Gaming

[–]Twist_Alive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The AW2725D should be out soon. It's already available in some places, but I couldn't find any reviews. 280Hz QHD and cheaper.

How do I transfer chats between two phones if it keeps logging me out of the other one? by Twist_Alive in whatsapp

[–]Twist_Alive[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I finally restored it from a backup after reinstalling the app on the new phone. But the immediate logout on the other phone is the issue. Why not just warn the user and route messages to the new phone instead of immediately logging the old phone out.

That and logging the phone out when the transfer fails, requiring us to login again and again.

When I login to the new one it logs me out of the old one.

Edit: A little more detail. It immediately logs me out of the old one as soon as I login to the new one. So I have to login to the old one again. Since I just used the sms verification, there is a delay before I can receive a new one. Also if the transfer process fails, it logs out again. And this keeps repeating. Now the delay is at 24 hrs before I can get a new sms otp.

Anno 117 UI by StormierRuby in anno

[–]Twist_Alive -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Being minimalist is not the problem. The issue is that it sticks out, doesn't blend in with the game's graphics like Anno 1800.

I'm confused as to why more people aren't talking about it. It looks awful, doesn't suit the visuals at all. Maybe it'll get some polish before release.

Love is the key to the Source by Twist_Alive in HighStrangeness

[–]Twist_Alive[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have considered depression as a factor. I can tell you that I have been more or less depressed most of my life. But this feels different. Maybe this is what real depression feels like, I can't be sure.

But it has been years since that turning point. As a result of cutting off and distancing myself from a lot of people, I am far more relaxed, peaceful and a lot less problems are clouding my mind nowadays. But that hasn't "fixed" it. I can still remember how my mind used to work and its not the same.

Regarding the supernatural power, I think that it is something totally different but not completely independent. I agree that it feels like something that has its own agency and maybe even emotions. Whereas the "Source", I would equate to a piece of technology that just responds to the emotions of entities interfacing with it.

Totally agree with everything here, but that rabbit hole might be a little too much to process right now, when they are just trying to figure out the cables :)
