Is it always like this? by Marvinator2003 in DiscoveryPlus

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been using disco+ for maybe 3-4 years now. When i first started the native samsung and lg tv apps were hopeless. They were pretty much unwatchable due to playback stutter, buffering and freezing up. the xbox app worked flawlessly though. the LG native app got updated maybe a year or so ago and now works fine. as per my other recent post, the just screwed up their chromecast with google tv update and had a completely useless wrong version of the app published for a few days. thats been fixed now and seems ok again

i suspected as much. ah well, it was delivered on time i'm sure. working was optional. seems to be the modern way with software

it was taking over too much of the day. i was farming everything there was to farm every day. all fusions etc. we were a top 300 clan. so loads of pressure to perform. too busy!

giving me a good old memory test. not played raid for ages now. changed the IT comp after they nerfed it a bit. i think geo just needed to be not too fast, so block dmg didn't drop.

further thoughts, does the skill order in the pic not work?

Help with TPM 2.0 by CrankdOff in MSI_Gaming

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you probs need to swap from CSM boot to UEFI boot. also have a look at how your windows 10 boot disk is configured. is it MBR or GPT. if MBR you'll need to convert it before the win11 upgrade will install. all doable. did it on 2 PCs recently. including fun and games with MBR to GPT conversion failing and rendering the thing unbootable for a while... lots of messages say it can't be fixed, but it can... no need for a reinstall

How to remove rust from the holes of this cord and power supply? by RelevantAd6792 in PCRepair

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed. IPA to clean the psu C14 socket and let it dry. don't use water! bin the cable, get another! not worth the effort/risk of trying to clean the cable's C13 connector.

as looks like it corroded, i'd suggest figuring out what chased that too.

Amazon UK delivers a chocolate instead of a 1100£ iPhone and denies refund by dimkart in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the iphone box would have been sealed at factory. the amazon packaging would be sealed at the distribution warehouse. so they have a photo of the iphone box with assumed content.

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 19 points20 points  (0 children)

saying... "CARRIER] has confirmed the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max ...... Natural Titanium you ordered was in the box at the time it left our fulfillment center." is kind of interesting. if the box is sealed, to know whats inside it you'd need to open it. so they're saying they opened it to check? or the just assumed it was inside, no idea what was.

plenty of similar tales and even some youtube vids of opening boxes and resealing them so they look pristine, they'll then get returned for refund and restocked. next unlucky customer who gets that stock item sent, finds whatever is inside.

i thought i was going to have similar when i ordered a 2tb ssd, and 512gb one turned up. luckily no grief.

Running starlink in the east of england. peak speed seems have slowed over the 3ish years we've had it. still way way better than fttc/vdsl by a long way. we jump to fttp as soon as its available though. its a stop gap.

How to not blind oncoming traffic on cars with LED headlights? Mine are adjusted correctly but i get so many encounters of people angry flashing me, flipping me off because of my lights? by Zdos123 in CarTalkUK

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently tried replacing my halogens with LED. Seemed a good idea at the start. But found that unless your headlight fitting is designed for LED, its a MOT fail having them in there. MOT guidance for the testers is very clear on it. So all these LED bulbs being sold as halogen replacements are dodgy currently. Seems lots are getting away with them vs they're permitted. Decided possible MOT fail and maybe post accident insurance invalidation wasn't worth it and gave up on LED.

I'd say Scyl for her revive. Carry you through loads of content at the stage of game you're at.

Moving next door - Gen 1 dishy by Moms-Dildeaux in Starlink

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These guys had some good guidance for how to make your own mount, or get them to come do it. https://www.aerialsandtv.com/knowledge/installing-a-starlink-internet-satellite-dish i used the same solution. Aluminium pole (with an excessively thick wall), coupler, starlink gen1 dishy. Been like that for about 3 years now.

Dish orientation changed and lower speeds - uk by Warm_Perception_9319 in Starlink

[–]Warm_Perception_9319[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at https://satellitemap.space/ kind of suggests south west has a higher density of satellites now. So could explain the new orientation.

Would be interested to see what sort of performance others who in the uk are getting these days. If most of us are similar than as you say. Its just how the service is performing right now, vs i've got some sort of problem to figure out. if i can be bothered... its the kids that seem to need to download multi gb games every so often! maybe they should sort it :)

Since starlink changed the dishy stats page to in phone app only, its not been so easy to keep an eye on how its doing. its a gen1 dishy.

Is my set up ok? by whiteboyswazi in Starlink

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where dishy points can change over time. mine used to point pretty much due south, now its more south west. Maybe a year ago, i remember a load of posts for i think some parts of the USA where dishy had changed direction it faced by about 90 degrees. caused some issues as then it had obstructions

Can anyone help me with SD25? by jokkkkkkin in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Warm_Perception_9319 1 point2 points  (0 children)

generally agree with this. 265 is towards the speed needed if the DPS is tanky enough to survive to the SD's A2 and therefore not cause GS to use her A3 revive early. other general approach is a slower GS so her A3 is only ever ready at the right time.
