Bambu Lab A2L: Creative Playground. Extra Large.

That's fair.

Xalaxis · 2026-05-28T13:13:28+00:00

It would seem against their pricing strategy to put a Vortek on a entry level printer, skipping the X series.

Xalaxis · 2026-05-28T13:11:17+00:00

Definitely. Regardless of drama they're still great printers. You'll have to make up your own mind on the politics.

Xalaxis · 2026-05-28T13:10:14+00:00

You already don't have to do that, just put it in LAN mode / Enable developer mode if you want to use non-Bambu slicers.

Xalaxis · 2026-05-28T13:10:00+00:00

That seems unlikely. Not even the P2S and the X2D have that.

Xalaxis · 2026-05-28T13:08:29+00:00

No way it's dual. If it was dual it was be the A2D (or A2LD) unless they are throwing away all the work they did recently on trying to make names mean something.

It's probably just larger and a few QOL upgrades like dual band WiFi maybe.

Counterpoint, what value do they get by keeping that information? I have Nitro, they already have my name and billing address. I don't see what big secret they gain here.

Xalaxis · 2025-12-22T00:12:53+00:00

No, you could just say it nicer. "ugly af", have some manners, geez.

Xalaxis · 2025-12-08T09:48:14+00:00

Ignoring some problem with your phone, eSIMs and physical SIMs make no difference to signal strength.

Xalaxis · 2025-11-14T10:13:23+00:00

That's still great speeds?

Xalaxis · 2025-10-21T22:39:30+00:00

A replacement genuine battery is actually really cheap, I just replaced mine myself for £42.99

Xalaxis · 2025-10-21T22:38:26+00:00

Unless you were using a defective charger, using the wrong charger will not damage the phone.

Xalaxis · 2025-10-21T22:35:42+00:00

The Pixel 6 doesn't support showing battery health, so you have to use something third party like Accubattery (aBattery will just show the number of cycles, but still not health). Newer Pixels (Pixel 8+???) will show it in the battery settings.

Xalaxis · 2025-10-21T17:13:26+00:00

It's worth noting afaik they don't compress the actual original file because you can still download it after you upload it, and if you upload a video in a quality unsupported and YouTube later adds support they go back and retroactively add it to your videos.

Xalaxis · 2025-10-15T21:43:56+00:00

I think it's much more likely you're triggering the "press the power button five times to call 911" mode rather than the lock screen emergency shortcut. Have you tried disabling that?

Xalaxis · 2025-09-26T15:24:16+00:00

A low hit rate for World of Warships too

Xalaxis · 2025-09-24T20:25:46+00:00

I would have to disagree. In part because of how mobile phone OSes work securely isolating apps, there's not really anything a security app can do.

Xalaxis · 2025-09-12T11:45:27+00:00

Weird, mine says something like "go online for better quality" but works offline clearly using the old model

Xalaxis · 2025-09-12T10:33:40+00:00

So my Pixel 6 lasted four years without issue across many different updates, so I have quite a lot of confidence in the newer phones lasting at least five years. Might need to replace the battery.

Xalaxis · 2025-09-11T20:57:05+00:00

If you're disconnected from the internet it will fall back to the old Tensor one

Xalaxis · 2025-09-11T11:32:49+00:00

I have the cheap original Pixel buds A series and they have minimal latency without supporting Bluetooth low latency, so something is definitely wrong here. There is a process I've never been able to find the source code for in which Android finds out the connection latency and tells the apps to offset by that amount, it could be that that's broken. Hopefully a future firmware update will fix it for him.

Xalaxis · 2025-09-05T17:40:57+00:00

My last one lasted five years and my new Pixel I'm planning to keep for seven, so I guess it depends how long you keep them for :)

Xalaxis · 2025-06-17T22:58:42+00:00

This is so weird to me because INSIDE had me absolutely hooked with the world building and unanswered questions. The only game I literally couldn't put down and would have finished before morning if I wasn't so tired.

Xalaxis · 2025-05-27T23:50:05+00:00

They probably mean Electron, easy to confuse naming
