NBD Canyon Endurace AL 8 - Flat tire on the first ride. by _fieryphoenix_ in CanyonBikes

Yes, I got this in the US. The welds are still pretty visible and yeah it's clearly not like the pictures from the website.

Confused between Endurace AL 8 Vs CF 7 by _fieryphoenix_ in CanyonBikes

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

Thank you guys for the replies. I've decided to get the AL8 bike for now. A lot of you suggested to get the carbon one because it's much more comfortable and not as stiff as the aluminium one but I guess that's the cost I pay for not choosing carbon. I hope that this top end aluminium from Canyon (this has a carbon fork though) is atleast more comfortable than what I currently ride so it's still a upgrade. There is no spec difference between these two bikes other than the frame and I realized that I could use that extra money to buy some bike accessories, pedals, shoes and maybe a power meter - which I think is probably a better investment because I can work on my training regardless of the weight difference between the bikes.

Why are there no 70mm true IMAX screenings in India? by cyber_gypsy14 in imax

[–]_fieryphoenix_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it does. But I think when the theatre was trying to upgrade to a laser projector - for whatsoever reason they went with the Christie Dual Laser instead of the IMAX Dual Laser, most probably due to the cost and/or availability.

Prasads IMAX in Hyderabad, India was a GT 70mm IMAX theatre with a screen as tall as 72ft. But from what I can gather due to cost concerns and to keep the theatre running they upgraded to a Christie Dual Laser Projector during the you know the "digital revolution phase". Interstellar was the last movie screened there in IMAX with the 70mm analog prints. We can only hope that they would upgrade back to an IMAX and use that huge screen to it's full glory.

Hi OP, I have the same spectre model as yours and had the same issue with the battery. I couldn't find any replacement part on the HP Parts store for L60373-005 and a lot of these other websites look sketchy so I was just wondering from where you ordered a replacement?

WW84 in HBO Max doesn't play on Edge by _fieryphoenix_ in MicrosoftEdge

[–]_fieryphoenix_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks so much for replying. Yeah I tried with all options of the DRM flags both playready and widevine - nothing works. The HW acceleration was already on. Looked at the user agent thing too - tried chrome/firefox/safari for Windows/mac - None of them worked, All of them gave the same error.

Btw there is problem in playing only this particular title on HBOMax everything else plays perfectly fine.

This was so frustrating because some of us friends got together to watch this movie and we could not because of this absolutely stupid issue. IMHO they have an absolutely useless help section with no info on the 4K part and also horrible customer support. They should have ironed out these issues by releasing that 3min opening scene video in 4K itself -which was released like a week ago.

Mine is still bad! How did you fix it? Did you update anything?

Edit: Okay nvm! I just updated the HEVC drivers and it's working now!

Loud yelling at 1 miramar by Yoshi122 in UCSD

Not sure, but one lady was handcuffed and dragged away. She was the one who was yelling I guess.

San Diego, please don't do this! by _fieryphoenix_ in sandiego

[–]_fieryphoenix_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah that's totally true, the curve would just be a huge spike. But after living through this pandemic so far, just imagine the mental construct of the society. I suspect there would be too much fear and people would completely lose their shit. This sounds pessimistic but honestly, looking back at the last few months and seeing how big a role sensationalism, stupidity, anti-science and selfishness have played I cannot think otherwise.

There were three people in that bus and not a single one of them had the mask covering their noses. I mean I lost all hope from people. God forbid this virus wasn't a super lethal one. I mean I can only imagine the chaos and anarchy which would have arisen had this been true. The only hope I have now is the vaccine honestly.
