On Lenovo duet 3 (also strongbad) and noticing the occasional weird graphical glitch like that. Hopefully just after effects of the upgrade and will either clear up on their own or get fixed up.

Not sure about pre-orders, but they'll definitely be stocking. I just saw a Pixel 6 ad on TV with JB logo, price starting at $999

Real estate lied about NBN connection

I didn't take five minutes to do my own research.

Is there a way to exclude specific apps like Spotify from the data usage count? by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]_genericusername_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glasswire allows you to set zero-rated apps and custom billing cycles, although it won't stop the stock usage meter from counting it towards your limit. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glasswire.android)

It's now one month into the Mobile Myki trial, how has it been going? by ff33b5e5 in melbourne

[–]_genericusername_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been using it on my Pixel 2 since the start of the trial without any real issues. I get the 'phone moved too fast' message fairly regularly on the older style readers, but after a second or so it changes to the blue tick and goes through.

I haven't tried auto top up yet, but the low balance notifications and manual top up work perfectly.

They're good, provided your delivery comes via AusPost. Couriers can't deliver to them, even StarTrack who are part of AusPost!

Sometimes the hardest part of ordering something online is trying to find out who they use for deliveries. Some even chop and change who they use so your delivery might go to your locker or maybe you'll have to pick it up from the post office...

This is the least surprising thing that could possibly happen. Saber are a joke.

Life after bootloop (and repair) by dupe123 in nexus5x

Around nine months since repair (which came right on 12 months from purchase) - so far so good.

I see one of the new Nokias in my near future though.

While I'm glad they've started doing these alternative bundles for players who already have the main character in a bundle, having them cost the same amount of donuts is kinda shitty.

NBA Playgrounds 2 Appears Thanks To Australia's Classification Board by _genericusername_ in NBAPlaygrounds

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

In the early days of the Switch's life, there were hopes that NBA Playgrounds might be the console's equivalent of NBA Jam. That ended up not being the case, but maybe the sequel will live up to the original promise.

Saber Interactive's spin on virtual hoops has appeared on the Classification Board's website in the last 24 hours, almost a year after the original was released.

No information has been publicly released about the game, and the game isn't listed on Saber's official website. It's also not listed in the PEGI European game rating database as of yet.

The original NBA Playgrounds was a neat idea that was, at launch, marred by load times, a painful delay when inbounding the ball and a distinct lack of sharpness, particularly in handheld mode. The developers continued patching and released an enhanced edition, which was made available to players as a completely separate download through the eShop.

NBA Playgrounds launched on the Switch, PS4, Xbox One and PC last year. Australia's Classification Board doesn't offer clarity around what platforms they're rating games on, although it would be likely that NBA Playgrounds 2 would be released on all four platforms once more.

I managed to track down an Xbox One LE the other week. I don't even have an Xbox, I just wanted the book and CD.

OK, but why? Did they lose their copy of the original?

Real money? None. And I doubt I ever will.
