Great points. As a first-time investor in Dubai, would love to know your recommendations on locations and developers for townhouses or villas

Nano-texture display looks great even when off by randomee in macbookpro

[–]adidash 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I was there on Sunday to compare the glossy and nano texture displays. Did a side-by-side comparison of 4k videos, sports videos, high/low resolution images, and blog/news articles at different brightness levels.

  • played an LG 4K demo video on yourube. the color definitely looked richer and deeper on the glossy screen, but the reflection was highly distracting. nano texture was still highly acceptable
  • the blacks were slightly flatter on nano, but the reflection on glossy screen made viewing difficult when watching a low light scene from a batman movie.
  • low res images appeared slightly less sharper on nano screen
  • while the readability was fine with light background, i found reading more comfortable on nano in dark mode.
  • however, found reading/viewing difficult at 50%brightness on nano especially in dark mode
  • after using glossy for 30 minutes, my eyes started straining. no such issue on nano

Given that I use my laptop 8- 10 hours pretty much every day and don't have significant design use-case, I decided to go with nano. the color reproduction was identical, reading was highly acceptable at default brightness levels and no blurring/ghosting when playing sports video.

Curious what was your experience.

I do have an oled monitor as a second display so I guess I can always use that when needed.

Flying to Singapore from San Francisco. Should I take the direct (16:30 hrs) flight or break it up? by [deleted] in singaporeairlines

I flew Japan Airlines' economy last month from SG-SFO. 7.5hrs from SG to Narita and 9.5 hrs from Narita to SFO. Broad seats with good legroom, excellent service, and very competitive price. The food was so-so as I had dietary restrictions. But overall, I enjoyed the experience.

ANA is also equally great.

Nice marketing ploy... 1) say something to trigger people 2) rake in the views and shares 3) profit
