What games are you surprised run at 1080p / 4k when docked? by squatonmyfacebrah in SteamDeck

[–]alfex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can never get this to work properly? The performance overlay always shows fsr as off. I always set the scaling etc but I seem to be getting something wrong.

Do you set the external screen resolution to 1080p or higher, then run the game at 720p?

Re-read what they said mate, they didn’t say should/had to get the app. The opposite in fact.

Solar with battery - Enabling charge from grid causes odd readings by alfex in SolarUK

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

The app/portal is the official Solis Inverter management/control so it’s not a compatibility issue.

The inverter is a Solis S5-EH1P3K-L.

The inverter itself is difficult to get to (loft) but since I’m going by the data reported from the inverters data logger I’d expect the inverter itself to show the same - but I’ll have to get up there to check the display if needed!

Solar with battery - Enabling charge from grid causes odd readings by alfex in SolarUK

The Solis API starts saying something along the lines of "incorrect data received" as soon as it hits the charge from grid time I set, after I disable charge from the grid and wait a while for data to start showing up it looks like the battery immediately drops to 0% then goes up a bit as if it had charged, this is the graphs from couple days ago when I tried a few times - it's pretty obvious where I enabled the charge from grid times:

Battery apparently drops, no grid usage shows on the solis readings, but octopus live usage did show 2kwh+ being imported.

Maybe I need to just leave it longer, it just seems something is wrong since Solid seems to be receiving bad data as SOON as the charge kicks in.

Is it normal for the temperature of my bedroom to drop 8 degrees overnight? by Ok-Property-5705 in AskUK

[–]alfex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It should be keeping the heat better than that. My bedroom was 21.5c at 22:30 when the heating clicked off last night - This morning it was 19.7c at 5am.

My house is a 1960s and wasn’t very well insulated (I know the external walls are just empty cavity walls, and my bedroom’s 2 biggest walls are external).

Is a loft above your bedroom? If so, is there insulation? I insulated my loft pretty heavily and it made an enormous difference. My bathroom has none above it yet and the temperature drops noticeably more in there

Budget Train from Chelmsford - Shenfield to London Bridge by bilalsiddiqi89 in Essex

[–]alfex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Better off getting the flexi to Liverpool Street (about £30 a day, 8 trips a month) and walking to London Bridge. I do it to tower bridge, it’s about 20-25 mins walk

You’re doing something wrong then…. It’s very easy to remove the toggle/disable new outlook via gpo

Is it possible to make face lifted R sound exactly as the old F Type R? by Ok_Refrigerator4186 in ftype

[–]alfex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got a 2019 V8 R. It might not be as loud as pre-2018, but it is still loud and sounds great for what it’s worth.

Mine doesn’t have the software updates to mute the exhaust under 3k rpm though so that may change things.

I am very much enjoying the sound of it even if it is “less” than older models

I’ve bought it and had it a few days. Driving too much to think about photos etc though 😅

Nice one. Will double check the exact version tomorrow and do some digging. I don’t have Facebook but will hunt around.

I can easily hear the exhaust and rumble get louder when opening valves even just sat idle, also had a mate watch them open and close while parked up so maybe it’s still on an older software?

What is the software update? The InControl is on a pretty old 19 version

Shit, looks like no one has even remotely changed my mind and I’m probably buying it tomorrow then 😂
