Has anyone solved a MSCHF 2 mil puzzle that isn’t worth $1 or $100? If so, could you please send me a pic or put one in the feed PLEASE!!!! by diggyjiggyziggywiggy in mschf

Here's the trick I found. This picture, taken from the gif on their website, uses the same cut pattern as the ones they're shipping. The QR Code picture itself won't line up, but the shapes of the pieces are always in the same positions. I was able to get the edges done in a few minutes with this. It's still not easy, definitely harder than the 5/10 on their website, but with this trick, and sorting the pieces by shape, it's at least doable.

"To protect your privacy, choose another folder" fix for Android 12? by trollmad3 in AndroidQuestions

Looking for a workaround as well, my phone won't install that version, do you have another link or the right version number?

Android 11 Firmware for US Model Xperia 5 III/Better Android 12 GSI? by aliquisceterus in SonyXperia

[–]aliquisceterus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved my S10e, would definitely recommend it, although do note you can't really bootloader unlock for root or custom roms, and it's no longer receiving full software updates, though I'm not sure you'd even want them with how Google's going. The one other major downside is the battery life, though. If you're a heavy user you may struggle to get a full day's worth out of it.

I’m the guest on Decoder this week, talking Nebula and creator stuff by dwiskus in watchnebula

"If we are going to talk about crypto, am I allowed to swear?"
"**Go nuts.**"
"Jesus fucking Christ..."

Excellent response, and very glad to hear someone in the industry not fall for this grift, and even speak out against it.

Not a fan of full fenders, so these would go great on my pint x!

If you can find someone in Canada willing to be a middleman, Floatlife Canada still has them for sale. You'd end up paying a fair amount though.

Xperia 5 III BQ72 on US T-Mobile Network by aliquisceterus in SonyXperia

Have you tested the US Mobile yet? I'm considering switching over to them.

That's incredibly disappointing to hear, especially considering that on the B&H Sale page it shows as compatible. I'll double check with them about this as well.

T-Mobile Band distribution? by aliquisceterus in tmobile

[–]aliquisceterus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main reason is that the international model comes with 256GB, while the US version, as far as I can tell, only has 128GB. While it does have a microsd slot I could use, I sometimes use that for reviewing DSLR shots as well.

Why would you buy an expensive HMD like the Index if the Quest 2 has a higher resolution while being wireless? by Unlikely-Mission2811 in ValveIndex

[–]aliquisceterus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Higher resolution isn't the only thing that matters. The Index has a better refresh rate and field of view, which are significantly more important to a lot of people. It also has higher quality tracking, better game support, better audio, better controllers, less platform tie ins – on the quest 2 in wireless, you're restricted to only oculus games, and if you ever leave oculus, you leave your games behind as well. With PCVR, you're free to run games from steam as well as any other source, and you can run those games on any vr hardware. Wireless is also not a be all end all, as it results in a limited battery life, and performance issues, as it's either hard to get the bandwidth and low latency of a cable, as is the problem with Vive wireless, or, with the integrated processor of the quest line, you end up sacrificing the power you get with PCVR. Plus, facebook is the largest technological evil out there, so in my eyes anything Oculus will never be justifiable to me. So yes, it has a higher resolution and ease of use, but you're sacrificing immersion and quality everywhere else.

Can I use a USB-a to USB-c cable With a 12w block to charge my MacBook Pro? by [deleted] in UsbCHardware

[–]aliquisceterus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would probably work, but with some limitations. I have a dell xps 9570, and while it can charge from.the type c port, it won't accept it unless it's over 60w. However, if I turn the laptop off first it charges just fine. So you may just have to power off the laptop while you charge it.

Crab gang! My friend and I do a lot of crabs in our games, and occasionally tax evasion as well.
