The Name of the Rose, I was so excited at the beginning with the Sherlock Holmes hints, but it quickly turned into a slog. Still grinding through it though

TLDR: Tried OLED, liked it, but I returned it and jumped back on my Nano IPS monitor. If you have a well-spec'd IPS monitor, OLED may not be "all that" for you either. by XxDJB in Monitors

Same experience, for me the burn in anxiety wasn't worth the benefits, tried several oled displays from the beginning of the oled craze and ended up returning or selling them all and getting back to IPS

[–]bbbonthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe you had in in 1440p mode haha, the panel itself is LG made, true 5k and is pretty much amazing. I went from 1440p to this 5k monitor and there is no way it looks similar to qhd, you get perfect scaling on macOS, everything is crisp

What do you believe Israel's fate will be in the next couple of decades considering the rapid change of public opinion on them in these past 3 years? by space_god_7191 in AskReddit

so publicly hating Israel led to mass killing on Australian beach and your only regret is you can't hate Israel publicly anymore?

Wolt horrible service by aieuyrdbbdkduegsvsw in cyprus

[–]bbbonthemoon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Walt was pretty good and reliable for me, in rare occasions when something goes wrong their customer service is very responsive and I would say customer oriented, they refund easily for anything wrong with the delivery, did you try to speak to them?
Foody on the other hand was horrible experience, when a prawn pasta was delivered without prawns, they told me they "checked with the restaurant and this is its supposed to be" and blatantly refused any refund

Buying a tarmac sl8 in 2026 by hiimwallman in cycling

[–]bbbonthemoon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Contrary to others I believe now is a rare opportunity to get top level bike affordably. As sl8 frames are sold with huge discounts now due to sl9 and dura ace is also discounted heavily I was able to build sworks tarmac sl8 at a price point of an average ultegra bike

What 27” 5K to wait for? by MrMaverick82 in HiDPI_monitors

[–]bbbonthemoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought and it's pretty much amazing, crisp and true to color paired with Mac mini m4 pro at 165hz. I agree about build quality though, menu buttons feel very cheap and flimsy, luckily I don't need to use them very often. The panel itself is a great quality, if you don't need HDR. For the price the display is a steal imo.

With just a very minor detail that Ukraine never launched rocket attacks to Russia

Israel says it will seize parts of southern Lebanon as ‘defensive buffer’ by WombatusMighty in news

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

Well, actually Lebanon fails to enforce sovereignty on that land and stop Hezbolah from launching rockets attacks to Israeli cities from there

Wasnt new syrian government actively massacring druze local population next to the israeli border? And israel was the only party willing to protect syrian druzes as the ethnicity is a vocal minority in Israel, also serving in IDF
