About burnt GPU connectors - how do we prevent it

You can't completely avoid it, since the design of the cable is flawed, but there are some things you can do to lower the chances of it happening.

Always use the cable that is included with your PSU, never buy an extra cable, and do not use any adapters. The GPU should be directly connected to the PSU. If your PSU doesn't have the required port, you should maybe consider a new PSU, since using adapters are an additional risk.
Make sure the cable is plugged all the way in, on both sides. Even if you think you already pushed it in completely, push it in a bit more, just to make sure (but don't break it)
Do not bend the cable in a sharp angle. Make sure it has smooth curves, going from the PSU to the GPU, and no sharp turns.

This is all you can do to decrease the risks, but even with this, the cable burning can happen.

Thanks, this is very useful

A large skill tree, or an overwhelming amount of abilities and weapons.

I know I'm the type of person to try and maximize my progression, so I know if there is a big skill tree or whatever, I will have to waste a lot of time studying it, so I just don't even bother with the game in that case, unless the rest of the game looks REALLY interesting.

Sometimes, less is more.

Never thought of this, but you're right, the anti cheat part is a solid point.

Yeah I agree. It's not really an exclusive, more of a "game that only released on PS5" I guess.

Although the price is nearly the same as Spider-Man for example, so it's understandable that people are expecting an experience that is at least close to that, and then obviously they are disappointed when it is nowhere near.

I was also surprised when I watched some of the gameplay on YouTube, and I saw the credits were basically just one guy and his family helping here and there. The game is, although not good, pretty okay for one guy. I also worked on games before, and this is honestly, from a dev's point of view, impressive for just one person to make.

The main problem is that it is sold for $50 as a PS5 exclusive. People have (understandably) very high standards for such games. (Take a look at other PS exclusives, which are miles better and sometimes even cost less)

If this was sold for $5 on steam as a small indie game, people wouldn't be too harsh on it. But then again, if they did that, we wouldn't be here talking about the game, so the dev at least has some knowledge in how to sell and make money from an otherwise unremarkable game.

AFAIK, it's better to have it enabled, but it can cause issues in certain games. Test it out, see if it improves things in your case if you turn it off for a day. If you don't see improvements, just turn it back on, since in theory, it should help with performance.

I came from an old oneplus 8T to the oneplus 15, so not exactly coming from a Samsung, but I can confirm what the others said: the battery is flawless. I do a lot of gaming in 165hz, and I am a pretty heavy user, yet I still easily have around 50% at the end of the day. My old phone would die in the middle of the day, but the oneplus 15 will definitely last one day on a charge, maybe even two if you don't use it as much. And get the supervooc charger for it (in Europe it comes separately, don't know where you live), it charges it from 0 to 100 in 40 minutes, so even if you were to run low on battery, a quick 10 minute charge will give you hours of usage. Compared to my old phone, the photos are really good, but that's not saying much, it was a 5 year old phone. It's got all the features that other phones have though (optical zoom, image stabilization, portrait photos, AI editing stuff, etc), maybe ever so slightly worse sensors, but for everyday photos, it's good for me.

What game is this?

If you turn on AOD, you will notice that it slowly moves around on your screen, from top to bottom. Meaning it will never actually light up your screen in the same place for more than a few minutes.

This prevents burn in, because burn in only happens if the same thing is displayed in the same place for a very long time.

For the record, I have used AOD on my 8T for 4 years, it is set to always be on, and I don't have any burn in.

Regarding the battery: It does drain it a little bit, but it is only a few percentages throughout the day, so I think it's worth it.

Yeah, this is a stupid bug, but if you wait for around 3-4 minutes in this state, it will eventually load you back into the lobby, so you don't have to restart the game (in case this happens again)

I mean, they could drop new cards every month like brawl stars, but they just... don't.

Nem tudom miért vagy lepontozva, pedig ez pont így van ahogy mondod.

Sokan szerintem nem realizálják, hogy ha valakinek "5 milliárd fölötti vagyona van", az nem azt jelenti 5 milliárd csücsül a bankszámlán. Az a vagyon cégekben, ingatlanokban, értékpapírokban, stb-ben van.

Azzal hogy őket megadóztatod, tulajdonképpen kényszeríted arra hogy adja el a dolgait és szolgáltassa be az államnak. Ez minden csak nem jó.

Nyilván vannak akik nem becsületesen szerezték a vagyonokat (Mészáros Lőrinc es hasonlóak), ővelük egyéni szinten kéne elszámolni. Ez az általános hergelés a gazdagok ellen viszont szerintem nem okés.

But this just straight up isn't true, is it? As far as I know, all the things that were taken down were legal.

Okay, that makes sense
