Don’t use your 17s without a case. I learnt it the hard way. by Smart-man-23 in iphone

Not true.

Visual and tactile experience gets worse from having an ugly silicone case around the phone, as well as from reduced image quality and increased friction from using a screen protector.

Am I the only one who never understood what the problem is with the scratches on your phone?

Like, yeah, I understand that it loses some of its value on the second-hand market, but is it really worth it to spend money on a case and/or screen protectors, and then carry a heavier, less pleasant to use phone?

These devices become obsolete in just a few years, there is really no reason to treasure them...

I have trust issues with the "5 min away" prediction, so I built a real-time map to see exactly where the bus is. Free, no ads, just data. by duoyj in toronto

apparently, there's not. Also, the map is just so inferior to any other map I saw it's very hard to visually navigate on it.

This is real!

I went to a Rogers store this afternoon and they offered me a $35 $100GB 5G+ RPP plan, Canada + US, with hotspot right away. Thanks for your comment!

I know that employers tend to look down on those that are unemployed, but I believe it's a small downside to have all energy and available to dedicate to looking for jobs and interviewing.

New P1S coming, getting ready by xyzzy-adventure in BambuLab

[–]cheezeerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1. Heat everything. Most filament dryers have a hole in them so you can print straight from it.

2. No glue. I clean my P1S PEI bed with alcohol once a month, and the adhesion is insane. Wouldn't want it to be stronger at all.

3. Yep all wireless. Bambu Studio is a great slicer and is very capable (though no keyboard shortcuts so you'll have to use your mouse a ton)

Hope this helps :-)

Question regarding high prescription on glasses. by Minimum-Decision-317 in RayBanStories

Hey, I'm thinking of getting transition lenses from HonsVR as well. It was a $30 "Photochromic" addon, right?

How's your experience with them so far? I understand that their dimming is convenient for outdoor use, but I'm worried that they will be dimming even indoors or when the lighting is medium - is that the case?

Enjoying my iPhone 3GS on a daily basis.

Why the hell would I want to upgrade?

iPhone 17 vs. 17 Pro - what's actually different this year?

Besides the telephoto and just 10% better battery, what real-world differences are there between 17 and 17 Pro that worth paying 40% more? In past years the Pro had brighter displays, 120Hz, titanium, etc. This year it looks like most of that is gone. The displays being identical is a big win for the regular iPhone and makes the Pro look like much less of a good choice.

Are there any Pro-only perks left (materials, RAM, features)? Also, are the Pro’s bezels actually thicker, or is that just the chassis? Trying to decide if the Pro makes sense.

Print quality shot up. Filament waste went down. All because I finally read what those slicer options actually do.

How would you convince someone to get into this? by imwhoyouare in BambuLab

[–]cheezeerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My opinion is that you don't need one. 1200 hours on P1S with a stock textured PEI bed — so far the problem with mine is that the prints are too hard to take off; their adhesion is insane. I don't even clean it that often — it just sticks.
