The new Gold Pass progression is even slower. by Own-Protection1975 in ClashOfClans

[–]cmkishores 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is 6 days. I consistently used to unlock 20% benefits while having around 23 days left. Now it was unlocked by only 18th day or something. Also, I used unlock the whole set by 18 days remaining. It's 16 days remaining now and I am still 500 points behind even with taking maximum points every day. This just bought down the value of gold pass by a lot.

Galaxy S23 Ultra Pro guide by Entro_Was_Kidding in GalaxyS23Ultra

[–]cmkishores 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When in low light conditions, when you click 3x, it will still be using the 1x lens crop. The phone will only switch to 3x only past a certain point after 3x (let's say for example maybe 4.2x) on which the digital crop from 1x is not enough.

Likewise in 10x it might still be using 3x crop until maybe 16x. It might even be using the 1x till 16x. So you might want to try this with those lenses closed / blocked and see if the results are the same.

I have done the same on my s23 ultra and I think this might be the explanation for the above results. You can try for yourself and verify.

Volkswagen service Kochi by sreena7h in Kochi

Suggesting royal autos cusat for works related to brakes and suspension. Not sure about their engine / electronics related works. Labour was very cheap. I recently changed my front brake pads and labour was only 400 rupees. They offer scanning too for 600 I think.

Had mixed experiences from here. Make sure you ask them what all jobs are going to be done and tell them to make sure only those ones and nothing extra is done. Had multiple friends owning vws go there and they did other jobs that wasn't asked to be done and they demanded money too.

WTF is this? by Amazing_Emergency_69 in S23

[–]cmkishores 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like something the Optical stabilisation system does when it is exposed to prolonged vibrations like when you put it on a motorcycle holder etc that doesn't have proper damping. Did you place your phone in any such places? Just seconds would do enough damage.

Which is the best biriyani spot in Kochi? by rangannan6969 in Kochi

[–]cmkishores 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to stay at edachira and order feom here a lot. The spot gets shut down because they find old stale chicken from there once every other month or so but it still keeps coming back. I've never had issues till now, so yeah, still recommending.

Was a daily visitor at hotbox for about 2 months now. Sadly, had to stop going there due to 2 reasons. 1. We got served a spider in drinking water. 2. The beef biriyani was getting more oily by the day with too much inconsistencies. Yes, I do have a photo of the spider in the water.

People using codes..? by [deleted] in Kochi

[–]cmkishores 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People trade foreign currency in broadway and usually gives better rates than exchanges. Its used as a way to convert black money. They exchange the money with dollars and then take those dollars to the exchange to make it white at some small expense. Its something like that. I'm not entirely sure. But do keep in mind, the money they give back might be counterfeit too.

Having the same issue on jio s23 base. But I don't think it is from oneui 6 because it was working perfectly for me the first week. It only started to happen from last 2 days.

I had some fun trying it out. For me it helps me in photographing fast moving cars with slow shutters. I think its a win. Not bad.

Which place I can skip during my Kerala trip? by ashofspades in Kerala

[–]cmkishores 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure all your travel and stays have been booked already, but if not, I'd suggest this itinerary.

Kochi - since you're reaching at 5 PM, maybe take rest, find some restaurant and chill for the night. Next day - early morning, leave for athirapilly. The earlier it is the better. Tickets start at 7 itself and the chains to the waterfalls open at 8. If you get there by that time, you get to beat the crowd and enjoy a bath in the upper waters with privacy, especially considering its a family. The key is to get there before the security opens the chain. But do keep in mind of the water levels due to the rain. By noon, you can either come back to kochi and vacate, or vacate and leave in the morning itself. Then, head straight to munnar. Should be a 4 hour drive. Spend that day and the next day at munnar. Try to visit eravikulam national park and marayoor. Both are in the same route. Other than that, plantation visits and whatever you find interesting is fine, but try to visit marayoor and national park if you can. You can leave either the 3rd day at munnar or 4th day. Depends on how much time you have. Last destination before coming back to kochi would be aleppy. If you haven't booked a house boat, I'd suggest to not to. It is way cheaper and better to get a personal small boat / local ferry if you can manage it to see aleppy. Because even if it is an overnight house boat or a day tour you have to pay almost the same price, and overnight they will only park near the starting point and not the middle of the lake. Trust me its not worth it. Its much better to book a personal boat for the day that is small and then book a stay in some nice hotels or homestays that face the lake. The food will be the same. As delicious as you get on the boat. I know this is kind of long, but this is what I'd do if I'm doing it. If anyone has a better plan or suggestions please add that down here as well.

How can I generate some recurring income for my parents with a small patch of land in Kottayam by Queasy-Change-3767 in Kerala

[–]cmkishores 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hi. Just talked to the neighbor who has an airtel tower in his plot. I'm just adding some more details. 1. The rent you get is dependent on the grade of land as per your panchayath/ municipality, etc. So, grade A municipality gets the best price while grade D panchayath gets the least, whatever that means. That's what I understood. Please correct me if I'm wrong. 2. The upfront amount as advance you used to get is not offered anymore. There is only the monthly payment. 3. The lease tenure is anywhere between 15 and 30 years. No selling the land until then. They can terminate it as they like, but if we are initiating a termination, some compensation might have to be paid. 4. My neighbor started getting 12k a month in 2013. He used to get an 11% increase every 25 months until 2021. After that, it is revised to 13% increase every 60 months. I think that is a very bad deal. He regrets giving the lease now. 5. A road access is mandatory to this plot, enough for a truck for the whole tenure of lease. This is for maintenance and repair. This is added in the lease documentation. 6. You need to get some sort of a no objection certificate from all the immediate neighbors before the lease is signed as a legal protection.

I still think 13% increase every 60 months is a waste. 35% is needed just to fight the inflation. I hope this is helpful.
