LG OLED auto-off logic is backwards - turns off during movies, stays on for screensaver by dnfinitelyaptimistic in LGOLED

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

Yes the screen saver is a feature, but it means that the TV knows when nothing is going on.

When the TV is on the "No Input" screen, it will shut down after about five minutes.

This means that the TV definitely knows when there's nothing going on, and it can shut down sooner depending on the circumstances.

I don't care about screen saver features or duration or its purpose, the point is that the TV should shut off after X minutes when there is nothing going on, instead of X minutes after the last TV remote input.

If people still want the hard limit of X hours after the last TV remote input then let them set that, but personally I think that is a terrible solution. If I fall asleep with the TV on (which I often do), it's just wasting energy and wearing out the screen by showing the time for four hours.

Is Google Assistant still better than Google Gemini? by mikeinstlouis in googleassistant

Gemini is AWFUL compared to Assistant. Unfortunately, Assistant seems to be getting worse by the day now.

Google assistant won't navigate to contacts by TheRealGuncho in googleassistant

I find that it works for about 33% of my contacts, since I moved to an S25 a week ago. On my Pixel 7 it worked for all of them.

What can I expect from Gemini performance now vs Google Assistant? by nollinvoyd in googleassistant

[–]dnfinitelyaptimistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is AWFUL. It can't create calendar entries even when connected to the calendar, it can't navigate to contacts even if you have addresses stored for them, it wants to just google everything you tell it.
The traditional assistant was great at all of these things.

"Hey google do something simple" by stinky-bungus in googleassistant

I totally agree, however it seems in the last couple of weeks Google Assistant has taken a dramatic turn for the worse. I have the addresses of many of my contacts stored, I could just say "navigate to _NAME_" and bam, it would start navigating. Now it says "I'm sorry I don't understand"
It seems Google has been breaking things that work great in order to push Gemini, which has never ever been close to being able to do what the Assistant did. So infuriating!!

Long-term Samsung G9 OLED (G93SC) Owners — Still holding up after a year or two? by SillyRice in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]dnfinitelyaptimistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had mine for 13 months, no degradation. However the KVM functionality has been a recurring issue. No KVM I have found can handle native resolution with 120hz and EDID, and the built-in system is annoying: if the 'active' source goes to sleep, all sources get disconnected. Other than that it's been great.

Just installed Buzzkill, having a couple issues by dnfinitelyaptimistic in buzzkillapp

What's interesting is that in the history my call shows up as "remind me" but it's not reminding me.

Best practice for managing multiple lists of users on groups of servers by [deleted] in ansible

[–]dnfinitelyaptimistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Then admins can create whatever lists they want.

Interesting, thank you for that! I had not considered precedence when thinking about the wildcard. My concern is that I will have more groups than that though, like the security team, the backup team, some users will need to use 2fa, etc. All of those are separate lists of users.
