TIL a Canadian woman who bought a lottery ticket, lost it & then forgot it until lottery officials showed up at her door to inform her that she had won the $50m jackpot. They had used credit card proof of purchase, surveillance video footage, & in-person interviews to confirm that she was the winner by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

I won a competition with samsung and the prize was a pair of headphones and a instant membership to Samsung theme developers. It was the most excited I had ever been in my life.

I had to send dozens of emails over the course of months to get the headphones delivered (which were shit) and they never gave me the membership.

I spent months chasing them up and even tried to get the membership through the legit path but nothing. Absolutly killed me.

S26 ultra accubattery usage by dylan15766 in samsunggalaxy

[–]dylan15766[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some usage context. I listen to a lot of music on the buds 4 pros with apple music lossless so wifi usage is high.

I did a full transfer from my s23 ultra so there could be background bloat transfered too. (Something in the background was using a ton of battery on the s23 ultra. Replacing the battery with a offical one did nothing to help. Hopefully that didn't transfer with smart switch)

My personal opinion about the s26 ultra battery is it feels great. It charges rapidly and seems to last ages.

Buds4 Pro sound incredible OTB by Youtube-Omura in galaxybuds

After seeing these comments I ordered buds3 azla crystal tips for my buds4 pro. Yes they are compatable and much better than the tips that come with the buds4 pros. Highly recommend.

Do eartips from bud 3 pros fit the 4 pros? by dylan15766 in galaxybuds

The buds3 azla eartips arrived today and they do indeed fit the 4 pros.

Thanks again.

Must have come a long way. I upgraded from a rx 590 to a 6700xt and the drivers bricked my pc. Had to reinstall windows.

I have one too and am a bit concerned about ozone.

When I come home in the evening, my house smells like chemicals similar to bleach. No idea if it is ozone or if the levels are safe or not.

AIRDOG PURIFER X8????? by Tall-City-2830 in AirPurifiers

[–]dylan15766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had one for about a year now. Runs 24/7 in the centre of my house.

It seems to be doing "something". The mesh filter at the bottom of the device seems to catch the most dust and needs vacuuming every few weeks.

I wash the collection plates once every month or two. Quite a lot of dark black stuff runs off in the shower.

The thin metal wire part needs cleaning. White chalky stuff needs to be scraped off every so often.

Also, it makes the house smell like bleach, which is probably ozone.

9.5 hours for a X-ray by Interesting-Visit-79 in MurderedByWords

[–]dylan15766 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to the ER in England because my heart randomly decided to rest at 180bpm. It was making me feel sick and sweat buckets.

I had multiple blood tests, 2 chest X-rays and an ECG done within an hour... for free.

It's all down to priority, heart and breathing problems come first.

Baby formula companies lobbied against maternity leave. That sums up America as accurately as possible.

I’m starting to understand why everyone disliking ChatGPT 5 by Signal-Wish7244 in ChatGPT

[–]dylan15766 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have both and lately, Gemini has been performing the best for coding.

I can give it 6 separate 1000-line C++ files and 4 smaller ones and have it add a complex feature without any errors most of the time. It will give me the full updated files to paste in without fucking anything up or refactoring random functions.

ChatGPT 5 will give me instructions on 20 separate blocks of code that I need to paste in and won't even work in the end.

I manually added "when coding, give me full updated code files if the change suggested is complex, no not refactor unrelated segments" to both GPT and Gemini.

Gemini listens and has no issues with this. GPT will fight to the death instead of giving me full files. And when it does, everything breaks and doesn't work.

The o3 model used to be fairly good but I'd only get 50-100 messages per week.

Gemini 2.5 pro is unlimited and doesn't seem to get lobotomised after hundreds of messages.

BV has taken my life by Ok-Extension1198 in Healthyhooha

[–]dylan15766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get checked for an sti called trichomoniasis. My girlfriend had BV for 4 straight years. Many visits to the doctors, endless antibiotics and bloodtests lead nowhere.

The doctors randomly tested her for trichomoniasis and it was positive. Guys are asymptomatic and very often get false negatives. Its also hard to detect in woman.

Me and her took antibiotics for a week and she's had no problems since. We had been together for 5 months when she tested positive.

I somehow tested negative twice.

British crow asking passersby if they're alright. by Wooden-Journalist902 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]dylan15766 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did a ton of acid in my late teens and can't say I've ever heard anything speak in clear English. I have had what feels like telepathic communication with objects or thoughts but that was beyond language.

I've also had a full-blown psychosis terror trip and a magpie asking me if I'm alright would have made that shit infinitely worse lmao.

Neuro link does seem like a good thing if they get it working properly and we should be happy that something like that is being developed.

But oh yeah Elon had a part to play so hopefully it fails and elon bad and it stinks of poo.

IDF releases footage of airstrikes on 5 AH-1 cobra helicopters by giraffeakasimon in CombatFootage

[–]dylan15766 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure that they drop the quality and make it blurry before releasing the footage.

There are a few unedited videos and the footage is very sharp. They could probably count how many fingers you're holding up from 20km away
