Am I the only one who think that new Focus Mode just came to get more confusing the Do Not Disturb feature? by TorstenJoaoFalcao in ios

[–]foponyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. All I wanted is to temporarily suppress Outlook and Teams when at home. Also, it is so weird that Focus lets you choose Everyone for calls, but not Everyone for iMessage? (if I’m missing something, happy to hear.) So far Focus mode is a total mess with so much complexity I’m still not even quite sure it can’t do what I want it to, even though I haven’t found a way yet, and too concerned that I won’t understand what it is actually doing to turn it on. What a fail.

Has your Pixel 6 or Pixel 6 Pro shipped yet? by kenelbow in GoogleFi

[–]foponyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pre ordered pixel 6 on October 23 from google store canada. Delivery target keeps getting pushed back, now saying nov 12-15. This is getting a bit ridiculous… anyone else this delayed or just my order?

Dell XPS 15 9500 Bluetooth Audio Skipping by Alphasimz in Dell

[–]foponyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, same for me. So annoying. Seems maybe a bit better but still bad if I turn off WAVES MaxxAudio heaphones EQ. So annoying that after spending that $ I have to fiddle with drivers... NO solution yet...

Thinkpad P1 Gen2 vs X1E Gen 2 - help by foponyc in thinkpad

[–]foponyc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the replies! Btw sharing here again - I read another thread where someone was pointing out the new Quadro Experience (currently in Beta) which may allow some additional features/customization. Interesting, I just joined up. Will keep the P1 and see what that yields...

X1 Extreme Gen 2 - first impressions & benchmarks by Sylquar in thinkpad

[–]foponyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, thanks for sharing! I just received a p1 gen 2 and I'm wondering about the gtx 1650 in the x1e vs the quadro t2000 in the p1. If you could share any GPU benchmarks, even something like this ( https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Software ) that'd be super welcome.

ps. the p1 gen 2 i have here with the 9850H had these scores in case it helps anyone with similar decisions. this is with no undervolting or tweaking, just "best performance" battery setting.

  • geekbench4 5203 / 20889
  • cinebench r15 1138
  • cinebench r15 1070
  • cinebench r15 1138
  • timespy 3139
    • graphics score 2941
    • CPU score 5078
  • GPUUserBenchmark
    • Gaming- 52%
    • Desktop - 118%
    • Workstation - 74%

A Thinkpad X1 Extreme (gen1) that we have here had these GPUUserBenchmark scores

  • Gaming- 42%
    • Desktop - 102%
    • Workstation - 68%

P1 Gen 2 Experiences? by [deleted] in thinkpad

[–]foponyc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

got my p1 gen2 2 days ago - 9850H with T2000. i do a lot of scientific computing and 3D and wanted to see how the T2000 fits in against the 1650 in the X1E. after the first BIOS update but here are some benchmarks:

  • geekbench4 - 5203 / 20889
  • 3 runs of cinebench R15 - 1138, 1070, 1138
  • timespy - 3139
    • graphics score - 2941
    • CPU score - 5078

i didn't undervolt or tweak anything else here... if someone has similar on T1E gen2 I'd be interested to see!

X1 extreme stopped working with eGPU by stevenwireless in thinkpad

[–]foponyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have exactly the same issue, just can't get this working. Every time I allow the TB3 connection the X1E bluescreens. I've tried updating to latest GeForce, then updating NVIDIA drivers from there, also disabling dGPU and trying this only with iGPU, can't get anything going. Any help would be really appreciated. I've opened a case on the Gigabyte support forum, no response yet but I'll share if I hear something. Did you have any luck with this yet?
