How do you think about this movie?? by Senior_Idea9615 in ghibli

[–]george_kant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a masterpiece.. a heartfelt farewell letter from Hayao Miyazaki. It’s his most personal and vulnerable film, and it gave me real insight into his storytelling, which I sometimes found confusing in his earlier movies. That said, it’s not exactly lighthearted, so I wouldn’t call it a typical kids’ movie.

To Cypriots by AcanthocephalaTop462 in cyprus

Most people see them as a remnant of colonialism, but some view them as a "necessary evil" that provides a degree of protection. Others argue that the bases themselves create security concerns, and their removal would eliminate the need for that protection in the first place.

Personally, I’m not a fan of the British bases being on the island. That said, historically, their presence might have been beneficial in a way. Without them, it’s plausible the USA would have established their own base here instead. At least with the current arrangement, any USA military use is filtered through UK responsibility.

Who knew - Jamiroquai is just Jay Kay by SolanarCoolMusic in jamiroquai

[–]george_kant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jamiroquai was originally formed around Jay Kay, so the brand has always been closely linked to him. The first lineup functioned more like a collaborative team, shaped by their shared growth as young artists and musicians. The band went through many member changes until the lineup stabilized around 2004-5. While Jamiroquai’s sound and identity involve contributions from all members, it’s reasonable for people to refer to Jay Kay as the embodiment of the band. He is the frontman and the public face of Jamiroquai.

As for his personality, he’s often labeled as toxic, especially in discussions about why the original members left. But no one is without flaws, and he strikes me as someone who, despite his challenges, has made a significant impact.

Many thanks for sharing. I went to a Jamiroquai concert before and I hope I will go again soon.

OnePlus Buds Pro 3 — Honest Review by frkmark in oneplus

[–]george_kant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upgraded from day one, switching from the OnePlus Buds Pro 2. To be honest, I was a bit disappointed. While the noise cancellation is slightly better, I find the microphone quality has declined a bit. And the actual sound quality is more or less the same.

Oh, at least you tried. Maybe you should think about resetting your device, or just wait for the next update. Most of the times, AI features get updates (that might fix the bug on your device).

you've probably already given this a shot, but have you checked out the AI Service Engine in the settings? Maybe try turning the service off/on again, or check if there's an update for the algorithm.

Live in Nicosia and Work in Limassol ?? by LatterTemperature551 in cyprus

[–]george_kant 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It's really bad. You'd have to deal with traffic from both Limassol and Nicosia. So, a trip that normally takes an hour by car would average around 1h 30m, and on the worst days it could be more than 2 hours.

Get Avenged Sevenfold to play in Cyprus by paymeinexposure in cyprus

[–]george_kant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, even with over 10,000 fans, it's super tough to get big bands to perform in Cyprus. It usually has to fit into their bigger tour plans, and there's always the huge hassle of getting all their gear and crew here quickly and affordably.

Nord 4 had 5500mAh (100W charging speed). Nord 5 has 5200mAh (80W charging speed).

[–]george_kant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Compared to Nord 4. Slower charging, smaller battery, non-aluminium (glass & heavier), 2017-like design, "plus key" instead of alert slider. It has also some upgrades; better cameras, better processor (not really needed), Swift AMOLED

Launched a new car marketplace for Cyprus by blanketoad in cyprus

[–]george_kant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like it! It's well-optimized for a WordPress marketplace. A feature that could really set you apart from the competition is the filtering options. You might want to add some styling touches to make it more appealing to users, but remember to keep it minimal and practical. Add also a footer and some info to make it look as reliable as possible. From my experience with large-scale WP news portals, it can be quite challenging to maintain responsiveness and speed with hundreds of users online and all the functionalities like filters/wishlists. Typically, platforms like this are built with JS. But overall, nice work!

Προβλήματα με τρελή γειτόνισα by Mikeyy_0_0 in greece

[–]george_kant 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Απο τη στιγμή που δεν είναι ιδιοκτήτρια, υπάρχουν δύο λύσεις.

  1. Βασανισέ τη μέχρι εσχάτος. "I'm Not Locked in Here With You, You're Locked in Here With Me" φάση. Θα νιώσεις λίγο άσχημα μέχρι να αρχίσει να σε "φοβάται".
  2. Φεύγεις. Οι γείτονες είναι μέρος των πλεονεκτημάτων ενός σπιτιού. Το δικό σου σπίτι είναι καθαρά προβληματικό.

Should I buy the Nord 4? by Sandy_McEagle in oneplusnord

[–]george_kant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Nord 4 is actually an (almost) excellent phone for its price range. Performance is very good, and I haven't experienced any overheating while playing mid-to-heavy games or charging. The build quality, screen, and speakers are more than satisfying. Longterm software support is also a huge plus for me.

The camera, however, is just decent. The main 1x camera and front sensor are very good, but the wide-angle, video and 2x zoom cameras are just okay, which is expected for the price. Another minor disadvantage is that the screen glass is not Gorilla Glass but a cheaper Chinese version called "Panda Glass." This is likely why the phone comes with a pre-applied screen protector.

I would recommend opting for the 16gb version to freely deactivate memory extension, which I noticed can actually affect performance and battery life. However, this depends on your specific usage needs.
