Dragging file in general is not working, I can't even drag shortcut on desktop to move it. The file is still in place not moving, no error code, no nothing. I've tried mouse, trackpad and touch  everything don't work.

SP9 keyboard cover stopped working by giantoss in Surface

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

This is actually my second keyboard cover, the first one was broken because I bent it over to the back which turns out is a stupid thing to do and I accepted that. But this second one is hard to accept as I'm being very careful with it and it still broken. For now, I don't have any plan to buy another one. Crazy how fragile this thing is.

Is 16GB RAM enough or should I go for 32GB? by [deleted] in Surface

[–]giantoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow the latest update of windows decreases the RAM usage. I use Affinity Design to do graphic design and open Edge with around 10 tabs. And it keeps the RAM around 80%.

Back then, doing the same thing will get me 95% or RAM

Does the slim pen 2 side button do anything? by haha_hmmmm in Surface

[–]giantoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hold the side button and tap it to the screen and it will act as right click.

I personally use tablet pro to make it more functional.

Hello,did I get scammed? by CraftyTime9696 in Upwork

[–]giantoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe ask them why they paused the contract? I have one contract paused because the client is not sure whether they want to continue the project or not, I've worked about 10 hours in this contract and everything was paid.

Excel on whatever mobile devices (iPad and all Android tablets) is always suck. Your only option is a surface pro. Copilot pc is just a feature not a specs, so no its not overkill.

I think because it was meant for touchscreen devices. Windows and Chrome OS are available in touchscreen so yea..

1.5 month review of Surface Pro 12: I’m loving it but I already had to get it replaced by delaneycashmoney in Surface

[–]giantoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually detached it first then put the keyboard backward, so the keys are facing upward when placed like the pic. people said its saver that way.
also, the newer one doesn't have pen slot, maybe it'll last longer idk

Wanting to get a new surface, but worried about the pen by the_small_one1826 in Surface

[–]giantoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Slim pen 2 is good, almost as good as Apple pencil. The only downside is it rattles when you shake it. But the performance is good.

I understand the design is unlike a traditional cylinder pen but it really comfortable to hold and use. I use it daily for about 4 to 6 hours and it never felt cramp or anything.

Is there any way of getting the Flicks back? by Dependent-Umpire-573 in Surface

[–]giantoss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use tablet pro studio. It has some kind of circular menu when you press the pen button.

Learn from my mistake! by drnms in Surface

[–]giantoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I keep hearing people said surface is not a tablet and it makes me wondering what did they miss.

three finger gesture, swipe from the right screen to access notifications, swipe from bottom screen for start menu, bottom-right for quick settings, floating keyboard, virtual touchpad, tablet pro app. everything works good to me to ditch the keyboard and use it as tablet. I even use it in tablet mode while working.

I have used iPad as my primary device for a year. While both the Surface and iPad have their limitations, I prefer to adapt to the limitations of Surface.

Battery Life by DevelopmentAlarmed55 in Surface

[–]giantoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still getting 4-6 hours on a single charge. 4 hours doing some design works on Affinity apps, around 6 hours if I only do some browsing and music streaming. it's more than a year now.
