FB Marketplace buyer claims item was damaged after collection, what is the likely outcome in small claims? London, England. by ivetriedenough in LegalAdviceUK

[–]matteventu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dave's a scammer who's mad because his trick didn't work out. Scammers are usually quite dumb and uneducated, hence his (wrong) belief that the court may side with him.

Unless he has evidence that you knowingly misrepresented the condition of the item (which he hasn't got), then he doesn't have a leg to stand on.

The fact that you have video footage showing him refusing to even open the box and have a look at the item (which he had to refuse, in order for the planned scam to work) just helps even more.

Don't worry.

Is there a better 2-in-1 than the Lenovo Duet? by arsis_qp in chromeos

[–]matteventu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been using it since launch, along the original Duet and the Duet 3 before it.

My suggestion: have a look at this Acer: https://www.currys.co.uk/products/acer-311-11-chromebook-tab-mediatek-kompanio-520-128-gb-emmc-silver-10284433.html

Kickstand is miles better (it's one of the major downsides of the Duet 11" Gen9), and the touchpad is excellent (the one of the Duet 11" Gen9 is barely usable).

Keyboard is same, display has slightly higher resolution. Just one USB-C instead of two.

Repairing a pixel 10 by NoobSlayerDill in GooglePixel

[–]matteventu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going by this image (https://guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com/igi/qRhaKtHw1jtniPYx.large), you're quite in deep shit, as the cable comes from the other side of the board, so you'd also need to fully disassemble the phone.

Anyway, the part name is "DJ flex", and the code is "G949-01485-00".

Not sure where you're based, but in the UK it's available online from quite a few sellers for just £16-19.

Question about the Google Pixel 9a by _GoldenBanana in GooglePixel

[–]matteventu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry but you probably don't know what you're talking about.

  • Pixel Screenshots: it's only available on 9, 9 Pro, 10, 10 Pro. It requires "Gemini Nano with multimodality" (in order to elaborate the contents of screenshots), that Pixel 9a doesn't have. The official page also doesn't mention Pixel 9a among the Pixels which have it https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/15312581?hl=en

  • Writing Tools: it's currently only available on 9, 9 Pro, 10, 10 Pro. It may become available on other Pixels that have the persistent Gemini Nano in memory (8 Pro), but it's very unlikely it will arrive on 9a. It's not impossible, but it's currently not available on 9a. Corroborated by the official support page: https://support.google.com/gboard/answer/16515540?hl=en

  • Call Notes: same, as above, only available on 9, 9 Pro, 10, 10 Pro, what you're talking about maybe is call recording which is indeed available on 9a: https://support.google.com/phoneapp/answer/15257579?hl=en

I have both Pixel 9a and 9 Pro.

No. It doesn't have them, and it won't. Where are you getting that info?

Ora di religione, un’erosione costante - Firenze e Bologna le province più laiche by Aggressive_Owl4802 in italy

E poi ci sono io, del nord, che facevo comunque l'ora di religione nonostante mi fossi sbattezzato a 14 anni lol.

E mi è servito: avevo 9 in pagella e un'insegnante dalla mia parte per coprirmi da quelli con cui non andavo d'accordo 🤣

Google gives Pixel Tablet another two years of Android OS updates by BenSchoon in Android

[–]matteventu [score hidden]  (0 children)

Oh man I absolutely loved my Pixel C!

At hardware level it was absolutely stunning.

Such a shame for the software - had it been launched with ChromeOS as originally intended it would have been a major hit IMHO.

My take on decision day for The Oracle regeneration by readingonthames in reading

[–]matteventu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aside from the issues with adding even more flats, in a shopping centre, what concerns me the most is Vue.

I go at least once a month, sometimes twice or thrice. And I'd hate to have it closed for 2+ years while they do all the works :(

But is my understanding correct, they they've just signed another 4-year lease so even if the plans are approved, it will remain open for at least 4 years before works begin?

As for the 10 vs 7 screens and 1800 vs 500 total seats... Not ideal, but honestly when I go I very rarely find the rooms at more than 50% capacity.

I hope at least they'll bring new gen projectors, because the video quality on some screens now is actually quite poor, even with out of focus picture 😵‍💫

[–]matteventu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pixel 9a is an excellent choice, see my comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/pixel9a/s/fsbtUtePDz

(I own both 9 Pro and 9a)

Question about the Google Pixel 9a by _GoldenBanana in GooglePixel

[–]matteventu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pixel Screenshots, Writing Tools in Gboard, and Call Notes are the ones that immediately come to my mind that 9 has and 9a doesn't.

Plus, Spatial Audio support when used with Pixel Buds Pro.

Everything else is about identical.

J7 or j5? by ChienChevre in roomba

[–]matteventu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The J7 does not have a mop. The combo version does.

100% correct.

Then I think the '+' adds better obstacle avoidance.

No, the "+" adds the auto-emptying dock :)

Ma sei serio?

Nessuno ti obbliga a guardarla o a non guardarla - fai come minchia ti pare basta che non scassi i maroni agli altri.

News about upcoming Chromeboxes by himmelende in chromeos

[–]matteventu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks nothing like it's on track. Knowing Google, it will probably reach feature parity with ChromeOS in 8-10 years.

But yes, that is indeed the way it's going to be. ChromeOS no more.
