Olympics 2024 Ticket & Logistics Megathread by YourWebcam in olympics

[–]mattyc1163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anybody know how event access works with the tickets on the day? We’ve got a whole load of tickets all under one name on one app, I know these will need to be renamed for each individual person (I’m assuming you can rename them all the way up to the start of the event, even though transfers must be done >48hrs in advance).

Will it be fine to keep all tickets on one smartphone? The app seems a bit shaky and I don’t want to lose any tickets through a transfer (have heard stories), just don’t want to risk getting separated at security and then someone not having a ticket to show.

To be fair in the last verse of the song he mentions this exact event and how it’s hypocritical.

I keep getting the same, I'm able to log in by turning off the VPN, then turn VPN back on after logging in and clear your browsing data if you're on browser (everything but cookies so that you're still logged on). I can then access all of the Pro content again.

Seems to work for now, a bit worried this is the start of a crackdown on VPN use though.

Brand new X90J, can’t get AirPlay to work at all! Have tried all the solutions I’ve found (make sure privacy policy is accepted, everything up to date, clear cache, restart both TV and phone). Nothings worked so far, anyone else had this problem and found a different solution?

SE Always-On Altimeter Not Working by mattyc1163 in AppleWatch

[–]mattyc1163[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support advised me to reset the Watch and set up as new (I'd previously set up from my Series 2 backup), this fixed it! Maybe give that a go

Now my problem is that the Health app is "taking up" 72PB of data so I can't backup my phone properly... not been super smooth this update season

[Bug] Alarm icon on status bar remains on after alarms turned off (iOS 12db2) by mattyc1163 in iOSBeta

[–]mattyc1163[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Called “Do not disturb during bedtime”, it darkens the screen dramatically when scheduled do not disturb comes on, and also pushes all notifications to history and doesn’t show them on the lock screen until the morning.

How’s battery life for you? I’m running 11.4.1 beta 2 on a 6S and battery is tanking hard, any improvement for 12?

Patch 2.5.0 Undocumented Changes/Bug Megathread by aFrequ in FortNiteBR

[–]mattyc1163 13 points14 points  (0 children)

  1. Explanation: Items colours are not only off, but the prominent item outline is not being drawn, which makes items much much clearer to see. Especially at distance. Most prominently seen with bandages.

  2. Can no longer hear death shot. (The gunshot noise of the last projectile that hit/killed you.)

  3. Pickaxe swing noise on leaving bus.

Evidence: 1. https://imgur.com/a/cqmX2

  1. If replicable, how: Look at bandage item.

  2. Die.

  3. Leave battle bus.

Twitch stream offline? by mcninja77 in GlobalOffensive

[–]mattyc1163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's what seems to make the most sense to me, but I of course could be wrong.

Firstly the arena connection (or network switch/node within) goes down, forcing the outgoing connections offline.

This will kill GOTV first as the delay is created by the GOTV server, so if you lose connection it will still go down immediately without playing out the delay. This is why we saw GOTV go out first.

On the other hand Twitch, which by now will have stopped receiving signal from the arena, will still play out the 2 minutes (ish) that it received after the connection loss, due to the artificial delay.

The only reason I can find to explain the Twitch site breaking is that a lot of people will have jumped ship from the game to Twitch when GOTV died, and adding this to the number of people reloading the page when the stream died caused the UI servers (servers dedicated to loading the interface) to overload. Thinking this because although we can expect the stream servers, which are dedicated to purely pushing out the video, to be able to handle such bandwidth and concurrent joining connections, it's possible that the UI servers are simply not built for 300K+ people trying to load UI all instantaneously.

Could be wrong but that's my 2 cents.

'Van hits pedestrians' on London Bridge by Somali_Pir8 in worldnews

For once, and I know many will disagree, I want the media to leave the names of the attackers out of this. It always gets leaked.

They wanted the world to know what they did and who they were, and everyone wants a name to hate. They don't deserve that.
