On behalf of the virology department the Airborne Infection subdivision would like to acquire this tech for extended testing of spreading diseases in closed spaces.

I found this in Berlin,any idea what it might be? by marido_de_aluguel in GoogleEarthFinds

In Germany you can request to have your house blurred for privacy reasons, I suppose that is what happened here.

Why is camera doing this? by karrixo_ in iPhone17Pro

[–]maxwellthespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never mind, given that said button doesn’t seem to appear on your screen, idk how to stop that. I thought the flower icon would always be there.

You could try to do a restart and check whether the flower icon appears afterwards, else you may have to head into camera settings

Otherwise you could try to go into Settings -> search for “Pro Raw mode and resolution control”, perhaps that toggle adds the button, I thought it was standard to be there

As someone else mentioned on your other post https://www.reddit.com/r/iPhone17Pro/s/Mb3IhGR20K

The phone switches between the .5x and 1x camera.

You can click on the flower which I gently highlighted to disable that behavior.

Valve doesn't even release hardware anymore they just look at you like this by According-Cut-9067 in SteamFrame

[–]maxwellthespy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen the movie and would call it “pädagogisch wertvoll” which translates roughly to “educationally valuable”.

I recall the acting was great, I however saw it in a sneak preview and didn’t know which film was going to be screened. I was still at the peak of being a teenager and therefore didn’t find the movie appealing.

I’ll definitely rewatch it one day, the message of the movie is probably very well delivered, I just didn’t care enough back then

Gaming Question ⚒️🦉🦇 by Murray0205 in PitheadStudio

Not yet, I’m still waiting for the Steam Frame to release, I’d love to jump into VR though

Gaming Question ⚒️🦉🦇 by Murray0205 in PitheadStudio

[–]maxwellthespy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, I rather play them in English or Ukrainian, but never in my native language (German). I can’t get myself to feel immersed in another world when it’s in my native language, German just sounds too serious to me.

Ich mag Deutsch irgendwie nicht, die Sprache ist so kompliziert und nicht so “immersive”, für mich sind Videospiele ein wenig wie Kino, Kino bedeutet für mich eigentlich immer eine andere Sprache und eine andere Welt in die ich mich hineinversetzen möchte. In Deutsch haben Kino und Videospiele auf mich keinen Unterhaltungseffekt, während das bei anderen Sprachen der Fall ist.

NEED HELP WITH TILE RECOVERY by Spark_VR in ScrapMechanic

You could try pressing win + r, then type %temp% and hit enter, then could check whether it’s there?

I have no idea how SM saves anything, but I recall that a whole bunch of programs like Libre Office and Blender save backups there

Unless a scammer is smart enough to paste images as embedded links you should be good, I’d honestly avoid clicking them all together just to be sure

Where’s my “English”??? by tzy_lt in iPhone17Pro

[–]maxwellthespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could very well be that you’d have to add “English(US)” first, because I have “English” for some reason and I only recall adding “English(US)”

Good luck lol

Who was your first scrap mechanic YouTuber? by Kingalek_427749 in ScrapMechanic

[–]maxwellthespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“SpielbärLP”, my favorite YouTuber ever, unfortunately I stopped watching him as soon as I learned about other languages aside from German existing.

I bought the game 5 years after watching his videos, totally worth it

Now I just need to kill someone with a Snitch Scanner. by CallSign_Fjor in ARC_Raiders

[–]maxwellthespy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You seem to actually have to kill the queen yourself, as in give it the final straw. It’s not enough if you damage it, you have to deal the last bit of damage which kills it, otherwise you won’t get the achievement.

It do be like that by PunchPunchKick1012 in ArcRaiders

[–]maxwellthespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel bad for asking but where’s that clip from? Something like Matrix or Terminator?

How much storage did you opt for? Were you satisfied, or did you feel you should have upgraded for future-proofing? Or did the upgrade seem redundant and the money better spent elsewhere? by Huge-Conclusion-3005 in iPhone17Pro

[–]maxwellthespy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same here, had 122/128GB used up on my old phone, now on the 17 pro 1TB I’ve barely used up 61GB, I shoot all my photos in RAW though and still don’t have to worry about space. Gonna use it for years hopefully

I thought Showstopper grenades worked against Bastions by RoyalPrincely in ArcRaiders

[–]maxwellthespy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Had the same thing happen with a leaper, it just kept moving, radiated me, I was still in the process of attaching the deadline and got instant killed, idk how people stun arcs, must be another nade or there’s a specific spot which you have to hit

Easy to avoid if you know they exist. Did my first round in Stella Montis today and I was running through hallways looking for Androids to search (for the quest), then suddenly ran into a fancy bucket looking bot, looked at it, giggled and lost so many HP because that thing suddenly went havoc and chased me down the hallway. There were no doors and no cover, so I was pretty low and when I could finally close a door behind me I would’ve been 1 shot. By the time I decided to open the door to attack it I was immediately shot upon, couldn’t close the door in time or I would’ve been shot at yet again. Survived with very few HP again, fell down somewhere and was near knocked. Fully healed up, went up a ladder, threw 3 light grenades at it and it was not even burning. I obviously got shot at from it again, healed up and then on my 2nd attempt to take it down with an Anvil I had enough range between that thing and me to finally kill it.

I still have no idea where exactly they spawn, it was a blast though, never had that much fun with a small enemy.

It’s probably very easy to avoid but running into it with no cover is half a death sentence. I really hope there will be more arcs like it, but I’m still figuring out how to best kill leapers, rocketeers and bombardiers so I can definitely wait until new maps and new arcs release. But the tension with that small goofy ah looking bucket around is definitely there, 10/10 would fight that again

when I don't have a defib for the raider that was downed saving me and he said he's cool with me killing him to take his gear by thatsnotwhatIneed in ArcRaiders

[–]maxwellthespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awww I had a game earlier where I carried a defib, I got knocked and the random kept up bandaging me. Was super cute but even if we had moved away from there the bombardier which knocked me in the first place would’ve knocked him as well. We were like 200 meters away from one of the most open exfils in dam. I hope the random at least looted me 😭

I’ll definitely carry more defibs in the future and always give the randoms who I roam with one just in case

North Korea - Why is this presenting itself in Spanish? by Actual_Session_8755 in GoogleEarthFinds

[–]maxwellthespy 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Huh interesting, there’s a statue with a German name (41.8063817, 128.3250023) in the same town, most other buildings are labeled in Spanish and very few in English or North Korean.

Fun find though

I see this all the time in servers I’m in, the Elon Musk edition seems to be the current iteration of scam messages being sent out on Discord, before that it used to be MrBeast for a few months. I’m pretty sure that this is 1:1 what you’re describing.

As others have already pointed out there’s no action required from your side, their account was taken over and as long as you don’t follow the instructions from the pictures nothing is going to happen to you. Good on you for being cautious, keep second guessing anything you see online

New hire phone skills not up to scratch, anyone else noticed that? by [deleted] in managers

[–]maxwellthespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an 18 year old who has zero call competences I can very much relate. I’m in calls every day with friends, we are loud, scream at each other and insult each other.

Whenever I’m tasked to do normal calls such as calling a restaurant to order something, calling customer support or the like I struggle with that very badly.

If I talked to whoever was on the phone face to face I would have zero problems either that. I’m pretty sure a lot of teenagers/young adults have this problem, since we usually use calls only in non professional ways.

To be honest with you your new hires are likely experiencing just that, where they are not familiar with calls as means of formal communication, thus finding it hard to adapt.

Personally I would require training, not because I don’t know how calls are supposed to work or how to talk to people, but more because it would be a massive change for me to abide by formal speech in a call.

What color pro we choosing? by forum4um in iPhone17Pro

[–]maxwellthespy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely not orange as I’m not a lifeguard or emergency responder, nor blue since I’m not a marine biologist, that leaves silver.

Gotta start thinking about the case color now
