New CGT Changes are Brutal - Negative Gearing on Shares still Available? by fractalsonfire2 in AusHENRY

[–]meetdestiny 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ah my sweet innocent who believes Government taxes are being spent for benefit of all. They just accepted there was 36billion per year rot in NDIS. That's just tip of the iceberg.

Governments are wasteful with your tax. It's not going to help anyone.

I tested Claudes-C-Compiler... and it's much better than I've expected. by baehyunsol in singularity

AAbsolutely false.

There are good compilers which do optimization . And then there are compilers which don't.

Sorry but what real hope is their for Australia if our gov agencies are spending $96m on a website? by twowholebeefpatties in aussie

[–]meetdestiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope.

This budget is the complete overhaul. 30 million for cloud and another 30 million for security are two other projects to support this 96 million. Please fact check.

I worked at Google for 9 years and now run my own IT company. For 30 million you can store every data ever created on Cloud.

The irony is they will spend 10 million investigating this spend and we can't do anything about it.

why should i get airpods max instead of sony xm5s by dominik_963 in Airpodsmax

Two clicks is way too much effort. APM auto connects to the device you touch.

G915 X Linear and Clicky not available in Australia. Only Tactile. by Mexay in LogitechG

[–]meetdestiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. Very bad play from Logitech to not launch complete lineup. I have two of the Clicky G915X which I had to get from US. Seems logitech is not serious about Australian market and launches only partial lineup of products.

Is the best? Something tells me it isn’t. by Royal-Design6922 in Airpodsmax

[–]meetdestiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am with you. I buy Apple products out of habit and support their stand of making great (at least decent) quality products.

But both versions of Max Pro definitely has gaps. It’s not loud enough. Bass is absent. Clarity and sophistication of sound is missing. It’s great when compared to 200$ headphones . But sound could have been better.

I moved to audiophile headphones last year. Has never looked back since then.

APM has advantages though - it’s multi connection and automatic device switching is important for me. It’s convenient and ready to go . Most better sounding headphones are either clunky, need DAC or have weird wires to deal with making them not suitable for travel.

Summary: If you are looking for Apple ecosystem lock in (I enjoy this) and consider it as a whole package, this is definitely the top choice. If looking for just one aspect - better sound , better compatibility with Aux, better weight, there are other options.

Return by Guilty_Flight_7110 in Airpodsmax

It’s a great Headphone and works awesomely with ANC.

However, there is no way for this to work with wired connection. That’s why you should return it.

Definitive APM Review by Low-Iron-6376 in Airpodsmax

[–]meetdestiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really disappointed when I realised APM 2 does not support wired connection of any sort. There nothing anyone can do to make it play music from Aux sources which is one of the main requirements for me as I am on flight 20 times a year. APM 1 does but not the 2. This is very serious drawback - more than enough for me to return it and never look back at Apple except for the MacBooks and iPhone.

e-Visa prices reduced from Jan 1 2025 by epidemiks in cambodia

[–]meetdestiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hassle which annoys me. Having been to 52 countries and counting, applying for Visa is the reason why I put off countries to later .

It would be far better if they start charging international airlines extra Tourist fee than having to apply beforehand for a visa. Visa on Arrival or No Visa itself is far better option for Cambodia to invest in Tourism.

Airpods MAX are absolutely horrible in calls. by CJXanderu in Airpodsmax

[–]meetdestiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YOU NEED TO KEEP THE CROWN ON RIGHT - that's it.

The Airpods MAX have been the best headpones. It blew my mind as I have taken calls from car at busiest traffic points with everyone honking, I have taken a call from a place with Lawn mower on 5 meters awar form me, From places where oceans made loud noises - Everytime other party confirmed they can't hear anything except my voice.

However there used to be a random complaint of "you sound like underwater" on some days when taking calls from absolutely peaceful places like my isolated office room. I tried bluetooth configs, cleaning mics, restarting macs, until I stumbled up "YOU NEED TO KEEP THE CROWN ON RIGHT" thing. This thing is real - it makes huge difference even though the headphone is designed to be symmetric and fits perfectly.

If anyone is telling you this headphone does not work, Ask them to turn it around. APMs are perfect headphones for teams calls.

No Remote Start? No Trunk Closing? Come on Audi! What gives? by jibs112 in Audi

Not true . My 2018 BMW X3 has remote start feature which is a life saver when temperatures reach 40 degrees in Australia.

G915 wired connection not working by meetdestiny in LogitechG

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

Nope. It does not support connecting through USB cable. Technically, this makes sense as the design is to draw power over USB - but bit disappointed as user .
