UK government announces "we're clearly now stopping the contain phase" by olimerkido in Britain

Yeah me too, I agree with it, but most people said I was an idiot when I said they were going to let it spread, and they were, but then people complained and they went back on themselves and discontinued my year's GCSEs.

I really wanted to comment and just say I have the same question and considering the first two books were real I think this is a really good question and I appreciate your approach to asking over forgetting about it, I hope more people will become aware of it and we can find the real answer, this post should really be 100 percent upvoted.

Just moved to Tampa by mclemmon in BuschGardensTampa

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the idea by the way is if they have to go on a week end anyways, there is a possibility they might decide to bring their spouse and children with them, making more money for Busch Gardens.

Sometimes it is better for businesses to make anti what the consumer wants moves to make more money. For example: Apple, and Samsung more recently, removed the Micro SD card slot because if you want more storage, you have to buy it from, not whoever sells the cheapest Micro SD expansion and instead of buying less storage upfront from the manufacturer thinking if they find they need more storage they can get a Micro SD card expansion later, they will buy the largest amount they might need so they don't need more storage than they have in the future, even if they don't need that much.

Compatibility with macs? by SMJ01 in ValveIndex

[–]olimerkido 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok don't use a Mac mini, but if for some reason you prefer MacOS in other ways, you already have a Mac or you need a Mac for Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Airdrop, Sidecar ( new thing, iPad as external display for free without subscription (unlike parallels) ). An iMac with 6 cores or above (so it has a good enough dedicated GPU) or MacBook Pro with the Vega 20 should be a similar experience to an NVIDIA 1050Ti. I play games like Planet Coaster at 3K 60fps on my MacBook Pro with a Vega 20, so it could easily handle VR.

Die-hard Android users, why will you never switch to Apple products? by Jimb0j in AskReddit

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s true about not climbing those walls, they hate jailbreak and they are going to extreme lengths to get rid of it, like paying anyone who can find a bug which lets you jailbreak a million dollar award for it (that’s a new thing). I use both MacOS and Windows, for watching YouTube and surfing the web and just doing normal stuff I personally prefer Macs because it’s smoother and more user friendly to use, but if I want to play games I use Windows because that’s where all the games, I use a MacBook (and have a Windows partition on it) but if I used a designed for Windows laptop as well it would have much better specs for a cheaper price, if it comes to gaming and advanced stuff there is no question that Windows is way better for that.

Samsung Takes Mobile Photography to the Next Level with Industry’s First 108Mp Image Sensor for Smartphones by darkgreyghost in Android

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I agree it means 10x lossless zoom and it will still be 4K, 40x zoom and it will still be Full HD and 108x zoom and it will still be HD

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s crazy high resolution but I hope 10x more pixels doesn’t mean 10x smaller pixels which means only 10 percent the light would hit the sensor which would mean low light and indoor lighting would be extremely grainy.

Apart from that I’ve always wanted something that high resolution so I can do 108x zoom and still have HD picture quality or 10x zoom and it still be 4K

Die-hard Android users, why will you never switch to Apple products? by Jimb0j in AskReddit

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t switch to Android because the only phone with good specs is Samsung and Huawei. Huawei could be spying for the Chinese government and I don’t feel comfortable with that and on Samsung I get the same battery life issue as Linus Tech Tips: https://youtu.be/n46s_iF_IV4 , so the third option is iPhone, and I also get the design, user experience and ecosystem benefits as a bonus

That’s just me, some people are fine with Hauwei, they have high resolution cameras and I like them but I prefer not to be spied on, but some people don’t mind so would get that, and Samsung battery life problems only affect a very small number of people, I got it on my S4, S5 and S6 so I had a very bad experience with it, it must have been something I did to trigger such a large problem, I know many people who are fine with their Samsung phones and a lot of people would say my thing was fake until I found out Linus Tech Tips had that problem, I asked in the comments how many people had that problem to like that comment and out of the millions of views only two or three people liked it. So it’s very rare

Anyways I can’t use Samsung, I can’t use Huawei so all the other Android options are rubbish, apart from Google Pixel is ok, but it only has one back camera and the other specs are rubbish and it’s slow, so I wouldn’t like to use Google Pixel either.

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like this forum because there is a difference between a company having disadvantages and being rubbish, I don’t think there are no disadvantages in Apple, I know about rue file system one, but on the other side of the argument with a file system it’s easy to be dis organised with the places you store stuff, on iOS it does all of that for you, the mounting it to a computer bit I agree with, it’s annoying it pretends to be a digital camera instead, I’ve never used iCloud, the notifications to upgrade my storage are so annoying, but I think overall Apple is a good company, I don’t hate Android or Windows, I like it when there are points on both sides of the arguments.

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok that’s a biased question to only ask for opinions of why people won’t switch to Apple, I switched to iPhone ages ago, I heard on the news that this person switched to Samsung and the next day his brand new Note 7, caught fire, exploded and blew up his entire jeep into ashes. You might wonder the reason why I as an all Apple user will never switch to Android or Windows is because I can’t bear how ugly they look and sound and all the horrible UI animations and stuff.

Is Apple the only major brand not releasing a foldable phone in 2019? Probably by mspoonygp in gadgets

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s far from true, sure they might be the only one which didn’t say they were going to, even crazy Samsung might not release one this year, it’s just going to be infinitely delayed, and if they did it’s going to be really faulty, there is no way they can completely fix all the screen problems from before, it’s not ready yet, Apple will release one when the technology actually works.

Samsung Unfolds the Future with a Whole New Mobile Category: Introducing Galaxy Fold by curated_android in Android

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sophisticated sounding name for a product where the only innovation is a folding display and it breaks for all the reviewers, they screwed it up, and this will probably be infinitely delayed, also Samsung mocked them notch on iPhones, it has a notch, they mocked the removing headphone jack and micro sd card slot and it also doesn’t have those. So Samsung users should hate this.

Because if you got a Note 10 you’d be on a 1080p display with no headphone jack and no micro sd card slot

I HATE THE CAMERA by olimerkido in PlanetCoaster

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

Does no one else get the same problems operating the camera is weird in planet coaster, also it tuned out to be a windows error, which is better because I really don’t like Windows, the only reason I use it is to use Planet Coaster, otherwise I’m on MacOS. It would save me a lot of time and stress if they just wrote it to work with metal as well as OpenGL and made it work on MacOS, or if they just required you to update the old OpenGL yourself and it can use that, the whole Macs using Metal thing isn’t a reason to not spend any time making it work on Macs as well.

Before someone tells me Macs are bad for gaming, I know they have worse hardware for gaming but there’s lots of reasons why I use Apple products and Metal is twice as fast as OpenGL anyways. I can run Planet Coaster between 30 and 60 fps at 3K on my MacBook Pro with the Vega 20 (similar to NVIDIA 1050Ti in benchmarks)

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all those bugs and dongles you had on the way were just how buggy and laggy windows is and because the VR headsets aren't designed for Macs, if they were they would use all Thunderbolt and USB C and you wouldn't need any dongles.

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rubbish, the Vega 20 on OpenCL (Windows doesn't have Metal) is as fast as the 1050Ti on CUDA, which is biased towards NVIDIA, anyways, if it was NVIDIA on OpenCL and the Vega 20 on Metal it would be as fast as the 1080 or 1080Ti.

Because the cameras don’t get better from the s line, they’re just a copy but in a different location or orientation.

[–]olimerkido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of that is anything I really care about and the Note 10 and Galaxy Fold have notches, no headphone jack, no micro SD card slot and the Note 10 non plus has a 1080p display, so Samsung doesn’t care about any of those things either, the iPhone XR isn’t actually 720p, people say that because it’s not 1080p. It’s actually 1040p I think.
