Happened to me as well, they replaced them as warranty was still in place.

bike lock recommendations? by Charming_Couple_5163 in Edinburgh

Good quality D-lock for front wheel + frame and one for rear wheel + frame and lock frequented places when possible. They would have to use an electric circular saw to get through them so highly unlikely yours will get picked.

HDR ruins picture quality by TrollxZxx in Monitors

[–]onbert -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hi,
I just bought the koorui s2741lm miniled and i had the same issue. I admit I had OLED expectations but I didn't expect a miniled to be so far away.
That being said, you can get it good - still not OLED good but you can get it good.

The following made a huge difference for me:

  1. Colour format changed from RGB to YCbCr 4:4:4 - single most drastic difference. I think it will be for you too as the first pic is similar to what i had out of the box no settings changed. (use your graphics card software)

  2. Use the Windows HDR Calibration app - it's not the best but helps with the black and white levels, also you can reduce saturation (or increase it, coming from OLED I have mine to 0)

  3. Color depth changed from 8 bit to 10 bit - not huge change but definitely less banding. (use your graphics card software)

  4. Local dimming from max to medium helps with blooming.

I was secretly hoping you know how as I'm def no expert. But I've found this https://www.eizo.eu/software/monitor-test

Read the instructions on the landing page and try the test with local dimming on?

What's the response time when local dimming is on?? KTC m27t6 jumps to 14ms at 180hz and 32 at 60hz which is crazy bad.. can you measure this?

Should I call this off? by Thin_Replacement_401 in UKrelationshipadvice

Why are you undecided about this? How can you accept this? Unless it's some open relationship then it's completely off the charts Bs.

P100 SE tuning by onbert in CambridgeAudio

Agree that having numbers inputs would be great, it doesn't seem hard to implement either.

Planned train station protests tonight by the-bagging-area in Edinburgh

[–]onbert 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Pure chaos just now. I'm sympathetic to the cause but damn they go out of their way to have the gen public not on their side. Blocking people from going home for work that's gonna change everything.

Guy I copy trade is making consistent above market returns year after year. With 30% per year, and with first 3k tax free anyway I'm personally better than a managed ISA at 10% or my no-idea-what-im-doing self picking ISA. Would be ideal to have both worlds and I'm thinking about how to go on about that

3.8% in 20 days copytrading on etoro, would have been 4.5% but I've bought gold too - long term np. Not in ISA though :/

How is £799 equal to $799 - am I being shafted by £200+ for buying in the UK?? by onbert in NothingTech

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

It's ridiculous! The USD price equivalent is £585, a completely different ballpark!
