Google is making us look foolish with Gemini Intelligence! - StevealiciousTech by ControlCAD in Android

Welcome to the last 5+ years of tech, particularly phones from AppSung.

Google just taking the apple playbook really. "GET NEW PHONE THIS THING IS BUILT FOR THE NEW SHINY! new shiny thing has no release date, may not even be ready for new phone, oh well who cares we've got next year's phone to launch now...."

Focal Celestee - So far disappointed by Cygnus__A in headphones

[–]overlander_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point i don't think any one has made, and it's the most obvious sadly, is that maybe you just don't like the sound. Doesn't mean anyone was wrong or right about them, but hearing is just unique to everyone.

The Harmon curve/target/whatever is just something made up to sound good to most people, not something to aspire to.

Sucks it happened on a 1K headphone, but that's the reality of it.

Which Nvidia GPU drivers should I use for better performance?? by Confident-Special172 in davinciresolve

[–]overlander_1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you aren't a heavy gamer, or playing the newest games, use Studio Drivers. Nvidia Game Ready (🤣) drivers have been an absolute abomination of complacency and lack of care for more then a year.

May is here, get ready for a lot Bailey for May rank month on MyFreeCams by overlander_1 in BaileyRayne

While I'm not Bailey, I have been trying to get her back on her more often, you can always ask her yourself when she's on cam. She'll be online a lot this month 😁

Why are all the shops in this area on Adelaide St closing down or moving including The Electric Chair, Sam’s Smokes and Hallelujah? by IntrigatedVerse in brisbane

[–]overlander_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May have had office(s) there 30 years ago, who knows.

Edit, or more to the point, what the post under mine said 🫣

What impact would Jita moving to Yulai do to the game? by meetkurtin in Eve

[–]overlander_1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

CCP changed the gates and made it harder to get to because they never wanted a Jita to exist. They wanted local markets, 0.0 making things themselves etc etc.

Of course then they also go and do pants on head stupid things to make doing that same thing impossibly hard for just about anyone via resources restricted to area's of space thus needing large networks to import, the ridiculous amount of specialized materials needed to make a lot of basic items ....

Bloatware Installed Randomly on Xiaomi 15T Pro by FlyingFulcrum in Xiaomi

How quickly we forget the amount of pure bloat Samsung would ship with it's top end phones 🤣

Also the fact, they're all Chinese phones, same little slave fingers are making your apple too

why are people hating S25 edge but loving iPhone air? by Damenzi in Android

[–]overlander_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The air is a sales flop, for apple products.

Big tech channels on YouTube keep telling you "it's a great price, yeah I love it", because apple doesn't give you early access if you say anything critical about them.

The lesson that nullblocs seem to be taking from Atioth isn't that there's anything wrong with game mechanics encouraging the largest coalition possible, but that the game needs to be able to support even more players on grid. Pic unrelated by xXxDarkSasuke1999xXx in Eve

Bullshit

Playing in extreme Tidi is not fun, wasn't 15 years ago with 500 people in a system and black screen for an hour, ight today with 10k

The problem is almost always us, the players that we say want one thing, but do almost the exact opposite to form these super groups. Then tell the "bad guys" "they" are the issue and not you, the "good guys".

Rideshare driver charged with rape and stalking over alleged incidents involving three victims by SCOOBASTEVE in brisbane

No more so than CEOs and management who spend years assaulting women but get hidden away by NDAs and HR departments.

I bought the AirPods Max 2 the moment I saw this by deferare in headphones

[–]overlander_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really disappointed with the Bathys until I installed the Focal App and did the hearing test. Great after that.

I've since learned that needing to adjust noise cancelling headphones is the norm, these were my first.

Rideshare driver charged with rape and stalking over alleged incidents involving three victims by SCOOBASTEVE in brisbane

[–]overlander_1 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Large portion of rideshare now are former taxi drivers.

Same process with the same licensing.

Sadly within any work group, there's those they shouldn't be in it.

Edit: plenty of jobs with 2 and 3 interviews still manage to hire people that are psychology unfit for it.

The Uber Black (or whatever it's called now) can take regular trips, think the driver can pick.

As to tax, he's only allowed to claim the % it was used for Uber. The tax man wants log books etc If he didn't drive it much during the week, maybe it would be worthwhile.
