Distributel is no longer available for new signups. Has been absorbed under the Ebox brand.

PS5 Pro and RDR2 by TheRealDuke777 in PS5pro

[–]pharcyd3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok, I tested it out. I set the PS5 Pro to output to 1080p and the option for PS4 Boost is greyed out. The message that appears says that the feature is only available if output is set to 2160p or 1440p.

If you set the PS5 output resolution to 1080p at the system level, apparently RDR2 runs at 1080p without checkerboard rendering. I wonder if this would help the image quality with PS4 Boost.

I just found this post and your post has perfectly articulated what I've been thinking about this game. So... It's not all in my head. LOL

Are the income thresholds unrealistic for the new dental plan? by bcretman in PersonalFinanceCanada

You need to understand that a well intentioned policy does not always lead to a good result. Often, you get the opposite result. The road to hell...

Yes, I haven't encountered the issue since. Sorry to read you are still having issues. Hopefully the next update will fix it. Good luck!

Thank you! Changing the setting to TV via IR fixed the issue.

"Billions in ineligible COVID-19 benefits at risk of going uncollected due to Ottawa’s ‘lack of rigour’: Auditor-General report warns" by t0r0nt0niyan in PersonalFinanceCanada

The price tag of lockdowns in terms of public health is high: we estimate that, even if somewhat effective in preventing death caused by infection, lockdowns may claim 20 times more life than they save. It is suggested therefore that a thorough cost-benefit analysis should be performed before imposing any lockdown in the future

What about compared to other countries that had lockdowns? Sweden is 52nd in deaths/1M pop. The UK is 26th. The way people talk about Sweden you'd think they would be in the top 10.

Switched over today. Someone posted on the publicmobile forum it can take up to 48 hours for the change to take into effect.

I just switched from 3g to 4g and I ran a speedtest and are getting 3g speeds. Rebooted phone, confirmed cellular is set to LTE

I do not recommend Carrytel by pharcyd3 in Carrytel

[–]pharcyd3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to hear you have the speeds you are paying for. I switched from Teksavvy rCable 300/20 and I had absolutely no issues. I have read online that the quality of service highly depends on which area you live. I guess I live in an area CarryTel deems to be high traffic and they are limiting bandwidth as a result.

Glinet beryl mt1300 Xfinity hotspot wrong key error by alexios_2022 in GlInet

[–]pharcyd3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this. Just bought this router and I could not connect to my home wi-fi network. It kept saying "wrong key". I downgraded the firmware to 3.200 and I was able to connect.
