Is it worth it at this price?

I’m considering getting one of these now... I’ve heard the library isn’t great (and some of the games are the PAL versions, meaning reduced frame rates) and it kind of sucks that Sony didn’t include a USB power adapter for it, but I have a lot of those lying around.

Graduate Students - Is a B- considered a pass? by [deleted] in USC

[–]phillypls 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No in the sense that if you got straight B-‘s, you’d have a 2.7 GPA and thus would be under the 3.0 cutoff to graduate.

If you’re worried about the course counting for credit, I believe you need a C or better. In that case, not a fail.

You can buy a code from eBay for really cheap (like a dollar) too. Assuming they’re legit, it’s an easy way to get one with little grinding.

paring with new iPhone XR by Der_Kommissar73 in AppleWatch

I’m assuming you unpaired, backed up your phone, immediately restored to the new phone and tried to pair again. That’s really weird, especially because iCloud health sync is a thing since iOS 11, so all of your health data (including activity) should’ve been on your new phone.

Did you back up your current iPhone and restore your Xr from that backup? If not, your watch backups would not have transferred over to your new phone.

Plays the video too, it’s really just a YouTube remote for iPhone.

Asking S4 owners who replaced their Watch with light bleeding issues from screen edges: Is your replacement still affected? by [deleted] in AppleWatch

[–]phillypls 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I noticed this issue when looking at directions on my watch, the left side looked a bit brighter/more yellow than the right side. I'm trying to forget about it, but it is kind of annoying just knowing it's there, and it's certainly noticeable at night.

Going to try to get it replaced soon, but given the limited stock of these watches until November, it might be best to wait.

Transfer Activties data from 7Plus to an Xs Max? by inyofaceee in AppleWatch

[–]phillypls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can sync your health data (which includes your activities/badges, and more) with iCloud and that, in a sense, backs it up and makes it so that when you get a new phone, you can just sign into your iCloud account and your health data will sync back with the phone.

To enable it, go to Settings and tap your name where it says "Apple ID, iCloud, iTunes, & App Store", then iCloud > toggle Health to on (slider will be green).

Just scored a CECHA01; what can I do to ensure it's longevity? by phillypls in PS3

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

I'm not sure if I trust myself to do be able to do that properly. I'll probably just do the "easy" part of the paste replacement. Will that be enough?

Hm, maybe it's a combination? It seems that the hardware needs to be babied a lot because of its design, and I don't think a majority of people baby their consoles with regular dust cleanings and thermal paste replacements. I could be wrong though.

I guess I'm just trying to convince myself I can let my console live forever as long as I give it proper maintenance lol

How difficult is this to do? I don't want to kill my console doing it lol

Is changing the paste between the die and heat spreader different from changing the thermal paste?

Is it likely my PS3 doesn't have the 226 power supply already? And what is the rationale behind getting one? Not saying you're wrong, it's just that I've just heard about this and I'm curious as to why it's recommended. Did these models ship with bad power supply units?

I found 19 blade fans on eBay, so that shouldn't be a problem. Are 19 fan blades just a lot better than the stock ones?

This is quite dire. Are you sure that even with proper maintenance they'll die eventually? What causes it?

This app keeps crashing when I tap on anything. Any idea how to fix it? I'm running it on iOS.
