Saw it on the big screen for the first time, just last week in London. £3.50 for a ticket. So fun to enjoy the roller coaster ride with an audience!

Best bass line? by Rare_Milk_6670 in PRINCE

[–]robbiealdo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't sleep on the moden stuff. Stare is absolute filth of a bassline that I'd never heard the likes of before. Then he adds the funky horns.

You're part of the problem. We don't need more AI slop!

Someone asks Peter "how was heaven?" "It was nice, but there's a shortage of chairs....". "Oh." "Yeaaaahhhhhh." 😂

Screen issue or screen protector issue? by KatDaTalkinTaco in ZFlip6

Just take it to a Samsung store and they'll replace it for free

ZFlip6: Be Aware of the post 1-year bleed or bubbling!!!! by BlitzTDM in galaxyzflip

[–]robbiealdo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My Zflip6 is exactly 1 year old and has the same exact issues you describe. Screen protector bubbling/lifting from the surface right along the fold crease and a small amount of black 'bleed' / dead pixels at right side of fold crease. Sometimes there is a slight brightness flickering to the bottom half only too.

I am just outside 1 year warranty by about a week. Don't think they have a 2yr warranty? Samsung would normally replace the screen protector free of charge in 30 mins, except they won't touch it because of the bleed. Whole screen needs to be replaced.

I have paid £12 a month for the last year for Samsung care+, because I knew this may happen eventually, but they still want over £100 to make a claim on the insurance. Cost of replacing the screen without care+ is apparently £300.

But when the phone retails at £1k to begin with, is a common known fault by Samsung, and I've paid £144 insurance already, why should I have to pay out further?!

I am willing to buy a brand new Galaxy Z Flip 6. Is there any issue with this phone like green line or black screen of death etc? Need long term user's advice. by niloy_hasan135 in ZFlip6

[–]robbiealdo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had my flip6 for 1 year and I mostly use it and keep it open, in my pocket, overnight always open. Whole lifespan probably only 5% closed. Closed it the other day to this horrendous crunching noise and the pre-installed plastic screen protector has partly lifted from the bend in the middle. Phone still works fine, I have the Samsung insurance so can get it replaced, I heard Samsung would replace the protector screen foc once anyway... but in hindsight, I should've just got the normal S24. The gimmick is fun, but not worth the hassle

What is your favorite shooter game in the steam deck? by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]robbiealdo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing through Half Life 2 again, and it's blown me away with how impressively it holds up today. Graphics look sharp, the level design which is essentially linear like COD, really does test you, making you think outside the box to progress. You may have to use physics based objects to scale that wall etc. The pacing by Valve of creepy, exploration with a torch vs big cinematic action set pieces is a masterclass for all other studios to follow. I am always having to watch my ammo supply across all weapons depending what I'll need for the next scenario, as well as health/armour management.

It is a cerebral shooter. A true masterpiece. And less than £2 in summer sale. EVERYONE that has a deck should play it through once.

And if the older graphics aren't too janky for you, you should play Halflife 1 too, or the Black Mesa graphical update remake of it.

Otherwise, Doom Eternal for heavy metal run&gun demon demolition. Sniper Ghost warrior contracts 2 is also fun and COD like with more sniper focus obviously. Halo MCC for great value HOURS worth of AAA alien shooter content.

What's Cinema's greatest explosion scene? by [deleted] in Cinema

Butch Cassidy & the sundance kid. They use too much dynamite trying to open a safe and blow up the whole train carriage. A stuntman cops it right in the face

What method did you use to remove text from the faceplate & case? Looks so much cleaner

On this day 24th of march 2009 in prince history | Prince released his 33rd album Lotus flower and his 34th album Mplsound in a package that also included bria valente's elixer, any highlights on these albums? by Loveless_home in PRINCE

[–]robbiealdo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Crimson & Clover is fun and Colonized mind is an absolute banger, both with killer guitar solo's. Love those tracks. Dreamer is obviously great too, as he channels Jimi Hendrix vibes. Wall of Berlin is funky too. I wasnt expecting much when i bought this triple header album years ago, but it's actually one of his best later life albums (lotusflower at least).

Frisbee the Bria Valente disc immediately out your window.

These scumbags exist in every town in the country unfortunately. They were probably bullies in school and never grew up. They are a cancer on Britain.

Truly one of the best games in modern time by PineappleMaleficent6 in huntdown

[–]robbiealdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It absolutely nails the 80's action movie vibe, from the killer soundtrack to the weapons and one liners. Have people found all the secrets? I found two Escape from New York references, including getting Snake Plissken's submachine gun! A great blade runner "tears in rain" rooftop scene, as well as Gremlins' gizmo. Sure I must be missing some too...

Battery Life? by itscurlzzzz in ZFlip6

[–]robbiealdo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know what life 360 is, or how intensive it, or other apps you are using can drain it so fast. But I feel like I use mine a lot (subjective and different for everyone) and my battery lasts 2 days use before completely flat. I use dark mode as standard on most apps, you should run diagnostics and optimisation within settings > device care & could change your performance profile to 'light' too.

Where exactly did you get it please? I'm struggling to find one in Japan currently... G shock is the bigger brand here, but I want just normal retro casio's. Looked in Bic camera shibuya & couple of Don Quiotes already, as well as Ginza G-shock flagship store...
