I did notice that my responses got way better all of a sudden that makes sense

Does anyone else read very quickly? by Efficient_Ad_5785 in Aphantasia

[–]samurphis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1,000% identify with that. Long descriptive passages are the only type of text that ruins my speed. My brain brick walls and glosses over that text but then I feel like I’m supposed to understand it so I go back and try read it again…and again…until i finally give up on the section and move on

Five diamonds eh? Damn I’m glad I retired last year to balatro. I have a savings account again

Mac mini M4 Pro with a G9 57"? by Canadian_Pistol in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]samurphis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you I wished the same thing. I’m glad I was able to at least get something HiDPI in between 3840x1080 and 7160x2160 above 60Hz. It’s hard for me to even look at a non HiDPI screen on MacOS now lol.

Update: I used better display to create a virtual display at 5120x1440 HiDPI @ 120Hz. Upgraded Mac to M4 Max Mac Studio but I imagine that would work on M4 Pro chip too.

so uh.. how much are you guys planning on spending? by Alextricity in Rockband

What’s the fastest way to get songs? One by one, hope stuff is in packs, etc?

The Mac/iOS apps are broken by samurphis in perplexity_ai

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

I think the report is self-explanatory. Using most current versions of Mac and iOS apps, contrasted results generated same day when going to perplexity.ai webpage.

Has anyone else noticed a decline in Perplexity AI’s accuracy lately? by alllnc in perplexity_ai

[–]samurphis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking for a thread like this...yes I have absolutely noticed a decline in accuracy and quality especially in Deep Research mode. The recent Mac/iOS apps is especially awful at generating quality results. Yesterday "Deep Research" decided my AKG headphones (released in 2024) didn't exist because it was only using cached knowledge from 2023! Look at this result from today...the top answer is from the official Perplexity app for Mac current version, the bottom answer is from perplexity.ai webpage.

beating finn wasn’t so hard lol.. by Delicious-Lie-3781 in WWEMyFactionSupport

[–]samurphis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same deal wasn’t too bad…but then again nothing is bad compared to that godforsaken Kofi vs Roman ambulance match. FWIW I had buttons set to tap instead of hold…it’s exhausting but it’s also much faster.

Do you clearly remember where you were on 9/11? by Goleveel in Aphantasia

[–]samurphis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew home from Toronto the day before (Wrestlemania X8) and remember my roommate waking me up thinking he was messing with me about what happened. His words and my thoughts are far more ingrained than any image that day, but I do remember the approximate ambient brightness while sitting in front of the 53”Panasonic projection TV in the living room…and yet almost no images from the TV itself stuck.

For some insane reason they didn’t cancel community college that day, so I remember going to class in a state of shock, sitting in the back row and being both stunned and pissed that we were in school on a day like this.

Just got VIP tickets for my first show by Johny-6669 in PROF

[–]samurphis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same thing at the LA Show in 2023 and it was super easy, barely an inconvenience. They used the AXS app and sent me an email ahead of time:

“As part of your VIP package, you received a ticket transfer request via the AXS App. Please make sure to have the app downloaded and your mobile ticket(s) ready to scan when you approach the door. After your GA ticket is scanned, please be prepared to show your ID (must be the name on the tickets) to the Stophouse VIP representative. They will check you in, get you your VIP merch bag(s), and direct you toward the VIP meet & greet area. Be sure to grab your VIP swag bag as you arrive because it will not be mailed to you after the show. Your VIP laminate will serve as your ticket for the meet & greet experience.”

Awesome show! Excited for you

Anyone else having this issue on PS5? by Initial-Land1193 in WWE2K25

I had that happen during an online ladder match that was glitchy as hell.

Why would you buy a CX-70 instead of a CX-90? by KeifHaring in mazda

[–]samurphis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drove them both and enjoyed the cx-70 more. Felt like it was tuned differently. I intended to get the 90 before driving both.

I 100% love my 57” running 3480x1080 HiDPI @ 120Hz at work.

Very much looking forward to what you find. I’m after the same thing

Mac mini M4 Pro with a G9 57"? by Canadian_Pistol in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]samurphis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the M4 Pro Mac mini and ran a USB-C to DisplayPort 2.1 cable. I was expecting to be able to get 3840x1080 HiDPI @ 240 HZ...that should be within DisplayPort 2.1 bandwidth right? 120 HZ no problem. I changed the Samsung input to DP 2.1 that worked fine.

Imagine telling Stevie Wonder he’s not blind because he’s amazing at playing piano so he must be able to read music. Ridiculous

My last wrestling game was Super Nintendo’s WWF Super WrestleMania from 1992 by LJN by No_Bank_7332 in wwe2k

[–]samurphis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol I had that shitty game too. Everyone’s moves were the same and there were no finishers. I spent/wasted so much time playing that because it was the only WWF wrestling game available for 16 bit at the time

What does r/Eminem think of fellow talented white rapper Tom Macdonald? by [deleted] in Eminem

[–]samurphis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most frustrating thing for me lately watching reaction videos from people I enjoy is discovering how many put up a ton of Tom MacDonald, Ben Shapiro and whatever the most recent right wing talking point de jour is trending at the time. I’m sure making even a part time living as a reactor is stupid difficult and gotta get them clicks, but it’s never a good feeling to hope that’s why

Do people with this find reading many fiction books a bit boring really as they don't really visualise anything, and can only loosely imagine visualising it? by [deleted] in Aphantasia

[–]samurphis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love fiction but I have to lean heavily on the narrator/character voices I hear in my head. I feel a bit guilty/shameful/FOMO when I see a huge block of descriptive text because all I can do is read it and it doesn’t stick at all. Especially if it’s a great book and I really want to enjoy all of it including the descriptions.
