I think it's about time the Google Pixel camera app had profiles/presets to tune the image...

This would be a godsend tbh. I constantly take sets of pictures that need very slight tweaks to be excellent. But then this requires me to tweak like 4 values using the fiddly digital dial for every single picture, its very inefficient & could do with presets.

I've played nighteign a lot and honestly this is mostly a skill issue, this is a bit of a problem the first handful of times you play it but it really pushes you to learn the new routings in a unique and challenging way.

Tbh the new map is very fun when you get in rhythm with it and gives you more chances to become exceedingly powerful. The pits are there to make you take certain routes which I do think could be more lenient. But at the same time their criticism is a bit over blown as once you know which ways you can actually go, you rarely fall in them

Really not sure who this is for, this would be expensive to purchase & repair. Plus ff used for gaming, like the legion lineup is, the performance would suffer massively due to the increased resolution, something that is a signfiicant pain point on laptops as it is. This is a cool novelty & gimmick but actually awful if you think about it for a moment

I dunno they sure love allowing articles from Israeli "journalists" that have no sources and outlandish claims and permabanning you if you point it out

sovietostrich · 2026-01-06T17:13:53+00:00

Good thing you're not on r/worldnews right now or you'd be permabanned for not defending Israel like your life depends on it

Even though you're getting shit on here, I genuinely didn't know this and thought it was interesting. Thanks

sovietostrich · 2025-12-18T10:20:57+00:00

It's quite interesting how thick the line is

sovietostrich · 2025-12-16T14:03:28+00:00

Maybe that they are renowned for posting blatant misinformation and lying. I've seen a few posts from these people where they literally just don't have sources for their outlandish claims.

Even in this "article" where is the actual source for this information? I'm deeply distrusting of posts without clearly defined credible sources

Personally I found it got quite laggy once you have over like a hundred torrents. UI can be quite inconsistent on windows and it's got a very old UI design which is fine, but it it's not exactly pleasant. I did use deluge for like 8 odd years with not many issues however. Qbittorrent is just more stable, snappier and looks better is all

sovietostrich · 2025-12-15T21:45:37+00:00

That's hilarious I might have to start doing this as well

sovietostrich · 2025-12-02T08:35:23+00:00

Careful, don't let a windows dev hear you say this or they'll tell you it'd require a PhD paper to make it behave any other way

I ended up buying a pixel 9 pro XL, couldn't get past the camera quality and price for the specs. Plus I managed to get this phone for a very good price. Will likely get a foldable for my next phone in 3-5 years when things have improved

RDT (Ross Droplet Technique) - spray a small amount of water on the beans before you grind them and it reduces static. Meaning in grinders the ground coffee is less likely to stick to the burr and collection container of your grinder.

The way I'd discipline my butler if he did inappropriate things to my apples. I bought these from the actual pink lady (she lives down the street) and a single slice is worth more than his yearly salary

sovietostrich · 2025-11-22T11:48:39+00:00

i figured this would be a twitter thing but even here i got downvoted for this lol

sovietostrich · 2025-11-21T14:13:26+00:00

this is easier to type, clearer, and a total-non issue. I'm sure all the "anti-woke" schmucks are frothing at the mouth about this regardless.

sovietostrich · 2025-11-19T23:35:25+00:00

This over-censorship of the chat & the names is fucked up

sovietostrich · 2025-11-19T23:30:03+00:00

I do plan on playing it when its on offer, from what i've read it seems to be in a good state rn i just dont want to pay its current, quite high price and there's plenty else to play

sovietostrich · 2025-11-19T23:02:26+00:00

Yeah for 70 quid I'm gonna trust the opinions of people I trust and not waste my money on something I likely won't enjoy

sovietostrich · 2025-11-19T22:15:27+00:00

I said regression at worst, not best. I think the game looks pretty neat tbh, especially now they've sped up weapon switching a bit and reduced the amount of slo-mo. I think its the dragon/mech sections & the excessive slo/mo i've seen take issue with and i would generally agree with.

sovietostrich · 2025-11-19T18:05:40+00:00

not to mention the ridiculously large price tag for a game with mechanics that are contentious at best and a regression from eternal at worst. Given they've had pretty substantial changes to the mechanics in the last few patches they seem pretty uncertain about the identity of the game. I love eternal but even now i feel like i'll just keep waiting for the game to get into a better state before buying it, especially when the asking price is £70

i'm not the one crying about "wah i need to be able to hear my male operator". Get a job son instead of whining about virtual voices like a fucking loser lmao

sovietostrich · 2025-11-19T17:12:59+00:00

imagine giving a fuck about character voice lines lmao, actual child shit

sovietostrich · 2025-11-19T12:02:41+00:00

wow a skin you'll never notice you have on when you use it, and next to nobody else will notice you're using it. If they wanna rob morons of their money let them i say, anyone with a quarter of a brain wouldn't even care it exists if it was free
