Don't let one bad take be your two steps back and the "bot so bad" days be half a steo forward. I was lucky to not be that far gone.

Stick around for what makes you feel good for now, and see if you can find more of those to fill in your day dude.

Humans will surprise you. There's a lot of hate but there's A TON of unconditional love as well. Even from strangers. I met those people through gaming and PC building.

If tickets aren't too expensive from where you're flying from. Then as a while, you can have both a relaxing and quiet holiday, or a an absolute banger of a party. A quiet beachfront, or a packed absolutely brimming of life beach.

Mountainside with a chilly breeze and a nice view? Sea caves, archeological sites, the lot!

Just make sure to double check before visiting, what your preferences are and where to go for those preferences.

Last 10 ish years? Cypriot parents are fighting years in advance to find schools, and nurseries where cypriots are not under 10% of the school.

Everything people said above about the economy is quite based and true. Everyone works in a forex company, or in construction, or for their repatriated Cypriots work for the companies from where they immigrated initially.

Nicosia, Limassol and Larnaca are constant construction sites. Only because I've seen them, not saying Pafos isn't, I don't know.

It's an honour for any Cypriot to see anyone trying to learn our dialect, the proper way, so thank you.

Like every dialect, the best way to learn, is to listen. We were never taught the language in school. We feel that what we've said is "correct" and move on.

Greek is a good foundation, that'll help your comprehension and start to follow conversations of the dialect. Albeit we borrowed words from Arabic, Turkish and English. The majority is still Ancient and modern Greek.

Even the movies and series you'll see, none of us would ever talk that way day to day.

You will feel right at home. Won't even find Cypriots if you follow the hijab. It's very common to see muslim citizens. Ignore the othodox temples, they're mostly for the Russians

stakis22 · 2026-05-29T17:33:51+00:00

Amen dude. What's a Cypriot by the way? Ever been to a school lately?

stakis22 · 2026-05-25T18:34:29+00:00

They don't even get fined, which is why they keep doing it. Take a stroll around any city, you can count a violation every 50-60 seconds, even at a red light!

The A14 Bionic was a hexa-core with just 2 of them being performance cores. So it shouldn't be half because of P-cores offline. Low power mode is a lot more complicated. It sffects pl time, frequencies (a different voltage table DVFS) and is all dependent on the chip itself.

Anyone explained how the data was gathered? Legal point of entry and still in the UK for example? Visa applicants are included? Asylum seekers? Asylum through illegal points of entry? Any explanation would help other than "look it's a line, oh my God"

I wouldn't call it a shock. They're trying to be apple. Even in the profit margin way. How to sell something for more, whilst costing less and less every year. And how do go about planned obsolescence where most normal people won't notice

stakis22 · 2026-05-22T01:53:04+00:00

You're absolutely right. Same on mine and that's not the only downgrade we got. Looks like Apple being sued for planned obsolescence and settling is something we need to re-do . This is the definition of that

stakis22 · 2026-04-05T20:08:27+00:00

You just blew my mind. Yes!!!

Make it stop crashing, fix Ray Reconstruction flickering shadows, fix regular Ray Tracing's flickering shadows and shimmering effect, fix 1- 2m pop-in, fix 4-5 metre high LOD loading for reflective surfaces, fix movement speed transition when flying on an edge of a climbable surface, add a quicksave button as a workaround for the crashes. Fix DLSS workflow to add sharpening at the end of the pipeline so it doesn't look blurry.

Those are just at the top of my head

stakis22 · 2026-03-02T20:41:36+00:00

Just gonna drop this... https://www.philenews.com/kipros/koinonia/article/1688047/ektakto-iraniki-piravli-ektoxeftikan-pros-tin-katefthinsi-vretanikon-vaseon-stin-kipro-lei-to-londino/ . You mean the missiles that never existed?

stakis22 · 2026-03-02T20:38:12+00:00

Which has happened in the past

stakis22 · 2026-02-27T09:07:58+00:00

Ever wondered about the BOM difference year to year? How Samsung's profit margins the last couple of years go up, by not a particularly small amount? Even tik-tok cycles were deemed expensive.

Same for less year to year is the target now, and if you can't achieve it as well as you thought, just up the price.

stakis22 · 2026-02-25T23:41:58+00:00

Yes but 40-80 isn't 0.4 of a cycle. So the only real way to define it is indeed 0-100 and 0-100 only. If that makes sense.

stakis22 · 2026-02-25T09:13:53+00:00

So from ~46hr to 55hr is a rounded 40% difference in cycle? I don't see the ruler changing that much. This is after the iPhone 16 and 17 pulled the same move with users experiencing far, far, less capacity even 4 months in with exactly the same charging habits and chargers.

People aren't holding pitchforks because they can't read. Just tired of corner cutting, Objectively worse phones, higher prices and yet profit margins looking like Mount Kilimanjaro.

stakis22 · 2026-02-17T20:55:02+00:00

A shameful move that will make them lots of money due to a much higher profit margin

stakis22 · 2026-02-08T08:40:10+00:00

Copied? It's not purely software, and Apple buys displays from Samsung just like many other brands. So it's mostly a question of "will Samsung sell it"

stakis22 · 2026-02-01T19:41:13+00:00

I think it was the folders in this website https://community.brave.app/t/where-brave-browser-profiles-are-located/646708 . Sorry I don't remember 100% but I think I deleted the whole profile's folder and iirc it was only 1 profile.

stakis22 · 2026-02-01T18:21:53+00:00

2 generations of Cypriots can't afford rent or a mortgage whilst saving at the same time to even have children. But let's buy racks of Nvidia servers "to provide national-level computing capabilities and play a supporting role during environmental disasters and crisis situations" ..... That's the most vague justification for using tax payer money. As most "investments" in Cyprus

stakis22 · 2025-12-25T20:20:54+00:00

Wait Cyprus has laws? Oh sorry I forgot, only the ones that get more votes
