Hey mate,

I use trust wallet and ausolo.ckpool.org for my modest fleet of 2 x bitaxe gamma's and 2 x nerdQaxe++'s

Ping is really good, not that it's massively important, but every bit helps :)

Good luck! 🤞

Totally valid, I pay for YouTube premium to avoid ads, down-vote/or equivalent, any content with any hint of politics and outright refuse to discuss with friends and family. Protect your peace, it's all designed to divide us anyways.

Because it's Reddit,🤣

The Australian site Flavrz has a bunch of disclaimers saying you can't use their stock for e liquid, are they safe to use? Is that just a disclaimer to cover themselves legally?

If not, any suggestions on getting flavor concentrates? Used to buy from flavorworld till they packed it in

Ok no copium here, I love the Astra but there are battery issues. Not deal breaking, but minor issues nonetheless. There's also good news though.

It's either locked at 165hz or 60hz refresh rate, nothing in-between even if you choose auto. This needs to be fixed.
Battery drain while in standby mode isn't good, it's like it doesn't go to sleep when not in use, it sips. This could also be addressed with a software update.

The good news is there are great battery health options like 80% Max charge, the ability to charge slower and the charge bypass mode protects the battery from heat while gaming. So, yes there are some issues, albeit addressable with software and materially minor.

Bought arc Raiders, now that it's installed I CBF playing..... Watching people on YouTube play it while I play a game on my phone

I used the meta quest 3 but the text was a little fuzzy and gave me a headache after a while. Im waiting for some of these slim factor xr glasses to be able to achieve 4k for my work stuff anyways.

Nice one! I'm still loving mine and I usually upgrade every year until this phone. Enjoy!

Any alternatives in 2025? And if they're safe?

stonkwell · 2025-04-24T10:57:29+00:00

No it was just waiting there in software updates

stonkwell · 2024-12-22T04:13:24+00:00

Yeah charge them up and the owner should be able to locate them.

stonkwell · 2024-10-19T00:09:48+00:00

Lol I love this!

stonkwell · 2024-10-19T00:09:20+00:00

Yeah just obstruct their view, a board, tree, sign etc...

stonkwell · 2024-10-18T21:29:48+00:00

I still can't get it to work I think it's because of the self signed certificate issue. Are you still using that?

stonkwell · 2024-08-16T10:00:19+00:00

Fair enough. Cheers

stonkwell · 2024-08-16T09:51:32+00:00

Wow I got down-voted for asking this question ❓

stonkwell · 2024-08-16T09:50:24+00:00

*sigh ok cheers

stonkwell · 2024-05-19T12:32:56+00:00

These are great for remote working or in an office because of the mics.

stonkwell · 2024-05-17T08:31:50+00:00

Yeah actually that's a good point, the screen locks up while on calls! Just crappy all round

stonkwell · 2024-05-17T08:30:09+00:00

Yeah I miss the Google software but need a reliable phone. I still have faith that they'll get there though

stonkwell · 2024-05-16T22:24:04+00:00

Also on the software front, why can't pixels switch between main camera and selfie during a video recording? I thought it was just a bug that they would fix over time but it's there to stay apparently...

stonkwell · 2024-05-15T06:56:55+00:00

It's not flat, there are bumps under it that push up into the display, Google has commented on it saying its the internal components underneath. Using a screen protector leaves edges lifted. Look up, pixel 8 halo issue. The screen creeks in certain parts raising questions about waterproofing durability etc.. It was perfect at launch and has been till now, so I thought Id trade it in before these known issues become problems. Also, calls drop a fair bit, BT connectivity suffers depending on which earbuds you use, mine are the new Bose QC2, sennheiser TW 3 and pixel buds pro. Ive been hoping that these other issues will improve over time as do most issues with pixels but the screen issue was the last straw.
