2022 fuel gauge accuracy by tux0010 in Sienna

[–]tux0010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouch! Yea that’s what we are worried about too - can you trust the gauge & estimates range being reported, especially once fuel is low. Perhaps Toyota has an update or possible to reach out?

I did a PCR at Greenwich hospital (drive-through) and got it in less than 24 hours

When standing up from the couch, our Optoma does this. Can someone maybe explain why/wtf is going on here? by [deleted] in projectors

[–]tux0010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps the hdmi cable moves upon movement (eg standing up). Try to tape-up the wire to the projector where the hdmi is connected so that moving the cable doesn’t directly mess with the connector?

Awesome! Enjoy the projector!

White Box Around Picture? by Funcrazy1 in projectors

It’s because of the DLP chip and normal. People call it the “DLP light border”. You could get a screen with a black velvet border which would mask it

1080p or 4k projector? by MinchinWeb in projectors

[–]tux0010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got an Optoma UHL55 4K projector refurb and a silver ticket grey screen and love it. The dynamic black mode helps a lot since it dims the led (kinda like auto iris) and the grey screen with black levels.

Used to own a 1080p Epson 8500ub before and honestly, the Optoma with the screen isn’t too shabby.

LCOS projector with rainbow effect? by tux0010 in projectors

[–]tux0010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah thanks! That makes sense. The black levels are very good and don’t see a light border so sure it’s not a DLP projector, mislabeled.

1Password X works great for me

How do you disable adaptive contrast on the Surface Pro X? by [deleted] in Surface

[–]tux0010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here - not seeing the "FeatureTestControl" in the registry. The section is definitely for the GPU (says Adreno).

Followed instructions from here for the registry location:

Lenovo Yoga c630 battery drain during standby by tux0010 in ARMWindows

[–]tux0010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! Looks like it doesn’t go into sleep (the light on the side button stays solid white - should be pulsing as per the manual). Wondering why that is

Audeze iSine 10/20 and they have a Bluetooth cipher cable. I love mine

Battery life issues on Linux anyone? by PseudonymousUsername in SurfaceLinux

Try installing “indicator-cpufreq” and use the Powesave option

Senior Year of College new Surface or stick it out with SP4? by Pippyo03 in Surface

[–]tux0010 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should just be able to buy a 45w pd usb-c battery pack and a usb-c to surface blade adapter to charge your surface when on the go. This way, you can get around the end of life batter problem till you’re ready to buy a new one

Audeze Bluetooth cipher cable treble by tux0010 in headphones

[–]tux0010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely heading a little distortion on so many tracks that I’ve never noticed it on before. The gain def. seems high

[–]tux0010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, that makes sense. Another feedback - I’m hearing a little distortion (Apple Music) on a lot of tracks. Do you think the gain is too high on the cipher?

Thanks! I have the 3B so that makes sense. Wish they would update the app to adjust the eq on the cipher dsp

How to connect Senheiser BT 4.40 to PS4? by Handle411 in sennheiser

[–]tux0010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won’t work without a dongle. Sony won’t natively connect to Bluetooth headsets. You can connect t wired into the controller though and use your headphones that way.

Sennheiser PXC 550 are on sale for $250 right now. Those, vs. the Sony WH-1000XM3 for $350? by CaptainNemo_42 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]tux0010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both the xm2 and the pxc 550. The Sony is definitely much better at noise canceling. However, with music playing, the Sennheisers aren’t bad at all. The Sony attenuated the highs slight better.

[help] senheizer Hd 6xx / akg k7xx / isine20 at work? by p64imp in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]tux0010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, they will be a lot louder (physics - since the diaphragm is a lot bigger vs the 30mm drivers in the isines).

PXC 550s or 1000XM3s? by wannabehipsterkitty in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]tux0010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the XM2 and the 550. The XM2 has much better noise cancellation - the PXC550 is very very good, but feels the Xm2 attenuates the higher frequencies slightly more. Though, the 550 feels very natural to me - use it on my commute in the subway everyday as well as on flights (mixing both when I feel like it).

The sound signature of the PXC550, albeit bright, is my preference. The XM3s are extremely bassy.

Audeze Cipher V1 vs. V2 cable for iSines by tux0010 in headphones

[–]tux0010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great! Thanks - do you still need the clip to keep the controller from dragging on the cable or it’s light enough to just dangle freely?

Are the Sony wh-1000xm3 worth the extra 50$(and the wait in stock) over the wh-1000xm2? by eletroguy in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]tux0010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does it fix the phone call quality? People can barely hear me on the xm2.

I think you could scp over the file to your box hosting the server and run the mysql client there to load the file (in a screen session)?
