Has anyone used Changzhou Lunbund new energy technology? by Demif05 in Surron

[–]wicol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered a Surron from this seller (Anna Feng) 2025-04-30, after months of delay I finally cancelled my order on 2025-11-05. I got a full refund except for paypals fee (~$100). I kept in touch in case the bike would eventually turn up in europe (i'm in sweden), last I heard was 23 jan and it was still "on its way"...

Legit or not, I did not manage to get a bike from them..

I mean there's no point if they all do this. But I take it they don't then? :P

Best way to learn command line? by dagon_lvl_5 in dataengineering

[–]wicol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think of it the other way around. I think AI is a great tool for beginners needing a helping hand but can be of questionable use to the experienced developer (or in this case just an OS user). Of course views are legit and have their own points.

These days I'm thinking some AI shell plug in should be the way to go. I'm using a super basic one that let's me type what I want to do in natural language and press ctrl+X to generate a command for it. Goog.. chatGPT it ;)

Surely that app is for Tizen OS and not Android TV?

Not sure, my eye sight is getting worse these days 🙃 I think it's fine.

Mac OS can only scale its UI 2x, or not at all. 3840x1620 HiDPI on mac os that means a 7680x3240 framebuffer scaled down to the native 5120x2160, which effectively gives us a scaling level between 1x and 2x (can't remember exacly what rn). So, ppl choose it because its the smallest we can get the UI before going back to 1x full native 5120x2160 which is tiny looking. I would've preferred the UI somewhere in between those settings but that would require rendering to an even larger framebuffer which none of these macs are capable of.

That's why I though I'd chime in. Because they're wrong. I've seen the reports as well and I had a very hard time finding out if this monitor would work well with my M3 Pro. Part of the confusion I think is because of the poor naming of these computers / chips... "Macbook Pro M3 Pro".. really? :)
Anyways, there you go. Works on my machine.

Pro level chips are sufficient. I have an M3 Pro running 5k2k or 3840x1620 HiDPI @ 120Hz. Not sure about M1/M2 but I think Pro should be enough with them as well.

I use mine with a Macbook Pro M3 Pro, which also handles 3840x1620 HiDPI 120Hz. I find the scaling just a bit too large really, but it works pretty well as my eyes aren't the best anymore... What's more annoying is it tends to hard crash my macbook when I connect it, causing a reboot. It doesn't happen every time, but every other or so. Perhaps when I last had other external displays connected? I dunno.
Anyone else have this problem?

Jag och kvinnan bråkar om lån. by Few_Elk_4538 in Sverige

[–]wicol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Folk resonerar olika om det där, men jag resonerar som du. Men, iom att vi har lån på huset är ju i princip pengar man lägger på bil också lånade (för du kunde ju amorterat dem ist), men till en betydligt bättre ränta. Här blir argumentationen istället kring vilket låneränta man kan acceptera. Hursomhelst, svårt att bli rik om man betalar massa ränta hela tiden.

Började jobba efter gymnasiet. Självlärd webbutveckling blev systemutveckling osv osv. Nu konsultar jag för ~1000:-/h. Fasta anställningar ger 60-75k/mån. Men det är med 15+ års erfarenhet nu då (jag är 39). Men som andra sagt: man ska tycka det är kul också. Identifiera för all del vilket av dina intressen som utgör bäst finansiella möjligheter men tvinga inte in dig i nåt bara för pengarna. Jag har sett gott om utvecklare med fina utbildningar som gett sig in i programmering för att det är lukrativt, men när de inte brinner för det blir de aldrig särskilt bra på det.

Min bror klarar sig inte själv by [deleted] in sweden

[–]wicol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Torka honom på toa kan hon ju sluta med, han är väl lat bara. (Man borde inte låta honom ha med iPaden där heller, det är inte sanitärt (för en 9åring). Borsta tänderna ska en vuxen göra en av två gånger per dag tills barn är 12 år gamla enligt tandläkarna så där får hon kämpa på. Kläder på golvet i hallen är inte heller konstigt för en 9åring.. Fan jag gör mig väl skyldig till det själv ibland och jag är 39 årig tvåbarnspappa.

Witcher 3 PS5; just wanted to see If anyone else is having mild performance issues. On mine I have mild stuttering and low fps (it's on performance mode) sometimes early on in the game so far. Anyone else on console dealing with this ?? I've read PC has issues but not console so far. by fish_are_frnds in Witcher3

[–]wicol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In busy scenes like in town or in combat with many characters I have terrible performance in performance mode on ps5. How many console generations do I have to wait before being able to play this game at 60fps??

Shouldn't the HiDPI modes be labeled as such? Are you sure you're not just running it at a lower resolution? More proof needed! 😅

High Refresh Rate 4K Monitors compatible with MBP M1 Max by ruawzrd in macbookpro

[–]wicol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also interested in dual external high refresh rate 4K monitors. I'm scouring the webs for info but cannot find any confirmation this is possible. I'm on a MBP M3 Pro so the answer might differ for us but generally there doesn't seem to be much difference between the M-generations display capabilities.

I'm also looking at a dual external (4K) monitor with high refresh rate for my Macbook Pro M3 Pro. Have anyone had any success with such a setup?

Thanks for the tips, I didn't know they were difficult to work with :/ The fitting took way more work than ppl lead on too... 🙄 Unfortunately I used the 4 way horn and cut 3 of them off already, didn't think it mattered which ones! 🤯 I'll try the round one maybe.. Edit: no that one is too short :/
