Similar product, different experience: I tried their doorbell and found it to be way underpowered once I turned on ONVIF. Huge, expanding lag between real world and camera feed. 20fps max is very oof too, even if you are going to use their protocol and software. And it doesn’t work with physical chime boxes, so you have to use their plug-in chime or botch a converter together yourself.

Was really excited (trying to replace a nest doorbell) and then so, so disappointed once I got it. Their other cams might be fine but oof, the experience put me off.

I’m interested as well - family members have been looking for a while, and they keep finding products that I deem as… low-quality, for one reason or another, and my requirements are basically aligned with what you are building.

Please let me know when your solution goes live :D

Vista, followed by XP.

Next up, (cell) phone plans.

(though fuck landlines phones too)

And, since it’s a car and not a plane, also not so pilot.

Hello.

“to avoid learning new things, just learn these new things instead and repeat as needed until it doesn’t work anymore! duh!”

“why don’t you take your clothes off, then? You said you ‘have nothing to hide’, didn’t you?”

You can turn this wifi and bt scanning/‘location accuracy improvements’ off though, at least on android. It’s tucked away in the settings but once it’s done, it’s done.

Didn’t hang up and call Amex cs using the number on the back of the card. Didn’t hang up and call Barclay’s in the same regard. Believes a number that he is given when he is called by a number that has not verified. Somehow believes that fraudulent charges on a credit card can also impact a different account, at a different bank, and that the two companies would even be in contact with one another. Moves 39k for ‘safety’. Gives the person on the phone fucking access to his debit card via a digital wallet system. Believes that uninstalling the app will make him safer.

Holy fuck, and this man presumably prescribes medication, treatments, maybe even cuts people open? With this totally sound mind, his work record must be stellar, I bet he’s only blindly listened to patients without checking their claims a few dozen times this year, and only cut people open who didn’t need it 6 times so far since January.

And he is so upset, so distressed and pearl-clutching, that he refuses to believe that he is a dumbfuck, and is trying to sue over it. And, and, lmfao, the poor bastard has missed two vacation in the last 6 months because of it. Awwww, you poor moron, whatever will you do? And he had to start working on Saturday. He is just scraping by, honest, and it’s not his fault he’s a dumbfuck, it’s the evil bank and their account that he gave a random person on the phone access to!

lmfao

E: actually, 5 months. Two vacations in 5 months. Why does someone so stupid get such luxuries?

It’s the X13, not the X13s variant. Intel chip, generation two. The snapdragon is the 5G WWAN modem, not the cpu.

Ironically, a few months ago I wanted to setup Debian 12 on a ThinkPad X13, which feels like the most boring and stable thing one can possibly say. It installed just fine - but would fail to boot once installed. I absolutely require a cellular modem to work (I’m assuming this was the booting issue, but it’s a snapdragon X55, it’s been out… 4 years now?) and I tried 10+ other distros, which basically didn’t work/support the modem, so I ended up sighing and having to go with kubuntu.

I’m mostly happy with it (it ‘works’ and hasn’t broken yet) but I shouldn’t have to distrohop, read guides and get lost in a sea of dead links to (not, except *ubu) get WWAN working. It should work ootb, no fuss. So I expected Debian would have no issue, no bullshit. Bah.

That’s what I think when I read endurance/mtbf of hard/solid state drives of like 100+ years. Bitch you released this last week and I know for a fact that you didn’t withhold sales for 100 years for validation of your claims. Also funny how I should reasonably expect 100 years out of it, but you will only provide a warranty for the first three…

“some teenage idiots do teenage idiot things and die. fin.” roaring applause

A huge number of people like pussy too, but that doesn’t mean I want a button for it

(I’m gay af)

Stateside you get a 1y warranty from G, this hasn’t changed since they started the nexus (pixel) program. So when mine shit the bed, I was sol.

It was… minus the battery failures after a year or so of use. The 6P was supposed to be their foot in the NA market, and they fucked it. Mine failed, family members’ failed, friends failed. The LG was no better for that year, something about a mobo shorting after X amount of time with the 5X. Again, family members’ had them, failed.

I had a 1950X and 2950X, before my current cpu. It was fine, both barely even noticed that it was being taxed by games, like a 10-15% load where my 7800X3D is like 40-50%. Great for video rendering and stuff too, it wasn’t uncommon to do both at the same time and the system was still responsive and quick.

Now I’m not about to drop the kind of cash required to upgrade to a 32-64 core chip, and yet another board, as the prices went out of prosumer/high end enthusiast with 3xxx and beyond. And the fact that TR4 only lasted 2 gens when we were promised much longer service/upgrade lives…

But TR for games is the tits. Financially moronic but it goes baby, it goes.
