    How’s the battery ? Hearing good things. Also, how quick is the editing by AI like Magic Editor etc ? I believe this happens in the cloud, so is it instant or does it lag ? Saw MrWhoseTheBoss recent vid, and he mentioned some major issues faced during photo editing (most of the new stuff is on...

    YouTube tests disabling videos for people using ad blockers

    Totally agree with this. While 15 years ago I was happily rooting and jailbreaking phones and trying out new stuff, being nearly 40 and trying to find time from work and family, Google’s (or for that matter anyone else’s) data collection is the least of our worries. Most people have some version...

    Aren’t 8/8 Pro more expensive than previous phones ? 8 Pro is hitting 1L in India. Not sure how many units will be moved with that amount.

    Legit question - how many pixels have you seen in the wild ? For all the AI chops it has, market penetration is extremely poor. And I still love my 2XL and 4A.

    The book I am reading currently

    This is what I had to fight to save some 10 years ago. Twice these numbers were already sold to a kabari for peanuts. We all have been there. :D

    The Lego (and Knockoffs) Thread

    I always mark as gift for the last few years. Yet they arrive in pathetic condition, with just a paper envelope. My exchange/return rate for Lego is over 90% with Amazon.

    The wet shaving thread

    Got this bad boy - IT IS HEAVY ! Quick review after 1 shave (hair growth over 3-5 days) - it is not as aggressive as reviews make it out. I started at 2, and had to move to 4 to get a very clean shave. Definitely needs pre shave lubrication as it doesn’t glide as smoothly as my previous razor...

    The Lego (and Knockoffs) Thread

    Bought and had to reject delivery for all sets are they came in as if steamrolled by Hulk. Usual issue with Amazon, shipping items worth tens of thousands without any protection, and a ketchup bottle with 200 layers of packaging. Many chaps did receive undamaged packaging, so YMMV. It was a...

    Yes. Banger sale. Only wish is more 18+ sets should have been on discount.

    The book I am reading currently

    Found a treasure trove of old comics at my native place. Whole box is just comics and more comics. <3

    The book I am reading currently

    So got these to try and finish both the series.. But both continue further with new comics. SMH. Parv is definitely a better written and drawn series than Sarp. Nitin Mishra’s magic is clear. Also got these two for nostalgia’s sake.

    Apple Wonderlust 2023 (12th Sept'23)

    Yeah. Sporadic cases of overheating. Not good. Geekerwan’s analysis shows that the TDP is much higher than SD8g2 or previous A series chips.
