It's just guess work at this point, but I imagine Blizz will copy across your progress at the point they create the new seasonal shard. I doubt it will be a two-way sync between the seasonal and eternal realms, but I'd love to be wrong!
I have to lick my fingers to open those bags (unfortunately - it's gross 😅) so my current theory is because I have dry hands maybe that's making it more difficult for the sensor to pick up the prints.
As they were before, they weren't really worth the effort. Now they seem like a totally lost cause. Hopefully they'll measure the effect of these changes on player participation and rebalance them again.
Just to add to this, in the 7A settings menu there is an option to increase sensitivity. Go to Settings > Display > Screen protector mode and toggle the option on.
In my initial tests this has noticeably improved the accuracy of the sensor but I need to give it a bit more time before saying for sure.
I am actually, yes, and to be fair I'd not considered this. 🤔 I guess if it's the difference between having a scratched screen or a working fingerprint reader, I'd go with the former.
It blows my mind that they shipped it on the 7 and 7 Pro. It's not really acceptable on a mid range phone, let alone a premium one.
Don't feel bad, you were in a vulnerable position and even if it was a genuine request you shouldn't feel pressured to place yourself in danger.
If you really want to help the homeless, or ease your conscience, donate to Shelter. At least there you know the money won't be going towards someone's drug habit.
I would say as someone who's moved from a Pixel 7A from a 4A, don't waste your money. The fingerprint sensor is absolute shite (they moved away from the dedicated sensor) and I would say the phone runs too hot. Maybe if you don't care about those things, it's fine.
The 4A was (still is?) a far better phone overall.
Could pop the link in the sidebar of this community as well, I can't imagine anyone being offended by that.
Very cool! I am finding interactions slightly sluggish compared to desktop but that could be to do with the age of the phone and using Firefox.
I had a look at the ActivityPub W3C and I noticed the following paragraph:
For federated servers performing delivery to a third party server, delivery SHOULD be performed asynchronously, and SHOULD additionally retry delivery to recipients if it fails due to network error.
In this context is 3rd party server a federated server? I couldn't see where expiry came in but presumably if the pushes are async then the server sending the payload won't know if it succeeded or not (unless there's some other mechanism to verify message acknowledgment).
I don't think it's hardware, more brand and exclusives. The casual player bought a PlayStation 4, so they buy a PlayStation 5. The gaming enthusiast knows that there's just more varied and interesting games coming out on Sony's platform. In terms of performance, the Xbox also frequently under performs against the PS5 regularly (not by significant margins usually, but still) when on paper it should be the more powerful console.
Myself, I have an Xbox Series S along with a crappy old 1080p plasma and 3 years of Game Pass, and I'm at a time in my life where I don't have the time I used to to play loads of games all the time. I'm happy with the Series S, but if you're coming fresh to this generation of consoles, I can't see why you wouldn't just buy PS5 as that's where the games are.
