The only place where I have encountered Dolby Vision content is in movies (downloaded from torrent sites). Personally I don't think Dolby…

I also run Qwen3.6 27B Q4_K_M with q8_0 KV cache (128K context) on RTX 3090. I get about 38 t/s. Backend is llama.cpp. My RTX3090 does have…

I use Perplexity with GPT5.1 reasoning for stuff requiring internet research (got 1 year free with Samsung), and I run…

What model does it run behind the scenes, and are you hosting it on a server you control, on a cloud VPS, or using an API provider? Do you…

Vodafone Prepaid SIMs have access to the NR SA n28 700MHz network (I tested it on the $320 plan), it might be a good alternative.

For Samsung best time to purchase is at release, so if you can wait a few more months for the S26 you'll get much better value. I got the…

The issue with most overseas phones isn't the frequency bands used in Australia being unsupported by the phone. Most overseas phones do…

I probably would consider other brands too, now that Samsung is starting to put ads in their fridges in the USA.…

I bought 2 powerades in separate transactions and 1 fanta, out of the 3 receipts I submitted only the first powerade tracked properly in 30…
