Newer reviews can be expected to be ongoing projects, with minor additions or corrections.
Note: When I rate stuff, a 10/10 does not indicate perfect in an absolute academic sense, but as in (at least) as good as could be expected at the time, minor flaws allowed. For portable devices typically limited by the size and weight. Value for money also counts. An electronic device that got a high score in 2005, most likely would seem like pure trash ten years later….
- BlackBerry Priv, 5¼days stamina, no tricks. Display on 50m/dayContinue reading...</p> <p> </p> <p>
The BB Priv has a pretty nice stamina, if it is not too infested with bloat (mine is debloated).
Though some complains that a 3410 mAh battery is too small for a phablet with a 5.4″ QFHD display, it is enough for me.
5¼ days on 96% battery
This is with no trickery of radios off or similar. 4G, WiFi, NFC all turned on. GPS off though. ADD: BT off too.
- Phillips BDM4350UC. Mini review. An even greater monitor…Continue reading...</p> <p> </p> <p>
This 42.51″ IPS has substantially better viewing angles used close than its 40″ VA predecessor, but poorer blacks, otherwise much the same.
- Android vs WPD bug. Wrong filesizes reportedContinue reading...</p> <p> </p> <p>
I stumbled upon a strange bug in what Android can report to e.g. Windows trough the MTP/WPD interface.
Under some circumstances it reports a VERY wrong file size, but if you by WPD open a stream and copy the file until it sends no more bytes, it returns the correct full content.
- Fix for windows update issues, e.g. KB3213986Continue reading...</p> <p> </p> <p>
Many people are experiencing issues installing the cumulative update KB3213986
And there are a lot of pages on this suggesting the usual stop/rename/start stuff, but that did not do the trick on a machine I had to fiddle with.
The answer was .NET – again !!!
- Windows display scaling blurring legacy programsContinue reading...</p> <p> </p> <p>
Windows display scaling is great for programs that support it. But certainly not for all.
Especially legacy apps get blurred, so use integer only, if possible!
Blog in English (well sort of, bare with me, non-native…), a few earlier than 2010 are just blunt copies of the source texts in Danish – Google translate helps here….
Collecting of old stuff started May 2015. Entries are generally attempted dated with original stamps, even if they are somewhat updated since, several reviews have been ongoing ‘projects’.
