      For some reason I always can’t trust those auto generation/ OCR function. I prefer to types things out manually.

        It’s not OCR, no image to go by. Taking extracts from our manuscript (in word doc) and putting it in a poster to present at a conference.

    Mixed feeling about Sync

    First it’s a good app, ngl it feels like home.

    But the pricing of removing ads is ridiculously high, at RM98. The current price for Ultra subscription is also very steep, at RM82/year(or RM6.83/month). The app isn’t even in parity with the browser UI and yet he priced it so high with no regional pricing in mind for such a barebone app. I will get the yearly one but only after everything is parity with the browser UI, it’s crazy for me to pay for promise.

    On the other hand, i’m looking at Boost lol.

        Yeah, right now it’s not only no regional pricing, but every other place the price is much more expensive than USD. It’s supposed to be USD10.

              devs can always opt out and set their own regional prices. same with steam.

              only that when they do this it’s always to set prices close to currency exchange rate, not accounting purchasing power like steam does.

                This one a lot of region appear above the currency exchange though. Heard the current price is around USD19.99 but region like us and also i think Euro it’s around usd21.

      That is for ultra, so got a lot of extra tools. The dev mentioned there’s 3 tier, normal(with ads), pro(without ads), and ultra subscription(without ads and extra function). Pro will be out a bit later, i think until beta is done because there’s still no ads implemented haha

        I gave sync a try earlier and definitely did see ads. Ngl, I’ve gotten somewhat used to Liftoff (although collapsed comments reopen once they’re offscreen) and it’s not too bad.

        I’m looking forward to trying out Artemis once it’s out since it also supports Mastodon.

          Ahh shit, you’re right. The app advanced two version while i’m asleep lol.

          But yeah, very pricy in MYR just to get rid of the ads.

    I fucked up. Was trying to open the sim tray on my phone with like a plastic tip. Tip broke off and filled the hole. Was even dumber and tried to scrape it out with a staple and I think I just clogged it deeper. Can’t shake it out. Anyone got any ideas? About to give up and go to a repair shop when I’m back from vacation.

      IF you have a piece of fine gauge wire OR fine tipped tweezers, you can try again, BUT I can’t assess your mechanical skills so I say leave it for now because I have no idea what’s the state of the reader pins in that slot now.
