Added Flipkart to tracker bot
/cc @Jigsaw
Edit: If anyone sees any issues, please let me know. FK website has a trickier layout.

There was a surprise drop on amazon FK last night. About 7 hrs ago so approx 2am.
Did anyone here get lucky? Seeing on twitter some folks did.
@Shantz bro is your tracker still on?
Tracker is on but I haven't added flipkart support. Also I had slowed down amazon seeing the page was 404, let me bring that up to full speed.

Lol...but I’m assuming it’s quicker when there is a precedence
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkThis is not exactly a precedence. In this case, Amazon backed out because of price. In case of RD, they backed out because of stock availability.

Did anyone actually buy a switch lite for that 15.5/16.9k price? I think it was a ruse by amazon. I was able to see the price 3 times but it didn't let me add to cart even a single time lol

Was this before the apartment was handed over, because this seems like major work once you've moved in!
After handing over. I got my own interior guys to do it. It was pretty major. Took around 2 weeks just for this.

Oooh I play Apex Legends online. I mean, ping and latency hasn't been a problem but if I switch to wired via ethernet cable I assume it'll be EVEN better?
Currently my PS4 Pro is connected to 5Ghz Wifi, and I get 60 ping on Middle East and South East Asia serves.
I used to play on living room TV, but now I play on monitor at my desk, so I can theoretically connect ethernet cable.
I just plug one end into monitor, other into PS4 and voila?
Wired should be much better. Also you'd get stable latency. wifi can keep going up and down depending on which segment you get onto for each transmission, interference requiring re-transmission etc.

That's actually the best idea. I got my hardwiring done externally (patti along the edges of the walls since painting was already done). Will do the concealing next time when i paint.
Haan, I had that PVC external piping in my last house for the wiring. For the new one, I got the interior guys to run the cables through existing ducts + chip the wall and lay the cabling inside the wall.

Arre just amazon basics it. 50 feet cat 7 and
Na I don't need it. I have cat7 in-wall wiring done throughout the house and a separate cat7 roll to crimp my shorter cables for end connectivity, custom length so they are just enough.

Great. More kharcha.
Buy a roll, connectors and a crimping tool. Keep making for cheap

How often do people actually use the 3.5mm jack on the PS controller? Or is it actually something which everyone uses?
Also is it inconvenient to use wired headphones with the controller or it works out just fine?
I use it pretty often. I have a turtlebeach PX5 that I can use for wireless but I feel the port on controller just leads to much simpler solution.

True but I'm at loss on why MS is getting the cop for this. Aren't they not doing the same thing aside of that disclaimer about internal use and all?
Why should a user think they can create an ID that already is claimed by someone else?
It's because of MS's messaging. They don't say anywhere that the numbers are because the id is already used by someone else. They just show grayed out numbers (which is dubious itself) and also have a message saying that these numbers will be used for internal/legacy services etc. These 3 things together will confuse any user. They confused me for a moment though as well but I decided not to go for it and chose something that didn't show numbers.

Basic rule of thumb then. If the ID is already taken by someone else, there's no way other than to accept either a minor tweak in the spelling or a suffix Or simply come up with a new one altogether.
Yup. PSN does that.
-
It's not just the grayed out thing. They even claim something that is very confusing. Something like the numbers will be used only for internal/older services or something. So the user may feel that for regular use they will get the regular id without the numbers.

Query: When I connect wired headsets to the controller, some of them don't seem to work. The ones that work seem to cause audio to come out of main sound system as well as headset and I've to mute the audio system manually. There's no way to just switch to headset purely? I didn't seem to find anything in the settings.

Is the battery removeable for charging like this Black and Decker one or does the whole thing have to be docked for charging? I don't really have a wall space with a plug point nearby for docking.
No, battery isn't removable. But you don't need to "dock" it per se. I just keep the gun-type top part connected to adapter in the store room on a table. The adapter/charger is just like any pin-type charger.

Yeah, those are a life saver. I use a roborock S5 max for the floor duties. Scheduled it to start every night after family's asleep and it goes on cleaning in the dark.

Anker: https://www.amazon.in/dp/B07ZCW9GPW/?coliid=I39AOIWQHY0UI6&colid=353XYENDT2VR8&psc=1
Karcher: https://www.amazon.in/dp/B08M1G4YTB/?coliid=IWQNTE7RV1P4Y&colid=353XYENDT2VR8&psc=1
I know they won't compare to the larger ones in terms of suction but since my requirement is mostly fur and cobwebs and since I'm tall enough that I don't need an extension, I'm curious if these will suffice.
I had looked at both of these, but given their suction and dust holding capcity, they seemed more suitable for cleaning things like desk etc so didn't take a chance

On the other hand, I just tried resume in gears. sweet baby jesus. It was awesome. Played gears, backed out to home, played forza, shut down console, power up console, go to hears. Voila! back to where I was in seconds.

I think this kind of username XxX....XxX with varying amounts and case of "x" was made popular by xbox (and maybe halo multiplayer?) or something. I see most of the people from xbox world with this kind of id.

What's wrong. Everything is fine.
It feels so cluttered everywhere. Also when you click on your gamertag/profile icon at top, it opens up a window and then a pop up on top of that window
The App is quite forgetful as well. Half the time it doesnt show me the games installed on the box. And they have a gamepass app and an xbox app :|. There are several other quirks which I am too lazy to write down.

BTW, how horrendous is the xbox UI and the software (including the app) in general. I mean I used to think PS was just about average and thought that they are primarily a HW company, probably that being the reason. But after seeing the stuff that xbox is putting out, even being a core software company, God!

Ah that's why I thought you had already received your box when I got mine
It showed you (or whoever that other person is) playing WoW (and they keep playing WoW all the time, like ALL.. THE..TIME)

Thanks for the feedback. Would you recommend this? What other Dyson alternatives did you consider
Only looked at Dyson v7 and v8. v11 was too expensive. As of now I can recommend it based on it being ok for my need. I feel it's cleaning pretty good and has a decent battery life. One thing that's a slight con is that it doesn't have a "flexible tube" accessory and it doesn't lie completely flat (goes max at ~10-15 degree angle) which may be a problem if you have a wide furniture with very low bottom clearance.

Games need to support this quick resume stuff right? It's not there automatically for all games? Asking because my son's playing megaman 11, and it doesn't really have a save system so he was depending on quick resume but it starts off from beginning every time.

All things said and done, if this is a widespread issue, can't rule out an inside hand. Someone in supply chain colluding to do a return fraud. There have been known instances of this in paytm and flipkart earlier. Amazon should be harder but then we are in India.
