Advide on how to play Nocturne in the Top lane.

I like Nocturne in general, as it is a champion with a lot of presence in the game due to his ultimate, and he can handle 1v1s most of the times. And so naturally, I tried playing him in the toplane and I'm really enjoying the idea so far.

Any advice on what items I should focus on, and how should I change the rune page in order to play Nocturne on the Top lane viably?
How should I adapt my item build according to each situation?

Also, do you have any suggestions on how the lane phase should be played?

Advice for playing against Tryndamere

Any advice on going against Tryndamere? It is so infuriating.
Even if somehow I bully him pre level 6, his cheesy criticals and heals makes killing him a 50-50 situation. After level 6 I just don't know what the fuck I'm supposed to do.

Looking for an upgrade for my Arctis 3

I've upgraded my Steelseries Arctis 3 Bluetooth edition from 2019, to a Steelseries Arctis Nova 7P, but I don't like it at all.

The T shaped USB C dongle blocks other ports in my devices, and the included long USB C to USB A cable is not a good solution.

The headphones keep switching from 2.4GHz to Bluetooth randomly.

Both wireless modes present interference issues sometimes.

And so, here's what I'm looking for.

I need a headset that has a wired connection. Preferably, the wired cable can be detached from the headset. It needs to support Bluetooth. I also need it to have a microphone as I use it a lot in meetings & phone calls.

Basically an upgrade to the Steelseries Arctis 3, and with the same functionalities.

Looking to upgrade from Xiaomi Mi Mop Pro.

Hi, I want to upgrade my old Xiaomi Mi Mop Pro from 2019, to something that can self-empty itself and that can handle carpets and light rugs, without dragging them around or getting tangled with it. I'd like for it to be self sufficient, vacuum & mop autonomously, so I only need to focus on emptying the tanks and doing it's maintenance from time to time.

I have been out of touch regarding this topic, so I'd like your help to purchase an upgrade that makes sense.

As long as it has a dust & water tank, it's able to self clean itself, and can handle obstacles better than the robots from 5+ years ago, I'm fine with it. I don't need fancy AI to e.g., avoid dog surprises.

Legion Pro 7i vs Strix Scar 16

As the title says, and given that I can get any of them for the same price with an RTX 5090, what laptop would you choose?

Apart from gaming, I do a lot of coding and text reading on the go, so I'm a bit scared of the Legion reflective panel, since I'll be looking at white text on dark backgrounds a lot.

Some issues with my Xiaomi 17

While scrolling for instance on Instagram, sometimes my phone decides to darken the screen and brighten to the max a single photo or video.

Does anyone know how I can turn off this broken "feature"?

​

Also, a completely different problem, some apps (mainly banking apps) take a loooooong time to load, show information, and execute actions. I don't have the same issue with my older Mi 11i. I've also tried other phones on Android 16 and this seems to be exclusive to Xiaomi 17.

Does anyone know how to change the HDMI in Costa Cruise TVs?

Basically what the title says, I'm on Costa Toscana, connecting my laptop to the back of the TV via HDMI, but I haven't figured out how I can change the HDMI port on the Smart TV. Any idea how?

Xiaomi 17 screen colours are very dull

Xiaomi 17 screen colours are very dull

Since I got my Xiaomi 17 a few days ago, I've noticed that something was off with the screen.

The more I looked at the screen the more I realised that the colours are just not right, they look sad and depressing.

They're mute, dull, desaturated and very greyish (yes, I know these mean the same thing).

I've tested looking at the same photos on multiple devices, like my old Xiaomi Mi 11i, my wife's iPhone 17 Pro Max, even my Retroid Pocket 5 😅

There are faint colours where on the other devices we can easily distinguish the colours, but on my Xiaomi 17 they all look gray.

I already disabled adaptive brightness, reading mode, and adaptive colour temperature but to no avail.

Is this a defect from the screen? Is it something that could be fixed by an update?

I saw several other posts on Reddit from others complaining about the same issue on the 17 series.

Update: this seems to be a panel lottery thing, because I compared mine to the Xiaomi 17 displayed on the store, and it was okay. Unfortunately I cannot return it, nor exchange it because it is not considered a defect i.e., they acknowledge the issue but can't do anything about it. Due to Xiaomi's poor quality standards I'm now stuck with this. "Thank you" 👍

Do all free restaurants in Costa Toscana serve the same menu & have the same quality?

Hi.
Do all free restaurants in Costa Toscana namely "Il Vigneto Osteria", "La Maremma", "L'Argentario" and "Le Anfore", serve the same menu? Do they just differ in the decor? Is the quality the same between them?

Looking for a phone on the 600-700€ range with a decent camera set

I'm currently aiming at either the Xiaomi 15T Pro or the Xiaomi 17. Don't know which one to go for.

My focus is on the camera, the build and screen quality. Battery life is also a plus, but as long as I don't have to charge the phone by dinner time, I'm fine with it.

For around 600-700€, do I have better choices?

Hi,

I need to replace/upgrade my Xiaomi Mi 11i.

The only standards I'd like to maintain would be the build quality i.e. needs to be sturdy and without plastics, not taller nor wider than the Mi 11i as I already think it's too big for me i.e., under 163.7mm x 76.4mm, and the screen quality must be good i.e., preferably no complaints about yellow tints, weird colors, flickering, etc...

The only "decent" upgrade I can find here in Portugal is the Xiaomi 15T Pro. Then there's the falgship Ultra version, but those are around 1000€ which I don't want to spend in a phone.

I'm open to other brands as well, it's just that I never had any issues with Xiaomis.
