Anybody used the Anker MagGo Power Bank 10k mAh with he Pixel 10 Pro / XL

I have a Pixel 10 pro and am looking at picking this up during Prime Day, I was wondering has anyone got one of these and used it with the phone, how does it hold up, does the magnet work ok and does it charge properly as it should.

I ideally want to use it when I travel and it'll be so much easier to snap it on and chuck it in my pocket when not in use

This is becoming a very common sight on Android, any fix?

I'm starting to get this notification multiple times a day recently, its getting quite excessive upon clicking into the notification, i click next in the bottom right (as in telling it to try again after not changing any settings) and it always validates the settings and reconnects, I've included both the notification and the settings it always take me to, I've blanked out my email for privacy reasons.

But yeah, this is happening alot recently. Any ideas how to fix?

Any autistic learners have any advice on where to start

I have a look at the getting started guide, but for me personally, as an autistic person, just throwing loads of text at me doesn't work, I'm more of a practical learner, I learn by doing.

Do any autistic learners out there have an advice on where to start or how you begun your journey?

To the idiots bringing 2-3 year olds to the cinema to see Masters Of The Universe

You selfish self-absorbed assholes

Your kids are way too young to sit through a 2 hour film in silence and thus they ruin it for everyone else whose paying to see the film, one guy even bought his kids car seat in and strapped their very young child in so he could watch the film without them running around.

Just calling out the fucking morons who think this is ok to do, it's not good for your kids, it's not good for everyone else there, you're only doing it because you're a conceited twat.

Having issue with Microsoft account on Thunderbird Android, failing authentication frequently.

Randomly ill get this error, nothing prompts it, I'm assuming it's trying to sync and can't, the error I'm getting is

Authentication failed

Authentication failed for xxx@outlook.com. Update your server settings.

However if I just press sync in the bottom right hand corner it immediately works, I never have to change any settings or do anything else other than manually telling the app to try again, it's more annoying than anything else. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this, I've removed the account and also reinstalled the app and the issue still pops up, it's happening every day or two at the moment.

Best lens to make the a6700 a good company carry around

I currently own an a6700 with a Sony 18-135 lens and a tamron 11-20 but I find I rarely carry my camera around as it's alot to carry. I want a compact lens that has a little zoom capability and I can carry around with me alot of the time

Replacement for XM4s, budget around £300

My son is in need of some new headphones, so instead of him getting the new pair I'm thinking to hand me down my XM4s and get myself something new, I've tried the XM6s but they were pretty uncomfortable and so I returned.

My budget is about £300, I'm not an audiophile by any means but after something that is better than the XM4s would be good, sound quality, comfort and ANC are my main features, I listen to rock, punk, folk and musicals mainly as well as classical while I'm reading.

Thanks in advance

Are the elite controllers loud and clicky like the base controllers

Just a weird question really, I found the base controller quite loud and clicky compared to, for instance a PS5 controller or Switch controller.

Are the elite controllers the same?

Best compact digital camera for under £200/$200 for kid

My son is asking for a camera for his birthday, he's used my a6700 now and again and wants his own to take photos with, however I think a camera with removable lenses it probably a little overkill for him as he'll only be turning 8.

Can anyone recommend any point and shot, compact digital cameras for around $200, happy to buy used.

Budget: £200

Country: UK

Condition: New or Used

Type of Camera: Point and shoot

Intended use: Photography

End use: he sometimes takes pictures of rocks, so.....

If photography: or snails, had about 20 pictures of the same snail

If video what style:

What features do you absolutely need: nothing really

What features would be nice to have: able to take a knock or two would be nice

Portability: one he can put in his pocket, or mine when he can't be bothered to carry it

Cameras you're considering: no clue on the point and shoot

Cameras you already have: I have a a6700 but not for him.

Notes: basic with a few manual controls

So, was DQ VII Reimagined just too easy

I remember seeing the reviews when it came out, most of them kind of leaned on the they made the game way too easy.

I'm interested in playing but I'm very into great storyline, great game play, like the older final fantasy games (up until 9) chronic trigger, expedition 33, basically I don't want to waste my money on what could potentially be something not that great.

I'm sure the where do I even begin aspect gets asked alot, however i did look and i cannot find anything specific in relation to being autistic with possibly a mild case of ADHD rolled in so I thought it best to make a post.

My certain circumstances are I'm diagnosed autistic, and my brain wonders, i've just tried to do the first lesson of the NHK world, and after about 5 minutes my mind was on to what i needed to do alot.

I'm more of a do kind of learner, I don't do very well with just reading or someone telling me what to do, i've asked chatgpt and got a plan that i've put below

I got to Japan next March and would like to have a basic conversation or ask basic things while i'm there, hoping that if that goes well i'll continue to learn and hopefully be somewhat fluent in my first alternative language. Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated

I'm going with my wife and kid for my 2nd visit to Japan next year (their 1st) I have to rehash alot of what I've done before because they haven't, however I have requested that we can stay somewhere I didn't for 2-3 days and my wife has agreed.

I want to get a more non-touristy, realistic Japanese experience so I was thinking of staying in a town or village somewhere near a stop on the bullet train between Tokyo and Kyoto, does anyone have any recommendations of somewhere easily accessible by train and in between these two big cities.

Our son is quite lazy, he'll be happy to sit around and play games or watch TV most of the time, whenever we go on family walks and he doesn't want to do it, he'll say he's tired or he's ill and then as soon as we get back to the car he's magically all better or he's all rested, well tonight I've put him to bed and hour and a half early, we went for a dog walk earlier, my partner had a stressful day and he moaned the whole time so we told him if he's too tired he can go to bed after dinner so that's what we've done.

I've tried having a chat with him, tried to get him to admit he's lying and he just wanted to go home but he's standing his ground, changing his story to try and get me to sympathize, We've gone from, he's tired and multiple yawning, to his legs were tired, to he's rested now and he feels wide awake.

I don't want to put him to bed early but I don't know what else to do other than to call him out on his lies.

Can anyone else provide any insight
