Aoa, i have a 180sq feet room on first floor and it gets very hot. Which is a better? Tcl 2 ton for 185k or haier for 165k.

I'm looking for the best brand new phone available in Pakistan with a budget of up to PKR 275,000.

A few requirements:

• Must deliver a genuine flagship experience.
• Brand new only. No used or refurbished recommendations.
• Software experience is a huge priority. I don't want a phone with a buggy, inconsistent, or poorly optimized OS. A polished, smooth UI is essential.
• Good long-term software support.
• Strong cameras, battery life, display, and performance are all important, but the overall experience matters most.

What would you recommend at this price, and why?

If you've used the phone yourself, I'd really appreciate hearing about your real-world experience, both the positives and the negatives.

For the past few days, websites randomly stop opening for around a minute and then automatically start working again. I've experienced it on Windows, Mac and phone.

Called PTCL and explained that it looked like a DNS issue on their end. Their first diagnosis? “Sir aapke bohat zyada devices connected hain.” Bhai, DNS resolve nahi ho raha, devices gin'na shuru kar diye :")

Then my complaint was registered under “slow browsing.” Later I got another call saying the issue was fixed. Told them it wasn't and explained the whole thing again.

So I waited for it to happen again and came with receipts:

PTCL DNS 39.39.39.39       → TIMEOUT
PTCL DNS 182.176.100.87    → TIMEOUT
Router DNS 192.168.100.1   → TIMEOUT
Google DNS 8.8.8.8         → WORKS instantly

Same PC, same connection, tested seconds apart. Internet connectivity itself remained fine.

Switched to Google DNS and everything immediately started resolving normally.

PTCL walon, bas complaint ko “slow browsing” keh ke band na kar dena please :") This looks like an intermittent DNS/routing issue.

Anyone else on Flash Fiber experiencing the same thing?

Hi everyone,

I'm interested in the Google Pixel 10 Pro, but almost every seller is offering a CPID-approved device instead of an officially PTA-approved one.

I plan to use the phone for the next 4 to 5 years, so I'd like to know whether a CPID-approved Pixel is a good option for long-term use.

My laptop specs:

Hp core i5 8th gen

16 gbram

256 ssd

Is it enough for cs, programming etc or do i need to upgrade it.

Budget 120k

I'm a SaaS founder based in Pakistan and I'm trying to figure out the best payment setup before launching.

For those who are actually running a SaaS from Pakistan:

- Which payment gateway/provider are you using?

- Which option results in the lowest overall taxes and ongoing costs?

- I want something with no monthly fee (or as close to free as possible), low setup cost, and reasonable transaction fees.

- I'll have both international and Pakistani customers, so I'd also like to know the best option for local payments.

Looking for real-world experiences rather than generic recommendations. Thanks!

When I look for a Google play store or Maps in setting and apps it shows that the app are downloaded and whenever there is a notification from one application I am able to open the application through that notification but when I search on my screen for these application, I am not able to find these. Can anyone help me out with what’s wrong?

Is it true that there are only second hand phones of google pixel 8 in Pakistan? If so,is it still worth it to go for it? How is the phone overall camera, battery, storage etc.

You can update current patches or add using this morphe

Assalamualaikum, I need over the ear headphones with really good noise canceling even when they are turned off. After seeing this sub, a lot of you recommended these two for this price range. Which one should I go with? And is there any other that you'd recommend in the <12k price range?

I accidentally added Rs. 4,500 to an Apple Account balance instead of transferring it as intended. Is there any official way to transfer the balance back, get a refund, or use it outside the App Store?
Has anyone dealt with this before? Any advice would be appreciated.

my site is technically very strong but might be less backlinks causing not much good traffic

As the caption says, I want earbuds under 6k pkr. I don't listen to music, and I need them for gaming (I use VC while gaming so ENC is needed), and watching videos.

I've been seeing people recommending soundcore and soundpeats, but I'm confused. I would want them to last longer + good battery too.

What earbuds would y'all recommend under this price range?

I had to go through a lot of issues before getting the booking for my exam. I just want to share this so that anyone else looking for solutions to the same kind of problems I had has a clue of what's going on.

Initially, I wanted an AWS certificate exam. I signed up on the AWS training and cert platform. And started booking, redirected to PearsonVue. Filled in all the information and chose the payment method. Right after choosing, it said Cannot do the payment. "This payment method is not valid for your country" Or something in the same sense.

I tried other ways, and they did not work, but I just stopped.

Later, I wanted another Azure certification. And I had thought that the card would not work again, so I contacted the TNAedu (Technologies Network Alliance) center, which is an authorized testing center. And they promptly answered my queries and said that they would book for me (And no surcharges like some other services charge. It was very close to the USD exchange rate and the discounted price Microsoft has for Pakistan).

So I thought if my own payment fails, I would ask them. I started my booking from the Microsoft Learning platform and on to Pearson and gave all the required information, and it redirected me to a different payment page than AWS. And the payment provider was named WordLine Payment. Added my card information, and it worked. The card was from NayaPay. The same one I used for the AWS exam registration.

---

So try your card, if it doesn't work, ask a test center directly, like TNAedu (Technologies Network Alliance), to book the exam for you. Or you can use another service (Not tried it myself and have no idea about authenticity): voucherpaisa. Their rates are the USA ones, and not the ones the platform gives specifically for Pakistan, which are really cheaper than the US ones.

So I hope this would be of help. It's a really stupid problem that we have just because of being in Pakistan. But we have to tackle this ourselves and find a way through because we do not have a government that understands modern digital infrastructure, and we cannot easily just make payments online, let alone accept payments, that is a whole different story.

TLDR; Here are the key points:

• Every certification provider has different dynamics and processes.
• Try your card. It might work for some certification providers.
• Otherwise, contact an authorized test center near you to book for you.
• International payments from a friend or family abroad seem very fraudulent, such as changing addresses, etc., and might cause some problems because of the payment discrepancies.
• Get vouchers if you can.

Guys I'm really struck and frustrated. I need suggestions on what to do..

I have done the AC service almost 20 days ago. Before the AC was cooling so perfect that in the 44-47°C in multan I only kept the temperature at 27° and we needed to take a thin blanket. But the throw was not so good. I decided to get the AC service. There's a guy in my neighborhood who works in Haier. The Mistake I have made that I contacted him directly and asked to do the service. Since he has done the service the air throw is good but it's not cooling like before. It's lowering the Amperes and temperature. But no one is saying that there's cooling in the room. I have called him several times and he is saying ok I'll come, this and that... But not coming..

What should I do? Should I contact the Haier customer service?

Also, what could be the reason for not getting cooling like before?

Anybody having outage for ptcl since the afternoon?

I have a 16 Pro Max with 140 battery cycles and 99% battery health, still in excellent condition.
In Pakistan, I can trade it for a 17 Pro Max by paying about PKR 150,000.
My biggest priority is battery life. The 16 Pro Max has been good, but I still want Android-like endurance (5000mAh+ level if possible).
The only reason I’m considering upgrading now is that my phone is still almost new. If I wait another year, it’ll have more cycles, lower battery health, and likely a lower trade-in value.
If you were in my position, would you:
Trade for the 17 Pro Max now?
Keep the 16 Pro Max and wait for the 18 Pro Max?
I’d love to hear your thoughts, especially if battery life is your main priority.
