Callum... it's social media. They don't need access to your shit to know. You're willingly spilling the beans by visiting, liking and posting 😄
Yes but cookies dont leave the container so using different sites via the extension doesn't affect other tabs
So tracking is not outside of that tab
ofc fbook are tracking your likes, comments etc
but anything outside of fbook cookies are not tracking you, everything stays within that container and when you open new links etc its constantly making a new one
privacy is a nice thing to have even if you dont have much of it

disney+ doesn't work with linux thanks to drm lol
The mouse strikes again
What do we learn from that? Don't support stuff with DRM
Netflix has the same drm
And amazon prime stuff
Disney just uses a higher security level
Will probably get "fixed" in a month with an android emulator thingy
Urgh
Is it possible to make sure that, when the displays turn off after inactivity, and then turn on again, Windows don't hop between displays?
Every time my PC is idle and turns off my displays, my browser hops from the right to the left display
@zenith sonnet sounds like your display is actually turning off, not going into sleep mode, and the pc no longer sees the display
Otherwise it should preserve the desktops
Have you tried percussive maintenance
sounds like you need to invest in an electric blanket
or better yet... electric sheep
or memory
once i had a stick of ram that froze my laptop.. it ran fine on memtest86+ for hours.
But if that stick was in my laptop, it froze after a while...
My buddy had a random stick that caused bsod. Once he finally got rid of it it never came back.
Which 2x 16GiB or 4x 16 GiB RAM kit would you guys recommend?
I think it's more like a question of 'Which Trident Z Royal kit should I get?' at this point? Are there comparable alternatives?
And every other week they release a new high end kit...
Yeah... I stopped caring and bough the best variant of 3600 I could find at the time.
I.E. "The kit that Samsung makes the dies for at as low of a CL as possible within reason"
ryzen 3000 or different platform? if former you can start by ignoring all kits with higher rated clocks than you will need
Oh yes. I've watched him since he started doing Sims stuff. 😄
oo!
also, corsair dominator is a 2x16 option that could be cheaper than trident z and still be good, not sure if they have 4x16
Not as purdy though imo
The Doms LEDs are much more in your eyes eye piercing light. The TridentZ and Royals are more matte.
yes but I dont care about looks on my ram lol
mine dont even have a cover, it's just bare sticks

Either Ryzen 3000 or TR 3000
Not sure yet
X570/AM4 doesn't have much live left
Zen 3, then it's a new socket
And Zen 2 > Zen 3 won't be a worthwhile upgrade
That it is
It won't loose all it's relevance over night
TR40 will probably be at least equal, though
With that in mind, TR40 might not be compatible with Zen 4 as well
Hmm...
Everything sucks
I said might
If they prepare it correctly
But yeah, can't really plan ahead for an upgrade to Zen 4 with what we have
Hmm, only if they don't get Zen 4 ready in time
Which I doubt
Given how they already boasted it being on track for 2021
With intels current plan
We get a 10th gen
Which is a decacore 9th gen refresh
And 11th gen
Which apparently will be a refresh too
Refresh of a refresh of a refresh
Intels plans after that aren't solid
If AMD can squeeze in Zen 3+ or smth they will
Well
Atm intel already refreshes skylake
From 2015
Every year
Atm AMD has market dominance
If they can keep it going for the next two years intel might be in a bad position
Intel will be fine, they sell enough through their OEM channels
But enthusiast desktop they're like 20% nowadays
Mostly people who 'only buy intel because AMD bad'
Met them irl, too
Weird folk
Mindfactory has public numbers
And intel is pushed back in the OEM market
Because they don't deliver
i mean intel doesnt focus on desktop anymore anyway
their main "innovation focus" is server
and business
not consumer desktop
@zenith sonnet you seem to be suffering from choice paralysis :p
Yeah I don’t remember how many months ago he started looking at stuff and still doesn’t know what to get
Oh, I knwo intel doesn't focus on desktop
they have bad delivery problems though
so much that HP only made AMD servers for a while
for high end tasks
Yup putting 14nm fabs to 10 and 7 when the first one has delays isn’t great for making enough stuff, but it’s not like they can’t push it forward either and stay even longer on 14
well
they still are comitted to 14nm
for at least 2 more years
they slooooowly shift into 10nm rn
but only in the notebook market for now
Sure but even that’s a decent marketshare, also custom chip designs and IoT takes a lot that we don’t know much about
@halcyon moss @ashen spindle It could all be over yet if the stuff went to market yet...
You say that but even if threadripper is on market, we still wouldn’t know if next gen works on it lmao and since you are already thinking that far ahead something like that will always be the case
they said they would be incompatible with last gen
on treadripper
but im still waiting on 3e gen to drop so depending on the price i can go for a 3e gen set ip the preformance is far better
but i doubt in my use case that it would be so i probably will just get a 2e gen cpu and board
All anybody know is that AM4 will almost certainly not support Zen 4, while TR40 might or might not support Zen4
There's unfortunately still no prices on the TR platform
And it's not just TR that's missing from the market, the 3950X got delayed as well...
Maybe because of AGESA 1004
Maybe they wanna get it right this time
🤔
What is a 3e gen? is that 3rd? but Dutch? :p
Yes I said next gen not previous on tr40, also it’s more likely the delayed it because it makes more money if you sell it in an epyc cpu than 3950x and supply shortage
just curious, wat are you doing with a threadripper?
I need to see how it performs, first
No idea if or what performance advantages it offers over Ryzen

Thread ripper is probably going to be quite pricy though
in the payment section it just asks for paypal email to send funds to
lol
Lets see if this works 🤷
I used a throwaway email on my paypal.... this should be interesting
no personal data was asked for
lol
We will see
I lost nothing
gave nothing away
and.... some places saying its legit, site checks out and they did contact me on linkedin too
i have heard of this before, they were drawn to me via my AR app
Usually i just delete but hey
no harm in trying this time
This is the almost final hardware for the PinePhone, it contains a new touchscreen and display which solves a lot of responsiveness issues. This version is s...
its soooooo slow
So expensive too
no i mean the librem 5
is expensive af
LUL 720p screen wtf
mmmm Pinephone

NO YOU
binary large objects
look you're going at this from the wrong angle
just get rich, if you have enough money you can make people not look at what you do 
yes but I didn't mean to use that in a way like becoming epstein 2.0 and then people like snowden won't happen because nobody would care
Are the Snowden leaks even relevant any more?
........ turned windows updates back on
😮
I kinda wanna buy the LG G8X with the Dual Screen
Yup
Ssds have made ruggedized laptops pretty obselete for most applications
The features are now things like data protection (like erasing/destroying in the event of capture/loss), emp protection, etc
You can drop most laptops nowadays and they will work just fine, sans cracked screen
Like police dont need panasonic toughbooks lol
ppl treat hardware like shit though
rugged laptops are more use in heavy industry or similar
it's a very niche market
and it costs accordingly, i.e. just like any other expenditure for a corporation
you also pay for the support, just like for any corporate product
you pay for it to "just work" and when it fails you pay for it to be fixed/replaced asap
i.e. that fancy shell is also heat resistance, oil resistance, dust restitance
and you need those
particularly the heat and oil
is it resistant to corrosive enviroments though?
the thick plastic would be enough im sure
no, you cant drop the device into a tub of descaling acid
well yea obv
but the device will survive a spill
I meant corrosive air
cant say that about other laptops
I was serious about having to servers die due to it
theres no way to protect it
youd need a sacrificial anode, on everything
or just inside and sorta hope it works
outside contacts honestly don't matter much
Linus did a video recently on the niche machines. And Alex? Reviewed one a while back I think.
lol
😂

what could linus possibly understand about the needs of heavy industry
well
heavy industry can be different
we ahve a ton of acids etv
so the air can be pretty corrossive
others have metal dust
gl protecting against that
we have a couple sorting machines

i wonder if a sacrificial anode would work (also open contacts made of pure gold)
if you put one on every single trace that isn't connected to anything else
plasticwrap it
in theory HDD platters could serve as one lol
if you rip that decompression foil off
ehhm
hdd have normal atmosphere inside
that is essential to the operation
for non helium drives
otherwise the head would scrape on the platter
it's been a while since i dissembled an hdd
it was like that since forever
that is why they have a hole on the m that you aren't allowed to cover
they often have a membrane under that to prevent liquid damage
@fair gull did you pay your google cloud with a credit card?
nope
gsuite is setup with bank account for me
and i found out
if the trial ends for you 10€ gsuite business
u can suspend the subscription
and if u had shared drives AND added a gmail account to them thats not in the gsuite organization
cause my brotehr was wondering hwo he could pay it
sicne credit cards in germany are uncommon
when the trial is over
altho we arent sure if the suspension can be done indefinetly
support said they wont delete it
but you cant be too sure
even then 10€ a month isnt bad
for unlimited shared drives and unlimited cloud storage
and the other bonuses of gsuite accounts
like managed android devices etc
@old marlin https://discordjs.moe/5UvhsUU3oe.png
That helps? Is blender able to use avx512 a lot?
apparently it works
a 7110 apparently is still quite a bit faster than a 2990wx
atm have a rendering server at work
in proxmox
with 40c
gonna hopefully get 80
not fast ones though
the 40c are ~3 times faster than my r5 1600 at 3.8 ghz
well
if ohis work
i'll get myself a server with like 4 of them
roommate would also have interest in that kinda compute power
ye
wtf
pastebin is blocked at work for me
still thinking how I can make a cheap af xeon phi rendering station etc
probably get an old hp z800
and throw the cards in there
got a better idea?
z820 might actually be better for that use case
what is a good tiem for the classroom benchmark?
dunno

Anyone knows anything about a Discord malware called "Spidey Bot"? It seems a new one to us...
cc @VK_Intel
discord thing to do\
"um yeah, we know our application can be broken and modified....but thats against the tos, so dont do it"
"so an application that uses our program to steal data due to a vulerability in our programing has emerged, were sorry, but there's nothing we can do"
"however, dont be an idiot on the internet"
like wtf
pmuch any electron program can be taken advantage of
its more a fault by design of using electron
easy fix dont use linux
windows sucks
apparently not as much as linux
apparently?
I am installing a different version of kwin
from the AUR
anything from the AUR needs to be built on the PC
if you use the normal repo it doesnt
plus most games dont run well on linux
if it would run better id switch
altho no i wouldnt
no sharex on linux
still using make in 2019
it works and you dont have to do in manually unless you get a package from github or somethign that doesnt have an installer script with it
I actually dual boot linux on my pc to provide a gaming free environment. If only it helped against chain watching youtube / shitposting on discord. Actually if gaming worked just as well on linux I wouldn't touch windows at all.
anyone's got a good study material for c#? i can do c and lua
https://www.youtube.com/user/IAmTimCorey is pretty good from what I've seen
also ReSharper as a tool is amazing to learn more, but not right when you are beginning
do you just want to learn it in general or do you already have usecases in mind?
finding something more specific is often easier, eg. unity or wpf
making basic, windows only applications that sometimes communicate with low level and C stuff
with basic windows interfaces
https://www.wpftutorial.net/ is nice to get into wpf which is really easy to use for basic interfaces
thanks
you can just drag objects via the toolbox in VS and dont touch xaml otherwise and just do the rest via c# if you want minimal wpf work
ooh neat
only know c++ as other c language so I cant directly tell you what to look out for
Properties for exposing stuff to other classes comes to mind, and LINQ if you work a lot with a lot of data, because it saves a lot of for loops and such
ty
oh and dont trust people who use "var" in c#
(exception if its used for a superMegaUselessStupidClassName and you dismiss it directly after)
But it's just so convenient!

Is there any actual upgrade from my RM1000i PSU?
The newer HXi series any better?
What about some Plat/Titanium PSUs?
NGL, i really want a 1tb microsd card or two.
i literally have no use for it other than maybe the Switch but it's like bragging rights
like 'Oh your phone has 128gb of storage? My sd card holds a terabyte.'
Does your phone support that?
most phones support up to 2tb
Phones have supported that for fuckin a long time, ever since SDXC was an avaliable format
and i'm feckin amazed at the massive drops in price for these things. It seems everytime I turn around they're even cheaper. 512 is now ~90$. 128GB is only like ~20$. I remember my stepdad buying my 128gb microsd for my phone way back when and it was nearly 100$
Jesus tucking Christ, a developer for a theme I use is a little bitch
He cried about his public code being modified and shit
why even made your stuff public is thats the case
Everyone someone even posts a tiny bit of code he disables it for thousands of people
Every single fucking time
And stars going on a crying rant
He’s just wiped everyone’s theme out etc because I pasted a paste bin for support, he made it private on gitlab and invite only
And I got banned
What theme and for what software ?

I sure would hate for people to contribute to my publically available code.... that would be the wurst.
new monitor firmware
no patchnotes to be found anywhere
oof
Discord Themes by Satoru
@wheat plume
Done with thst theme anway
Every few weeks he has a tantrum
And disables the theme for everyone
So.... I should mirror the repo and self-host? x3
well if its open source it can be fixt
Effort tho s
Yup
Monitors have needed firmware since forever
What's odd about it getting updates?
Well moderm monitors are getting more and more feature rich
And you can update over hdmi and dp since forever iirc
Although mosy monitos support some kind of usb connection nowadays
USB is preferred usually
And I dunno what it added or fixed, couldn't find patch notes
so I'm looking into going for an ultrawide monitor.
My choices are the Viotek GN34CW or the Viotek GNV34DB
Both are 34" 3440x1440 100hz ultrawides.
The DB is a 1500R curve where as the CW is 1800R
DB has 99% sRGB and 85% NTSC where as the CW is 115% sRGB and 85% NTSC
The price is like 20$ difference
my ultrawide has a 1900r curve and its not enough
i'd have to see the 1500r in person but i'd probably want that
i dont know but 1900r is about half an inch of z axis change from the center to the edge
@digital cliff 1900 apperently means 1.9m, the maximum viewing distance before you lose the advantage a curved monitor gives you?
Mhm
One of the first reviews of Intel's new flagship HEDT processor, the Core i9-10980XE, just hit the web. Lab501.ro got their hands on a freshly minted i9-10980XE and put it through their test bench. Based on the "Cascade Lake-X" silicon, the i9-10980XE offers almost identical ...
3900X is trading blows with the 10980XE
very confused that there are no 9980xe values
@ashen spindle Because other than the turboboost and the DL instructionset, it's literally the same
hardware mitigations
All those benchmarks are done without mitigations to begin with...
which is stupid...
Otherwise they'd have to turn off HT for a lot of SKUs
?? I mean mitigations in the newest drivers and windows updates
Which is an official mitigation published by intel...
Well, yeah, reviewers tend to avoid those
uhhh no not really?
especially not since more attention came to it
either way, not putting a 9980 or 7980xe on the same chart makes no sense
Maybe they didn't have one? Those things are expensive
then add extrapolated ones if they have a lower sku or from a different review and just mark that as such a thing
We'll get more reviews soon, but those numbers look pretty legit
then again its a site that didn't care for NDA so not really something to care too much about
Still a leak, though
Still
It's barely faster than a mainstream CPU with 1/3rd less cores and half the price
And it's their flagship HEDT part
the cinebench score for the 9980xe is usually 3% higher (around 300 points) than that of the 10980xe there, so it's fairly likely that something is missing in the leaks @zenith sonnet
okay as much as I see its a bit complicated, what else do people want?
roll over? hard to do the first core series parts are still in use
hexadecimal : D
change name? to what? need a completely new naming scheme that would only mean you now need to know two sets of numbers to describe intel cpus by name
i dont see why they wouldnt simplify it in some way
the laptop ones are particularly boggling
Bro have you seen the SoC ecosystem?
if you got a better system let me know, since I cant think of one for the mainstrea/highend platform that would make sense
Qualcomm cleaned up their naming and it's still insane
Now with more RISC processors coming to mobile and laptops you just have to think like a computer, not look for patterns, or stop caring
i couldnt think of a worse naming scheme tbh
then it should be easy for you to think up a better one
I'm just confused that I've seen some people calling it 11th gen and some people calling it 10th gen - ice lake
mean while comet lake is coming out at about the same time
I have not seen anyone call it 11th gen
me neither until a couple days ago
I just rather hear the architecture code names tho
because people have been calling comet lake 10th gen but it's just another skylake re-use without all the same amenities of ice lake (I've been looking for a new dev laptop)
intel mixing up multiple uArchs in mobile chips all as i10- chips is a mess, but that's a different point since they are abusing their own system, the numeric names work otherwise and make it extremely easy to get a lot of data about any chip in the Core series, aside from certain exceptions in the middle
subsequent generations name schemes are gonna be... curious
with their claims to new amazing iGPUs
I'm predicting i7-11750g9
my guess is that with a good performing 10nm+ chip or 7nm if 10nm+ isn't that great they might change the branding of the core series
since that's where they start with raja's uArchs and the decoupeling of uArchs and process nodes
Make the model #'s like a MAC address
Series:uArch:generation:ghz
Then add a character for power consumption
H/M/L
Done :)
Of course it's really fast on a motorway but dogshit slow everywhere I actually nerd it

Funny thing is they used a Ryzen 3600X
Is In Stockholm rn
Does that mean AMD doesn't really bin the IO dies?
Oh jesus, playing outerworlds and my gpu is at 71c
Unreal Engine.... ofc it is
Am i the only one who hates silent characters?
...
It might actually do something, @pale sigil
Corporations tend to follow the path of least resistance - Aka. If a single state passes this, others might/will fold, and it will honestly be easier for Apple and the likes to just treat all states as the ones with the most consumer friendly rules to minimize costs.
You're in Stockholm? It's a great city.
I can recommend the Photography musem, if you're into gorgeous nature shots and such.
Lot of awesome cafés as well here and there - There's a viking style restaurant with long tables and live music. Just gotta reserve ahead.
71 on your gpu seems normal? means it boosting nice and giving you high framerates?
For an aircooled GPU that's golden
Weird
Graphics driver crashed, but recovered
GPU would stay at 570 Mhz though
Wanted to reboot
Then got a BSOD
mine is at 80c when I push for fps
Can someone explain to me the buzz about doby atmos
spatial sound, almost unlimited sound tracks and such, dunno specifics about it
guess you'd need compatible headphones to really take advantage of it
its more for cinema and speakers, dont think headphones are really a target
ohh
i had to switch to movie etc
and i can hear the difference
so you just used the app and stuff sounds better or what?
ah so for supported stuff? so I can ignore it
no? i use m50xs
no I meant, the movies needs to have it, aka games who dont support it wont sound different
Probably, but it also does 7.1 virtual surround
So if your game is bad at mixing down to stereo it might give you better results
ive always wanted surround sound lol
Yeah dolby atmos is encoded into the audio track
Much like how dts works
However dolby atmos for headphones is basically just software mixing for positional audio
Dolby atmos on hardware that supports it is different tho. You have upward firing speakers to create a better soundfield
That’s basically all that sets atmos apart from regular 5.1/7.1.
Most of you are probably too young to remember the zalman 5.1 headphones lol
They actually had front, surround, and center jacks lul
@pale sigil dolby atmos was oroginal about spatial sound with over 200 possible speakers, can be adapted to headphones quite well though
And works with any headphones
The games/movies have to support it though
Spatial sound is good
Perkele!
I use the windows sonic spatial sound for shooters
That doesn't look good @reef patrol
Replacing the pump just to be sure. Leak seems to be in the pump itself, not a fitting.
It ain't pretty, but it's functional for now.
That's what spooks me about water cooling
Something could start leaking and I wouldn't notice for ages
Eh, cpu won’t ever get hit if it leaks and if you have a backplate on your gpu that also won’t cause a short, so no really risk there either
Coolant could leak into the GPU itself though
Mh yeah I guess that’s true
But usually the cooler is below the card like on your pic, so less likely to leak into the gpu rather than just below it
But you’re right I didn’t think about that option
It all depends on where the leak occurs. Any fitting can be a leak. If the CPU block leaks, it drops down onto the GPU and inside of it worst case. Everywhere else is pretty safe in case of a leak in my loop.
It'll just leak onto the bottom and through the case.
Yes which is why I mentioned a backplate, then it’s mostly dripping to the side and worst case just shorts something on the pcie connector which is kinda harmless
Backplate won't help. The thing about water is that it doesn't fall straight down from an edge. If there's a gap beneath, it will go inside of that slightly.
my though is, that it wont drop right onto the back where capacitors for the chip are, so even worst case it's repairable damage
It's going to hit PCB and components on most cards.
It's going to touch parts if liquids drops in the area here.
true
but again, even worst case it shouldn't come in contact with the chip or the backside of where the chip is right?
It's still going to fry the board to the point of not being worth trying to save. Very rare case but it could happen.
hrm yeah probably, depends on what the pcb layout is
either way, there is a risk but it's usually fairly small
definitely gonna consider a nice loop for my next pc sometime next year or in two
Coolant is just glycol right? I don't think that will wreck anything
You're thinking of AIOs.
Loop coolant is basically just water and some biocide. Colouring.
Glycol is used in AIOs so they can mix metals 😄
is it possible to use distilled water as coolant?
0 dissolved solids = 0 conductivity
0 conductivity cant short components
Doesn’t really matter because once it leaks the water will get contaminated

Anyone know some good minimalist cases with a side panel?
I’ve seen nzxt but idk about many more
is x570 the out of the box chipset for ryzen 3rd gen
Actually most b450/x470 come delivered with the bios update
Also any board with bios flashback will work
Like the kind where you can put the bios on a flash drive, plug into special usb port and it flashes it
Can you run zen 2 on a board meant for ryzen 1xxx?
B450 is the minimum afaik
Ok nvm, apparently a b350/x370 would work IF it got a bios update
But that’s a big if
So its up to the manufacturer
Dont think they are much cheaper anyway so I guess a lucky few were able to upgrade from 1xxx to 3xxx without a new mobo
It "should" work on all boards in theory, but you'll lose support for first generation Ryzen as a result of the bios update beforehand.
Either way. Read up on your specific board before doing anything 🙂
with ryzen 1000 that is especially the case
my b450 board came pre-flashed. It had a ryzen 3000 sticker on it.
They have the Bose frames in this shop
Those sunglasses with Bluetooth earphones built it
it just is rebadged old CPUs
i go for core count
I have been on ryzen for a while
pretty great imo
much more versatile
doesn't lag behind much in games
@fair gull what do you need a threadripper for? always curious about this
Compiling obviously
tbh
at that point
there are xeon phis
that excell at that
you can just slot it in your current pc
aha
i want to get a threadripper just because
my first enthusiast system
with threadriper
totaly not going to use hashcat with it
totaly not going to log wireshark captures and attemp to capture passwords for other networks
probably mostly let it sit idle? 😉

Should I install a beta version of this Android 10 ROM?Or use the stable Android 9 version?
True true
I'm getting sick of the look and feel of MIUI
Even though I love the features it adds
It feels so old and clunky except for the status bar and recents app screen
my phone had a beta which borked the google safetynet
so better stay on android 9 until full release
Can I jam a 3.1 gen 2 type c on a 3.2 gen 1 type c header
Yes, all these distinctions matter
type c is the form
the rest is downward compatible from both sides
the same way u can plug a usb a 3.0 into a usb a 2.0
and vice versa
the same way you can use usb 3.0 c with the wooting 2 usb 2.0 c
Because I looked for like an hour for a good mobo with a usb type c header and it’s not the same as the case
?
those are standardized
give pictures
teh motehrboard header looks somewhat like this
and the case cable like this
sometimes angled
@old marlin theres also fpl usb3
sometimes also used for c and then extra stuff in the usb c end via extra pcb or smth
but thats the 2 headers youll find

better solution than a noth imo
although it basically removes water resistance atm
Ye
can get solved though
the 9T is already pretty good at it iirc
so may not be a problem in the future
udnerscreen camera would still beat it though
i love my m9t

no matter how much i delete the fingerprint and re do
good that i dont have a notch
even samsung calls it a notch
i hate notch's so much
I like the notch on my 7T a lot more than the idea of a popup
worst ever trend
But honestly... I wouldn't lose sleep over no selfie cam
same
@old marlin no the s10 has a Punch Hole
dont care tbh mostly know it as punch hole
still nto a huge fan
and its less noticeable than a notch
a notch doesn't bother me as much as I thought tbh
like i dont notice it myself anymore
same
only thing that still bothers me are the gestures
I liked the samsung ones a lot more than the huawei ones
what gestures
its still a freaking notch
not really
since the display can go round it
bigger fan of the samsung punch holes than the actual notches
especially hate pop out cameras
flimsy ass things popping out of a phone is never good
its not flimsy tho
is it tho
they aren't flimsy
its really not flimsy
if you break one of them you might as well broke any otehr phone
its pretty damn strong
Never taking that chance. Also if it ever gets stuck or seeps liquid.
well
like I said
liquid damage is the problem
although they basically solved that on the 9T
A phone should not have moving parts. Not since flip phones. Mechanics wear down and break - and it's one of those things that are never covered by warranty.
So you say. I don't see the reason to risk it in the first place.
well your choice
I get the concern
but I honestly doubt that the motor will realistically fail
Indeed. And that's why I went 7T instead. I genuinely don't mind the notch as an alternative 😁
underscreen camera would still easily beat it
and is entirely possible rn
but that will cost $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
True. That's probably going to be the long-term solution
Sio ye
Amazon offered refund vs repair
gonna do that and rebuy the pro
🤷
seems logical
wont get stuck ever
some really fine sand in it
ruined
why would anybody choose repair?
tbh
I doubt that sand will get in
if the gasket is done well enough
have u seen filling sand for glues
and won't get porous
that shit is finer than fine
or soapstone "dust"
which they probably have to make it dust resistant
What phone you gonna get instead Callum?
tho i can request a refund
still not an ideal solution imo
bad
to teaase Callum some more
baaaaad
not much you can argue about that
i mean just the display and one ui is worth it for me
one ui?
the new samsung ui
samsungs new UI
pretty decent
can do everything with a thumb
can it record calls? because nothing on stock android 10 can
most modern android UIs have that
but miui is terrible :p
in what way
take that back
ot was when i tried it 5 years ago
well
Small things like this just help my 2mm hands reach
not really up to date lol
im a bit salty about not having call recording at all on android 10 -_-
yes it is, if you install the wrong shit
well.. tough lcuk, according to Dutch law only one of the participants in the conversation has to approve
and that someone, can be yourself
I wanted to record a call once, to listen back to incase i missed something. can't
Call recording is a must.
you start to care once youve seen higher
also with the self employment power contract scams stuff... i want to record my calls
But then again i think i could live without, just kinda wanted it as i use my phone mostly for media
Yeah I had a 1440p phone, now have a 1080p,dont really care
1080p on a good display is fine.
People are fine using 1080p for a monitor but want a phone with mad resolution 
I think call recording would be nice to have
I can't remember shit from conversations an hour later, let alone a phone call
Drives my wife nuts, lol
last phone i had with 1080p with was my htc one m7 though :/
i loved that phone... one of the best phones ever made, except for the camera
Ye it was a great phone
purple tint
but it aged so fucking bad
true
i had the purple issue too
my camera stopped working after a year
just had purple lines and shit
ah, mine still worked, but it was very purple when it wasnt super sunny
Too bad, because it was a competent camera (just low res) and the Zoe stuff was a couple of years ahead of apple and google
20 pictures though
decent at the time :p
sec
my proudest photo was with the m7
camera was pretty damn good back then fite me
Selfie cameras
just low res 😉
You changed a lot
i had so many fun times with zoe http://mrpl.me/60482b_rfG3.mp4
Were it not for selfies we could have wall to wall displays
so for printing a picture it wasnt great
You mean i changed a lot?
I do quite like the recent addition of a back screen to some phones, so there's no cameras on the front
hmm try having your partner being on the other side of the world, you want to video call
Betweem thoss pictures
Eh, perhaps that's a use case I hadn't considered
Still, back to back displays fix that too
College was fun

That was our tutor
we just set our screens to that for when he walked in
but tbh even then the selfie cam was pretty bad
no laughing allowed
that pic is 6 years old
try again
this is callum now
absolute chonk
Photoshop? lies!
wtf
wtf
dark filter
is that one of those "beautifying" filters?
samsung/lg beatifier ? :p
fuck knows Darrell did it
which just blurs everything a ton
im to fat for a selfie atm
Let's see the glow up
rude
well, I ain't thin either
Darrel is! :p
What about not darrell
Thin
