#

because the new update screwed up my metro theme

sand valley
#

It will

#

Cause they need to update all the themes

#

I have turned mine off and using the new steam theme till they update the other themes

grand dragon
#

Demon, download metro remastered unofficial patch

#

from their steam group

#

fixes it

silent violet
#

whats the group called

grand dragon
#

And just in case you still dont see the download

silent violet
#

grand dragon
#

Oh damn

noble ferry
#

i consider buying just a mid 2012 mbp and upgrading it

#

and replacing battery and stuff

#

mbp=macbook pro

#

that will only cost me like 600 euros

noble ferry
#

and will support mojave

#

500 euros

upper dove
#

Blimey

noble ferry
#

id need to replace the battery tho

#

since it only lasts 3 hours

#

that is a proper laptop

upper dove
#

That ainโ€™t half a bad computer and batteries are like ยฃ30 or ยฃ60

noble ferry
#

for sure

#

also can you run windows on an external hdd @upper dove

upper dove
#

Uhm not entirely sure, I think I might have done it once but it didnโ€™t exactly work very well

noble ferry
#

krav ill use macos for the main part

upper dove
#

O itโ€™s Krav I couldnโ€™t tell

noble ferry
#

do you need an external drive with 256gb ssd

#

does macos take up much space

#

xd

upper dove
#

Mac OS only takes like 20GB at most, I use a 128GB ssd on my macbook and even with things on it thereโ€™s 96GB free right now

noble ferry
#

no external drives?

upper dove
#

^^Nope

noble ferry
#

nah

upper dove
#

But everything from the Desktop and Documents goes into iCloud Drive tho so that might skew my results

noble ferry
#

do you get any free icloud storage?

upper dove
#

5GB

noble ferry
#

i might get a nas later on

upper dove
#

But I pay like 79p a month to get 50GB

#

Wat

#

No idea

noble ferry
#

79 pounds?

#

79p

#

xd

#

is that pounds?

upper dove
#

No 79 pence xD less than a pound xD

noble ferry
#

oooh

#

and is it useful to get an iphone when buying one or not xd

upper dove

#

clever cookie

upper dove
#

It's easy enough to disable SIP tho but who would want to do that other than to get the "Battery Time Remaining" indicator back on the battery menu xd

sand valley
#

HELP

#

My computer keeps crashing or the screen freezes when I change my graphic settings. This never happens because I run my graphic settings on the highest. This happens in single player and multiplayer.

#

This problem started when the settings reset it self.

#

I tried verifying files, redownloading, deleting mods, restart game, updating drivers, updating game

#

help please

#

I want to run my game on highest settinge

dusty timber
#

Check whenever your graphics card drivers are updated, also check the computer with other PSU

leaden swallow
#

@sand valley let us know how it goes

noble ferry
#

@leaden swallow yes

leaden swallow
#

Omg

#

Lol

Gimme gimme gimme

#

@marble forge

sand valley
#

@leaden swallow How do I do that? @noble ferry

leaden swallow
#

@sand valley do what?

sand valley
#

Fix my pc

#

Problem ^^^^

leaden swallow
#

Whatโ€™s the problem

sand valley
#

scroll up

wide temple
#

Then install the latest GPU drivers from NVIDIA/AMD's site, depending on what card you use

#

This way, you can be certain to reduce the chances of bad drivers being the cause

sand valley
#

ok thanks @wide temple

wide temple
#

let us know how it goes

sand valley
#

Kk

#

Do you use it?

wide temple
#

yes, I use it whenever I have driver issues, it removes all traces of the previously installed graphics driver allowing for a complete clean install

#

AMD even recommend it in their service manuals

sand valley
#

Ahhh ok

#

I have overheating problems too

leaden swallow
#

@sand valley you do?

#

Okay

sand valley
#

Yeah

#

@wide temple itโ€™s not downloading properly

leaden swallow
#

Do you know how to disassemble your PC?

#

...

wide temple
#

what do you mean it's not downloading properly?

leaden swallow
#

The drivers???

#

@wide temple Wot?

wide temple
#

scroll up and read what I said to him

leaden swallow
#

Oh

sand valley
#

no

#

@wide temple how do I isntall

wide temple
#

you open the file that you downloaded, it'll ask you to extract it to a folder, choose an appropriate folder such as the Desktop

#

then, open that folder, and inside it will be a file called DDU.exe, run that

sand valley
#

When I extract it says no archive

wide temple
#

follow this video

sand valley
#

Kk

grand dragon
#

oh wow I forgot I havent checked for a new recommended driver

#

I don't use geforce so I dont really get updated on new drivers often

leaden swallow
#

Dude I would just reinstall windows

grand dragon
#

For changing drivers? LUL

wide temple
#

that's like a last resort

#

I don't update my drivers that often either, I used to, but not anymore, cba

grand dragon
#

I'll check like once a month for recommended drivers in reddit

wide temple
#

neckbeard

leaden swallow
#

Lol

grand dragon
#

Well don't update to the new geforce drivers

#

fucking ruined my ets2 FPS

dire gull
#

I have no problems with the new drivers

#

LG 29UM69G-B i found this ultrawide 75hz monitor for 240usd. Is it good

wide temple
#

I wouldn't recommend an ultrawide without a resolution of at least 3440x1440

thin ivy
#

I have a 1050ti if that helps

sinful monolith
#

what do you want to use it for

thin ivy
#

Ganing mostly

wide temple
#

what kind of games

thin ivy
#

Ets2 gta gmod

#

Ect

#

Shooting games rpg racing games simulators

wide temple
#

gonna be honest, that GPU is going to be very underpowered for even the most basic ultrawide

#

2560x1080 will be hard on games like GTA in particular

#

unless you run on very low settings, but then it defeats the purpose of a high resolution display

grand dragon
#

Just get a 1060

noble ferry
#

No get a 1080ti

willow rain
#

wait for 1180

thin ivy
#

My 1050ti is one year old am not switching that fast

#

Dell SE2717H or i could get that one. 27inch 75hz

noble ferry
#

75hz

#

Low framerate

#

And why game on an ultrawide monitor

raven forge
#

Shit Android just took a U-turn into the path of iOS... Their Android Pie looks like they're trying to copy iOS

dusty timber
#

What in a World isn't a copy of iOS yet?

raven forge
#

Windows

#

Linux

#

Apple's best selling point is that they design their stuff to be simple enough for just about anyone to understand it. They also somewhere along the way made their products into something that gives social status to own. So a lot of people just get it because it's expensive, it looks nice, and everyone else has it ๐Ÿ˜›

#

Most of their products are quite well made too, most people never experience some of the bad issues, or lack of customer support that Apple has. Like refusing to admit obvious errors with their products.

#

No doubt Apple has done a lot of things right, and have been smart about what they do. However, it's a shit company, and they're sure as hell ain't consumer friendly, they don't seem to give a shit about their customers ๐Ÿ˜›

dusky apex
#

I've never had any issue with Apple or customer service. They gave me 3 iPhone at their own charge and everything with shipping paid and all.

raven forge
#

Yeah, I'm just referring to what they've done with extended warranties etc

#

They're obviously doing a lot of things right as well, otherwise they wouldn't be successful ๐Ÿ˜›

#

Also they have done shitty stuff. Like limiting performance of the iPhone 6S, to prevent battery faults. Instead of telling anyone about it, or taking devices back to repair them, they just did it silently, hoping no one would notice

#

I did however recently order the new MacBook Pro 13" wTB

leaden swallow
#

Hahahaha

#

Lol

dusky apex
#

I had 3 Macbook for work and one for personal ๐Ÿ˜›

#

I had to get them upgraded because I needed more juice ๐Ÿ˜›

noble ferry
#

Windows is also trying to copy macos lolol

raven forge
#

Yeah, Microsoft introduced the shitty Windows Store. Similar to the macOS' App Store. The problem is that Microsoft didn't do it properly, it doesn't work very well. It's just extremely frustrating to use.

#

And of course, to play games like Forza, you'll have to do that through that shitty store. When there occurs an error with your installation. You can't verify the game files, and repair the installation. You'll have to uninstall the whole game, and download it again (50GB-ish download), which is highly inconvenient. A couple of times, I even had to re-install Windows, because I couldn't bother doing more troubleshooting ๐Ÿ˜›

#

@dusky apex which MacBooks? I've been waiting for the 13" to actually get decent specs. Which it finally did, so I did order it. Hopefully arrives today :)

13" wTB, 512GB, Quad Core i7, 16GB RAM

#

I like the 13" form factor way better than the 15", even though the 15" comes with more available juice :/

noble ferry
#

I'm getting a 2012 mbp 13"

raven forge
#

I have a MacBook Pro 15" mid-2013 I think it is

#

Never use it, for anything but testing websites on macOS and iOS ๐Ÿ˜›

noble ferry
#

retina?

raven forge
#

Yeah

noble ferry
#

are you selling ๐Ÿ˜

raven forge
#

It's not even mine. I borrowed it form my last job, and they never asked for it back

#

I can't sell it ๐Ÿ˜›

noble ferry
#

ooh

#

aw

raven forge
#

I'm sure you can find one that isn't too expensive ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

#

Idk where you're located, but in Norway we have Finn.no

noble ferry
#

yeah i found one

#

2012

#

non retina i think

raven forge
#

Retina is post 2013 I believe

#

The one I have is slow though, it's not nearly powerful enough for my needs

#

Okay, nearly maybe ๐Ÿ˜›

noble ferry
#

im getting a slightly aftermarket upgraded one i think

#

with 8gb ram and probably an ssd

raven forge
#

Mine has SSD and 8GB RAM ๐Ÿ˜›

grizzled crow
#

hai

raven forge
#

But I don't think post 2013 comes with HDD

grizzled crow
#

my fellow tech people

raven forge
#

Hi ๐Ÿ™‚

dusky apex
#

Iโ€™ve used the 13 and 15. I prefer the 15 more

grizzled crow
#

13 and 15 what

cosmic pawn
#

Inch macs

#

Read the chat boi

grizzled crow
#

oh

#

i prefer big laptops

dusky apex
#

We all know you prefer big thing Krav

grizzled crow
#

17"

#

actually

raven forge
#

I have my laptop connected to external monitors anyway

#

So when I want to use it elsewhere, I'm likely on the go, and it's nice to have something smaller ๐Ÿ˜›

dusky apex
#

I have that too. I have a desk dedicated with 2 27โ€ screen if I need to plug my laptop outside of my desktop setup

raven forge
#

Yeah, it's very convenient ^^

#

I even upgraded mine to 4K monitors. I can fit a lot on one screen. It does get a bit tiny though.

noble ferry
#

id need to buy an external monitor for at home

raven forge
#

I have 3 xD One for gaming and 2 for productivity/work/programming

noble ferry
#

id get widescreen lol

raven forge
#

Yeah, although correct term would be ultrawide, for those who're picky ๐Ÿ˜‡ But yeah, some of them are nice, but none meets my requirements

#

I don't really play much games anymore either

wide temple
#

Ultrawide master race

#

you plebs with your dual screens kappa

raven forge
#

@wide temple find me something that can replace my dual 4K setup, and I'll consider it ๐Ÿ˜‰

wide temple
#

seeing as you're not gaming

#

something like this

spiral yew
#

where i work one of the design people has a 50 inch curved monitor

noble ferry
#

wowowo

raven forge
#

Not the resolution I'd want though, @wide temple

wide temple
#

you'd be hard pressed to find any monitor that has a higher resolution than that

raven forge
#

Ultrawide, yeah

#

Otherwise, no ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

obviously

raven forge
#

I have two of these

wide temple
sinful monolith
#

P2415Q is really good for its price

raven forge
#

But only 24"

#

It's also not too nice to look at imo

#

Too much edge around the actual display

sinful monolith
raven forge
#

I would ๐Ÿ˜›

#

But I'm picky as fuck

#

But I bet they're nice monitors regardless ^^

sinful monolith
#

it's very difficult to find 4k monitors under 27"

#

I think that was literally the only option available on amazon.de when I bought it

grand dragon
#

Thats not much bezel lol

#

You should see my "zowie" benq xl2411 144hz, it has quite a bezel

raven forge
#

Anyone here attempted to re-map the keys on macOS before?

#

Currently it's very inconvenient to type { and } ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

It's probably more hassle to remap the keys than to get used to it

raven forge
#

Hmmm maybe

#

Could always Boot Camp Windows on it ๐Ÿ˜‚

upper dove
wide temple
#

well, if you have the 2018 MBP, you'll still get throttling in Boot Camp

#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

raven forge
#

I do have that one

wide temple
#

they've only fixed it for Mojave and High Sierra

upper dove
#

I donโ€™t think SSD Macs support boot camp because APFS is broken and doesnโ€™t support it xD

raven forge
#

It's High Sierra though

wide temple
#

they do coco

upper dove
#

Wat

raven forge
#

It does support Boot Camp

#

But the throttling is because the temp, not because of the softwarer ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

I mean, if you run Boot Camp, you won't have the throttling fix working in Windows, it'll only work in macOS

upper dove
#

I didnโ€™t think APFS formatted Macs supported boot camp, I always got an error on my macbook saying itโ€™s not supported xd

wide temple
#

yes, true, but they did also forget "the signing keys"

raven forge
#

Only "fix" is to make the fans more active

#

I won't install Windows though

#

I don't usually that much demanding stuff

#

I'm just a web developer ๐Ÿ˜›

frozen meadow
#

why do u have such an ugly colour scheme of your pc tho

grizzled crow
#

thats the one at church

#

cos

Same. Got a decent gap between card and fans

grizzled crow
#

i couldn't afford a nicer looking cooler

#

noctua never make nice looking fans

ashen girder
#

Get gud

grizzled crow
#

buys like a 1070 and a 6600k and stuff

#

cant afford a nicer cooler kekk

#

fine

#

when i get paid

frozen meadow
#

gets a disc for drivers
no disc drive

grizzled crow
#

i'll get an AIO

#

and ikr

#

when i got mine i robbed the drivers from school

frozen meadow
#

who the hell came with up with that idea

#

like a disc but no disc drive

#

rly

grizzled crow
#

cos we have them brix at schools

#

so i robbed them

#

well the drivers

#

not the brix

#

cos thats illegal

#

i cant even remember the socket

frozen meadow
#

yesterday i ended up changing my pc case cos the one i had had a major dust problem (like the filters did nothing and yeah...) and the usb ports at front broke

grizzled crow
#

shall i get a single or a dual

frozen meadow
#

i had to take the plastic cover off my graphics card to clean the 3mm laye of dust

#

dual

grizzled crow
#

this is just to please my ocd

frozen meadow
#

either have the fan flat to the cpu with 1 fan or dual where the fans face each other outside a heatsink

grizzled crow
#

i dont want a tower cooler

#

im growing out ofthem

frozen meadow
#

lol

grizzled crow
#

but the cooler is the only thing that ruins it

#

looks why

#

wait

#

why not just get rid of the cooler and have no cooler

#

i can't complain then smart

frozen meadow
grizzled crow
#

ye

#

amd

#

im on intel you nub

frozen meadow
#

WAAAA

#

it's now ยฃ15

#

i got it for ยฃ6

#

smh

grizzled crow

i could do like

frozen meadow
grizzled crow
#

fulll water cooling

#

custom loops Kappa

frozen meadow
grizzled crow
#

ye

#

supply and demand

#

cos you brought one it shot up

frozen meadow
#

lol

#

it's pretty good for it's price

#

i was expecting a very cheap thing, but it's rly good

#

better than the AMD FX stock cooler BlobTriggered

grizzled crow
#

idk why im looking on amazon for pc parts

#

i'll offend the company i usually go to

frozen meadow
#

my AMD A10 cooler died and i used an AMD FX cooler, what a mistake that was i should have just got a new cpu fan

frozen meadow
#

watercooling?! ewwwwww

#

i'm like anti-watercooling

#

cos they always end up leaking and killing ur pc

#

unless you spend ยฃ1000 on it

grizzled crow
#

its AIO

#

its cheaty

frozen meadow
#

still can leak tho

#

smh

grizzled crow
#

well air coolers

#

can leak air

frozen meadow
#

doesnt kill the pc tho WeSmart

grizzled crow
#

but ur presence will kill it

#

i dont even get it

dire gull
#

all kind of watercooling can leak, but my CPU is watercooled as well. And if you do proper maintenance the change that it will like is minimal

grizzled crow
#

tbh aio are like the idiot proof to water cooling

frozen meadow
#

i have always been a, lets say fanboy troll

grizzled crow
#

you cant really go wrong

dire gull
#

i have build a lot of PC's and also with full watercooling, but the preformeces are not that big by using full watercooling. But it kan looks cool so that may be a reason

wide temple
#

you're only going to get real performance benefits with sustained workloads and an overclocked system

#

in the case of GPUs, having lower temperatures are preferred because they can boost higher in terms of clock speeds

spiral yew
#

my GPU very rarely goes above 165F or 73.8C

So who here have tried to do serious gaming on Linux?

#

I bought myself a GTX 980 to see if I can successfully play games on Linux, and run the games unavailable in a Windows VM

grizzled crow
#

ooo H440

#

man of wise choices

raven forge
#

Heh yeah, I like it ^^

#

I have a Phanteks Enthoo Primo as well

#

But it was a bit too big imo

noble ferry
#

waste

#

get sli

raven forge
#

Besides I managed to break the LED, and also it has blue LED instead

noble ferry
#

smhhh

raven forge
#

SLI is waste ๐Ÿ˜›

#

I'd rather get the 1080 Ti then

#

Well, I wouldn't now, obviously

#

I'm die hard on leaving Windows behind

wide temple
#

H440 is bleh

#

not the best case for cooling IMO

raven forge
#

I'm sure it's not ๐Ÿ˜›

#

I'm trying to do the best in terms of performance as well as design

#

I mean, it could be better, but my efforts have been minimal ๐Ÿ˜›

#

And yes, it could be more powerful, but I'm a little bit realistic at least xD I don't really play any games anymore, but I like having the equipment to be able to, so the 1070 Ti will work just fine

spiral yew
#

i'm more about airflow than design

raven forge
#

If I really needed the performance, I'd agree

spiral yew
#

better cooling makes everything run better

raven forge
#

Yeah, I know

#

But performance isn't an issue in my case ๐Ÿ˜›

spiral yew
#

right now my CPU fan is only at 737RPM

raven forge
#

I can't hear my PC anyway ๐Ÿ˜›

#

I can hear it when I put load on it though

grand dragon
#

F Windows bro

#

If my ryzen didnt segfault in linux I would use it

#

and if games were supported more ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

You can get your ryzen replaced by AMD if it segfaults

grand dragon
#

I know I can ๐Ÿ˜„ I ordered a ryzen I knew had segfaults when I bought my ryzen

#

they said their next batch comes in a month so i didnt want to wait

#

the next batch had it fixed obv

#

and i have a golden chip, i get like 3,95ghz with 1,40v which is something i dont want to lose ๐Ÿ˜„

raven forge
#

Idk why, I just kinda stick with Intel

#

Maybe I will consider AMD next time I buy something

#

For two reasons:

  1. Support AMD as a valid competitor to Intel
  2. Because they really upped their game with their new CPUs
grand dragon
#

Reminds me of this..

raven forge
#

Yeah... People tend to stick to their preferences, forgetting that facts might change

#

I've at least realized that Intel might not be the best option, and that it just lies with what I prefer ๐Ÿ˜›

frozen meadow
#

Erm, oops?

dire gull
#

Looks almost as new ๐Ÿ˜›

frozen meadow
#

Lols

#

Wish u could say same about screen bleed and cpu/gpu damage

dusty timber
#

Is it iPhone 11???

frozen meadow
#

Thing looks like a bad case of a jpg pic

#

Pixelation overboard

dire gull
#

it was a bit sarcastic ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

frozen meadow
#

Everything works on it, touchscreen, light sensor, face recognition,...

#

Just screen was damaged and cpu/gpu looks like itโ€™s being shorted out by the major screen bleed

#

Orange patches, orange patches everywhere

#

Curved screens bring dropped on corner = that

upper dove
#

๐Ÿ”ถ

frozen meadow
#

Oh and screen wasnโ€™t laminated so shards of glass everywhere

#

Including in my fingers...

dire gull
#

Good luck with that then

dusty timber
#

Unlaminated glass is a shame

frozen meadow
#

Makeshift Screen protector is over it with sellotape currently

#

Luckily if it dies i have an iPhone 3GS with me on holiday

upper dove

๐Ÿ“ฑ

#

Yay for iphone

dire gull
#

yeah

frozen meadow
#

Na that just bends in half

dire gull
#

No problems with it

#

i have iPhones for 8 years now

frozen meadow
#

So

iPhones bend in half
Samsungs explode
LGs shatter
etc...

#

:p

dire gull
#

Make lg phones?

frozen meadow

My phone is an LG

#

LG K8 (2017) โ€œTitaniumโ€

my last working is a iphone 8

frozen meadow

iPhone 4 had a logic board died

dire gull

and the 5s is backup, 6s is solid ๐Ÿ˜›

upper dove

Iโ€™m currently using an iPhone 7 ๐Ÿ˜

dire gull

Always beter than the awfull iphone x

frozen meadow
#

iPhone 5 had a dead battery and logic board shorted out (i used so B&M thing and...)
iPhone 5s had a dead battery, logic board shorted out, charging port fried and home button cable snapped

#

iPhone X i love, but i miss the home button

dire gull
#

What the hack are you doing with it;o

frozen meadow
#

And the notch is a but odd

dire gull
#

No that notch and home button

#

and also the price XD

frozen meadow
#

I donโ€™t have an X, i have handled and used one (demo iPhone X) but itโ€™s so fluid like and responsive

dire gull
#

in about 1 month the next Apple Event so we will see what comes

frozen meadow
#

iPhone 9 or 11, weโ€™ll find out after the break! (Itv in a nutshell)

dire gull
#

9 will never come i think

frozen meadow
#

Na

#

iPhone 11 or XS or XL or something stupid like that

upper dove
#

Only Apple could do that

dire gull
#

yeah something like that can be

#

They said also it can be a iphone XL like whut

frozen meadow
#

I said that just above xd

dire gull
#

uhu

#

i'm blind i think

frozen meadow
#

Lol

#

Well before/after one day

#

Itโ€™s just slowly cracking more and more

dire gull
#

ehaha

#

I have never had a broken screen, I'm wondering how people deal with there Phones

upper dove
#

Glass screen protector GWfroggyWeSmart

frozen meadow
#

This is first time in my life i have broken a phone

dire gull
#

YEa i have to hecoco

frozen meadow
#

I canโ€™t get a glass screen protector

#

But worst part is it didnโ€™t land on the screen, landed on the corner but shattered across the screen

#

Like just my luck...

dire gull
#

That is annoying yea

frozen meadow
#

Like curved edge screens end up like that

dire gull
#

i have dropped my phone i think 3 times, but with a case and glass protector nothing happen ๐Ÿ˜„

frozen meadow
#

My phone doesnโ€™t have glass protector and if it did it wouldnโ€™t make a difference

#

I canโ€™t buy one for it either

#

I can buy plastic cheap things but not a glass one

dire gull
#

they are not that fine

#

had in de past but i take it off in a few weeks because the corners let go

wide temple
#

Hahaha

#

What a blatant copy

spiral yew
#

@frozen meadow there are companies that make cases for phones with curved screens

night summit
#

Iโ€™ll stick with my iPhone 8 ๐Ÿ‘Œ

thin ivy
#

Mi8 is a good copy of the Iphone x tho

#

My cousin bought it from Beijing, China for very cheap and its gr8

vivid nova
#

I stick with OnePlus

#

Great value for money

raven forge
#

Agreed. OnePlus has a good policy on the rooting, they have a nice version of Android, and they provide good hardware for a decent price.

wide temple
#

rooting in 2018

raven forge
#

What are you trying to say?

wide temple
#

opening up your device to vulnerabilities doesn't seem like a smart idea in 2018

#

maybe vulnerabilities isn't the right word, but root all access is never a wise idea

raven forge
#

Well, you would obviously be careful what you give root access

#

But if I'd be that worried, I'd be better off unplugging my devices from the internet ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

that's not really what I'm getting at though

raven forge
#

Then help me understand haha

wide temple
#

say a 0-day vulnerability is found in an application and that application is trusted, e.g. PayPal

#

your device has full root access

#

what happens?

raven forge
#

Nothing, unless you give PayPal root access

#

Every app asks for root access before it's granted. You will have to actively give an app root access before it can access everything

wide temple
#

right, but the vulnerability allows itself to gain root access

#

then what?

raven forge
#

Then there is a serious security flaw in the root ๐Ÿ˜›

#

I don't remember which root I have, but let's say it's Chainfire

wide temple
#

exactly, and unless the manufacturer created the root themselves (even those are risky), you're at risk regardless

raven forge
#

That would be on their hands, and I seriously doubt it's easy to get around the prompt asking for root access

wide temple
#

especially with how you can run APKs from the browser

#

I just don't think it's worth compromising the security of your device for what I'd consider... cosmetic changes

raven forge
#

This seems like some serious paranoia to me ๐Ÿ˜› I'm not that worried about getting hacked haha

wide temple
#

It's not really paranoia, it's just about protecting yourself

raven forge
#

Yeah, I get that

#

I just ain't that worried

wide temple
#

when you consider that most Androids are still running on very old versions

raven forge
#

I root my device to gain useful features

#

I'm so used to it now that I can't even think of what I needed it for xD

#

But deleting apps that are installed by the manufacturer amongst other things

#

OnePlus isn't the worst at that, but still

wide temple
#

that's about the only thing I'd want to use root for

#

deleting manufacturer apps

raven forge
#

Well, then you can root it, delete the apps, unroot it ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

shame that Google doesn't provide a way to do it

raven forge
#

Even Apple has made a way to at least hide apps xD

wide temple
#

my Mum's S7 is full of garbage that she never uses

raven forge
#

That says a lot tbh

wide temple
#

mhm

raven forge
#

Yeah, Samsung is about the worst one out there

#

You can't even delete Facebook or Instagram

#

It's fucking crazy

wide temple
#

that's why I prefer iOS, consistent updates and better quality apps (imo)

raven forge
#

I agree

wide temple
#

problem with Android is devs have to target for several versions which might not have all the APIs they want to use

raven forge
#

However I absolutely hate the notification center, and the home screen

wide temple
#

home screen doesn't really bother me, the notification centre does though

#

that should change with iOS 12

raven forge
#

Well, you need to organize everything in folders, or you end up having 32021 pages of apps ๐Ÿ˜›

#

I have an iPhone 5S running iOS 12 beta

wide temple
#

eh, I only have 4 pages of apps

raven forge
#

Yeah, still too much

#

I have 1

wide temple
#

I don't use folders at all

raven forge
#

I use the app drawer ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

home screen has all my frequent apps, following screens have apps in alphabetical order

raven forge
#

And have the most frequent ones on the home screen

#

I guess that's a decent way to do it

#

This is my homescreen

#

I should charge my phone haha

wide temple
#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

#

before you ask, no, that bottom row isn't empty because of the wallpaper, I've always had it that way for the first screen

raven forge
#

I wasn't going to ask xD

#

But yeah, I could utilize more space myself

#

But there aren't that many apps I use frequently

#

Could even remove a couple of those there

#

But I want to fill a row, otherwise I'd go nuts

wide temple
#

likewise

raven forge
#

This is the part of Android I like the most, in comparison to iOS

#

Yes, I did replace those navigation buttons with swipe-gestures ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

control center?

raven forge
#

Yeah

wide temple
#

you get that on iOS too?

raven forge
#

Well, you got the one you pull up from the bottom

wide temple
raven forge
#

But this is the notification center along with a control center

wide temple
#

well, top now on the iPhone X

raven forge
#

Ahh

#

True ๐Ÿ˜›

#

Then there is the design related stuff

#

Android is a lot more customizable than iOS

#

To me that is a big deal ๐Ÿ˜›

#

At least considering I like dark mode more

#

In fact, I rooted my phone to use Substratum, so I could install themes that makes things completely black

wide temple
#

If you asked me a few years ago if I wanted customisation I would have said yes

raven forge
#

Considering the frequent use of OLED displays, this should save a little bit of power as well

wide temple
#

but as I've grown older I just don't seem to care as much

#

I used to be really into jailbreaking back in the day

raven forge
#

I care too much ๐Ÿ˜› Sadly

wide temple
raven forge
#

If I were to get an iPhone, I'd jailbreak it for sure

wide temple
#

it would be nice to have something like that but the upkeep and lack of stability is just... meh

raven forge
#

Yeah ๐Ÿ˜›

#

That's kinda the problem with Android, why most people don't like it. Because it just is too much for most people. Most people don't care to customize or look at the possibilities to customize, they just want something that works out of the box ๐Ÿ˜›

#

And buying a Samsung lands you with a complete mess, and I get why people are frustrated over that, compared to iOS ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

It's strange because I'm quite a techie person

#

maybe it's an age related thing

raven forge
#

Doubt it is, probably a matter of interest and what matters ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

I do hope they make some changes to the widgets page and home screen in the future

#

I know it was planned for iOS 12 but they canned it for iOS 13 to focus on performance

raven forge
#

I hope they add dark mode to iOS as well in the near future

#

I don't know how old you are, but I'm 22, and only seem to care more and more about the esthetics xD

wide temple
#

23

#

yeah dark mode would be really nice

#

part of me is hoping it's announced as an additional feature next month with the new iPhones

raven forge
#

So 95? ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

but that's a pipedream seeing as we haven't seen any references to it in any of the betas so far

#

ye

raven forge
#

Same as me then

#

Yeah, I was having the same thoughts

#

It would make sense to announce a dark mode

#

But if anything, it will probably come next year

#

It would be a big thing, so we'd likely get a hint of it in the beta

wide temple
#

no doubt, would be perfect with the OLED displays of the X and whatever's coming in the future

raven forge
#

Yeah

#

It's a shame about the prices though

#

They're hilarious

#

Same goes for Samsung

wide temple
#

aye, all smartphones prices are pretty obscene

raven forge
#

Honestly, Samsung's prices are crazier, considering they're way less unique ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

true, it's not like their phones are made out of stainless steel and glass

raven forge
#

Problem with prices is us, we keep buying it no matter the cost

#

iPhones I get, because there is no option if you want iOS

#

But buying the Samsung's. I honestly don't get why anyone would do that ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

they get cheaper as time goes on too

#

where as iPhones retain their value very heavily

raven forge
#

Yeah

#

Also it's easy to sell them on the used market

#

A lot easier than Android devices

#

I had an iPhone 7, I put it on Finn (Norway's online used market) ๐Ÿ˜› It took 2 hours, and it was picked up xD

wide temple
#

wow

#

2 hours, did you sell it for a lot?

raven forge
#

It was a good price ๐Ÿ˜› 5.5k NOK

#

570EUR

#

It was a year ago

wide temple
#

that's pretty decent

#

16GB?

raven forge
#

128GB I think

#

Don't remember ๐Ÿ˜›

#

Yeah, 128GB

#

With 2x lightning dock and 2x lightning cables

wide temple
#

ah, I was gonna say you sold it for a really good price but with all that, that person got a really good deal instead

#

:p

raven forge
#

Yeah

#

I looked at others selling it

#

And put mine out for a bit more than the cheapest ones in good condition

#

Mine was in perfect condition ๐Ÿ˜›

#

Had it for a couple of months without as much as a scratch

#

No idea how I do it, but I never use any kind of protection ๐Ÿ˜›

wide temple
#

not sure if that's the smartest idea ๐Ÿ˜

raven forge
#

Sure ain't ๐Ÿ˜› But I hate the extra size it adds to my devices to use protection. It just doesn't feel the same with. Generally a much better and enjoyable experience without ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

#

Okay, I overdid it a little bit ๐Ÿ˜‚

I'll rather look at what they announced, after they announced it xD

It's started now

I'm on my way home from work now :P

I just watched to kill some time anyway

That's life when you lose your driver's license xD Need to time your plans with the bus

wide temple
#

raven forge
#

I might take my car for a spin soon

#

I miss driving so badly xD

#

Talking about cars in tech channel; let me get on topic xD I want to replace the climate control and head unit with a touch screen, similar to the system that Tesla has. In my Audi A4 2007

wide temple
#

get a CarPlay/Android Auto unit

raven forge
#

I also want to make it so I don't have to put my key in the ignition slot, I guess that would be keyless. The question is; how do I beat the steering wheel lock :P

#

I already have that lol

#

It's cheap and slow

wide temple
#

oh lol

#

you'll probably be able to retrofit keyless using official Audi parts

#

assuming they had it as an option for that year's model

#

oooh here it is

#

the phone number is a huge hint

raven forge
#

They have it partly, in the RS4 B7

#

Which is the same as mine, just RS4 ๐Ÿ˜›

#

But it still has to have the key in the ignition, but there is a button

#

However, the most important part is already covered in OEM parts. The question about removing the steering wheel lock remains, and also how to nicely cover the ignition slot ๐Ÿ˜›

#

This is on the border of belonging to #car-talk ๐Ÿ˜›

#

It sure is an interesting project though haha

#

I'll be sure to keep this community updated when/if I actually make progress on it

#

For the center console / media controlling etc, I'll probably just hook some Arduinos up in there or something. Shouldn't be too hard with the integration part actually, the hardest part is to get the hardware and fitting it into the center console, trying to make it look as OEM-ish as possible

#

Would probably use something a bit stronger than an Arduino (or even Raspberry Pi for that matter) for the headunit part though

willow rain

newegg shown partner cards are showing similar $1299 prices
so where is the $999 priced cards? no where right now its all $1299
the prices they showed on stage do not reflect what hit the online stores at the time of the announcement
when the 2080ti comes down to $999, which i doubt it will considering the way markets have been showing high prices massive profits as of late, even $999 costly yet understandable
