I had a moto g power 2020, not sure if that was the g8

hollow zealot
#

That was the model before

#

There's 3 now lol

dry trellis
#

I use my phone simply for messaging and podcasts/music

hollow zealot
#

Moto g power
Moto G8 power
Moto G8 power 2021

dry trellis
#

I don’t need it big. I use my tablet for video and all else

warm wharf
#

there's a 2022 moto g power too

hollow zealot
#

Damn

warm wharf
#

but the 2021 and 2022 both seemed weird, they like, arguably had downgrades from previous versions

hollow zealot
#

The only thing I didn't like for mine was the hardware tbh

#

I could barely get Google maps to run

dry trellis
#

Motorola has been a bit piss poor quality though hasn’t it

warm wharf
#

I don't think their phones are bad, but they're definitely predominantly budget devices

hollow zealot
#

^

#

I bought mine at target

dry trellis
#

Used to work cell phone repair and motos were everyone’s least favorite mine included

warm wharf
#

I like motorola's software over most companies

#

very little bloat

hollow zealot
#

I mean you could wait for the nothing phone

#

That's android and it's not a massive tablet of a phone

dry trellis
#

The nothing phone is huge

#

Size of a pro max iPhone

hollow zealot
#

Hold on

warm wharf
#

It's 6.55", pretty big

dry trellis
#

Watched mr whosethebosses review

#

He switched a case between the two. The case fit

warm wharf
#

Pixel 6a is 6.1" and comes out next week

#

but 6.1" isn't tiny

hollow zealot
#

Yeah okay I guess Linus has big hands or something

warm wharf
#

but it's smaller

dry trellis
#

The s22 is smaller than the 6a

hollow zealot
#

My s22 is 6.1 and I'd consider it a large phone

warm wharf
#

2020: Snapdragon 665: 1358
2021: Snapdragon 662: 1397
2022: Helio G37: 956
Just a weird progression.

#

That's the 3 years of moto g power

#

The last number for each phone there is multi-core geekbench, 2022 is the slowest of the 3

peak sable
#

I got the pixel 6, it's pretty nice so far but I have notice cell reception can be meh like now

dry trellis
#

I actually really like the look of the zenfone 9

warm wharf
#

2021 was like, barely a SoC performance increase on 2020, and then 2022 tanked hard

hollow zealot
#

S22 with a pretty large case on

warm wharf
#

Turns out the Moto G8 Power is another name for the 2020 Moto G Power, so yeah, you and I had the same one

#

the 665

dry trellis
#

Motorolas naming was also a pain when working as a tech

warm wharf
#

I used a Moto Z Play from 2016-2020, then got a Moto G Power, then quickly switched to a Pixel 4a 5G, and then a Pixel 6 Pro not that long after

#

gave my mother my Moto G Power and 4a 5G

#

but she broke the G Power 😄

dry trellis
#

In frank I think every repair technician in the franchises hated Motorola

warm wharf
#

I could see them not being popular for people that care about durability

#

I never broke them, but my mother quickly did when I gave her it

#

and the Moto G Power didn't have gorilla glass

hollow zealot
#

I'm personally scared to own this phone
I drop phones a lot

#

Thus the large OtterBox

dry trellis
#

People criticize Apple for repair ability. But their phones are by far the easiest. They’ve just got the BS software locks

warm wharf
#

I've never broken a cellphone actually

#

I imagine I probably will eventually, some day

hollow zealot
#

I replaced the fingerprint sensor on my G8 power and that was horrendous

#

The only way the backing was stuck on was with glue of some form

dry trellis
#

All non budget phones

#

Some budgets too

warm wharf
#

I honestly preferred the fingerprint sensor on my old motorolas, and my pixel 4a 5G

dry trellis
#

But a lot of budgets will have near no waterproofing hence no adhesive

warm wharf
#

to the in-display one on my 6 pro

hollow zealot
#

I had some budget Samsung before that moto and that one was super easy to take apart

dry trellis
#

Hand me any phone and I’ll tear it apart in two minutes

hollow zealot
#

I don't mind the fingerprint sensor in the screen, but I mostly use face unlock thing

dry trellis
#

Samsung batteries are the absolute worst

warm wharf
#

I've seen lots of complaints about Samsung batteries swelling

dry trellis
#

Just a pile of adhesive underneath

hollow zealot
dry trellis
#

Forget swelling

#

Just removing them

#

Much pain

hollow zealot
#

It's 12:54
I started using it at 7:00 today

warm wharf
#

reviews said the battery on my phone was bad, but honestly, I don't think it's an issue

#

do you use accubattery or anything that measures battery life?

dry trellis
#

If you’re getting a new screen on a Samsung phone, you should probably replace the battery too. The health of that thing won’t be as good when it’s transfered

hollow zealot
#

Just the built in battery life stuff

warm wharf
#

Accubattery for me on my pixel says that my usual usage

#

is a little over 30 hours to go from 100->0

#

so it's not a two day phone by any means

dry trellis
#

Apple is one of the best in terms of battery replacements honestly. They at least try

warm wharf
#

but comfortably a one day phone

hollow zealot
#

I also use the thing that limits it to 85%, as recommended by someone here

dry trellis
#

Actually I think a Sony Xperia 1 II was the best I’d personally seen

#

In terms of replacing the battery

#

Removing. Transferring

hollow zealot
#

It's like 80°F outside rn and I'm scared to put my phone down anywhere near the sun

iron fiber
#

Eeelloooo

#

First time here wasup y’all

warm wharf
#

I wish it was 80 f here

hollow zealot
#

Howdy

dim aspen
#

I remember the old days when a feature of a premium phone was the ability to quickly replace the battery without glue

hollow zealot
warm wharf
#

90 F

dry trellis
#

I wish it was -80

hollow zealot
#

Yeah it's supposed to hit that next week here

#

It's not the hottest portion of the day yet here either

dry trellis
iron fiber
warm wharf
#

I've barely went outside today at least

dry trellis
#

Removable batteries have a lot of required built in plastic for protection

warm wharf
#

went to get the mail, and dragged a TV into the house that I had delivered today

hollow zealot
#

I wonder if my PC has raised my room temp like it did yesterday

warm wharf
#

New TV's are getting more and more annoying to setup, thing takes as long to setup and log into all the apps, etc. as a computer does now

#

😄

iron fiber
warm wharf
#

has about as many updates too

iron fiber
hollow zealot
#

It's running 4°C hotter than it was yesterday at the same idle

What TV isn't a smart TV?

iron fiber
hollow zealot

#

Why I need a smart tv when I just have a mini pc hooked up

hollow zealot
#

Trust me, it's not dirty

iron fiber
iron fiber
warm wharf
#

Though I was amazed by the TV's speakers. Like, legit better built-in speakers than some sound bars I have heard

dry trellis
#

Some monitors are getting pretty big maybe I’ll just get a monitor next go around

warm wharf
#

This could be a good monitor too tbh

iron fiber
warm wharf
#

48", 120 hz, VRR, G-Sync, ALLM, etc.

iron fiber
#

Hmm a 48 inch is good

warm wharf
#

It's a 48" LG C1

iron fiber
#

But for some reason a 165 hertz is less expensive than a 140 Hertz

dry trellis
#

I don’t need my tv to be a liability on my network, and have built in planned software obsolescence as it requires updates

iron fiber
warm wharf
#

Though this at 120 hz was certainly more expensive

#

than even 360 hz monitors probably

#

Since it's an OLED

iron fiber
#

I checked on the website itself I couldn’t believe it only diff is 140 hertz is 27 inch and 165 is 24

iron fiber
warm wharf
#

Maybe color accuracy differences?

iron fiber
#

But they don’t make that much of an impact do they?

warm wharf
#

Depends, not usually for gaming, but it does for like video editing

hollow zealot
#

Haha my phone's at 50°C rn

dry trellis
iron fiber

#

I’ve had issues with my iPhone, but not battery issues

#

I hate text selection. It’s horrid

warm wharf
#

My Android phone gets pretty hot. 😄

iron fiber

#

And I’ve had some weird apple podcasts and Bluetooth issues when I pause music

iron fiber
hollow zealot
#

S22 is my first flagship

dry trellis
#

I came from android to a 12 mini.

dry trellis
#

I use text selection a lot

iron fiber
#

Depends if it’s from the app itself

dry trellis
#

It’s horrid on iPhone

warm wharf
#

This is actually the first flagship phone I've purchased as well. Sort of anyway.

twin raptor
#

Loving my s10e personally

hollow zealot
#

I've really had no complaints about it, I knew when I bought it, it'd have bad battery life

iron fiber
warm wharf
#

I've had flagship iPhones, but I never bought them, they were provided by employers

iron fiber
#

Maybe try changing that and you should be fine

iron fiber
dry trellis
#

Apple podcasts is supposed to be apple’s app. And I’ve had this weird bug across pandora Spotify, and Apple podcasts

warm wharf
#

I just vastly prefer Android

iron fiber
#

Plus better battery life

dry trellis
#

Oh I also switched because Apple is better with privacy and no bloatware. But I may switch back

warm wharf
#

Eh

#

13 pro max has great battery life actually

hollow zealot
#

Does anyone recall if Linus said the lab had good AC

iron fiber

#

I think we're at a point where all new phones are good enough for whatever you use them for.

iron fiber
dry trellis
#

Saying android is “cheaper is kinda dumb. Apple only makes premium devices. Android manufactures do kinda make some bottom of the barrel shot

warm wharf
#

I think I'll use this phone for 3 more years, probably.

iron fiber
#

Which is why I wana get a pc

warm wharf
#

Well, Apple doesn't only make premium devices.

#

but yes, Android just encompasses the entire price range

iron fiber
#

But Idk my budget yet

warm wharf
#

iPhone SE though is far from a premium device

warm wharf
#

It technically DOES have a premium SoC

dry trellis
#

It’s got a fairly premium chipset. Can do most of what the other models can I believe

warm wharf
#

but it has much worse battery life, worse camera, and much worse form factor

dry trellis
#

Still a proven build quality as well

warm wharf
#

worse display too

iron fiber
#

I’m still learning 😭

warm wharf
#

System on a Chip

iron fiber
#

Oh

warm wharf
#

It's a CPU/GPU combined into one chip

iron fiber
#

Oooohh

dry trellis
#

If I could get a full phone premium phone the size of an se I might be happy

iron fiber
#

Interesting they combine 2 things into one

twin raptor
#

Like an APU

iron fiber
dry trellis
iron fiber
twin raptor
#

But also includes the chipset

iron fiber
#

Since it’s compact

iron fiber
dry trellis
#

I don’t need it super fast. Just not budget android slow

warm wharf
#

My phone is 88.8% display, the iPhone SE is 65.4% display

dry trellis
#

And I do like build quality

warm wharf
#

it's just got some atrocious bezels

#

That and it has a 2018 MaH battery

dry trellis
#

I’m really interested in the zenfone 9 the more I look

warm wharf
#

While my phone's 5003 MaH

dry trellis
#

But it may only receive like 2 years of software support

warm wharf
#

That's the problem with android unless it's Samsung, Fairphone, or Pixel

#

Usually not much longterm software support

dry trellis
#

Apple knocks that out of the park

#

I do love my iPad mini 6. And plan to use for years to come

warm wharf
#

I think Samsung and Pixel are "good enough" in that sense, but not perfect

#

Phone came with android 12, will get 13, 14, and 15

dry trellis
#

I wish good miniature android tablets existed too

warm wharf
#

Won't get 16, but by the time 16 times out, I think the phone will likely be time to be replaced either way

#

Basically, have a Pixel 6 Pro, and Pixel 10 will be the next phone

#

to get an OS version my 6 pro won't get, which seems reasonable

dry trellis
#

I’m honestly just weary of getting a device where google has even more control of it than standard

hollow zealot
#

Seems like the lan party will be in upwards of 85°F

#

I expect it'll be extra hot indoors with all those machines running too

I’ve just got a haf xb evo. Huge thing

Ok so let me tell you. The only reason I’ve ever built myself a PC now

white halo
dry trellis
#

I found this weird casing with computer parts in the dumpster of a neighboring destiny’s office while they were remodeling

I think it was part of an imaging/X-ray machine

how much improvement is jumping from an lga 775 pentium e5400 to a i3 10100

btw the i3 10100 with uhd graphics should be able to handle video playback

because the e5400 + gt 640 struggles

1080@60 playback

I had a pentium d 3ghz and a gt 640 for a while and worked fine for 1080p video

its fine for 1080@24

hope they release a laptop with rdna 2 igpu

but the thing is that it will be probably be too expensive

I can't even imagine dropping frames in 1080p playback

I bought a 220v Sony TV. Would it work on 110v?

hearty spear
#

unless it supports both? No

vivid jungle
#

I read online that I should check the power supply of the TV to make sure

fossil frost
#

it will say on the back of the tv somewhere near where the power cable goes into the tv

still sparrow
#

or in the manual

fossil frost
#

manual can have info for several related tvs, the tv its self will have the actual numbers

still sparrow
#

if it dont support . then you have to return it and get one that do .. or get a 110v to 220v step up/down converter for the Watt it uses

vivid jungle

The website says 110-240v for my model (KD-55X85J) but the back of the tv says 220-240v

# fluid ridge is it bad that my GPU isn't fully utilized

Sometimes it doesn’t need to be fully utilized. Though if your talking that there is a bottleneck that is hindering the GPU’s capability, it’s not a bad thing but you might want to upgrade whatever the bottleneck(s) are.

Check your power and GPU turbo settings on BIOS or nvidia manager to see if there’s a blocker on it. Also check if it’s thermal throttling or has Enough power.

I have a 6600xt that's 200mm in my tiny egpu case, which has two fans. There is also smaller versions with single fan, but they are more expensive.

so it follows that a 7600xt would be the same (assuming all other things are equal)

you still have 1500 things running after a reboot ? 😮

runic lagoon

yea

All random processes

agile jetty

Man just reinstall windows at that point

agile jetty

Select remove everything and select CLEAN THE DRIVE

#

Easiest way

ionic abyss
#

did malware bytes tell you what the malware was?

still sparrow
#

you can also reboot and spam F8 when it reboots and then do a recovery

ionic abyss

if so that makes it easier to remove

ancient sparrow

@ancient sparrow yea you fucked

if you can download stuff download a linux distro

ancient sparrow

My webcam light is also on

@ancient sparrow also. I would recommend to disconnect your pc from thr internet

ionic abyss
#

yes

agile jetty
#

@ancient sparrow turn off the Webcam NOW

ancient sparrow

I unplugged it

agile jetty
#

Why didn't you UNPLUG IT in thr FIRST PLACE

#

Mic and Webcam. If you get ransomwwre. Mic and webcam c

ancient sparrow
#

Ok

agile jetty
#

Run tron

#

Disconnect your PC from the internet

#

And do a windows reinstall with the 2 options
Remove EVERYTHING
Clean the drive.

ancient sparrow
#

I'm just going to hit the hard drive with a hammer and buy a new one.

agile jetty
#

That's if the first doesn't work

#

Bro still uses an HDD

ionic abyss
#

fish one thing once you get it back get a linux distro and have a bootable usb stick

still sparrow
#

dont think its ransomware because then he would not have been having access to the PC

ionic abyss
#

that way you have a recovery method to fall back on

agile jetty
ionic abyss
#

windows can be downloaded

ancient sparrow
#

bravo 6 going dark

agile jetty
ionic abyss
#

yes that also

#

and dont redownload the ransomware

agile jetty
#

Also I recommend having something like norton bootablr recovery on a usb

#

It will wipe any malware

ionic abyss
#

were you on windows 11 or 10 btw

agile jetty
#

Is there a difference when it comes to malware

ionic abyss
#

yes

agile jetty
#

And that is?

ionic abyss
#

windows 11 has a few extra security measures

agile jetty
#

Bitlocker.Bit locker..

#

TPM..

ionic abyss
#

well also for unknown files you can boot into sandbox also

agile jetty
#

Well he needs to change everything if he got ransomware

#

He said he's just gon hammer the hdd

#

Easiest way to get rid of Data.

#

Well there is an easier way

#

Snapping an ssd in half

ionic abyss
#

idealy id do a wipe and random write then zero to the hdd

agile jetty
#

And using a blowtorch to short the lines

ionic abyss
#

16 step random write then zeroing the drive is good enough

agile jetty
#

Rh

#

Just to be safe I'd reset the bios

ionic abyss
#

what i do that to all drives to make sure data cant be recovered before storing

agile jetty
#

If it's an HDD I just drop it

ionic abyss
#

no you cant resell it later than

#

then

agile jetty
#

Bro I never resell em

#

Plus the HDD I have a good reason to burn

#

It was where I stored the 2TB homework folded

Hello, I am on my phone.

@ancient sparrow smash the hdd

#

And then melt it with a blowtorch

ancient sparrow

I threw it in the pond outside my house.

that's what I did with my homework HDD

#

Did you at least drop it on the ground first

Some great ones (might be a bit of a Nani) are the Samsung AKG Type-C, provided you have a USB-c port for it. They’re in ear and wired but are pretty highly rated for audio quality

5 reformats later back on winders 10. Tried 11 but one install and the iso corrupts and won't reinstall windows 11 would just straight reboot when I tried to install Nvidia drivers. Then after that would refuse to recognize that I had an Nvidia card. So windows 10 mafia now

Not really

#

a PSD isn't an image as such - it CONTAINS images, but yeah

keen hazel
#

I would assume you are not re-saving the whole thing, no matter what type of file it is

#

given that medibang is a painting software it should be kinda basic stuff

I think Krita does the same thing as PSD too

#

incremental save is only implemented when people yell at them, OR they think it would be cool

#

The trick is to make them think it's cool and their idea, so you don't have to yell at them

keen hazel
#

honestly fair enough but it's kind of sad that I'm using a painting software and importing a different type of file because it's more compatible

#

so I am on the verge of yelling at them :)

manic torrent
#

oh look, all developers deserve to be yelled at

#

It is in their nature

keen hazel
#

I'm using PSD to save my art from now on

#

I hope there's no compatibility issues later down the line

#

but damn it is lightning fast

manic torrent
#

It may also be that it isn't compressing the PSD? I'm familiar enough for the formats to be sure.
