Just off the top of my head: Studio, Genymotion, Virtualbox with Bliss or Android x86 install, and I do believe Anbox is Linux.
ill just try to make a vm with andorid x86
Hopefully
thats uk
or something
i bet everyone would buy an eu iphone
just for the type c
let us pray for the type c iphone
Wow finally
It's just a proposal and it will take time before coming into effect
also devices with no ports will be exempt from such law (if passed)
bet ur ass that apple will make the next iphone portless
just so they can keep their walled garden
Oh defo
Hell, didn't either Apple or Xiaomi just demo a portless phone concept, earlier in the year?
Xiaomi iirc or some CN brand anyway
xiaomi
but I'll tell you this
wireless is shit
for anything but data transfer
and even there it's inefficient
True
Well, that's really just physics. Yer spending more energy to beam energy to a device.
exactly
each conversion has losses
first from AC to DC
then from DC to radio
or well magnetic
then from that back to DC
It's even funnier when companies act like they're doing the environment a favor with this shit.
I mean shareholders started calling them out on this bullshit
at a shareholder meeting they did get criticized hard for the whole let's not include accessories crap
let me rephrase, essential accessories
I think the idea of not having a charger would be fine IF they used a standard charger
Also iirc EU is working on proposing the standardisation of power delivery for all chargers
type C is a connector
both sides of the device?
OH thats what you mean by PD
the pd brick
the brick has to support pd to work with the eu type c standard?
oh
cool stuff
get shit on, apple
yea...
no thx
And wireless charging is so inefficient, wastes energy and producing heat
I dont understand the weird wireless charging fad in tech-media circles
we talked about this below
Yeah i read, i wanted to chime in too,
New innovations
That's all about it
Looks new
So everybody wants it
Until it gets standardized by popularity (or by a big industrial pillar) and becomes a requirement.
Personally I can't wait for wireless charging to take kinetic energy from human hands (bypassing a need for acidic batteries).
Hmm
Fallout universe portable nuclear battery when
True, I hope corded charging will always be a thing
all in all transmitting power wirelessly is highly inefficient
be it with magnetic fields, infrared, microwaves, etc
also
kinetic energy
mate this ain't your typical wrist watch to need just some light winding to function
Imagine heatstroking bcs of the heat in the air due to wireless charging
or maybe air charging

Hmm
anyone know anything about monitor panels
idk if i should go for a VA or an IPS
i have an ips already but in some games its so fucking dark i legit cant see shit even if its 1cm infront of me
i heard a VA are better for this but i dunno how much image quality they sacrifice
unless you are looking for low cost and low response times
Humu humu
I want oled
because of editing
also screen color is mindblowing
so I noticed
USB C has changed
this one came with the phone (Poco F3/Redmi K40)
cannot transfer data and shit, only can fast charge the phone
this one I buy from Baseus, it have full pins.
can transfer files and stuff but can't fast charge
Huh
I wonder what mines is
Let me go home and check
Since I think that cable can fast charge and data transfer
how good is the poco F3?
my samsung one doesnt have all the pins but can fast charge and data transfer
has like 5 on the top and 7 on the bottom or something
yes poco is part of bbk
so my charger possibly can't data transfer
buyt can 65w charge
Hardware is good but software sucks too much bugs that make my eyes hurts
Notification and Darkmode
also sometimes boot up take 5 minutes
idk why
normally it is just 13 sec
more or less
BBK have Oppo,realme,vivo,Iqoo,Oneplus
meanwhile Poco is owned by Xiaomi
I'd install a custom rom tbh
oxygenOS is fine for me
I'm fine with whatever samsung gives
What is going on with the oneplus pricing?
The OnePlus 8 is $699 CAD rn
But the 8t is $629 CAD
$470 off of its original price
God I could get that phone using 300 bucks if I would trade in my current 8t
How is the original 8 worth more than the 8t???
Ugh I hate how they do their pricing
what is the most durable laptop brand? it's about using at high performance in long run and not rugged ones, no no
also i'm using it for sketchup and i searched for high and low seas and there's about the problems about pricing of the quadro 5000... also the rarity of that graphic card
Durable?
Idk man
Maybe Asus or gigabyte
High performance I would go for Asus since it's nice to use possibly
@subtle hawk tried to open call of duty phone goes untesponding goes lag here and there
I tried to restart the phone
then Kaboom
all apk gone
Bruh
commit custom rom
APK as in apps?
MIUI is shit
Use something else
My oxygen os is buggy fuck but I'm not custom romming yet
they never developt it for cheap device
Bruh
or flagship killer thingy they said
What device
poco F3
if you can find a Google Pixel, I recommend that over other Android phones
second best is a Samsung
Pixel is stock android
I remember the day having android one phones
only live for 2 years tho
I mean the software update
anybody know how to custom rom?
I laready download TWRp and the rom just doesn't know how to do the shit
unlock the bootloader
idk how
but you need to unlock bootloader
if the rom can't do shit
get another rom, imo
where did you get your ROM from?
my s21 has its bootloader locked
sadge
unless I pay $150 for someone to remotely unlock it
Huh
My phone's unlocked
I think OnePlus will keep it's OnePlus series 10 phones unlocked
Because they're implementing oxygenOS 2.0
I only ever use the selfie camera for face unlock
What's a good mobile laptop that's thin and has a long battery life
I don't care much about the gpu, just something that's good for productivity when on the move
budget range would be useful to know
also what type of productivity? programming? modeling? word processing?
Idk
Maybe lenovo
Programming no visuals I think
I'm dumb
Possibly Lenovo for the thin
Or Asus
macbook air hands down, best perf/$ u can get thats a thin and light and isnt made of plastic
m1 version right?
yeah macbooks are decent machines because they are tightly coupled, but you pay for that with $$$
windows ultrabooks are also nice, or maybe you can get one without an OS and slap linux on it
Apple's lowest-cost notebook starting at $999 with a Retina display and Touch ID and powered by the new Apple M1 chip. Launched in November 2020.
it happens, i've only looked at macbooks recently because my work wants all devs to use them lol
pretty sure it goes on sale now on amazon or bestbuy for like 899 or cheaper
since new ones are coming
macrumors has this section:
Although there have been clear signs that an updated MacBook Air with a number of upgrades and improvements is on the way, rumors suggest that the model will not arrive until late 2021 at the very earliest, and it is more likely to arrive in 2022.
Since updated MacBook Air models are believed to be half a year away at minimum, it is currently a good time to buy a MacBook Air and for most people, there is no immediate cause to wait until new models arrive.
i think next updates are due oct/nov, may not include MBA though
is resizable bar really important?
meh im not too keen on apple and its improvements to newer models
Masters in Business Administration Management 1
There's also the Framework laptop
A laptop that's both thin and easy to repair
I got one during batch 2. I5 model.
But your budget may not fit if you don't want the base model, so I'd probably shop around for a used thin laptop
tbh if I wanted something easy to fix, I'd get a desktop lmao
Unless they can match the warranty and customer support of the big brands, they can never appeal to the mainstream
The concept is right-to-repair
so if shit breaks, it's easy to replace the part
just like a desktop
I mean the swappable component part, not the right to repair push this thing is tryna make
Ye, talk to me when your cpu or gpu acts up and you still have to replace the whole darn motherboard anyway
Cuz everything is integrated, cuz at the end of the day, it's still a laptop
That motherboard's designed to be removable, as well. And you'd logically plunk down far less on a board than on an entire new laptop.
You do realize that, you can replace the motherboard for most laptops
as much as I like the idea, I'd just get a desktop at this point ngl
Talking about replacing motherboards
I have to reseat the ssd on a p53s
The fking thing refuses to detect the hard drive lmao
Nvme
ah
One day, I'll buy a motherboard with two NVMe slots
so i can put it in RAID 0
imagine the performance 
I hate taking the slim workstations apart ngl
Troublesome af
Since the bottom part is 1 molded piece
We could always bring back the early 2000's chonker laptops.
I wish more companies adopted the idea of thin clients for office stuff
P1, P52
centralized computing in the office
if someone gets malware in their VM, it'll just take 5 mins to fix
I mean
If you are giving your regular users administrative access in the first place
You're already doing smth wrong
Granted attacks still can happen
especially social engineering
I don't know why but a lot of people still plug in USB drives they find in the parking lot
We spend a major chunk of time just resetting passwords lmao

But nowadays, most of our users are not that dumb anymore
Inb4 crypto wallet
If someone plugs in a random USB without so much as a check, they deserve what happens to them.
it's why a spare laptop is always a good investment
Truth. Also having a spare helps if yer main goes down for any reason.
Just quarantine it duhhh
@quartz atlas I personally prefer the framework than some bitchy macbook or XPS
if smth breaks I can order that specific part and replace it
not the whole damn mainboard
which I would need to find from somewhere
and not need some snowflake pairing tool to make it work again
That's the thing tho. Their target is people like you, the tech enthusiasts. People who love to get hands on and fix their own things. Most people would never have the confidence to take apart a laptop.
who says that you yourself have to take it apart
You gonna buy a framework and bring it to a technician 
This issue here is, most of the components are still soldered to the motherboard.
yeah but they're off the shelf components
that a repair shop can buy and swap
not how for example apple makes custom chips that only they can buy
which you would need to salvage off other dead units that have a different defect
I'd argue that a proper repair shop should be able to order most components for windows laptops. Apple is just a different beast.
XPS ain't repairable anymore?
not easily
Woahs
so they're turning laptops into phones 
it's a trade-off, for the common user, it might be worth it.
for us tech power users, nah
also lmao at having to buy a new entire computer for more hard drive space
yeah pretty much, along with the power cable
you also want to screw it in so it doesn't bounce around, laptops are completely different though
yeah usually it's an integrated connector so no cables, you just slide it in
I don't have new ones
Yes
windows 11 is out
Lmao. Friend at Facebook confirmed they ended up bringing in a guy with an angle grinder to get access to the server cage

8306
genius
that's what you get when you have a centralized root of trust
Today at 1651 UTC, we opened an internal incident entitled "Facebook DNS lookup returning SERVFAIL" because we were worried that something was wrong with our DNS resolver 1.1.1.1. But as we were about to post on our public status page we realized something else more serious was going on.
wait what
windows 11 is out?
i don't have the update yet
what is admin ovveride? FOG_Yamato
Maybe, join the insider program
But I do warn to expect green screen errors
due to old drivers and such
since the update doesn't contain specified drivers for the computer or something
Wooooo
yeah no need to rush to w11
facebook doors and locks used facebook.com basically
so when facebook.com when out because someone made a typo, they needed to break into their own data center to fix it, since everything was down
tl;dr have a plan B and test it
the cloudflare write ups are pretty decent too for people who don't know the terms BGP/ASN and so on
I'm sure installing Windows 11 this way isn't gonna work 
My laptop can run Windows 11 bare metal tho
imagine not having a system that meets requirements and shoehorn W11 on it
I'm thinking about installing it bare metal next year for that sweet Hyper-V 
well is it true?
idk if my laptop support that tho
R5 3500U Asus M409 DA EK502T
What I scared of is my disk space right now

yes
you can boot without uefi
or tpm
i have win 11 without tpm, and nothing is wrong
Yea
Shouldn't do that to your business laptop
Do to personal laptop
But your boss will pay for a deaded business laptop

I mean the class of the laptop is business
I see
My laptop is the ROG zephyrus 14 Ryzen 5 4600hs mid 2020
The errors i get is greenscreen
thats it

Thanks Win 11
Also using beta builds of win 11
When it says more stable than normal builds
imagine running win11 without TPM
chrinj
just sit ur ass on windows 10
the only device I have on 11 is my surface pro which updated overnight
Imagine running Windows 11. Right as it rolls out
I don't like tube amps. But Boi, this looks dope.
Since idc I will windows 11

they're pog
but this is more pog

That's cool
@hexed citrus what is this
oscilloscope
Is it heart stuff
it shows you voltages in a graphical format
the heart stuff is called an "electrocardiogram" and i think it's similar
ye it's pretty much the same thing for the heart
That's sounds sad
@versed blade


gen 1 tech stuff is full of issues
the wisdom was wait for the 1st windows service pack before upgrading
it's probably better to wait until march or june when they release the 1st feature pack for w11.
I see
shet
Sounds bad
Hmm
Is it easy to update the game's Source engine 1 to Source Engine 2? Garry could've upgraded his original mod for miles since the release of SE2... Or valve being sour about their engine being used...
happened 3 years ago if you didn't know
Yea
Running Windows 11
Can't even stop my music
Some of the keys on my kb just don't work
Bruh
I just got my old laptop to win 11
i5 8th gen with mx 150
12gb ram 256gb ssd
Yes, I memorize every spec
All i get is green screen errors
Its worse for me
I'm talking stable windows 11 here
It's a land of windows 10
Stable is out?
Huh
What build
If it's beta then it's beta
At school
Eh
Sure


Yes
Bruh

Run Windows 11 Dev Channel for fun

seriously don't do that unless you like instability
Bruh
Huh, looks like same build though
If I recall, there are more numbers for me
But I'm an insider
So I guess stable is out

nonono
this is the insider number
but somehow i got it
oh wait no
this version is the official stable
i see
i fouynd something dumb
iut might just be my pc
but if i play minecraft, i can't use the pc
the entire display is frozen
music work
kek
Shiny gpu is a coom

Is this good?
should be good enough for watching in HD, browsing, and MS Office
gaming, maybe medium-low
Once you buy it, download a fresh copy of Windows 11 on USB
so it doesn't have bloat
It's for an engineering student
Idk
My wife's lil brother told me it's the recommended spec by the lecturer.
Just want to make sure he's aint lying
oh
I suggest upping the ram to 16 if they're going to do a lot of stuff
also, they should reformat it with a clean copy of Windows 11 so it doesn't have bloat
it should automatically activate
Vega 8 gpu huh
Isnt it the intergrated gpu
I would personally as a CAD student would use a discrete gpu
@subtle hawk recommend me a good external soundcard
that uses usb
since i got that hx1000 i can't get rid of the god damn audio noise.
i use an ifi amp thing
I use sennheiser hd599's 
its just usb
yes
and
i used my internal mobos sound
except
it seems to be fucked

I just need something with a bit of power (so my headphones at least can make some noise)

@subtle hawk fuck it i just bought a regular one
https://www.amazon.nl/dp/B073KTPNDR?psc=1&smid=A17D2BRD4YMT0X&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp
should be good enough
i got this thing
and its loud enough
I believe that 
same
mine is currently connected to my monitor 
cuz i hear crackling on my mobo audio port when i play audio
time to repair some power bois
yes I do
fix my audio

pay me

exactly
borrowed the load tester from my friend to see where it trips
just use your finger 
it's a seasonic
@subtle hawk gonna use my bluetooth headphone for now. sad part is that its like 3 times louder
how
oh they're pretty good. focus? focus gx?
ye I hooked up the PSU chip to the oscilloscope to check
i really would never get bluetooth
with the problems my friend has
with like
sound quality and like mic
at least never as a headset
cos theres like 2 different bands it uses for high quality sound, and lower quality sound and mic
oh just a regular headphone for music xd its temporary i dont like bluetooth either
ok good 
heatsink though? 
hopefully it doesnt go the way of the note 7
ummm
i don't understand
why so fast? do they have 4 batteries in that thing?
even if so, there isn't a point
65 watts for mt 4500mah is too much
@subtle hawk imagine this
15600mAh
but 18W
Oh no
The slowness
I can feel it
Charging all night
5hrs to full charge
And waking up realizing it isn't plugged
If no thermal issue?
no explanation
i mean
WHY ONLY 18W

meanwhile my phone has only a 4100 mAh battery
these time estimates don't include "fast charging" do they?
feels like an iphone ad for chargers lol
It should be
@subtle hawk btw check if ur gpu is daisychained 
120w? the fuck that
s
gonna be
a toasty battery
it is
some certain gadget reviewer already done that
but it has power option tho
@gloomy tinsel also lmao
Vision stone huh
wth does daisychained mean
1 cable that splits into 2
the power cable or the uh other cable that goes to motherboard
i dont think it is though
hmmm i mean they are pros so im guessing its one of the first 3
cursed
only the car cabin left
they use Honda Beat engine
imagine if the bike's engine can speak
when will windows 11 microsoft edge look better
looks all square-like
its not synced so well to the windows 11 theme
ahh yep I've heard this too
15.6K batt
only 18W
fucking really?
so how many of you actually upgraded to Win 11?
unless ofc, it's from someone reputable
like Nokia and Samsung
Me
I cann tell u
It's buggy
It midnight
I'll tell u tmrw
Imagine
A system
Optimised for modern cpus
Making old cpus slower

What an unexpected development
Yea
also modern titles:
-keep up with us
-better graphics
-shit optimization (a lot of modern games)
ik what ya mean
Well it can be controller right
you didn't always gonna enable that shit
like we can choose it like 33W or sum
i mean, it's not healthy for yer phone lol
if ya force it to 120W on daily basis
the heat, duh

the second hand price?
it's still worth this much
the new was like 1.9M IDR in tokped
no thats new
it doesn't worth at all tbh
indeed
it heats like Oven
more like volcano

you go 2 minute into Azur lane
CPU goes 74ยฐC in CPU Z
thats snap 625
meanwhile newer tech like Snap 870 in CPU Z it goes 50ยฐC but phone surface is on 38 ish
(this is while playing genshin highest 60fps)

Wait, so Nvidia Lovelace and some more stuff will use some other model of PCIe power thing?
And why does a consumer gpu need like 600w
a consumer PC gpu is basically another PC at this point
it has it's own RAM, processors, etc
I would happy to get 5600x and 3060
but price is fucked up
probably best combo in 2021
Oops, I didn't mean to write that
Definately
Vivo keeps releasing trash and repetitive phones here like Oppo
damn, a Mi A1. I wanted that phone back
that isn't quite obvious isn't it
hey
you guys heard the OP is slowly killing itself?
by going ColorOS?
OnePlus would be missed
damn, had such a huge potential
now it's a more obvious Oppo clone
and if they permanently kill OxygenOS, then that's it
I won't be considering them anymore
just get an Oppo then
Same
Running the 8t
Not upgrading to color12
I bought OnePlus only for oxygenos
And when oxs11 came out
People hates it
I don't miss OnePlus
But I don't have any other phone brand that I like
I hate Samsung
I am planning to get Pixel Experience probably on my OnePlus 7 Pro
Seems a better OS than OxyOs currently
lmao tf
thats just a scaled down version of a oneplus
except the display is smaller and the soc is better
lmao tf
every phone is just a scaled down or up version of another phone
except the display is bigger/smaller and the soc is better/worse

Best OS on android on my eyes
-Oxygen
-Android one
-One UI samsung
shit tier
-Color OS
-MIUI
Custom ROM is best
It's androids android
Oxygen is good
Color is shit yea is agree
but nowadays xiaomi is dangerous to do cusrom
i mean
gacha lol
imagine you just custom yer rom
but the phone suddenly ded
warranty gone
sanity gone
Damn it Xiaomi
I have a lot of trust in them for custom roms
I'll do some research about this first before I remove Xiaomi from my choices
damn
but bah
not that any different than before

and yeah
it's just Redmi 10 in disguise
Lol
Camera looks the same
the difference is just at the Poco logo lol
everything is redmi 10
I see
But I'm blind
crazy how cpu phase control can more then half my load on idle
should've enabled this earlier
I noticed how similar to a biological virus a computer virus is!
My dad says that the computer equivalent to cancer would be rust
What's cpu phase control?
Oh
To control some stuff for cpu
Auto cpu phase control fixes cpu usage?
no, just regarding to power usage
it will use less phases when on idle
= less power
yeah
np
did you know that Xiaomi always copy paste their phone
and slap their second brand
like Poco F3 is actually K40 or Mi 11X
Poco M3 and redmi 9T
MIUI is just a gate
Mi A1 is technically a lot better because of the Android one
for us to do Cusrom
I mean My OS on Poco F3 is shit
sometimes boot the phone just stuck on Poco Logo for like 5 minute
or random flashbang because darkmode error
oh yea I'm gonna drop this here

Main core have 2 thread and the small cores have 1 thread
on i9 12900K
8x2= 16 thread
8 x1 = 8
total 24 thread
big little kinda funny but
damn
12400 still gonna be the best buy since intel will price the i7s and i9s too high 
I choose 12700K
if in my country it is not above 8 million idr
I would be scared of other component price
ddr5 memory and mobo
or I will just go for 5800x
Im neutral in term of company
just for GPU I choose nvidia becuase of the feature
I didn't really care about infinix tbh
beliv in snap 800 series
wel thats actually good price tho
28K indian rupee is about 5.2million idr
OH NEO
I finally understand why Vivo and some other phone company call their phones Neo

only during festival
the regular price is 36k
yes
but you said infinix
which i thought was related to my username
since normally, people don't type it out

sorry
anythign with vib
or inx trigers me
not mad, but i think it me
since i dont' have context sometimes
There is a phone called infinix or smth
???
Aren't they the people who make Snapdragon?
Oh
I see, but I'm still confused
make fun of certain "company"
planned on making their own chipset for their phone
"we've currently"
prolly a new developed soc
which is, either google or sumsang
Oh it's google
Since Samsung had Exynos for a while
Definitely Google.
Qualcomm throwing shade over the Tensor chip in the Pixel 6/6 Pro.
whats so bad with the Tensor chip?
Tensor chip is stronk
yes
What's so bad about it
double big core
taking competition, possibly
Like, all of Google's hardwork into one chip
