IYO what is the best current smartphone and why?
> pic related
US$600 buys you near stock Android with faster performance than 99% of you cucks need (inb4 muh SD835), all of the expected reasonable/useful features (waterproofing, SD slot, headphone jack, fingerprint scanner, wireless charging, 2K) and very little bullshit, as well as not looking like retarded Samsung "c u r v y" approach or Google's blatant iPhone knockoff (which is itself criminally outdated)
pretty much the only thing I could knock it for is the 32GB starting storage and spotty features based on region, but the G6+ will supposedly fix both of those if they manage to release it in the right places

Did I mention I had to RMA the SE before I smashed it?

What went so horribly wrong?
the marketing department wanted bigger gigahertz so they made it reach 5GHz at the expense of everything else, also it had really bad branch prediction and inappropriately sized GIGANTIC cache lines, about 4x bigger than anything available today.
Naturally, this led to lots of cache misses, forcing dumps and rereads from main memory nonstop which made the CPU work harder for no reason.
they fucked up so bad they had to go back to pentium 3 and all their modern chips including all the core derivatives are tangibly still based on P3.
It was marketed as a CPU instead of a space heater.
Intel let the Marketing Department take over the design.

Hey /g/ so i set up a fully working Rtorrent with Rutorrent interface and here rises my question, I have attached a powered external HDD and mounted it to /media/HDD now when i try adding torrents to rutorrent it only gives me access to the pi's 32GB SD Card at /home/pi and i can't access or save files to /media/HDD and whenever i try that it gives me "Failed to add torrent. Incorrect downloads directory was specified.", any idea how do i let rutorrent have access to the external HDD at /media/HDD ? Thanks in advance
does it have read/write permissions?
>>61037096
how do i make sure though ? (it's my first time so please be patient)
>>61037096
aight i think it does, i already used it with deluge and was able to access it just fine before, set up a plex server on it as well and it seems to work just fine
Why did USB 3.0 become USB 3.1 gen 1?

IIRC 3.0 has major EMI issues and 3.1 was meant to fix it

Lineage OS is great.
Otherwise if you tell us the model, we can shit post about other roms.

Is there really no way to upload an image without compressing it and getting default filename?

How do you guys feel about manjaro and linux mint? Any positive/negative experiences? Also, it says on the wiki that linux mint website isn't safe, so where would I go download that?
So I have this script to take screenshots via keybinding#!/bin/bash
DATE=$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S-%N)
case $1 in
-s)
$(scrot -s $DATE'.png' -e 'mv $f ~/Pictures/Screenshots/')
;;
*)
$(scrot $DATE'.png' -e 'mv $f ~/Pictures/Screenshots/')
;;
esac
But for some reason, whenever I call the script from my i3 config like this,bindsym Shift+Print exec --no-startup-id ~/Scripts/screenshot.sh -s
It just wouldn't usingscrot -sfor some reason. But whenever I remove the -s from the command being executed from the script itself, it takes a screenshot. I don't understand whyscrot -swon't run from a hotkey.

>Clarify your goal for build improvements: lower price or improved specs?
CPUs:
>G4560 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R5 1400 - if you can't afford better or specifically need 8 threads but not a very powerful CPU
>R5 1500x - All you really need for 60fps with power to spare; Don’t get an i5.
>R5 1600 - Best value for higher fps gaming / mixed usage; Get a 1600x if you don't OC
>i7 7700k - Bad value but best144hz CPU
>R7/Xeon/Threadripper - Compute/Multitask/mixed use; Not required for just gaming.
GPUs:
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and very light games
>RX 560 and GTX 1050Ti - Lower end budget cards, drop settings on newer games
>RX570 - 1080p@60hz at high, running most maxed older games at 144+hz.
>RX580 and GTX1060 6GB - 1080p@60hz maxed, 1440p@60hz at lower settings; Go for the RX580 if you can.
>GTX 1070 - 1080p@144hz /1440p@60hz at high
>GTX 1080 - 1080p@144hz / 1440p@60hz maxed, 4k@60hz in a few games; Probably the highest end card you need for 1080p/1440p.
>GTX 1080 Ti - 1440p@144 hz and 4k@60hz maxed/high in many games; You're kind of going overboard with this one.
