How many of you guys have the new Galaxy S8? Is it really worth the money and have you had any problems with it?
>>61006951
looks too big and unwieldy
also come on man
like anybody here can afford that thing
>>61006951
I have the s8+
I love it. Only minor complaints like the bixby button...otherwise it's beautiful and not too big like I was worried about. And it's fast don't notice any "Samsung slowness" that people talk about at all.
I have s8+ as well. This is the first Android phone I've had since the Nexus One that I haven't put a custom ROM on (it's currently impossible unless you have the international version, but that's beside the point).
It runs great, and like the other poster, the only truly dumb thing about this phone is the bixby button. Other than that, it is absolutely the best phone I've used yet--and I have retardedly high standards. I thought for sure I would return it having come from a 6p with a custom ROM, but surprisingly it has worked out.
Love the screen. If you need a new phone I wouldn't discourage you from the s8+.
If requesting purchasing advice, please provide your country and what carrier you will be using it with, along with wanted features, budget and size.

That's Mozilla's fault.
Is kbps sufficient to tell the quality of an audio file (music)? I usually download music from YouTube, and often I get 320kbps mp3s, which is the same bitrate of purchased music.
It's a good start, as with anything you have to remember that if more bandwidth has potential to be better, doesn't mean it actually is.
You need to convert the 320kbps MP3s to flac for higher fidelity. Foobar can help with this.
>>61006442
>I usually download music from YouTube
Youtube sound quality is shit, even if you save with FLAC format.
Bitrate only matter if it came from lossless or original source.
So I'm downloading a few of my videos from youtube and I'm not sure what produces the best quality. The website I'm using will let me choose from the following:
1. MP4, 30FPS, 2700kbps, high bit rate audio (125kbps) @44khz sample
2. AVI, 60FPS, 49kbps, low bit rate audio (3kbps) @44khz sample
I know nothing about this stuff, can someone translate this into idiot for me or perhaps share a better download program/website?
>>61006361
Do you want 30fps or 60fps?
Do you want a High Bitrate or a Low Bitrate?
Do you want MP4 or AVI?

Previous thread >>60992438
Update on the Bagelsport: the case diameter (without crown) is 36mm, lug-to-lug length is 42mm, and the strap width is 20mm.
Adjusting the bracelet is infuriating, as half of the screws don't come off properly. A bunch of WUS users had the same issues.
The watch itself keeps time really well (for a mechanical), it's fallen behind about 5 seconds in the past 24 hours. The lume, from what I can tell, is so bad that it's useless.

If you don't know the answer maybe you shouldn't be messing with custom ROMs and root

Give it back, Jamal

What's so bad about webkit? I don't understand how something that powers the most popular web browsers manages to be hated so much by /g/
Because unless it's overwhelmingly unpopular it's a botnet.
>>61006092
>it's overwhelmingly unpopular.
Could you try any harder to be inaccurate? Come on, you know this is straight up wrong.
>its a botnet
Can you prove this? Or are you just saying that cause it's not 'open-sores'. Can we ever stop pretending that open source matters? It is not like you retards actually understand programming, so why do you pretend that you inspect the software you use for 'botnets'?
>>61006042
It takes hours to compile because lol C++. Otherwise it's fine, I guess.
Is the Phenom II X6 series the most underrated series of CPU ever?
As someone who owned and used one for 6 years, no.
It was called thuban.
Decent CPU for the time.

No. It's to be forgotten. There is literally nothing positive worth mentioning about it.

no wonder why pajeets are replacing you, kek
I desperately need your help, /g/
Got this ~6 year old PC as a gift from my dad since hes getting a new one
But the mainboard battery ran out a while ago, so we have to replace it
Problem is: We cant find the fucking thing on the Mainboard. I simply dont see it.
the PC in question is a packard bell IPower 19650 GE. Please help a Nigga out
IDK if the pictures are any good for identification, Ill keep em coming
>>61005768
>>61005768
It's built into the power supply.
Get it out and open it up. I'll identify it for you there.
>>61005768
It's hiding under the GPU. You will have to remove the GPU to access it.
And while your at it, I suggest moving one of the ram sticks out of the first memory channel and stick it on the second one. The one you want to move is the one closes to the socket (the one in the first blue slot), and it would ideally be in the second white slot.
