Almost every modern smartphone these days have a top tier display with 99% sRGB coverage and deep black levels(easily rivals professional monitors), even cheap ones have excellent screens. A good portion of phones now have QHD displays. But modern laptops are still on 1366x768 tn glossy panels. Even high end laptops have ok displays at best with very low brightness.
The only laptops that have ever had top tier displays have ALWAYS been macbook pro with high brightness and color accuracy with modern resolutions. Why can't anyone copy Apple in this regard?

Primarily because Apple buys all the supply of the really good panels.
Secondarily because they are expensive, which is one part of the reason why the Macbooks are expensive.
Some of the smartphone display technologies, particularly AMOLED, scale extremely poorly to larger displays.
>>
>>57904037
larger screens cost more, smart phone users are shockingly more discerning than the kind of people that buy shitbooks with TN panels
>>
Laptops are dying.
Professionals use stationary monitors or MacBooks.
The crowd of college students and nu-male hipsters still goes out to buy ultrabooks but they'll be gone for good in a decade, too.
Developers will still need computers but they'll be on desktops or a small range of remaining devices.
A shit panel is just what you get for a $400 best buy acer.

I wouldnt say they are shit so much as overpriced.
They got popular so now they can just coast along on brand recognition while releasing mediocre products at inflated prices for them sweet profit margins.
>>
The brand itself is irredeemable after they hopped on the peesee masdurr wace kiddie train, but they have no outstanding QC issues I am aware of.

Fucking do it NOW. The mouse and keyboard alone should net you at least $80 if you flipped them on eBay.
>>
>>57903488
About to say this. The keyboard/mouse are worth cash and prizes.
However, you won't get their full value unless you can find some local dude with a Mac Plus (or 512ke/512k/128k) who is willing to let you test them. But you'll still get enough to be worth it.

Do any affordable motherboards (not like the godlike carbon monstrosity) with an LGA 1151or 2011-3 socket have a 6.35mm headphone jack built in? Do any cases have this built in?

So I got an ibuffalo snes controller for emulation and for some reason this started happening - the L and select buttons register the same input and I don't know what to do about it. Any guesses?

Probably works on Linux.

It seems like it's a hardware problem. Write a small app in sfml and check if the signal is the same (Coming form the same input).

it also happens in mGBA so I'm pretty sure it's not just the joytokey program
