Find a charger that takes a cr2032, then ask yourself how often you need to change your bios battery, then kill yourself.
>>
>>57256911
So what, retard?
Have it charge annually.
BBWC could be charged every 2 days

Lel, most normies don't know that Bios requires a battery.

What TV does /g/ use?
You guys have never steered me wrong before, and I'm in the market for a new television. All I'll be doing with it is streaming my desktop on to it, so I don't need any of this smart TV roku shit.

Well, the rx470 and 480 are slaughtering the 1060 so it's no surprise.

Market share up 11% YoY. Not bad considering their strong seller has only come out recently.
Good things to come in 2017. Debts are down, and revenue is trending up.

Why do people defend the lack of micro SD card slots on phone?
Why would anyone pay $100 for 32 GiB more of storage that's obsolete the moment you change your phone when a $50 128 GiB micro SD card can be carried forward to your next phone?
Why do people even need more than 16 GiB for apps on their phones?
It's like getting a laptop with an SSD and no removable optical drive to add a hard disk for additional storage.

Because even my $150 chinkphones eMMC destroys the fastest micro SD.
Don't be a poorfag, buy the better model phone with larger capacity and stop relying on unreliable slow piece of shit micro SD cards.

I only put pictures or videos on my micro SD card though. 16 GiB is enough for applications.

Nice hardware for sure. I might buy one at some point if they hackintosh well or at least are a good fit for some flavor of Linux. No fucking chance of using them with the OS they ship with though.

It'll work fine, pressure sensitivity and all, as long as it registers as a tablet. People have been modding macbooks into tablets since at least 2009 (see modbooks) and third-party external touch displays work fine with OS X. Apple doesn't cater to touchscreens with oversized UI elements in their desktop OS, but it works.
How do we end the Linux meme?
My school is making me use it to write my code, I've always just used Notepad++.
Fucking bullshit.

It is a momentous occasion today, as I have ditched iOS (what the hell was I thinking?). I have returned to glorious Android (Cyanogenmod to be exact.)
Everything just seems more, free. Tomorrow, we get to watch Apple become even more irrelevant after today when Mircrosoft beat them so severely you could hear the screams of a million homosexes cry out in unison.
I am sorry I left you Android bros, but I'm back.

It's a few decades late to the party of safe systems languages and will be about as successful at taking over as Ada was. In other words it's a literal meme. With that, its shitty C heritage, and the SJW community, no, you shouldn't bother learning it.

What's the difference between hardware accelerated rendering and hardware accelerated decoding?
Most precisely, in the context of the Flash plugin (yikes, I know): I can enable/disable either of them, or both, and would like to know the difference.
In my mind, GPU accelerated decoding is the execution of video codec code by the GPU for e.g. H.264 or HEVC streams, while GPU accelerated rendering is the execution of OpenGL code by the GPU for rendering of 3G graphics in e.g. video games.
But now I'm not so sure. Also, I don't see how hardware accelerated rendering relates to the Flash plugin, contrary to hardware accelerated decoding. Why would I need to render 3D graphics when watching H.264-encoded porn on a Flash website?

Flash isn't a video player. It's primarily a format for vector animation. Hardware accelleration makes that not slow as shit.
>>
>>57256687
Right! Yes you're right, I should have remembered that, I read Homestuck after all.
I'm thinking, hardware acceleration might be used too when one switch Flash videos full-screen, doesn't it? GPU-accelerated decoding for reading the video and GPU-accelerated acceleration for scaling it. Or is it done in CPU?

Nah. Apple co-developed it and Thunderbolt 3 is a superset of USB-C anyway.
No point in not using it, it's a superior point in every way.
>>
>>57256281
Good thing the card says "no Thunderbolt 2" then.
>>
>>57256281
People hated on Thunderbolt and Apple for fucking years. Now high end laptops have it and Apple has dropped off and people are shitting on Apple. The thought it was proprietary Apple stuff. It's used a lot in industry but has relatively low consumer use.
Thunderbolt is better than USB in every way except for adoption rate.
Same with Display Port, so much better than HDMI in practically every way. DisplayPort is always a year or so ahead of HDMI. Then HDMI attempts to level the playing field shortly before or after DisplayPort makes improvements.
