What is the best laptop ever made and why is it the Dell XPS 15?
16 posts and 2 images submitted.

>>56641718
Does it have a 1060 or 1070?
>>
>>56641753
We don't know yet. Dell just announced their Kaby Lake refresh for the XPS 13, which doesn't have an option for anything other than integrated graphics, but hasn't said anything about the XPS 15 refresh as far as I'm aware. My guess is they'll give it a gtx 1060 and mayyyybe an option for the gtx 1070 on a higher end model only because of the increased power efficiency.
>>
>>56641798
because quad core kaby lakes are in q1 2017. they can't announce any shit right now. it will probably have i7 7700hq and gtx 1060. worth waiting.

I've got NBN FTTP. I get about 100/40 and I'm located about 200M from the exchange, so i've got best case scenario.

I'm pretty sure it's dynamic. Like with most ISP's the only way you can get a static ip is if you buy a business plan

headphones are Tempo Nirvana noise cancelling.
My reasoning?
>because that's what it sounds like.
>doesn't change volume with the rest of the stuff
>mixer shows silence while its happening.
>avira, spybot, and malwarebytes say no virus or malware or anything like that.

Reasons maybe not:
>unplug headphones and it stops
>goes silent when i mute pc.

I think i'm picking up on someones bluetooth. I have tried
>restarting computer
>repairing audio drivers
>disconnecting from the internet.

Bluetooth uses radio waves. Just like wi-fi. Just different frequencies.

How did you think the GPL works? If you license your own work under the GPL then you fail to include the source code, that'd simply make you a liar.

What's so good about .flac /g/?

>Songs on a retail CD and lossless songs have frequencies that extend all the way to 22 kHz. Since lossless to lossless transcoding preserves all of the data in a music file, the spectral of a lossless song will look the same in FLAC, WAV (PCM), ALAC, etc.

>Different types of MP3s have different frequency cut-offs. MP3s also tend to have a “shelf” at 16 kHz (you’ll see it in the spectrals).

wew that was hard. You could argue "b-b-b-but you can't hear the difference!", but it's still good for archival purposes so you could encode the file in various lossy formats without fucking everything up.

>>56641174
>ou could encode the file in various lossless formats**
I keep stuff in .flac on my music player for some files but a lot of stuff is in other quality lossy formats like .ogg

Just because you can install an operating system on a computer doesn't mean your hardware manufacturer made drivers available for that operating system.
Check linlap to see if your laptop has good compatibility; read the user comments to see if there's any advice.
Also check your laptop manufacturer's website for driver files. Maybe they published non-windows driver files but don't be surprised if those are not provided or do not exist.
