>What the fuck is wrong with the developers at Google?
Where do I begin...

>>56351937
Try looking harder. It's a deliberate design choice.

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=105666

>We're not going to do Firefox-style lazy tab loading, because when we tested it we were extremely frustrated with it. This isn't an issue of not thinking of it, or not listening to people suggesting it, not "taking you seriously", etc. We simply don't agree that the benefits of this are higher than the costs. One great thing about having multiple browsers is that other vendors can make different design tradeoffs and users can use other browsers when they find something that suits them better.
>For anyone still watching this bug, we've made a few rough improvements to our tab restore algorithm and are looking to refine it more. The ultimate goal is for session restore to be fast, leave the browser usable at all times, and stop loading tabs before the system becomes resource-contended, at which point any remaining tabs will be demand-loaded a la the Firefox option.

Apple antennagate style bullshit. "If you don't like how our thing runs, you're the problem."

go fuck yourself Comey

Hate to rip a comment from slashdot but this was the best riposte I saw

>Yes, Director, the room you're charged with exploring is dark. It's dark not just for you but for everyone. This include people who want to steal our identities or the contents of our bank accounts, who want to take personal pictures or conversations and broadcast them to the world without our consent, who want to perform corporate espionage, who want to see us to prey upon us and our children. Turning on the light may let you see, but you're outnumbered by the criminals in the darkness who are begging you to flip that switch so they too can see.

>If you're willing to step it up and protect us from all those monsters in the dark, then tell us exactly how you plan to protect us and MAYBE we'll let you flip that switch. But somehow I don't think you want to commit the massive amount of resources that will be needed to protect us. If you don't, we want the light to stay off.

why do we still pretend to have """debates""" on these issues? Everyone knows by now that they listen to everything, legally or not. If they feel it's not easy enough they'll push through the "American children defense act" or something

Accidentally smashed my Note 4's screen (not too much - so I won't change it but enough to root the shit out of it and make it a side phone).

Note 7 = shit.

LG/HTC/Sony/Motorola = mediocre

iPhone 7 will probably be shit (first ones are always buggy, until 7s comes out).

Google phones = botnets

Chink phones = shit

Why would anyone not get the snapdragon one?
Also most software problems will be prob fixed with the 7.0 update

> iPhone SE ***
+ Affordable
+ Great battery life (iOS)
+ Simple as fuck (great for newbie people)
+ One of the best cameras on market (except G4/S7)
- 16gb can cause problems later, 64gb is too expensive
- No replaceable battery

> Xperia Z5 Compact
+ Affordable
+ Water proof
- It's fucking slippery glass all around (I have one)
- Cases? All of them sucks ass. There is no good case for this phone.

> Galaxy S5
+ Water / dust proof
+ Good size
+ Still good specs
- Old, no updates anymore
- Specs are a bit outdated

>>56351670
And yeah while the S60 is durable, some grease or some shit can go into it, and can kill the phone.

So it's not like it's bomb-proof or anything, it's just a bit sturdy. Also I am sure if it would get dropped from a ladder, it would get some nasty cracks and scratches.

>>56351676
The *** (which applies to most phones other than the S60) is "slap a tempered glass and case on it".

Obviously an otterbox is NOT an option, it's way too huge, way too thick to be carried around. I was thinking about some Spigen case for the SE.

bump. no one ever had to recommend a phone for a field like this?

(S7 is out of question because it's very, very expensive considering how easily it could break. Same for HTC 10, it's a neat device, but also very expensive.)

>>56351642
>first world problems

Don't worry they're already getting ass blasted by radiation constantly in space so i don't think they're going to feel sad due to a lack of it.

>>56351642
Surely they get vitamin supplements. Op have you tried taking vitamin D?

>he wasted his life caring about what worthless disease-laden whores thought about him instead of doing what the fuck he wanted

>>56351639
>he wasted his time on an anonymous imageboard telling people who do those things they wasted their life instead of using his very valuable time getting AIDS and drinking alcohol

>>56351639
I wasted my life living to my parents expectations.
They wanted the best for me, but it was a too narrow path with a definite deadend.
All it did was turn me into a depressed man in His mid twenties trying to get his shit together and work on his depression while I also try to get into the dating life.
This made me escape into vidya.
So they just delayed my youth and my childhood for their selfish desires and made me a social and somewhat mental cripple.
At least I have found out that programming is fun.

Install gentoo

>thanks!

Moviebox? It's a web app so you go to the site and add it to your home screen rather than through the app store. I've not used it in a while to know if it hasn't been nuked yet though.

What the fuck, Torvalds?

Why are they beating that poor trash bin

Support and warranty, as well as pricing.

>>56351558
You buy the cheapest one with the best specs and send it back to the retailer if it breaks.
All the time I see people say "I wouldn't ever buy brand X because they make bad laptops"

>>56351550
It's mind control, essentially.

Restore points are not a thing in W10 ?

>>56351452
I tried. Even re-installing 7, and going back to the newest Windows 10 update. Still getting stuttering and lag when I draw or play anything.

>>56351442
ur gpu is going to shit

Hell yeah it does. the best feeling in the world is having your dick sucked while working on a project.

>>56351417
Yeah, though I can't speak from experience (30yo KHV) but I'm hitting a productivity and lack of interest wall due to no social life

>wasting all your time satisfying a disgusting 3DPG makes you a better programmer
lol no

>>56351169
You have 4, correct?

>>56351169
I got mine off Craigslist. So guess.

None.
But then, will anyone reply with a number and timestamp of them?
