I'll be on tonight fo sho.

Just got my Pixel XL today, it'll be nice to have a battery back again. I've not googled around yet, how bad is the burn on on the Pixel screens? The 6P had some pretty wicked burn in, granted that was after 2~ ish years of use.

FYI: Amazon's Blowing Out a Ton of Storage and Networking Gear, Today Only I normally cross reference these deals with those seen on SlickDeals. Also, checking camelcamelcamel.com for all time low prices on Amazon never hurts easier. I haven't looked at any of the deals myself yet so double...

Unscientifically? At least for the earBUDS I'd linked, I'd say for the type of earmuffs you're referring to they are probably about 1/2 as noise isolating. For standard earPLUGS, they are about 2/3 to 3/4 as effective. ...unscientifically.

The earbuds I'd linked block out noise almost as well as my construction earplugs do, which is one of the major benefits of using them when mowing the lawn or other yard tools. Ditto for running the table, miter, or skil saws. No need to blast the music. Moot point.

I've done the whole "tuck the cord away" thing. I'd rather just use the bluetooth. 7 hours is plenty long when all they're being used for is mowing the lawn or using them as a phone ear-piece while driving here and there. Those perfectly good devices might not require charging but they also...

Ehh... Mine last 6-7 hours straight. And fuck having a cord connected to my phone/head when I am mowing the lawn/driving. Still dumb that companies are doing away with the jacks though.

^ Stolen from reddit: $699. No headphone jack. 5.7 inch screen. 3040mah. TLDR: Galaxy S8 minus headphone jack and worse screen Apparently a headphone jack as not "essential". Seeing as this phone isn't being picked up by any carriers it is going to sell like shit. It'll be interesting to see...

In the last week my Nexus 6P has gone from fine to damn near paper weight. Fucker can't hold a charge. I'll be at 100% when I wake up, check an email or two for a few minutes, take a shower, get to work 30 minutes later and I'm at 71%. Not sure I can wait for the Pixel 2 to come out at this...

You're probably right about the network switching. You could try doing what I do and just force it to stay on T-Mobile (or Sprint, or US Cellular, whatever is bet). I've done that for a long time and have had my phone forced on T-Mobile without allowing switching because T-Mobile is always the...

@Noodleface to be fair, the MMS thing isn't really limited to Fi. While I have had that issue a time or two, it has been far from egregious. Certainly not to the point that made me though, "Gee, I really should pay an extra 60 fucking dollars a month to get some stupid meme pic my brothers sent...

"Comcast" "Service" Yeah, good luck with that. (I know you're talking about the phone service itself but I couldn't help it).

Just got an email from Project Fi: We’ve got you covered in more ways than one. Next time you’re at one of the airports below, you may see one of our Travel Trolleys. Each trolley is stocked with free travel gifts such as playing cards, USB cables, eye masks, and more. Burbank Bob Hope (BUR)...

@Muurloen ditto. 8x I'm fine with. 4x is totally fucked for me.

TLDR: A lot of the combo routers have rebooting/restarting/general stability issues (modem side) and generally do not have as good of performance on the router side. It really boils down to stability more than anything else.

^ Awesome.

Well, setting up Pi-Hole was easy as shit. Now what to do with my second one when it shows up tomorrow???

Winrars:

Beefiness requirement: Any computer released in the last 15-20 years give or take.

That is their "boost" speed shit. I think I pay for 200 and I get 225-250 most of the time.

PSA on a couple headset deals: Logitech G633 is on sale for $70. Here is a review for the G633's: Logitech G633 Artemis Spectrum Gaming Headset Review | PC Gamer Steel Series Siberia 800 is on sale for $235 I have to use a wireless headset at my home office and can give these a thumbs up...

Do either of you have a recommendation for an OS to still for a noob like me? Probably would prefer to use one of the ones listed for Pi-hole: Raspbian: Jessie (lite / with pixel) Ubuntu: 14.04 / 16.04 / 16.10 Fedora: 24 / 25 Debian: 8.6 CentOS: 7.2.1511 / 7.3.1611

I've got an nVidia Shield/Plex/home server hooked up so no need for a media player.

Mmm home automation I don't really have anything like that, no Alexa or Google Home. I've been farting around the idea of getting a smart thermostat, though. I need to find an excuse to just go full-on smart home. Last time I brought it up my wife was like "...why do we need a smart coffee...

I just bought a couple Raspberry Pi's. One of them I was going to use to run Pi-hole and the other one I was just gonna screw around with. I've not done a whole lot of reading but anyone got any ideas that don't involve making a emulator or something stupid like that?

I'll be in soon. Drunkenly working on my garage. Add me (jeydax) and let me know discord info same user name or pm me I'll be on soon

Had my first game where I had a Level 3 helmet, vest, and backpack (I think at least). Of course, it was the first game I truly felt like I was killed by a hacker. I glanced at the kill log and noticed the guy had 3 other headshots in the 30-45 seconds after killing me. Not that THAT is...

Gotcha. In that case, unless you read otherwise, I think the SB8200 would suit you just fine. FWIW: Keep in mind a lot of companies will say "unsupported" for modems such as the SB6141 but they work just fine. Hell, even Comcast says the SB6141 is unsupported for me but I've been using it for...

Do you absolutely need to have Docsis 3.1? I have a Motorola SB6141 and I'm able to pull in 225 with Comcast: Note: Upload sucks because fuck Comcast. For routers I really prefer ASUS. I use an ASUS RT-AC87U and it has been flawless for me. The wireless on it was fantastic and the range was...

Great! In the meantime I was thinking same thing as Mist about the power state. Just go to device manager and find the adapter, see if there is a power management thing or two in there that you could tinker with. Could be the culprit. There is a USB setting in advanced power settings as well...

You're definitely not wrong Mist but that really doesn't help him. Could just be a shitty wireless adapter.

Got a link to the wireless adapter you're using?

^ I lol'd. If you're using an ASUS Router and not using Merlin Firmware, you're doing it wrong.

I used to totally agree with that @mkopec, which is why I'd never delidded anything in the past. I've owed every generation of Intel's microarchitecture from Nehalem all the way up to now at Kaby Lake. I was too paranoid. I'm not too sure exactly when these delid tools came out but my Skylake...

I was pretty blasted when I did mine. Probably helped me though because it helps steady my hands. Doing literal surgery work with essential tremor is not easy so, yeah, maybe I made the right choice? The only thing I felt super uneasy about was the "re-lid" process. I thought the kit came with...

I'm bored and have no one to play with tonight. If anyone is on and looking for a partner or another person, add me on steam (jeydax).

Got my 7700k stable at 5.0 Ghz after doing the delid process. RealBench 8 hour test (with 16 GB RAM) I'm averaging about 70° C. Running Playerunknown Battlegrounds I'm at about an average of 63° C. Feelsgoodman.jpg Edit: For reference, I was getting 90-92 C at 4.9 Ghz pre-delid and it wasn't...
