Hey /g/,
Delete this if it's breaking the rules but I really didn't know where to ask.
I've had pic related for a few years now and looking to upgrade, can anyone suggest a decent phone with a qwerty keyboard?
I'm looking into getting a Blackberry again but had a lot of trouble with my Curve in 2011.
Thanks for any help at all!

You can buy a Blackberry Priv if you don't want an Android device, they are pretty good IMO
>>55508163
Get a Blackberry Passport
Don't fall for the smartphone meme
Priv will be your best bet.

I hate that programs do this. It makes me think "shit was that a virus?" every time.
COMMAND PROMPT QUICKLY OPENS AND CLOSES FILLED WITH MANY CHARACTERS SO FAST YOU CAN'T EVEN READ ANYTHING.

french presses are technology
what's the best french press
Honestly can't tell the difference between my parent's $200 press and my $30 press. What matters is the grounds and the temperature of the water.

My Kona french press lasted me for about 7 months before the top started cracking about 2 weeks ago and finally shattered recently.

the filter tends to break apart in the cheap ones after a months use
but then again i drink a great deal of coffee
I'm so sick of reading off my computer screen. What's the least eye-straining device for reading 4chan and the occasional e-book on?
get an old ipad mini.
Moving documents around is a pain in the ass though since you can only do it with wifi
>>55508008
Old, as in 1st generation?
>>55508037
Yeah but only because its cheaper, get a newer one if you can.
And if youre against Apple just try to find a similar android with a good display and battery life. Thats all that really matters for reading
I've got an old mac pro 1.1 and have flashed 2.1 firmware and have it running yosemite. I have a Zotac GTX 570 in it and want to flash a mac EFI for boot screens can I do this?
>>55507940
>Mac pro
Nope, that's what you get for owning a locked down piece of shit.
>>55507940
>mac

I know this feel OP.
Try installing windows updates prior to installing security updates, it might be placebo, but it worked for me
What is /g/'s consensus on the $4 smartphone?
how long until they hand out these spying devices for free? how long until it becomes mandatory to carry them around like your id card?
>>55507841
hopefully sooner rather than later, I've never been able to afford one
Looks surprisingly fine:

When are we going to get zero motion blur monitors without added latency and darkened images? I don't care even if the panel that achieves this would be a TN, I just want something that has the life-like quality of CRT without the fuck-ups that ULMB monitors introduce.
Digital will never feel like analog, it's like yin and yang
CRT is an objectively superior technology. There simply isn't anything to replace it. SED and FED are kill. I don't know if Laser displays have the advantages of CRT, but I don't see it happening [in a relevant manner] any time soon.

you're not too bright are you?
This is in the roof of a train station, anyone got an idea of what the fuck it is?
maybe an antenna
hard to tell, do you have a picture of the whole thing?
Its a syringe. It injects a drug into the roof every 90 minutes that makes it forget everything that happened in the last 90 minutes.

looks like a wire holder mate
Why isn't it more widely supported?

>alpha channel supported for both lossy and lossless images
>animated images supported

I have been running a Windows 7 VM with Virtual Box. I am wondering is it possible to take that VM and install it on its own partition instead. If it is possible how would you go about doing it?
you can probably just drag and drop famalam
>>55507533
I don't think that will work.
>>55507504
it sometimes works, but that greatly depends on the target hardware. i have 50% success rate so far.
one pc works just fine, another one is stuck in reboot cycle and i have to reinstall from scratch.
Why don't you have a 4k ARM supercomputer yet /g/?
How long are you going to be an Intel Slave?
>unity
4k arm cores is not that much.

so the new version finally understands whether youre mocking your location or not, and the reason is is most likely because:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6880232/disable-check-for-mock-location-prevent-gps-spoofing/16776891#16776891
is there any way to spoof the gps in android without the explicit mock-executed code? or is there any way to spoof tinder without it actually cracking it? talking about new and future releases
Why would you want to spoof your frame rate in an app used for communication?
looks like i'll have to buy a phone just to use tinder now since i can't just use an emulator. thanks tinder.
think found the solution:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.brandonnalls.mockmocklocations
CAN THIS BE USED WITHOUT XPOSED REPOSITORY AND/OR FLASHING THE PHONE SOMEHOW? guess not
