What's the best OGG/FLAC/MP3 player for your buck? I've been looking at the ThinkPenguin model personally. Having an SD slot is a must.
I have a Sandisk Clip Zip with Rockbox firmware. 8gb in the device and 32 from the SD card. Only problem is I don't think they make them anymore and the new Sandisk players suck. Most smartphones can play those files and accept SD cards. IME Galaxy phones have good sound quality.
>>52643946
generally clip zips can be found at best buy still for a decent price
Sansa Clip with rockbox.
If it's still on sale for $96, the Fiio X1.

Are you building a silent PC?

I shudder to imagine transferring 100 GB of songs over MTP.
I am pretty sure Linus is not allowed to advertise inside his videos since jewtube won't make any money etc
I am not talking about shill builds but about actual commercials inside his videos:

That's pretty humorous b8, OP.
It's funny because people aren't that dumb, and you're pretending to be that dumb. Comedy gold.

Pathetic winshills are coming
Is it just me or does w10 absolutely rape hard drives? I know they always do something when idle, indexing, checking for errors et cetera. It should not use hdd to the fullest for several minutes though, to the point where the whole system is unusable.
I've seen it happen on fresh installs and upgrades from 8. Does it install some shadow updates without any notifications? What the fuck does it do?
Who /powerpc/ here?

Nope, still going to university and working on campus.

>Internet Advertising Bureau's Randall Rothenberg says Adblock Plus is an 'unethical, immoral, mendacious coven of techie wannabes'
>"We had never invited them in the first place," Rothenberg said on Monday. "They registered for this event online. When we found out, we cancelled the registration and reversed their credit card billing. Why? For the simple reason that they are stealing from publishers, subverting freedom of the press, operating a business model predicated on censorship of content, and ultimately forcing consumers to pay more money for less – and less diverse – information."
>Publishers and advertisers are particularly unhappy about AdBlock Plus' plan to generate an "Acceptable Ads" platform. This would let a brand subvert the ad blocking if it paid a fee and its ad meets specific criteria.
>Rothenberg went further by accusing adblockers in more general terms of illegality: "Many of their business models are undoubtedly illegal. Already, Shine’s model of ISP-level ad-blocking has been cited by regulators as a probable violation of net neutrality principles," Rothenburg said.

If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W/P SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™
Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", lightweight

Does upgrading the RAM on a T420 from 4 to 8 GB make a big difference?
>>52640053
Depends if you're maxing out your RAM and having to page to disk/use swap.
>>52640053
are you constantly using up all your ram?
or even running near the top
Can we talk about which CPU is the best price/performance?
I lurk this board and everyone seems to love the 4690K, 4790K, 6600K, and 6700K. I look at the prices for them and they are on totally different spectrums. You can get a 4690K/6600K for like $230-$250 while the 4790K/6700K is easily $330-$400. In what way is a 6700K worth $70 more than a 4790K or a $150 more than a $6600K?
It seems absolutely ridiculous. I get that the 6700K is an i7 and has HT, but when are you ever actually using that unless you're some professional who is editing images or rendering...

>>52639997
Get the 4690k . I just bought a i5 4690k yesterday from amazon for $230. will be here tomorrow. I had originally got a g3258 at microcenter, but fuck that dual core meme. I can't even play new games with it. Guess I'll have to sale the pentium on craigslist or just use it for a different cheap pc.
thanks for reading my blog. Happy to have a decent quad core incoming, should last a good while.
Because it's hard to justify buying the haswell architecture, that's been around for almost 3 years, and still paying the launch price.
This is what a monopoly looks like.
why do you hate this so much /g/?

Fucking hell, when I had this phone a few years ago it was perfect, now it's literally unusable, to the point I can't even listen to shit on Poweramp and use Chrome at the same time because Poweramp gets killed after the phone starts killing all processes as it runs out of ram.
How often you see people still rocking their ancient but still perfectly working iPhones ? Meanwhile these fucking Android even if they're ex flagships become LITERALLY unusable after a while. Now my iPhone 6s is getting repaired and I'm stuck with this unusable piece of shit,...

That happened because someone with autism tried to disable automatic updates. If you leave it on, the updates will simply install without bothering you.
