Open the test function and scrutinize the navbar/statusbar area for burn in. Then:

I bought a Note 2 in Novermber 2013 and used it for 25 months, almost always at 50% brightness for around 5-6 hours SoT per day. I always kept it at 280DPI, and for the last two months, there was some slight burn-in. The status bar area was brighter when the screen brightness was at minimum with a grey background. There was darker dots where the first two notifications and clock would be. It wasn't that bad and if the Galaxy Alpha was better I would've bought it over my Z3 Compact.
I don't know how you guys are managing to get burn ins that quick.
Pic related is a Galaxy S2, used since release. The burn was impossible to see unless I turned off all lights, covered windows, etc.
JESUS. Is there any hope for Windows 10 Mobile? Will Windows 10 Mobile die? There seems to be no hope.

Yes Windows Phone is shit, not exactly news. Least customer satisfaction by a significant margin.
>>52130135
you think this shit is going to recripple itself and officially die?
Why has Microsoft had such consistent issues with bugs and crashing over almost their entire history?
The whole claim that MS shit is prone to weird bugs, crashing and rot has been made consistently since at least the Windows 98 days and now they still can't get that shit handled on Windows phone 10? really? Is it just some old code they insist on still using in all their new products because they don't want to reinvent the wheel?
What are /g/'s thoughts on this fat fuck?

Why don't you have suicide Linux installed, /g/? It's a script that changes any invalid/ mistyped command into rm - rf --no-preserve-root.
that is quite fun, but i play games which i get on kickass torrents so windows is better for me
I've patched rm to ignore --no-preserve-root
There used to to be a sysadmin-version of doom, where the system deletes a random file every time you die.
Converesely also one where you kill jobs by killing enemies.
I just got a new laptop with Windows 10, what's the best way to disable (most of) the spying and general annoyances that come with it?

They are trying to maximize penetration faggot. Turns out calling people ethnic slurs and acting like a /b/-tard in the work place can affect productivity and harm your company's image.

Any suggestions of host? I don't trust 'reviews' and 'comparisons' from various technology websites which are immediately followed by referral links.
wordpress.com? They host blogs for free.
>>52129476
Yeah but wordpress.com is inflexible. I'm doing this shit properly.

Shameless shill of a friend's hosting: voltihost

RASPBERRY PI BTFO
https://youtu.be/eMslj0aj9LU
You do understand that some microcomputers like the Raspberry PI aren't 100% optimized to run this kind of stuff?
Unbenowst to you, there are people out there that time on actual Raspberry Pi projects, not just setting it up with a shitty Android OS to play gaymes and view the dank memes on the net.
>>52130997
Orange pi pc costs less than half as much as the raspberry pi 2 and outperforms it.
Or you can pay the same price as the pi 2 and the the orange pi plus 2.

Get a NAS op. Ive never had to worry about space since setting mine up

Don't fall for this meme, just buy a bigger HDD
Buy a new HDD then
>>52129029
If you have the money/know how and need for more storage it's a super good investment. Building one out of an old motherboard and amd APU I had atm, probably going to cost me around $60 to make it into a NAS.
What's your favorite Linux distro and why.
I use good ol' Debian with KDE plasma.
Arch. Really nice package management is my main reason.
>>52128859
Arch/SystemD
Mint 17.3 with cinnamon.

Who PC-BSD here?

Hey anon. Just use it a few weeks, then forget about it and just use FreeBSD. You'll see FreeBSD is so much better without all that extra bs.
>>52130570
FreeBSD is interesting but no x server installed by default is spooky
I'd like to use DroidCam with the flash on, but the app doesn't have a flash function. So I'm trying to find some app that turns the flash on so I can open DroidCam after that with the flash still on. Most apps instantly turns off the flash when you close them.
The built in one on the s4 works outside of the app.

No. The LED flash is connected to the camera, and takes exclusivity. If the LED is being used for app A, app A is technically using the camera. You cannot use the camera in two places at once.
Apple as a company isn't really known for the best software, but IMO they have a few apps that aren't bad for the money. In no particular order:
> Safari.
Though I still use Chrome as my main browser, that's pretty much only because it has more features and extensions. Safari (IMO) is the best browser in terms of displaying web content the way the designer intended it to be displayed. I still find that Chrome often fails to show page elements that I see in Safari. One example is this site:

Is there any point to this thread?
Why are you trying to sell us sprinkle colored shit? Do you think anyone would actually listen to much less fall for it? Are you positively retarded? Mentally handicapped? Get out, get out and go hire someone to end your life for the betterment of all of us.
I forget what it is called, but my friend told me about an app that they have that allows people to connect their Iphones between toilet stalls in public restrooms and make new friends without having to rub feet or other signals. I think this is a good thing for the apple crowd. It makes it easier for the rest of us to use the facilities as well.
safari is garbage

I don't have anything to hide. I don't give a shit if some guy sitting a room somewhere sees all the tranny porn I look at. Hell I've even told a few friends about all the disgusting porn I'm into.

Why do they shit on the street?
What the hell are Google possibly trying to learn from these CAPTCHA? This is a technology question.
I understood the words and the street signs faggotry but this is driving me nuts, they must be a deeper reason for this? Is it trying to teach their algorithms differences between certain color combinations? What's it for?
>>52128757
Shapes, maybe?
Either way, don't be a cuck, and switch to Legacy Captchas. Don't work for Google for free.
>>52128757
it's christmas, so they're not being evil for a brief period
>>52128757
they did this around thanksgiving with cartoon turkeys too
i think it's just a holiday thing. like, they're giving us easy af captchas as a sort of gift.
