For the new thread. Help me out here please!
Anyone have an iPad 3 ITT? I bought a replacement display for my iPad 4 but it was DOA. The seller is claiming the display will only work with the iPad 3 when they share the display model (LG LP097QX1). Aliexpress is looking to side with the seller over this dumb technicality.
So I need a pic of the back of an iPad 3 with a specific note. Serial Number can be covered.
I don't mind sending a few USD worth of BTC for it.
>>53874584
Hope someone can help you. How much did you pay?
>>53874557
she looks slav to me
>>53874578
don't i need a chinese id ?
if i a buy a tenga egg from aliexpress will it say its a sextoy and shit? never bought anything from china before
>>53874627
you can probably ask the seller to mark it just as toy.
Got the rock zircon and Note 3 Pro. Time to hibernate for a year.
Looking for an e-cig still though. Worth getting it from china? Anyone have a guide? Only had a shitty starter kit so I don't know much. Done some research but still lost.
>>53874627
it will say "penetrable high technology sex device" in big letters and it will be sent to your stepdad
>>53874597
45USD.
I didn't expect them to suck so bad.
>>53874624
She's not Slav, just wearing contacts. You don't need an ID but you will need to provide your phone number.
Can someone link me the pistons 3's to buy on aliexpress. There is so many and i dont wanna buy fakes.
Note 3 pro users:
Any of you have worse reception than with the previous phone? I sometimes get SMS about missed call and the 3g often drops saying I'm in roaming. With the lumia 640lte I didn't have any problems.
Also, could any problems arise because of a wrong locale? I'm in Argentina, because theres nothing else suitable.
>>53874659
Gearbest has them on sale

Slav here.
What you have to do is, adopt an infantile, hysterical and overcompensating yet cowardly mindset.
Once you have that, your facial features, body structure and wardrobe will change to accommodate.

Thx for the psychoanalysis, doc
miui photos app is not so great
>>53874866
u can download 3rd party app liek Quickpic
remember stock android doesnt even have a gallery app
it uses google photos which is fucking garbage that keeps trying to force google+ on you
Fuck me, I remember when CSG started and the pastebin was about 5 lines long. Everyone has done some solid work here. I wonder if it would be better to set up a wiki instead on installgentoo rather than the pastebin like /ptg/ has done.
>>53874908
lel yeah google photos is terrible. the miui has a great layout but not very accessible functions, and some completely missing (like new folders, hide folder, etc). gonna try quickpick and some others..
>>53874866
Use Quickpic. It's much better.
What was cakefarming and what does 'shark' mean?
Thoughts for first e-cig? Am I looking for the right type? Can I do better?
https://www.fasttech.com/products/3031/10012927/2440510
>>53875017
cakefarming was doing script kiddie shit to get points that can be used to get discount on items on gaybeast.
sharks are some cheap micro sd cards that promised good reading/writing speed and they were legit.
I deleted my last post. Typo.
>>53875017
>What was cakefarming?
The cakefarming game event ran from March 18, 2016 to March 24, 2016.
It also ran a day after. The lowest cake points were turned off after the event but some anons here reported a few 1000 cake point wins.
An SJW anon reported 4chan users that were cheating and all of our points were deleted to zero. Even mine. So most of us hate Gearbest (Gaybeast) from now on. We don't recommend you buy from there unless you want to. Because dey took our caekpoints.
>and what does 'shark' mean?
Shark is a micro sd card with a cute shark picture on them with fast transfer speeds at a affordable price.
>>53875017
where did you hear that

Shoo shoo stinky chinky. Plsu sharku.
How often does Xiaomi release miui updates ? IIRC was once a week, now once a month ?
>>53875111
>An SJW anon reported 4chan users
That's a lie. It's a Finn who didn't want you to act like thieving degenerates.
>>53875152
Weekly
>>53875152
it's been on average every 1.3 weeks I think, I don't know if there's a set release day or if it's been offset by holidays.
>>53875152
>>53875245
Is that just for the beta updates? I think I only receive updates like once every 6 months. I think I'm on the global stable release channel.
QKZ seem to have a good sale on their headphones at the moment

Phone works perfectly, and I fear new updates will bring problems.
>>53875267
where
which store
>>53875266
no the updates come that often to the China/Global roms. the developer ones get them more often and it's got a higher version number.
>>53875267
when did they change their name to QKZ
i thought it was just KZ
or is this not the same company

Just got Tom ford prescription glasses in nice as fuck actually fit my prescription as well. Ordered a 32gb shark tonight, never been this excited for storage in my life

Hey I think I asked you the other night about your 4G coverage and I lost track of the replies, but is it similar to Sprint's 4G coverage maps published online?
>>53875455
Sweet
Can you order tinted lenses too?
Anyone else waiting for Shark? From Gearbest?
Did they make you wait too? That's not fair. Everyone here has sharks.
Anyone one waiting for Sharks from China warehouse?
>>53875455
my father uses prescription glasses and I'm looking to hook him up with some off ali, that's really good to hear. got some sharks in transit.
>>53875471
yeah exactly the same. voice coverage is perfect but data coverage won't go without drops every 10 mins or so if you're gonna be streaming internet radio.
>>53875522
Sweet thanks. Gonna join da chinkphone+freephone cult.
>>53875486
Yeah they have a shitload of lenses to choose from message them if you're not sure what to get. They have them as separate items from the frames. Make sure you get your pupillary distance it's not usually on your prescription , I had to guesstimate mine dunno if I fucked up
>>53875576
>Tom ford prescription glasses
can you link on the exact shop ?
>>53875488
You want fast sharks you gotta buy from the manufacturer who has a store on Aliexpress. It's called Mei Dun Technologies. They ship even the 8GB ones with registered China mail and it arrives faster that way. Gearbest takes its own sweet time to ship using untracked Sweden surface mail which takes over a month.

Either way, I hope you are doing something about it is the main point. Shame that it's still the best gallery app around. At least for me shitty old phone.

I know nothing about 18650s but am I missing something here? 4.5 star rating with 175 reviews and only $13. I've heard chink batteries going hiroshima inside peoples' pants but do these seem to be okay? Would be using inside a flashlight.

tested on my Asus transformer, So i'm sure other anons will get much better performance, and yes h2testw confirmed it as legit 128GB.
Anyone had trouble with adware or botware on redmi note 3 pro rom?
>>53875702
Why do you even care?
Everything is botnet these days, the government is probably tracking your shit cycles too.
>>53875928

>>53874660
and flash the global stable 7.1.8.0 rom, just the googleware
>>53875911
Hey, I'm not advocating one version over the other, just want to inform. I just want to say that it should be done. That is the main thing I want to express.
And one of them works on older phones.
>>53875961
Hey, just because most stuff is a botnet doesn't mean you can't try to limit it. Just because you leave your door open doesn't mean you can't shit your curtains.
But anyways, I think we have said too much on the subject already, this is Chinese Shit General, not Chinese Botnet General.
>>53875980
you make very valid points.
I'd also like to mention that non shark cards are currently 20% off if anyones interested.
128GB for 39AUD.
>>53875999
shark card are a shitty meme it uses old memory chips that were built on old lithography. it will kill itself from heat sooner or later.
dpreview forums went over this and recommend against buying it.
>>53874584
If the description said it works on an iPad 3 only then you deserve to cop the cost of it, what kind of retard thinks the displays on 2 different devices will be cross compatible, even iPhone 5 and 5s displays are imcompatible.
You could probably pull an image off Google or some shit, it's not like some chink is gonna use TinEye to check.

It's been about 6 hours and payment hasn't processed on aliexpress. Is that bad?
>>53876042
It was DOA dude.
The only difference in the display assembly for the iPad 3 and 4 is the home button assembly. I know what I was getting into with the model being LG especially with the iPad 3 using Samsung.
Apple only started using LG with some of the later iPad 3 units and the iPad 4. IFixit concurs.
Does clash of clans work fine on redmi note 2?
>>53876121
it can take up to 24 hours.
>>53876128
Can you confirm the unit is DOA though? Is it possible that it would work with an iPad 3 and not a 4?
>>53876161
Is that included in shipping time? It said 15-45 days which I didn't see at first. Thought it was only gonna be 2 weeks at most.
I doubt it will take 45 days but I'm only gonna be at this address for around 25 before I leave.
>>53875821
>>53875790
But I like the 5TB cloud storage space they gave me.. :(
>>53876163
Honestly I thought so too. Maybe my iPad was just dead. Then I took it to the Apple Store and they said it was just the LCD like I thought so I ended up paying 160USD to replace the entire assembly because I was fed up with waiting so long. This was quite a while back and the arbitration has taken forever.
>>53876107
does installing google from the MIUI App store really work?
>>53876253

>>53876261
oh I don't have a Note 3 Pro, I've got a Redmi 3 so I was curious if global roms came with google.
how bad of an idea is ordering dirt cheap Micron branded RAM from Hong Kong?
People who own the Redmi Note 3 Pro, have you tried sticking in a 64GB or 128GB microSD card inside it? This website in Chinkapore (it gets released there officially tomorrow) keeps saying that it only supports up to 32GB expansion and then there is this post: >>53872661
>>53876341
I remember ordering dirt cheap 4 gigs to add to my existing like a year ago from ebay.
It didn't break anything and still works so there's somethings.

kek
>>53876355
what was it branded? this shit is stupid cheap and as tempting as it is i cant shake how dodgy it looks
>>53876386
Doesn't phone ram work similar to desktop ram where the more you have the more will be used?
And you know, who runs stock on a chinkphone?
>>53876386
that's actually worse than the 2gb version; android caches more apps on the 3gb version so it uses more than 50% of the total ram.
2gb with everything closed has 1.0-1.2gb free.
>>53876386
That's not how ram works buckaroo

>>53876358
That link also states the Redmi Note 2 has an SD card slot. None of the Note 2's do. I wouldn't believe any 3rd world websites stating specs.
>>53876418
This.
My windows 8 32bit install only uses 500-600MB ram on boot, while my 64 bit desktop uses 1.1GB on boot.
>>53876451
Really? So Xiaomi is basically off the market as far as buyworthy chinkphones goes?
>>53876451
if you had a xiaomi phone you'd know they still flash chinkware roms. you can flash fastboot roms without unlocking the bootloader.
>>53876468
Uh what. It does.
http://www.mi.com/sg/note2/specs/
>>53876475
Why would you say that?
They're still a pretty big Chinese phone manufacturer and still sell more than any other brand.

Bootloaders are unlocked of you ask the seller to unlock it and install global rom.

ok ill do it. I assume they have tracking so maybe I can say the address was wrong and just hide when the delivery comes.
>>53876910
Won't work on registered mail. Also Ali isn't ebay or paypal, they will side with the seller because they are wary of dishonest whitey who try to get free shit by doing this.

Silly question, even my shitty moto g with 1.5gb of ram and a 1.2ghz quad core can handle it.
>>53877154
ok thanks. clash on!
>>53877118

what phone do you have now that can't run clash of clans?
>>53877043

>>53877161
Stopped playing as soon as it turned into a several day waiting game.
Good deals on the Redmi Note 2 for my mam's upcoming bday (AU)? She doesn't even use it much but a bigger phone would be better for her right now. I want to use expedited shipping. Thanks senpai.
>>53877140
probably to avoid taxes and such
don't worry about it senpai
>>53877171
is there anything like clash of clans without the IAP nonsense? I do like the idea, but time gating everything is shit.
>>53877165
I currently dont have a smart phone. I just want one to play clash of clans though. My friend lets me play it on his tablet a lot
>>53877189
Nah. There are so many fun concepts in 'free' android games, but they are all ultimately ruined by p2w bullshit.
I like the idea of the simplistic leveling system of games like Heroes Charge (just gear up a party of several characters and train them and shit and just fight others)
But always forced to stop playing because it just turns into too much of a grind. Fuck this model.
>>53877184
It's €117 if you pay using the app. Buy her a case as well.
>>53877207
you know you can pay to avoid it right? you only end up spending what you would have outright just over time
>>53877214
Alright, you pay to avoid it. The thing is, paying to avoid the waiting doesn't remove all the waiting, it just removes the immediate waiting.
Like, you're building something in Clash or whatever other game. You can speed it up with p2w crystals. You do just that. Well congratulation, now you are building something again and waiting an eternity. Wanna spend some shit again?
It never gets better. At the beginning these games are fine, when the wait times are minor. But it just gets retarded after a while.
>>53877184
Big slippery phone for small hands?
Gearbest put their own ROM on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro instead of the stock ROM. It added a keyboard app, UC browser, and a few chinese programs, baidu botnet etc.
Flashed the current stable MIUI build and memory usage is reduced, a few less apps.
Solid as fuck phone, I'm getting 9-10 hours SoT across 3-4 days on a single charge. This is with the screen's auto brightness at 70%, basically overly bright just to show the phone off.
>>53877211
Not enough airbrush
>>53877214
Most of these games are slightly better than free flash games, worth $5 tops. $5 gets you enough "gems" to speed up production a few times, there's a reason they offer gem packs of $100, some go up to $250.
>>53877237
Fuark, I can't wait for mine. Going from a Moto G LTE 1st gen.
The hype is real dawg.
btw anyone using a case for their note 3 pro ?
I am still a little scared because of the round edges and sometimes the phone slipping in my hand, but i think ill get used to it.
Are there any cases directly from xiaomi ?
>>53877211
>>53877249
So they shop her to hell and back but couldnt fix her lips?
>>53877262
I ordered mine with a flip case straight from xiaomi.
Gonna see how it works. I'll probably end up buying some durable case, because I often tangle my headphone cables in something and my phone ends up taking a freefall out of my pocket.
Only reason my current phone is still alive is a silicone case. It would be probably long dead without it, so we'll have to see.
>>53877249
Now she is creepy
>>53877237
What photo gallery app are you using?
>>53877262
I ordered this case here:
http://www.gearbest.com/cases-leather/pp_317453.html
Fits the phone like a glove, but I took it off since I'm very careful with my shit and I want a thinner case.

Pastebin master here
I'll add some info on multimers.
I highly recommend the uni-t UT139C. Almost certainly the best sub $50 multimeter out there, it's even true-rms!
Not all Uni-t multimeters are equal. Some are quite mediocre actually. So I wanted to add some more info.
For now the gyst of it is:
<$10. Good enough for testing some batteries perhaps, but they will all be manual ranging (some that claim auto-ranging are really BS.) Your body will have a nice crispy complexion to it if you use it for anything with decent current or voltage. Avoid any multimeter that has "830" in the model number, they are all shit. But to be honest almost all multimeters at this price have terrible quality leads.
Remember: unless you can use a multimeter with confidence it's basically a useless gadget. spend the extra for the other multimeters below.
<$15 Uni-t UT136A, UT136B, UT136C, UT136D. Some of the cheapest auto-ranging multimeters out there. Quite basic feature set. The cheapest multi-meters I would recommend.
UT136A standard meter
UT136B from standard, adds capacitance measurement
UT136C from standard, adds temperature measurement and probe
UT136D from standard, adds non-contact voltage detection
The price difference between the A-D variants is usually minimal. Get the one with the feature set you need.
<$40 Uni-t UT139C
uses AAA batteries, which is a + in my book.
Let me know if you want anything else added to the multimeter info
it's a work in progress, this is just the first page.
>>53877316
Much better, saved thanks
>10 cent flashlight just arrived
and its pretty damn bright
>>53877249
Might as well go for the completely soulless look

>>53877341
Good idea, I like it.

Add some minor jewelry.
Something like a skull necklace if you're a fag

Not a fag but maybe some bracelet?
Or maybe a ring? With the risk of looking like a gypsy

It's barely used. I had no use for the bloddy thing
>>53877419
kek, this is why I want to avoid the tablet trap.
Phone and a PC is all you really need
it would end up gathering dust probably
>>53875152
im on the weekly build, so every friday, sometimes theres a second build on saturday/sunday to fix some bugs
>>53877431
I realised that, too late tho.
A tablet with Windows would probably be nice
>>53877431
I bought a tablet for $150 like 4 years ago; now we can get high end phones for that much.
>>53877440
Sure, a 10 inch tablet with Windows might be nice for sitting in a bed and playing old vidya, but a mobile OS is just bothersome to use on anything larger than a phone
>>53877438
how do you choose which build are you ? I just flashed global stable rom and have no idea how their updates work.
>>53877440
>A tablet with Windows would probably be nice
It is. Although I don't have a chinese power horse, but a iconia w1. it's pretty comfy.
>>53877419
so do most other people
mine is used for masturbation, and even then I'm sort of questioning it's use when I have a 5.5in phone.
>>53877457
I heard you can buy fleshlight straps for tablets
Think this combined with a Vmoda Boompro would make for a good combo?
http://m.aliexpress.com/item/32634103793.html
>>53877446
Well, I guess I technically didn't completely avoid the tablet trap. I bought a tablet like 5 years back from amazon. It was one of those shitty single core processor, 1gb (or something like that) RAM, 7 inch ALLWINNER tablets, jus to play around with the android filesystem, since I didn't have a smartphone back then.
But as soon as you get a smartphone, you realize just how obsolete mobile OS tablets are

>>53877448
I had a 10" x86 2-in-1 with Windows 10
Would not recommend
Sure it was nice having a real OS on a very light package, but it went beyond having all the drawbacks of a traditional laptop and then some. The keyboard and touchpad was very uncomfortable compared to a full size laptop, and using the touch screen instead is very inefficient. I say the same with the extremely expensive ones like the Surface Pro + keyboard cover, which I've tried too.
PC/laptop + Smartphone all the way
If you still want precise touchscreen input for drawing, writing, etc I'd recommend a business-class convertible instead. Like an X series tablet, or the ones from Dell, or Fujitsu. They're heavier, but I think it's worth it for the comfort of input, the more ports, expansion, better speakers, bigger batteries, etc. Or a desktop graphic tablet if you can.

I like the sound quality of the Ruizu X02.
I've been testing it on my ER4S earphone not my other earphones yet.
So this is not a final opinion of mine.
Better sound quality than my old Creative mp3 player.
Better sound quality than Moto G 1st gen.
Not sure about Note 3 Pro, I haven't touched it yet.
Not sure about iPod touch 4th gen, battery needs a recharge and it's in storage.
Ruizu X02s sound quality is worse than Fiio E10 and Z97M motherboard. For the Ruizu X02s price point the sound quality is worth it for its price. I've been testing it with 320kbps mp3s with a ER4S. I will review (blog) about it in a pastebin tomorrow or the next day after. I just received it today and I haven't had it long term. I have other earphones/headphones and I haven't tested them yet.
The things that make me hate it. I hate the fast forward. *This is really important*
You have to hold the button and you cannot hear the music until you stop holding fast forward.
I got used to the weird navigation but everyone else will absolutely hate navigating through everything and the settings.
I hate how you load mp3s into your micro sd card and you're forced to go through into your micro sd cards file storage.
I like it how you can record the radio station but you can't change any bitrate radio recording settings I think.
inb4 why no flac. I had to use mp3 because my old Creative mp3 player couldn't play M4A/AAC or FLAC to compare them.
>>53878015
did you try reflashing to the latest drivers? it fixes the weird navigation layout http://www.agptek.com/support/download.html
also FLAC is a meme, only audiofools buy into that :^)
Are Xiamo tablets any good? Opinions please
>>53874659
Just sort by orders, you'll pay a bit more but will always get the real deal
>>53878060
Thanks. I'll update it right now.
I still haven't opened my Dunu 2000J's yet.
I wanna compare it against my HD800 on both O2+ODAC and Schiit Magni2u+Modi2u.
I've said it before. Both amp combos are brother and sister and they both sound different.
I like using the O2 for musicality. I like using the Magni2u for that eye watery euphoric feeling without the warmness of the O2s sound. But IMO Magni2u will sound sterile and bright for anyone until you listen with them for two hours or so and understand why vocals sound great on them. O2 is neutral with online scientific measurements and I understand that.
Please don't ruin the thread by constantly posting random whores. Keep that shit on another board, buncha' loners.
>>53878119
$200 for some iems really nigga
>>53878181
Dunu 2000J is like a +$700 AKG K3003.
It says so online.
And a AKG K3003 is like a HD800.
Main reason why I got it during the AliExpress Anniversary app sale.

>>53878534
If you want to set up a business selling chink shit do it yourself you fucking nigger.
I just opened these right now.
Omg Ew. Too muddy.
Is my first impressions coming from a Etymotic ER4S. These aren't high definition bright sounding earphone like I thought it would.
It needs EQ just like my Piston 3.
I wanted to say Hybrids sound great but omg why. Vocals are absolutely DISTANT. And now I've switched to the Piston 3 and this isn't right. Vocals sound better and concise and alive on a Piston 3. My Xiaomi Hybrids are definitely not fake.
This is not a final opinion. I need to get used to the stock Frequency Response (FR) of the Hybrid. It feels so muddy, I'm so sorry.
Piston 3>Xiaomi Hybrid (Stock FR). I have to EQ these. They're too warm and something, it's not nice.
>>53877237
what color did you choose and can we have some pics
>>53878554
so it's not a meme in the end
any recs on how to EQ pistons 3?
>>53877237
How much was it by the way?
>>53878554
Oh yeah, One more thing.
The cable is very kinky when I opened it. My Piston 3s iirc wasn't kinky at all. Kinky means tangled.
>>53878582
I was testing the Xiaomi Hybrids on my O2+ODAC and Magni2u+Modi2u amps.
Using a Piston 3 on both amps makes the bass sound different and more boomy.
Using a Piston 3 on a motherboard or phone doesn't mess with the bass and it sounds normal and thin bass.
The Xiaomi Hybrids sounds great on a Z97M motherboard. But when amped it changes and it sounds REAL muddy.
Piston 3 is normal on a motherboard and when you try the Hybrids it sounds a bit more bassy (punchy) and that's it. To a inexperienced listener with no experience listening to more expensive stuff. They will have no idea what I'm talking about.
I suppose Xiaomi Hybrid will sound much better when it isn't amped. And when it's used on a motherboard or sound card. I don't have a sound card anymore. I gave away my Xonar DX years ago when I just received a Fiio E10 dac amp.
>>53878651
I prefer the hyrbids over my piston 3s. no idea why. i'm not an audiofile myself though.
>>53878554
Yours are fake dude. I got them directly from Xiaomi (they sell officially in my country) and they are nothing like you described.
>>53878582
>any recs on how to EQ pistons 3?
I can't answer this. You'll need to own another headphone and EQ the Piston 3 to match it by sound tuning it by ear.
I will upload a Piston 3, Xiaomi Hybrid EQ profile for a Z97 motherboard later. Not now. I'm too preoccupied with opening /csg/ things atm. And I wanna lay back and watch twitch streams or lurk the internet. I'll get onto uploading my EQ profiles later I promise.
>>53878675
Do you have them amped?
>>53878686
No.
>>53878675
I wish I could edit my posts. I said the same thing with my Piston 3s and I always thought that they sounded crap.
Refer to my post here https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/241564#comment-3585718
>>53878691
That's the reason why then.
Get a O2+ODAC. /hpg/ likes it. But I like both my combos.
Is the Note 3 Pro fully rootable etc? Thinking about getting one instead of a 6P.
>>53878705
You seem like a very indecisive person and I think it's very irresponsible to be spreading misinformation like this, especially for an item that has been wrongly labelled as crap because a vocal few keep parroting a single comment they read once by someone who likely doesn't even own the earpiece. You claim that the cable gets tangled easily but that's absurd because it's covered in an anti-tangle, semi-rigid nylon sheath that literally springs apart when you try to clump the cable together to get it tangled. Either you got a fake or you're letting those parroted comments get to you.
>>53878836
No problems with my Hybrids tangled cord.
I fixed my Monoprice 8320s and Panasonic HJE120s 300% kinky cable by using the boiling water in a cup trick and bending the cable and placing it for a moment. I fixed it.
Hybrid has kinky cable but Monoprice 8320 and my HJE120 is much more worse off.
>>53878767
This.
Also redmi note 3 pro works with UK LTE right?
>>53878865
There you go backtracking on your initial statement again. First you claim that it's "very kinky" but now you have no problem with it, but this should never happen in the first place because the earpiece cable was made to be anti-tangle and they did a good job. I rest my case. You're not fit to give product reviews at all and you should stop because it's not helping anybody.
Can the next /csg/ not be a Chinese Slags General?
>>53878953
Please buy a external amp. I don't want to be left out here in the cold.
If you have the funds or budget. Please lurk around a bit and decide on a O2+ODAC or something. I dislike this feeling that I'm a liar or whatever. Just buy the damn O2. Or a Fiio E10K (but I don't like that one).
>>53878953
And I'm sorry that I've pissed you off.
If that anon who wanted my review on a Piston 3 and Hybrid is still here and reading this.
I'm sorry. I can't help you. I don't want to do a full review on it.
Also that anon who wanted my thorough opinions and dislikes of the Ruize X02.
I can't help you. Sorry. I won't do the review.
I'm a (liar). Not. But please buy a external amp. I fucking hate this and do not want a this and that argument. Just stay ignorant. Main reason why I do not post on /hpg/ because they hate honesty from one friggen person.
I need to have multiple people backing me up. Please buy a external amp. Or shut your mouth.
