I think it fought with my headphones in subzero weather and the headphones won
Which is weird because I've totally dropped this thing from like 5 feet multiple times before and even accidentally into two tubs of liquid and it came away with nary a scratch but whatever my contract expires in august anyway
My college's student association contracted out a website for the athletics department to a third party. Athletes all get a little box that comes up with some of their information when you hover over their name. It's in WordPress, so they're storing this information in a post.
The fun part is that they don't have a template for those posts. When you try opening the link to the post, whatever browser you use will crash. I haven't tried Firefox, but Chrome gets the "oh snap" message and IE just dies in a fire.
I used wget to save the html and found the reason:

I still don't understand why people put their phone in their bag. That kinda defeats the purpose of having one if you're not able to know when texts, calls, and notifications in general are coming in.

I believe he's referring to the "Made in the USA" stickers that he has on all of his products. They wouldn't put that sticker on the product if it wasn't made in the USA, would they?
It's a special "homemade" adhesive, too! :v:

My Galaxy Skyrocket II is likely due for retirement considering its starting to chug with all stuff on it. A format might be place but I'm not so sure.

Wonder if it could be turned into a Mini FTP server.
That'll be neat.

That's the wonderful thing about Android devices. Even after they're long obsolete, you can repurpose them for something.

If I ever get a new phone, I'm going to use my GNex as a dash cam. Video quality is good enough and I have a phone mount. 32 GB is plenty for a couple hours of video too.
I guess one can also repurpose old iOS devices as well...though they're honestly not that useful without a jailbreak.

The current IDE I have isn't helping either. It seems to get stuck on making a new project and it can't even find the SDK, even if it's on the right folder.

The issue with that is the battery drain, as far as I know there isn't a cable you can buy that will also charge your phone/device while using OTG.
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;43788604]Better question.

Because I like being in my room and the router is too damn far as a result so this fluctuation is common.

Yup, at my school, at least the area that we're located in, all the computers are WYSE thin clients.
Question, what's the difference between a 200 dollar 23 inch tv and a 200 dollar 23 inch monitor? I'm not actually looking at anything, just wondering.
[editline]4th February 2014[/editline]
Would it just be things like refresh rate, input lag, and connections?
The monitor will probably have a better resolution, and generally have a better picture.
I've seen lots of tv's claim to be 720p when they're really more like 680-700p
everything will be better on a monitor for pretty much any purpose including gaming. TV's have larger latency and some other weird stuff
Monitor will have things like DVI, VGA, possibly DP/HDMI, while the tv will probably just be HDMI and composite, sometimes VGA etc.

This house is fairly old. Around 10-15 years, however remodeling has been done so wiring is inconcise.
a 10-15 year old house is not an old house
just run some cat5 through it ya wimp
My mums house is over 150 years old (obvs been modernised at some point) and powerline was faster and much stabler than wifi.

You can pick up powerline kits for £15 these days so its not like its a massive loss if it doesn't work.

Nah, I generally don't drive for longer than 2 hours in a go anyway. I have a one I did through DailyRoads and it was 120 MB per 3 minute clip at 720p (which I use because 30 fps). That means I could cram about 12 hours of video on there.

TV will have things like a digital tuner, compoment, composite, and HDMI inputs that you would typically have on a TV. Monitor will probably have VGA and DVI. Possibly DP and HDMI. Monitors also don't do any post-processing on video besides basic color adjustments and scaling, so there almost no lag. TVs usually do noise reduction and 120+ Hz ones do smoothing, which can introduce input lag due to processing. Note that those features can usually be turned off, but TVs are usually pretty quirky as computer monitors when you bring in overscan, zoom features and etc. Which are all non-issues on monitors.
Basically, they perform a similar purpose, but are not really meant for the same thing, due to the completely different feature-sets. If you need a computer monitor, don't get a TV and expect it to just work. I've personally never seen a TV that does being a monitor seamlessly, and some are just outright bad at it. Plus, with monitors, your a little more flexible with the resolution, and not just limited to pseudo-720p and 1080p.
If its primary purpose is to be a display on a computer, get a computer monitor. If you want to use it to watch TV and Blu-rays, get a TV. Its that simple.
