[QUOTE=fishyfish777;52589115]One thing that has infuriated me for quite some time:
Why does this adapter not exist for Type A Male to Type A Female

You would think the usage of USB Type-A connectors is so popular that [I]someone[/I] has to have made a port saver that harmlessly snaps off when tugged on instead of yanking the entire fucking device off the table and damaging the everloving shit out of the port.
USB ports are always the first things I wear out in a computer before anything else, why don't this shit exist? Has literally no one on the USB design board had a cable tugged on before?? DisplayPort cables are even worse too.[/QUOTE]
I have never worn a Type A USB port out nor have I known anyone else who has, wtf are you doing to your computers :v:

Only issues I've had with a USB A port was the front panel ones on a half a decade old Antec case shorting to the case (probably) resulting in constant "a usb device has failed" messages. Not really an issue with the connector though.
Upgraded our internet from 75/10 to 150/20 for no difference in price, just extended our contract. But now our speeds are inconsistent. but I'm on an old 4x4 SB6121. Might get a Moto MB8600. It's DOCSIS 3.1, but supports 3.0 at 32x8. Which is bonkers.

I got an MB7420 last year and I've been quite happy with it.
The only ways I see USB A ports break is either the little Middle tongue snaps out (friend's ancient HAF) or the whole port slides out of the case (brand new Silverstone)

I've broken the middle tongue a few times before, but that's because I was being retarded, not because the connector "wore out".
Ordered the MB8600. 32downstream and 8 upstream. Should be solid.

Comes tuesday. i7 7700HQ, 512GB NVME, 16GB Ram, 3yr warranty with 3yr accident. Paid a bunch extra for the warranty. But I can write it off on my taxes easily since it will mainly be my remote editing and support computer. Oh and 1080p display because... $400 for 4k on a 15" screen is NOT worth it to me.[/QUOTE]
4K on a laptop display is a terrible idea anyways
But the PPI DUDE. THE PPI.
[QUOTE=Brt5470;52592636]But the PPI DUDE. THE PPI.[/QUOTE]
Have fun with the worse gpu performance, less frame rate (in Google Chrome, I remember Google maps lagging a lot when you moved around the basic map itself), worse battery life. But hey, it's 4K! Typically the 4K panels are the closest you will get to a colour accurate display on a laptop these days anyways, which is annoying.
Wait, you can buy and rent movies on steam?
Wee, my main display died. LG 23EA63V-P.
I spent a few hours trying to figure out how to open it, because I reckon I know what the fault is, but I just can't figure it out. There's no screws, and I couldn't find any plastic claws holding it together.
Probably going to order something similarly cheap to replace it next week.
The Samsung S24F350H is looking good, it's available for cheap and it has FreeSync.
Bit confused on the model numbers though.
AMD's FreeSync monitor listing has a panel with the model "S24F350FHW" with 48-72Hz FreeSync range and an IPS panel.
The vendor I'm going to order from, lists it as "S24F350H" with a PLS panel.
The product page on Samsung's website has "LS24F350FHUXEN" in the URL, and lists it as the "S24F350FHU".
The user manual refers to it/them as "S24F350FH*".
I'm confused, but somehow not worried.
Edit: Ordered the thing, 2-4 working days estimated even though they don't have it in their old warehouse. Interesting.

Don't think there's been a point-of-sales that I've ever worked with that wasn't garbage.
There's a reason why they share an acronym.

Some more testing. When I use Xfinity's speed test I get between 80-120 Down and 15-20 Up, but that's if it's using IPv4. When the test finishes it says if it's v4 or v6. When it does IPv6. It's like 1.5-2.5 down and 6 Up.
SO I turned on IPv6 on my Asus RT-AC1900P, and it's now 130 down 20 up on both IPv4 and IPv6. That said, I'm still dropping tons of frames in OBS, and the connection isn't stable. So the new modem is still going to be useful. Especially since it has some neat statistics and diagnostic tools.
Edit: Turns IPv6 back off and speeds are shit again. Interesting.
Edit2: So maybe I don't connect to the net with IPv6, so it's doing some sort of translation layer? But when I set it to native IPv6 the router handles it?

On my Asus router enabling QoS totally breaks IPv6 performance in a similar way, so that might be a good place to check.
Now my Nexus 5X bootlooped on the same fucking day. Jesus.
It's annoying that it happened on the same day, but in the long term, it's not that big of a deal. I have a replacement display ordered, and the Nexus is within warranty. I'll just drop it off tomorrow at a store, then it'll be 2 weeks without a phone.

did flash an update or something?
[QUOTE=Scratch.;52593122]did flash an update or something?[/QUOTE]
I was reading IRC when the whole phone froze, shut off, turned back on, flashed Google, turned off, flashed Google, turned off, stayed turned off.
Tried to start it, starts boot animation, dies. 100% typical bootloop.
[editline]20th August 2017[/editline]
The display's problem was the mains adapter that was supplying 19V.
I disassembled the display, soldered wires directly to the control board, used a soldering iron to burn two holes for the 19V and GND wires, and now I have my adjustable power supply powering my screen.
A bit more than 2 hours before my WoW raid. Not even bad.

My old phone broke from an update flash
can't even claim it for a refund since I have to go to queensland for it
pretty aids
The Nexus 5X/LG G4 bootloop is a bit different, Qualcomm pushed the fabrication process too hard for the SoCs, so some units will just simply have transistors that die out over the lifetime of the chip.
I mean LG seems incapable of putting out a phone without bootloops in general.
It's a good phone attached to a time bomb
[QUOTE=Levelog;52593295]I mean LG seems incapable of putting out a phone without bootloops in general.[/QUOTE]
Afaik the V20 and G6 aren't susceptible to boot loops
But it really makes me wary of any phone with a short warranty anyway. Why the fuck do phones come with a 1 year warranty if they're designed to last 2.
Man, Origin really is a piece of shit.
I'm installing games to my new rig. Install my entire Steam library, 1.8TB, disk ended up with 1% fragmentation, just a dozen files that got split into two fragments each. Install my entire Origin library, 40GB, disk ended up with 12% fragmentation, and basically every file Origin touched was spread across 40+ fragments. One was 445 fragments!
How do they even do this? This was on a brand-new, freshly-formatted disk, has never had less than 30% free space.
