Gonna install Splashtop to see if you can stream 360 controller input... if you can that would be great, cos then it's Steam Big Picture all the way
[QUOTE=TippZ;41673384]i meant the socket![/QUOTE] That's what I mean, the socket/outlet has little shutters that only open if you have the top prong, it also acts as an earth, but a lot of stuff doesn't use it. It changes from socket to socket though, some only open if you put both line and neutral in at the same time, or all three.
our sockets only open when you put the line and neutral at the same time [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/23/Schuko_plug_and_socket_annotated.png[/IMG]
Our sockets are always open and as a middle school student I was partially responsible for starting a fire by putting a paperclip into a socket. :I I was kind of a terrible kid.
and well, it confused me as to why it needed the earth prong when our chargers look like this [IMG]http://cdn.slashgear.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/MicroUSB.jpg[/IMG]
[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;41673505]Gonna install Splashtop to see if you can stream 360 controller input... if you can that would be great, cos then it's Steam Big Picture all the way[/QUOTE] You can, if not natively you could always use xpadder/motioninjoy to emulate button presses. Either way it should work. I don't have my xbox controller here so i cant try.

[QUOTE=RoflKawpter;41664285]Anyone know what I can do to download INSANE amounts of data on my phone (bonus if it actually benefits me somehow)?

For instance I get 800kbps over ADSL but around 5000 over 3G. Which is really cool. If you need to upload videos to YouTube fast or want to stream in HD over Twitch or something similar try it out
Moto X analysis: It's tapered like the One, except the bottom gets less rounded and the top is more rounded. It has two batteries like a Zerolemon for 2200 mAh. Wood back is real. X8 SoC is nothing special beyond custom DSPs. Display is 720p AMOLED RGB stripe. Camera sensor is finally bigger than 1/3" at 1/2.5". Motorola claims best low light performance in industry. The speaker is like HTC's, with an amp to dynamically boost volume. Otherwise this is nothing special, I feel.
The Moto X just screams "Nexus 4 except without the interesting parts" IMO

Oh wow, that seems like an awful lot for a mid-range phone. I was only looking forward to it because of the price and customization, but it it's $600 then that's definitely a deal breaker.

The Nexus 4 is so fucking superior to the Moto X that it's not even funny.
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;41674011]Correction: it only works in fullscreen with Nvidia. AMD needs to be windowed. Otherwise it streams fine. [/QUOTE] I couldn't get fullscreen to work with Nvidia, I just got a black screen.
I really, really want to support a phone manufactured in the USA. But not the Moto X. Looking past the technical aspects, launching early only on AT&T and customize only on AT&T is no fun at all.
Oh god the hype and hopes got smashed
rip moto x boner time to wait for the nexus 8
Moto X doesn't even have µSD support. What a loser
[QUOTE=K1ngo64;41677097]Moto X doesn't even have µSD support. What a loser[/QUOTE] Neither did the N4.
Can Tasker change the battery icon to show one of the icons with %number in CM when the battery is lower than 15%?
You guys have probably allready seen this but [URL="https://github.com/dz0ny/leapcast"]https://github.com/dz0ny/leapcast[/URL]. It is a bit buggy at the moment but a working Chromecast emulator
pretty cool for HTPCs i guess
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;41673253]Purportedly, gaming doesn't work unless you have an Nvidia GPU.[/QUOTE] huh? Splashtop have been working fine for me, gaming and regular, and I have the HD6850.
Verizon, yet again, fucks it's customers right in the ass.
