So warframe livestream on Friday not happening. Iā€™ll still be playing warframe on Friday just not livestreaming it. If you have warframe and want to play with me from 8 to 10 pm et just send me a message or tag me here. I think I have most of you on steam.

In light of the fact that Humble Bundle is giving Spec Ops The Line away for free, tommorrow Iā€™ll be posting my Black and White ReShade Preset for Spec Ops The Line on Friday. The Tomb Raider and Rise of Tomb Raider Presets will be posted Saturday,

neat so my Windows VM has had an issue where it would freeze during disk operations like due to emulation from virtio so I swapped my windows drives around and passed through the SATA controller and now have full performance of my disks. The VM now has its own GPU, USB/SATA controller and Ethernet card. its basically its own system at this point XD

The storage controller on Android devices really seems to be shit. Slow af and timing out after only a few minutes of transferring files.

Speaking of Android: should there be a category on here for mobile devices? (phones, tablets, laptops, etc)

Damn, that Xiaomi Mi A1 really seems to be the phone for me. Not much coverage from English sources on YT though. A lot of Indians but those have weird priorities when it comes to phones (cheap Windows Phones were a big hit in India for example).

Or not. Depending on the used display there seems to be image burn-in from the status bar. Bummer.
Thatā€™s why Iā€™m paranoid when it comes to ā€œcheapā€ stuff that seems too good a value.

Maybe would depend if there much need for it. We opted to have less categories and to use tags for more fine grained sorting instead of having 100s for every hardware type. The way it works now is anything that canā€™t be covered in one of the categories goes into other and tagged as such phone, tablet, laptop, android, etc and works fairly well. We do have an #software-and-operating-systems:android and #software-and-operating-systems:ios section in software and operating systems though.

That isnā€™t exclusive to ā€œcheapā€ stuff. even my LG G5 has really bad screen burnin on the edges and the status bar, its mostly caused by white object and if I leave my phone open on the forums the entire left side is usually filled with @Dje4321ā€™s avatar for some time XD

So this would all go into the ā€œhardwareā€ section with the according tag then?

I thought we left the burn-in issue of screens behind us? My phone is ~2 years old now and I donā€™t notice any burn-in. The symbols in my status bar are always the same and white. And itā€™s considered a ā€œcheapā€ phone (under 200ā‚¬ iirc at the time it was released).

Itā€™s a shame. Stuff like that makes it a pain in the ass to find the right thing for you. Weighing all the pros against the cons. Sometimes it feels like weā€™re taking steps back in some areas.

Yes, you can even tag more than one thing if needed. it works better this way because users can define their own topics how they want.

Yep I do know specifically that LG has had an issue with this for a long time. Most of their displays Iā€™ve used usually get burnin after a couple of years or so.

Yea isnā€™t great. my LG ultrawide is just over three years old now and near the end of last year I noticed a faint line down the center of the screen and our old LG TV had a similar issues. otherwise the displays are really good through

2 displays ā€œgluedā€ together?

I know thatā€™s a thing but it definitely isnā€™t that. The line meets exactly where my browser and terminals separate in i3 and is about the same thicknesses of the divided space plus it isnā€™t exactly in the center of the display.
