The Lounge 0001 [From the Beginning]

Asshole move, but probably cheaper for Samsung to use the same hardware and adjust the specs/features to their tiers.

I think it was more of an oversight than anything else, iirc I think the phone used to support it at launch but lost the feature after a software update.

Could also be seen as the opposite: they forgot to disable it at launch and disabled it via an update.

I get that but why would Samsung even disable something like flac support on purpose? all it does is make the device worse without any reason. it doesn’t make any sense at all.

The less features there are available to lower-end phones, the more people are buying mid-tier or high-end phones to get those features -> more money.

Why buy something more expensive when the cheaper alternative does the same?

but its flac support, Free Lossless Audio Codec every device imaginable has support for it (maybe except apple) even the competitors devices at the same price range.

Minor Video games news:
Sources: EA isn’t going to force any loot box on Anthem. Instead they’ll just have cosmetic DLC like Titianfall 2.

A minor aside: Paradox owns all the rights to White Wolf Publishing : World or Darkness, Mage, Vampire The Masquerade. They bought it from the people that own EVE Online. That’s old news. Anyway, they know people love these series. They will likely make games out of them. It’s just a matter of time.

Some things sell better if you advertise them to do something specific. Underline that expensive device a is aimed at audiophiles while cheaper device b gives you the same experience and device a will still sell more.
Meanwhile, if you want to use better headphones you’ll need a dedicated amp, so why not just get a dac/amp and a cheaper phone?

Haha, done. Now to test and see what the new temps are like with the 4 slot freaking cooler lol

Today the team I’m with now had a meeting: no headphones anymore… the group looked at there phones too much.

Ha fools. Work doesn’t know I have memorized 4000 songs of my music library [though when i imagine a song, it gets stuck on repeat for a bit], The Truman Show, Walking Distance [From Twilight Zone], and Mad Max Fury Road. Also I’m a writer so I can imagine a story to keep myself entertained.

hmm so I’m not sure what is causing this but since yesterday my mouse will suddenly stop tracking at random times and flicker at the same spot for around 5 seconds before it starts tracking again. its really weird annoying :frowning:

Razer?

Then I don’t know. Synapse caused something similar for me on Win8.1.
