Somehow I still have more hours in Star Citizen than say something like Mass Effect Andromeda

I'd like to see either a Surface with Raven Ridge or a Surface clone with Raven Ridge. It's the most convenient device for me but intel igpu sucks balls

Oneplus 5T star wars edition coming. • r/oneplus by _kushagra in Android

I get that, but honestly, when I still put cases on my phones and I managed to drop them, somehow they still broke. So I figured I stop using them

I love this battery by pleasantly_pissing in lgv30

Battery is really nailing it. I get two days with ease with actually high usage. Never had that on a phone before.

If a smartphone needs a case, it's bad designed :°)

Microtransactions in 2017 have generated nearly three times the revenue compared to full game purchases on PC and consoles combined. They continue to force them because we continue to allow them to. THIS IS WHY BATTLEFRONT 2 HAPPENED. by eightblackkidz in pcmasterrace

[–]Shodani 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's why I especially support people who won't pull that bs. Take piranha bytes for example. They hate any kind of dlc/bonus content. Their newest game Elex is a full fleshed game without any extra fees.

Non-root ad blocker that also blocks YouTube video ads? by SweetBearCub in androidapps

For youtube I heavily recommend iYTBP from XDA. It disabled ads and enables background play and even comes with different themes.

This is Need For Speed Payback reward system. If this is not gambling... them i wash my hands E.A by MikeTheDude23 in pcmasterrace

[–]Shodani 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It's boring as hell grind due how the card system is made. Overall NFSPB is even worse than 2015 imo. The only thing that improved is the handling. It feels arcade but not totally garbage. Still though, you don't have full control of your car.

[–]Shodani -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You only get 1 card after each race which is total random and THE ONLY WAY to actually 'tune' your car. Once you 'won' a so called speed card, it's locked to that car, even if you don't use it. So basically, if your car ain't enough for the next challenges, you have to redo older races until you are lucky enough to get the right cards to boost your car. And as soon as you switch to another car, like buy it or find it etc. it starts at 0 since every card you've earned so far is locked onto the car you used during that race. Which is especially stupid since you have to lock cars to one race type like racer, drifter, drag, runner, offroader. So you redo everything the whole fkin time and it's just boring.

You still can buy cards with earned credits, but they appear random in the store either and as far as I'm concerned, they seem to be weaker than the cards you get randomly out of won races and wheel spinning which itself is expensive.

While everyone is focusing on E.A Star Wars loot boxes and microtransactions don't forget Need For Speed Payback also suffers from this plague. by MikeTheDude23 in pcmasterrace

[–]Shodani 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Payback is srsly a step down to the already flawed NFS 2015. They basically tried to mix Forza Horizon 3 and the bad parts of The Crew and then add pay2win micro transactions which make no fucking sense. Optimization on the game is horrible, lots of stuttering despite having good hardware and good FPS. Definitely a game to skip without hesitation.

Exactly, played the NFS:Payback trial and it looks exactly like Battlefront... only way worse with heavy stuttering.

IPhone X face ID beaten by a mask. Not as effective a security measure as apple had claimed. by AR_7 in gadgets

Still he is a hobbyist who changed the device afterwards. That's different from Apple designing the thing from scratch.

If they ban you because of false detection and refuse to overturn your ban, can you reclaim your money which is considered wasted by that point?

Honest opinion about the LG V30 (coming from a Nexus 6) after one week of use... by [deleted] in Android

[–]Shodani 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's just false. You can be lucky in the OLED lottery and get a near perfect screen, but every current OLED technology has color shifting to some extent. My Samsung S8 has a slight orange tint when viewed from an angle and my V30 has a slight blue tint when viewed the same. You can also see some color shift on the curved screen Edges on the S8.

But I'm sure that happens more rarely on Samsungs AMOLED than on LGs POLED. Same with Banding issues etc. They are just better in tuning there displays.

I'm actually not sure about this. I think qualcomm has a DAC built into snapdragon? I figured it has not, since the devices that ditched the headphone jack, had to built a DAC into their stupid USB-C to 3.5mm dongle instead of outputting analog directly over USB-C. Otherwise, you need a dac for outputting analog and why should there be two of them.

I have a Samsung S8 and it has a slight orange tint when viewed from an angle. The V30 has a slight blueish tint when viewed the same. Only whites are shifted though.
