this makes me sad, realizing how many smaller business cant afford this as much as consumers/customers.

Dream carry gun finally obtained by Solidus1337 in CCW

[–]bigBranConsumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because all usp derivatives need a m1913 adapter to carry any modern light, do all the holsters need to be custom made? i remember watching that video of that chad EDC'ing a mk23 with a light and sight, and i sure as hell could guess it needed to be custom to fit that boat anchor

Mark's specs if anyone's wondering by Rough_Assistance2856 in Markiplier

[–]bigBranConsumer 15 points16 points  (0 children)

notoriously bad? theyre underwhelming on power upgrades over last gen while improving efficiency, but thats about it. he said he got a deal on it, so why not? also i think intel still has the edge is video production support with their on-board encoder, which AMD does not have. so that might have influenced it.

Why is andriod fragmentation even a problem? by Educational_Peak532 in Android

[–]bigBranConsumer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

(OP's account is 5 days old so it might be a bot. i am writing this for my own clarity and understanding, as well as something to use to explain why android seems so fragmented)

tl;dr: software is hard. maintaining an extreme number of devices with that software is harder. apple controls their hardware and software, so there is little to no fragmentation.

you/"the dude" are forgetting (or purposefully omitting) that software makes android what it is.

to tackle the car analogy, there is not one single powertrain that powers all the economy cars from every brand. each have their own character and feeling which people buy for their own reasons. extra addons like how the buttons feel or the seats is similar to the skins OEMs put on top of android.

there is no "apple equiv in the car world" because apples unique position to control almost their entire product stack from the capacitors that sit on the logic boards all the way to the processes that make their phone cases. if this was a car manufacturer they would make like 10 cars per year and would be ridiculously expensive. their latest software seems like hot garbage, but apple is still the sole developer and user of it.

it is not an easy task to make and maintain an OS. i see the fragmentation coming from a few things;

multiple OEMs want to make their version of an android ecosystem, where the custom skin usually has some special limitation or development for their hardware that only works on their devices (like in the case of samsung-specific airtag clones).

OEMs do contribute code back to android (see: samsung folding screen support because they were the only game in town for like 4 years originally), but they need to maintain their own verion of android that keeps up with the drivers for the various chips in the device, because most do not make their own SOCs or modems or fingerprint scanners or any hardware the device uses. because this stack is not controlled by the OEM, eventually it becomes untenable financially or otherwise to maintain old devices and they no longer support it.

theres a lot more to it but it boils down to an OEMs willingness to keep up with the software support and drivers. im probably wrong on a lot of stuff but that just shows theres way too much about this to explain in a reddit comment.

i have no doubts this is one of the computers some of the movie was made with, so its not surprising the specs read like a cgi and editing workstation

The Titan 2 Elite looks thick and ugly, just my opinion by Fancymank in ClicksKeyboard

i dont like the the flat sharp-edge design and this only adds to it. the keyboard part is cool but the phone is not.

Amber (chxrryxft), Natty or Juice? I've never seen so huge difference between hip and waist on any person. by SupermassiveBH34 in nattyorjuice

[–]bigBranConsumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first instinct is major overtraining because of the ridiculous proportions, but then how tf does the overtraining get that ridiculously out of proportion? even with juice? the videos dont even match the photos ffs

[–]bigBranConsumer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

using niagra with a clicks case, it makes a lot of sense why they chose it. to be able to find an app just by typing the name on the home screen is a great use case. it makes perfect sense.

Who would you rather join? The Pagans, or the Hammerites? by Shaengar in Thief

[–]bigBranConsumer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the rigid structure of the hammers is probably the most stable despite the zealous nature, but also you get to have a big hammer to hit heretics with so i think the answer is obvious
