    Honestly, I don't see how phones can really matter. I am the same person I was when I had an iPhone 4 as I am now with a Moto G4. I haven't changed because my phone has changed, nor has my phone changed because I have changed.

    I really haven't been looking at this one enough lately. "What phone is best for love" is a problematic to be raised awareness of.

    These days saying goes, no phone, no love. It is ok if you lack a finger, but if you lack a phone, well, you are not valid then.

    sigh, its getting on my nerves now that if you want a quad core laptop you have to pay out loads for a gaming line laptop or a signature laptop, like we have had dual core laptops for what 11 years now from the Intel Core 2 Duo, you'd think it would be better now, who knows, maybe Zen will make quad cores mainstream.

    Setting it up is a bit of a chore, but it's very user friendly afterwards.

    Oh, btw... sudo apt-get install htop

    You'll thank me later.

    This has temporarily turned into a Linux fanboy thread.

    Everyone should move from Windows to Arch.

    Is downsampling 4k worth it or just a waste of fps? Because i dont notice that big of a diffrence exept that the trees and interior in beam look a bit nicer but i also now struggle to get 30fps

    I do it but I have the horsepower to do it. If you're struggling to hit smooth frame rates with it you certainly shouldn't bother, I'd take max settings 1080p over downsampled low settings 4k

    im currently at high settings 1440p in beamng with my 750ti but i getting from 27-31 fps and its okay for me but i think 1080 would be better because i could up the dynamic reflections

    Actually there's a good reason I posted my "diecast" here:
    DSC03380.jpg DSC03382.jpg DSC03384.jpg
    It is in fact an optical mouse, disguised as a 240Z!

    As for the laptop, it's just a shitty F550Z. some specs include:
    GPU/CPU - AMD A10-7400P 3.4GHz (with integrated Radeon R6 graphics, I think...)
    RAM - 8GB
    OS - Windows 8
    It's nothing special, but gets the job done.
