Giant chins edition

Assuming this isn't a HiFi MP3 player. Is their any reason to buy one anymore? I mean for $20 instead of buying a chink mp3 player, a moto e with sd card support can be bought. Or a iPhone 4s for around $50 if you want a decent dac.

the last ugly generation of iPhone

but we agree

practicality > aesthetics

These things get hot as fuck and very slow after a few years

I own a Thinkpad x131e mostly due to price, I know its not a t420. But essentially a 11" version of them. I really don't know if the x131e just sucks, but the track pad is horrendous, lenovo's software is buggy, whitelist for wifi cards and battery is 5 hours most.

I owned a MacBook Pro 13" 2011 before this and every laptop I owned after never compared in usability.

yeah that's normie mode
it detects how many times you access facebook/twitter/tumblr etc. and permanently downclocks the cpu because you "don't need all that power" and "it's probably time for a new one"

You can restore it to normal mode by growing a pair of testicles, cleaning out the fan, reapplying thermal paste and installing gentoo.

Is this true or subtle trolling? I need a new laptop

How the fuck is that ugly?

You should leave this board.

Explain

>have one for 6 years
>windows 10
>cpu is never above 40°C
you did it wrong.

That chink design

Nah that's gook design.
Chink design is way worse.

...

...

You need to clean the fan by taking the thing apart, and also apply new thermal paste
The service manual can be found easily on google and will explain how, you only need a screwdriver and thermal paste

but they have comfort switches

you leave my portapros alone

Are you trying to say that porta is not ugly?

You leave them aloooone!

Ok.

I like this one, it looks like a prop from a film.

mfw this pic is not shopped

Nice job including the taskbar and window, you goddamn idiot.

The precursor to it was even worse.

it's near impossible to find one of these with a top that isn't yellow

That's actually really pretty desu (except for the cf back) but I'm afraid to inquire about the price so I'll just leave it at that.

That design must've have been decided by a guy that likes to say things like "it looks like it's moving even when it's still".

What is this thing even?

The technological equivalent of the habsburg jaw.

But grados aren't in nearly the same price bracket, why compare them?

you are the one mad, you ok?

you're too stupid to be on Sup Forums - Technology

>track pad is horrendous
yeah, it's ass. use the trackpoint
>lenovo's software is buggy
agreed, but why would you have windows on such a machine
>battery is 5 hours most.
is that bad? boy I'm missing out

Grados are the ugliest consumer headphones you could possibly see.
This is of course ruling out absolutely niche shit like the AKG K1000 or anything Stax.

yes getting rid of windows, cleaning the fans and reapplying thermal paste all help
he is not trolling

disagreed

It's literally a S4 slapped on the back of a compact camera.

Ugliest tech? Modern slab smartphones.

Apple or Android? Samsung or LG? Who gives a warm shit? It all looks and acts the same.

So dull and monotonous...especially considering Android has far more capability...at least on paper anyway.

Anyways all dull aluminum crud...not that youd even tell that much as we all armor them to protect the fragile pieces of shit.

Mind you we did used to have some modicum of variety...blackberry portrait keyboards and the far superior landscape sliders. Or the Sony Xperia play with a sliding gamepad (God we need another shot at this) or the 2 screen LG slider phone (pic related)

Yeah modern smartphones are the worst and most bland coockie cutter shit ever...and all of them catering to the lowest denominator of touchscreen simplicity despite being far more capable...

oh well parts cost money right? And slabs are cheap. And innovation also costs money.

Modern phones suck because of cheap ass manufacturers unwilling to take a risk.

...

Everything in there is pretty.

Everyone on Sup Forums uses Sup Forumsentoo remember to install that or gtfo
