Good-bye?- Anandtech

Man look at all the old heads coming out of the wood work. Names I haven't seen in a long time!

Good-bye?- Anandtech

Saw this and had to log in. It’s been a long time since I posted, but I was a member from back when Anand first started the forums. Sad to see the site go, I remember when it was just a tiny site run just by Anand.

Only one getting worked up here is you. Just commenting on my experience with the phone.

iPhone 7

I came from a Note 7 to the iPhone 7 Plus (and before that the Note 5), and to me the iPhone 7 Plus screen looks great. It's not better than the Note 7, but to my eyes it's just as good. I honestly can't tell that the resolution is lower. Granted I'm not using the two phones side-by-side to...

Anyone else have problems charging micro USB phones?

It happened on my Note 5 and it turned out my USB port was filled with pocket lint. Try shining a light in there and see if there is lint. I dug it out with needle and then switched to a case with a port cover.

Amazon Prime Day - July 12

1.5 hours for a pot roast? Wow. I also like how quick/easy it can handle stuff like frozen chicken breasts. My biggest peeve about freezing chicken breast is it becomes a pain to thaw and then cook. If I can throw them straight in this and have something in 30-40 minutes that's great...

Amazon Prime Day - July 12

I don't want to turn this into the "Instant Pot" thread, but is this thing really that good? My wife and I constantly have the issue of "oh shit its 7pm and we didn't get anything for dinner" followed by "what do you want?", "I don't know what to do you want?" followed by our daughter not...

3 built-in cameras... view whats inside your fridge from your phone

Me right now: "No way I'd buy this. Just an absurd price!" Me when I'm at the grocery store making a hard decision about buying a new bottle of soy sauce when I'm 98% certain I bought one last week: "Motherfucker I should have bought that $6000 fridge with the camera so I didn't have to waste...

How many of us are cord cutters? What streaming sources do you use?

I like Vue, but I've had a few issues with it. My two biggest are repeating live TV and sync issue. So like when watching live TV sometimes it will just randomly replay a few seconds over again. And with the sync issues, on some channels the audio won't be in sync with the video. My last live...

I hate summer

For the shit my wife deals with on a daily basis I'd gladly take my 250ish days over her 180ish days. Most of the time I can stick my headphones on and code something or work on something else. Some corporate bs from time to time, but most of the time nothing major. Meanwhile she has to be "on"...

I hate summer

:awe: My wife is a teacher too. She's off starting tomorrow. Actually it's not too bad because usually my mother-in-law is taking care of our daughter, but during the summer my wife does and she likes to take little trips during the day while my mother-in-law doesn't. That means for a few...

Amazon Prime shipping now shows 4-5 days for me?

It is actually https://www.ups.com/media/news/en/ca/intl_lithium_battery_regulations.pdf I guess a battery charger with a battery doesn't qualify as being with equipment? EDIT: Wait that says international. Hell I don't know. Maybe UPS is using the same regulation for domestic too?
