Every phone feels better with a case if you ask me :P

Because it's significantly less likely to break when dropped?

 

[Meganium]

^isn't that the point of phone cases? xD

also hnnggg. I'm about to put a laptop on layaway (to be picked up in December woo), and I'm struggling between three different laptops in three stores. And I can use my employee discount with these three. I'm so picky when it comes to laptop choosing. There's a 500 GB laptop with good memory (6 GB) that's a really good price but it runs on CELERON. blah. decisions.

Have you checked second hand stores? That's where I look for a lot of stuff like that

When it comes to iPhone chargers, I prefer quality over price, even though they do get a bit pricey. I bought an iPhone charger for my mom's iPhone from a secondhand store (lol 99 cent store), and it didn't last even two weeks.

I meant when a phone is held it feels much better in the hand. :P

Not all Celerons are made equal. What is the exact Celeron model? If it's a Haswell-based Celeron, it's more than good enough. That's just the thing with Intel CPUs - if it's based on the beefy architecture, you're set.

You might want to make a new thread about it, by the way.

Even better: they won't kill you.

Some cases can feel very tacky, though. I really prefer well-made cases that have a soft feeling, but not rubbery.

 

[Meganium]

Naw. I'm good. And I made my decision earlier this morning, going for this one.

The one I was talking about was a Celeron Dual Core, model N2830.

You know you are really bored if you start building your own image file format. It's really basic, doesn't even have any security messurements like CRC and compression, but it works {XD}

Whoa, that's great! Sometimes I wish I can make my own PC myself, ahaha. And usually I have to rely on someone else to upgrade my RAM in my PC back then, until someday they said that I can't upgrade it anymore (I think it must be because of DDR RAM, that my computer is using, becoming rare). Wow, my computer is so old now.

 

[Starry Windy]

That, plus you may have maxed it out. Certain motherboards can only use so much ram.

But whoa, DDR? That's old stuff. This laptop uses DDR2, and my good laptop uses DDR3.

It's all hella expensive though in the end. It's definitely worth the initial investment though, as you make your machines more reliable.

Back then I didn't know if my PC used DDR RAM when I got my PC at the first time (it was around 2004-2006, I believe), until I checked out the motherboards info several years later. But, it's good that my PC still survives for several years now :) albeit with minor issues

I think I found an addiction to tumblr today, since I've had it opened all day in a tab and am always refreshing it. :P

 

[Meganium]

Tumblr will always be addicting no matter how many times I log on to it. I even forgot about twitter when I recently got back to it.

I'm addicted to Vine xD I can scroll and laugh for hours, no kidding.

 

[Tsutarja]

Vine is pretty funny. Although I don't have a Vine account myself, nor do I actively use it, I've seen some pretty hilarious vines on Youtube.

 

[moon]

I'm following some fun viners and I've gathered enough people now to get at least a few new vines to have fun at every day. I don't upload anything myself though.

 

[Meganium]

How do people actually vine? Like, they take snippets of video and squish them to last 6 seconds? I could never understand that.

 

[moon]

It works like it works on Instagram. You touch the screen to record, lift your finger to pause and then you can touch again to record another part. I'm not sure how people put music or audio clips on top of it though... Maybe there's an addon or premium version or just some button I haven't found yet :p

Here's one of my favorite viners ^^

 

[Tsutarja]

I've seen people use Vine to make 6-second stop motion animations. That right there is pure creativity if you ask me. :P

 

[Starry Windy]

One of my friends was sharing some of the Vine videos on a certain chatroom (I forgot what does the image looks like, maybe it's about elevators and stuffs), and I found that it was quite interesting, even though I didn't know much about Vine, and how it becomes popular back then. And it's quite unique, for sure.

 

[Legendary Silke]

I just have Vine installed doing not much on my phone. It's like...I can't find something to do with it, but I keep it anyway...

Same with Instagram.

 

[Tsutarja]

Most apps on my phone go untouched, especially facebook and twitter. Not sure why though.

 

[Frequency]

I don't use vine all like that, but some of the guys who upload stuff there are hilarious as hell. Like that King Bach guy.

Tumblr is neat too, but I barely use it as compared to FB and Twitter.
