  1. gave the old one to my mom, and getting a 128GB one... pretty solid little machine, also I can use GMS on it. Newer Redmi phone does not come with GMS and xiaomi actually blocked it in the OS.
  2. yeah, I know. I will look into it. I also might get a second hand note 8 pro I think..
  3. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15N5OFFslWnFkmjujR-Tz5abZodQA_-9xeq053Fc8uPI/edit?usp=sharing
  4. I will look into this, but right now I will have to focus on redmi... I'm sorry
  5. okay let me find out how much it cost here in china thank you! I see. What model is that ?
  6. Other than redmi, the only choice I have is OPPO?? right? for the similar price point..
  7. I do not play mobile games at all. I only care about whether the OS is stable, also, battery life. I am currently using a note8pro, which I am really happy with. I have been using it for like 2 years. Gave me no issue whatsoever. It had great battery life, and I flashed the original version of MIUI, and the OS had been super stable. Never gave me issue. So, I had my eyes on these 4 modles, which one should I choose?? Is it wise to wait for a while and see how the latest note 11 perform? So, the G88 is slower than G90T??? XiaoMi putting out newer phones with crappier specs?? LOL Do you guys have any other recommendations??
  8. I see. So what I am using right now , to simply put is to explicitly tells all of my apps to use SOCKS5 proxy when trying to connect to google etc , is that right?
  9. Before knowing about Shadowsocks(R), V2Ray, and Trojan protocols, I used ExpressVPN as my default application the bypass the GFW. After some research online, I found a VPN provider who provides servers that are using those protocals. And it is way cheaper than buying the subscription from ExpressVPN. In order to make it works on linux, I have to install this app https://github.com/Dr-Incognito/V2Ray-Desktop then import all of my server configs into it. Upon using it I found out that I have to explicitly set up the port number when it comes to HTTP and SOCKS5 ports. Why is that?? What's the logic behind it??? So right now all of my data is going through these 2 ports only or???
  10. yeah. It happened to a lot of us. This is just the perfect summary for everything I wanna say..
  11. LOL Also I dont really enjoy gaming that much must have something to do with all the things that are going on in my real life. I can't and won't have more time to play games on the go, and I am not fully settled into one dedicating job, and sometimes I don't have a set routine, nor do I have a normal work life balance, plus the fact that I have health issues that almost causing me trouble on a daily basis. I do have a short term goal, and I am going for it bit by bit. But it still feels like a long journey sometimes.
  12. I definitely had that playing one game for a few hours then close it and went back to leage of legends syndrome. LOL Used to be this way, until I find it was almost the same every time I log into this forum. Dont get me wrong, I learned so much stuff (pc buidling, programming) from this forum, but I just dont want to fantacy building a PC in my head again and again.
  13. you have 4-5 hours everyday to play video game? thats not bad at all.
  14. I do have goals aligned for myself in real life. And I am preparing for it, waiting for the opportunity to go for it. I think you nailed this one. Hmmm. I think social media is fine. I find browing reddit and chatting with people and getting things off my chest really relaxing. I think if you can actually sit still and just chill, that's awesome dude.
  15. yeah I was definitely surprised that I get a high doing daily day chores than gaming LOL Also I dont eat as much as I used to, went to buffet and wanted to have a blast just eat a ton end up realizing that I am kind of full after 30 minutes. LOL
  16. same here. sometimes I wanted to game, but ending up taking out cellphone and mindlessly scrolling through a bunch of stuff then fall asleep... yeah,,, me too. I went back to my home country after living overseas for a while. and... yeah. the whole thing was a struggle. holy shit. thats still a lot! I can play battlefiled 4 to my deathbed. too bad I live in Asia where you cant find a server that has a decent ping... also most of the servers dont have any people in it..... take care dude. you can always watch streams or youtube and just chill release an unfinished game money grab from the hype apologize profit??? oh wow. then you must have other form of entertainment then, when I was that age gaming was all I wanted and all I had LOL a few years ago stopped playing leage of legends for half a year, after that cant get into it anymore.. you have to play a certain amount of time just to have the same reflexes as you used to be... then theres many new champoin came out that i have to learn,,,, feels like too much work for me. recently I find Wolcen pretty enjoyable to be honest, yes the game is still buggy, but I can just zoom out and farm and grind new gears, then keep killing monsters.. I felt it was quite chilling just to grind out some gears for my character. Also I can check out new build on youtube and modify my old build as well. Really relaxing experience.
  17. lol. isn't it a business strat these days? put out semi broken / unfinished games brings in loads of money 1st apologize for it fixing the game later on profit?????
