Candysandwich99 reacted to AskTJ in Are factory resets still necessary on modern Android phones?
As your phone storage gets filled up and new applications are added, they are being opened with ram, meaning less ram to make your phone faster. I reset my phone on a monthly basis, for both privacy and speed.

I don't think there are any limitations to HDD capacity. I think the only thing you might run into is file system types having limitations, but this would just mean splitting the HDD into partitions.
You can't really buy a HDD which is "too big" to be used if you get what i mean.

Should be able to run any modern drive. There was a 2tb limit, but this is way newer than that. The limit currently is way over any drive can hold. Your probably going to be limited by 48bit lba currently which is 144pB, and your not reaching that anytime soon.
Just format the drive as gpt and put whatever data you ant.

Ehh, crunching some numbers, you're looking at about 108 hours and some change. Not insurmountable. I've encoded videos that took longer.

Because Ubisoft is shite and DRM is the work of the devil.

Candysandwich99 reacted to Theguywhobea in What do you wish you knew before delving into the PC world, that may have even made you feel stupid for not knowing?
When I was probably 13 (so 11 years ago) I had a pretty shit laptop and I really wanted to be able to play Counter Strike Source, so I bought what I think was an 8400GT from circuit city. I asked my Dad to put it in my laptop as I couldn't figure it out, so he brought it to the IT guy at his work who had to explain to him, and me, that you cannot put a desktop GPU into a laptop haha.

Most Mac users I know could get the same level of productivity on a Chromebook..
Productivity = (YouTube && Facebook && clicking news click bait)
Glad you didn't 1k+ for $250 worth of work.

When the sales guy who is trying to reach sales says something like "solid state hard drive" when trying to sell a laptop with pure SSD storage. ?
Poor “solid state drives” having their identities stolen due to naïve salesmen. ?

"Why didn't you just get a macbook?"

As a university student in california... this is all too common when laptops come up.

Candysandwich99 reacted to Armakar in Statements that trigger tech fans.
Title.
What are some tech-related things that people say that trigger you or other tech fans?
Personally, when someone says "memory" when they mean "storage" it makes me cringe. I once even had a phone-repair shop employee tell me " the ram is what gives your phone its speed".... I felt bad and didn't wan't to tell him how wrong he is so I just pretended like I had no idea about how computers work.
EDIT: Well, this thread blew up.. Apparently i'm not the only one who gets triggered at false statements.
