    jiyeon got a reaction from Eschew in Sanity Check on Buying a Used Laptop   
    Totally forgot to mention it's an Asus ZenBook 3 UX390. It's basically got the body of the 2016 12" MacBook, it's my ideal laptop. I found it relatively cheap used locally so that was my reasoning for finding it locally. Otherwise, I would be looking at listings in the USA or Eastern Europe, where for those prices and postage costs, I might as well just keep my current laptop, an Asus ZenBook UX410 which costs me £529 brand new.
     
    I did heed warnings to myself, I know full well it's a 2016-era laptop, so worst case scenario, it's been used for 2-3 years, and so the battery will likely need replacing. But for my usage, where I only need a laptop for web browsing, I don't need top of the line silicon, and would be okay with going for second-rate performance for the convenience of a laptop that I can see myself carrying around comfortably, compared to my 1.4kg behemoth I currently use.

    jiyeon reacted to sinkesnnj in YouTube Removes Upload Email Notifications after over a decade   
    Tbh, move makes sense to me, setting mobile/desktop as default. Only thing I would disagree is completely removing an option to have email notifications for people that still want it. I lean towards the younger audience and have clicked or opened email notifications grand total of 0 times, it's just spam to me... I assume, based on my behaviour, that a significant portion of view time is now towards mobile devices, why would I open one app(email about video upload) just to be redirected to the other one or go in and manually search for video based on that email? Also, generating these notifications is easier on bandwidth, speed and number of jobs required for processing them compared to emails...

    jiyeon got a reaction from Eschew in Subscription mania: Twitter exploring the usage of subscriptions   
    Absolutely hate that idea. I don't like the idea of making Twitter a paid service all of a sudden. I mainly use Twitter nowadays to keep up with sports, tech companies, the occasional celebrity, YouTuber, a whole variety of people, and I'm not sure I'd mind leaving if I'd had to pay for certain features.
     
    I hate that this sound accurate to what a sub model would look like.

    jiyeon got a reaction from Eschew in Rocket League Will Soon be Free to Play   
    I have literally bought the game thrice - once on PlayStation 4, once on Steam, and lastly on Nintendo Switch - and I think the total billing that I've given Psyonix (and sadly Epic Games in the last purchase) comes to around £40, if even that.
     
    I do enjoy the game though, I still play it from time to time on my Switch when I have time to kill and feel like playing car football. I've only ever touched competitive once, playing standard solos and gaining Bronze III rank, unfortunately my experience is people dropping out of games when they're 1-0 down. I don't play competitive anymore so I don't mind that, but I'd be concerned once the game turns free-to-play about what I experienced.

    If you like Browns, I'm almost certain you're going to like Zeal's Zealios V2 switches. They put the Browns' tactile bump to shame. It's like a road bump on steroids.
     
    Absolutely not. O-rings in my experience barely dampen any sound/bottom-out pressure, if anything, they make the bottom-out feel mushy and the sound really hollow. Would advise against O-rings unless you find you have hearing-sensitive roommates/parents.
     
    Not sure there's anything more to add as Kevin and Eschew have advised on pretty much all your queries for the most part.

    jiyeon got a reaction from Eschew in OnePlus Nord Series Announced   
    I'd be intrigued to find out the longevity of the Nord in terms of software updates. It seems on paper like a phone that would match OnePlus' flagships on software support due to most of the components being inherited from previous OnePlus models.
