Galaxy s6 Wireless charger, Works like a dream through the otterbox case

Why didnt you go for a cheap one off ebay?

 

I have two wireless chargers, one for my nexus 7 and one for my nexus 5. The one for my nexus 7 is built into my 3D printed dock. Ironically it charges faster than USB due to a weird glitch with the ROM/Kernel

A $40 active 5m USB 3.0 extension cable so as to be able to run the intel realsense f200 as a chest-mounted facial motion capture device.

40 dollars...

PowerBook G4.

 

gpHjGXu.jpg

 

I reeeeeeeeeeeally didn't like Mac OS X, so I installed Ubuntu MATE on it after an entire night of trial and error. I have everything but wireless working on it now (as a replacement for the built-in wireless, I'm using an 802.11g PC Card; I'll probably upgrade it to an 802.11n card later).

 

Specs:

1.5GHz PowerPC G4 (7450)

512MB PC2700 DDR RAM (to be upgraded to 2GB next week)

80GB IDE hard drive

Matshita CD-RW drive

ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 64MB

15.2" 1280x854 display

Backlit Apple keyboard

Ubuntu MATE 15.10 PowerPC

 

It's a bit finicky and required me to append "radeon.agpmode=-1" to the yaboot configuration and for me to have it plugged in to get it to boot without crashing, but other than that it works great-ish. Certainly better than OS X 10.5.8 did, anyway :P

The recent purchase of a pair of GTX Titan 6GB caused a long unfelt itch, the need for an upgrade! But I didn't wanna throw good cash for a new i7 6700K/Z170 build, I'm waiting for AMD Zen to see what it brings to the table. So, I chose the next best alternative by going for a used i7 4770K/Z87 combo, got the CPU and an Asrock Z87 Extreme6 bundle for a decent price (at least it's decent here), along with a 4TB Seagate Hybrid HDD, a Deepcool Maelstrom AIO, a pair of EK Vader fans (replacing the stock Maelstrom's ones), a copy of 64bit Win7 Pro, and a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO. I'll be using my Thermaltake Level10 GT case, will be gutting my other rig's Enermax Maxrevo 1500W PSU, as well as repurposing a spare Toshiba 3TB HDD. Bought FC Primal (given some expansion pack codes) to christen the rig when I have it up and running......

I know......but when I get the itch to build a new system, I'd then say to myself, "Why not?" Anyway, just got back from a sorta mega PC sale and bought a few more stuff......yes, one more keyboard to add to the others that I already have. Yes, fully aware that it has Kailh switch, but it's RGB and so purdy......liked the mouse as well, so I snagged it as well.

So I previously bought a pack of 3 cheapo LED torches for about a tenner. They were crap.

 

So I just bought one with amazing reviews and user pictures for £7.

 

I. Just. Dont. Even. Only. £7. For. This. Mega. Ultra. Ima. Firin. Mah. Laza. Super. Power. Light. Damage. Plus. Over. 9000....

 

 

Makes upgrading a breeze. And it only has a single LED, my previous crap ones had loads of rubbish LEDs.

We see eye to eye on this, heck, I have five active PC's in my dinky room, my main rig (i7 3960X), 2nd rig (i7 4770K), 3rd rig (FX8350), 4th rig (Phenom II X6 T1100), 5th rig (C2Q X9650) and an AMD AM2 X2 HTPC.....that makes 6 actually.

 

A couple of stuff got delivered to me today, been waiting for them for a while now. First off, an Emotiva Control Freak Balanced which I need to hook up my Oppo HA-1 to my ESI nEAR06 speakers in Balanced mode, using Windows audio control isn't fun at all, I prefer to have a physical knob (like the Control Freak) to control the volume of my speakers.

Next up is a NuForce uDAC-3 from MD, been waiting for this since last month when the drop closed....

A shot of it with a typical thumbdrive, do note how small it is....

So my cable modem went total kaputt. My isp mailed one for me,  but it won't be arriving until next week so I'll have to MacGyver my interwebs to get through the weekend.  I'll be using my tablet as a WiFi hotspot and I bought a WiFi card for my computer.

After a quick check of websites of local stores, it was pretty much only pcie available. I could've bought a usb dongle, but I would've had to cough up double the price.

 

So, yeah, it's no steal, but it'll get the job done.

 

Also the taxation over here is ridiculous, 24% on pretty much everything, excluding food and books, so.

I like that my Godlike Gaming has a 600 ohm amplifier built in with top quality SNR input and outputs.

 

It sounds noticeably better and clearer than my X Fi Titanium HD did.
