This is the Dex Pad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgAkH2jP2yUrl] This is the Note 9 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeozWvxBgYU&t=165s

It's pushed as one of the major, unique features of the phone. I was wondering if anyone had actual experience with it. The reviews I've been over mention it, but I haven't found anyone that actually did it. I could see using the Bluetooth on the phone to hook up my Logitech keyboard, complete...

Kind of wonder if anyone has hooked up the Note 9 to a monitor, and used it that way, as a keyboard and mouse.... If I had a choice, I would go with the Note 9, but, when I needed it, the s9 Plus was the best available...

Stops raining, and now we have a freeze warning for tonight...

https://aqicn.org/map/california/ We were at 296 in Oakland in the peak of the smoke. 150 is very dangerous.

Bought the s9 Plus. Like the larger screen, but would rather have had the Notes 6.3" Same as the Samsung Mega everyone used to make fun of. I use Package Disabler Pro, along with using developers mode to speed it up a bit, and disable the Bixby bloatware, etc. I bought it for the speed, 6 gigs...

https://www.sfgate.com/california-wildfires/article/Why-is-it-called-Camp-Fire-name-Butte-County-destr-13380824.php So fires are named after the road they start on...

Due to the high growth rates in the trees last year, coupled with a long drought that has put trees root systems at risk, you have a lot of top heavy trees likely to fall onto power lines. PG&E probably is at fault for the start of this fire, and they probably came up with the name, since PG&E...

https://abcnews.go.com/US/body-cam-video-captures-deputy-thinks-final-moments/story?id=59504904 Most destructive fire in state history. At the same time, due to dry conditions, and tons of growth from the most rain in one year in recorded history, we had a number of other fires, one about 25...

Now we have really heavy rain. . Two feet deep on highway 580 just off the bridge tonight. Closed the right lane, unless 4wd or suv. Did not require snorkels, except your air intake better be on the high side.

DD: WHAT are you building?

For two weeks, we have had air so bad going outside was dangerous to your health. Consistently over 150 on the air quality health scale, with a high of 296 in our area, if you went outside, you started feeling sick, coughing, screwed up your lungs. Worst since 1965 in my experience, worst ever...

Happy Thanksgiving, or Turkey Day!

Also have this one: https://groomandstyle.com/art-of-shaving/best-philips-electric-shavers/norelco-sensotouch-3d-review/ Works well, cuts close, but not as close as Feathers and a double edge...

Mugen used to offer double sized batteries, with a new back, for a lot of models. Now a lot fewer. P.O.

Chrome browser, and Chrome on a Chromebook, both need an equalizer, third party, installed. Equalizer for Chrome is the extension I'm using, and it works. It makes the cheap Sony headphones useable, with more volume then stock limitations.

I ended up buying this shaver: https://shop.panasonic.com/personal-care/mens-shavers-and-grooming/mens-shavers/ES-RT51-S.html Very good shave, easy to clean, uses parts that have been around a long time. Waterproof as well. Did find out something interesting about plastic bodied shavers...

Both Best Buy and Fry's will price match. Fry's dropped the speakers down to best buys 269 from 299. Subwoofer cable from Best Buy was listed at 35 dollars. Price matched to Amazon for 20 dollars.

I was considering buying a new version of the Klipsch Pro Media 2.1's. They've been getting rave reviews for 20 years. The Bluetooth models use a dongle that is synced to only that set of speakers, and that's the only way to access them. Plug the USB dongle in, and they work. NOT what I had in...

Sennheisers came in. A considerable improvement from the Sony. Loud enough, and pretty well balanced. Sounds REALLY good with music using onboard sound and Media Player Classic or VLC. Movies are much better as well, though not perfect. Using a converter cable to get rid of the microphone...

DB: Thanks for the info. I bought the Verizon deal because it put me on their plan for work. They do have the best network in San Francisco, and that was where I was working. 1000.00 phone, for a small down, and 30 a month no interest? Kind of a no brainer. 9S plus has internal storage...

Thanks for the link. I just ordered Sennheiser Urbanite XL Over-Ear Headphones - Black Sold by: Amazon.com Services, Inc $69.95 I had a premium set of Sennheiser over ear headphones from 1975 until 1985. They got lost in the Hawaii move. Hoping the above will do the job for a reasonable...

I've got two pairs of the Motorola S305. I bought my first ones about 20 years ago, and the battery is amazing, still going strong. Covers fell off the ears, so bought another pair. GREAT value. Not overly loud, but adequate most of the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAnuk9rjZNM

Been wondering what the onboard sound of my computer is capable of driving. In other words, what is the point of wasting money on headphones when the sound quality off the motherboard onboard sound is too poor for the headphones to do much with? Just ordered these: Sennheiser Urbanite XL...

Went with Xfinity and their Verizon networked 45 dollar unlimited plan. Only problem is they limit the phones to .6 mbps when used as a hotspot. I get to watch a lot of stuff on my phone, instead of my TV. Still, for a bit down, and 30 a month, the Samsung 9s Plus is a great phone, and worked...

Thanks for the heads up.Looking for a larger screen, 17.3" , 1080p. Mainly used to stream video from Xfinity X1 DVR. Oddly, the laptop works, but the desktop doesn't on the wifi hotspot near this house. Might be the wifi capability on the desktop, or Xfinity might have blocked the desktop.

This is the model I ended up with, after going through 5 of them. Two USB C ports to charge through, not a POJ proprietary tiny bayonet, into a flimsy housing. https://www.cnet.com/products/acer-chromebook-15-2017/review/

Apparently uses a small form factor M2,with no active cooling. Tried to find an upgrade, but for the model I have, no joy. Resigned to staying with 32 gig, with the OS and stuff taking about half. Additional storage is on a 64 gig card, that I don't ever use, so I'm putting that back in my...

300. dollars for service every 5 years. Watch was in an estate. Guy never wore it. Wore a fake Rolex, when he had a real one. Almost perfect condition, but did replace the crown, with an original issue from Seiko.

Yes. Says SSD, not very well described in any documentation I've found...

Learning a Chromebook. Good stuff. Learned to disable the pad while typing with keystrokes. Learning more and more as I go.... Pretty amazing how fast this the Chromebook is with a SSD and an anemic processor.

Waiting for a price drop... Hasn't happened yet...

Plans changed. Staying with X4.

Seems someone at GoogleFi listened. They put a cap on data charges, limiting my bill to 62.00 a month. After 15 gigs, it slows down, ala Tmobile. The maximum GoogleFi will now charge for is 6 GB of data, or 60.00. The first bill is weird, since the entire bill is 62.00. See if that continues in...

Talk about being behind just found out that there were two more Hobbit movies and 2013-14 I haven't seen Black Panther Marvel movies I'm always interested in

Just saw the new Jedi Star Wars movie not bad I enjoyed it except for Carrie Fisher died

Currently using this: Acer - 15.6" Touch-Screen Chromebook - Intel Pentium - 4GB Memory - 32GB EMMC Flash Memory - Pure Silver I like the price, 299. the screen, it's fast, and I'm slowly but surely turning control of my life, and my typing over to Google. Plays Xfinity video, pretty much does...

That much data moving does the GPU become the bottleneck? There doesn't seem to be a standard way of stating what the interface is. there's a bunch of them that have pcie listed as the interface and others are pcie nvme. Others just listed as SSD with no interface listed.

Has anyone run speed test on the SSD pcie nvme hard drives on any of the laptops?

Which current laptops offer the new NVME SSD interface? Lenovo Y 920 for one...

Any progress on getting this into desktops or laptops

Thanks B thanks the XPS screen at 13in is too small for these old eyes.Lenovo looks good features except for no optical drive and pricing to be right about right.

So, it finally died. Keyboard is gone, hard drive, though replaceable, is clicking, and starts sometimes. GPU is too slow to play Xfinity streaming service, etc. Not worth fixing, or trying to upgrade. So: Been looking at Panasonics, but, they are again almost all 1000 dollars for what I'm...

Went with Moto Android One, X4. 325.00, 150.00 credit from google for returning Nexus 5X. 175.00 for an enterprise phone. Only bad is 7.1.1 no Oreo yet. Staying with Fi. Support is worth the cost.
