Since I received my OnePlus a few weeks ago, I have been looking out for other OnePlus out in the wild. Here in NYC, if you look around the subway, you can see virtually everything.

Today I was at Rattle and Hum and a dude sat next to me and plopped his OnePlus on the bar. "What phone is that?" pretty sure of the answer but not confident. I could tell in a moment that my suspicions were confirmed when his answer involved some stuttering and a preamble, something I have noticed that I do when am asked the question about this device. My first OPO sighting. He was equally surprised to have met another OPO user. It was also a cool experience because we knew nothing about each other but he

What are some borough neighborhoods that are cheap by New York standards, but offer a reasonable blend of safety, convenience, and space?

Edit: Ordered everything, had to step down to 2tb drives instead of 3tb to fit the budget with the nicer motherboard and RED drives (instead of Green). Disappointing but budgets, man.

Thanks for the advice, I know I evaded some pitfalls because of this thread.

Hello! I am about to dip my feet into this world of otaku storage server. I have a lot of photos and files that I want to back up and I want to house photos from my immediate family in a place that we can rely on. With that in mind, I have put together this build. While I have built comps, I haven't built anything like this before. The plan is to run Raidz2. I would really appreciate some feedback from the pros around here.

I installed apache on my MacBook Air and pointed it to my media directory. I opened up the video in my local chrome instance through the apache server and not as a file, and used the IP of my local machine (http://10.0.1.6/Mad.Men.S06E11.HDTV.x264-2HD.mp4) to make sure the file/server worked and played. Then I dropped that url into this nifty thing with the HTML5 setting, and chose my device.

That's it. This works really well since my MacBook Air can't handle the WebRTC/transcoding well at all, and this is decoding the video right on the Chromecast at native resolution. Streaming some of my GoPro footage

Hey! I feel a little left out in the cold and would love some help!

Thank you!

Hello, I was just wondering if anyone knew a hack that prevented the system buttons (back, menu, home, multitasking) from rotating along with the screen. I have done a lot of searching for this one, but while I am sure the answer is out there, I can't seem to find it. It's a tricky one to search for, because any related search terms inevitably bring up completely different issues. I appreciate any insight.

I have always wondered what volume output level I should use when hooking an audio player or computer (MacBook) as source to an amplifier. I have always set the volume at around 2/3rds. My EE friend said that you are better off setting your device at the maximum and changing the volume on the amplifier. Does anyone know what it should be set at? Thanks.

Hello, newbie question here. I am looking for a used turntable to replace the one I am currently using. I am seeing some technics mk2 turntables on craigslist, but a lot of them come in pairs. I have a friend who also wants a high end turntable, so we could split them up easily enough. I am concerned that they are coming in pairs because they have been used in DJ setups. Does a high end, direct drive turntable incur significant wear from DJ use, should I be worried?

Thanks

In need of a new project, I decided to build the Elekit TU-879S tube amplifier http://tubedepot.com/diy-ek-tu-879s.html

I am a novice and was hoping that people with experience could offer me some suggestions for matching speakers. I am looking for something which offers good value, as I can always upgrade later.

These BIC America DV62si bookshelf speakers look like they might be a good fit, would these work with the low power output of the amplifier?

I would also appreciate any practical advice people could offer.

Thanks

My girlfriend and I both have babyfaces and look younger than we are (24/25). As a result, we feel like service experiences at restaurants and other walks of life are constantly sub par. At restaurants, we often get forgotten, have items missing, or almost ignored. Granted, we are in New York, but it's a bit ridiculous. We're also really polite so maybe that's working against us. By comparison, when I go out with my male friends we always seem to get treated a lot better.
