yeah taobao shit is cheap but you have to use an agent @fat skeleton

2017-09-26 16:52:06 UTC  

which means you have to pay for two lots of shipping

2017-09-26 16:52:10 UTC  

first is usually a couple bucks at most

2017-09-26 16:52:24 UTC  

second is like a tenner depending on how heavy your shit is

2017-09-26 16:52:29 UTC  

oof

2017-09-26 16:52:30 UTC  

so buy a lot at one time

2017-09-26 16:52:43 UTC  

it still end up miles cheaper than elsewhere

2017-09-26 16:53:01 UTC  

i payed $9 shipping total for a like $60 order of a bunch of electronics shit

2017-09-26 16:53:12 UTC  

yeah you can't just get one thing, get all your shopping done in one big go

2017-09-26 16:53:18 UTC  

👍

2017-09-26 16:53:23 UTC  

check taobaoring or superbuy

2017-09-26 16:53:32 UTC  

those are the two agenst csg seems to use

2017-09-26 16:53:46 UTC  

or just look at the hueg spreadsheet cgl has

2017-09-26 16:59:37 UTC  

so my $1 microphone came in and the grille is fake

2017-09-26 16:59:44 UTC  

it's a real grille but it doesnt do anything functionally

2017-09-26 16:59:57 UTC  

and its also made out of metal which is the most suprising bit

2017-09-26 17:00:07 UTC  

I need a small device with a keyboard to carry around uni in a backpack and take notes on. Can a chinktop serve this need? Which one?

2017-09-26 17:00:41 UTC  

just carry around a keyboard and type notes onto your phone

2017-09-26 17:00:50 UTC  

Jesus Christ

2017-09-26 17:01:32 UTC  

I need to be able to show students slides as well

2017-09-26 17:02:03 UTC  

At a single table

2017-09-26 17:02:17 UTC  

you don't have a 6.4" phoen?

2017-09-26 17:02:18 UTC  

my dad owns a jumper ezbook pro 3 and it's very good

2017-09-26 17:02:35 UTC  

you could get a thinkpad x230 too

2017-09-26 17:03:28 UTC  

why buy two xiaomi airs when you can get one iphone x? xiaomi btfo

2017-09-26 17:04:17 UTC  

>he can't double fist two (2) phones

2017-09-26 17:04:29 UTC  

Brainlets get out

2017-09-26 17:05:15 UTC  

How's the battery life on them comp?

2017-09-26 17:05:36 UTC  

the jumper? really good, but it uses a pretty low powered cpu anyway

2017-09-26 17:06:17 UTC  

I'd recommend putting a chink SSD inside it, the standard eMMC storage is slow

2017-09-26 17:06:48 UTC  

but for a jumper price + chink ssd price you get a better laptop than most things new from local

2017-09-26 17:06:55 UTC  

It's moddable?

2017-09-26 17:07:37 UTC  

I would just buy used stinkpad if i were you

2017-09-26 17:08:04 UTC  

@PopeUrban there's a slot for an ssd by design, the chuwis are thermal moddable but jumpers don't need it

2017-09-26 17:08:14 UTC  

the chuwi 12.3 has a retina display though which is nice

2017-09-26 17:08:33 UTC  

depends on your budget tbh, if you want to go full wannabe macfag there's the xiaomi airs

2017-09-26 17:08:41 UTC  

or a thinkpad

2017-09-26 17:10:00 UTC  

the IPS 1080p screen on the jumper is really good, I'd say if all you're doing is sitting around shitposting it's worth it

2017-09-26 17:11:07 UTC  

if you like to dick around there's tons of ways to mod thinkpads

2017-09-26 17:26:21 UTC  

looks like hpg finally has a headphone buying guide
