Year end festivities, What are you buying?

[IntoxicatedPuma]

Yes, at least with my company. I might have gotten some criticism at work about my lack of anger management....

 

[Ceros_X]

In my company it is a plus lol.

It's "Year beginning" now but, just got bonus check so I bought a new phone. I previously had a Xiaomi Mi5 but always got annoyed with the software on it, and finally got angry at work one day and bent it into a clamshell phone. I just ordered a Umi Super phone, so hopefully I don't get a lemon with network/wifi issues! I was thinking to wait for the new Nokia's but I guess they wont go on the market here anytime soon. Next I will be ordering some PC parts for personal use and for testing.....

I do hope that the Umi Super works out for you.

the mi5 is not a well built phone i dropped it once, barely, and the frame bent quite a bit on the corner. Bending it was shockingly easy (and shockingly created sparks everywhere) and also shocked my coworkers who i was angry at. Now they think I am the big angry foreigner.

Yes, because if you don't think, act, be like us, you are like them. This is despite such things exists inside of the country as well. Another reason to break down borders and lose our egos.

Not quite sure what you mean, but me getting angry about coworkers behaviors isn't about a US vs China attitude, because usually it's not the Chinese workers that get me riled up. It's usually a urban vs rural mentality and thought on work/way of doing things. Maybe it's also a bit of the Millenial attitude towards work and my conservative way of thinking.

My apologies for assuming as such.

I have no intention in angering anyone. I'll apologise to them if that happens.

Which case or will we see this in a build log?

Assuming it doesn't get smashed in the mail, I'll post a build log soon (8-10 days probably).

I will give you a hint: there is only about 1 build with pictures that I could find, it's been available since 2011, and I'll be able to use almost all the parts of Deployment Box. 7.27L should be the final size...

Nah I don't get angry very easily, mostly it's work related stuff when people don't do their job properly or try to push their work onto others. Usually I try not to get angry at people, which is why I break my phones often, i take my anger out on them

I also ordered a case and plan to submit a review to this site - but I think it needs a Noctua 40mm fan

 

[GuilleAcoustic]

I have a tendancy to throw objects, especially phones, at wall to release anger .... I so understand the feeling

Yes please! More content is always great.

 

[IntoxicatedPuma]

A small taste of the product for you, see if you like the goods.

 

[jeshikat]

Wow, is that aluminum? Or just plastic made to look like aluminum?

 

[IntoxicatedPuma]

aluminum i believe - almost positive. we'll see in a couple days!

 

[jeshikat]

If it's actually aluminum that'd be pretty impressive.

 

[GuilleAcoustic]

Would look awesome with leather cover and old books all around it.

 

[IntoxicatedPuma]

their marketing team must agree with you

 

[Ceros_X]

Should be interesting! My new case isn't nearly as sexy lol.
