/csg/ - Chink Shit General

is it normal for the official mixza store on Ali to take long to ship your stuff? I ordered a 256GB shark at the end of january and the first shipment tracking update was coincidentally today, the first time I checked since making the order.

>he doesn't know

the chink new year? yeah I know but I didn't think it would delay shipments this much

It was the i10 TWS for a while

Fuck, I've been chinked haven't I? I'm also pretty afraid if it blows up while charging or just randomly in my pocket or in my face. It's better if I just go back to the original battery, right?

Just ordered 4GB of chink brand RAM for my Thinkpad for 15 bucks.

why chinks are so stupid?
if they stacked properly the first time they can just lift it all with a forklift later.

>for a while
Yeah I mean are they still or?

Apple is technically chink-shit... but not really chink-priced.

They started to ship packages like 3 or 4 days ago, I know because they shipped mine too.
Know to wait like a month to get it ):

Do earpods leak a lot of sound? I've never really heard one in a quit-ish room before.
Currently I'm looking into getting some chink iems, but there are a lot of them and I don't know how to narrow down a selection. I'm also a little concerned about putting anything into my ear canals since I've got a lot of earwax.

need a chinkshit mouse for regular office use, any recommendations lads?

G102 is a good mouse, feels smooth as hell. You can turn the rgb off. I bought the g203 for 40 bucks and it was still worth it. G203 is the same mouse as 102, but sold in other regions and 102 is cheaper. Just some capatalism scam.

Trn v80, tin t2, tin t3, all good choices.

I'm looking for (micro)SD card reader and tiny, wired mouse for my Pocophone which uses USB-C. Any ideas?

Thanks mate, going to order the G102

>conveniently ignores that i mentioned the pocophone
t. faggot who has no point but loves the sound of his own opinions and doesn't read other comments

most mid-range iems have grates

Really disappointment about the quality of csg lately.

Is it over for chink shit?

What brand?

Attached: Mixza_128gb.jpg (640x640, 176K)

Sorry, I wasn't being clear. I'm not worried about the earwax affecting the iem, I'm sure they're easy enough to clean if you do it regularely. I'm more worried about earwax getting shoved back and becoming blockages or what have you.

Kllsire.

Why not get a used samsung, it's probably a safer bet.

Is this a real product?

Yes, there's pepe shit all over aliexpress.

I wish the VE monk guys would make some cheapo iems too. I've been using the monk pretty much every night since I got them several years ago, so they've been good value for me.

I got my chinese fleshlight and its like the size of my dick and smells bad. thanks a lot chinks

So perfect):

>smok novo pods cost $5 ea irl
Where can I buy these on chink sites without having to min purchase 50 of them? I can purchase 10-25 or so.

Quit or make self rolled cigarettes without additives.

Yeah you got chinked, shit on them and they'll give you money back

Will eBay give me a hard time if I have unpaid items? (I won a bid but I realized I could't use the product as I wanted so I just didn't pay)

I opened a dispute because the package didn't arrive in time, but apparently it's in the post office. If I close the dispute now, will I be able to open another one in case there is something wrong with my package? The current dispute will close automatically tomorrow.

Be thankful. If it was usable youd give yourself dick cancer

Who cares? If it arrives outside the expected date interval they gave you, you are entitled to the refund in my eyes.

Unless you get one of the less popular phones and never get security patches.

Confessions thread? I'm using an Android phone that got last patched in 2015. I don't do banking on it.

Please my dear chink friends, ship my mi pad, you already shipped everything else, thanks, love u

Any anons here make custom USB cables? Looking to buy some cable wire, paracord, and solder off of Ali for a few projects. Any recommendations? 16 or 18 Awg wire? Will Chink solder kill me?

Attached: 1496116388608.jpg (563x1000, 216K)

Lead free is where it's at, go for the shit that's meant to be soldered by hand or die trying. I've got some micro USB connectors that have these tiny pins half a mm from each other, don't make that mistake.

Assuming you're referring to solder, I'm not sure how to identify the proper solder. I've been struggling to find good information on this subject in the first place. Seems making custom USB cables is a niche activity, unfortunately. I just don't want to order supplies and, in over a month when it has all arrived, learn I needed more or other items.

I have a Samsung tablet that's on android 4.2.2 but I only use it for porn and youtube (before newpipe stopped supporting android

You won't really find bootleg solder, it's just an alloy. Buy some from digikey or wherever if you're worried.

don't cheap out too much on your solder, good quality stuff from a name brand will be easier to work with

>Seems making custom USB cables is a niche activity
Probably because you need to make properly twisted and shielded cables if you want the thing to actually work. Even USB2.0 runs at 480Mbps, making a cable for that isn't quite the same as making a power cable or a line-level audio cable or some shit. I imagine making an USB cable is more involved than it sounds, especially if you want to go beyond 2.0. 3.1 type-C cables even have chips in them IIRC, to inform the host of the cable's capabilities (power handling, speed and such).

Shark isn't bad, it's just that for a few more burgers you get better overall performance.

They do not. I miss interesting design/art on technology. Pic related

So long as you have a good fit on the tips you'll be fine. Unless you have open back iems.

>I imagine making an USB cable is more involved than it sounds

From what I've seen, it's just soldering four pins of one connector to four pins of another, some twisting, and tinning. If you want to make it more complete, sliding it into something like paracord, and heat-shrinking the ends. You could do it quick and dirty like this guy:
youtube.com/watch?v=s8LCCy9Dq1I (some of his other vids show his cables plugged in, and capable of data transfer).
Or, a bit cleaner like this guy, who used a prebuilt kit: youtube.com/watch?v=H6bhYkXuivg

My only real problem at this point is figuring out what gauge of cable to use, and if said cable should have any particular properties. I've heard different claims all over the place, but then again, I think most people are making molex and ribbon cables.

Imagine the shitshow a diy rolled cable would be. This is why we have robots.

It might work for short distances, but the spec for USB cables (even 2.0) calls for twisted data pairs and a shielded cable.

>pvc

?

Pvc is trash insulation, natural rubber is where it's at. Silicone is ok but a bit too soft.

I don't think I've seen a single USB cable made of rubber.

> Pvc is trash insulation
Wat. It's a great material for cable insulation. Rubber has nothing on it overall.

How do you guys cope with the waiting? Order more?

PVC has longevity issues, it goes hard and shitty after enough years, though it's hardly a pressing issue. More importantly, natural (vulcanised) rubber is heat-proof, significantly stronger, more abrasion and chemical resistant, and more elastic/less ductile and so doesn't plastically extend like old PVC cables can. Most quality appliances I have use a vulcanised rubber cable, though it's an expensive process to vulcanise rubber as a cable sheath hence why it's a rarity for USB cables.

Silicone can have any softness you want depending on the mixing ratio.

it's its tendancy to plastically deform that I'm more concerned about, but with a different mix that probably isn't as much of an issue

Rubber is only more abrasion resistent, PVC is more heat-proof, has more tensile strength, more chemical resistance overall (of course you match chemical resistances to the application, in a select few instances rubber is better), more tolerant to pulling after it has been cut a bit, and some of these here:
blog.muellerelectric.com/types-of-wire-insulation

Rubber can't match PVC overall, PVC is a much better default.

Vulcanised rubber doesn't melt at all, you can rub your soldering iron (set to 400) on that shit all day, can't say that about PVC hookup wire for sure. The cross-linking should be pretty damn chemical resistant, and I can't exactly speak from experience, but something with a higher melting temp in the same category of solid (polymer/covalent) will typically require more activation energy to start reacting.

oh oh
the usb cable that came with my led map is rubber
when i picked it up the first time i was like "huh, really?"
i have no idea why, the bulb is only like 3W

i meant to say lamp

> Vulcanised rubber doesn't melt at all
Can't find any references to that, are you sure you aren't talking about some kind of mixture or a silicone elastomer or something?

Natural rubber is, as far as I know, not particularly terribly great at anything, vulcanized or not the organic impurities and what not are an issue.

The wikipedia articles for "vulcanisation" and "thermoset polymer" should guide you in the right direction.

Requesting a review from any user who's bought a laser rangefinder, I kinda want one to play with.

theoretically If you order a couple things every week you'll have a never ending supply of things
alternatively theres am*zon

My shark died after only a few months of use. Is this rare? Should I just get a regular msd?

mine's still going after about 2 years of actual use (bought it 3 years ago)

no

with samsung you have to get them from a reputable source. with mixza you know what you're getting.

What did you use it for?

also fakes are more common than you might think. to this day there are online stores that sell counterfeit apple lightning cables without retail packaging without disclosing that they're made by a third party.

Let me guess, it was 128gb. Those die quickly..

You need to calibrate your phone's battery memory.

Google how to do it and if the battery is still fucking up, dispute it and refund.

It's our job to keep ordering things that are funny and interesting and useful and post the results here.

all these autismos and kids sperging over earphones will hopefully go away as long as you fight back with better posts.

Change only happens if you engage in it user

a pack of 500 q-tips is like 2 dollars at the supermarket.

clean out your disgusting ears, loser.

Get a new phone you third-world shitter. No excuse for having a phone that old.

if it's just a failed HDD, it was pretty easy to fix my Gen 1

>bought a Microsoft Intellimouse Pro off of joybuy
>check tracking details

am i going to be chinked?

1. go to doc
2. tell him you want to clean out your ears
3. he'll bring out a large metal syringe-spray and flush your ears with warm water
4. do this every 6 months

just forget about them

Mine going strong since 2016

>cleaning your ears manually

this makes it build more ear wax

good question
if you were using your phone as a torrent/seedbox or you put this in a dashcam despite these cards not being endurance cards then you're going to kill all the sectors in a few months
