They massively discounted and since I'm staying in student halls for the time being I thought that maybe my mail would be opened by the guardian, pellets I can justify more easily than bags of powder, first and last time I buy them, usually I just buy crystal eph or powder eph for snorting

Oh god, not the great iOS v Android debate. We will be here for weeks.


Android is best

I've have the latest gayphone and the latest Samsung (s5) and I do prefer the S5 over the gayphone. I do hate having to buy apps over both the platforms, though I do prefer the android platform. Plus, the screen real estate is hard to match..

Android is open source niceness, your Apples bitch when you own one.

Most of it is under a "Sharing is Not Stealing" Apache licence, which says you can distribute the Source Code if you distribute the compiled binaries, but you don't have to. Contrast this with the "Not Sharing is Stealing" GPL, the licence applied to the Linux kernel, which says you must distribute the Source Code if you distribute the compiled binaries.

The Apache and BSD-like licences allow the likes of Google to comply with the letter of the licence, but not the spirit of the licence. The only thing stopping you from distributing the Source Code is Google not giving it to you in the first place -- and having the right to do that. Even after the copyright expires and the work enters the Public Domain, there's no guarantee of your grown-up great-grandchildren finding a copy of the Source Code to use freely as they think fit.

If you own an Android tablet, you're no less Google's b!+(h than you would be Apple's if you owned an iPad.
 
I dunno, I have a Galaxy S5 and an iPad so I feel suitably qualified to comment on both platforms. Android, to me, feels slow, laggy and very buggy. iOS is smooth, responsive and just works when it's meant to work. It just seems way more polished.

You're basing that on the fact that android, be it HTC, Samsung et al, have never seriously invested in making a tablet of their own. Several companies make tablets and slap the android OS on it. None have truly made it their own, as Apple has. We may see something on the horizon.
 
I have played over 110,000 hands at microstakes and have turned $10 into $300.

If you are a winning player at that level you're an incredibly good player.

I seriously doubt it. You're letting go of nickels and dimes. (as the term goes)

Up the stakes and the %'s drops off due to the amount involved.

Gladly play you though. I only play a couple of times a month. What site do you use?

Real money, I play cash microstakes, currently 5/10 cent level.

Assuming you mean 5 and 10 cents are the small and big blinds respectively, that would make for many pots under $1. Great fun, if you've the willpower to keep the stakes that low. What's the style of play like? Is it looser than the high-stakes games, with players tending to go further as they stand to lose less, or is it just as aggressive?

I'm not sure I could trust myself to play poker with real money .....
 
I use pokerstars. I'm not a very good heads up player, i only play 6 max. I'll play you for fun though if you want (v small stakes)

To be a winning player (in the long run) at the levels you play, you have to be a very good player. Every time you move up a stake the game gets harder, more pros and less beginners/pissed up idiots chucking their money away. How many hands have you played at that stake? Are you winning overall?

Its looser, but not as aggressive. You'll encounter many more loose-passive types at microstakes compared to higherstakes. These types of players are easy to play against as they'll call with any piece of the flop, so when you hit a big hand you should bet big for value. If you don't hit a big hand you fold. That's how you make your money in microstakes. Keep it simple, nothing too fancy. ABC poker. This style of play does take a lot of willpower and patience, but it works at those levels.

I started off at $0.01/0.02, beat that then moved up to 0.02/0.05, beat that and now I'm playing 0.05/0.10. I use strict bankroll management where I only move up to the next stake when I have 20 full buy ins for that level. If I start to lose and drop to a 15 buy in bankroll I move back down. As soon as I hit $500 I'm going to take a shot at 0.10/0.25.
