I remember doing something similar in HS 20+ years ago.

Probably because "save the planet" and "we're pumping more oil than ever" don't go well together.

Scuse my ignorance, but why put 'won' in quotes? Did he not actually win?

So is it safe to assume this isn't going to be a free and fair vote?

I didn't completely leave behind reddit. I still view, but I only comment/post on lemmy.

lol@ this. My bet what is actually happening: cost cutting or future nitro feature.

I don't think this will happen. What they want is for PCs to be like phones, a closed system where you are pretty much locked into installing anything you want on your PC(and thus anything you buy as well) from their exclusive app store. The cloud thing just extra expense for no real benefit to them. However if there's an opportunity to push one drive you can be sure they will. And MS has been trying to move in this direction since windows 8.

"people who are struggling still need a burger"

and that right there is why they raised their prices.

it will be a banking experience where musk will get all of your banking data. I bet that's why he's so into it and the "do everything" super app approach.

you can overclock the panel to 180hz but it supports 165 without it.

edit: oh nevermind I see now, this is related to response time.

$15 off for new customers(worth a try) MPNW2X23A

 

Another monoprice monitor, even if it isn't the best $160 is a great price.

 

No backorders or preorders, 4200 in stock as of this post. Note that no heatsink comes with this CPU.

 

I'm not ready to upgrade yet but I'm just wondering how bad the 3090 memory issues are, and what can reasonably be done about it. I asked once before and the response was basically "there aren't really any good options to deal with it", but I have a hard time believing that some heatsinks wouldn't take care of the issue. So I guess, what are my options? Is the 3090 so bad that I should just avoid it?

 

Pretty awesome deal, see these go for more than that used and the hardwareswap discord folks usually ask 120-130 obo. Please be aware that no heatsink or retail box is included.

 

I deliberately warm up my soda if it is cold.

 

Seems like a good price for mITX case. MIR sucks but eh...

 

So I am working on upgrading my pc and looking at power supplies. I see that some of them support PCIE 5 power and some do not. So my question is, if I get a PSU that is on the old standard and I later buy a GPU that only has PCIE 5 power, is using an adapter to fit the old power supply to the new GPU a bad idea? Or is this generally something that would be OK assuming quality components?

 

I'm in US-GA and I cannot find denatured alcohol locally. WTF happened? I need something 100% alcohol for cleaning electronics.
