How many Ti variants are they gonna make

honestly at this rate

How many Ti variants are they gonna make
too many this generation 
they have to actually compete for once

we'll see, i see prices dropping quicker than usual

Hahaha
Probably all sweaty down there too
God I’ve been slacking I use to workout religiously now I barely workout

Anytime someone tells me they work 2 part time jobs yet are broke I already know they are full of shit
Yeah you work 2 jobs but 20 hours at each

God why doesn’t the new tundra offer a step bumper for the bed
It’s so beyond stupid lol
You have a lifted off road truck with no easy way to get into the bed
GENIUS
I’m gonna assume it will offer some retractable steps
modern iris
toyota number 1
umbral moss
You have a lifted off road truck with no easy way to get into the bed
because it's for posturing and not using
deep sapphire
They still won’t talk about the fuel economy but I suspect it to be 22/23
umbral moss
if it was designed to be used it wouldn't come with XXXTREME OFFROADAN stickers all over it
deep sapphire
Even tall people would be annoyed by it
Every other truck has some step bumper or something to get into the bed easily
deep sapphire
It’s just common sense
sly elk
you can only tell the dealer 'please get me this'
umbral moss
all these dumbass "off-road" or "trail rated" stickers are the pickup truck version of JDM vtec stickers
they don't mean anything and occasionally make the car actively less useful
sly elk
hehe
deep sapphire
Ngl I have no reason for having one either I mostly just want the hybrid and I love the orange
The hybrid has almost 600 lbs ft of torque
Ford has a similar hybrid system too
umbral moss
electric motors have stupid amounts of torque at idle
deep sapphire
It’s really impressive
umbral moss
the maverick gets a really high efficiency in the hybrid version
like 40mpg
bretty gud
deep sapphire
I find it ugly as fuck and it’s not body on frame but can’t deny the efficiency and affordability of it
umbral moss
it's just an escape with the hatch cut off
but honestly that's more than enough pickup truck for most people
deep sapphire
Agreed
umbral moss
the average person buying an F150 is either buying it because they have little dick energy or they have no smaller options
deep sapphire
If you aren’t towing or need the ride height it’s a great vehicle
umbral moss
the people who actually need an F150 or F250 get it from their jobs
deep sapphire
I still think EVs in cold climates is a poor choice unless you don’t drive a lot
umbral moss
I think the opposite would be true, if you aren't driving your EV a lot it'll fuck up the battery
deep sapphire
I really wanted the R1T but I know my range would just suck and I live in an apartment
umbral moss
because the battery starts to degrade from the low temperature
also, why wouldn't you just use the stupid-ass block heater to keep the battery pack warm
you already have plugs for that shit in your frigid hellscape
deep sapphire
Most EVs don’t offer a heat pump and use a lot of energy to heat up the cab
You lose up to 30 percent range regardless
umbral moss
not if you keep the pack at a reasonable temperature
deep sapphire
You aren’t wrong entirely but they’ve done testing on most EVs and have all come to the same conclusion even with long range testing
But if you charge at home
And don’t drive far
EVs are great
umbral moss
I mean, how often does someone drive 150 miles to their job
modest moss
Hank why have you put a deposit on a truck you know nothing about?
deep sapphire
Sadly I drive 50 miles a day, I would need to charge every 4-5 days and be at the realms of poorly maintained charging stations
umbral moss
even ford is like "yeah, we designed a decent range into the lightning but we fully expect you to charge it while you're at the job site"
sly elk
yea seriously
deep sapphire
I’m sure I’ll love the truck regardless
umbral moss
yeah, this is the new hotness in automotive space
sly elk
I don't think the lightning's range is a problem o_O
umbral moss
these low "placeholder" tickets
sly elk
the big catch with evs is: you have to be able to charge at home
umbral moss
it's just kickstarter for cars
deep sapphire
Fun!
sly elk
if you can
modest moss
smh
deep sapphire
Right
sly elk
if you can charge at home, EVs are awesome
umbral moss
honestly, I would kickstart the fuck out of nissan putting the leaf's limp-ass EV drivetrain into a 280z
sly elk
I learned last night on reddit, that some cities will pay for the cost of installing a charger
deep sapphire
Electric motors are fantastic, the energy source isn’t
sly elk
dude had one installed in his apartment's garage for free
from apersonal value sorta view, that's fantastic
and yea, not for everyone haha
umbral moss
Electric motors are fantastic, the energy source isn’t
the solution, of course, is to replace batteries with a small nuclear reactor
sly elk
the other thing is, where I live the weather is really mild
so EVs are a bit of a no brainer
deep sapphire
GREAT SCOTT
umbral moss
not that I spent a year researching nuclear reactor design specifically for this purpose or anything
deep sapphire
I miss the Chevy volt
sly elk
like i'd bet at least 80% of the people who live where I do
an EV would fit their lifestyle perfectly
deep sapphire
That was a good idea
umbral moss
the hybrid thingy?
sly elk
i agree but there's one downside
a nasty downside unfortunately
PHEVs are super complicated
umbral moss
you could make some super high efficiency turbine charging mechanism that charges your battery or runs the EV like an alternator setup
umbral moss
but your issue is always 100% fuel burnup
sly elk
I'm not sure I'd be ok with the 4xe
umbral moss
you're still going to need to turn some liquid hydrocarbon into heat
deep sapphire
The funny thing is gasoline is actually a suburb energy
It’s just engines waste most of it
umbral moss
I mean, if you don't care about exhaust temperatures you can use a turbine
sly elk
and argh even in that case
I'd love to own a 4xe lol
I am the perfect use case for that vehicle
umbral moss
but, uh, running a turbine that lean is a recipe for exhaust temps in the "can melt the asphalt and the car behind you" range
sly elk
i could plug it in every night and never need gas ever again
umbral moss
umbral moss
that's why they install a separate electrical service and outlet for your EV
for $3000
umbral moss
who knows what shitty wiring was used in your old-ass house that you've never updated since it was made in 1943
sly elk
see that might be ok
umbral moss
seeing half your wires are already under-gauged by two sizes before you find out they're also aluminum
jaunty light
Just wrap some copper around the nearest power line then terminate it into your tesla connector
dreamy chasm
Gotta love underspec wiring
jaunty light
umbral moss
personally, I'm a big fan of aluminum wiring, it's great wiring up a slow-fuse arson
dreamy chasm
Our shit power company didn't do precautionary measures and now 80% of our fucking city is out of power due to the recent typhoon
sly elk
texas?
umbral moss
I think the wiring on the newer panel is aluminum
unless it was done in the 80s, not likely
dreamy chasm
Asia
dreamy chasm
I've seen it happen in tx, yeah
sly elk
different kinda problem
dreamy chasm
It's stupid shit that caused issues too
umbral moss
aluminum wiring was tried as a cost-cutting measure and immediately stopped when people figured out that it was a fire hazard
dreamy chasm
Shit like not trimming down trees
sly elk
nah
oooooold power stuff
because when they go to install new stuff the expensive neighborhoods say no
and then texas "eh we'll just use this cheap stuff because that only happens once every 100 years"
dreamy chasm
Isn't most housing there wood
umbral moss
in the US? yeah
sly elk
and then the once in every 100 years thing happens every year
dreamy chasm
That makes firehazards even worse lol
sly elk
well
umbral moss
softwood is mad common in the US so pretty much everything is stick framed
dreamy chasm
💀
dreamy chasm
Fair
sly elk
you want something lightweight and flexible
dreamy chasm
Concepts just foreign to me ig
sly elk
tbh i'd want one of those oldschool japanese houses
dreamy chasm
We use cement over here, our houses tend to be 2 stories tall max though
sly elk
where they have a bonkers strong frame but then like, paper walls
sly elk
oh most houses here are 1 or 2 floors
except for new ones
new ones are like 3+
sometimes 4
because they make them really small, like 1-2 rooms per floor
umbral moss
that's really common in heavy urban environments
dreamy chasm
Ah
umbral moss
all those row houses that are very narrow but go up three floors because they're stacked on top of each other
so the lots are tiny but you have something approaching a usable living space
umbral moss
mostly downsides, honestly
sly elk
small yards mean little to no yard maintenance
umbral moss
there's no fuckin room for anything, like parking a car
sly elk
but it also means closer to the neighbors
and some people buy these things when they reall shouldn't
sly elk
i lived in a neighborhood like that when I was in college
umbral moss
driving in those urban spaces is miserable because the entrances are so fuckin narrow and there are always cars parked right up on top of your driveway
sly elk
this dude rented the house across from us
and he had an suv, a boat, a truck, and a toy hauler trailer
HE TOOK ALL THE PARKING UP
ALL OF IT
EVERYONE HATED HIS ASS
deep sapphire
I feel bad for you guys cost of living just seems so ridiculous
umbral moss
Elizabeth Holmes got convicted
imagine thinking you could run a defense of "my boyfriend asked me to fleece investors for years but I was the CEO who actively participated in all the fraud"
sly elk
but outside of that, it was ok
deep sapphire
imagine thinking you could run a defense of "my boyfriend asked me to fleece inv...
yeah that was mega cringe lol
sly elk
the thing is if you buy an older house here, the yards are still small
they're bigger, sure
but also, since the houses are old, you're gonna have at least one or two weekends a month where somebody's tearing up their house to install a new roof
or a new wall
or redo their bathroom
and for some reason when they do it, they produce a ton of asbestos dust and blow it into your yard
dreamy chasm
I forgot who Liz was until I looked her name up
deep sapphire
all the share holders that lost money, all the people who had serious medical conditions trusting theranos technology only to find out it was a fraud and essentially sealed their death sentence if they had aggressive cancer
fuck her she can rot in hell
dreamy chasm
Man, she got all those investors good 
deep sapphire
sly elk
I thought she just conned a bunch of companies into buying equipment that didn't work
I didn't realize they actually had people using this stuff
as a substitute to something else
dreamy chasm
She conned people into funding rnd too
deep sapphire
yeah I dont really care so much about the money but the multiple lies she made about her company's technology. how she conned tons of health organizations to use technology that didnt work, how she treated her engineering staff like dogs forcing them to work 100 hour weeks, telling her it wasnt possible over and over and being silenced
all the people who had cancer trusting her imaging technology probably paid thousands of dollars for testing, having to wait when time is a factor if you survive
umbral moss
just isnt a good person
but she made a lot of money, therefore she must be good and moral and just
dreamy chasm
Has that ever been an actual argument
umbral moss
yes
people will absolutely die on that hill defending elon musk and jeff bezos
two noted trashbags who deserve nothing but scorn
deep sapphire
atleast jeff bezos delivered something, I cant say the same for elon or liz
sure tesla makes things
but they sure make a lot of bullshit up
umbral moss
but the memes hank, he's just like us
deep sapphire
"look I changed my pfp to JC denton"
umbral moss
I mean, the whole "my non-functioning vaporware killed someone but it's OK because it's a beta" is kind of elon's thing too
deep sapphire
the one that gets me is how he took radar out of the vehicles for its self driving technology because "humans get by with 2 eyes so can our cars"
dreamy chasm
Elon did spearhead the populization of EVs, can't say he's made anything else that's worth noting
deep sapphire
and I think they've regressed in how well auto pilot works
dreamy chasm
Autopilot is a mess that shouldn't exist
deep sapphire
oh I agree and I mean I will give him some credit for that
umbral moss
he spent too much time on wsb and bought mvis at their word
dreamy chasm
the one that gets me is how he took radar out of the vehicles for its self drivi...
Wtf was this decision about anyway
deep sapphire
but just all the shady shit he does too
I have no idea
Radar and Lidar are just so much better than cameras lol
umbral moss
lidar modules are expensive and he didn't want to buy them anymore
he got a better deal on cameras and decided it was good enough
dreamy chasm
Cost cutting so they can avoid putting a 10 dollar radar module in their car 
deep sapphire
but its okay we charged you 20,000 dollars or w/e it was for a service that doesnt even work
umbral moss
I must stay home and shitpost about dogecoin
deep sapphire
while the competition has arguably better self driving technology and it comes standard with higher trims
dreamy chasm
I remember when doge was just a shitpost
umbral moss
"good enough", when the technology can be life and death
it's a beta, my guy, therefore you can literally kill people through ineptitude and negligence with no legal liability
🎺
dreamy chasm
deep sapphire
like I legit dont get it
I remember in like
2013 or something
watching the Model S or P90D w/e it was called back then
and watching how well the auto pilot system worked
you're telling me 10 years later its somehow worse now?
dreamy chasm
Imagine just how much more accurate the tech would get if they could integrate both lidar and cameras
deep sapphire
pretty much
umbral moss
and watching how well the auto pilot system worked
knowing elon the demo was being remote controlled off-stage
dreamy chasm
Pretty sure they could charge more and it'd still sell too
deep sapphire
lmao
umbral moss
never forget "full" self driving was supposed to be a finished product in 2018
dreamy chasm
Christ
deep sapphire
Elon is also full of shit about their EV trucks, not the cybertruck but large commercial trucks used for transport
he claimed some ridiculous mileage
deep sapphire
like I fuckin really doubt that when someone is hauling 50,000 pounds of shit and somehow can get 800 miles of range
when its been shown that EV range is horrible when towing any weight
umbral moss
you could probably extend the life of your battery quite a bit on a long-haul design where you aren't traveling in constant stop and go
deep sapphire
which sure, so does gas and diesel but atleast you can fill up and be back on the road quickly
umbral moss
with regenerative braking schemes
all your "idle" axles can just be passively putting power back into the circuit but I bet elon did the napkin math and his electrical engineering group was like "no pls stop"
deep sapphire
lmao
I think local delivery vans and what not EV makes a lot of sense
but long haul trucking
no
dreamy chasm
Don't they basically only stop to sleep
umbral moss
there's a company that's already prototyping autonomous EV delivery trucks for some short-distance hauling
deep sapphire
yeah pretty much
umbral moss
like 15 miles
basically going from point to point for a single company between two sites
deep sapphire
by law they can only drive what is it, 12 hours a day or something
dreamy chasm
Ah
umbral moss
imagine if those big haulers were semi-autonomous and you didn't physically need a goon inside the cab
what if they recruited all those dorks who play delivery truck simulator
deep sapphire
so if they have to transport cargo from california to the east coast thats a long ass trip, no EV is gonna do that without pissing off the driver
dreamy chasm
what if they recruited all those dorks who play delivery truck simulator
The world would end tbh
Have you seen how people drive in that sim
modest moss
HGV drivers in the UK are limited to 10hrs/day I think
umbral moss
Have you seen how people drive in that sim
I've seen how people drive in real life and it's arguably safer
dreamy chasm
I guess
deep sapphire
ah alright, it might be that here too I dont remember
my dad was a trucker but he didnt go that far
most of it was in state
I cant imagine how hard it would be to do long haul trucking
you're never home
driving for hours on end would get so old
basically nothing healthy to eat, living off fast food
deep sapphire
I've seen how people drive in real life and it's arguably safer
true but most (yes debatable) trucks have a lot of experience and getting a CDL is obviously harder so they are held to a higher standard
however making them autonomous and just having someone in the seat for liability would probably be much more beneficial
sly elk
I'm sure he's going to finish his truck before rivian, too
Rivian is already selling trucks though?
like, they're already shipping?
deep sapphire
yeah but its pretty low volume
they only have a single plant
probably wont be until 2024 if things go well that they will be able to ramp up production
deep sapphire
I think they said they have 2 more factories being built
sly elk
is their truck has so many doohickeys
deep sapphire
the R1T looks great yeah
sly elk
and gadgets and stuff
it seems like a super super ambitious first vehicle to mass produce
sly elk
yuea I have mixed feelings about how it looks?
deep sapphire
its fast, it has insane off road capabilities, looks decent, has a really nice interior
sly elk
I think it looks cool
but it picked up a few common modern car styling traits I find annoying
but I bet it'll sell really well because of that haha
deep sapphire
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3d33AjzA-8 this has to be good
sly elk
like the general shape of the roof with that lip spoiler
it looks like a truck designed by someone that designs japanese crossovers
deep sapphire
I always found it weird that 3DS Max and Maya are 2 different programs when both can basically do the same thing lol
sly elk
but outside of that, I love it
it doesn't look angry, it doesn't look like SUPER MACHO MAN MACHINE
sly elk
modest moss
is this an EV?
sly elk
it looks completely sensible
deep sapphire
yeah
modest moss
buy it Hank
deep sapphire
I thought about it but
sly elk
it's like a spiritual successor of the oldschool tacomas
modest moss
wait no
deep sapphire
its 70,000 dollars or more
sly elk
like I could see lots of people who have rangers/tacomas buying that
modest moss
fuck that

sly elk
I think it looks ok lol

Don't you pump in half that in repairs for your current car

it grows on you, its a little weird but yeah

Don't you pump in half that in repairs for your current car

sly elk
we're talking about trucks
dreamy chasm
deep sapphire
no!
deep sapphire
the gladiator is the dumbest vehicle sold on the market
modest moss
Hank link the shit you ordered
deep sapphire
it sucks as a truck, it has horrible fuel economy, it sucks as a jeep
sly elk
the gladiator is one of the only trucks i'd buy
because I HATE THE WAY TRUCKS LOOK
I hate truck styling
but you're not wrong
dreamy chasm
Buying a Honda civic and putting a ridiculous amount of obnoxious mods on it as soon as I move to the US

sly elk
and
the toyota badge signifies to women that you're not dumb and won't spend all your money on repairs
lol jk
dreamy chasm
I heard Toyota stuff was relatively easy to get repairs for
deep sapphire
we'll see it is a brand new truck
dreamy chasm
The older Toyota cars, anyway
deep sapphire
so it'll probably have some dumb things go wrong on it but its under warranty
yeah they are
I owned a 2000 camry that thing ran like a dream
deep sapphire
see the thing with toyota is its not so much that its reliable in that it'll just start and go like pretty much any car
its reliable because you can get away with out maintaining it
dreamy chasm
I see
sly elk
hank is right
dreamy chasm
Sounds perfect for me, tbh
deep sapphire
havent changed your oil in 10,000 miles? no problem it'll be fine!
sly elk
american cars are reliable if you keep up on maintenance and replace wear items
sly elk
but if you are buying a car for somebody who doesn't know cars need oil changes
get a toyota
deep sapphire
toyota also likes to test things in the wild for a long time, they've always been one of the last makers to introduce features everyone else had for years
which sucks if you buy a new car every 3 years or something but for the average joe
who just wants a trusty steed
thats a good thing
dreamy chasm
I'd be fine with a car from 10 years ago if it'd run fine, yeah
sly elk
oh so what you do
is buy a used corolla
manual, no power anything
don't look at the prices of new ones
deep sapphire
just avoid the 2006 to 2010 toyotas with the 2.2 inline 4
they had god awful oil burning issues
dreamy chasm
sly elk
trhis way
you pay $25,000 for a used corolla private party
probably from an old chinese dude that used it to uber people for 3 years
when you could've had a new one for $20k
dreamy chasm
Oh god, I remember hearing about nobody there knowing how to drive manual
sly elk
BUT TOYOTA LAST FOREVER
sly elk
dude I fucking saw it happen several times
deep sapphire
https://www.motorbiscuit.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/rust2.jpg also toyota used shitty steel on their trucks for awhile and it took them awhile to issue a recall
modest moss
Hank get a proper truck
sly elk
"oh it's ok"
modest moss
sly elk
"TOYOTAS LAST FOREVER"
deep sapphire
I dunno about you but this is pretty inexcusable
deep sapphire
nice lorry
sly elk
so
I HATE TOYOTA
almost specifically because of their smug reputation of lasting forever and being the only smart choice
deep sapphire
but you own a Jeep
modest moss
that's a truck here
dreamy chasm
I don't need to compensate for anything, so I'm probably not getting any trucks in the far future.
sly elk
i'd rather drive a 10 year old land rover
modest moss
that's from a British Truck Racing Association race
sly elk
yea but they don't have that smug asshole reputation
deep sapphire
I kinda like how european trucks are designed
sly elk
it's much worse sadly
deep sapphire
seems easier to see shit ahead
modest moss
I might have been there actually
sly elk
a certain group of people kinda took over jeeps a while back
like if you go back 20 years
deep sapphire

Or, I'll just buy a motorbike and buy groceries one bag at a time

if you had a jeep you might have guys ask you out
now if you have a jeep they'll invite yo to the next trump rally
deep sapphire
wow rude
dreamy chasm
now if you have a jeep they'll invite yo to the next trump rally
Oof
deep sapphire
I'd ask her out if she drove a corolla
sly elk
ok I exaggerated
deep sapphire
but only if it has a CD player
sly elk
what really happens is occasionally you park somewhere
and someone approaches you all excited
and asks where you've gone off roading
and they talk about some awesome trail you've just GOTTA go on
which makes me feel hella guilty because i've never gone off road
xD
modest moss
imagine owning a jeep and NOT going off road
dreamy chasm
Does in car bluray exist
modest moss
shame

I don't think I'd ever find offroading enjoyable

Discord is a great app, I just don't see how it's sustainable
Unless big companies start paying fees to integrate it
sly elk
it's not 😄

why do you think they wanted to go NFT route?
sly elk
I tried to get a job at discord once
modest moss
pretty sure I've seen and forgotten that yeah
sly elk
they gave me a 'homework assignment' and I gave them the results as an invitation to a private git repo
... they couldn't figure out how to get into the git repo so they rejected me
deep sapphire
lmao this movie is hilarious
sly elk
and I decided if they couldn't figure that out, I didn't wanna work for them anyway
modest moss
you should have just emailed them a pic of Herald's Gaiters

They probably have enough applicants that they don't want any hoops to jump through to see results

I bet discord has that open office culture
I'd hate that so much if I was a coder

you'd use linux over windows?

but fuck windows

it's fine for using on my toy computer at home

I dunno if this is bait and I had to use CLI in ubuntu server at work

I'm a basic stupid gamer egirl, I can't use anything other than windows

Linux is the most unfriendly garbage in existence
but once you get it working
then its okay
dreamy chasm
Linus tested it and talked about how annoying it was to get some stuff working, when that stuff would take 5 mins to get working on windows
I'm just not up for that
sly elk
like if you work at an org that uses windows for everything
sly elk
and the programming team is only a small number of employees relative to the rest of the company
getting anything done is a PAIN. IN . THE. ASS
my favorite group policy restriction was my windows using coworkers couldn't adjust their laptop mic volume
apparently that requires admin on their laptops lol
sly elk
yea for personal stuff, I don't get annoyed
modest moss
I think I've lost my motivation to play XIV
sly elk
and to MS' credit, they've done a lot to make windows more livable
dreamy chasm
Everything I care about just works
sly elk
adding openssh, WSL, that better git support
deep sapphire
There were times I just flat out reinstalled the OS because of configurations not working right
If you make a mistake in Linux Atleast in CLI it’s just brutal
Sometimes it just takes forever to trace the issue and it’ll be something stupid like a missing character
I mean you’re a programmer you know this
deep sapphire
One time I made a bash script in notepad++ making sure Linux unicode was on
I transferred the file over and tried to run it
sly elk
my favorite thing in xfce is when it decides that you've added a new monitor
so ya know what
deep sapphire
Constant problems
sly elk
we'll just make all your monitors arrange in 1 straight line
deep sapphire
I spent hours trying to figure out why it wasn’t working
The problem was it was still in windows formatting
Fuck Linux
deep sapphire
sly elk
the only OS that doesn't matter is windows
how many cars or phones run windows?
how many game consol.....
sigh
deep sapphire
Look I hate windows too but I hate Linux even more
I mean fuck sakes just trying to install a driver is a nightmare alone
Linux makes you do 10 steps for something that should take 3
But the reason Linux is wildly used in redundant applications is because that
sly elk
it goes easier if you stick with hardware that is supported in the kernel
deep sapphire
Or just don’t make me deal with dumb hardware configuration pairing issues like it’s 2006
sly elk
that's how you end up with things like the old precision 7 series that would crash lol
deep sapphire
And because windows had a massive market share there is usually an easy fix
In Linux because there are 5 billion distros
You have to get lucky
I’m sorry but I can’t see eye to eye with you on this
Linux is annoying to use
Sometimes something being open source isn’t always a good thing because everyone wants to change the wheel
Which is probably why Ubuntu/Debian is nice in that regard
sly elk
well you see
I've decided to fork this program
because I found out the creator eats avocado toast
and I think avocados are bad
deep sapphire
You explained Linux
“NO THIS DISTRO SUCKS USE MINT”
And people wonder why native software development is bad
sly elk
or you do it the MS way
we introduced this new thing! it's great!
but we still left the old one in because
actually ya know what just use the old one
umbral moss
more like
we introduced a new thing that doesn't make any sense and doesn't work the way anyone has ever used our software ever, but we're pretty sure you'll like it
wait, you don't like it? guess we'll go back to windows XP

but we still left the old one in because
Also accurate
The new settings menu is so bad

oi can any appropriately sized CMOS battery cell be applicable as a replacement as long as it matches the specs of the one currently installed
or do I need to get one that the mobo specifically supports

I’m getting crashes that cause full shutdowns and the codes seem to be a CMOS checksum error; the damn thing is abt five years old so I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s starting to go

welp windows 11 killed itself (have a non bootable system on my hands)
verbal dune
do you have a bootdisk or USB?
paper tusk
no it's not any of my systems
yeah it has win 10 on it (the usb recovery stick)
i suspect the offending user just pulled power cable without shutting down and it shit itself
she's of course not telling me that but i know she would do something stupid like that
deep sapphire
A CMOS battery shouldn’t cause any crashes it just stores saved entries and your date and time
So that’s weird
paper tusk
that or the hard drive in it shit itself (there's a second drive i can attempt to recover/install to)

That being said they are very common you could go to a grocery store or drug store and buy some

only thing weird about dualbooting linux is
why is linux overriding the wrong daylight saving time
or, is it windows
or did i configure it wrong
cause every time i boot up windows after using linux, the hour gets clocked back
sly elk
I mean
wide hill
and windows has that "use automatic time" but doesn't automatically update itself on boot
sly elk
powermacs often didn't use cr2032
they used that weird 0.5 AAA battery
"it's a chevy ridgeline"
paper tusk
sounds like a good time to get an ssd
I pulled the drive to mount on my main/game station and files were readable so assuming it's user error (attempting to boot into recovery environment)

Not surprising. They were already having rolling blackouts for various energy screwups and that was before they started pushing the "electric only" mantra.
