I wanna ask will the 40 series laptop have a price drop when the 50 series laptop comes??

[vapid wharf]

No

[hybrid heart]

No change??

[vapid smelt]

we already have 50 series laptops

[hybrid heart]

Like there is still time for 50 series laptops to come in the market where I live

So just asking if the price changes because of 50 series when they release in the market

[vapid wharf]

Where

[hybrid heart]

India

[vapid wharf]

Ok the price won't be moving that much

Because if it was bought through an authorized reseller, they're buying it with their own pocket and they need to make some profit

Yo guys can anyone recommend me a decent usb c dock for my laptop to plug in 2 monitors (1440p and 1080p) and mouse / kb plus maybe my usb c receiver for the headset ?

[lament crystal]

In just under a week, I'll have enough money for all my pc parts except the GPU

It's exciting

[onyx dew]

you buying locally or online

[lament crystal]

Online

Nowhere local to me sells pc parts

At least, not that I'm aware of

[onyx dew]

dont forget to include shipping and tax

!!

[lament crystal]

I know, pc part picker has all that sorted out

Also I live in the UK where sales tax is included in the price

[onyx dew]

oh very nice

[lament crystal]

As for shipping a lot of it is Amazon or free shipping

[dreamy thorn]

I thought I had a masterplan for improving my car by installing a lotus elise engine (since turbocharging non turbo engines is illegal here)
but I made a grave miscalculation
the lotus engine with a supercharger won't fit
💀

[vapid wharf]

What the fuck is that 1984 rule

[dreamy thorn]

well it's technically not illegal, but one of the tests is 3500€ PER TRY to make it legal, and that's one of the tests
so it's basically as good as illegal

[vapid wharf]

Lmao European laws

[dreamy thorn]

fr

can't even have a kit car
and my old mr2 will be banned in 2028

[vapid wharf]

If it was like decat then its logical but making an engine cleaner by turboing it?

[vapid wharf]

Is this Germany

[dreamy thorn]

spain

[vapid wharf]

Explains everything.

Spain hates cars anyway. Fucking pedestrian and cyclists.

Its ironic because turbocharging a car makes it run more efficient and quieter

[dreamy thorn]

well i don't mind most things, but the classic car bans are pure madness

specially since my mr2 is like euro 6 spec because it was made for cali ULEV regulations
it's got 3 catalytic converters 😭

[vapid wharf]

Lmao

Just register it in Germany or Switzerland

If I were you I’d register it in Monaco just because.

Then they probably going to ban registering cars abroad

[dreamy thorn]

that doesn't change the bans, the bans are per year of manufacture, doesn't matter where the car is registered

foreign cars have to comply too

[vapid wharf]

Great way to kill tourism from other schengen

[dreamy thorn]

to be fair tourists are only itnerested in touristslop places like BCN which you don't need a car in

But yeah. Im in Taipei and I am considering buying a personal transport. Good thing we don’t have those stupid bans, yet.

Fuck I hate pedestrians and cyclists. Speaking as a pedestrian and a cyclist.

guys

i have to put my pc on the floor

how do i reduce the risk of accidentally kicking it

and will the airflow be worse in some way

because my floor is like a carpet

[latent delta]

Yes

[civic fox]

put it on a board

[latent delta]

If your intake fans are on the bottom

Ye Board

Or stack a bunch of books

[distant iron]

that sounds a lil sketch

my intake fans r on bottom yes

[civic fox]

just put a board under it, or put it on a actual stand/desk.

[distant iron]

well I cant put it on a desk

because of multiple reasons

so my only option is floor

[latent delta]

There are things designed for this very purpose I think

[distant iron]

?\

[latent delta]

Wait I can’t send pic here check tech chat

[short rock]

s

[viral owl]

Vienna can of sausages

take it or leave it

jokes aside I think it's a good build

minus out the peripherals for just the pc price tho

[viscid elm]

By not kicking it

[viscid elm]

Put some planks under it or something as the psu will have a harder time

[viral owl]

don't you have space on your table?

carpet is not where a pc belongs

and I'm only saying that to sound smart but im not some random guy told me this

[short rock]

just for airflow.

if it's blocked, you get worse airflow, which means your components heat up easier and it's harder to get the heat out.

[viscid elm]

Psu

Only thing

[short rock]

if you have fans on the bottom.

[viscid elm]

Those are just dumb

[short rock]

better safe than sorry

[viscid elm]

And do not do much

As long as he has fans front it will be more then fine

[short rock]

I swear we only perform in FP and quali

[quaint salmon]

does anyone here know of any good, free preferably, backup systems?

like backup software that lets you back up to an external disc

[viscid elm]

Uuhhh

I use urbackup on my nas and computers

[austere shale]

Enjoy

[cinder swallow]

Depends on your OS

[quaint salmon]

I'm on windows 11

[quaint salmon]

and Ur backup allows you to backup system images and stuff?

[cinder swallow]

Personally on Windows I love SyncBackPro. It's not free, but you can use it fully for 30 days before it demands you buy a license.

[viscid elm]

yup

[quaint salmon]

this is something for my grandpa so idk if he'll have the knowhow to deal with this

id rather just something I can quickly set up and teCh him how to use

[cinder swallow]

Well, with a license, SyncBackPro supports scheduled backups

So he may not have to do anything

[quaint salmon]

I see

I'll do some more research into that, thank you guys 🙂

[dreamy otter]

I use Veeam Agent Backups

It backups my whole OS image to my NAS automatically for free

it also generates an ISO you can store which is a windows recovery environment with network access to restore the OS

https://www.veeam.com/products/free/microsoft-windows.html

[quaint salmon]

this looks good, will it inundate me with popups? I installed AOMEI and it gave me popups over popups

[dreamy otter]

Nope.

You can schedule backups but it’s kinda limited in terms of options for that unless you spring for the pro version. Easy to workaround though using Windows Task Scheduler to start a backup 🤣

[quaint salmon]

I'm just a bit wary of backup software like this watching windows destruction videos when I was younger 😭😭

[dreamy otter]

I’ve deployed it on 2 of my PCs, works great

at first it does a full image backup, then you can set it to do incremental backups after

[quaint salmon]

I'll check out veeam then, thank you 🙂 how would I do the task scheduler thig?

[dreamy otter]

Shoot me a DM whenever you get it up and running and I can send you what I did, not at my computer right now

It can do backups daily by default and some other options

I wanted mine to do it hourly like macOS Time Machine

[quaint salmon]

awesome, much appreciated 😊

[quaint salmon]

sorry real quick, do I install backup and replication or the full agent?

[dreamy otter]

You just want Veeam Agent im pretty sure

their product lineup is a bit confusing haha

[frail dirge]

[quaint salmon]

awesome thank you

[somber pecan]

What budget mechanical keyboard would y'all recommend under $75 70% or 75%

[hoary zodiac]

75%

keep the f row

[somber pecan]

People say 75% is a less common keyboard

Why I'm asking for budget recommendations

[hoary zodiac]

75 percent is very common in mechanical keyboards

[somber pecan]

Any under $75 youd recommend

[hoary zodiac]

i have the leobog hi75

i got the barebones kit and added akko branded tactile switches and use generic key cap set form ali

[somber pecan]

Forgot about leobog looking for something with a creamy sound/feel

[hoary zodiac]

my board sounds very nice stock

Its very easy to change out the keycaps and switches as the keyboard itself comes with the tools u need

[sharp ferry]

what price?

the "msrp"?

[split swift]

Greater than 1$

[sharp ferry]

the 9060xt isnt even out yet we dont know its real price

[distant iron]

my desk has this built in monitor platform thing

so i cant fit in pc on it]

[mystic tundra]

less than 50 grams of gold

[sharp ferry]

it doesnt have 6.5 grams of gold valued at $700 for $5000 more

[versed hedge]

bought a 17$ chromebook

worth it?

or should it have been sold for lower

[alpine gale]

Impossible to say without knowing what you bought. $17 is really cheap, even for a Chromebook, so it's likely either defective / broken in some way or very old.

[versed hedge]

Samsung Chromebook 4, N4020, 4GB RAM, 16GB storage. Defective keyboard, priced down 94%

this ones from like 2020 so WP firmware lock is disabled by unplugging the battery, so modding will be straightforward

[alpine gale]

Assuming everything else works, yeah, you can likely mod this one. Even if not moddable, Google is supporting this model until 2029. https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/6220366?hl=en#zippy=%2Csamsung

[versed hedge]

it is moddable, MrChromebox's bios is compatible

and even then if it wasnt, it would very likely run

or I can use the legacy boot option (which is easier but no windows)

11.6", average, probably a school grade chromebook

I kinda think the seller mighta mispriced it

[sharp ferry]

thats not how anything works

[versed hedge]

mb i misread

will be deleting that

generally, if they want it back because they mispriced it, legally I dont have too

it gets more complicated if they refund me without my consent but under that senario id still have the legal high ground

[vapid smelt]

its broken ewaste i think the price is right

[shut lichen]

^ if the price was wrong they would've noticed before shipping it

[viral owl]

[oak pier]

power isn’t all that expensive in most places

plus it isn’t running at max power draw 24/7

[viscid elm]

Modern parts have great idle

And with vsync most times power use is dam low

[runic lagoon]

the beelink m.2 raid looks kind of cool.

[viscid elm]

Yup

Only thing that does not make sense is the god dam 2.5g networking well 5g with lag

[oak pier]

if you’re spending that much on M.2s it should have been 10g rj45 + 10g sfp+

[runic lagoon]

6x m.2 has a theory of what 21gbps?

[oak pier]

gen 4 or 5

[runic lagoon]

I was assuming gne4

but like the GPU, ports, your computer, network switch, there are so many places for bottle necks to happen.

[oak pier]

theoretical 384gbps

(based purely on interface speed)

you’re looking at closer to 42gbps functional peak

[runic lagoon]

but like you'd probably do like raid 5 with 1 or 2 spare

[oak pier]

i’d do raidz1

I had to install windows from windows 11 boot installer yesterday. And I have to say I didn't know it has gotten so bad. Like the installer is just one big advertisement for MS services. And they force you to sign in with a MS account, and then try to sell a bunch of MS services to you, and force a trial. And force you to set a 'quickpin', which at the very least is a BAD password, and worse is like a whole 2nd password you got to memorize. And by default it has a bunch of spam on the lock screen, start bar. And there no UI way to get rid of the advertisements / internet search of the start bar. they install a bunch of MS for profit services, and even if you uninstall them, they come back like freaking ghosts.

i installed my old hard drive fine, but i cannot access my user files, can anyone help with this?

[runic lagoon]

MS seems more aggressive because you can't choose to create a local account from the UI. You can't ope out of a trial. It tries to sell you multiple services. Because it re-installs bloat wear. You can't disable the bing by UI. There are for profit advertisements on the login window, start menu, search results.

yah I'm just griping, but with streamOS, and some of the unix/linux os becoming more polished they could actually start to loose marketshare over this nonse.

[polar fern]

Well, I’m moving to Linux.

So it’ll be macOS & Linux

[alpine gale]

When Linux becomes accessible to Sally Sue and Dubias Dave who know next to nothing about operating their computers, sure, maybe. To be clear, I want more choice in the market, but the things is... Linux needs to start shipping with computers and have a standardized means of support for it to gain enough market share to matter to your average consumer and the software developers writing productivity + creative apps. 😦

Maybe it'll happen - I hope it happens. But we're 30+ years into standard "at-home" consumer computers and yet the market is still dominated by Windows and MacOS.

[runic lagoon]

some vendors now sell pc with chromOS or linux, and include support.

Well.... it works a 5 yr old just built a pc

[tacit marsh]

yo

[polar fern]

Man, can’t believe the insane prices on rx 7000 series cards

[oak pier]

he meant the r slur, not the hard r

dude just fucked up that verbiage in the worst way possible

[polar fern]

? Wha?

[oak pier]

there was a wan where linus said he said the r slur years ago, cause it was normalized at the time

but he worded it as “the hard r”

[polar fern]

The R Word in question is the old-fashioned outdated term for mentally challenged. What are you even talking about?

I saw that WAN show.

[versed hedge]

he said "the hard r" which means the n word ending in er

[polar fern]

No

[versed hedge]

oh my bad

i misread

lmao

[polar fern]

If you actually watch the whole thing, you’ll see that there was a misunderstanding

[fossil frost]

Linus thought he was talking about one word, Luke thought Linus was talking about the other word. it was that simple

[oak pier]

there was a user that said they used the hard r a lot, then cited the wan show where linus said that as why it wasn’t that bad

[polar fern]

The mentally challenged one was seen as not a big deal

[oak pier]

this to be specific

[polar fern]

It was actually used as a medical term for a long time

[median idol]

Pub Chat being Pub Chat, I see

[fossil frost]

tbh, its definition has always been "slow" or "to slow"... and it was the definition that was applied as "slow to learn" or "slow to take on new information"... "to slow down" still uses that word (i dont fancy playing with the warship) in motor vehicle design and especially in motor sports, but is usually in the form of "r----dation" (im still not gonna use the full word), meaning "rate of slowing" or... how good your brakes are

[polar fern]

🤷‍♂️

When I was in school back in the day, so many words were used that are just so inappropriate and it really sucks that we ever used them to begin with

These words were not just in the schoolyard or on the bus. They were also in movies.

[dense blaze]

Why is my pc not showing the bootloader menu after I added another entry from easybcd it's just straight up loading to windows without showing the bootloader

[split swift]

Yeah, the whole thing was linus said everyone used to say the "hard R". For everyone that means the N word hard R, but for him, he ment the special people word

[split swift]

Its also a mechanical term too

For timing

You cannot connect the laptop to the internet in order to download drivers.

Weird.

[zinc verge]

Nope

New laptops come with windows 11 keys also so it's not really my choice

Windows 10 was working fine and installing most necessary drivers

Why would Microsoft remove that from 11

IT'S EVEN THE SAME DRIVERS

[pliant karma]

I was suggesting this to some legacy devices at the place I use to work for. They were too cheap to fork over money for that, apparently after I was let go they started cutting down costs in important parts.

[zinc verge]

[pliant karma]

IT Dep was cut in the US so only the ones in canada still operated at their headquarters, but if other issues came up at the Bloomington, VA site and Guadalajara site in Mexico they'd fly out someone.

Guess during the merger they only needed me and others for that short period before terminated people.

[pliant karma]

not bad I had to manage close too 150 users during the merger so 150 reloads within a couple of weeks lol.

[alpine gale]

Also, this. I see (and report) wildly inappropriate Guild Tags left, right, and center. Think all combinations of bad / derogatory 4-6 letter words being used as Guild tags. I'd love to see the stats on number of users and Guilds banned from the platform for offensive tags.

[pliant karma]

Though thankfully I had an image with the same laptops so it was just simple enough I didn't have to configure much in the end.

[alpine gale]

Idk. It's been working just fine on my custom built desktop for almost 3 years now, and also fine on both my personal and work provided laptops for almost 2 years now. It even successfully delivers BIOS updates to these laptops, too.

Now, if your hardware / drivers just so happen to have problems with Windows 11 (usually because the manufacturers fail to update their drivers) I can absolutely understand sticking to Windows 10 so your device actually functions. That makes sense to me completely. 👍

I solved that by temporarily connecting Ethernet for the install to complete. Then I added the wireless drivers

[rustic tundra]

i dont have a ethernet cable on myself so i always have the wifi drivers on a usb

weird someone expects windows to automatically install a unit specific driver

it is i very cute frog

Pics or it didn't happen.

You know the rules lol

[winged spire]

Not using a treadmill obv but

[supple pawn]

I assume you have the orientation of the print head such that its perpendicular to the moving surface rather than parallel as a normal 3d printer is?

[winged spire]

Here’s the top half.. lol when I get back home I’ll take a better picture

It’s 90° since it’s for mass production rather than printing super long things

[supple pawn]

Ah, got you. I was thinking about making one super long piece.

[winged spire]

I plan on designing one that can switch

But for now I’d have to redo the whole thing

The 45° angle makes it impossible to do certain geometry so having it also able to print at 90° is super helpful

I plan to wallmount these

So the parts just fall into bins beneath them

[vapid smelt]

thats how you made so many undetectable prison shanks

Why am I at fault for the car crash where my car was totaled!? It’s not my fault that there are cars in my way and I can’t see anything

[dark sluice]

i bought pc parts from taobao, wish me luck it arrives and works✌️

[vapid smelt]

if you cant see why are you driving

[dark sluice]

it's only 200 usd so i am not too worried but it's still alot and not at the same time

[wheat karma]

Idk. I managed to never total a car in GTA that’s why

Besides I’ve been on the streets for only the past few months

[vapid smelt]

if you have poor visaiblty you get off the road or drive so slow if somthing jumps infront of you , you will be able to stop in time

[wheat karma]

I was going 40 on a 55 road

But never hit the brakes because I couldn’t find the brakes

[vapid smelt]

i was going 8 on a 25 and got a ticket for going to fast in for the road conditons while it was snowing since got in a crash

my car didnt stop while on a hill

[vapid smelt]

its the one next to the gas pedal

Yall seen klarna is getting absolutely fucked

Lmao who knew giving out loans for chipotle to poor people with no collateral was a bad business model

[lament osprey]

Not enough capital to buffer themselfves lel

[winged spire]

There are some that do no credit checks or anything

Like bruh

Tf did you expect

[hard oriole]

my opnsense machine was acting up, not serving IP addresses so I went to reboot it and it just didnt power back up
its my acting router so i have it on top of an older PC with the psu wired into my router lmao
and when it booted back up DHCP was working again

[lament osprey]

Money

[winged spire]

The business model works if it wasn’t in one of the worst economic periods in decades

[hard oriole]

the car market is begging for the loans to bust

[lament osprey]

Fair any recesion would devestate thier operation

[lament osprey]

Im about to blooow

[winged spire]

Delinquency is at record highs

In almost every sector

[hard oriole]

the amount of people spending most of their income on a stupid truck on a subprime loan-

[lament osprey]

Yep

[hard oriole]

i spent 4k on my 07 corolla like 5 years ago and have spent like 3-4k on maintinence

[winged spire]

I don’t plan on financing a car ever

[lament osprey]

Propper maintenance goes a long way

[winged spire]

Unless I get some crazy low interest rates

[pliant python]

I think I got scammed on my new gaming PC

[hard oriole]

its far overdue for an oil change i hate to admit 😭

and a pulley bearing is going bad

[pliant python]

It said it had a RTX4090, but it has a GT710

I dropped 3k on it

[lament osprey]

I financed my knalta through my family i got ofered a 0% interest loan essentially so i wouldnt get rained on : ) love em its all paid off already too

[lament osprey]

Mood

[winged spire]

Yeah if there’s a 0% APR or something I’d finance it

Put the money in the s&p or something

[hard oriole]

i think im at like 50k miles since my last oil change

[winged spire]

Bro

[hard oriole]

i miss my older camry where i could do the oil change without a jack

[lament osprey]

It didnt lay dormant sadly but my fam dont like stocks

[winged spire]

🤨

Index funds are just about the easiest way to grow wealth

[hard oriole]

it was just high enough i could get things loose without lifting the car and sneak in the oil pan

[lament osprey]

Ye i tried to explain but they wont put money into stocks at all

[hard oriole]

its synthetic-
in theory im just reaching the end of life of the oil now, right? /s

[winged spire]

I don’t put money into individual stocks but a well balanced portfolio is about as fool proof as money gets

[lament osprey]

Its mostly the aditives that are breaking down like anti wear shiz

[hard oriole]

if you do make sure its something you are willing to lose a good chunk of

[lament osprey]

Yep

[winged spire]

Day trading is cringe

[hard oriole]

yeah i had considered that and added some like 10k miles ago

[lament osprey]

I still need to change the oil in the knalta after a cylinder head breaking incident

[hard oriole]

if it werent for the power issues i would have just engine swapped my Pontiac Grand AM that blew a head gasket and so i sold it for $400

it had a parasitic drain issue, went through many alternators, and just ended up putting the car in neutral at lights and revving the car up to 2k-ish rpm to recharge the battery

[lament osprey]

One way to do it

I need to fix my gearbox cause it dosnt want to change gears so its essentially stuck in forward

[hard oriole]

the shop that i had "diagnose" it wanted 2k usd+ to replace the computer and i wasnt convinced that was gonna fix it

[hard oriole]

transmissions are a spawn of satan

i think i still owe the shop that diagnosed that car cause i was supposed to bring it back the next day-

[lament osprey]

Thank god i got a variomatic and only foreward neutral and reverse

[hard oriole]

1800's ah term for a cvt-
i had to google that lmao

[lament osprey]

I can go the same speed in reverse as foreward love it

[hard oriole]

well now you have to make a video doing a whole race in reverse

[lament osprey]

I am trying to get a local yearly cross to let me participate with it

[hard oriole]

i actually put all my repairs on vinwiki

[lament osprey]

Nice

[polar fern]

#cars might be a good place to post this 😎

[hard oriole]

when i sold that car and was looking at my folder of reciepts it had been in the shop almost every 3 months for 2 years

[lament osprey]

Were keepin the chat alive lel

[lament osprey]

Smol maintenance

[hard oriole]

for major repairs that kept it from moving-

[lament osprey]

Ah auw

[hard oriole]

each like 1200 bucks minimum

[lament osprey]

Thank god an entire engine for me is 590 ish bucks

I might have had to replace it lel

[hard oriole]

i should have just engine swapped my 2001 camry when it died

i loved that car

[polar fern]

Almost every Pontiac that I know of from that era has had numerous amounts of pretty serious issues, including bad timing, belts, and bad components in the valvetrains

[hard oriole]

it sure was fun to drive though

[lament osprey]

I mean if theyre still worky they worky

[vapid smelt]

did you pay a shop to replace the hazard relay

[polar fern]

A family member of mine had (I think it was a bonneville?) had stuff wearing out from the valve train that blocked oil passages and caused the engine to seize up in the middle of driving on the highway

[hard oriole]

nah i just bought it on ebay

[polar fern]

The shop we had it towed to said it bent a piston rod

[chrome vector]

I didn't know that. Sounds like th PEGI system is a joke. ESRB rates it Everyone (10+)

[lament osprey]

Better than an engine throwing a piston due to bad maintenance on a highway a coworker hat it recently

[polar fern]

The car literally screeched to a halt. I think they were going about 70 mph.

Front wheels were not turning so they had almost no steering

[hard oriole]

my camry died fairly gracefully, it started one morning and i put it into gear and it died
it had been leaking oil for a few weeks and i was keeping an eye on that but didnt have time working 80 hour weeks to get it looked at proper

[lament osprey]

Better that an un controlled piece of metal flying arround

[vapid smelt]

i had to replace my power steering pully/pump after it came apart on the free way and a few months later i replaced one of the power steering lines

[polar fern]

I don’t know about that. The engine literally just stopped, and they had no steering and almost no brakes.

They were traveling in the middle of the night or else there may have been more traffic and it would’ve been a lot more dangerous

[vapid smelt]

i still drove my car 12 freeway miles to my works parking lot with a missing pulley and my engine still ran fine

[winged spire]

Guh

This is my car

[chrome vector]

sacre bleu

[polar fern]

Probably an accessory pulley

AC

[hard oriole]

ill never forget losing a caliper bolt on my truck the first time i did my own breaks and having to redo it with loctite on the side of the highway

[polar fern]

Yeah, you’re supposed to use a torque wrench for those.

[lament osprey]

True but with normal road laws like keeping distance should prevent getting hit

A uncontrolled flying piston can fly through peoples thier windschields and is harder to anticipate

[hard oriole]

had to get a ride to the nearest autoshop and back for a new bolt and a wrench lmao

[vapid smelt]

was for the powering steering, im just shocked it still ran fine with all play in the serpentine belt

[polar fern]

There’s no law for how close people are

Ahh ok

I live near interstate 95 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike and there is debris on the road all the time both from trash trucks and things like that and also people just driving rust buckets

[lament osprey]

True exept when someone is driving infront of u so theres time to react instead of tailgating someone

[hard oriole]

when my stepdad and i were towing his Model T from Denver to Phoenix in a truck we just bought with dual fuel tanks, there was an issue with the pressure between the two and we got stuck in the mountains with our fuel spout spitting pressurized gas

[polar fern]

Well, it’s not necessarily behind it in front their car slid diagonally because the front wheels were locked, and the back wheels kept turning.

[vapid smelt]

https://tenor.com/view/kazoom-gif-21734429

[polar fern]

They are lucky they did not completely spin out and go off the side

[hard oriole]

we siphoned some gas from the model T to limp to a hardware store a few miles down where we bought like 20 vice grips and "deleted" the extra fuel tank

[polar fern]

Wish I had some food to eat

[hard oriole]

i controlled traffic while running back and forth with a gallon ice tea jug of gas in the left lane lmao

[lament osprey]

Get some
