Idk given that the sale ends tonight and the red drives already sold out I went ahead and bought the best buy drive.
I have 15 days as of purchase or maybe its arrive date to return so I can look then.
None of them list drive hours besides the one that says 64% health and that's really bad. I'd just not risk it. It should be cheaper but new market...anyways if I find some cheap here is health or we accept full return so I'm not paying for a lot of shipping just to realize how old and not great and close to failing the drives are maybe but I might just not have the hassle. I only need 8-12TB for my parents and I have 1 1TB I compress to all hell as an off sight backup on the really important stuff.
I'll see how it goes the nas project is gonna be done somehow. Just wish AI didn't come for us all and I could just buy a $80 4T new red and be like but I'm not saving much for used and not worry.
Thanks for the help though.
brand new, these are £90-120 per drive here
Maybe I'll buy one cheap one or two as a spare case one of my 4 actually do have 1-2 die and worry about it then.
chat
one of the best bargains i got on ebay
turnt out it was a wd red plus, instead of a wd red, so a guaranteed cmr drive
the aio comes with decent paste
min maxing bro
Better days
nope, quite literally decent to use from the get go with what comes with the aio
50 is good pricing.
You think its a good idea to have 4 new or close to it (my old reds I never setup in the nas for real deployment so very little power on hours) and 1 cheap spare from eBay? I probably should do it the other way around but having 3 good drives it doesn't exactly make sense to put in one more bad one?
then ill get the paste for future
i still love the fact i got a £80 soundblaster xe for £30 on ebay also, and it doubles up as a decent dac
Used to gather quite a few of these
my case supports 360mm aios. IF SOMETHING goes wrong and it doesnt fit i can return to amazon right?
its like my first time shopping on amazon tbh
you can sometimes find a really good one on ebay if you look about, sometimes the refurbs you find are from nas/server upgrades from companies
guys the aio wont fit lol
yes you can
what case
helpful
Yeah
I wonder why it didn’t fit “idk what case”
Why is that auto called a "360" when it's actually 397mm huh
because 3x 120mm fans = 360mm
thanks for the help
Yeah so why is it 397?
hardest part of pc is finding a case
tubes
So I gotta get a 240?
fun fact, you need additional room to mount the tubes
rads on aio's go by the amount of fans that are on it, the rest of the rads size is due to where the tubes attatch to it and the chambers
Mmm
welcome to the industry standard that has existed for decades
last time i bought a krux case with "aio support" it didnt fit xddd
I want a 360 tho but it won't fit
another faming-slop game with 514k players
you either need a different case, or a smaller rad then
kids are stupid, easy money
its weird it only has cosmetics
NZXT kraken plus 280?
sailor moon one piece
It's a 280 okay nvm
does your case support a 280mm radiator?
with demon slayer
Yes lol
i thought this too lol it has like 20 diff animes
a 280mm radiator is wider than a 360mm
It had like uhhh idk
shit aio
Why lol
overpriced
shitty pump also
go thermalright/arctic/id cooling
what case do you have
air or thermalright something
I literally just said that
..
or smth like that
Or smth like that
The current potential hunt
THERMALRIGHT FW 240?
Maybe I'll keep looking I just didn't want to fully be out of luck. If I find some older drives maybe for off site smaller backups or a just if I absolutely need and my drives do fail for some reason drives I'll buy used.
holy shit i paid 300 for mine 3080 in 2023
I have time before I need to return the best buy one.
Itll still probs go up last few minutes bids usually skyrocket
THERMALRIGHT FW 240? @craggy cove
3 chambers that a radiator has @rustic lynx
i wish evga made more crads
3080 not ti
evga my beloved
regardles, i find 3080s for about 370 usd here
Just stepped out side
decent for it, though it can go as low as 220 if you spot one early enough
THERMALRIGHT FW 240 is good?
it has a screen=its good
Yuss
it's always an option, many companies do put old hdd's up for sale fairly cheap to make money back for their upgrades
like last year
SO CAN YALL JUST TELL ME
yessssss
how do i know if an aio is good? how do YALL know?
reviews
Tbh ill be trying to flip my 3070 ti diagnose card in the meantime while keeping it on the back burner, always be trading up
consume maybe
Read reviews online, usually with big buckets of salt.
man i hate people who ask me questions then question my intelligence
maybe you try too
some people fake it cuz they get paid?
I might I'm just worried with this market its gonna be a lot closer to we sold them because our drives gonna fail real soon because we can't afford to buy larger ones.
I wish I could afford larger ones. I'll feel much safer if they tell me the read/write hours but big companies don't usually.
I'm keeping the 3 drives I have. So should I just buy used backups as a just in case mine fail, or off site backups or actually put a used one in the 4th slot I have?
well ur a wizards fan so i question your intelligence too
we'll be back
we have a strong young core and future
I make a few google searches
teardown reviews
im a lakers fan so idk why i even brought nba up
The next move will be collecting ssd nvme to replace all my hdds over the next 5 years 
my personal opinion is to get Arctic Liquid Freezer II or III, unless you want something more special, like a display on AIO
i genuinly dont get how you think
ok bro 👍
season just went down the drain in a 12 hour span that's one of the craziest downfalls ive seen due to injury
with data, you need to remember the old 3-2-1 rule
how would you know if we lied
Collecting?
As in walking down the street and looking for SSDs?
okay im buying this shit idc
or also refered as 3-2-1-1-0 rule
Lol
nah bro someone paid you to come in the ltt discord and spread propaganda about a aio you havent seen before
thermalright sent me 3 aios for free so im kinda biased
damn
which ones?
obviously
the frozen notte v1, the one that they had to remake due to pump failures
the v2 is a really solid budget aio
Id shill for a sponsor lol
does it have a screen tho?
💸
just a infinity mirror
i had like 1500 followers and just asked and they agreed somehow
its nice too
Notes make tech channel
so what do you think about the FW240? ever tried it?
Ape together strong to you too kind sir
ive heard its just meh, id go for the grand vision if i wanted a screen from them honestly
So I have cloudflared installed and running on my hex os Nas along with zipline, I have cloudflare tunnel pointed at zipline ip but when I load my domain I get 502 error, I can reach zipline locally tho. Someone PLEASE help
how much is the grand vision? sound fancy and very expensive
depends on amazon is feeling dumb or not cause some days i see it at $70 other days its $120
wow i remember trying to help yesterday and i just got ignored
Vyr why no yt link in bio 
@flat cliff said rules, also if the master backup is on one cloud then a second cloud should also be used
i see it for 107$
it was an old tiktok i dont make vids anymore 💔
Tiss fair ❤️
Bruh u should have pinged I'm sorry
are you going to look at your pc that much
yes
i would recommend a deepcool mystique but they got banned in the usa so no warranty (which is where i got fucked cuz my screen died)
its on my desk so how am i not supposted to
I somehow have 221 subs still lol havent posted in a minute. Myte make a new channel though not sure yet
im not in the us
eu
i got my mystique for like 90 usd
what's your tunnel config?
@native path don't be shy to ping people
Their opinions don't matter <3
the grand vision 240 is twice as expensive as FW240
i would but when the video editor crashes 80 times i js give up
i did tho
use liquid nitrogen
and i do not want to spend my entire budget on an aio
I also havent learned obs yet just use my phone usually xD
dam yeah sure
Just defult, only set it up and pointed to zipline atm
the FW240 will do its job so why not?
I only saw first message lol
did you setup a dns record?
im sure itll be fine
gettin it then
Idk maybe the @ was set to off
Anyway im gona go hit the hay
nah its always on for me
and sorry for my incoming dumb question but i can swap the fans right?
yes just unscrew
all of the thermalright aios i have come with a tube
put 4k 240 oled inside ur pc
yeah dude good idea
i wish oleds were not that expensive
my ips shit is getting boring
I think I did I'll check when I get home lol
Thanks tho
you can check on the cloudflare website you don't need to be at your pc to check
Inside?
Can I put one inside of myself
Might hurt but yeah
anything but performance 🙏
Like can I replace my eyes with 4k 360 oleds
Vortex of dooOom
sure ill get a 5090 for 60$
Lol warshipped kekss
It's in the shape of a male genitalia, mb
Life often is
Yeah that's fair
This is why you give space for your pc
I say we all install our pc hanging down from the ceiling
To make sure it has plenty of room on all sides
Exactly
😋
Don't lick the aio
bought it
why ):
Trust me, it won't taste nice
Mmmm copper
i wanted to lick it so badly bro you ruined my day 😭
Mmmm silicone tubing
i do that all the time
Thermal paste is edible
Lick that
uhm guys i got a huge problem
And if you're feeling really brave, the capacitors on your psu
why does it show that i bought 2 aios
thermal paste will turn you blue if you eat that💀
oh fuvk
Taste test before purchasing
😭
Luckily amazon charges on shipment
im not kidding. It shows that i bought and paid for 2 aios and it only took my money for one
And your within a day should be able to cancel
Nice, you can sell the other one
Also yeah you can cancel
bro it shows that i bought 2 aios but i bought 1 and it charged for 1?!?!?! THEY BOTH HAVE SEPERATE TRACKING NUMBERS
I'm not clicking on a link with that address name
Cancel 1
Lmao
Oh George
till they charge for the second one when it ships
I'm opening it in tor
it wont charge me money cuz i didnt put my credit card info in LOL
i paid by blik which is a ONE TIME code
guess it'll cancel then

Hear me out, order more, you got double the aios for your money
And then you can resell them, and make money or cancel it out and just got it for free
4 whole days
96 hours
guys imagine i get two aios lol
Bring Genghis back
shows that i paid for two lol
right
If you get two, what are you gonna do
You can make a really jank contraption and strap it to your GPU
lol
Dual water cooling, but in the worst way possible
Do a giveaway
Where the raffle ticket is £1 each
And have like a 1000 people buy it
And make Hella bank
I mean you can also keep it, in case you need it for anything
yeah lol
for now i wont think about anything cuz if it doesnt come ill be sad
but IF two come in 3 days ill sell one
Yeah just chill your beans
yeah ill chill my balls
No not those
But if you want you can chill them with the spare aio
Gonna be real cool
yeah cuz they get so hot when i jerk that they overheat
You know, there are cases that support that
yeah
Ouch
I have to ask for the sake of the server to change the topic, but you're valid
lol
ANYWAY, what's the rest of your pc
okay so what should i get with 60$? aesthetics
uhhh the specs?
Yes

i tried teh glitch and it shows i go anotha one
uhh
What specs
Don't worry about the above
Photopea in your browser, just type in photopea
i5-12400F buying like an I7-13700 or i9 soon, 32GB DDR4, GIGABYTE B660 GAMING X DDR4, RTX3080 and 2TB ssd 3rd gen nvme
old pc
got it in 2022 i think
That's still a solid machine
yeah ik i js hate the cpu
Why
bottlenecking
I looked into it and it seems pretty good, the only thing is I wanted something offline
bad singlecore
its ass at single core and kinda buns at multi
Ah fair enough, check out what kirashi sent
Are you any better? Exactly, your CPU is fine
Listen I have a 14700k and I can't play oblivion 4 remastered cause of it (I could but now I can't for some reason)
ITS FINE, don't waste your money on a new CPU unless you really need it
Mine won't even allow me into the main menu
is it unstable by chance lol
Tbh 2nd game it did that with
probably has a GT1030
Like the game tells me the CPU is the issue
i got a GT1030 and i gotta say its so fucking good
Thank you!
its buns
4080 super, 14700k, 32gb cl36 7200mhz ram, all on a Samsung 990 pro
holy
It is not the specs of my pc
https://www.techradar.com/computing/cpu/intel-releases-new-patch-for-cpus-affected-by-instability-issues-but-wait-werent-we-done-with-this-already
did you get the patch?
Also like I have a copy of Photoshop CC 2019 that I got through some less than honest means
Leg me check it
Let*
just check your bios version
also i got the same problem with one game @median warren
either in the bios or hwinfo
Ah yeah I do need to update my bios I think, I'll do that tomorrow, it's only 2 games that it really affects for me
Oblivion 4 remastered, lords of the fallen
my bios are from 2022
That's insane
mhm
At least mine just tells me "fuck off, you have a dodgy CPU" and kicks me out
lol
cause its a 14700k i think its degraded so rip ?
It's fineeeeeee, performance is good at least
i mean new bios fixes the problem where the cpu fries itself no?
It's only 2 games too so it's not like it's common
degrade = instability here
I got a problem with my ram
Yeah but not THAT unstable, just with certain games
it makes it so the cpu doesnt fry itself anymore, but if its already fried its fried
Also my CPU will not fry, I got a 420mm aio strapped to it
yup
you dont understand
With a thermal grizzly pad thing
I cant build my ram
its not the cooling its the cpu itself
that does not help, they just degrade due to complex stuff
goodgirl
What cpu
I remember after buying it I saw articles about that
I will take both of your aios
13-14th gen intels
Gross, let's not here.
Also very unrelated but I saw someone buy plane tickets on a mobile phone and I cant tell you how much that startled me
Like thats not a phone purchase man
noooo 😭
Hello Peyton i got a ram issue here
now you need to take 3 cuz i glitched and i got 2 free
they have a 14700k 🙏
And not even from an app, but a website
Me with 1600x
Infinite aio glitch
yeah lol
Like who is doing that shit
well your 1600x isnt unstable at least
I've had it since January 2nd 2025, and it's only been 2 games that have had the issue so I'm quite okay with it
now lets js wait and see if they ship the two free aios that i scammed amazon from lol
Look i made ram homeless
Its not as unstable as you guys make it out to be
idk elon musk
Its based
Bro but like, on a phone?
my ryzen 5 5600 is based
Same
elon musk is a weird guy\
Surely they know the difference between a phone and a PC purchase
idk
a mobile phone in 2026 is just as adequate for people as a pc for others, dawg
i mean id make sure your 14700k isnt frying itself further by updating the bios
No no i get that
yeah but big purchases need a bigger screen
Wait let me pull something up
yk
ITs just it feels so weird
thats dumb lmao
you dont get it...
Its not just a bigger screen. I implicitly trust a pc/laptop more than I trust a phone
dont be logical here its a belief system
nah i get it i had to bust out my laptop for my brother's prebuilt
@median warren hers proof. Cant show more cuz itl leak my info
I'm too autistic not to
true autists make big purchases on the big computer
It just feels more mechanical and like each action has a clear and foreseeable consequence
add the girl modifier
I did do this, no idea when but it automatically came up, do you think it updated my bios? I mean automatically @craggy cove
This wasn't recently btw
If you actually get 3, that's insane
its the difference between using word or notepad to just edit basic text
🥀
no
Like sorry, even if I just need a surface to keep a sentence on until I move it to where it needs to be, I need it to be word
just an annoying driver installer thing you can disable in the bios
Notepad doesnt feel the same
Have you installed your chipset drivers?
I'm gonna have to get another usb drive to download the new bios version onto
Or Google docs
or something like that
what 😔 THOSE EXIST?
Yeah I mean it's all there and updated, I guess just forgot about the bios
your motherboard page has a whole bunch of wacky drivers
wacky and fun drivers
tomi they canceled one aio shit
To me notepad is the shady underbelly where I go to write basic .bat files
Report it
audio and ethernet 😈
ooh wait... i "confirmed my payment" and i got 3 aios again
considering the beyerdynamic DT900 pro X for my next headphones... anyone know if i need a dac/amp? if so what are some cheap ones that does its job and nothing more
that and schizophrenic notes
wtf
I'm using the dt990 pro and I had to get an interface for it
its 48 ohms, your motherboard will be fine
And the one I'm using is the Scarlett solo
watching a vid and it says "drive with an inexpensive zendac v2" and the thing is more expensive than the heeadphones themselves lmao
well those are like 250 ohms
Yeaaah
lost in the audiophile juice
@median warren want me to tag you on updates on the aio?
on god
Yes little brother George
do i dm you or wha
Same way It feels weird when official communication is over whatsapp
Mail me
bet
aw hell na
stuff like this
bet, if i wanna test out the difference between the mobo and an external one though, do you have any suggestions for one? if i cant notice a thing (which i dont think i will) i can always return it
im him
i have an old DaC thingy from a steelseries arctis nova pro... idk if i can use that or im just being bricked
Like thats email stuff bro, why are you as a company with a market cap placing you in the top 100 in the world asking me to reach your customer support through whatsapp. Email or phonecall only
no IM him
80 gpus is crazy
yeah cook that fraud
you are little george
YEAH
This is what I use
yeah bro IM HIM
He is little George Washington
MOMMY IM SCAWED waaaaah
👎
fih
You'd make a great breakfast, mmmmm bacon
d
WHERE IS MOMMY IM SCAWED waaaaaaaaaaaahhh😭
When i cant cut ram prices, then i cut the ram off
what are we doing atp bro 💔
ok dawg poor ram
We?
any big diff between these ones? like i dont plan on recording ever, i just wanna lissen to good music and play da video game
bros speaking french
yes we bbg
He is kinda homeless
the only difference is loudness
IT is not he
well uhh these are more for musical stuff
(assuming your motherboard isnt complete poo)
I named him fish
I don't know enough about audio interfaces to know the difference but the solo will do you fine, there's also a 4th gen version of that
uh no
buh i havent a clue what this means
Yes and he is now dead
good
Neural texture compression
So as the ram prices
one on the left is an older generation and has enough input for a microphone, instrument, and headphones
the one on the right is the newest gen with 2 microphones, 2 instruments, and headphones
supposedly a higher end "premium" codec, youre good
sweet
Use air compressor
if i want it louder ill pick up an interface at a later date. ty guys
i wanna get openback headphones ngl
Also why are you in wt / gtnh
Nuclear thunder grind, the SL gains are insane
I've gone from 70k to 4 million
Fr a insane sl gain
i do eventually wanna pick up a keyboard and learn to play that so maybe its inevitable that ill pick one up anyways
I did really bad and got 100k sl after a lose
I got tired of buying air cans. Got one of those electric air dusters lol.
shit wrong ping
meant for Laubgammer
Also I was just scrolling twitter and came across something I think is pretty on point. There was discourse about OS's going on and somebody mentioned that MacOS feels more like a phone OS than a computer one. While ofcourse this really isnt how it works, it does just also tie in to what I was talking about earlier with how some things feel computery and some more phone
anyone got recs for decent budget open back headphones?
Whats your budget
How much is the budget?
preferably under $150 USD
Dt990 pro, I got those for £110
i have no clue about the market of openback headphones though
I am no headphone guy, I just like them a lot
those actually any good? i see a bunch of people using them but they're also using SM7B microphones so i'm assuming they're just following trends
I've had them for eh, 2-3 years, they're real good
I am using it with the scarlet solo, cause they're 250ohm so
They need something that can drive them
yeah ive got a scarlett solo as well
Hell yeah
I mean trends usually do form for a reason
Anyone one 3d print here ?
Honestly with the DT990 Pro, some hate the sound signature others like it. More preference, though on my end it's the treble that I dislike.
TBF I've seen streamers have it so that is a whole other thing that sorta made it popular.
yeah this is kinda why i thought they became popular with the average person looking into better headphones
I'm more with a neutral sound signature for the most part
i dunno if i'll actually care for the difference in audio tho i'm just listening on youtube and spotify
Sennheiser consumer divison was sold, so if you can pick up any of their headsets atm, that's an option.
dt 990 pros yeah? not the pro x
Any difference
idk one is more expensive to me LOL
I've only tried the pros in store.
ehhh
i might not be that into audio to spend 150 yet
i might hold off on that and get my monitor first
Yea audio is one of those things where you gotta try it and if you don't like it return it at least from my experience.
Right now I am just upgrading to a dediacted usb amp/dac to replace the schiit one I have atm. Realtek drivers being stupid as per usual.
yeah that sounds about right
i just spent $100 on speakers for my desk because i wanted to move away from a soundbar and they were a cool color
i can tell there's like a very slight difference but that's only because it's coming in to different ears lol
TO BE FAIR the color is sick
you’re sick
Purple 👀
How do you fit them in? I'm considering these but I don't really have space for them
so blue
Definitely blue
lol I repurposed the smaller noctua fans I bought since they didn’t fit into the network switch I was placing them in
ive got 3 monitors and a tiny desk so at the moment they're sitting behind 2 monitors, when i get my larger table (~2 weeks) my monitors will all be on mounts and i'll have space for the speakers set up properly
these specific ones aren't really big they're pretty easy to fit
Hmm aren't the monitors going to be a bit high in that case?
I've got the same problem. triple head with a small desk
a little yeah, i dont know if i'm going to lay them flat or put them off to the side of the tables
flat like this cause tbf i don't really care about the audio
Anyone 3d print here ?
my desk only looks relatively cable free because i have 2 monitors on mounts and they come with built in cable management stuff
Its still funny how some people here try to finance 1tb 17 pro max’s as they already have 16 pro max’s
i have some bs here
this is with effort of trying to hide them
yea but this looks like you were testing drives and stuff
gimmie a sec
this is just here 24/7
I was
this is alrigfht
there are a billion problems with this image
nah its alright
what is alright 😭
holy grey loot
grey loot?
i am not a bro 😭
blast from the past
dual gpu cool tho
Darn deer
oop. Is that its tail fluff
https://makerworld.com/en/models/1089345-skyrc-setup-stand-tools#profileId-1082534
should I be able to print on flash forge 5m bed is 220x220
Yeee
I have data like laptop or phone and what not, nas for laptop stuff and an entire backup of my phone. A 1 TB for anything important like my encryption keys or some very important photos and what not that's gonna be moved off site. Its better then most people at least.
fair enough, but if you follow that rule, you generally are usually secure in backups, i would suggest having a book specifically for passwords to have a written backup of them
as long as you size it to your printbed, yeah it should do
I didn’t know if was to long but says a1 I know it has slightly bigger bed but about the same in terms of every thing else
anyone here does 3d printing?
The only thing I hate about my printer is the noice it makes
that's mainly due to it's print speed, you can dampen that a bit using an enclosure
Yawn but can I print my enclosure on my printer or no ?
Or do I need find bigger printer ?
Yo one of my teachers has one of the $1k Samsung ultra wides
you should be able to yes, just might mean tweaking it to the bed size in orca slicer
ender 3 v2/ender 3 neo v2 should be easily found for that, and possibly the likes of an a1 mini
any ender 3 gives you a good learning chance when it comes to 3d printers, also can cause headaches at the same time
there's also ender 5's which use slightly larger printbeds
you'd be spending an extra 30 or so to mod this into using 2 motors for z axis eventually
manual differential skew yay
anyone here knows a cheap 3d printer? used is also fine
Implant is healing nicely
2 motors + 2 linear rails, much more stabler compared to an ender 3 of any kind
microswiss hotend and direct drive from the looks of it
ender 5 pro this looks like also @ebon marlin
YO WTF? You have an nfc school implanted into ur hand?
"nfc school"?
School?
are we deadass
I love autocorrect
what even autocorrected to "school"
I meant chip obviously
bro planted an nfc chip and used it for ms auth 😭
is there any ender 5 plus versions like this ?@ebon marlin
I don't see the appeal of an implant, why not just have something wearable
based on it's looks, yeah
do you have to charge your hand now?
Something wearable can be lost or stolen
No it’s NFC powered
rich man, i see
It was a pain to install
he spent the money to have something implanted, but yes the 12KB of ram is what makes him rich
In this economy yes
That implant looks massive compared to some i saw years ago
12KB ram is basically enough to buy Texas
Back in my day we used to have gigabytes of ram. good old times
now thats only for the mega rich
Well having it implanted was free because I did that myself lol
These are RFID/NFC tags that a guy at vox had installed in 2015
damn, could still add to the pro version if you wanted, they're modable and upgradable if you ever want to delve down that rabbit hole, also easy to use a ras pi and add octoprint to it
Are you a medical professional?
Nope but there’s no one that can do it in my country because shitty laws and I don’t wanna fly to another country to get it done
why does the bag have an apple notch
what happened to the other 3?
"still no sepsis" is not a good metric
Those are really big, my god
This one failed after 5 years as it was a beta so had to remove it
guy lights up like a chrismass tree at tsa
inb4 he goes total recall and inserts a phone into his hand
I love when people give me offers on an item I am selling even tho first thing in my description it says price is firm. Some people are really illiterate these days haha
I thought i was bad with self injecting fluids, but this is just on another level
Good for you man, but i really hate the idea of having chips that big in my hand
Also it likely failed because it isn't intra-muscular
Destructive removals are easier than installs. By destructive, I mean you don’t want to save the implant. Because then you can make the incision just over the top of the implant which means you don’t have to worry about going too deep or anything so you can be quite aggressive.
the humble ring nfc removes need to have surgery
OOH I LIKE THIS
No, it failed because of the particular chip they used had coupling issues. Basically, if there was weak coupling when installing or removing an applet you would end up with garbled data that was not cleaned up which would slowly corrupt it basically, it was a known issue with the chip that NXP was aware of and was fixed in the newer model which is in my new implant.
fuck you martin, making me spend my money on a ring
Oh so the implant had a technological failure, not the implant being rejected
payback for ipv6
fair
the only implant i'd ever consider is an e-tattoo
Correct, rejection is very uncommon with these
I'm incredibly surprised you have such a high success rate given your at home surgery
What are you using to disinfect the skin?
The main risk of DIY is infection
if they ever make irl biomonitor implant i would highly consider getting one
Povidone iodine
As far as at home surgery goes, sounds like you're doing a decent job
My tools aren’t sterile, but I use hydrogen peroxide and saline to clean them as buying new sterile tools every time sucks, all my blades are sterile tho
they have, there's specific e-tattoo's for that
I’ve seen a few cases where people have gotten infections, but in most cases they still don’t reject and antibiotics resolves it, in some cases with very minor infections they resolve themselves as well.
though this is more what i mean by an e-tattoo
sensor tech isnt there yet tho but it is improving
afaik blood sugar is tricky one and current gen of sensors can only last 30 days max
literally powers from your body and you can reprogram the tattoo
Biomonitor - Subdermal implant which generates a constant LED readout of pulse, temperature, respiration, blood sugar, etc.
so kinda
subnautica voice "calorie intake reccomended"
e-tattoo??? holy tech
this is the one your refering to
i am reffering to cyberpunk one
a wearable e-tattoo that sits on the skin for a certain amount of time
rather than the subdermal kind which i sent a pic of earlier
yup, you can program it with whatever design you like, it runs off the bio-electrical impulses of your body
holy crap how long has this been a thing for
literally can troll people with the tattoo and you can make it display any type of qr code
this is a thing?
10 or so years
yes
can you turn the tattoo off??
removal of it would do that
lol they can also be used for eeg
unironically about to buy one of these
yup, conductive tattoo's exist
(NFC ring)
only thing is payment support is iffy and inconsistent
so if you want it to support payments make sure you get right one
lol nvm, the site has the ring listed for 29usd, but 65usd for shipping, fuck that
only 3 years ago almost @tired bear
its 2$ on aliexpress
so apparantly bc im not familliar with using github, im "computer illiterate"
you looked at a dropshipper
Figures, aliexpress it is!
quite literally a stick on tattoo for health monitoring @tired bear
who said that lol
this is you?
a dev for a cyberpunk modpack im installing
lmao no but i agree with it lol
I also agree with it
i think ive been on Github a total of twice
but to call me computer illiterate bc i dont use it is wild from a DEV
do you guys have any recs for laptop series I should look into
I'd say not knowing the definitions of things like CPU, 2FA, browser vs search engine, etc is computer illiterate
I wanted OLED, somthing small and light, not too worried about performance
ive set up multiple servers and have built dozens of pcs XD
yoga
Personally have a laptop from HP Envy line, its a really nice laptop
I was thinking this too
Ill try see if I can find a good 2nd hand deal
technically doable, it requires a flexible subdermal e-ink implant
i asked one of the mods why they were being condescending when i asked for help bc i wasnt familliar with Github, another chimed in and said i shouldnt be in that server bc of it and thats when i was called illiterate lmao
any good rep about ideapads? found some newer gens with oled for a good price
macbook pro
as i said, macbook pro
ideapads are cheap, nothing like a thinkpad or yoga
VMs ftw
good to know
why would you buy a macbook to then use linux as main OS in a VM 😭
I dont enjoy virtual machines
i have a hasee T8 laptop with a 12900h and a 3060 and i love it
they are not bad but you need to adjust your expectations
you know you can install linux on macs?
up to m2
just a prefrence, also it would be abit weird to have my semi main OS as a VM
no oled
Thermal runaway made my laptop surface temperature 70C
Ooo
who was talking about having a "main" os as a VM?
Oeoeoeo
You shouldnt buy a mac for linux
Macs are made for mac os
Maybe its the stigma but I cant imagine walking around with a mac thats OS is linux

Jim Mielke's wireless blood-fueled display is a true merging of technology and body art. At the recent Greener Gadgets Design Competition, the engineer demonstrated a subcutaneously implanted touch-screen that operates as a cell phone display, with the potential for 3G video calls that are visible just underneath the skin.
Hooooly fuck. All because I plugged it in at a low battery warning and closed the lid
but i suppose im not revolutionary enough
i did not read well enough into it
get a lenovo anything
just fully make sure sleep states actually work for all the devices on it
my galaxybook uses like 2.6w vs the like 1w its possible to do on em at idle
I tried running linux on my laptop but my battery life was ruined i had to switch back to windows
Windows has better gesture support tho
turn your skin into the stop watch @tired bear
That's what virtual machines are for
you are a virtual machine
Dont ask how
Yea just dont like Mac tho
GPS spoofer app...
Mac os is weird and i feel like its designed to trap you
You earn the others
Pls dont screenshot, these are worth $.000000000001
I used it for like maybe 7 years
I had a mac and a windows desktop at home
Always just preferred windows
Imo mac os feels more like a toy than a serious os
I did like mac itself
With weird design choices
sleek device
How did you find the island i live on?!
Yeah macs have good quality but sadly theyre held back by the walled garden
Wait so from what i understand Thinkpad>ideapad
Do one with big jeff's island please
c level and up get the following high tech device that is used to make corporate decisions:
You hurt my feelings
Plus if I get a mac w a VM, plus I have a windows desktop, im just dealing with alittle to many different OS
dang bro's actually trapped in apple park lmao
How do some people live with 128gb 😬
how tf ur spotify 20gb
downloaded music
Some music
that much? yeez
Yeehaw duck dollars
i got my phone almost 2 years and used 78gb
They add up
It's just 1 playlist
Hey all
Anybody had any experience with changing GPU fans in the past?
ion even kno how much it takes up, ion have it
Said people likely don't download a ton of apps / games to their phones. (Or if they do, they run out of space.)
Only?
On one of my external drives i think i have like 600gb of just music iirc
Ratio
I dont even have enough storage for all my photos on my current phone anymore
Me too I moved mine to my nas
I just use icloud
The bigger ones anyway I don’t need them on my phone
For my phone* and my nas for everything else
I do as well but I’m not interested in paying for a plan over 200GB, their next tier is 2TB and it’s $10 more, no thanks.
its $12.99 cad a month for me
Or 13.99
I forgot
It’s about that price here as well which I’m just not willing to pay for
I’m paying $3.99 a month for 200GB, it’s $13.99 for 2TB
My largest video from my phone is a bit over half the size of all your compressed files 
what do you possibly have that many photos for
I had a 30GB video kicking around on my phone for 2 years
Ace saves all da pics
I have a 2 minute video that is 12gb
I recorded in pro-res hdr
Mine was some stupid 48MP ProRes 9 minute video of my marching band’s performance
4k30
Its p easy
Hello, any recommendation for a good enclosure for a ssd m.2?
Safe or affordable? And external or internal?
I mean pcie slot adapter for 15-20$ would be cool and add a few slots depending
external, I'm going to use it to expand my mac studio
I'm worried about the heating aspect, idk if it will heat a lot or not
If under constant read or writes yiss
If not wanting it to be closed can try something like this https://a.co/d/0a5zmZIQ
Alie express has it for half price but shipping takes longer*
r u putting a top end gen5 ssd in it
otherwise its a non issue
This one for enclosed slightly more premium, ugreen has a better priced one
ya gen5
In that case thats hard to rec outside of the pc
You'll only get 500-1gbps externally
If you must though, your stoofs 
Haven't tested a 20gbps enclosure myte be faster
I have no problem about the speed, I just need that to work for like 9 hours a day without overheating
Should be fine i have like 4 of the cheap ones, thats a T700 hiding in the bag
I ran linux algos offem for over a day but they do get warm
I'll go for this I think
Ugreen has a slightly cheaper 20gbps model but that'll do to, just incase ill link
Zenbook A14 or an HP.
On god (Bought a Macbook air m4 and really like it. Os feels too soft padded room though)
I think its more the fact that it is supposed to be super smooth but has just walls that you hit and cant solve for
Rate the PC:
- Zalman FIT Mid-Tower
- B550-F Gaming WiFi II
- Ryzen 5 5600G
- Gigabyte 5060
- NZXT AIO (forgot the model)
- 64GB Crucial Pro DDR4-3200
- 1TB 990 EVO PLUS NVMe
- various other drives
PSU TBD
5600G is where I'd say it was an issue. What cost is it coming out to? Can you get 32 gigs of ddr5 for the same price as the 64 gigs of ddr4 because if so then thats what I would do allowing you to go for a 9600x
That’s a gen5 ssd?

I may have messed up on a recommendation to my brother then
Also just asking for the hell of it, what price increase would a 5700x or a 5900x bring to this build
I thought it was gonna be a problem as well. Turns out it isn't in my circumstances.
The 64gb turned out to be ~$500
Oh god
I have no idea
It was mostly made out of parts I acquired through a giant warehouse I have access to. (Do not ask)
What are you using the pc for and have you already bought it all or is it yet to be purchased
It's already bought. Im using it for almost everything, and nothing intensive enough to demand a better cpu. The CPU I bought myself and I wasn't willing to spend a lot. Don't worry, I know people who know what they're doing, and they've cleared it.
are there any good like gaming chairs out there
Are Intel confidential tray cpus worth buying? Or nah
Im not sure i fallow
I'm in between getting a normal used i5 12400f or a tray model of a i7 12600
Lemme show you gimme a sec
I think these get sent out to motherboard manufacturers to test out their motherboards yk
Oh engineering sample, id suggest not those
Okay okay
As tempting as itd be, potential much lower clocks
I got a i3 12100f rn and I think it's a heavy bottleneck my 3070 that's on its soon to me
I love that one meme of someone asking if gta 6 can run on windows 98
...
Will gta3 even run on win 98
Idk I'm not that old just turned 20 yesterday
Unc status, im .00001 years old
Lmao
Ngl it's wild how I changed so many gpus within 4 months I went from rx 590 to 1050ti, rx580, rx6600 and now 3070
Finally almost have a normal gaming pc, for me everytime I fixed something a new issue appeared
Plus I also upgrade from a 1080p 60hz desktop monitor to a 1440p 180hz HDR mini led monitor
Even tho it's not the best mini led or HDR, it's such an upgrade
I be just walking around in cyberpunk looking at light lol
Fair
Also if you're considering upgrade path ever I'd look for a 5900x on the cheap
Because oh boy is going ddr5 going to cost a pretty penny
The the private jet was it’s a curveball didn’t expect.
I didn’t get to watch this weeks lan
Thanks for the advice
But again, that's only if you get it really cheap, because even a 9600x outperforms the 5900x
Just ddr5 man
the gpu
does this look like magnetic tape degradation
huh
It looks more like your read head is dirty as fuck
Could be. Or more likely what @left dove said. Dirty read head / pickup in the camera itself.
Why does nothing work on my 10-15 old ipad; even Netflix just doesn’t open, YouTube just says error 😭
Because an iPad that old won't be able to run currently supported app versions required to use these services.
6600 to 3070 is more of a sidegrade imo
or even html5 for that matter..
Apple just makes it so old tech just becomes unusable
Tf are you on about?
Huh? This isn't limited to Apple. I'm not saying I agree with it, but all technology eventually becomes obsolete.
Meanwhile dudes ordering pizza from his wii still
They got caught for that back on the iphone 6/6s and went back on it
Listen I got my rx 6600 for 60 and sold it today for 130 and I bought the 3070 for 185 when it's usual like 240. The 6600 runs medium to low 1440p and has mid ray tracing and the 3070 can run ultra with way better ray tracing
Netflix YouTube , these apps were working FINE 10y ago; now they can’t even open cuz the software vs is like 9.3
The hardware hasn’t even changed
Correct. This isn't even an Apple thing either. It's up to the software developers to decide what they support. If their servers now require newer app versions, that's a choice the software developers made, not the device manufacturer.
Who would’ve guessed
codecs have
Why can’t they just make it so the old versions of the app still work
A great question for the developers. Long short: maintaining software stacks on X years of hardware eventually becomes too expensive. (Or the hardware itself lacks certain hardware-based features.)
And hardware has changed to support those codecs*
Now you’re forced to upgrade
Maybe buy a newer phone
always funny when i play around with a just slightly old laptop as the battery dies due to youtube liking to default to av1
It’s an iPad
Chat I made a lego hdd (not a real hdd)
What ipad? A 2nd gen? 
not mine, planning to buy it
Forced? Nobody is forced to do anything. Now? No, this has been a thing for as long as tech has existed. Old audio gear is really the only thing I can think of that you don't have to upgrade if you don't need newer features.
That is farrrr older than 10 years old
i just wanted to know if it was worth it
ok boomer
sounds neat
Apple haters when their 16 year old apple device cant run most apps
More like 3 of them
“mid raytracing”
IMO you should be able to use products the same way they could be used 15y ago
what are we gonna be raytracing on RX6000, tetris?
Tf are you smoking?
And you can - the iPad itself and apps it came with still function. Just because thethird party software that never shipped with the iPad stops working does not mean the base product stops. I'm 110% on board with manufacturers being LEGALLY required to unlock the bootloader on devices after they're no longer supported but we're not there.
If you have like a watch or something from 15y ago it still functions the same today; same for many other things
Even though it would be very very behind compared to modern tech
