Hmmm I wonder if someone would be willing to trade a 5080 trio for a 5080 fe

Hah ofc microcenter increased their prices further right after I got f*cked by amazon

Their workers are frankly too unreliable and I have a glaring suspicion my gpu was definitely stolen by one of them mfs whose parents didn’t raise and educate them properly

Is there such a thing as a body camera that uses NVME?? Im dying from Colon cancer, because a doctor didnt want to do the work at what my insurance paid, so deleted the colonoscopy records, and I need a good body camera to get all summons I serve. Problem is, the few I tried cant keep up. Im trying to find one that uses nvme, as thats the fastest medium on market today, and no worry of bottlenecking.

elfin mural
#

cameras that use ssds are rare as is, so you probably won't be able to find one

#

sd card should work fine though, transfers shouldn't take an eternity

Have you thought about getting a 5070 Ti? You might want to try before they're fully out of stock

And OC it if you want

That was what i wanted

Initially

craggy shoal

Man this is the worst I’ve ever seen the tech market

This is ridiculous for a 5070ti

They were just above msrp too at microshitter when i was building my pc

Even this is starting to look like a good deal rn

amazon thinks they're funny tbh

the indian call center they use for customer service is trained to basically give everyone the same answer. And they bold face lie to people all the time.

I stopped getting restock notifications for msrp 5080s too… cept at best buy… what an ironic name

I like how working at Amazon is a sign that your parents didn't feed or educate you in Sore's mind, bet all the warehouse workers taking their bathroom breaks in their unair conditioned warehouses because it is the best paying job around'd love that derpyBlob

unreal trail
#

Im sure they';re plenty air conditioned right now because its the middle of winter

nocturne flicker
#

Air conditioning includes heating

unreal trail
#

however many are left from the AI replacement anyway

nocturne flicker
#

They haven't got the AC in HVAC, you really think they'll get the HV too? derpyBlob

velvet summit
#

Air conditioning implies cooling and dehumidifying
Heating is just heating
Climate control implies heating/cooling/humidity control

unreal trail
#

yeah the hvac guy doesnt include your furnance in a AC checkup

nocturne flicker
#

Don't need a furnace with a heat pump

velvet summit
#

Honestly most places have the heating part of HVAC, but the AC and V are rarer

#

Many larger buildings still use boiler systems

#

And alot of European houses also use boilers

#

Though alot of commercial buildings also may use package units on the roof

#

Useful for fresh air

nocturne flicker
#

Though if we really want to be prickly, the word air-conditioning can be bogged down to just equipped with something with the ability to control humidity, temp and air purity

#

Per Merriam Webster even

velvet summit
#

Though in the context of HVAC, it just basically means refrigeration

nocturne flicker
#

I mean, I meant it in that they don't have any HVAC. Or according to MW, no air-conditioning derpyBlob

velvet summit
#

They most likely have heating, but cooling is fairly rare unless you are in a walk in cooler or the offices

#

Warehouses typically have ductless gas heating to keep the warehouse bearably warm (and not freeze the products)

#

Sometimes they have cooling even but it only turns on to keep the products within the ideal temperature range (typically like within 0c to 30c)

#

Idk what the temp setpoint is for warehouses typically are but it's probably around 10c, so like sweater temps

nocturne flicker
#

I mean, it depends on the warehouse. A lot of them a barebones and cheap as heck, because they are just there to contract out and extract the most money from each contract. Which is why unventilated and baking hot warehouses became an Amazon thing

velvet summit
#

Hot af warehouses are honestly the only time you're suffering tbh
Even if the warehouse was in the negatives, it's perfectly bearable because you're not standing still

#

Hell, you may even still be working up a sweat

nocturne flicker
#

Yeah, maybe bearable for the first couple minutes, but even being active in below freezing temps will still cause a lot of problems and will be uncomfortable

velvet summit
#

The heating and possibly cooling of a warehouse definitely depends on what products are being stored in them though

nocturne flicker
#

It depends on who the owner of the warehouse is

velvet summit
nocturne flicker
#

And I was born and raised in a part of the US that was almost always below freezing in the winter, layering up can only do so much at certain temps even if you are active

velvet summit
#

There is the addition of windchill outdoors

#

Indoors there's just a light circulation of the cooler fans, plus a little wind from riding the pallet jack or forklift

nocturne flicker
#

A windless, below freezing day is just as bad if you are out there long enough

#

You radiate your heat and you do it long enough you'll have a deep chill going to your bones

velvet summit
#

It's nowhere near as bad as the heat
And typically your shift only lasts for 8 hours for larger warehouses with multiple shifts

#

I worked at a smaller warehouse so we had like 10 hour shifts but the larger ones typically just have you work 8 hours then the next shift comes in

velvet summit
#

And unless your warehouse is storing something like stones or steel or whatever, Amazon is going to keep their warehouse above freezing to prevent their liquid products from freezing

#

So it wouldn't even be in the negatives

nocturne flicker
#

Amazon contracts out for their warehouses a lot of the time.

#

They have no control over those warehouses

#

So again, it'll be up to the owner of those warehouses

grand wasp
nocturne flicker
#

Amazon themselves have certain rules regarding heating and cooling. Doesn't mean Joe's Budget Warehouse and Storage Co. is going to follow them

proud jackal
velvet summit
#

Asides from products freezing, pipes also will freeze
They literally need to keep the building above a certain temp to keep their building functional

Partner cards actually will be worth something, but probably not what they are upcharging for them derpyBlob

If the miku card is anything like the evangelion one

It might be worth something

Or lose all its value

I tried ordering a pc last week, they cancelled my order and suspended my account without telling me then when i called customer service the lady hung up on me and i tried the form that says they will get back to me in 1-2 business days and its been 5 business days and ive heard nothing

ive returned very few things from newegg but when i do assistance is always instant

radiant hornet
#

Interesting

lone mango
#

I don’t order from newegg often

#

Actually kind of rare

#

But the times I have used newegg, I had no problems

#

In fact, I got a partial refund from the cpu I ordered because they raised the price when I ordered it

radiant hornet
#

Oh

#

Yeah i dont even care about buying a pc from them anymore i just want my account un suspended so i can order parts in the future but it doesnt look like i will

nocturne flicker
#

I don't always buy computer components, but when I do, I prefer Newegg. Or just whatever is cheapest I don't really care much ngl

#

Stay gaming my friends

velvet summit
#

i too have never had any issues with newegg
in fact, pretty much every time i ordered, my package arrived before the estimate by 1-2 days

though that isnt really newegg that make it that much faster, just fedex or whoever was shipping was strangely fast

pliant berry
#

I typically look at either newegg, b&h or microcenter if im shopping for pc stuff

velvet summit
#

newegg rarely has the cheapest option honestly
just around par

pliant berry
#

amazon is like my absolute last choice lmao. have had too many incidents and heard too many horror stories from them

nocturne flicker
#

I don't really do B&H much. I've bought one thing from them

velvet summit
#

amazon also rarely ever has anything cheapest

nocturne flicker
#

But it was a gpu so derpyBlob

velvet summit
#

though amazon is consistently cheaper than the big box stores for certain things like household chemicals

#

so i actually use amazon a fair bit to get those kinds of things lmao

pliant berry
#

i shop b&h too much, probably cuz im a photographer but i am also in ny so shipping is typically just a day

nocturne flicker
#

I mostly just buy food from Amazon tbh

#

Because I live in a one grocery store town so they have a price monopoly

velvet summit
#

oh yeah chips are also usually slightly cheaper on amazon, though when the stores get a sale it's usually cheaper

i also dont get chips often

sinful blade
radiant hornet
nocturne flicker
#

I could go to a nearby town to get food cheaper, but that is about 30 miles round trip and I ain't doing that whenever I just want something to eat

velvet summit
#

but basically amazon is the "oh shit i need something for a project asap and i don't care about it not being the cheapest option" or the random household chemicals or snacks store for me
aliexpress is my general electronics store, pc parts i dont really buy often but usually canada's computers has it cheaper when they have a sale

lone mango
#

It depends. Amazon has shit gpu prices tbh

velvet summit
#

and i use long-maquade for audio stuff

pliant berry
#

my issue with amazon is their shipping is rarely ever as advertised even with prime and they seem to have a habit of selling used items as new, even from first party

lone mango
#

Cpu prices are good on amazon, sometimes the cheapest

velvet summit
#

i've personally havent encountered any used items sold as new

nocturne flicker
#

My issue with Amazon is Amazon derpyBlob

pliant berry
#

well yeah there is that too

nocturne flicker
#

And I hate buying from them

#

Even if it is just food

lone mango
#

One was clicking/humming and the other had the back sticker partially peeled

#

And had some dust on it

pliant berry
#

lol

velvet summit
#

there may be a difference with canadian amazon since i don't really hear much about people getting used stuff sold as new here than i do from across the border

honest birch

but it also could just be because there's way more americans than canadians

Sometimes they just have the best deal

#

Ethernet cables are so cheap on there

velvet summit

ethernet cables i buy from infinitecables

pliant berry
#

yeah idk what it is but they seem to be having a lot more issues lately with either stolen or repackaged items

their office is fairly close by

pliant berry
#

true

velvet summit
dusk knot
#

hm.

lone mango
velvet summit
#

to be fair i did also say that if they didn't give me the difference in money i would return the item and buy it again for the discounted price

#

idk if they even looked at the price difference

100 ft cat 6 for $20

Flat cable too

honest birch

just give me braided

velvet summit
#

they also sell reels

#

(187 USD)

#

19usd/100ft

#

very nice

#

honestly this isnt really where the savings are, it's when you need a shitload of small cables

#

instead of busting your fingers making patch cables to go from a patch panel to a switch, you could spend 45 bucks on 20 very flexible patch cables

#

I have a funny run where the flat cable is stuck to the wall with mounting putty

velvet summit

goes up about 15ft from the main floor into a loft and then over a doorframe before down to my pc

i like round since i am more confident in it not getting crosstalk in any situation but for cable routing, flat may be easier

I thought flat wasn’t more susceptible

same, personally I'm really not a fan of... well, what most people listen to. most of the time im listening to soundtracks not much with lyrics

Video game soundtracks are music too right?

pliant berry
#

oh that reminds me I love some of the expedition 33 soundtrack

#

my only problem with it is that it's too long

lone mango
# worn wave looks fairly clean too tbh

Is a flat better for this? I feel like it would be. I can either have it hide under that hand rail and then go either up to the ceiling or if I can somehow get it to be snug in the carpet since the carpet is actually pretty tall. Or I can route it on the other side, on the second picture, and cross the bottom of the last stair and go from there

#

Kinda tricky

worn wave
#

hard to say from just pictures but flat will probably be better

#

could always get both from amazon and return one

no, let the ai do everything for them for free

Since I have a 9070 maybe I should run a local model

their usual counter against artists hating on ai is cost and access related

"but it makes 'art' more accessible and i won't need to pay a dime to make it look as good as yours!"

or better, and quickly

little did they know, is that someone has to foot the bill somehow

not just openai alone

This 9070 deal was so tuff bro

artists charge big bucks for "When I get to it, Im in a depression phase rn"

tbh i hate it when artists take money and run off with it for months and come back later to spit out something

so i try to find ones that are willing and able to actually work for their money's worth
