What should I do with a bunch of old Xbox 360s (early versions, 1?), in unknown states of repair and likely broken? (pic is something similar to what I got)

I mentioned to my friends I missed playing xbox 360 and was thinking of getting one to relive my past. Well they took it a bit too far as I have a reputation of being hard to shop for and as the "tech guy" who can fix stuff so now I have 12 Xbox 360s in various states of dysfunction. I already got a nicer one off ebay they didn't know about, so this stack of "gifts" is boarding on e-waste to me now but I feel bad if I just dispose of them plus proper disposal cost me money and a good drive out.

So far my ideas are
Scavenge the few 120GB hard drives for an experimental NAS
Scavenge the CD drives and build custom computer covered with CD slots. Maybe burn some preset programs to CDs to make it do silly tricks based on what CD is in which slot?
Something, something, all those heat sinks ... ???
Need more ideas, please help.

Also go 2 Kinect cameras, no idea what to do with those. Preferable a use with Ubuntu, as I've barely use Windows anymore.

I am going to test a PoE injector's ability to output 90W of PoE to a PD for an extended period of time, and under extreme temperatures.
The only PDs I found that would draw anywhere close to 90W are IP cameras running above $1,000. This isn't within my budget.
Are there any relatively cheap PoE "load simulators" available that would fit what I'm trying to accomplish? The only products I find labeled as PoE troubleshooters and testers confirm the IEEE standards the PSE is in accordance with, but I want an actual power draw.
I'm a bit inexperienced with this and probably missing something obvious, but would appreciate any thoughts.

How are you supposed to reliably convert between binary byte and decimal byte storage? I know it's basic division and multiplication, but I keep getting it wrong. If I'm converting decimal to binary, it's (125/128)^x, with x being the magnitude of the unit (1 for kilo/kibi, 2 for mega/mebi, etc.) right? I feel like I keep getting close but missing the mark, and it's driving me up a wall.

I get audio through my monitor which is connected via HDMI so I plan on getting a proper speaker, someday, which would connect via optical cable.

Was thinking I should get a DAC, which is connected to the PC then the DAC outputs to the speakers and headphones.

I don't understand internet, or computers.
So let me get this straight:
Bits are the smalles unit of information. They are either literally pulses of light or of electricity traveling through cable when transmiting information, or any arrangement of physical matter than can be used to convey information.
Bits transmit information through binary combinations that need to be interpreted by something.
In the case of the OSI model, the bits get through the cable to a NIC, which interprets these pulses by using some encoding system built into the NIC's hardware and firmware. The NIC reconstructs the original data and then organizes it into frames which will either be processed or ignored.
I really, really can't wrap my fucking head around what a frame is. I don't understand how electric or light pulses are transformed into porn videos. It feels like magic that video games are arrangements of matter.
Please please please help me understand. What books must I read to really grasp what the fuck is going on?

>>101320626
The OSI model is basically a parallel universe to describe networking and you can learn how a computer works without ever touching networking. Computer memory works in a completely different arena. Videos are encoded using compression algorithms and video games use mathematical abstractions as clever tricks to make geometrical shapes appear on the screen. You're going to have to start smaller. Try learning the basics of networking and the basics of programming, there is almost no overlap at first but eventually there will be once you get past the basics.

Well they think I can fix anything and they know I like building stuff, plus I wanted a Xbox 360. So I think they each thought it was a great gift idea as they figured I would have fun fixing one so I can play it. Like a puzzle you can play Halo on when you're done. However what they don't get is that most of my fixes are actually very simple, as above average tech skill is not that great if the average tech people know is very low. Also I've never done soldering and the software support for Xbox 360 is not great compared to what I usually work with, so it is going to take more effort to fix these than I care to put in which is why I just bought a working one myself and just did a basic touch up.

Part of me is tempered to show them the nice black Elite S version I got and just play up video game crafting logic, 12 broken old Xboxs plus with a worktable gives you a new Xbox Elite S just to see how many of them actually believe it, I fear some of them might fall for it.

All of computing is built upon the principle of abstraction. Your NIC might use light, electricity, or radio waves but it's all just bits as far as your operating system is concerned.

The networking stack in your operating system takes those bits and directs them to the correct destinations. The ethernet frame header contains information about which NIC the data is going to/from, while the IP packet header has information about which networked computer it's going to/from, and the TCP packet header has information about which application it's going to/from.

Not that anon but can you explain what "abstractions" means in this context? I don't quite get it.
>>
>>101323695
Abstraction is when unimportant details of a complex system are filtered out so only the important ones remain.

You might have data on an optical CD, a magnetic hard disk or an electronic SSD. All of them present their data as a sequence of bits, which is an abstraction of how it's physically stored. That abstraction allows a program to interact with data on any medium.

Autistic enough that I want you to clarify on what the differences would be.

Do all or most games support that sort of scaling via their in game resolution menu? or would I need to actually change the monitor's display resolution in windows or whatever to get integer scaling?

>>101324498
>Autistic enough that I want you to clarify on what the differences would be.
You can sit close enough to a 1080p monitor to see physical pixels. This is much harder on a 4k monitor.
It's mostly an issue that comes up in discussions about VR headsets, which are right in front of your eyes. Unlikely to matter for a monitor at normal viewing distance, but it would be a lie to not mention it at all.
>Do all or most games support that sort of scaling via their in game resolution menu? or would I need to actually change the monitor's display resolution in windows or whatever to get integer scaling?
Your GPU control panel controls this setting. You can select whether to let your monitor or GPU upscale sub-native resolutions. If you select GPU, then integer scaling will be available as one of the upscaling methods. Once this is set to integer scaling, you can simply set 1080p or 720p ingame to enjoy razor sharp pixels.

I have to buy a new laptop.
Is a 3060 a better option than a 4050?
From what I've read 3060 has the better raw performance between the two but the 4050 has dlss 3 and fg but I'm not sure how important those two things are.
From what I've read they help some games run faster but that's it.

Laptops are a different story to desktops, they often use different silicon and memory configurations than the desktop versions and the power profiles are completely different anyway.
Mobile 4050 has 4GB VRAM which is seriously limiting. But 4000 series is much more efficient than 3000 series, which can make a big difference in a laptop. The specific laptop model also determines how much cooling and power it gets, which again is important. It's difficult to say, is what I'm getting at.

AMD CPUs are definitely good, especially in laptops because they tend to be more power efficient, but you should triple check the model to make sure you aren't getting jewed with an older CPU.

That narrows the difference then. Look up benchmarks, but I expect it'll be a tossup.
>Does power efficiency even matter if I never take my laptop outside and keep it plugged in whenever I use it?
It matters because a laptop has limits on how much power it can supply and how much heat it can dissipate.

The simplest way would probably be a network share which works between Windows machines. Setting it up takes like 5 minutes using windows explorer - read a short tutorial.
If one or more of the machines is linux-based then you will want to use Samba on the linux machines in order to connect to the windows machines. If they're all linux-based, you may want to use NFS instead of SMB (Samba).

To a certain extent that kind of behavior really discourages making an effort when you post but doesn't discourage other shit posters. Other times people act that way actually hoping someone would tell them to stop because that would offer evidence that maybe everyone isn't a horrible asshole motivated only by spite after all. But this site has always been a place where people can go even if all they've ever known was that everyone hated them, and knowing something like that doesn't make anyone pleasant. I don't however think it's been quite so sharp a rise, more like some days are way worse than others and you don't always know how it is if you go somewhere else for a while. But let's not pretend everything hasn't been getting more confrontational gradually over time as politics becomes religion and people keep trying to outdo themselves and each other in piety, and as most greater purposes lose legitimacy and respect and economic sense (depending on who you are, which causes no small amount of the conflict), all that remains as something that matters is victory and conquest. All this from careful direction and poor biased moderation of decades of online arguments that cause their participants to bear grudges forever as the dangers real and imagined show no signs of passing.
Basically, it's worse because the mainstream media wants everyone and everything to get worse.

I'm buying the laptop to learn programming, including AI related stuff. The 3060 has 50% more CUDA and Tensor cores than the 4050, which I've read are important for AI. It also has more than double the memory bus width than the latter.
Is a 3060 with just 6GB VRAM too potato for anything AI related? I don't care much about stable diffusion which I know requires a lot of VRAM, I'm more interested in learning the programming aspects of AI and creating software related to it instead of generating images.
If a 3060 even with more CUDA and tensor cores is not enough for anything AI related, I think I'm just better off getting the 4050 because even though it has lower performance, with a 4050 laptop you get a better CPU and it's more power efficient so I think it's worth it in the end.
What do you think?

I've just got fiber with a new ISP and a new router, the router is the ISP brand. I don't really know anything about setting up custom routers with OpenBSD, maybe in the future. But anyways, what do you suggest I should do (like in the router settings for example) before I use it with my computer? Is it even safe to use routers' stock firmware, or do they have any privacy issues? DHCPCD should automatically configure resolv.conf to use the ISP's DNS, which is fine (I use Tor a lot anyways, so that's mostly irrelevant for me).

>need to reinstall Windows
>10 or jump to 11 now?

Reasons to stick with 10 for now
>less shit in terms of UI and general anti-user hostility
>from what I'm reading, half the people say on top of bad design, 11 is extremely buggy. Slow, frequent crashes etc. Explorer is slow, start menu search is slow. The other half say it's ok. Don't know who to believe. (I have capable 2024 hardware, not a toaster)
>11 is more botnet, and full of more shit 'features', like Co-pilot and Recall
Reasons to go with 11
>I'll eventually have to go with 11 sooner or later, regardless of exactly when
>absolutely hate setting it up from scratch each time - OS settings, drivers, programs, program settings, migrate existing profiles over, bring other data over, all the other little things. Takes a whole fucking day. Really don't want to do it more times than I absolutely have to

I do adhere to the general /g/ concept of Common Sense first, but I am not glued to IT security news websites every day, I probably won't catch wind of the latest 0-days straight away.
>maybe 11 is a surer bet for my new hardware, 10 might not have drivers for some things, might run into problems down the line?

I'm leaning towards 11 just because of general safety, but and worried about bugginess and abhorent UI+UX.

So give it to me straight, how bad is the 11 UI? How buggy is 11? Realistcally how long after the Oct 2025 EOL can I keep using 10 relatively safely for (keeping in mind I do a lot of internet banking)?
Or, just to put it simply...10 or 11? (Pro or Edu or whatever. I'm not gong with LTSC or IoT LTSC because...reasons, prease understand)

I looked for something better for emulators than my old and tired Intel Core i5-5200U (CPU Mark Single Thread Rating 1499, typical TDP 15 W) and the best single thread performance available is from the Intel Core i9-14900KS (CPU Mark Single Thread Rating 1499, typical TDP 150 W and TDP up 253 W).

figure out how long extra after switching the alarm off do you go back to sleep for.
then set your aarm for x hours earlier than you actually need to get up the next day.
e.g. if you have a tendency to snooze an extra 3 hours, and you want to get up at 8, set your inital alarm for 5.

put the alarm on the other sde of the rom so you have to get up. use and old school mechanical one. dont use your phone.

also at 8 when you get up to switch that damn racket off, try and sit down in a big comfy armchar nstead of actually laying back down in bed. slouch if you want, drape your duvet over yourself, keep your eyes closed if you want. but dont get back into bed under the duvet, its game over then. even if you slouch on the char with duvet on and eyes closed, your body will still start to wake up just because youre kinda upright. then in 5-10 mins itll actually be quite easy to stand up and start your day.

If I plug in my USB-A to USB-C charger for my headphones, the headphones indicator lights up red, indicating that it is charging.

When I plug in a USB-C charger (from an electrical outlet), the headphones' indicator does not light up. Is it possible that the USB-C charger is not charging it? If yes why? Or is it just because... the indicator is not working? Like it's only working if it detects that it's connected to a device that can use the headphones?

Why does Google search always reset my location to my IPs location when I switch from Japanese IPs to non Japanese? Could be some other non EU regions but I noticed it specifically there. Doesn't matter if I just go back to my actual IP or switch to another European IP. It resets my location to that country, instead of the country I had chosen (Israel, if that matters) in the search settings. Doesn't do it with YouTube's country. The language settings also get reset, but only when it's the first time being associated with said country, if I change the language to English, it stays English, but the location keeps switching back to whatever country I switched to from Japan.

>I want to whitelist only 2 websites and block everything else for some workers

Figure out what those websites translate to in the context of firewall rules.
I'll just decide at this point we are going to treat those "sites" as IP-addresses. Either individual addresses, blocks or ranges.
Solution: use those IPs in your whitelist.
>and block everything else for some workers
>for some workers
How do you identify a worker? From the MAC addresses of their computers?
Yes, you can do that.

also, if you plan on hooking it up to your house circuit, make sure you never ever have the generator hooked up while the main house breaker/switch is on. also keep in mind hooking a generator up to a house without the appropriate safety equipment may be illegal where you live

I've just got fiber with a new ISP and a new router, the router is the ISP brand. I don't really know anything about setting up custom routers with OpenBSD, maybe in the future. But anyways, what do you suggest I should do (like in the router settings for example) before I use it with my computer? Is it even safe to use routers' stock firmware, or do they have any privacy issues? DHCPCD should automatically configure resolv.conf to use the ISP's DNS, which is fine (I use Tor a lot anyways, so that's mostly irrelevant for me).

it's like the mouse becomes disconnected for about half a second, maybe a full second at most. sometimes it happens once a minute other times once every couple of minutes. the intermittentness of it makes it hard to diagnose.

A power plant using coal loses value from the work that they did if they don't capture their pollution.
A artist using art loses value from their work if they don't prevent people from spamming csam.
The situation is exactly the same. Artists are directly responsible for the csam spam, hence they should be held liable, as a class.

Okay, so the perceptual hashing doesn't actually have the ability to generate porn from it, although you can generate non pornographic images from it that still have the same perceptual hash as whatever hash you fed into it.
People making very bad images with Stable Diffusion are using drawings that people were already making and/or photos used to train models and LORAs.
Artists are complaining because they're worried that their work isn't worth as much as it used to be, not because anyone is using software to make very bad images. They just want the technology to stop being available however they can.
"data poisoning" tools also don't really work at keeping an image from being used as training material (certainly not when Adobe says they now own whatever you make in their software because you kept trying to push copyright farther and farther to stop the tech from being available), I really doubt they're going to useful at making very bad images undetectable by perceptual hashing.
Also those spammers are the government who do it to create an excuse to take down anything they don't like as well as provide the threat you need protection from in the protection racket they've set up between themselves and Microsoft.
Artists are useful idiots.

TFW you accidentally hit open and then have to stay up late to figure out what happened or why it did that. QuickTime is buggy that's why. For some reason setting MP3 files to always open with QuickTime sets off Gatekeeper. Maybe the way Bandcamp encodes their MP3 files messes up the headers and then setting to "Always open with QuickTime" trips the red flags. Had to test it on a known safe MP3 file because the first one I tested it on was from a super obscure artist and I thought he had included malware in his song as a part of the art. Not that macOS viruses are even feasible in most cases, let alone through an MP3 file. #JustSchizoThings
