How is this not the standard? I haven't seen the cash registers manned even at peak store hours in over 10 years

>>106516153
As I am not a mentally handicapped socially inept person, I prefer to have a fellow human to scan my items. Its faster. I put my groceries on the counter, they scan it and I finish sooner.

is it true that in glorious nippon they have wireless, automatic self checkout?

>>106516153
they are the standard
I still prefer the cashier if I can but there's typically only one available with a line of like 10 people, then one or two people watching over the 10 self check outs

These came up in a conversation IRL about a year ago. Apparently older, polite suburbanites get REALLY annoyed when there's a weight mismatch and the machine asks if they want to call the attendant.
Based on the convo, they were so duped by the technology that they thought it was some advanced AI, and furthermore thought that it was accusing them of a crime. The machine either (a) mismeasured a weight, or (b) has a timer, and is offering to help so that they don't hold up the line like a putz. I didn't know how to politely tell them that they are morons for anthropomorphizing an overgrown bathroom scale. It's like being offended by a pocket calculator.

If it bitches about the weight?
Pick up the item, place it in again, jiggle the bag. It will re-calculate and shut up.
Something doesn't scan?
Enter the UPC in the PLU menu.
That's all the assistant is going to do, and I'm faster than them anyway.

isnt NVRAM on macs like so small that its used for like volune, display resolution and other meaningless system related tasks i could give a fuck about.

Intel was working on making NVRAM in hopes of replacing DRAM as main memory but ended up giving up on project in 2022. There's no one in field actually gunning for NVRAM as a sub to DRAM currently.

>>106515302
NVRAM lets a computer shut off and continue without rebooting. Intel is tied to the main OS on their chips, Windows. And that's the OS that would benefit the least from a technology that doesn't need reboots.

>>106515523
PCs store UEFI settings in either battery backed RAM or flash, same as Macs do. Mac just calls it NVRAM since battery backed RAM is a type of NVRAM, just not the type being discussed here. They've also called it PRAM in the past. PCs mostly call it CMOS, after the technology the little static RAM chip it was once stored in was made with.

The discussion here is about other types of memory that read and write individual bytes fast and in unlimited cycles like RAM, but retain data when powered off like flash. Idea being if you used that instead of RAM, the machine could power off completely and then the OS could pick back up where it left off, as if it was suspended instead. And if you also replaced the disk with more of the same, you could have everything in one big address space and never have to wait for a file to load into RAM.

>>106517128
why are reboots bad for windows?>>106517178
It seems like intel ended up giving up on it though they had billions of dollars going towards finding a successful candidate that would work but stopped suddenly in 2022 with no explicit reason?

>>106517201
My point was that if your platform's main OS requires frequent reboots because of how the software is designed, a hardware technology for avoiding reboots is less useful. Meanwhile if you had an OS that can run stably for years and apply patches to the running kernel and libraries in RAM, and most reboots happened because of power failures or random bit flips in RAM, a more reliable memory technology that retains data without power would be very useful.

She's in Club Fed with Ghislaine Maxwell

>>106516784
Yeah I know him.
In high school he was pretty funny and wanted to be a comedian. He always did this skit about 9/11 because his name was Hussein and it was still a big thing at that time (mid 2000s)
Used to go to his house and play Halo 1. On his Xbox. I remember his parents were pretty loaded. At some point after high school he bought a coffee shop in elk Grove But I guess now he's claiming he founded it. But I totally remember it was there already and it was kind of the local high school hangout spot

>>106516784
I actually saw the clothing shop that apparently this dude owns and embezzles money from last time I was in Sacramento. I had no idea it was his, it doesn't even look like a charity. It looks like some sort of trendy secondhand clothing shop or something in a nice area of midtown

I love my HD800S. I've worn them for about 8 hours everyday since I bought them January 2016. Got my money out of them. They sound sublime. The pads wear way way way too fast. I replace them 2-3 times a year. Luckily I have a source that is cheap and stockpiled numerous pads. I do fully strip them twice a year, clean and rebuild since the screws like to walk out after 8-ish months of regular use. I would cry if they died and I have no idea what I would get to replace them. Probably the same headphone sadly, and they're much more expensive now than the 1350 I paid for them. Tube amps are meh though. I much prefer solid state. I just use a Schiit Jotunheim 2 with a true multibit dac module and balanced cable. Also the Sennheiser brand cables like to disintegrate after about a year. But I found a nice 3rd party balanced cable that is holding up much better by Cardas.
>>106517233
The HD600 and HD650 are fine, but the AckDrop HD6XX is icky.
>>106517240
I've never had a problem. They're what I use at work. HD800S for home. The HD560S is the BEST headphone you can buy under 200 and it regularly goes for 130US which is what I bought it for.
>>106517218
Genuinely the HD6XX might be the worst sounding headphone I've ever used in my life. Luckily my wife finally gave in and decided to try the Hifiman Edition XS and she loves them so the sinful abomination that is the AckDrop HD6XX lives in the eWaste pile in our closet.

>>106517369
>I've never had a problem.
LOL you have small ears. Imagine being an audiophile and losing the genetic lottery like that.
Nah but seriously, its a pretty common complaint about the Senn HD500 series.

>>106517377
I don't tho. I have an XL skull and large ears. I can't wear ANYTHING by Fostex without it hurting (which is fine because their beautiful looking headphones sound like trash). I was fooled into buying some tho and they sound as bad as they feel to wear. Had to return the Sony XM5 wireless headphones because they hurt my ears too much. Needed something with good ANC and call quality since I work in a datacenter.

Gotta have something to fight for that's bigger than yourself, bro.

stay away from amazon and ebay, and you'll miss most of those counterfeit and used-as-new drives.

>>106516170
Selling used drives as new.
They reset the SMART data but some software like Seagate's Field Accessible Reliability Metrics (FARM) might report a higher usage (unless the scammers managed to reset that too)
Here is an article in German: https://www.heise.de/news/Gebrauchte-Seagate-Festplatten-als-Neuware-im-Umlauf-10254276.html

>How would one check if the drive their own is one of these counterfeit ones?
Short answer: you can never be 100% sure.
The problem is shops get scammed themselves and don't always know theor drives are counterfeit.
But when you buy from a reputable store and you see any physical wear (like around the screw holes) or the SMART data or other diagnostics are off you should be able to return it.
