I've gotten the ASUS BW-16D1HT. Came in a box like picrel with some useless software keys bundled in, manufactured in 2024. You can flash it with RibShark firmware that allows for both ripping BD-XL disks as well as do Redump quality backups of CD's.

It's not the best there is, the best drives were Pioneer, but they moved out of the market and only certain models had the right firmware that allowed you to rip shit, and they were only available in the US so European prices were bad enough before they ended production.

I'd say a BW-16D1HT is your best bet for a well priced 5.25" BD ODD that can archive shit. I got mine with that in mind, and the fact that my old LG DVD drive was fucked from the factory and had issues reading CD's and DVD's. This one rips through everything no prob.

Why "phase", most GPUs are still way too loud at full power, it's not like the use case for upgraded fans has disappeared.

>>107585763
Thanks, I really should order one before ODDs disappear completely.
>>
>>107585794
There'll always be the second hand market if the push comes to shove. Though I think I'm set for now, 64GB of RAM, BD ODD, 3090, maybe swap the 12400 with a 12900 at some point. Or upgrade to AM5 once the next price window comes around, but a used 12900 is always an option.

>maybe dumbass manufactuers have too much of a boner for "muh aesthetics" so they need custom designed fans and shrouds.
That's literally the reason. AIBs need a way to distinguish their card from the competitors. Sacrificing cooling efficiency for aesthetics is part of the equation.

I think the trial was a one time thing and I've already used it back when NBP was launched. GPT 1.5 is actually perfectly usable on lmarena today, even if you don't have almost two dozens of alternative OAI accounts, it's NBP that is being a pain. Things are getting much better now though, probably because of time zones...

I've not seen that cartoon to be honest, I had to catch up. Not a great fan of turning into an external entity what is essentially a human phenomenon (i.e. externalisation). But I guess it might be psychologically more desirable for mass-media than indicting people directly, though. It's one thing that emerged in the last few years, between many others; people don't like self-flagellation, on the whole.

I got three offers all at the same time, not sure which one to take.
$430k per year with $100k signing bonus
$350k per year, no bonus but I get equity.
$675 per hour with unpaid overtime but it is a temp-to-perm role with 6 month contract.

Which job offer should I take, or should I stay in my current position which is programming embedded devices for AI robots; it was a cool job for a while but I'm getting bored and only making $270k per year.

Time to move away from legacy technologies like hammers and screwdrivers, and move to a modern technology of a big purple dildo.
Big, floppy dildo made out of latex is an inherently safer tool.
There is a safety issue in legacy technology as many in the community often stick the tools up their asses, so its better to have this "user safety" feature, legacy tech can cause internal damage and if you are going to accidentally stick your tools up your ass anyway, why shouldn't it be a big, purple, veined dildo at that point? It only makes sense.

If you don't want to use a big floppy purple dildo to hammer your nails and screw your screws, you are a bigot and just afraid of change.
Besides, we are not introducing this change as a fork that you can switch to if you want, we are taking over the original project and forcing everyone to use floppy latex dildos from here onwards.

I've said this in other threads, but I'll say it here too - Trannies don't live in anybody's head rent free. They kick the door to your head down and shit on the carpet. They put themselves everywhere until there is nowhere left to enjoy. I joined a Metroid discord because I was excited about Metroid Dread and wanted to see what people were talking about. There was maybe one person talking about Metroid. Everyone else was congratulating this "egg" that just "came out" as trans in the Metroid Lore discussion channel. I tried to talk about how cool it was that the pirates kept Metroids in Phendrana Drifts because its cold environment prevented them from escaping. I was banned for off topic posting. I tried to watch AGDQ last night. One of the commentators was a man, with a man voice, with a hololive avatar instead of a face, whose pronouns were listed as fae/faer. These fucking people do not leave you, your space, or your thoughts alone. If you try to have a discussion without them, they insist on making it about them. I can't even click a YouTube video anymore without some faggot putting on a fake girl voice and trying to act like a cute anime retard. It's painful. It's dishonest and inauthentic. It is also an act of aggression. If you can't recognize that, I don't know what to tell you.
>>
>>107586051
Lying is aggressive. The entire trans movement is dripping with dishonesty. When you tell me to refer to you as "she/her" you are telling me to see a woman when I look at you. I don't. I see your receding hairline, I see your broad shoulders, I see your thin hips, I see your gut and sinking cheeks and wide stubble, I see your fashion sense that reeks of male sensibilities, I see your taste in anime that reeks of somebody with a porn addiction, I see your imitation based on what men find attractive, but more than this I see male aggression. I see the demand to dominate. I see acts of assertion and imperialist reeducation. You demand that I tell you 2+2=5 and when I refuse you become angry, aggressive, and seek my removal or destruction. You are bullies who want to assert yourselves over others but have no field in which you're competitive except in social manipulation. You demand female spaces, you demand female aesthetics, you even demand the female label. You take even this from the women from which you wish you could take love and acceptance. You have gone beyond incel. You have entered into thievery and barbarism. Pastiche. Fraud. Imitation. Ersatz. You are dishonest, inauthentic, and aggressive. You are not, will never, can never, and should never be a woman. You are the aggressor in every space, turning the conversation towards your hatred of the penis and leg hair, towards your lust for the female. Your insistence on being called a woman is your demand to be given the girlfriend you were denied through your roleplaying as that imaginary woman. You are your father's son, and that is how you will die.
