I got a Frog TKL and a Frog Mini.
Frog mini is probably my all time favorite keyboard.
Aluplate, Durock Lupine switches, TX-stabs, GMK MTNU keycaps.

Why is it a "thing"? Some kind of keyboard related meme? Or just a lolrandumb thing kids these days do to appear cool?

It's pretending to be self aware that you're being a twat, while doing the thing that makes you a twat in the moment anyway. Like everything else with these troons, it's about being a retard while going HAHA I WAS PRETENDING ANYWAY

>>107730103
So is it more a case of being a narcissist and wanting everyone to look at how quirky and unique you are (or if it's a "thing" that multiple people do, how well you fit into that niche), or simply being annoying on purpose because you just enjoy pissing people off?

I doubt the 3x means 3x faster overall, so I'd like this to be implemented overall for gen to test.

>>107729960
could be for some models? of course the hardware itself is roughly 2.5x less than the 4090 so you shouldn't expect miracles either

>>107729973
the board is currently undermoderated. probably busy celebrating. it'll go back to normal in a few days

I have a dream that someday all of this shit will be efficient enough to run on a shitty laptop without a second thought and I'll never have to buy another price-gouged GPU from Nvidia ever again.

>>107729473
More likely they'll be snapped up and resold by data center techs turned scalpers.

You are just witnessing the economic collapse of the USA hegemony. The USD is already fell-falling on the global market. It will not long before EU, China, Japan, SK stop taking bonds and dump their current bonds back to US.

great taste

if your gpu is literally incapable of decoding av1 or h265 then it falls on your cpu.
ryzen igpus can decode that shit.

cloud gaming is a new world order plot

>>107730010
The market takes time to respond. Don't be a coombrain child expecting the whole world to bend in an instant because you cried about voluntary transactions in market economics.

== Option 1: GPU manufacturers prioritize B2C ==
Cards remain cheap, more people continue getting into PC gaming. People play on Ultra settings. The AI industry stalls, thus perpetualizing the global trade war deadlock. Inequality, scarcity and suffering continue worldwide, and at any time countries like Russia could decide to end civilization by starting a nuclear war when one of their military operations doesn't work out.

== Option 2: GPU manufacturers prioritize B2B ==
Cards become more expensive. People can still easily get into PC gaming, but might have to lower the graphics settings from Ultra to High. Game devs have to start optimizing their games again, but they now have easy, cheap access to genius level AI that can help them, so their workload ends up being a fraction of what it would have been.
The availability of cheap compute for AI eventually kickstarts an exponential acceleration that eventually leads to the Singularity. Once it begins, concepts like inequality and scarcity fade into oblivion over a matter of months as we ascend it a more advanced state of society.

Choose.

>>107730028
The problem is that all the "manufacturers" take dies from sources that are all bound up with AI meme. That's why everything points to this shit lasting for years and why this "it will just fix itself" is not working.

>>107723190
It's almost as if all the people in the market for this generation of gpus have already acquired them.
Same shit happens to every other ecosystem when the tech outpaced the current mass produced offering.

These manufacturers don't want to produce outdated product just for another company to release another product with updated hardware. Of they aren't releasing a new iteration or updating the product to be more efficient then why bother when the only people buying are in a totally different product line.

RIP..

if you use them like monkey everything will brake, if not almost every modern planar should last, even hifimans

I'm looking for headphones that I'll be able to use for ever.
Replaceable ear pads, at a minimum.
Maybe a bridge thats made of metal or can be fixed.
I'm tired of having to buy new headphones when the most expensive parts of them work perfectly fine.

>>107729690
But what if Mr Chang handles them like a monkey before you get it in your hands

>>107729713
sennheiser hd 6xx/600/650/800
you can still find early model 600/650s from 20 years ago that work perfectly. Padding on headband is replaceable, so are the pads. Plastic overall design. HD 800 is a lot more money but it has a metal headband and obviously replaceable padding. Ironically a lot of 1k+ headphones have/had qc/design flaws but the hd 800 is still one of if not the most solid. Regardless any of those will do what you want and should last forever unless you try and break them like a monkey

>>107729233
couldn't find my model. also I'm not crafty enough to diy anyway. I'll probably end up with superglue leak on my head or something.

I know it's a joke and that it's not likely to cause any shortages but
>it's a completely different type of optical cable
Is it? These things have a range of tens of kilometres so it can't be multi-mode plastic stuff, it has to be single-mode glass fibre. If I had to bet I'd guess that the actual core and cladding are the same as the cable you would use for fibre networking, with the only difference being fewer and thinner protective layers.

>>107728776
yeah except this is completely false because i fucking bought a thinkpad x1 carbon 6th gen literally 2 months ago for 90 dollars which i'm typing to you on right fucking now. this laptop i'm shitposting on right now should not cost less than a fucking ereader.

>>107728812
>should not cost less than a fucking ereader.
How are those even comparable? People buy a new notebook every other year while an e-reader will last for over a decade with occasional recharging.

that is an ancient outdated crap by new laptop standards, my 6 year old ebook is still as good as a new one. Hell is still sold new, and possibly manufactured

>>107729543
Six years ago only a few novelty models had USB-C, now there are no Micro USB devices left on the market.
Not much of a reason to switch but one of the key changes.
Oldest devices from the main manufacturers are Kobo Sage from October 2021 and Remarkable 2 from May 2020.

>>107729657
what OS are you using?

>>107729718
i do server infra at work and its mostly luck based. i had servers refuse to boot entirely just because 1 stick of RAM went bad just slightly over a year, and also had servers running 5+ years without issues apart from HDD failures. but personally i would still go for self hosting because its more fun.

>>107730027

the CCP hasn't even succeeded at banning VPNs. Just buy it with crypto if they block your credit card. That's just a normie filter

Valid for f-droid apps as well, and although 99.9999% of them aren't audited, they're not forced to run on a google phone

>>107729761
That would be even more retarded.

>>107729791
>Google phone
It doesn't matter what kind of phone you are running it on, the result is a total google death. Besides, afaik Graphene should be available to some other phones this year or so.

Unlike Mint, I can still use Obitanium without any workarounds even though its developers long for my death.
