Paid $375 for these. Did I get ripped off?
>>106870831Anon I hate to tell you this but you could have spent $200 for a Lenovo or Dell SFF shitbox and spent the extra $100 for a beefier GPU if you're aiming for low to mid gaming.Here's one with on older i7, 32gb RAM, 1TB SSD + 2TB HDD, and an old GT1030 for $360 https://a.co/d/3eCAZkb and if you wanted to get real creative try to get one of these bad boys 3D printed https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6900555 it will free up internal space so you can get a much longer low profile GPU in there.Anyways not trying to make you have buyer's remorse but I would definitely cancel that order if you can and try to get a little more creative about your build. No shame in having a poorfag build, I had one for ages and still did badass shit on it but don't let yourself get ripped off so early.
>>106870831>>106871271Another example would be this Dell Optiplex https://a.co/d/c6MRULB and this low profile RTX 3050 https://a.co/d/ejVSiDu though the Optiplex doesn't get the full GDDR6 speed and preformance and needs a RAM upgrade it still would be a lot beefier

>>106871334You are vastly overpaying for your ewaste. Don't use ebay.

I just want to use nixos without all the tranny drama. At this point if anduril jumps ship I'm going to whatever they end up using, even if it's (((guix)))
>>106869202What did you expect from a tranny distro?
>>106869276All troons in software are political saboteurs and they always try to take over projects through these antics
>>106869202Nigger.You're the reason that we don't have the multithreaded evaluator in mainline Nix.
>>106869202The silver lining to all this is that we live in a time when the most selfish and evil people are making lifestyle and fashion choices that mark them like a brand for everyone to see

This is the best linux distro>stable compared to windows 10>just werks with the latest software and drivers>best package manager on linux to date>minimal bloat, just what you want and nothing else>got a problem? use timeshift There's nothing else to use and its relatively easy to insall.Let me say this, linux is different than windows but the install is no more difficult vs windows 10's install.Just use fucking arch
>>106870695In the linux world, "stable" means all your packages are out of date, "unstable" means your packages are new.In the OC world "stable" means your PC works well, "unstable" means your PC crashes.
archinstall and archiso derivatives were the worst thing to happen to arch. 95% of the community are shitters and troons.
>>106870877>muh gated communitythere is always gentoo :^)
>>106870877Just don't use them, nobody's making youInstalling Arch is trivial using the guide
The only thing that ever made Arch cool was you had to do it yourself and you could be proud to run itNow it's a baby distro, Arch = Ubuntu baby distro for retardsit's too easy to installget a real distro that's hard and I'll give you props mintbaby

This seems like a good deal, should I go for it?
>>106871659typically popular ssds like samsung 980 are cheap enough that theres no reason not to buy those
>>106871659If you like Phison E21T go for it.
>>106871666But it's almost twice as much.>>106871674Don't know what that is, I just need a cheap place to store pics and other non essential stuff. Figured a 1-2tb drive would do it. Would like to spend less than a hundred dollars.
>>106871679wait for sales period and buy of those top 3 most recommended nvme'sits prob like 130$ for 2tb

where do i buy an RCA to HDMI cable and a samsung tv remote for cheap?walmart.com has both those items for $3ea but i cant order them to a store.the recycling bin in front of best buy used to have that stuff for free, just dig around, but they removed those.target or bestbuy will prob sell them for like $10 - $20 ea.suggestions?god this samsung TV fucking sucks.just one hmdi port in the rear and a single button on the tv that only turns the tv on and not off. wtf.
I have a bunch of torrents (mostly ebooks, movies/audiovideo media, and music). If I run Norton on my external hard drive, it should be okay to plug into my computer, right? It's a new computer and I don't want to fuck it up. No executables or that shit.
>>106871232I think you can disable autorun from external media in system settings, generally a good setting to leave off anyway since I think it's a big security risk
battlestation thread. $5 fill ups edition
>>106868259Still got the PS2, but I'm primarily using the bigger CRT in my bedroom with it now. It was a $5 trash pick from a secondhand/salvage store, but it does look surprisingly good for being a literally-who brand (Apparently Advent was a label used by Best Buy in the early/mid-2000s) and has onboard S-video and component video inputs, with my PS2 hooked up to the latter.And yes, my phone's camera sucks absolute shitholes when it comes to low lighting and extreme lighting differences.
>>106870780After the trinitron patents expired, there were several TV makers that put out some decent sets.
>>106870974True. It was also a huge boon for PC monitors, in that short window of time left where CRTs were still the preferable PC display tech outside of space/weight. Not sure if my Advent is a Trinitron clone or not in any case, all I know is that it was apparently a cheapo brand even back in the day (seemingly always bundled with DVD players). My set was made in late 2005, which I gather is close to the last hurrah for decent consumer CRTs.

Tell me about air purifying technology.If I'm on a low budget, should I get some cheap chinese shit or go for a DIY variant?
>>106863820increase airflow by using 2" or 4" filters instead of 1"also use more filters

Also it takes about 6 months minimum to weed out crazy bitches and other misfits.Hang around, get to know her, stay in character (don't be some zany autist or edgelord. be polite and reserved). Make a move when it feels natural and flows well. Or don't.
