all the hype around the SM diedlmao
>>107883269>Huh, no one will buy this unless it's $50 and it includes a girlfriend. DOA.This is probably going to be as cheap or cheaper than a pre-built at the same spec, plus it comes with controllers.
>>107883277Well I don't know the specifics of the deal as clearly as you seem to. But depending on the type of deal you're making you might not necessarily make a deal directly with a RAM manufacturer. You might make a deal with a futures trader that's already ordered the chips years in advance.
buddy i refresh the catalog here, on /v/ and on reddit each and every day waiting for any news on this thing, rest assured the hype has not died
>>107883103>let's charge twice as much for a budget gaming PCNigger even before the RAM and SSD prices skyrocketed this thing was not worth more than $700.>>107883291>$1000Multiple leaks confirm it's going to be $650-$750.
Valve hit a home run with the Deck. They should be focusing on ways to optimize the deck for a better on TV experience, like an actual dock instead of wasting time on another Artifact 2
If you didn't buy a Blu-Ray drive to rip things before 2024/2025, you fucked up. Prices have gone up 200%, the end of production is here, and you will no longer own this for anything less than 200 dollars if you can find it in stock.
>>107880712I bought an LG Blu-ray drive 8 years ago. Its DVD laser is already dead and I don't expect the BD one to be alive either.Optical drives are a scam. Their lens degrade over time even if completely unused.Oh, I also have a slim DVD burner pulled from a laptop, it is 10 years old and also stopped reading discs.
>>107884067>Its DVD laser is already dead and I don't expect the BD one to be alive either.>Optical drives are a scam. Their lens degrade over time even if completely unused.huh? what company and model?I think it's extremely rare.Clankers say: What fails in an optical drive? Laser diode slowly weakens over time (even when unused, but very slowly). Spindle motor and tray motor wear with use. Lens alignment can drift with heat, shock, or age.Comment too long.

I just downloaded Linux for the first time to get away from Windows bloatware and I had to input 7 commands in the command line to install ProtonVPN including one to download a separate program that allows system tray icons.... is this really the best we have? On Windows and MacOS I just hit install and it installs....
at this point just buy old macbook that will work with big sur [yes, it's after a year of upgrades, it's good now] and use it with windows bootcamp, don't waste time on this shitty meme shitux
I don't give a fuck about the way you install programs on linux.I want Plasma to look like Snow Leopard

I recently had a funny interaction, i took a piss at a starbucks and didn't buy anything. There's two indians wearing jackets and sandals in 55 degree weather drinking coffee outside using ridiculously oversized android tablets, speaking some impenetrable hindu gobbedygook with "14 inch" "amoled" "galaxy" peppered through. They see this meme phone in my hand and they're too polite or illiterate to say anything to me about it but it's obvious that they're gawking at it. Not in a jealous way, in a mocking way.But they're indians holding comically oversized tablets outside of a starbucks. It dawned on me that their society is built on caste based elitism so they think that holding an even bigger and more expensive ipad makes them look successful. But they just look like stereotypical third worlders, some white guy with a cheap blackberry clone completely shatters that illusionThank you for coming to my ted talk.
>>107881333I want a sidekick but modern. I would use my smartphone horizontally more, but when I type keyboard covers most of the screen.
>>107881608This. Remember how slim this phone was? It was perfect.
>>107883413thanks for the response.>keyboard software is shitThat really is unfortunate to hear. I decided to not do the KS because of how nasty it looked but I still want qwerty very badly. However if it doesn't work right, what is the fucking point?Did you see they are releasing another keeb phone this year?I need a new phone but I am wondering if I should rough it out even longer.
>>107881333The Droid4 was my first smartphone and still my favorite.

What is your least favorite thing about modern refrigerators? I will be moving from where my parents raised me in a few years, and I might have to buy one. My mom might also want to buy a new one because her ice machine is broken. Any recommendations?
>>107883160it's just a couple fans, you can easily repair that and it really helps to cool things down quickly, many industrial fridges have them since decades agothe bad part is anything smart
bring your old fridge, new ones use variable speed compressors to reduce energy usage to comply with energy star. this means theyll be running 90% of the time making noise n shit. fuck efficiency its a scam and climate change is a scam

Recently I found out that WD now has blue drives that go up to 8 TB, is there any reason why I shouldn't use these over red drives? I've been using 8 TB red drives for my "server" (while it is a data hoarding machine, I don't have anything set up on it like Samba for easy access into it from a network like a proper server) mainly because of their capacity, but since it's something that I mainly use as cold storage I don't really need the optimizations red drives have for continuous use, plus I imagine the way I've been using this data hoarding machine (shutting it down after I'm done getting stuff from it) is probably bad for red drives.
>>107884034If it's for cold storage it should be fine. It's what they put in some of their externals. Others being the reds. I can't remember which are blues and which are reds. Either way I just bought another Seagate external for cold storage myself.>is probably bad for red drives.Kinda but it's more of a nitpicky thing. And that's really only if it's very frequent, like every day.Just make sure to boot them every so often to check out they're doing. Make sure they still work and all.

Nvidia drivers are still terrible in 2026 and in fact worse than 2025.
>>107881688Last good ones were the signed version of Forceware 94.94. It became a race to the bottom after that.
>>107883707hurr hurr
>>107881899This is true. The main issue comes with the fact that Nvidia drivers were top quality until they went full greed-mode and diverted all attention to AI shit. Since then quality has suffered.They abandoned the demographic that supported them the most.

Is there something like NixOS but for chuds?
>>107877908That's fucking right, anon. They're using server farm config files to set up their one shitty laptop like a bunch of stupid assholes and don't you let them forget it. How do I favorite this post? Where's the heart icon?
>anon asks for a detr00nified NixOS>everyone starts saying "nix is ~le bad"Are you a fucking retard or what? If you hate Nix and Guix that much then just ignore the thread. Is it really that hard? If your IQ is so low you can't really see the value of using something like Nix/Guix instead of a shitty package manager like vcpkg/conan just kill yourself already, you're beyond help at this point.
>>107881360Well the answer is to wait for bootc to mature some more for desktop use, but until then we can just make fun of nix.
>try to run my bootstrap script on NixOS>error command not foundlmao you have to import the retard tier PATH or nothing works, only troons would think it's good design

It's really funny to see programmers crying about losing ground to AI. Actually, it's not just funny, it's also ironic. Have you ever stopped to think about the many professions that programmers have helped to destroy? Have you ever stopped to think about how many jobs have been automated in recent decades? That's right, there were people who genuinely enjoyed being radio actors, typists, telephone operators, etc. But because of the programs created by programmers, these people had to adapt, others had to completely change professions to survive. Now, after so many decades of destroying other people's jobs, you want to stop the advancement of AI? And it's no use saying that "new professions will emerge" it doesn't matter. Just as you enjoy programming, there were people who enjoyed the job of typist.You're not special. You're just the average low IQ nigger cattle.
