>>110277013I was the child that thought pressing/unpressing the turbo button would make it go faster. Luckily, I didn't break it.
why is everything soulless slop now
>>110277308Because people have no souls
>>110277305kek. same herei think all of us who had a computer with a turbo button in the proto-internet era did
vintage: old stuff being soulfvl againretro: new stuff mimicking old stuff often without the soulfvl factor>know the difference
>>110277305Nah that was the voltage switch.>twice the power, twice the performance!
>>110277013So this is the case they based the FLP02 on
I found one of these at a thrift store for $8 and its neat as fuckNo idea if it works though, had to order a charger
>>110277467ai slop: anti-sovl
>>110277882oh certainly it's AI, but that one is not slop. just look at it.
>>110277013>slower than some cpus from 2004
>>110277986It's all slop and will always be slop. Stop trying to change the narrative.You lost.

played a lot of snes games i missed out on with one of these on an emachines and some probably terribly innacurate early version of snes9x.my back hurts
>>110277285SEXO
>>110278234I love retro PC controllers.
>>110277879My parents had a NEC one that they used when they traveled. I used it a couple times as it had a cellular modem or something for internet. Before YouTube, it was reasonable to say you could use it as a normal computer. I don't know if ms office was available on CE or not.
>>110277013How feasible would it be to put modern hardware into a case like this and use it as a daily driver? My guess is the thermals will make this idea infeasible, but maybe someone else knows more
>>110277467ai slop always looks so retarded, it's such a bad simulacrum of reality
>>110278366Perfectly feasible. Thermals are overrated, in turn you get more silent idle
>>110277305iirc it did make it go faster, if the computer was capable. Back in the day all CPUs were the same speed, I think like 33 mhz or some shit like that. So games and programs ran expecting that speed. Newer CPUs came out that were like 60 and 90 mhz and it would break some programs, especially games. Turning turbo off made it run the old school speed for compatibility and turning it on made it run its designed speed. but iirc most computers w a turbo button didn't have a newer CPUs that could go faster so it did nothing in most computers. Don't remember why newer computers with faster CPUs ditched the turbo button. I was really young when computers had turbo buttons so I could be making stuff up
>>110278375so find an image like that, that gives a similar feel, that isn't AI. bonus points for digital scan of film camera.
How long would it take to build something like this but with working buttons and a keyboard as a part of the setup? Took this dude 3 weeks for this
>>110278345This one should have Windows 2000 on it if the HDD didn't die
>>110278488I appreciate how he used wood instead of wasting time in a prototyping loop with CAD and plastic extrusion.
>>110278456turning it off dropped 286/386/486 chip speeds back down to the original 8086 chip speed of 4.77MHz so that original IBM PC software would run normally.turbo mode went away in the pentium 1 era.
>>110278456>>110278696its the opposite, and thats the memeas a kid we didnt know better so we had it enabledi learned i was retarded a couple years ago, from an lgr video
>>110278366Depends entirely on the performance level you target. Airflow would be a problem if you don't want it to be jet-tier but with the right components you could probably get a decent compromise between performance, heat and noise.
>>110278488Shit, something like this would be amazing to have for a battlestation.
I hate how AI spam like >>110277467 forces me to carefully examine novel creations like >>110278488 before allowing myself to acknowledge them in any way.Takes out all the little joy there was left to the internet. And knowing everyone else will treat my creations with suspicion before proven innocent definitely doesn't motivate me to continue creating stuff either.God I hate this timeline.And the worst thing is there's no putting the toothpaste back in the tube, all of humanity from this point onwards will have to cope with this. Joy of creation has permanently been devalued. I'm so sick of it all
>>110279588nothing is ever good enough for anons like you
