    Voice Assistants Dying, Alexa $10 Billion Loss Expected in 2022

    I got an echo, only for them to charge me for Amazon music, then after some time, then wanted 2 dollars more a month for sleep sounds... A sound file probably no bigger than 5mb, and they want 2 dollars more a month, on top of prime and music. I haven't plugged my echo since.

    Starlink Public Beta About to Happen?!?!

    Finally got mine up and running. Had to cut the cable and extend it 150 feet with cat6e, because I'm surrounded by trees. When given the choice between Att 5M dsl and starlink...

    Anyone get their Steam Deck ordered?

    Got mine yesterday. I haven't played any games on my steam library, but I have been playing around with using linux as a desktop and getting emulators working. Tbh, it's not that bad of an experience. Emudeck seems to be legit. Takes a playing with though.

    RTX 4xxx / RX 7xxx speculation

    The second hand market greatly effects retail on new gpus. On top of that, inflation is deviating non-essential spending. On top of that, Nvidia ordered more wafers than they needed, because of the mining craze. I highly doubt we will see the 4090 priced at 1500 or more. If they do, I would...

    Twitter sues Elon Musk for backing out of Twitter 44 Billion dollar deal.

    Elon is the richest person on the planet, with very expensive lawyers. SpaceX wasn't his first venture, nor was Tesla. First, he purchased a stake in the Twitter. He didn't immediately offer to buy it. Second, after making an offer, he understood what he was committing to. There were only a...

    Starlink (Generation 2) testing

    Since ATT is the only thing available, I got an itch to see what they would offer at the place I am moving. Less than 5 miles away, if I went ATT instead of starlink, I would go from 10mb for 45$ to 5mb at 55$. LULZ.

    Starlink (Generation 2) testing

    Just ordered myself. Two weeks to ship. Moving to a new place, and att is the only thing available... With the cable isp being less than 3 miles away. I have att dsl at the place I am moving from, and I would rather cut down a bunch of trees, rather than use att for internet again. 50...

    Starlink Public Beta About to Happen?!?!

    I missed where you were talked about satellite tracking and switching from non geostationary satellites.

    Starlink Public Beta About to Happen?!?!

    HF doesn't equal microwaves. Whip antennas do not equal microwave arrays. Frequencies have different lengths, which require different equipment. Antenna theory goes way past ham radio. There are reasons why. For one, starlink is not geostationary. Two, the receiver has more reception...

    Starlink Public Beta About to Happen?!?!

    Overpaid and under thinking? A receiver, is not the same as a transmitter/receiver (transceiver). A transmitter/receiver is not the same a satellite tracking transmitter/receiver. Next to military electronics, that I use to work on, I don't know of any other consumer solutions that do the...

    FT: Dr Zaber Sentry 2.0 black. WTTF: MTG Revised dual lands.

    The past 3 years have really seen a growth in commander, and a lot of older cards sky rocketed from it. I invested into it early, and my gaea's cradle I bought 4 years for 150, is now worth 1,000+. I just wish I felt more comfortable with capitalizing on my hunches, because I should have...

    FT: Dr Zaber Sentry 2.0 black. WTTF: MTG Revised dual lands.

    I feel ya. Not many people play where I live, so I mostly get to play only at a game shop, next town over. Got to own it to use it there. Also, I have also been collecting since 99, in the high school concrete magic days.

    I remember seeing a black lotus for 300 as a teenager... and no money. :(
