ohh yea I remember General Mayhem! Dang thats brings back memories. Sadly, it looks like I don't have access to that anymore. Did this move behind a pay wall?

wowzers its been a while, what's up y'all? Is there no general random chat section anymore?

Looks LCD-related to me, no GPU. Physical issues, possible internal cable. If you hook up an external monitor does it come out clear? is the mac locking up or just the screwed-up display picture? Can you targe display mode that modle? if you have a MacBook book that might be another way to...

amazon?

Matrix what number? There's only 1 I thought?

There is only one Jones movie. Just gonna leave that there. I was actually surprised but I really didn't see anything "woke" in it. I was highly highly expecting it. So that was nice. I'm interested in what people thought was "woke". In fact, if anything it called out the reality we live in...

saw the new Matrix in theaters... Can I get my money back? I came home, watched Matrix 1 to purge my memory and going forward I'm going to pretend it was the only one made. I'm thinking maybe I will never watch a sequel of anything again.

sure, whatever works. My point is to keep the 8700k it still rocks, and do whatever is cheap to upgrade son's machine. More money to buy silver with :P people are all over wasting money on overpriced trucks and computer hardware as if the dollar is not spiraling out of control.

nope.. waste of money :D Now, if you were upgrading your son's computer anyway, why not... but a better option might be just picking up another 8700k cheap..

I gave up on games in 2019. I have a MacBook now, life is good. I don’t miss it one bit. Games just are not what they used to be. Guess I’m old Long live, R6, ghost recon, BF2, BC2, early Siege, im sure a couple CODs we worth mentioning in there… CS, BF1942, Q3arena ohh boy… StarCraft!! I...

Yea, KISS for sure, I liked syncthing for that reason. Or just delete it all? haha.. I freed myself from "data" about 2 years ago and have not regretted it once. No movies, no pre-downloads apps or games, I slimmed down 19 years of photos (my kids growing up) to about 200 pics per year, so...

Sinkthing for sure, good stuff

never mind that

The docks are just not needed anymore. Originally made for iPods you were ok with leaving on a stereo or something. AirPlay and BT replace the need for audio docks, what left charging? HDMI? cable options are fine for those. I have an Apple lightning Dock with a 3.5mm jack on the back. It...

what phone? its running fine on my XS Max. What's your battery health at?

haha, some of yall think prices will go down at some point eh? good stuff.

Haha gotcha. I remember when I thought I could tell a difference sitting in my house watching a movie. But yea if it doesn’t have it at all, time for a tb3 dock

I understand this. For that a TS3 would be legit. But someone above said to slink is not multi channel?

Wait, the optical out of macs isn’t multi channel? You sure about that?

Idk, seems to be suggesting Linux or MacOS is a reasonably relitive to his question. Windows 11 is not really all that different from 10. In fact, the gui might be better (if configured) for elderly. But if there is concerns with windows 11 and MS forcing it then it sounds like an alternative...

Highly highly doubt they are different grade chip. Warranty means nothing outside of its original server it was in.

I’m not 100% on this, but I think LTSC is just the normal OS than doesn’t get features updates btw. Maybe a few windows apps missing that were easy to remove anyways. People too worked up about trash on the start menu you can remove very quickly. It’s Not like LTSB was, LTSB was great. LTSC...

No, it’s enterprise only.

Idk, I guess I do it too often. Windows reinstall is 30mins, drivers around 10mins tops. Apps, 10-20mins? I load a base set and then just install as needed. Less is more here. I suppose if one has a bunch of adobe crap, or VIsual Studio to load up it can take a while. Still I think we get way...

Say what now? I think we mean different things by disposable I mean, just clean install and start fresh, as much as needed. no biggie

:D Yes I’m aware it’s a old technique. I was doing on many many years ago. It was more of a joke, a way to make it no longer have Chinese writing on the lid that was concerning him. Wasn’t just the coolers too. The Lids themselves had high corners. Kinda cup like. Very evident when you started...

Yea SSD to SSD on the same hardware is fine. but one computer to another computer, less so.

Holy crap, I don’t even have a PC anymore at all, no intentions on building one either and I kinda want to buy that. Lmao.

Well you are doing it outside of MS design. Use MDT ;)

No kook-aid here just calling it as I see it. I see it first had at work, far far less problems on MacOS over all. When there are issues it’s almost always with a MS app. Let’s leave 2016-2017 mbp keyboards out of this :p But in my personal life I can tell you the family I have moved to MacOS...

Yea I was gonna say, isn’t Apple already the gaming winner? Just because a niche set of “elite desktop gamers” don’t use them, the majority does. Looking at Apples arm lineup, it’s only time before a MacBook Pro is outperforming most $1500 gaming PCs at their own game.

It’s just a Chinese market Intel cpu. I have see a few of them from servers we collected from global offices. China is not faking intel Xeon cpus (yet lmao) and let’s be honest, when they do start making knockoff cpus, they will be branded with the same English markings of the chips their trying...

m1 Mac mini, $700 Basic training how to get to this stuff on MacOS, 1 hr. Him never having a problem going forward, priceless

What are you using NTlite for? What’s the goal here?

Friends don’t let friends clone. Your asking for problems. Operating Systems are disposable. Do a clean install, install your apps and drivers, copy your data and enjoy. We refuse to clone at work, too many issues.

I like the new start menu, finally feels like “metro” is gone. It has some maturing to do for sure but it’s looking like a good start DirectStorage is neat. Everything else’s, who cares, it’s Windows. It doesn’t perform any different from 21H2 W10.

LTSB was sorta special and despite what some say, I found it to be the most stable Windows 10 to date, it’s just 1607 without the bloat and telemetry stuff. MS learned, and LTSC has too much crap in it, basically it’s all about support for longer on the old channel. Might as well stick to the...

2018 and Kyle is still playing with everything! Lol good on you sir.

That pretty much sums it up, no one wants desktops anymore that will allow you to turn a profit. If they are on CL or eBay they are looking for dirt cheap Honestly, I even moved away from parting out... I just build my rig once, use it as long as I can then build a new one. By the time I...

Yea, I have never found a machine running a decent SSD on SATA to be slow by any means... over 200mbps and I'm happy :) anyone on a T3500 with 6 cores? Hell, I have a older 12core 1snt gen i7 (Xeon) MacPro tower I got Windows running on.. runs pretty good. Haven't put in a GPU to try games...
