Hoping he gets serious trouble from this. That same time of jamming signals could have caused someone to die that needed emergency help. Ignorance is no excuse nor are good intentions. Obviously researched enough to find a jammer to buy and too stupid to find a better solution.

The biggest gripe I have had from coworkers and friends is WFH is better in everyway except they get more work done. Also can't forget about banging the secretaries as that would surely be less fun in the metaverse. I think the future is flex for positions that have on site responsibilities and...

If going ultrawide 38" 3840x1600 minimum. Every single 34 and 35" 3440x1440 I have regretted as its only 3 windows comfortably.

I love the idea of right to repair but reality is far too few people can do it right. The other issue is unlike the 1950s people try to sue when they mess up the device further. It is also just another massive cost to maintain public service info and parts. Yes they will have this internally but...

I remember buying this game in the 90s for like 10 dollars and it sucked then. Still some neat nostalgia since it uses the wolf3d engine if I remember right.

Damn these are finally hitting reasonable prices. When I wanted one of these they were brand new and after the headache of buying a full HP system it was just easier to grab a 5950x and use an old DGPU.

That game had quite good graphics and game play for the time. I honestly considered it on par with the resident evils and silent hills of the time.

Same place I finally got my 5950x. It was part gambling and being told I couldn't have it. Now that I have the system built though the speed of that thing when doing gradle builds for android made me not have buyers remorse. Way over kill for gaming though lol.

The consoles are suffering the same fate as the cpus/gpus. I haven't been able to buy a ps5 or xbox series x since they released.

I am a windows user first for casual use and linux heavy for developer work. I have always hated apple products but I picked up a m1 mac mini. Even with my bias towards hating apple they did quite a good job with it. x86 games on the other hand are a train wreck for it because rosetta 2 doesn't...

Well antonline through ebay did actually come through and now I have a 5950x in hand for $879. So over retail but not feeling hurt over that small of a markup compared to the prices I was looking at previously.

I see someone has been in this scenario before:

I saw that earlier and ordered one. I hope it shows up as its only a tiny bit above MSRP and seems like supply isn't getting any better.

I had crossfire rx480s for a while and in the games it worked well in it was awesome as at the time the rendering power was unmatched. Some games on the other hand hardly got a boost even when it worked, while others flatout were broken or had micro stuttering. So besides extra power draw and...

I am a setup junkie and try as I might I have settled on a 43" 4k samsung tv. I have a 32" hp omen sitting on the workbench and a mobile desk with the old 35" 3440x1440 ultrawide. I sit roughly 36 inches away from the screen and its wall mounted. I use 125% scaling or 150% if my eyes are...

Well i have never owned a mac before but grabbed the m1 mac mini. Besides curiosity i got it so i can expand my mobile dev work to apple. Software incompatibilities aside it is as reviews claim stupidly snappy. Runs silent all the time and produces nearly no heat. It pains me to say it but...

If they did a 17" 16:10 version I would consider it as my dev work depends more on comfort of the machine than speed. It seems for now I will be sticking with the LG Gram 17s although I wish they would drop intel and do an 8 core ryzen. The 1065g7 in the current one isn't super slow but its not...

I have a 35" 3440x1440 ultrawide and a 43" 4k. I ended up using the 43" 4k as my main as it has the right level of real estate. If I had to do it again I would go 43" 4k or 38" 3840x1600 ultra wide. The 3440x1440 is just barely not enough for me to have my 4 windows going at once. So...

I completely abandoned normal desktops in 2018. I keep a gaming laptop for gaming/heavy lifting and an LG Gram 17 for portability. I also keep a ton of hp elitedesk and intel nucs for dev servers and a stack of those the size of a regular mid tower atx is about 20 machines. My main reason was...

The only real deals are amazon branded things like echos and then the 1-2 stock total warehouse deals items if they do a 20-30% off there.

Nothing, my gtx 1080 egpu and rtx 2060 in the gaming laptop are far more than I need. Most the games when I rarely play are 15 years old so 4k 60 fps is effortless even with these cards. I will be keep an eye out for the AMD release out of curiosity. So if I ever decide to do another tower that...

I wonder if it will be easy and cheap to mod in a disc drive on the cheaper model. I am sure people will look into it. If they by chance use the same motherboard and just a different case might happen sooner than later.

I think they need to take a closer look at themselves as an economy and laws that affect industry as to why they are not that relevant in tech anymore.

I would have agreed with this 10+ years ago but more and more major software is going cloud based or running in a browser. As a dev I am constantly getting pulled into nodejs,web dev, and mobile stuff now a days. It is pretty rare now that I do native apps or systems level work. Arm cpus can run...

Not sure if you bought yet but looks like the P15 and P17 just dropped for ordering and labor day sales. So if you want to stick with lenovo worth a look.

Well at least they are still in the microscope business. My olympus stereo microscope is leagues ahead of any amscope or cheaper chinese brands I have tried.

Using consumer level boards for professional use cases is a no win situation.

Anyone that has written very simple classifiers from scratch, RNN, or CNN for example know how far off this is from reality. Even using things like tensorflow to simplify the difficulty, AI is a long long way off from replacing coders. If anything its just another framework skill set as I have...

So helping a family member out with their new computer and at 4k on this tv it overscans. Normally I would just flip a setting in the tv or the radeon driver suite but it seems the hdmi slider is missing. Does anyone have an idea on how to correct overscan on this particular tv or where they...

Good deal but man is it hard to find even just an ok motherboard right now.

I suppose I am just use to almost always buying business laptops that tend to have bad screens. So I am use to just tossing them and upgrading to a premium screen.

Sure you can just use a high end external monitor for color accurate work. It also is possible to swap the screen in the laptop itself to a high quality one. It is a thing I do on most of my laptops.

The Quartz canyon version that is xeon and quadro makes total sense for drop in cad boxes. This gaming version doesn't really make sense at this price even though it is small. I love my nucs and have 3 of them. The 2 i7 8559u are no slow at all but only quad core. You can now get a hex core...

Had mine for a few months, ryzen 5 on box and that is what i got. Very premium for the price.

I have the 17" evoo version from this year and its a great machine. Battery life isn't fantastic but most gaming machines have poor battery life. My only hesitation for grabbing one of these is if the new ryzen chips really are a big jump in speed and battery life.

While it has heavily died off in SLI/Crossfire use for games it is bigger than ever for machine learning and data science. My last crossfire setup was dual rx480s which when it did work actually allowed decent 4k gaming but most of the time it was a waste of power and heat. Right now my main...

Laptop model would help a lot. Even if the ports existed not all ports are made equal and also chipset support for higher resolutions.

Anyone have experience with the samsung UN43NU6900 as a pc monitor? I currently have a 35" 3440x1440 100hz monoprice that is moving to a different desk. My previous experience with a 43" 4k tv was bad as it wasn't far enough back, used RGBW, and it was a sceptre.

That is quite the setup. I am guessing you sit quite a ways back as that display setup is about the same vertical height as a 65" tv?

No worries, my biggest gripe is consumer gear which tends to focus on windows while having issues in linux. I run into no issues with company supplied stuff or purpose built systems. The 2 latest laptops i got recently for personal use are a cheap dell inspiron 10th gen intel that is ubuntu...
