    Stopped by the local apple authorized reseller while at the mall today with my step daughter to take a look at the Neo as a replacement for her 4 year old school laptop thats on its last legs.

    What are you nerds playing this weekend?

    V rising, new updates and content have been super solid so far. Few friends got a server up and running, really enjoying this play through. If the weather is crap when my nephews come over we will fire up a Red alert lan party for a fee hours.

    Am I the only one not caring about new phones anymore?

    have no interest in new phones anymore, currently on an iphone 13 but bought a 15plus to have as a brand new spare if anything happens to the 13 since i refuse to have AI in any of my devices. Might start researching graphene Os or another alternative for later down the road

    Amazon Prime Video will start showing ads on January 29th

    This right here, my area is lucky to get anything in 2 days at the best of times. The shipping company amazon uses here is beyond brutal. I feel like the $140 a year she pays for prime could be better spent other places, i prefer to shop locally but its getting hard.

    Amazon Prime Video will start showing ads on January 29th

    Same i 100% refuse to watch commercials. I dont consume the same amount of material i once did just due to lack of interest in political BS being crammed down my throat but when i do i dont need the 19min of commercials per 60min of broadcast

    Been on amazon looking for deals all week, I'm narrowing down to cmr drives for sure. If i decide to do a smaller z1 pool just to move files quickly back and forth over the network is it possible to mirror that onto the larger more secure raid z2 pool as a little safety net? Or just say screw it...

    Since we have ditched all streaming services the majority of the time it will be 2 4k streams at a time, usually full audio h.265, but occasionally there will be a 3rd 1080p as well. I am trying to plan fast storage for the future if i decide to try and store my steam Library on it as well

    Amazon CEO Andy Jassy threatens employees to return to office or "things are probably not going to work out for you"

    Amazon CEO Andy Jassy threatens employees to return to office or "things are probably not going to work out for you"

    On a positive note the company i work for forced all its entry level employees and most of its tech support back to the centers, there was a lot of push back and some quit but it was the fat that needed to be trimmed. Its only been 15 days and we the techs already see a night and day...

    Pressure grows on Apple to open up iMessage

    I personally hope apple keeps imessage to themselves and i want nothing to do with rcs spam on my device. Google has to much control over peoples data as is, last thing i want is for them to have more access to my devices. Not interested in being spammed through my text messages.
