  1. I mean they tried to make this thing so I guess it wouldn’t be too far off to view project Q as a spiritual successor of that. Plus it also makes sense to use android if you’re using a smartphone soc anyway. It would be kinda funny to me if they just have regular open Android on it so you could install anything from the google play store, including steam link
  2. I'm already running 1.0.0.6 and it's still kinda slow but tbf I'm also always cold booting since te desk gets disconnected from power entirely when I'm not using it (0,45€/KWh do add up quite a bit over time)
  3. before turning off EXPO (for the time beien) I saw 1.38V on SoC. that’s what I get for leaving it on auto I guess. Also interesting to note that memory training happens on every boot, I just thought the server 10gig card took so long because of network stack shenanigans
  4. probably because the person ran into the same problem as me and realized that their cooler isn't actually compatible with AM5 and decided to go the janky route of keeping the CPU in with the cooler mounting pressure. NGL I thought about doing the same for a second but instead I decided to run with a wraith spire at 100% and just did nothing more than windows installation until I waited for parts. I'll let you decide which way was worse.
  5. I suspect the usual "motherboard AI super automatic overclocking you definitely agreed to when not checking all bios setting hidden 6 levels deep" to be culprit. I went through a couple of settings, mostly Asus multi core enhancement and some power features stood out, begging to cause some trouble so they got deactivated. Well, I shall see if mine blows up now
  6. I was reading the title and went “that’s not really cheap for a 1TB hard drive” then I realised that WD makes SSDs since they bought SanDisk quite some years ago
  7. Funnily enough, even with 24GB of VRAM I never saw any game use more than 8 (Except that one time where I hit a bug in another game which caused a VRAM leak) but a bit of "futureproofing" might not be a bad idea. I'd say either wait a little longer and see if something decent gets in your price range or wait for next gen GPUs and watch the fire sale going on.
  8. I haven’t messed with VR in a while but imo displays are just that much more comfortable over time and way easier to use. Sure, immersion is unparalleled and it is awesome but even something simple like browsing menus is quite a chore if your particular game isn’t built for it. if possible I’d advise to test out some VR headsets first to see how you like them.
  9. I suggest looking at twitch streamers or YouTube videos to find communities you might enjoy. The videos you looked at might just as well already have discord servers linked in their description.
  10. At least in the transportation space it has happened before. The original Porsche 911 was model number 901 and they originally wanted to name it that but Peugeot has a trademark for 3 digit numbers with the 2nd digit being a 0 so Porsche had to go with 911 instead. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche_901
  11. And you guys thought Comcast is evil ? Sounds about something DT would do and provides further proof to my hypothesis that every ISP needs to be evil. I’m fairly certain that they won’t be able to pull it off. I.e. how did BMW get away with naming their electric car i3 while Intel had that name on their processor for years? as @Trik'Stari mentioned it is possible to trademark a specific colour pigment and it is also possible to trademark a specific colour shade in your business area i.e. Kawasaki green in transportation, but that doesn’t stop you from selling green cars, just be some shades off and don’t use that specific colour pigment.
  12. I don’t think I ever used one personally but I do remember those as well ?
  13. Reminds me of the days when they sold GPUs by putting pretty girls on the box ... and that I’m old...
  14. self hosting still works so I'll definitely give it a shot. Discord has been pissing me off lately with their server shenanigans. Thanks for sharing ?
