Hashiba reacted to Valentyn in Show off your old and retro computer parts
Two absolute rare beauties I found recently. 3dfx powered Arcade board, for Golden Tee. Also a sealed new, Japanese only V3 3000 minibox. It's so small compared to the normal US, and EU retail boxes!

Decent specs (okay, maybe not.. more on that later), completely horrible price (unless the price and PC is different from what you see).
You can get cheaper and better by building yourself:

Or even paying some shop to set this up shouldn't cost more than 100 USD.
They are building a PC with an A320 chipset for a Ryzen 7, which is already a sin in my head. Then they are also using 2400Mhz RAM, that's a no go.
The price is also terrible, considering basically all parts in the system could be better for a lower price. The build listed above has the same CPU, but all the other parts are better.
Cooler: not mentioned on the site, but probably mediocre or stock cooler
Motherboard: X570 is much better than A320
Memory: actually a good speed kit
SSD and HDD: larger for both
Videocard: better performing card
Case: website doesn't fully load for me, but they are probably using some simple OEM stuff
PSU: not listed, probably the same as above

Hashiba got a reaction from WkdPaul in Sega CD?
I was one of the guys that used to carry a genesis CDX in his pocket, you could use it as a discman or hook it up to a crt to play megarace or night trap!
for added inspiration check out the Mitsumi drives that used to come with the Soundblaster combo packages:

Working good now, I switched the command and the options keys under keyboard shortcuts in the preference>keyboard section and that got it working. Thanks everyone. Sorry about the dumb question. New to macOS

Hashiba reacted to PGen98 in On rail shooter game genre dies?
As do I, but I'd have a hard time seeing someone new to gaming, or at least new to rail shooters, finding them to be amazing. It'd be like trying to get a kid into Galaga or Contra, just not going to happen because they've got CoD and Black Ops as their frame of reference for shooters.
Yeah, the first Star Fox is a rail shooter, definitely!

Hashiba reacted to hishnash in Blackhat talk on T2 chip security
The Blackhat-conf (2019) has just started to drop videos publicly onto youtube from sessions this summer.
The talk from Apple on Secure boot and how T2 helps them protect against `evil` PCIe devices comprising UEFI secure boot is very interesting.
Other related links to this are https://support.apple.com/en-nz/HT208862
—
there will no doubt be some talk about the disk encryption apple are using, i think that however is a separate topic to the boot protections the T2 chip provides, after all the T2 chips boot protections apply regardless of if you boot from the SSD attached to the T2 chip or boot from other disk be that internal in the macPro or external, USB/Thunderbolt/Network the T2 supports all fo these boot options.
---
[EDIT adding summary]
TLDR:
Normal secure boot systems that use just the signature features of the UEFI are susceptible to attacked if a compromised PCIe device is attached to the system.
* This is mainly do to the fact the PCIe devices (such as raid boot drives) need to provide (small) drivers to the UEFI before one can boot from them, however these normally are loaded as Ring0 before the OS boots so they can easily bypass the UEFI protections.
* Other PCIe devices are also initiated before the system boots (as part of the UEFI) so are able to replace the `validated` signed boot image with thier own.
both of the above things happen before system memory is instantiated by the UEFI so you cant make use of the protection systems provided by Intel (or AMD) that the Kernel would normally use (for example when connecting a Thunderbolt3 device) to ensure that they can not read/write to kernel memory.
The T2 chip however has a small memory buffer within it, and the T2 chip start up before the main x86 chip starts so this lets apple Sandbox the PCIe device startup process so that even if you do have a compromised PCIe device loading durring the UEFI startup it cant modify the UEFI or the OS Boot image.

Even $250 would help me recoup some of the cost of this ?
Thanks!

Hashiba got a reaction from Flying Sausages in How do you clean peripherals? (mouse and keyboard)
I clean my keycaps using warm water and denture cleaning tablets inside a plastic container, just let them soak for like 45 minutes, I also randomly shake them for added fun, you are going to have to rinse them with clean water afterwards but it works

Hashiba reacted to JoostinOnline in Why can't Linus to a traditional Scrapyard Wars?
I haven't enjoyed SYW nearly as much as I did the first season, because they keep adding what I see as unnecessary rules to the competition. In the latest WAN Show, Linus said "We can't just do another $300 computer build". Well why not? Prices have changed, standards have changed, game engines have changed. I don't understand the obsession with giving an experience that's a step down.

This is my first PC that I'll assemble, I'm coming from an alienware with thermal throttling and noise/heat issues, the total cost of this build for me was around $1,015 (Intel Discount, other sales I'm too lazy to include) I'll play Rainbow six, beamng, rtx minecraft, fortnite, and whatever games.
Will update in 4 hours or so when I build it today

Hashiba reacted to Radium_Angel in Help me build a Zombie computer please!
In addition, assuming you are in the USA, I have a free AMD Ryzen 3 2200g and 8GB DDR4 I can ship to you, to get you started, if you wish to go the Ryzen route (this offer is for you only, others reading this post are not valid)
It's not a super duper CPU, but a nice AMD board should set you back around 80$, and I can throw in a pair of 120GB SSDs to help too.
EDIT:
Ok, not from USA, then you pay for shipping and boxes, etc. Offer still stands
EDIT 2:
www.pcpartpicker.com might help you as well
EDIT 3: (typos, because I'm braindead today)

Hashiba reacted to DrMacintosh in Hold on to those christmas wishlists - AIB RX 5500 to be released + review
AMD doesn’t make flagship cards and hasn’t for a long time. Competing with Nvidia at the high end isn’t economical because people just buy Nvidia regardless of actual performance.
The low to mid-range has always been what they are good at.
