GOTSpectrum reacted to RollinLower in Folding Community Board
It took a while, but my F@H box is finally operational again!
Tally of stuff i had to replace:
- CPU (7742 died, currently back using the 7552)
- Motherboard (asrock ROMED8-2T to replace the Supermicro H11SSL-i)
- RAM (128GB DDR4 3200 to replace 256GB DDR4 3200 that died)
- Lots of new fittings
- Lots of new tube
- New 4070Ti waterblock (managed to save 1, the other is dead)
- New radiator since the old one was impossible to clean
Final cost, well over 1800 euros!
If anything, i think i learned my lesson using loop cleaning fluids. I'm still waiting on delivery of the second 4070Ti waterblock which is why only 2 GPUs are in the picture now.

So... I used 9,640kWh electricity last year... Damn
At 0.32GBP/kWh that's... A lot

Here, let me help you out.
9,640kWh x 0.32GBP/kWh = 3,084.8GBP per year/365=8.45GBP per day.

I approve of any legislation that will keep babies off the internet, not for the safety of 14-year-olds but for the sanity of everyone else.

Note: it's definitely technology. It's always technology.
Thanks for all the hard work you do and the PITA technology you have to deal with on a daily basis 🤣

I've always been a big fan of ThreadRipper tbh

Oh that's a solid one too.
AMD went hard on the edgy marketing around the 2010s.

I'd argue the opposite actually. Ryzen and EPYC sound pretty damn cool when compared to..... Core.
Go back further and you've got stuff like Turion Ultra ZM-80 - the whole Turion line was awful but the name sure sounded badass! AMD's last uncool processor was the K6, since then all their chips have sounded pretty rad.
Intel's names have been awful for a while. Core 2 Duo naming scheme was very reasonable. P, T (rarely U or E) prefix to signify generation and socket, 4 digit number for clockspeed, FSB, and cache. First few i series generations were reasonably named but it went downhill fast.

Like, just generally, Intel stuff just sounds cooler and then the AMD equivalent is kinda just bland. And then they don't go overboard like asus or msi or whoever. i just really like their names.

Intel Core™ Ultra 5 processor 135H really does it for you, huh?

I am very happy, I have hit the top 10. I don't know as I will keep it for long or ever again, but I have made it at least once.

GOTSpectrum reacted to Senzelian in The US Department of Justice accuses Apple of having an illegal monopoly over smartphones
By definition, they don't have a monopoly, neither in hardware nor software. But can we just agree that they're assholes? There should be an anti-asshole law.

GOTSpectrum reacted to OhYou_ in The US Department of Justice accuses Apple of having an illegal monopoly over smartphones
but it isnt necessarily a monopoly in smartphones, that will never go anywhere in court. they have a monopoly in software. they restrict others from using their software, while restrict other software from running on their devices. I'm not sure the exact legalese on that, but that is the problem.

Interesting dynamic in other countries when reading how the smartphone ecosystems work in the US, Japan and Korea. Segmented (in Apple's favor), prestige and socially not even accepted amongst younger generation if you don't have an iPhone.
Where as in Europe everyone uses 3rd parties. Whatsapp, Signal, Instagram, Messenger and Snapchat for most of people's communication.
