    The steam deck. A used one. I can easily find in my area steam decks under 300$. I can even find some on eBay

    AndreiArgeanu got a reaction from Holmes108 in Is entering a BIOS really that complicated?   
    I mean it technically is if you're not familiar already and haven't read the manual. The bios screen is usually up for a second or less giving you pretty much no time to read, and in some devices, there isn't even any indication on what button to press on startup (usually laptops I think). So to an inexperienced person it isn't immediately obvious what they need to do.

    They can't, database leaks involve the data that sony has about you, things like emails, passwords (usually encrypted), purchases, credit card info (also usually encrypted) and anything else sony might store. Obviously if you don't provide CC info then that won't get leaked.

    AndreiArgeanu got a reaction from wasab in The beauty of the Linux ecosystem   
    idk, I use ubuntu extensively for development, and tried to install some other distros, but god damn does Linux not like secure boot, TPM and other similar features. I hate having to enrol random keys for secure boot, why doesn't Linux do it itself, why can Windows but Lindon't?
     
    Linux is definitely nice, and so far much more stable (the OS, doesn't always apply for some of the software I use) for me, but I'd find it hard to use it personally for gaming or using random somewhat obscure software or even more popular stuff, but it makes the perfect development environment.

    YouTube absolutely supports HDR. Here's why very few use it:
     
    The situation has improved somewhat since then, but there is a long road ahead still.

    Split keyboard might be your best bet. Either something ergonomic or just a basic keyboard but split. Unfortunately these do demand a premium, with both examples below coming around/starting at 150$. There are cheaper options but they either lack customizability or use worse software than what you might be used to alongside potentially lacking mechanical switches. You could also save money and have a fun project by making something like this yourself. You may be able to find board designs for some of these keyboards, have it printed by some PCB printing company and buy switches and a controller and make it all yourself.

    AndreiArgeanu got a reaction from ShiroEerie in Can my b365m ds3h used a m.2 nvme?   
    The motherboard M.2 slot is compatible with both NVME and SATA drives as written in the manual. Be aware that installing a SATA M.2 drive will disable one of the SATA ports. Specifically Port 0. SATA M.2 drives are typically B&M key buit sometimes can be B Key as well, while NVME drives are typically M key, but can sometimes be B&M key as well which means they only a have a 2x PCIE interface.

    AndreiArgeanu got a reaction from Crystalized King in i need help if anyone can assist me out (case and Gpu compatibility troubleshooting)   
    I doubt anyone has that specific combo. There are full measurements of the card on TechPowerUp, if your case is a little larger than those measurements you should be fine.

    AndreiArgeanu got a reaction from Why_Me in Advice on first-time build   
    It's a pretty solid build overall. I'd personally change the arctive freezer 34 for a Thermalright Peerless Assassin, 10$ cheaper and better performance as well.

    I got the Hellhound 7900XT and let me tell you this thing has some whiny coils. It's been stable though.
    It's honestly kind of funny, run an LLM and you can hear the characters come out like a printer.

    oh yea it totally was limited by the cooler. To get it to not overheat it had to be loud asf and it basically didnt boost

    Was it overheating by chance? I don't remember mine being particularly slow, although it has a slight OC and twice the memory so it helped a bit.

    They're surface mount capacitors. Nothing goes there.

    I'm a little surprised you were actually able to find a pre built with standard PSU connectors. A lot of office PC manufacturers like Dell seem to have exclusively switched to their own shitty proprietary crap that requires adaptors to make it work since 8th-9th gen and up at least.

    Samsung makes still makes some rugged phones if you're interested in that. The XCover 7 just released this January, but it's nothing to write home about given it's only a 350£ phone with a replaceable 4050mah battery. It's a shame they don't have they stopped the Galaxy Active line with the S8.

    i got my first car. A 2006 fiat panda with less than 42k miles. It had every single little bit of documentation that came with the car. Even the accessory booklet. It’s green and it came with a U2 album. It's a 1.1 litre Active model, apparently 4 cylinder 8 valve engine, thought it was 3 . It only makes 50 something HP according to the spec sheets but it hasn't been a problem, I've driven it home 15-16 miles 40-50mph and it doesn't feel particularly slow. I love the car to bits.
