I respect Sam's love for the N9. Mainly because I still play PSP games
[QUOTE=lonesome;51136905]Do you not have an iGPU?[/QUOTE] I technically do, but my motherboard has no seperate HDMI socket or anything so I can't get any video [QUOTE=Brt5470;51137291]You got anything left from bitcoins to get a new card?[/QUOTE] They're all in cold storage, have no plans of using any of that money for day-to-day expenses

[QUOTE=Del91;51138507]Who burns money wtf[/QUOTE] I buy old computers.
I buy tacos
I buy shit I probably don't really need but it's useful to have in general.
I bought a PSP. Last week. It was brand new. Lumines is pretty sweet tho
why the fuck doesn't teracopy asynchronously verify? Like I'm watching it read and run checksums on the source file, then the target, then the next source file, then the next target. Why not just read all down the list. Would save so much time.
Because teracopy is a thing that does a bunch of good things in terrible ways.
Also it only deletes source files when the entire process is finished. I use Teracopy Move with Verify and it's clunky. Would be nice if it did the first file, verified it and then "moved" that file. I feel like I should just use rclone for this kind of thing, since it can do asynchronous stuff.
I'd consider making a TeraCopyCopy but I dunno how the fuck you replace the copy in Explorer and shell extensions scare me.
[QUOTE=garychencool;51139291]I buy shit I probably don't really need but it's useful to have in general.[/QUOTE] I spontaneously bought a new desk lamp today, because it has a USB charger and a 5A extension outlet built in. Did I need it? No. Will it be useful? Hell yes. I was [I]looking[/I] for maybe a new TV stand, since I'm going to be using it more and don't want to crane my neck that much, but they didn't have any that I liked. I also need a new end table but somehow the only ones in stock were colonial style which totally doesn't fit my modern-ish aesthetic.
Ran NTFS compression on my dxtory recordings. Which are lossless avi recordings. Took like 3 days but I saved... like what... 1% diskspace I think. [img]https://i.imgur.com/5ExM6bg.png[/img]

[QUOTE=helifreak;51139475]Works OK on BMPs and surprisingly bad on WAVs.[/QUOTE] WAV uses PCM, right? That compresses really poorly with most RLE, Huffman and dictionary compressors (aka just about every lossless generic-data compressor), because the size of the repeating sections changes so often (every time the sound changes frequency). Most audio compressors, both lossy and lossless, start by transforming the data into frequency domain. Frequency changes much less often, so you can compress runs of it pretty effectively.

Is the K65 a worthy investment for the office? I'm looking for something with a detachable USB cable that I can take to and from work on my days off since the guy that worked the opposite shift of me probably would destroy it :v:
So my friend out in Quebec found this on Kijiji for $40. [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/8BitaCd.jpg[/img_thumb] Apparently the network gateway (the bottom box?) router was not pulled apart properly by the seller, the expansion cards are valued a lot higher.

So... for $40 that's gonna be at least a 10-fold profit.
Furries have been around for a long time. I was emptying out my house while we were preparing to move, and I found an old furry comic book from the early 90's or late 80's. She confirmed that they were a thing back then. The Sci-Fi fandom connection is probably true, because that's most likely where someone gave it to her.

what the hell is wrong with the consumer laptop market? Im helping my fiance look for a new laptop, and most of the $700-$900 options have fuckin 2.2ghz dual core i7s and 5400 rpm hard drives. One $600 laptop had a pentium. I wanna puke. I told her to look for some higber specs, but the retail monkeys at the stores keep spouting the " thats really overkill for what youll be using it for" line. Maybe if you could get decent medium spec laptops without paying for the gimmicky ultra thin touchscreen 2-in-1 features, she wouldnt have to look at a business grade laptop to escape the mediocre processors.

I say used because business machines tend to be looked after reasonably well and they sell for a fraction of the actual value. Plus, on sites like eBay, proper listing to used business laptops tend to be fantastic, I find they usually detail every scratch and dent on them so you know exactly what you're getting.
Thought I posted this but I guess not I have a motherboard with specs listed like: DDR4 3333*(*O.C.)/ 3300*/ 3200*/ 3000*/ 2800*/ 2666*/ 2400*/ 2133 but I got 2400 RAM does this mean I have to overclock the cpu to even be able to increase it in the bios to even the rated frequency?
Her parents are paying for it, or at least fronting it till she gets out of college, and they wouldnt consider a used one.

Were gonna go look at some local ones together today, but if we dont find one, were gonna order that one and ill send my laptop with her until the new one arrives.

An SSD would help a ton, which you could always install afterwards assuming you don't have to take apart 3/4 of the computer. For someone who isn't doing heavy gaming or rendering, all you really need is good battery life, a screen that doesn't have terrible viewing angles, a case that doesn't feel like shit and a touchpad/keyboard that's comfortable to use. For most stuff these days, you could get away with a Core 2 Duo. Even the shittest CPUs Intel has these days should be exceeding the performance of one.
