For seo and those it concerns-- This $28 cable connects the Apple Studio Display tm to Windows computer w modern gpu. I've stopped using the monitor with my macbook and now use it for my desktop. All ports and camera/mic work. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BNX7MS6N aka "WJESOG DisplayPort...

Somehow I am not surprised. That's rough. F My last experience with Best Buy was an impromptu trip for an external NVME enclosure. They had an in-house branded one... usb-c port + cable included, thermal padding, for $15! I dont think I'll have a more positive Best Buy experience than that...

Any software alternative, even cmd line, to adjust Nvidia Control Panel's "Adjust Desktop Color Settings"? Nvidias software is 15 years out of date. Heck, any way to change the window to black/oled friendly color? Even on other monitor it is somewhat blinding, when adjusting colors for perfection..

Curious too. I’ve gone through at least 3. They just stop working or develop weird effects. No problem with hdmi

I think Streets is pretty fun. At least until late wipe when it'll be rat city. The map is the most mmo layout design by far. I am honestly a bit shocked it is good as it is, maybe just because lighthouse followed by a year of no content set low standards. It does look dated somehow; there are...

Yes and no. It's inconvenient, but you can't beat "2x" mapping for looks.

Just want to shill -- bought the Studio Display refurb (cheaper than used, still overpriced). It is phenomenal. M1 Mba works so well even with only 8gb ram. Webcam isnt as bad as reviews say but I do have natural light. The speakers are impressive; depending on how music is mastered, I don't...

Case closed it seems. Hahhah. You think, that would never happen to me. Since the prebuilt didnt list exact parts, I didnt know the psu. Well yes its the exact model. Gigabyte deleted their amazon product listing. Newegg listing >45% 1/5 reviews. It is the notorious Gigabyte GP-P750GM. In my...

Win11 with 10700 3090fe 32gb 750W psu m2 drive. (Newegg prebuilt, mostly Gigabyte parts..) Computer would sometimes not boot. Had to flip off psu, try again, would work after few tries. Sometimes it would turn on but there would weird power to usb peripherals, like laser on mouse would be on...

Tarkov has something like 12 or 15 tick rate servers at most, which makes it weirder compared to other shooters, also the way they choose netcode to work (or they ended up with lol), often has bad desync. Game's PVP is understanding/grokking the netcode and supreme map knowledge -- abusing that...

M1 Macbook air is great. Have the same 8gb model, posting from it now, and the lesser ram is used much better on arm, and the ssd swap is fast. Choose to not upgrade to newer air/pro since this one is much smaller with no fan and kills Final Cut Pro. Linux support now too.

Par for the course, my 20 month old Newegg/ABS prebuilt has failed in another way, the tempered glass side panel exploded. Recently, the computer would not regularly boot. Had to shut off psu for 10 seconds and try again, ad nauseum. Well today after about 10 minutes of that, I decided to see...

Have $500 steam credit. Friends dragged me to Seattle DOTA world championship few years ago, in game item was apparently worth a bit. Not sure how to cash out steam credit other than buying Steam games and sending them. OR I can apparently buy a Steam Deck for you (1-2 week delivery). OR I dont...

I have stream credit I need to get rid of, can buy you brand new one
