FYI - went cheap on the over-under stand. 36 bucks for a set-it and forget it since I don't need to adjust it once it's set. https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R1R9PKHR5Z4WFZ Does the job.

Replaced some ancient Logitech Z313s with a Vizio V21t-J8 2.1 soundbar/subwoofer. https://www.amazon.com/VIZIO-Compact-Theater-Sound-Virtual/dp/B099BJV68H Main reasoning was to clean up the cable mess the Z313's created since I moved into a new house and now I have my own office rather than...

New home, new office, new setup. Smaller desk, so now its over/under. I actually like it better.

Understood about firmware.... And Wave's site says "anything that fits the standard (except motorola 8600 has issues) will work" and don't bother giving a list. But its only Modems they talk about. The local reps at the store said they need to use their own equipment for voice, so I thought...

Did a search, didn't find an answer, if there is one, just point me to it. I just moved out of Comcast's service area and into Wave (now "Astound") cable service area. Paid for their near-gig service which requires docsis 3.1 Plugged in a non-phone docsis 3.1 modem (Arris Surfboard SB8200)...

Yeah, I gave it a shot due to it being a Ryan Reynolds vehicle, even though otherwise I had misgivings. But IMO, they hit it out of the park. Not an epic movie, but very enjoyable on all almost all fronts - other than Tiaka Waititi's caricature.

All outta stock. Not that it matters, godammit.

ROFL.... The hate is strong.... As noted - dealerships sell hot cars above MSRP quite frequently for hot models. The other items.... competition and plenty keeps the prices low. Full stop. Corporate big wigs at the grocery stores and walmarts COULD do what this kid did and jack up the...

Such fierce, emotional value judgements of people based on a single article. Most people earning a living selling/reselling stuff haven't invented their own product. Walmart? Grocery store? Car dealership? The IRS will tax him on that 110K. Hopefully his ledger is clear. Based on the...

It's envy of those who can afford the increased prices and a sense of entitlement that they should be able to get what they want just because they want it. "It's not fair"... buck up kiddo, life isn't fair. Work harder. Make your own breaks. Oh, there are problems... but this kid and his...

Expect it to continue through 2022.... No new builds until 2023 it looks like..... https://www.caranddriver.com/news/g36218381/car-models-affected-chip-shortage/

Oh goody, another GPU we can't buy....

^.... and the porch pirates would have your money, AND the card that they could sell on ebay themselves. You're clearly not thinking this through ... :p

My company is definitely going to be going to be cutting office hours as things cool down. Will be 2 or 3 days in office, 3 or 2 days home. Engineering (for a large company that builds transportation vehicles) is collaborative, and while phone calls and video calls help, it is NOT like being...

yeah, missed this dammit, finally got tired of my old one a couple months ago and just paid the 50 bucks - even at 50 well worth the upgrade from the original.

really out of the game, lately. But finally got a decent shot from a family day hike on Boulder River Trail https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/washington/boulder-river-trail

Where the hell is the "I can't pin things to the start menu" coming from? While I don't have any, it supports subfolders, too, as long as you drag one icon on top of another to create the "folder" and tiered menu structure. I can understand not liking the "look" of it, but the functionality is...

how the fuk is that "high concept"? "Gravity" with guns and backpacks.

yeah, webex and "lync" (skype) here for work. And no video for any conferencing - cameras are not even installed on the laptops - unless you have some customer contact, then you have special dispensation for video. It is amazing how many players there are in the space, and how quickly Zoom...

waaaah, so we all stream at 720P (Looks at 2009 panasonic 720P plasma).... cry me a river. GOD are we entitled bitches.

thanks, picked one up because one of my case's front panel USB died, my refurb K70 doesnt have usb ports, and plus the volume ctrl will help me quickly turn down the volume when the wife yells for (at) me... :)

Travelling... so "right now" I'm using a Anker "gaming" mouse () that is actually a really good deal at that price, along with my HP Pavilion 15Z-cw100's native keyboard......

Consumer has a choice to go with a licensed service or unlicensed. Shoddy work can still be sued - just have to be sure you have a good contract before you get it done. We have the internets now, we can do research. "Always make sure your contractor is licensed, bonded and insured" - I do...

All of that is a reason for licensing to exist, but not a reason to require it. BB

meh... PCB is still black...

yeah, allllll the way down to #15.... after an AMD motherboard somehow shows up in the list...

In other words, you would like to be willfully ignorant by ignoring the source material of the original article that contradicts it's conclusion, indicating a strong, inaccurate spin of the author by his cherry picking of data; and you choose to continue to display your ignorance and lack of...

Someone is ignoring this post and doesn't understand the difference between percentages and totals, and how sales can increase over time yet still "lose" market share when the overall gaming market is simply growing faster than a particular segment's increase. Mobile gaming is a "new" segment...

He DOES like to hear himself talk. I turned it off after 10 minutes and the third or fourth or fifth time he referenced capillary action, gravity, atmosphere...

Phone gaming is huge and becoming bigger, that does not mean pc gaming is getting smaller, ffs. While there are issues with PC gaming, and he does hit on some of them, they're not the reason market share is declining. The reason is that mobile game market share is GROWING. Market share !=...

Nah - just built my brother in law a "new" PC for Christmas with a bunch of used parts (levftover HD, Case, PSU, 1700X CPU) and new mobo/RAM/card - aorusM B450/cheap DDR3000/RX590. It's plenty enough to game at 1080P and gets him in the door where he'll eventually upgrade. When most newbs...

won't post the big pics, but yeah - Renton, WA is just like the above when I went there this afternoon...... I hadn't seen this thread and was unprepared for the empty walls and shelves.... Rarely go because its 35+ miles away, and in Seattle traffic that's an hour and not worth the trip...

nothing changes the base temps... 45 -> spiking to 53... unless I manually undervolt/throttle the processor I guess that's one downside to 2700x over 1700x. Higher speeds = higher temps. :) So just settled on changing fan smoothing spool up time to 2.6 seconds in addition to increasing the...

^ Thanks. For now, just adjusted my fan profiles. Gotta go make some more tamales now. Will revisit later, maybe, after I watch temps for a bit. BB

Yeah, but then it would be common to both the 1700x I just swapped and the 2700x, but 1700x never did it. What adjustments? Note the processor seems to be running steady at 4.05 Ghz and not 3.7, which could be making up for the temp diff between my 2700x and 1700x. Most days I value quiet...

Just swapped out a 1700X for 2700X in system in sig. 1700X going to a family member. These mini 5 degree temp spikes are really annoying as they cause fan spool up. Information on the net is all over the board. "its normal"; "I never see it"; "run amd power profile" (I do, and it doesn't...

Daylight is actually pretty fukin blue. Not as blue as twilight, but it's sure as fuk not yellow. It's sunset/artificial incandescent light that is golden/yellow.
