For my use case it would be graphic design, 3D rendering (Blender with Eevee rendering) for motion graphics, and video compositing. My main…

> Am I the only one that thinks 4k at 27" is rather silly? Lots of people think that, but many others do not. I'm in the latter camp…

Would eating this count? https://youtu.be/zjPA9Kbhd_w?si=rREDMA6_0Z-Sc7fb

I'm guessing when the fan fails, then the entire monitor breaks. Hard pass then. I only want passive cooling.

Grays. Sports. Almanac.

That’s just the maximum load you can place on it. It’ll idle much much lower.

I'm planning to get a 4K 240Hz monitor because I play mostly old single player titles, so I don't need a 5090 to run at high fps. The only…

I remember playing Suikoden II twice, then playing Suikoden and then playing Suikoden II after loading the save data from the first game so…

I’m hanging out for a 7840HS deal since there’s realistically not much difference and they dip to even lower prices.

If you want to do upscaling for some recent systems, you generally do want to go overkill.

You'd be better off using Jellyfin instead since it's had official support for hardware transcoding with AMD for a while now.…

I only got the 12GB version because I use mine for art and illustration among other things (can't afford an equivalent iPad Pro) as more…

Honestly, just watch some videos and give it a go. The only slightly annoying part is sliding off the casing because it's hard to gauge how…

My 'choice' of not having private health insurance is because I can't afford it currently and I'm fully aware the LHC is building up.

> How do these manage when the power cable is sudden pulled out. Same as any other PC - it turns off. You would have to get a UPS…

Solaar lets you configure Logitech mice in Linux - some distros have it included. Not sure if it has that exact setting, but it might.…

Hyperscroll? You can turn it off if you don't like it.

> but also i dont think those machines cost that much, over time it would pay it self off anyways. It’s probably more so companies still…

I'm not a professional artist (I'm a graphic designer) but the boom of generative AI affects me as well. My own anecdotal experience is…

Visual arts is really broad. The main point I was making is that there'll be some art mediums that will be devalued (as in 'less…

If you like coffee, then yeah? Same goes for any interests people are into. I've tried both cheap and expensive automatic coffee machines.…

I think certain types of media will just end up becoming more valued than others, such as oil paintings and sculpture. A robot arm could do…

While that’s fine and I respect your opinion, why post in a bargain thread like this then? It’s like posting in a deal about meat and…

It's worth noting that not all mail accounts have this feature, so it's understandable if you haven't done it before.

They mean 54W TDP in the context of heat output, not power consumption in watts. TDP values haven’t aligned with power consumption for a…

As much as I really like robo vacs, I agree these prices are getting out of control.

It would be okay as a read cache, but I wouldn't rely on it for sustained writes since you could end up with a QLC model.

I can vouch for Immich as a great photo backup solution. Easy to set up with Docker and there’s lots of guides out there for it.

I run a home server as well, but I have dual WAN with NBN HFC and a mobile broadband backup modem. My OPNsense router runs in failover…
