Pretty sure OP is a bot account, or at least using generative AI to write their messages. As an example:

Have you ever held a rare mutated crop, only to wonder about its true worth?

I only have a bit of knowledge about Grow a Garden but I do know you can quite easily see the sale value of any plant you have growing or in your inventory. So this sentence just doesn’t make sense.

Ah yeah, for that definition of overheating you’re entirely right; I’m pretty sure all modern CPUs throttle before reaching dangerous temperatures. I was considering overheating as reaching the temperatures where it has to throttle, since that’s when you see the performance hit.

I’ve never seen a laptop that won’t overheat at full load and I’m not sure one even exists.

Laptops get a pass on overheating under load since they need to be compact, but your desktop should not be overheating even at full load. If it is, the only real solution is to upgrade its cooling system.

For the price of one 5090 you could build 2-3 midrange gaming PCs lol. It’s crazy that anyone would even consider buying it unless they’re rich or actually need it for something important.

Computers: Have a whole variety of standardized ways to allow software to communicate with peripherals.

Coolify: Hmm… How about Wi-Fi?

I guess I only have one data point from installing Graphene on my phone. I can see why it would be harder on other devices. Though I was using Linux, and Windows is absolutely not required for WebUSB.

It’s a tradeoff for sure but it’s worth it for a lot of people.

One word: Linux.

Valve’s contributions have singlehandedly revolutionized the Linux gaming scene. They’re the only reason I can play most of the games I own. I don’t worship them, exactly, but I do think very highly of them.

The other 20% is mostly high quality however, and I’m sure they’d filter out the heavily downvoted crud.

I’d assume they’ll tell ISPs to block TikTok’s domains/IPs. It won’t stop determined people but it’s realistically the best they can do.

Pretty much every web browser except Firefox is just Chromium with some extra crap slapped on it, they’re all functionally the same.

The article says 10MB/s minimum write speed, which would take 4.6 days to transfer 4TB, so… yeah. Even with the “max theoretical transfer rates” of 104MB/s (which is probably just read if anything) that’s still almost 11 hours.

That’s just Micro SD cards.

A $300 RFID read/writer? Seems way too expensive, I remember buying one for under $10 for my Arduino a while back.

An AA battery has around 10kJ of energy; spread over a decade that’s 31 microwatts of power. No way they’re doing useful computations with that.
