A 1TB SSD is 60€. In a shop.

They’re like cheaping out 6 bucks here




How much is it?

Also how much RAM/Storage did you get?


Sure, but my point was: don’t believe their word for it. Check it up.

Edit: still can’t help yourselves sucking it up to rich people IMO. Guy lived like a billionaire his whole life and now “only” has tens of millions…


Yeah maybe he’s like bill gates and gave away large portions of his wealth, to himself…

Stuff like this needs to be thoroughly checked before it becomes “heartwarming”.

Edit: my point: don’t just trust them, verify.

Edit: seems to have angered the bill gates boot lickers lol



It’s crazy good, or you can use the slightly less good chesscom for $49.99 (first month then $69.99).

I love the puzzles on lichess, they are taken from played matchs where a mistake were made and there are literally millions of them of all kind of difficulties and types 💖


Try online chess, we’re all fools over there already.



Ha ha nice game!!

Some constructive criticism;

You get accepted into a game, but have to scroll down to find the playground, which is a little mini hassle

You play “the other” sometimes, I thought you always player orange and loled when the cross moved stupidly

The enemy went into himself I think (that should not be possible to do IMO) and I won, but I’m not sure that happened, some visual feedback on why you won would be nice.

Great game I must say!


Yeah but I don’t think anyone of us are going so big that’d be a hassle :-) and it could just be opt in too…


Godot is really good, but it doesn’t distribute your games, right?


We just hit 1.6M votes to “debate” a horrible law that’s in the passing here in France (re-allowing cancerous anti pest substances and more), we should have aimed at the EU level instead!


No but that there are no leftists in Italy because of it. Or do you believe the CIA is killing all the leftist in Italy right now?



The nineties was the best decade.

Not low effort posting IMO, this is a part of our culture & has historical value.


No no, this is Super Power Shell (not compatible). /j


Soon to introduce Super Power Shell 4.0 (non compatible)


Yeah, it was nice as long as it lasted, now it’s all meetings and stupid “agility” (as agile as DPRK is democratic) and measurings of your percieved productivity.

I’m still looking, maybe some c/c++ old legacy system needs a geek somewhere?




My kid got the 2060, I bought a RX 6400, I don’t need the hairy arms any more.

Then again I have become old and grumpy, playing old games.


Thanks, but you’re trying to use logic with tankies. They decided the URSS/China are always right, any proof against that narrative is just western propaganda according to them.


They’re lemmy.ml russ-bots or tankies, logic doesn’t funnction on them.


Okay lets do the litmus test:

What do you think of tianmen square?

What do you think of the Uyghurs?

Did the URSS create famines?

Edit: i sure riled up a bunch of tankies 😂


Of the 6 xiaomi I have bought for me & family (Note 2, the Note 5 and then Notes 7,8,9,11 IIRC) are all working perfectly well.

The 5 started to have some slight mini-usb connection problems, I cracked 2 screens by misshaps but that’s it.

The Honor phones and other cheap ones have lasted approximately 1 year, the (used) samsung fold went on repairs so often it’s ridiculous.

Anecdotal evidence ofc.

On a sidenote, after the Note 2 (I don’t remember for that one) they were all the note pro, maybe that’s why they’re holding out?




If you fill up half a terabyte with ease, but not want to offload it on a usb key, well Xiaomi has a 1TB phone out 😅.

You’re right though, why remove something that small just because? Shitty move.


Well, new phones have 512GB so I personally doesn’t see the need for more storage, and double-usb keys make for easy transfers.

I mean I’m not against it, I had a 128GB SD card before, I just, personally, doesn’t feel the need any more (and I’m only having 128GB base storage).



That’s expensive! Kids phone got that +100€ 512GB a year or two ago when he needed a new one.

I’m no apple/samsung guy though so it depends I guess.


Shrugs, I do use my FIIO BTR DAC sometimes (somewhat audiophile I guess), hooked up to my headphones. But only when the jack is not working as expected. Am I doomed?!


I might be an outlier on this one, but what was SD cards good for? Hear me out :-) It was good because you had a phone with 32GB storage (11.3GB free!). It also was good for swapping photos and films and such in/out of the phone.

I have a meager 128GB Storage space on my old phone, if I had to buy a new one (I buy used when I can) I’d opt for 512GB just to not nedding to care any more. I also have a ten dollar 64GB USB-A/USB-C key that I use to transfer stuff to and from the phone. I’m too lazy to set up a shared folder on my PC and maybe that’s a bit technical for some people but that could make things even more smooth.

So what’s your use case that absolutely needs an SD card nowadays?

Side note: they can try to pry the 3.5 jack from my dead hands though.


You know your history! Done 2 was the blast BTW 😋

Seems we are on the same page too.

I do have a hard time finding good indie games though (strategy, turn based, maybe rpg), I don’t care that much for polish (as in a polished game) but the depth has to be there or it’s just fluff IMO. Old game dev ranting 😅

Best ones last decade include like Hoplite and FTL but they sure are scarce.


Well I can’t say I didagree, you’re basically saying not very much (new good stuff) have happened since quite a long time, right?

BTW I only tried out BOI but it’s just a frenetic shooter with a theme? Battle royale is just a shrinking map, right? I didn’t know what bullet heaven was, a slo-mo bullet hell sort of thing, or a sort of moba-like with more control?


Well I don’t play shooters, so I can’t say. Don’t get the feeling they invented much since the Duke Nukem time though.

And I disagree hard, jazz was out a century+ ago, video games has still a lot to explore, why is there no “new better” C&C, WoW or even Minecraft? They just sit back and serve the new FIFA etc.


I was thinking along the lines like groundbreaking games, like when HOMM or C&C came out for example.
