Good luck my friend.

And hey, at least that’ll give you an idea if you’re using more than 16GB. If so you’ll know where to get 32GB cheaper.
- Comment on Noob RAM speed question 1 day ago:
Oh no. I misread the OP; you’ve already bought it haven’t you?
Maybe it’s returnable?
- Comment on Noob RAM speed question 1 day ago:
They’re $20-35 per stick (8GB 3200mt/s) on eBay right now. looks like people are already raising the prices on the used market too, but not everyone has yet.
- Comment on Noob RAM speed question 1 day ago:
I think the simple answer is yes 2 sticks is better than one. If only due to the speed increase from moving to dual channel memory.
Also, you may want to check ram prices again, they’ve literally doubled in the last couple months. Even on ddr4. Used ram might be a substantially cheaper option for the next month or so, until those prices go up too.

Technically, even morphine is natural. It’s just the natural opioid in poppies, extracted and concentrated.

If you have a balcony that gets sunlight, you could put a couple panels there. Certainly won’t provide all your electricity but it could make a dent.
Or you could look into community solar projects

iirc socks isn’t ‘fully secure’ or some shit, vpn would be better.

Whelp, guess that rules out a DS9 movie…

A cat for a cat, but it’s an EV, so there is no catalytic converter.

Oof, if you think the gouging is bad on consoles, wait till you look at GPU prices. I haven’t owned a console in almost a decade, but the price advantage is still on the console side.

LMBO I posted the answer to your question in this same thread at the exact same time you asked it.
- Comment on ARC Raiders | Launch Trailer 3 weeks ago:
It’s an interesting concept, but the pvp was a huge turnoff. Maybe it’d be different if there was an option to form an alliance or truce while above ground, but then it’s just PvE with one massive team.
- Comment on Plasma TV recommendations? Looking for a decent 50+ inch display for older consoles. 3 weeks ago:
Commercial displays aren’t great for gaming due to latency and refresh rate. Commercial signage displays don’t care about either, so you’re not going to get a good result.
I’m on team “get a smart tv and don’t give it Internet access”. Only complaint I have about my LG C5 ID that switching HDMI inputs is ever so slightly more cumbersome than on my old Samsung.

iirc there’s a common mod with aluminum foil tape which makes them work great with capacitive touch buttons

Oof, I’ve heard they’re as bad as payday loans, so I’ve never used them. Though I’ve also heard that rent-a-center is worse.

I think the reason why it doesn’t work is because it allows the user to minimize their ad exposure, not maximize.
I’d think the opposite is also true. If you’re trying to maximize your exposure to ads and increase your income, you’re probably not the target audience for the advertised products. If you’re relying on fractions of a penny per ad viewed, you’re not likely to be able to afford the product they’re hocking
