- Comment on ChatGPT fried my drive!? 1 week ago:
It doesn’t really need to be tedious… My notes are jokey, full of profanity, sarcasm, and self deprecating humor
for context, these are my personal notes for my personal machine. These will never be shared with anyone else, and nobody else has to try to read them or make sense of them (well… sometimes I make chatbot read my notes in order to train it on whatever I need help troubleshooting)
Before I started keeping a hot_log.txt file every single install of Linux I ever ran was a unique snowflake and no two systems were ever the same

I mean… We will learn to make our rigs last, do more with less, and carry on optimizing Linux builds. Anything you can run today, you’ll be able to run tomorrow. And there is enough backlog to keep us all busy until at least 2028… Be honest with yourself lol

didn’t another german state already try this and fail pretty spectacularly?? cost them WAY more money and then they ended up rolling back to m$??
given that, this is fantastic news! it’s good to see people learn from past failed implementations, hopefully learn from their mistakes, and try again instead of just blaming it on bad software

- Comment on Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead 5 weeks ago:
this seems incredibly short sighted… the current situation exists because there is a large amount of infrastructure and data centres being built. once that infrastructure is built, the demand will return to normal… OR once the bubble bursts, the market will be flooded with used ram from failed data centres… aliexpress will be selling ram at a dollar a gig when all these data centres flop

I talked myself out of upgrading to 64gb six months ago when I still could have grabbed 32gb of ddr4 for like $80… Kicking myself over that decision

I needed a 32gb kit of ddr4 about 18 months ago… $80
I needed a 32gb kit of ddr4 last week, $160!!! Wtf! Okay… Let’s click order and if it drops I can just return it…
Checked this morning, $225!!!

- Comment on Windows 11 could actually become the same kind of mistake Sony made with the PS3 1 month ago:
Ps3 barely squeaked out a win in the last year or two, the 360 was the leading console for most of that generation.
Looking back now, I have a modded 360, and any titles that came out for both systems, the Xbox usually was the better version. The modding process for Xbox was a huge pain in the ass though, while the ps3 is super easy to run a software exploit and unsigned code (aka ethically sources ISOs)
7th gen was such a great generation of consoles. they hold up because hd and they are still super fun because no micro transaction bullshit
