I’m just happy they give the option to turn off the ai overview as a setting.

I’ll try it again. They’re not mine so I didn’t get too much time with them. But the mids are indeed lacking.

That’s my current pair if you want to see a frequency response chart.

Hikvision is app only which is really annoying. I wouldn’t recommend it. (it also crashes my emulator for some reason)

That’s how I eqed the set I borrowed.
- Comment on Sony’s TV business is being taken over by TCL 1 week ago:
Maybe. My current set is a tired pair of Monoprice BT600ANC. I found that the high end of the xm4 lacking compared to the bt600anc. Noise canceling was about the same level as the 600anc.

Idk if I used a really bad set of wh1000xm4s but they sucked. Too bassy and muddy. Like more than they should have. I hope their studio headphones are much better in that regard.

I really need to get a new display replacement for my old vaio f series laptop. The screen layers are doing the funny vinegar thing. That and some sort of ssd. Maybe a USB Dom or some msata thing with a converter board.
- Comment on What are your technology mispredictions? 2 weeks ago:
Quite a few phones have desktop modes now, and they work alright. I wish my phone had it. My iphone 16 supports USB dp alt mode but only a direct mirror.
- Comment on What are your technology mispredictions? 2 weeks ago:
There’s a few Android phones that have it, old and new. I have an iPhone 16 at the moment and while it works with a dp-alt mode dock, it only mirrors the screen and nothing else. I think there’s some things you can do to trick the phone into enabling stage manager and other ipad features.

In the modern day, I agree. Dunno about 30 years ago.

Absolutely real on the thermofisher one. We had one die once. I have a photo of it actively dying of death early this year. It’s about to get carted off as we got a rebate for recycling our old freezers.
That day was funny bc I was able to leave early that day but I was waiting for my sister to finish her classes before we went home. So I was playing TF2 on my laptop using my work dock before my supervisor’s supervisor walked in. Luckily for me she did not care.
We transferred all the samples to the one beside it.
- Comment on Don't throw away your old PC—it makes a better NAS than anything you can buy 1 month ago:
They make m.2 to SATA adapters that have like 10 SATA ports. A laptop motherboard in a case with one of those would be very interesting. I have plans for one but I need to buy some parts (keyboard and laptop fan).

Yeah, it was an 860 Evo in an external SSD. It was like half the speeds of ntfs

Is it just my experience but exfat is so much slower on windows than ntfs.

- Comment on Opinions on Jurassic Park as a Zoo 3 months ago:
Anything with proteins can get prion disease. Since they’re reptiles and their genome is a lot older than ours, there’s a pretty good chance something that affects us might not affect them in terms of proteins. I don’t think birds get prion diseases bc it hasn’t been really well studied yet.

What about the monolithic socs? Idle power on my 5825u is better than my i5-1135g7. My i7-8650u is in between.

They can’t even do that anymore. sgx had a bunch of vulnerabilities and as a result, that service has been disabled.

- Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025 5 months ago:
I wonder if the amd models from framework perform as well as other oems in terms of battery life. The other guy in the thread said that his 2 Intel laptops perform worse due flawed firmware.
- Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025 5 months ago:
Ooof. Only time I had that issue was when I used a 35 watt laptop adapter with my old HP laptop. It wanted a 65 or 90 watt adapter.
- Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025 5 months ago:
Since the cooling system is self contained in the module, you shouldn’t have that issue.

Industry first Nvidia card? Like it’s a bit thin but that’s the closest I can get to “erm actually”
- Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025 5 months ago:
Only argument I could make is that this is the first gpu module that has a self contained cooling system. Older mxm cards were just the PCB.
- Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025 5 months ago:
I have a Sony vaio F series laptop from 2000 and it apparently has an mxm ATi Rage Mobility M1. So I can confirm that at least.
- Comment on Framework unveils a second-generation Framework Laptop 16 with a swappable Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU, an industry first, shipping in November 2025 5 months ago:
That said, the cooling system is contained in the module. Afaik the mxm modules were just PCBs.
