Flagship performance, about 7 years of updates, but costs what a mid range android phone costs? Yeah it’s a banger of a deal. A similarly priced android phone would have half the performance and MAYBE half the updates.

If you just want a basic but nice phone to do modern phone things it’s hard to go wrong.

File > print?

You can still right click on Mac OS. Two finger press on the trackpad, control left click, or just right click on any normal mouse.

Not even a laptop?

I would have done the same right now as an adult.

with WSL it runs X11, I’m curious if they’ll ever port wayland to WSL. Probably a lot harder to do than X11.

Namecheap has random number only xyz domains for like a dollar so I have one of those.

3rd party batteries are rarely dangerous. They usually just kinda suck. They lie about their capacity, they degrade quicker than OEM.

Your battery is at the point where I’d start to consider getting a replacement. Just know that if you sort by price low to high you could get a battery worse than your current one. But buying expensive doesn’t mean you’ll get a good one either. They’re kinda just hit or miss.

Started when I was like 14 but I just didn’t care enough to get the license until 18.

Wifi 6E on my Intel network cards has been a PITA on any distro I’ve used. 6ghz either doesn’t work at all, or it constantly switches from 2.4/5 to 6ghz, then back to the point that Wifi is unusable, and I have to manually disable it. AX200, AX201, AX211 all suffering.

This meme gets crustier and crustier every time I see it. It’s amazing after all these years people still post this.

It’s stinky and smelly and smells bad.

That’s basically what like 90% of mobile games are if you don’t pay.

Are there any other cases you can think of where a custom-printed item is better than the myriad of mass-produced plastic items?

None at all. 3D prints are almost always worse than injection moulded plastic. Only if you need a very specific custom thing. Or it’s just convenient/fun to make your own.

I’ve gone through an FX8120, 4560k, 4790k, 1800x, 3700x, 5800x3d, and finally 9800x3d all on the same cooler. Even if I do a big upgrade why would I want to change it if it’s working fine?

Finally this weekend it’s getting demoted to my server and I’m upgrading to a D15 G2. But that’s only because I’m upgrading my server and it’s 10 year old heatsink doesn’t work on AM5.

No it’s not. 95c is the target temperature on anything 7000 series and newer. Google says the 5700x throttles at 90.

9800x3d is fine on air as lon as you get a nice cooler. I’m personally anti AIO because I don’t want to deal with the maintenance. I’m still using my NH-D14 after 15 years. Under absolute full load the CPU gets hot, but I only game on the computer so it never stays hot for long. An actually modern cooler would be plenty.

At work we have a 9950x running of a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 140 and under 100% load it cant maintain full boost speeds, but it hovers around its base clock speed.

I love trackballs, but no amount of mouse acceleration can make them not a pain in the ass on multiple high res monitors. I love em, but I just can’t use em.

All else being equal I prefer foss software over proprietary. But I use the best tool for the job. If it’s proprietary then so be it.

Seems like every damn phone cases these days has a wrist strap attachment. Even if you attach it to the selfie stick, then the selfie stick to your wrist you’re good.

Also your phone is probably water proof, a camera probably isn’t. That includes splashes.
