Lurking noob here, thinking of upgrading from my ancient FX-6300 to a 2673v3 and pairing it with a cheap Chinese X99 mobo. I'm too poor to upgrade my RAM, so I'm stuck with my 2x8GB DDR3 sticks.Is this combo gonna be a bottleneck fest or can it actually game decently? Should I look into other options instead? Trying to keep it as cheap as possible, and honestly, the DDR4 gains seem pretty meh.
>>100220441>2673v3isnt that one kinda slow in single thread? is only 2.4ghz 3.1 turbosingle thread is important for many games,
>>100220400Depends on the manufacturerSome of what they sell are refurbs sold as new though. In cases of some gaming mice I think I've even read they just take the shell and put shitty components inside
>>100220511 >>100220441how much is it anyway?
>>100194044>>100194820>>100194849You were right, touchscreen monitors on Ali are basically the same price if not cheaper than the non touch ones on AmazonUsuallly I'd just go with Ali that being the case but it's just that damn warranty concern that I'd end up with a paperewight. So I dunno, better product with no warranty, or worse product with warranty when the port likely fails on my ass again?Anyone else bought a chinese shit portable monitor?
Any recommendations on 4g routers or usb sticks?
>>100220904Where do you live? Do you want to spoof the fact you're using a router from your ISP? Do you need any band aggregation? Open-source software? Finally, what's your budget?
>>100221178spain, my main use is in a rural area with only the 4g band 20 at 900mhz, they usually dont care but i like to learn about the options, is to connect to a gli travel router, and cheap but decent. Outdoors can also be nice but not neededSpeed is not that important, like at all, and i am limited on the max bandwidth until they change the cell tower by the end of next year. i saw many 150mbs and that is more that i hope to get
>>100219879t. chuzalle
Are coins worth it or am I wasting my time collecting them?
>>100220535lol @ 20 bucks for a cpu, what a joke. mobo's gonna set me back 50 tho. anything's an upgrade from that fx6300 trash. was hopin to reuse my ddr3 ram but ig it's time to upgrade. not like i'm a hardcore gamer or anythin
>>100221290I bought a cheap Olax Wifi router, AX 6 to be precise, because it's capable of spoofing IMEI and TTL, thus making an ISP think i use a mobile phone. It is 100mbit capped, but hey, at least it works. I don't trust this chinkware, hence why everything routes through pfsense box. Useful for illicit/spam activities.If you don't care about the spoofing aspect of a modem — newer Huawei/ZTE sticks are pretty decent. Older versions such as MF823D or E3372h can spoof IMEI and TTL thanks to custom firmware, but require constant rebooting because of their shitty SoC. >gli travel routerIt uses OpenWRT under the hood and comes with ModemManager preinstalled. Any modem will work. I'd suggest you to install vanilla OpenWRT though, Gl. Inet is notoriously bad at writing good software.https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wan/wwan/startLastly, if you want to achieve >500 mbit, you have to go the DIY route. I'm planning to use Dual-Q H721 in the future.
>>100221328chuzo /iemg/ escape
>>100221589Forgot to mention, Base station is actually the one who controls band aggregation. If you can't get a certain band — you have to use a wideband LTE antenna.
>>100219884>Anyone know about fpvit's fun!aliexpress is fine. watch some bardwell and kabab videos if you want to know more. don't fall for the digital transmission meme, analog is the cheaper, easier way to go
>>100221636Thanks! I'm looking at the mobula6 but curious, why is it sold out on all the American sites like getfpv, newbeedrone, raceday etc. ? I don't mind Ali or banggood but it takes a while with shipping ofc because its coming from China.
What pc parts are worth buying from Ali?

>>100221587I'm still using my fx8320. Same AM3+ socket, basically the 8 cores version of the 6 cores 6300.Yes it's much slower than today's ryzens and shit. But it still werks.Honnestly if you're cheap but still want to upgrade, you might want to consider buying a fx-83*0 and keeping your mobo and ram.What do you even want to upgrade for?

Bought that Spider-man mask and dont even know why
>>100219970Play a GBA Castlevania on it
>>100223414Or even better play Symphony of the Night on it.>>100221788It depends on what you want to do with them but you can pretty much buy a whole pc on aliexpress, except the monitor and case (cause they're too big and bulky) and maybe the psu (cause I dunno if there's any good chink psus)
>>100223350which one?
>>100221988>What madman would buy a chink desk>Everything is already from China>>100223350Probably cheaper than somewhere else. Now you can be Spider-Man
>>100221988That's going to be the flimsiest of flimsy things. It's going to fall over from the a strong gust of wind or an especially strong fart.
>>100221589 >>100221618and how is done the diy route? i know there are some devices with m2 slots for cards, but how will you do that? or you want to do a full pc and a pcie to m2 adapter?
why is this adapter so uncommon? I can't find it locally at any hardware store. I could convert M24 to G3/4 and then G3/4 to G1/2, but a direct adapter would such a no brainer, yet I have to order it from chinkland.
>>100225321btw what I want to do is hook up a shower hose in place of a tap aerator. I can't believe I'm the first person to think of this?
>>100223721Something that won't break in a month. Ram seems like a no brainer. Idk about the CPU cooler
when looking for mic foam to handle plosives should I be looking for specific materials or specifications?

aliexpress vip seems terrible. bet the coupons dont even stack with others during sales
>>100219782has anyone here faced this 'disconnecting loop' issue when using bluetooth earphones on your chink phone? pocophone x5 pro and moondrop space travel in my caseboth are brand new and the buds work like a charm on my old phone but this shiny piece of shit x5 keeps turning bluetooth off then on again at random whenever I try to listen to something. asking here cause I'm running out of options
>>100228286sucks bro dunno what it could be. maybe defective earbuds or a weird compatability issue. can you connect the earphones to other BT device like PC or other phone?
>>100229098yeah I tried them on my old xiaomi phone and it just works. I also tried my brother's own earbuds, same model, on this x5 and the same thing happensit's a pretty common issue apparently. there are a ton of threads about it on forums and leddit but I found no solution. fucking hell
>>100228286This seems to be an issue with the phone or firnware, if you search x5 pro Bluetooth disconnecting you can find threads on reddit of other people with the same issue.Try using airplane mode while using the space travels, and see if it still happens.
>>100220400just depends. mostly chink brands are what is officially sold. if it's western iems like sennheiser / shure they are fakes. you're probably also not getting any new iphones or samsungs. dont be an idiot. stick with official, well established stores & sellers
>>100228286Did you disable any & all battery management shit? Sounds like the phone for some reason thinks there is nothing connected to bluetooth and turns it off to save power. But that's just a guess from me
>>100219970was this the handheld the other anon disputed and got partial refund back because the colors were washed out or something?anyway, i know where you're coming from. i was considering a 2000mah battery for my nintendo ds but opted to get a $2 cable instead to see if i'd play the thingi did not play the thing

Are chink running shoes good or should I just get like Salomones or something?Where can I find good recs for running shoes in general?

>>100232106I bought a bunch of generic crap like motion sensor light, electric screwdriver, gayming mouse, weebshit stickers and pins and keychains But didn't think it's worth posting
>>100232222nice digitshow's the electric screwdriver?
>>100232262The magnetic bits can't hold shit. But otherwise it's pretty gud strength wise. I expected way worse torsion.The flashlight for its size is really handy too but in hindsight it would have been smarter to buy one that uses regular batteries instead of being USB-C chargable.Besides that, Chang by accident added a random blue rope keychain to one of my order. I also ordered a bunch of different 1$ wristwatch straps because the basic one that came with the one I have is silicone and fucking sucks for any kind of skin breathability and gets sweaty and disgusting when doing exercise.
I bought a YG108 mech keyboard case and it just arrived yesterday, a few of the sockets seem to be faulty or lose, the store told me to check the pcb to see if they're loose but I don't really have any experience with soldering or dealing with pcbs so should I try to fix it myself and risk fucking it up and maybe even losing the warranty or should I just refund it. How bad can a no experience retard fuck it up..?
>>100232351What's the best adhesive method to use on these stickers for a laptop where I would need to take them off without too much hassle?
>>100232720iso alc will get rid of superglue, i would glue around the edges lightly for thisyou can also use b7000 which is used in woodcrafting, glass and mobile phones. it becomes loose with heat and doesn't leave residue
>>100221589>>100221618funny that you talk about those, we had a cell signal outage last night, couldnt do the news.consider me interested too.Gonna do the news after lunch
>>100232917>we had a cell signal outage last night, couldnt do the news.unacceptable. You should be prepared to move states or even countries to do the news.

>>100225321Last time I had to do plumbing, it turned out my local hardware store had the correct single piece adapter as.... unlisted. Yeah.....>>100231763If it has a picture of them bending it, it has no midsole. Essentially making it a pair of sandals.Also make sure you are buying with replaceable soles, so you can gett a higher quality one locally. The catch is that you can't buy think shoes with carbonfiber midsole yet. I think it would be a better choice to buy Hoka One or Aesics Magic speed if you want that for asphalt running

Attack Shark X3 just arrived after about 10 days. Initial impression is pretty solid. The build quality is good, no squeaking or rattling. The clicks feel light and crisp, scroll wheel is average, side buttons feel pretty good. Shape is similar to Razer Viper Mini, only slightly less curved on the sides and taller. The skates feel like ass, as is common for chink mice, but I've got some dot skates for that. Despite the advertised 49 grams, my unit dials in at ~53 grams, not a big deal desu. The weight balance feels a bit front heavy, which can be solved by opening the mouse and moving the battery to the back. Overall, not bad for 23 euro (bought during a sale). Use the Kysona M600 software (https://github.com/SLAzurin/attack-shark-x3-fix) to set the debounce time to 4ms. I also recommend getting some dot skates with it, these (https://aliexpress.com/item/1005004716716663.html) are easily the best value.
I want to buy an edc bag (laptop, charger, a4 papers, snacks and shit). How are chink pic related fakes? There is also some more official replicas under the Wexley brand. Or, are there any other backpack recommendations with lots of pockets that can pass in an office environment, are available in eu and don't cost their weight in gold?
>>100234846Korin has some decent backpacks for an ok price, I have a couple of packs from their kickstarters.
>>100234846I remember some anon bought some fake AER bag and it didn't really sound worth it.Do you have Decathlon where you live, they're cheap and good but might be a bit more sporty than you'd like.
>>100235118I went to Decathlon to buy the Escape 500 the other day, but it was just too damn ugly to pull the trigger. It's not just sporty, they only had the black one and it looked worse than chinkshit. Good advice tho, I really wanted to like it.
>>100234846For that kind of price, I'd look into tomtocIMO they are pretty good quality
is choice shipping the same as standard shipping?

All available models are apparently the same aside from some vendor customization, I got pic related because it has a cap to protect it unlike the rest.
>>100237444>Automatic night lightI should mention, it turns on automatically in the darkness, but there's no motion sensor, so it's just on all night.Will you dare keep chink shit plugged 24/7?
>>100237630>Will you dare keep chink shit plugged 24/7?absolutely no
>>100237444>night lightI grew up with a late 90s version of one.So no sensor, but a very faint red glow that had quite good coverage. And its great, so you stumble across the house in total darkness, find the bathroom, and the bathroom is as dimly lit as its possible to make out shapes.And that would be my rebuttal: The chinkshit one is most likely too low in RDI, meaning it has to be somewhat bright. 40 lumens might be 2-3x as much light as it needed if the light was higher quality.

>wall charger that came wth my chinkphone (Umidigi)Safe or not?The phone is gone (I used it for a while, it was shit but ok for the paltry money, then I accidentally dropped it in water, is kill. F.).I never used the wall charger because the pins were for a different region, and I had plenty of others.I was doing a cleanout and was about to throw it but then I saw I have a good region adapter plug.So on paper it's a decent enough single port 5V 2A 10W single port USB wall charger.In testing I found it actually delivers 14W, so 2.8A.Safe to use? Or is it likely to be a safety horror show inside, a fire waiting to happen, and I should throw it?
>>100243497I've used some really dodgy chargers and yet I've never had a fire or sparks or anything. If they're really shitty, they'll just break.

So what's a good category of items to go for when it comes to the first buy discount?
>>100245368the chinkshit you need
>>100245368Things from AE you actually need and can't find elsewhere (or for a decent price). Make sure to make it count since you only get one by using it on whatever item in your cart gives the largest discount (but check the normal price since certain sellers overprice things to inflate the discount rate and get a larger compensation from AE).
>>100241595good idea, ive also thought about putting them actually inside the front yard rather than outside at the gates, since you can actually get your arm through the gate to ring, but you wouldnt be able to actually do wide movements such as hitting motions to try to destroy them, or it would be awkward enough to deter most peoplethe problem is the walls inside are pourous stone, as opposed to the gate which is some kind of metal, so i dont think these would stick very well

Intending to get a chink device but info given by a seller says only 64GB is supported for MicroSD, which would be SDXC. Another listing that pretty much looks like the same thing says 128GB is supported, but SDXC's max is 2TB. Can I get a 256GB just fine and it'll work? Post to /sqt/ instead?
Annoyingly, the screen protector is starting to develop hairline cracks on my phone, however I really don't want to buy anything until the sale in June.
>>100247928what's the device? a 64gb limit in 2024 sounds very odd you could ask seller 1 to confirm the specsmaybe you could link the device here in case of reviews or other anons using it.
>>100248291https://www.ebay.com/itm/265305349692 64https://www.ebay.com/itm/186350863962 128https://www.ebay.com/itm/165526846867 128https://www.ebay.com/itm/156172573643 64Admittedly guess I confused myself looking at multiple sellers having one of the four variants. Like second listing being sold by someone else and thought it said 64. But anyway these devices seem a bit dated, Google'ing seems to show various devices like phones only listing what was available to SDXC at the time like 64, but then 128+ worked. Though it's like some also say it didn't, maybe they didn't format right.
>>100248572you could try just asking the sellers, might be useless but could get some infothey do all look like different devices though even if they are very similar. no harm in asking /sqt/ too if you think it will help, it does seem 128gb would still work but I personally can't say for sure

>>100243497Umidigi is cheap shit but they work
>>100250030Uh that's sooner than I thought, thanks.
Does anyone have experience with home automation/smart lighting shit from Ali? Is it a terrible idea to join the chinese botnet?If so should I just buy an raspberry pi and fuck around with home assistant until I get bored of the idea.
>>100250452If you are tech savvy and don't mind putting some work in get all zigbee compatible stuff. You can buy a zigbee hub in various form factors for $20-$40 and use that to control all your smart shit. There are a number of foss software options that let you control everything though they do take a little effort to configure.If you have money and want shit to be easy buy all Phillips hue compatible stuff and one of their hubs and run only their gear the bulbs are usually way cheaper in store then online.Otherwise xiaomi has a pretty strong smart ecosystem, but im not sure how well the apps will support foreign languages and lots of the stuff will be designed for 220v.
what a good usb cheap endoscope ? could those on ali be 720p for video at least ? I know there are some depstech ones but dont want to spend that much, will they work on pc just fine ? some review say you get chinked since hd only works using their chink paid 'pro' app >>100249319i fucking hate these niggers just posting these "i got the parcel but have not tested yet, here have 5 stars" reviews
Can someone recommend an HDMI video capture device that can record video from TV HDMI box that is most likely encrypted. Boomer dad doesn't know how to use computer but needs to be able to capture his hockey games at atleast 720P with a push of a button or remote control, then I have to transfer for him to some media so he can rewatch.
>>100251504Oh and his budget is sub $50
Can someone explain me what zhang magic it is? It's literally the same thing from the same storehttps://aliexpress.com/item/1005003601508703.htmlhttps://aliexpress.com/item/1005006156101822.html
>>100251504You need to buy an hdmi splitter, that will strip the copy protection, then plug one of the splits into the tv and the other into a usb capture card. Plug the usb capture card into a pc and use it to capture. Making it work with a remote or being able to schedule recordings will be a complex project. But just making it capture will be relatively easy.
>>100251531zhang is probably manually raising prices before the sale starts since the first listing after the "sale discount" drops to $29 just like the second onehowever the second one also drops a bit to $25 so who knows
>>100220904USB sticks overheat and stop working or throttle, (((merchants))) overprice them, bought microdick hap ax lte6 instead for less money.
>>100251531Shops tend to list the same thing at multiple prices somewhat frequently. They usually advertise the more expensive one and hope people buy it
>>100251504Has he tried to check whether those already are being recorded and put out online on some local tracker first? It's not so uncommon as you may think
>>100251696Would they try to pull some bullshit if i order the cheaper listing anyway or they don't care as long as it works?
>>100251639He has no idea how to turn on a pc. Basically I need some device like a chink elgato clone with a button on it that he can press to record to usb or sd or whatever. I then take the mp4 and convert it so he can watch his hockey games with intermissions and intro outro commentary. I tried downloading games for him but he doesn't like that the commentary between periods was cut.
>>100251698Yup I tried. He doesn't like that the commentary between periods was cut.
>"sale">Prices go up €3
>>100251639I've been asking for a splitter recommendation for a month here, no answers.Not all splitters will strip HDCP
>>100251884welcome to judaism
>>100251886I remember some anon's post years ago where he bought a lot of the same HDMI splitter in the double digits then started testing them one by one and in the end only like a third of them could bypass HDCP despite all the items being the same, at least on the outside.
>>100251884Just use the DUMBGWEILO coupon for €3 off :^)
>>100251938Yet there are still people recommending "oh just buy a stripper lol". Yes I'm mad

It's kinda sad that 30 years back you could connect a vhs recorder to tv, set the time and had stuff recorded and now it's apparently a huge problem
>>100252125You vill be cucked by DRM and you vill like it.
>>100251956It doesn't work?
>>100252125Yup. My dad would record his hockey games on vhs until about 5 years ago when the vcr pretty much died and no longer reads or plays. He has a large collection of bruins playoff game on vhs tapes. He would buy cheap movies from the thrift store for a quarter, tape over the tab and record over the tapes. Then relabel and add to his collection.
>>100252210Try DUMBLAOWAI instead. DUMBGWEILO only works for items from HK sellers.
>>100251732>they don't care as long as it works?This, if you take the time to find the cheaper listing good for you they make a sale either way
>>100251774Your dad sounds like an annoying asshole who needs to figure shit out for himself or learn how to compromise.
>>100247077You have a fundamental lack of understanding of how computers work.
I want a side monitor with lower power consumption for during outages. 1080p would be fine, something like 15-17", what brands/keywords/etc should I be looking at? V if chinkshit can't be trusted here I'm open to other recs
>>100253314I'd DIY one by buying a controller pcb + some eDP panel salvaged from a 15" laptop.
>>100231829Looks a tad bit too realistic.
I'm trying to find a damn pair of single blade hobby cutters and forgot how so many stoes on Ali use the same name/variations of the same name.
>>100253314What is the usecase even? If the outages are short your UPS should be able to deal with it. If they are long consider a craptop or a diesel generator.
>>100253534The usecase is to keep using my desktop for my work. The outages aren't short enough for an ups and a diesel generator is not feasible because I'd have to run cables through 2 stories to not dump noxious fumes home (plus it would kind of paint a target on me, they aren't discrete at all) >>100253386What kind of controller are we talking about? And is the only thing that matters from the monitor side that the interface it uses is EDP?
>>100248572The limit is probably imposed by the MCU that camera is using or maybe even the firmware, and not SD vs SDXC.
>>100251794WTF would anyone want that? Worst part of a hockey game.Also, how many times is he going to rewatch? Because nhl66.ir has full broadcasts from the past few days. All you need is an IP (aka VPN) outside of Canada or USA.
>>100252125PVRs are still a thing.
Anyone know of a decent chink digital microscope? Need something for SMD work.
>>100239832how the fuck does that work
>>100253840any common outages are an immediate ground for ups unless you really hate your hardware
>>100254907it doesn't
>>100219782is it true that by using Aliexpress we are getting and being sent cancers and tumors?
anyone who bought project recently? any mini review?
>>100254935Yes. Obviously.
>>100241624>letting trash juice go to waste
>>100254907you can see in one of the last ltt videos that i dont want to link. but basically small microphones enters into resonance by ultrasounds, making them vibrate which disorts everything. But doesnt work for big microphones or in some orientations
any actually good ALI reviewer? i enjoy the anons reviews the mostmost are just obvious ads from tech tubers
>>100254938*projector
>>100254996no. the internet is just one big ad platform now. it's over.
>>100254144He was an old school archivist. 2 walls of VHS archived games. Nhl66.ir only has a day of games then they delete even with vpn. Also no download option.
>>100251174>i fucking hate these niggers just posting these Same, when i'm looking at a review i actually want to view information about the product. It's even worse when it's the only review there is.
>>100254996bee the change you want to see
>>100255573Fair enough.I wonder how easy it would be too cook up a script to download every new game from nhl66. Do you have coding experience?
I am doing AFATT, all French all the time, and I want to buy some prints of French artworks to hang on my walls so I can transport myself into FranceIs aliexpress a good place to buy these? I was looking at a store in my city and they were selling prints for hundreds of dollars and they were all modern paintings
>>100254935Yes. Every product shipped from China includes at least one cancer and/or tumour. It's part of China's plan to take over the world.
>>100254918Lead acid batteries suck ass for anything that isn't a short outage because they'll go to shit if they discharge too much. Obviously I have a battery solution in place because outage = no electricity. But lead acid is shit for anything that isn't "immediately turn off everything so they can have a clean shutdown"
>>100252081now i feel bad wasting paper on stupid shit like printing frogs and spurdos
>>100255825>>100251174Theyre point farming because they have no better options in the bleak plane of Brasil.
I can't stop buying new gamepads
>>100254071I think those could have been a batch from around 2019 though, 1TB already came out by then. I know it's in the name for chinkshit, but that does sound rather shit.
>>100249319This is a very common practice here in Brazil, for some unknown reason.Just dumb people spreading a dumb comportament, like a meme.
>>100255825I don't even bother to review or rate things anymore unless it's something obscure.Any time I've gone into any sort of detail it remains buried by the "works good lol" ones and later disappears entirely.
>>100234846I got this messenger bag ( leather flap model) off temu since ali doesn't ship it herehttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005552484873.htmlIf that's all your carrying, I'd recommend it. Mark ryden got some inoffensive looking backpacks. Never got one but the few I seen were rather pricey
>>100219782any suggestion for multiple cool chink gifts that look/feel more expensive than they actually are ?have to get a gift for multiple distant relatives and don't want to spend a lot of money
>>100258679plushies, wallets, wireless earphones, multitools, silk pillowcases, meme design socks, gamepad controllers
>>100251504>>100251774I had a very similar situation where my parents wanted to be able to record TV without any bullshit. I bought a splitter + HDMI capture device like was already suggested to you.Splitter: https://tech2gopty.com/products/techole-hdmi-splitter-1in-2out-3d-4kCapture: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09KGQ36WJ/?th=1I didn't buy the splitter from that random bullshit website, that just the first place I found with the exact model I bought. That one 100% strips the HDCP off the signal. I bought like 5 different splitters and 3 of them stripped HDCP, the keyword to look for circa 2022 was "EDID".The capture device comes with a remote and you can schedule 5 one-shot or recurring times to automatically start recording at. You can record to either an SD card or a USB mass storage device (ex. external HDD). The quality is "alright", the compression is definitely noticeable if you're looking for it but it's good enough for boomers (exhibit A: my parents)
>>100258070theres always this one faggot posting like 5 images of lula memes about communists getting fucked in the ass by import taxes on the reviews, but somehow he keeps buying shit and paying the taxes himself kek, I swear I have seen his shitty images in like 10 reviews>>100234846if you get one of these >>100258663 just make sure to give it a wash, that stuff is pvc and stinks of plastic like hell, I got a similar one a week ago
>>100258023what's your favourite, I'm looking for one
pls wizard of chink gamepads, we must know...
>>100253314Monitors are already low power consumption. If that is what you really want, you could t ry an source an eink monitor. But its a better bet to increase the size of your UPS 3-5 times.
I'm too retarded to understand these captchas. I'm officially dumber than a computer.
>>100253314an external monitor with usb-c input can run off a powerbank rated 35w or higher iircyou can also just use a tablet and mirror it with spacedesk
>>100259257I've tried a bunch of meme gamepads and I honestly think the 8bitdo pro 2 is the best (even when compared to the 8bitdo ultimate controller I also own.) The pro 2 just has a great feel, the d-pad is fantastic and the triggers strike a balance between firm and soft (good for retro games)I've also had a go on the GULIkit KK3 controller and whilst the sticks feel nice, it also costs as much as 2-3 pro 2 controllers, and I think I'd rather just get those instead.This is also in comparison to the main console controllers (Xbox, PS5, Switch) and after having two xbox controllers fail on me (and the bluetooth being garbage), I've vowed never again to touch that bullshit.

Decided to spoil myself for my birthday. The ST-A3 seller has good reviews with images and reviews for the entire store and the cutters, so I feel good about them. The R4 is probably a gamble but the page has reviews if the seller does not have any I could find.
good siting cushion for fat fuck that will press down anything after some time?
>>100258023can you recommend one with gyro for emulating wii and nintendo stuff + playing gyro games on pc?
>>100261791they dont look that bad from pictures
>>100261791I'm afraid they will not last 3 months of casual use, but I might fall for it anyway
I just bought some Juhor ram as well, fuck. is it worth having 64 GB of DDR5? the other stuff I want anyway
>>100263371not him but iirc the chink (but good) brands that have it are 8bitdo, gamesir and gulikit. I think the cheapest with it, but i'm not 100% sure, is the gamesir t4/t4 pro, it's 30/40 bucks. Others have it on their more expensive controllers, 70/80 bucks expensive
>>100263131happy birthday for whenever your birthday is my dude
>>100263131be sure to look into changing firmware on that r4, especially if it has a year written on it (usually that red text on top right) cause if it has it will stop working if you go over that year. As in, if it says 2024 it'll stop working come 2025, but it's purely a software thing you can remove
>>100263601Thanks Anon. It's today. I was pleasantly surprised that the Choice sale was a thing.>>100263612I had heard something like that, still I'll make a note. Someone in the reviews said to grab software for the card from some youtubers discord, but I was just going to ask the homebrew general on /vg/ to be safe. Thanks Anon!
>>100263788>It's todayHappy Birthday! Have a good one
>>100263394Saturation is goodContrast is badThere is a lot of pixel artifacts visible to the camera alone, on top of various halation artefacts. But then again.... a canvas and the FOV is always amazing.
>>100263131Happy birthday, Anon!
Whats a good not overpriced powerbank? I want it to have an integrated usb c cable, dont care for apple conpatibility. Fast charging, 10-20000 capacity, not too bulky, if it can charge my galaxy watch that would be perfect, but not a strict requirement.
>>100263587I've only ever tried the gyro on the old 8bitdo SF30 pro and it was kinda shit, I think the chinks only add them so the controllers will work with the Switch.
>>100262359Data centers use generators
>>100264916Yes, but to bridge the time between power failure and the generators being up and running they use lead-acid UPSs.
>>100264971not that anon, but yes you are correct. thats were lead-acid excels: short bursts of high amperage. and depending on the data center tier, they are required to have multiple generators and multiple upss as redundancy in case on does not work when its needednobody in their right mind is going to replace their lead acid car battery with some sort of lithium based chemistry one, disregard what idiots online say about this, you do not want to get to your car in a cold morning and the thing wont start. not to mention that most car batteries live inside the bonnet so a very wide range of temperatures are experienced (from -10c ambient to +80c when the car is running)
Any good braided usb-c cables in aliexpress? Everything looks the fucking same
>>100264971Yes but that anon already said a generator is undesirable for them so the situation is different because his ups battery would discharge. On the other hand data center will have a different usage pattern because the batteries will only be used for a brief moment
>>100247290>HDMI's refresh rate limitI thought HDMI 2.0 could handle up to 240HZ in 1080p?The monitor literally doesn't give you an option to use a higher refresh rate if you don't use a display port cable so I thought simply by bullshitting it with some sort of adapter I could bypass that restriction
>>100266034Nevermind I'm fucking retarded, spent hours trying to look for shit in the monitor settings only to find out I had to use advanced windows monitor settings
>>100261192business days bro...>>100261457the OG of course: Aliexpress>>100263131happy birthday anon!>>100263361probably gel or multi-material reinforced, not just memory foam. iirc there is knockoff "purple" gel which is supposedly nice. or idk maybe gel stuff will completely distort whereas you should be dealing with flattened memory foam for your fatass idk>>100265479what is a good cable supposed to be? most are fine, toocki and baseus are often on the cheaper end or found in choice deals. pretty thick and premium feeling depending on the exact model
Does anyone know a good reputable Aliexpress seller that sells a lot of different small things like adapters, cables and such?
>>100266654>reputable Aliexpress sellerYou don't get how it works do you?You search, you sort by total orders, and then see if you are willing to risk a housefire or not.
I wanna upgrade my i7-6700K to something either more powerful or more efficient. Are the chink stores useful for my plans? I wanna keep the GPU but maybe upgrade my 2133 DDR4 16GB RAM (2x 8GB in each)
>>100261152I'm going to order myself a Flydigi Vader3 Pro tonight before it sells out again. I'm itchy to try the mechanical face buttons and d-pad.
>>100266859New CPU have different socket, you have to change everything except for the GPU. You can only get an i7 7700/K or the T version (35W) but it's like a normal 6700
>>100266654general tech brands: ugreen, baseus, essager, toocki, uslion, topk, orico, qcysome brands have better or worse reputation in general
>>100266859Fyi don't get an i7 7700/k, replace everything Is the most economical and reasonable decision
>>100266920yeah should I upgrade my motherboard and if yes to which socket?
>>100266966yeah the 7th gen is sold here for $75-$200 here so not worth it imo
>>100266597>business days bro...>15 days from purchase>14 full days after purchase
>>100267041date of purchase != shipment date
Any good waterproof laptop bags?
>>100266969Yes you have to replace motherboard, CPU and RAM. If you want to get an Intel CPU then get something newer like an i3 12100 or 13100 it's a quad-core but they're way better than any previous 4 core from Intel. you better ask the PC building general, I'm not an expert but it's not worth the upgrade to an i7 7700k. The 8th and 9th gen share the same socket but on 6th and 7th gen motherboards won't work.I think the socket is lga1700 for 12th and 13th gen CPUs
>>100267112Btw I was in your exact situation with an i7 6700 and I got an i7 7700 and there wasn't any improvement, I sold everything at a loss and got a new motherboard, a used CPU and the cheapest RAM from AliExpress

>>100266859I'd say upgrade to AM4, you can keep the ram (albeit being slow but not a dealbreaker) and a Ryzen 5600 on Ali costs like $70 nowadays.

>>100267384The entire coin collecting craze in the 80s was basically started by conmen who were buying coins for ridiculous prices from each other and then starting catalogs that sell coins and coin auction houses and coin grading services.It's actually some of the exact same people behind the current videogame collection hype cycle. Who again now own video game auction houses and video game grading services and bought sealed copies of mario from each other for millions of dollars.

Is there much difference between Temu and Aliexpress pricing? I've only used Ali a bit, but after mentioning the sizable discounts on Ali to my Mom she mentioned she was thinking of ordering from Temu but was told to do stuff like get the app, pay with apple pay, never use the website. Would it be better for me to just set up an Ali account for her so she can buy clothing and toys for the grandkids on the cheap?>>100264275>>100266597Thanks Anons. Had a fucking great day today so far, knock on wood.
>>100228286Opposite of what >>100231356 said, I fixed my mom's by turning on the battery saving (normal one) and blew really hard in the earphone jack of the phone, as there was a piece of hair connecting both sides screwing it up. Try that.
>>100268489i can't speak from in-depth experience, but the overall sentiment from anons is that "it depends." some items can be found cheaper on either platform, it's just up to your shopping skills and autism to deal with searching through results, etc. same with capitalizing on deals, it's a bit of a seasonal thing and jumping on promotions for new account deals. certain times of the year, either platform may offer more enticing deals. i've simply stuck with aliexpress, as i feel it is the larger platform overall with more options. both have their own cheapshit of lower quality, but it seems from my perspective temu is especially riddled with such "noob traps," and it's even a meme in and of itself the level of shitty products sold, whereas aliexpress can offer you "quality" goods if you choose to find / buy them.
>>100234846The only ones I remember being recommended cheap and good quality was some diagonal strap Xiaomi one (small) and a camo pack that some /trv/ anon posted about last year that they were taking it around everywhere for hiking and worked out really nicely with various straps and held well. I think they are linked in the OP's guide links.
