$495 now 😭

ok, this is the last time 🫠
(I just feel like the prices are going to be even worse in the future...)

and 4TB WD BLACK SN850X is $1550 🫠

local ssd prices are crazy, especially for the Crucial which is probably just an old stock and slightly newer old stock 😆
no heatsink 2TB model is priced way higher than the same model but with a heatsink, and almost as high as a 4TB model 🙃
(for $US prices - divide by 43.5)

this reminded me that I have a NIB Model M without the cable...

especially when compressed

eh, very few games are more than 25 gigs

or deleting non English games, especially russian localized games 👿

the warm feeling of not downloading 700GB of FIFA games 🤗

lol, no, I tried to remove this shit also

RAID... RAID never sleeps 😆
off to the next console - Xbox 360 :)

yep

🤗 with almost 9TB of this are PS3 games, although I tried to weed out the different countries duplicates and sports and singing games I don't care about

GX2 also works 🫠
and I got another 7950GT with artifacts and Zalman VF700 for cheap, mostly for the cooler :)

I tested my 7950GT that I 'fixed' in November and it still works

🙄

AI companies contracted most of the DRAM manufacturing capacity, there is simply not enough left for the consumers.
Crucial, for example, exited consumer RAM/SSD market recently...
techbros are innocent, this time 😆

😆

yeah, maybe x3d cpus aren't very dependable on the bandwidth though? still, I would feel bad buying one stick 🫠

want another 16GB stick? that would be + $225 🫴

Definitely Only for Dogs: Ring's Superbowl Commercial (Parody) YouTube video by Wyze

I have my annoyances about the Wyze ecosystem (like dropping support for open RTSP firmware), but this shot at Amazon's Ring ad is perfect.

it would be a waste of a perfectly good AGP port imho 😆
I would go with GF3 Ti200, which is an overkill but would run some more 'modern' games nicely even with an underpowered CPU

but for now, you will eat crickets and be happy 😆

ok, so we heard you and agree that we don't need 8+ billion people to feed, Bill will work on this next 🤝

My 'technique' was to heat the die to about 100 - 110C (holding an infrared thermometer in one hand and hot air thingy in the other) and slightly tap the die with hot air nozzle couple of times 🤷‍♂️

😂

I didn't bother to take before and after pictures, because I honestly didn't believe it would work, but, if after all the fixes it still doesn't work, try gently heating the core...

Let it die, for the future generations sake 🙄

Who's gonna stop us? The internet police? 😂
