Nice but it needs to go full retro and be designed for horizontal placement (and accommodate ATX MBs) so GPUs and CPU coolers don't exert such ludicrous leverage force on connector and sockets. It could be placed at the back of the working desk with the monitor placed on top so you can have good access to rear panel connections and shorter cabling. Bonus points if it's beige and the plastic turns yellowish after a couple of years exposure to sunshine. Double bonus points if it has a mysterious "turbo" button.
How many hundreds of "senior dev vs junior dev" slop comics with the exact same slop comic style have you scrolled past today?View attachment 8286972
I came across an embedded Josh xeet ranting about jeets and LinkedIn on this site I check to see how fucked the IT sector is. Based? Or am I being tricked into giving this site free advertisement?
I miss when companies would obtain a phone number for marketing and said number would give a prerecorded message.
I found a timer at a thrift store that's an "hourglass" (it really only runs for 15 minutes). But no lithium ion batteries, no Bluetooth, no "apps", none of that current BS.
That is why when I see an appliance or an LED bulb that needs an "app" to run, I'm immediately like "screw that crap" or "pass" on it.
Have you tried looking for projectors? There are still some of the pro models that don't have the built-in smart TV shit. Like this one (at least from what I've read so far): https://www.bestbuy.com/product/eps...ector-black/J7JTY3RPW2#tabbed-customerreviews
Coming from a time before "smart" TVs, what is the point of making the TV a computer? Why not just use streaming sites on a computer?
Are we that young that we cannot remember what a regular hourglass is that you had to explain it?
It's a way of subsidising the televisions by having bloatware garbage on it that companies pay for so you'll use it out of sheer boredom. Regular TV monitors will cost you upwards of a grand while bloated ones will only cost you around three fifty for the same specs.
"Perchance."
I have a plug into an outlet mechanical timer. Full of springs, contacts and levers. It's even got Neon bulbs in it
So it's analog but electric powered?
This might shake you to your core but I still own purely mechanical kitchenware. I still cook with gas and my microwave has a dial and has the loudest fucking bell imaginable. I don’t own a blender and do everything by hand. My fridge and freezer, (un)fortunately, don’t work on the essence of continually filling it with ice from the store, if only!
Don't connect it to the Internet in the first place... but I admit, I have a Firestick plugged into mine...
Shit is insidious. Never used sirius never searched about it ever but a few months after buying my used vehicle I accidently hit the dedicated siriusxm button and a few days later I got a advert in the mail for it.
I do hate how modern microwaves make the default for heating 1 minute intervals and you select a button to put in a precise time, when it should be the other way around
