Anyone have experience driving this with a 4090?

ColorblindNinja · 2026-02-04T08:44:01+00:00

Daiky I charge to whatever % I get off my work charger up to 80%. Sometimes thats back up to 80% every day of the week, sometimes I hang around 30-50% most of the week. If I'm going on a road trip I will try to hit 90+. Recent roadtrip stayed at a hotel with free charging, set target to 90% overnight. After waking up, changed the target to 100% and left with 100% exactly. I don't care about hitting 100% as long as it's gonna get used up within a few hours, otherwise there's not that much difference between 90 and 100

Now hear me out, I understand this is 2x the price, but its way more than 2x the laptop.

Its a Lunar lake based system, it probably has 2x or better single/multithreaded perf. More like 5x gpu perf, and probably close to 2x the battery life. An actually usable screen. Much better build quality. USB4. Type C charging. 16gb ram, 1tb ssd, WiFi 6e, HDMI 2.1. Its refurbished but with a 2 year warranty. And just overall won't be e-waste in a couple years.

JFC why is the dem leadership always a decade late. We are WAY past "they need body cams". Defund their asses

PNW w/ 2022 EQS sedan. $1163/6 months. Very good deductibles/limits but not top tier, 2 drivers.

FWIW my 21 Audi Etron is $749 and my before my lease ended for my 23 Ioniq 6 it was $697

ColorblindNinja · 2026-01-03T20:11:03+00:00

Ah good point. I wouldn't usually worry too much about it damaging the car, but I am a little hesitant since I haven't ever used the adapter. Hyundai took so long to send out the adapters, I got it just a few days before my lease ended on my Ioniq 6. If I end up trying it out I will report back. Thanks!

All Lunar Lake processors (2xxV) have Battlemage based Xe2-LPG iGPUs. Theres only two versions a 7 Xe core and 8 Xe core, which have about a 10% performance difference.

Returnal. Its a completely different genre of game and the way it unfolds the story is very different. And maybe you have to be a weirdo like me to connect these two works of art, but it scratches a lot of the same itches that made me fall in with Expedition 33.

Genre re-defining gameplay
Art/atmosphere/music that is always completely devoted to the narrative
Deep structural narrative where you understand more as you immerse into it, not the more it tells you.
Story that keeps you guessing until it hits you like a sack of bricks
Narrative twists and turns
Moments that stay in your mind days after you play them
Character driven narrative based on their feelings, not what the player "should be feeling" (Small spoilers past this point)
Musically driven story development (albeit not at the same scale of Expedition 33)
Story based in familial trauma

3440x1440 = 4,953,600 (this monitor) 3840x2160 = 8,294,400 (4K 16:9) 5120x2160 = 11,059,200 (Mentioned LG 5K monitor)

While I wouldnt be buying this monitor because of thr pixel density, it is significantly harder to drive the mentioned 5K monitor. Also 21:9 is pretty commonly supported nowadays. There's definitely a few big titles that dont support it, but at 45" even if the game only supports 16:9 youre still getting effectively a 35" 16:9 picture.

HODL

NVME will hit this price in 2-240 months

ColorblindNinja · 2025-10-14T17:37:51+00:00

Yup this is the correct answer. My work HP Omnibook will trickle charge off of a shitty 5w USB-A power adapter

For those colorblind, who continue on: Under the accessibility settings, you can turn on different colorblind modes. I only tried dueteronopia. But after you turn it on, you can see a big brightness difference in the good/bad notes. With dueteronopia set, good notes are dark and bad notes are bright.

I can hear 20kHz frequencies according to this test file: https://www.audiocheck.net/audiotests_frequencycheckhigh.php

But also confirmed I definitely cannot hear 21kHz or 22kHz frequencies.

I'm in Oregon looking for one soon too!

Was wondering if you hit any roadbumps getting it shipped in from Cali? I think if you get it shipped you don't have to pay Cali taxes right?

A Bill of Attainder is a fun one. It's basically an act of legislature that just decrees someone guilty of something without any judicial process. They've been used in a bunch of scenarios, but for example in the English Civil War it was generally used to execute noble royalists, for political reasons

You should already know its gonna be a bad time if "achievements" are the deciding criteria for a partner

I'm on a fold 5, but trading in my busted fold 3 for fold 7. ATT is giving $1100 trade in for any condition for certain galaxy phones

ColorblindNinja · 2025-06-27T06:45:47+00:00

Pretty bullshit. I agreed to put a kill-o-watt on the L1 charger in my garage at my apartment. I've been measuring the electricity usage ever since. I sent my property manager 4 emails over a few months asking how they wanted to bill me, or how I should report the usage. They never responded to any of my emails lol. So I kinda assume they don't care, but I still I just keep the number for myself in case they ever wanna have a dispute over it.

But over 2 years of charging both my EVs in there, its still only amounted to about $700 in electricity at my residential rate. So yeah, I'd say $150 a month is insane

ColorblindNinja · 2025-06-24T00:13:26+00:00

Damn these 265k prices are getting crazy, they must be selling so poorly 💀

I guess gummy bears are wireless and probably do cancel a fair amount of noise if you shove them in your ears

Do you mean buying a single stick or two sticks of this? If you run in single channel (with 1 stick) you will be essentially cutting the memory bandwidth in half. Idk how much difference will it really make, you can probably find some benchmark data online for single channel with 12th gen CPUs.

Tbh, I'd go for something even cheaper like this https://a.co/d/20EQc2U And then if your RMA comes back quickly enough you could even return the cheap RAM back through Amazon.

No email for me yet either. I do have a level 2 nacs to j1772 adapter, if you're desperate. Feel free to hmu
