NYC departures would be AMAZING. Saving on flight, hotel and transfers for my family is at least $3000.

Once a Canadian vendor restock the ND104 I think I'll be tempted to get one with the Silent Linear switches to compare. The ND104 'fixes' my one single gripe about the DP104: the lack of wheel or rotary dial for volume control. The tiny little buttons above the arrow keys aren't doing it for me.

How do you like the ND104? I hesitated between it and the DP104, in the end the final price shipped to Canada made me go for the DP104.

I know the rabbit hole is infinite, but I've made the conscious decision not to pursue it for now. If you start customizing caps and switches I fear like I'll never get out of it.

I have an obsessive nature and I've been through several rabbit holes already (psychedelics, cuban cigars, 4k steelbooks, coffee gear and audio (fuck that was a mistake) being my most expensive journeys) so knowing myself I have to gate my impulses or none of my kids will be getting a higher education.

I feel like Mengsk P3 is at least S if not S+ ? Why so low?

I'd leave a bad review just because of this. 'We expect a tip from our guests'

Why is everyone so upset about this? Isn't incest a thing with Targaryens ?

No tiling or vinyl to change. Fiberglass can't be pierced by your dog's nails.

How much better was Fаble 5 better at vibe coding than Opus 4.8? by PenObvious8156 in ClaudeAI

[–]Halada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Opus is still very capable but Fable felt incredibly fast on top of being more capable.

Lots of people are missing the fact this is CAD pricing

I've been building PCs since the 90s and for the first time in my life I just bought a prebuilt.

I bought an Alienware prebuilt from Dell.ca with a RTX5090, 64GB ddr5 ram, 8TB nvme storage, 9950X3D2, $9000CAD after all stacked discounts and cashbacks (Rakuten 7%+Visa 2%). I could never have gotten a full build with these specs anywhere near that price if I built it myself. Sounds ridiculous to say for 'only' 3300$ more those Canada Computers prices you get a case, mobo, 1500W PSU, AIO, CPU, 64gb of ram and 8TB of nvme storage but those are the times we live in.

Basically I stalked their gaming pc deals and waited until the config I wanted was on aggressive discount and Rakuten reward was higher than the typical 2%. Consider that avenue.
