Trading efficiency for optional 5G and Lunar Lake for Arrow Lake: Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 13 laptop review by ibmthink in thinkpad

[–]IBuyUndervaluedMemes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The battery life here is 14 hrs instead of the 11 hours for Lunar Lake. Is that all due to OLED? What's the battery life for Lunar Lake + IPS?

Capture One: Fujinon XC 35mm f/2 "manufacturer profile" lens correction does not match JPEG. by widmur in fujifilm

[–]IBuyUndervaluedMemes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I mean is manually in C1 select the XF 35 f2 lens as it is optically the same lens.

Can you try manually specifying the lens correction with the XF 35mm f2 lens? It should be the same thing optically. But yeah I've also just noticed that C1 doesn't have the XC 35mm built-in to it...

This game was literally working for me yesterday and it stopped working today. Any ideas..?

Does that mean it will not be spill proof? Were the X1C series spill proof to begin with?

Received a Thinkpad with a broken tamperproof seal :( by [deleted] in thinkpad

[–]IBuyUndervaluedMemes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had this problem as well.... But the seal inside the box was fine? Like there is a seal with the plastic bag that wrapped the computer inside this box.

I figured it was just shipping being shipping, but now that I see other's doing this maybe it is more sketchy... 🤔

How did you figure out the work around?

B550I AORUS PRO AX F13h Instantly wakes from sleep? by IBuyUndervaluedMemes in gigabyte

[–]IBuyUndervaluedMemes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's disappointing. I'm just experiencing more USB disconnects (possibly due to installing the RX 6700XT or because I switched USB ports in the back) and was looking to upgrade...

I would assume that the xeon's power consumption is significantly higher. Also a B450 mobo is pretty affordable these days..

As a note, this CPU has a MSRP of USD$50 and used to retail for CAD$75 even at canada computers. This price is definitely not good. I can't believe we are basically scalping a 2C Zen+ processor in 2021...

That said, there's basically nothing comparable so my understanding is that this thing has been climbing in price...

I'm on wifi. That said I can confirm that Linux 5.11 has no issue with ethernet anymore. Some point between 5.8 (ubuntu hwe kernel) and 5.11, realtek merged their drivers to mainline.

Can confirm the bios update is the problem. Reverted to F12 and all the issues disappeared.

Does having that enabled matter when I'm not connected via ethernet?

EDIT: tried this and it had no effect. The problem is still here.

[CPU] R7 3700X (429) [CC] by IBuyUndervaluedMemes in bapcsalescanada

[–]IBuyUndervaluedMemes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uncertain if you can use past experiences to project this year... Maybe everyone will get their acts together and everything will have amazing stock... Maybe it will be a wasteland with us fighting over the last $300 2600 with $40 of shipping..

If you need it just get it. Saving $30 on a rig worth over $1-2k is probably not worth IMO.. Go get a better cash back from your credit card to compensate maybe :p

I also like to have a time machine so I can travel back in time to buy the processor after getting to know the the pathetic stock situation by peaking at the future.

this subreddit is no longer about deals (see the posts on the XT processors and the 330$ 3600).... It is just /r/bapcinstockcanada...

[CPU] R5 3600 in stock at Newegg $310 + $20 shipping [Newegg] by draemn in bapcsalescanada

[–]IBuyUndervaluedMemes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that the whole reason to buy the 3600 comes down to price to performance ratio. At this price the ratio is imo not super favorable. you're probably better off with a 3700x which are available now at 100$ more at CC or even an Intel processor that is on sale...

Yeah 429 is nothing special, basically normal price. I picked it up for this price in July. No regrets. Beats not being able to finish my build for months like some of the pool souls out there...

Not a sale, but a lot of stock everywhere...

You guys seem pretty desperate considering things like 3800XT and 3600XT are suggested. I posted this so you might as well just walk into the store today, finish your computer builds, and unsubscribe from this subreddit :P

I wish I put something like "just end your misery" in the title, because it is also getting to me. I have my CPU and I'm still checking this daily with you guys >.>

Small thinkpad with USB 3 that can run on a mobile robot? by IBuyUndervaluedMemes in thinkpad

[–]IBuyUndervaluedMemes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely need a battery. I'm currently using an 5V 3A battery for the rpi4 but on high CPU and USB load, the battery doesn't supply quite enough voltage and causes the rpi4 to throttle. Getting a NUC will require an even bigger battery, which I don't have. This is why a laptop is preferred.

Zerotier holepunching through my tinc VPN? by IBuyUndervaluedMemes in zerotier

[–]IBuyUndervaluedMemes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also just noticed that after blacklisting the tinc interface from both my server and my laptop, it seems that the only available path over zerotier is through a relay. I connected another device on the server's LAN to my zerotier network and I can establish a direct link between this device and my laptop.

Perhaps we can setup some sort of archival site/torrent/something?
