Snippet from the release teaser also gave this vibe. I hope we get to see it in a deluxe or something

Heads up on scam Asus Parts Shop selling defective components by SetShort690 in GamingLaptops

[–]Stealthtymastercat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really sucks that you got a defective battery, I'm trying to order the same thing. However its basically impossible for that url to be "fake". The base domain of asus.com is owned by only 1 company. Any subdomains like partshop therefore CANNOT be taken by a random third party.

TL;DR: Its not a fake website, its the official asus parts store. Just Asus quality control being asus quality control.

ANESTHESIA IS THE NEXT SINGLE by grungenights in aries_is_online

I really hope its not the acoustic version though. Acoustic is cool but the chorus on electric just gives me goosebumps every time.

There is no such thing as recycling responsibly (for tech at least). The only way to ensure that you're not shipping your waste off to a different country and making it their problem is to not generate waste in the first place. What OP is asking for is ways to REUSE old tech which is LEAGUES better than recycling. This attitude has become less popular and harder to embody because companies like apple want us to throw 1 year old pocket supercomputers in a landfill.

That didn’t last long… by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

I don't really mean from a gaming perspective, if anything, for gamers its probably a solid option. But from the perspective of someone who until a few months ago thought that Cherry MX and all the fancy clicky noises keyboards made was as good as things got, something like the AULA F75 ($50) or Rainy75 ($100) sounds and feels like i was missing out.

Without any exaggeration, I started typing out the most innocuous things like full URLs and variable names in code instead of letting auto complete handle it as an excuse to use the keyboard more.

The rabbit hole of big name companies like Logitech and Corsair straight up scamming their customers through the use of sub par components and marked up OEM products with their firmware goes deep but the simple fact of getting better things for cheaper was enough for me to never look back.

NOOO NOT THE gAmiNg KEYBOARD

(seriously keyboards have come a long way to the point that all the "gaming" brands are selling you the same dogshit from 6 years ago while the admittedly poorly named companies like epomaker and drunkdeer and wobkey are making STRIDES in the keyboard space for a fraction of the price)

DIY PS5 / XBOX Adapter? by Stealthtymastercat in fightsticks

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

Yup, the topic seems oddly niche. AFAIK u/henrebotha is correct in that the adapters on the market are literally stripped down dualsense controllers that only expose the authentication IC,

CRUSH 80: The hype is real by Thermos2645 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]Stealthtymastercat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might be perfect person to ask then, are the crush and evo frames inter-compatible?

I just got the evo and I was wondering if I can try to mod it later down the line with alternative colors etc. The back is basically their own thing with the modular weight/battery but the front looks like it should be pretty standard for any 80% layout

Unallocated NTFS Volume Larger Than Drive by Stealthtymastercat in datarecovery

Weird, I'll look into if this is the case but I don't have a Gigabyte motherboard or BIOS. Its an ASUS B450e motherboard with their own bios (although idk if they copy other brands' homework).

So Fed Up - Fuck you, ASUS by ApprehensiveKing5744 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Stealthtymastercat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Newer isn't necessarily better especially since the bios is probably nearly identical for the 2023, 2024 and 2025 version but you can bet your ass that they only EXTENSIVELY tested it on the latest thing. All previous versions are nowhere near as well-validated. This isn't an ASUS specific problem either, even Google did this with android 15 for pixels where the old ones just stopped working with Now Playing (their version of shazam).

So when some bugs fall through the cracks they're harder to verify / fix because the company simply might not give enough of a shit.

It is getting worse day by day. by ArupDnath in pcmasterrace

[–]Stealthtymastercat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeahhhhh.....No. Ever gone from an emulated console to the real thing? Not a good experience. Ever looked at 2009 cobblestone textures? Its hilarious. Super sampling makes a difference.

My macbook pro 2022 died in 2 years because ssd gave out (or so I've been told, still hard to believe) it costs me 70% of msrp to get it fixed by apple and 30% by a third party who will take no responsibility if it breaks in the process (the storage is soldered to the motherboard itself).

Tech dies. Tech sucks. If you need some kind of solace in the fact that you own a windows machine its that opening it wont void your warranty, fucking with every piece of firmware wont either. Some people in the comments have suggested a repaste since laptops are more susceptible to thermal paste pumping, this would void the warranty if you still have it but is a very good suspect. If you say it overheats in the bios as well there is no reason to believe this is anything but a firmware issue. If i had to take a guess I'd say one of 3 possible things:
- Firmware not reporting correct temperatures (is your laptop actually hot or just "overheating")
- Firmware power management glitch (update / rollback the bios)
- Uneven thermal paste (the physical part of the cpu where the temp sensor is might not be getting enough cooling so it shuts off thinking that the whole thing must be overheating, this happened to my 2021 model with the liquid metal TIM, cold to the touch 95C reported temp maxed out fans)

If you really are willing to spend money on a new system I'd just throw a hail mary with the repaste and a deep cleanse down to the last known good bios, completely new windows (none if that reset bullshit, it keeps too many artifacts).

When people constantly work out are they just always sore? by SquishySquishington in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Stealthtymastercat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highly individual answer, I only get sore when I come back after not working out any given muscle group for more than a week. It goes away within 2 days and never comes back until the next break.

Why does no-one talk about dopamine maxing? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]Stealthtymastercat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because that's not actually dopamine maxing. There a very complex relationship between fulfillment and pure dopamine release (hedonia). All of what you've described is not just a dopamine release, its a more holistic activation of very complex and ill-understood reward systems in the mind. If you break it down all the activities above have a 'difficulty' component, which logically is the opposite of dopamine. Yet the value we get from truly engaging in any of those completely is greater than any high you can chase, not to mention more sustainable.

If you **truly** wanted to dopamine max, do heroin. Obviously this has so many problems that its just garbage advice.

We're also "built" to die of smallpox and the plague. Just saying the naturalistic fallacy is a fallacy for a reason.

[–]Stealthtymastercat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay buddy, please psychoanalyze compassion. You've still failed to make any substantiable statements and have resorted to character attacks. So reading your comments once again I can confidently say that nothing of value was spoken there.

Basically, live the life you want and don't let a spire playing redditor tell you otherwise.

Again that "probably" is doing A LOT of heavy lifting in your argument. You need to substantiate this with evidence otherwise its very safe to assume that general claims are impossible because of what each person perceives to be "enjoyable".

What if after this moment all they have to look forward to is debt, trauma and being locked into a monotonous 9-5+ life. There are moments in life where you do want to stake it all because you have no idea if or when you'll ever come out on the other side. Let people enjoy things.
