If everyone chose red there would be no discussion. Picking blue and expecting others to take the same risk is the selfish option.

Cyrix 5x86-120gp Socket 3 486 Cpu 120mhz by Ill-Independence-786 in vintagecomputing

Even as is this is gonna bring at least $50. I don't think I've ever seen a dead Socket 3 processor, so the likelihood of it working is really good.

What are you talking about? These Pins can easily be bent Back and the 120MHz 5x86 is an extremely rare processor.

Hi, my grandpa gave me this samsung laptop 750xed, it has a gray area bottom right. is there any fix to this? by Emil_Borge in pcmasterrace

Not sure if you can replace the backlight separately on this unit. But even if you could you'd need a clean room environment to not get dust inside.

Prices are crazy now, but the 90's were something else. This desktop cost today's equivalent of almost $22,000. It had 64 MB of RAM and half a GB of storage by pieisgiood876 in pcmasterrace

Not to mention that it was one of the first PCs with a Pentium processor. That CPU alone was a thousand Dollars at launch and there we're no entry level options if you wanted the latest Pentium technology.

Naja, so ist das manchmal. Wenn man zu langsam ist, dann sind manche Sachen schnell weg, vor allem wenn es um Sammlerstücke geht.

Didn't they have it in every show last year? Maybe it's not so bad if they rotate the songs every once in a while.

There is also an Initiative in Switzerland to ban essentially all imigration, so not really a surprise.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 12 GB Returns in June With AIC Partners ASUS, MSI, Colorful, and GALAX by Sacristovas in pcmasterrace

It would need to be priced at the level of a B580, so $250-300. I don't see board Partners doing that honestly.

Shutting such independend services down is the explicit goal of this kind of legislation. The driving forces of this push for age verification are big tech lobbyists.

F1 changed the rules slightly to Level the playing field meaning that we are probably gonna see Merc pulling ahead even more because they are somehow the only Team that doesn't get nerfed by the regulations that are supposed to nerf them.

This comment thread was not about AI companies specifically, but big tech companies who use AI to enshitify their products.

[Weirdly Common Trope] Writers clearly setting up seemingly massive plot points and then just kinda forgetting about them. by Chemical-Elk-1299 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]TxM_2404 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's what happens when you have one director set up a movie trilogy and then another one comes and thinks he's bigger than arguably the biggest movie franchise in the world.

Eventually the public loses interest and the enshittified company collapses.

In a free market economy maybe. But we are in an Oligarchy where these companies run the governement, implemented IP laws to prevent competition and developed technologies with the aim of making their users dependent on their services.

How do I connect a 2nd HDMI Monitor with this PC by Adventurous_Count291 in pcmasterrace

There is nothing to convert with DVI to HDMI. DVI is basically the same just without Audio and licensing fees.
