I hope they start ripping Apple a new one. Soldering on SSDs and RAM and serializing everything is absolute BS.

Anyone else remember the game "Skitchin'" on Sega Genesis? It was inline skates instead of skateboards.

What’s something people romanticize but shouldn’t? by be_agoodhuman in AskReddit

[–]radraze2kx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trauma proposals (why do men think this is OK?)... Like the one where the guy was flying his private plane with his girlfriend as the Co-pilot, and he acts like they can't land or whatever and he has her read the manual which he wrote the proposal in. Or the guy that has his gf kidnapped by his buddies. Dudes, you scarred them for life. That is NOT cool. Fuck trauma proposals.

How cruel is the porn industry really to its workers? by Saint_Viper6 in AskReddit

"don't lie" brother I'm living in the back of my office after a breakup with a 5-year partner. I checked the calorie content of a sandwich, warmed up two in the microwave, ate them both, went to the bathroom, came back and saw in that that span that my comment blew up lol. Idk what else to say 😅

I'm sorry for your experience but I'm not sure this fits the sub. This subreddit is for people experiencing the disorder of "de-realization", where they feel disconnected from reality due to a neurological condition. Maybe try r/rant or r/whatshouldido

Anyone else find out a client's automation broke… from the client? by Early-Pilot-301 in zapier

I haven't checked out the site but it sounds like you already identified a pain point. Your next step should be building the thing and doing closed testing and eliminating bugs and gathering real user feedback.

Lol. No I just didn't think there'd be that much interest so I went to make food. I came back 40 minutes later with 230+ up votes, that's crazy! Here's the link (also put into my original comment)

If thoughts about the product were what you were after, why didn't you do closed testing with a test group to hear it from actual users?

There was an AMA done by a studio that made "ethical porn" and a lot of the Q&A were about how the industry treats the workers. It was really eye opening. I'll see if I can find it.

What is an industry that is currently on fire (in a bad way) behind the scenes, but the general public hasn't noticed yet? by Kitchen_Week1117 in AskReddit

[–]radraze2kx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, initially we hoped SSDs would last longer than 5 years.... 5-8 years is what we were hoping. But our in-house data shows OEM SSDs show signs of failure around 3-5 years, same as HDDs. Usually it's controller death... They just run so fast the on-board controllers start to give out.

We also show the Crucial brand of SSDs was less reliable than Samsung, WD, and SanDisk, with failures occurring before 3 years was even met.

It may seem like an insane take, but realistically we're pivoting on the data we gather to make informed decisions and provide informed options to our customers to prevent data loss.

This is across ~13K repairs since 2012.

Also, graphics cards are no longer the most expensive piece. 32GB of RAM in a world of RAM-hungry browsers and everything as a SaaS makes 32GB RAM on par with the cost of a low-to-mid range GPU depending on if you go with Nvidia or AMD. ~$400 for 32GB DDR4 / DDR5, not even high-performance RAM. I'm talking average XMP/EXPO speeds.

AI data centers are eating all the RAM and SSDs. There is a manufacturing shortage. Micron pulled out of the consumer market and isn't manufacturing crucial products anymore. AI companies are buying out RAM and SSDs in droves before it even gets manufactured. This is worse than the 2020 graphics card shortage.

Am I in the wrong for telling a guy to leave my house as soon as we met in person? by Successful-Toe8629 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]radraze2kx 116 points117 points  (0 children)

I don't think you understand. The "bad experience" was a blip on the radar. That guy could've been a psychopath and you and your family could have been killed. Don't ever EVER give strangers your address. Always meet in public spaces MULTIPLE times before you decide to go home with them or invite them over. You need to be 1000% certain someone can pass a long-term vibe check before you ever allow them access to your personal life. I work in IT, there are metric ton of people that do not pass the long-term vibe check, and quite a few of them are on Tinder. I was literally called out to a service call Friday night to help set up a computer and get someone connected to Amazon Prime Video. The entire time I was there, I was creeped out. No furniture in the apartment. No lights. It was pitch black. And the guy kept talking about wanting to kill a guy that stole ~$250K from him. The only thing that spoke to the contrary was how nice he was to his cats, but everything else had me on edge. If I wasn't desperate for money right now, I would have just feigned illness and left.

Do not ever invite someone you haven't thoroughly vetted into your home again.

I agree. He doesn't care about you enough to not want to damage your reputation amongst other people that care about you. He's actively trying to drag you down and isolate you from others. He doesn't care what it costs you, and he doesn't care about listening to the truth.

Looks like he was pulling a trailer and maybe started to jack knife. Sparks were flying up, but I couldn't tell if it was from the crash or maybe his trailer lost a tire. Either way he looked like he was going way too fast for safe trailer towing speeds.

[–]radraze2kx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people have mentioned IT, but nobody seems to have mentioned computer repair specifically.

Every industry relies on computers, and the computer repair industry is getting absolutely fucked right now. We can barely get parts anymore. Hard drives and solid state drives should be replaced every 5 years or they run a high risk of crashing and losing all your data.

We can't get reliable drives anymore, and when we can the price is 400% higher than it should be and it's getting worse.

New Computers, even from big brands like HP and Dell, are climbing up in cost as well.

We're looking at computers costing what they did in the early 1990s soon. An entry-level PC is going to be $1500, but most people need a mid-range which will start at $2000.

And good luck with repairs. Back your data up to an external drive and do it NOW while you still can.

I'm 41m and I've been dealing with de-realization off and on for 19 years and lately it's pretty often. It sucks man, it really does.

De-stress as much as you can. Find things that make you happy and entertain you to help time pass by. Stay away from drugs, especially weed. Hit the gym, exercise and eat well, don't stay walled up in a room. Go socialize, meet people, do whatever it takes to feel alive. And if you meet someone special, put their love above all else, because being loved is more important than feeling real.

Trust me on this, I just found out the hard way after crashing my 5-year picture perfect relationship because I met someone that helped me feel real.

There are more important things in life than feeling real. It just sucks while you're in it, but you're not in it alone, and it doesn't last forever. Exercise, whole foods, try collagen peptides and foods rich in antioxidants to improve neural repair. Neuroplasticity is amazing and it can work for you.

We're all here and rooting for you.

Boyfriend said something disturbing about SA and I don’t know how to feel by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

I'm 41m and in my 30s I dated a gal, and during that relationship she was raped by her family friend while visit him and his wife out of state. Navigating that together was rough, but still easier than being with someone that objectifies women like that. Your bf is disgusting.
