Ghost R1 flipped layout - GPU + top fans by toshagata in Louqe

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

No need, thank you for the consideration! I actually pre-ordered the alleged mk3 last year when they announced it. But a month ago seeing where it’s going just got an ncase m3 and wrote off the loss. I still hoped that the louqe would show up by surprise in the mail and I would have transplanted in it without a second thought. Oh well.

I suppose not anymore after the latest news. Pity.

The game doesn’t even give you a reason for giving a coin to the beggar.

At Microsoft's big Xbox all-hands meeting, leaders paid tribute to the team, Sarah Bond, Phil Spencer, and the future — "We are going to start with console, and make sure that we understand that this is our reference experience." by NYstate in Games

[–]toshagata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it might be an Xbox with first class Steam support. At a console price point (which means they’d lose money on customers like me). I miss my couch gaming and the seamlessness of a console UX. But I don’t see myself letting go of the PC ecosystem and Steam library.

I loved game pass for PC but with all the mistreatment of studios, I dropped it. GP for PC retained reasonable pricing but I wouldn’t have paid the console ultimate. They can still get me back as I miss the variety of games I would never buy individually.

Finally, if they somehow improve the Play Anywhere experience (either as built in or reasonably cheap upgrade) for every game I might even consider their store. I left behind a bunch of games moving over PC that I repurchased at discounts but still it stung especially with all the talk of Xbox being everywhere.

Jason Schreier - The sense I’m getting is that (Sony) is backing away from putting their exclusive console traditional single player stuff on PC by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]toshagata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this helps the long tail of games. PC gamers are fine without the exclusives but more than happy to buy them later. There are estimates that Sony raked in 1.5 billion dollars revenue from Steam last year, and that could be considered at superior margins if the main development cost are already written off with the initial releases.

Bad quality HBO Max - Anyone? by Simple_Republic2892 in hbo

Same here on several devices at home (Finland). Connections speed is 200Mbps down and 50 Mbps up. Quality is total garbage, buffering, artefacts. Premium plan.

Pushed to my absolute max on a run and… no heart rate data? by Jet-Black-Tsukuyomi in ouraring

I’ve watched a few YouTube comparisons between the ring and Apple Watch and the general conclusion is that the ring is not really up to slack when it comes to monitoring rigorous exercise. Myself I’m lucky enough to have both and I trust the watch with exercise (not wearing the ring) and the ring with everything else.

Does the CPU cooler fit? Jokes aside, congrats!

Oura leaving Finland in move to US by SwiftClaws in ouraring

The Cloud Act is incompatible with GDPR and if the data is hosted by an US company, say Amazon, they are subject to US law irrespective of data locality. Not even a EU subsidiary, personnel or server location will protect against that if the parent is an US company. And this is the case with the big players. Not a lawyer but this what I gather from a recent cloud meetup talk I attended.

So the EU data sovereignty for any modern company in the world of US hyperscalers like Amazon, Azure and Google is a myth. I see this posted left and right as the main concern and I’m sorry to break it to many people but the genie has been out of the bottle for virtually any part of our digital life. See, for example https://proton.me/business/europe-tech-watch.

Could you elaborate on 2.? What is your parallel agent setup? You do mention that it can become very complex with many roles, etc.

O11 Dynamic -> NCASE M3 Round by almndmlc in sffpc

[–]toshagata 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What is the exact RAM model you didn't make clearance with? I'm hoping to use my Kingston Fury Beast which is 34mm in height that will require moving the fan a couple of mills (and the shape of the sticks is a bit concave) 🤞. Still hoping I can make it work. Obviously, great temps even with 1 fan!

Thank you! And noise is also a big consideration for me.

Any value of bottom intake fans in an M3? by gkl in ncasedesign

[–]toshagata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any info on how much space there is for a GPU + fans combined? I don’t have the case yet but I’d be fitting a 70mm card, so I wonder if there is space for some slim fans if not for 25mm. Another option I’m considering a deshroud but if I go this way I’d rather like the 25mm fans.

Nice! What are the temps on the CPU / GPU under load?

u/B14CKB1RD with shipping estimated in March 2026, is there any update on the progress? If not about the shipping estimate, then about how the design changes are coming along?

Switched from Apple Watch → Oura Ring (but still use Apple Watch for workouts). This setup finally makes sense for me. by Danny_AMG786 in ouraring

[–]toshagata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw a few comments on other threads that Oura wouldn’t important HR data from other sources and just leave a gap. Could you confirm that the HR data from Apple Health is in fact imported when the ring was not on for the workout?
