I was tempted years ago to try out projectors, but the space needed for proper setup is beyond what I have. Spending so much on something I can't use efficiently is pointless.

@Valkrys Yeah, if you've git the space and the light control, it's dope af. But not everyone has that, unfortunately.

Yeah, but a TV you can only "use" at night would kind of suck, no? Defeats half the money you spent on it.

Yeah. Not shitting on them completely or anything. It has it's uses, definitely.

I just live in a small shitty Apt with no free wall space. I have a decent amount of crap, so all the space is used up, pretty much.

Useless in my living scenario, in other words.

Though maybe a mini projector could be used...

Plus, depending on make and model, latency could be an annoyance for "purists" out there.

But I've stopped being autistic about crap like that ages ago.

@kontroll Yeah, probably pretty good for small sized screens.

I've heard those are getting better.

Don't expect massive sized screens with crystal​ clear image with a nano though, obviously.

It's at least not total shit like they first started out as, though.

I saw a recent techmoan video where he was showing off his. Basically amounted decent enough picture, but not bright enough for "day" viewing. Can't cheat physics, after all.

It's okay. We won't tell anyone. 👌

Damn, I'd love a replacement Chinkpad battery, but the shipping costs are cancer. 😭

@Monte For your dildo?

Of course. What was I thinking?

Has anyone done a "lifespan test" (or whatever the term is) on Kingdian drives? I've got 5-6 year old ssd I'd consider replacing/upgrading from and speed tests for the Kingdian are overall faster than my current one.

I can barely even read it, lol.

Whelp. Had a non-chink micro SD die on me after barely a year. Let that be a lesson, kids.

All SD cards equally suck.

Well, I guess "not-blatently chink" would be more accurate.

You got me there, though. Tech technicality.

How cheap?

Monoprices are $7

ish

Although if you hate cable noise and tangling then Monoprices will annoy you. Sound is the only reason anyone buys them.

That's weird.

Any recommendations on a decent flashlight? I'm going to use it for edc and fit it on my bike when I need to. AA batteries would be most convenient since I have a shit ton of rechargable ones.

apparently he's never opened modern electronics before lel

wait...he's taking each key out bynhand without a tool? omegalul
