I'm not American but I own a roku

You can find those in a lot of third party marketplaces

It's just a set top box, it'll give you what you want, if apps are region locked for your region, you're gonna get the same region lock

It doesn't use any kind of proxy or VPN

mfw Nvidia shields at 160$ are considered a best ever deal where I live

I don't think he thinks people are gonna take him seriously

Just like a lot of school shooters and shit, he just wants attention

The rest is just a nice wrapping around it

What's the problem with that?

It's not a hard limiter anyway

Nah, actually it only limits the cruising speed, you can still push on the accel to override it

Though automobile associations worry about some drivers feeling like "well as long as I'm at the limit I'm safe right?"

I'm more concerned about EU imposing black boxes in cars

(still not voted but EU is thinking about it)

Anyone got a recommendation on a good and durable cleaver? I need it to ~~hack my ex~~ make some delicious meat based weeb fewd

There's a shit ton of them on Ali but no idea which ones are good

@Omoidasu @Windatica nah, nothing kitchen related in <#491172628917256192>, just through all the reviews

> paying for ink

Just buy a cheap instant ink compatible HP printer

Register the printer, boom, free ink

This requires to have at least 40 in sneak depending on the detection stats of your coworkers

(and being employed)

*Also* have a company with normal printers

Mine is a no go they only have big ass enterprise grade printers

Buying one would cost me an arm

But then I could also *steal* one

Same for me, except for highly sensitive docs

A dildo

Something to insert in your urethra

Imagine Western countries copying China's surveillance system dystopia https://www.theepochtimes.com/chinas-big-brother-social-control-goes-to-australia_2898104.html

Yeah totally, fortunately it doesn't exist, right?

Unlike those third world countries that can totally afford such system, fuck those dictatorships

NT ?

Could be anything tbh

BBS are still a thing in Asia

Reminds me of an old video

@Julian I was answering Billy on the "drinking glass shards" so I really hope you're not thinking of what I'm thinking of otherwise you should probably seek medical assistance instead of typing here

My dad used to have a Lenovo phone back when they tried to enter the market by using intel atom CPU, was utter garbage

But that was 4.5 years ago

I beg to differ quite an bit

If it's twice as slow you might just want to scrap some task (like gayming or heavy photoshopping)

And some other tasks will 'feel as fast' because the difference is minimal (text editing, spreadsheet etc)

I'm quite doubting the performance benchmark of qualcomm, mind you, but even at half the performance of the i5 it might be a good option if the battery performance is twice its competitor

It's just not gonna be a high end laptop

Depends a lot on what you want to do but since I expect the answer to be anywhere near gayming it's gonna require components (mainly a graphic card) that's gonna be shit and super expensive

+ whatever underlying (air flow/temperature management, battery life is gonna be hot garbage, weight, etc etc)

No ?

I mean

What are you trying to achieve?

If it's just compiling some code, then the answer is a definitive no right now

Even for gayming you got a shit ton of software that just works™

Except if you live in a third world country with a dial-up type connection

What are you trying to achieve

Really

Just describe your use case precisely

Otherwise it's just gonna be running around on both sides

Even for things that requires mandatory GUI you got possibilities to do stuff as of today that are completely acceptable

Sure it **might** not be 180+ FPS silky smooth 4k

But as far as I know, almost no productivity / business apps requires that

Might require a bit of extra work, yeah, but that's still reasonably doable I guess

I assume you're talking about profesionnal CNC right? Not hobbyist?

I'm gonna assume you meant to say "or" and not "of"

Hobbyist and pro are very, *very* different contexts for CNC

As a hobbyist you could go with a single desktop because you only have one/a bunch of machine to control, not a huge fucking factory

And maybe a laptop to do adjustment if, let's say, your setup is far from your computer

If it's pro, then it's a whole different story

In that case, yeah, using a high end laptop is gonna be acceptable *but* usually those are expensive as fuck

Yeah, that's why I said a main desktop and a remote cheap laptop for additionnal stuff

Sure it might not be the greatest experience ever

But compared to a laptop that's gonna cost you more than twice that setup

Well...

I disagree on that point

Business laptop with a discreet and pro GPU is gonna rip your ass IF you compare it fairly with a comparable desktop setup

Even used

Look, right now I got a P50, let's not compare the full retail price that nobody would be willing to pay, but it's still gonna be around 1k+€

It got a Quadro M1000M

Try gayming on that

Okay, let's assume we're gonna go with your setup

K5130M

It's gonna be around the same performance as a GTX 580M

https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-FirePro-W5130M.151621.0.html

On desktop

That's the raw power equivalenbt of a GT 1030

(I'm not even comparing technologies)

A GT1030 is around what... 100 USD at most ?

Yeah well

I'm not saying it's a bad thing in your very specific case

But most people don't do pro 3D

I also have a pro GPU because I'm using 3DExperience

But it's still shit if I want to do non pro 3D things

And *most* people that buy a laptop with a discreet GPU are gonna do that for gayming

And I think we are mainly targetting those

*Still* you could probably have a decent desktop setup for cheaper even with a Quadro/Firepro

Honestly I don't think so (for average joe not using pro apps)

(and gayming, not business only)

Well if we go by that standard I'd say average joe isn't gonna buy a laptop but a tablet

*But*

It doesn't mean average joe is right in their buying decision
