it's good that games are insane spec cause it means they're targeting for years ahead
if a game just looks passably good when it comes out then it's gonna look like shiet quick
That thinkpad handled that giant magnet pretty well tbh
Makes me a lot less paranoid around magnets
Welcome <@240956801393098753>!
magents are specially nasty to HDD because of them fucking with the METAL platters and the 0's and 1's engraved in them.
yeah the hdd is obvious but interesting to see that the field did nothing to any of the dram banks
the rest of the tech doesn't involve magneting around so they're safe against that beast
relatively so at least
the culture of no magnets around stuff is super pervasive
that was years ago imo
anyways, i should look for USB cables, will any of them do?
loaded question heh
huh?
i think you're mostly safe except for usb-c
chinks still have problems figuring that beast out
it's just ordinary usb im looking for.
any of them are fine; if they fail it's usually at the solder junction between the port and the cable
not gonna fry your stuff
i like the wind up ones but they'll break if you unwind them uncorrectly
i take the cheapo cables that fail and resolder them, then reinforce the junction with a spring and heatshrink
have a couple that are reinforced and you should never need anymore in your EDC bag
chink braided cables are usually pretty good
i have some nice 1.5m audio cables that ive had for a while
i bought one at dollar tree yesterday lol
i have this
prety good
wish they sold ones that terminated in 3.5 male on one end, and 6.3 male on the other end
it does the usb stuff well, like being made out of metal and being able to transfer electrons
thats always a good bonus feature
those are fancy cables, but is there a male normal/female normal version?
too bad they cost so much
that's basically the ("fair") retail price
its cheaper to build my own
seems gud tho
or just use an aux and an adapter
is super cheap
naw
