    Suggest a good drone at 2K and 5K price point

    why not gift an rc helicopter or something instead of a drone? dunno about others, but I would have loved a proper RC helicopter with proper balance and weights for stable flight and not not those cheapo RC toys which won't survive after 10 minutes

    Several Linux Kernel Driver Maintainers Removed Due To Their Association To Russia

    the issue is with others, specially python (since I follow them mostly) is, none of these are assholes, or try to be assholes to newcomers, I linked you the video so that you could see how these assholes were behaving with the Rust folks, all throughout the talk. Just listen to their banter.

    Several Linux Kernel Driver Maintainers Removed Due To Their Association To Russia

    go watch this and lmk what you think, I never specifically pointed out Tso btw and if there's anything that has proven its India that 'yahi chalta hai (this is what's been working)' is not a good reason to not change shit.

    Several Linux Kernel Driver Maintainers Removed Due To Their Association To Russia

    They didnt step down because things werent moving at a faster pace, though this indeed constituted part of the reason, the main issue was the outright condescension shown by other maintainers towards Rust devs, treating them as something lesser, not merging patches for months despite Rust...

    90K+ First time building PC for Gaming

    wait for the launch of new GPUs and buy a 40xx series GPU second hand for some major money savings, and even if you want to get a new GPU, you'll still save some dough as prices for older gens will fall.

    Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite (8 gen 4) announced with massive performance boost

    the new mid range these days is 40-50k ;) anyways you dont need such a powerful processor these days, its wasted on mobile phone, same with Apple's Bionic series, I'd rather have an ultra-efficient performer which can double my battery life than this.

    Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 9 285K is reportedly (slightly) slower than the i9 14900K in gaming

    yeah it's memory and cpu intensive, like civ and others, at the start these games are fine, but when you sink in hours and your buildings/npcs increase, that's when your cpu gets hammered likes crazy. if I want to make my cpu a toaster, then I just need to load up one of old saves As for anno...

    Need recommendations for a HDMI 2.1 cable and a USB to Ethernet adapter

    I have ordered 3 more Honeywell cables so far and they have been working fine, if you don't want to buy Honeywell, then ugreen one is also certified

    Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 9 285K is reportedly (slightly) slower than the i9 14900K in gaming

    did you reach the end game? I haven't player civ much and am mainly an Anno player, but in 1800 at the start. I easily clear 80s but by then time I am 400-500 hours in, I barely get 30s, no ram bottleneck from what I can tell. usages us around 25-26 gigs in anno. I fill up my 32 when I am...

    Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 9 285K is reportedly (slightly) slower than the i9 14900K in gaming

    FSR/CAS/any other amd tech is hardware agnostic and based on software which they mostly release for competitors too. ah yeah, makes sense, i was looking at it from a pef only lens yeah, that is a good point, you save on mobo costs on AMD which can be significant enough and you can then invest...

    The Enshittification of Swiggy

    same set of costs though, the drivers need money to put in gas in their car/bike, money for maintenance, and then enough money to sustain their homes. and this is India, spending potential is capped both because of mentality and actual means, even people like us who earn more than decent, would...

    Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 9 285K is reportedly (slightly) slower than the i9 14900K in gaming

    I havent used AMD CPUs so dont know much about it and was just going through the # of cores/threads on paper, does the 8c/16t not bottleneck in strat/RTS games?

    Waiting List Vs PQWL

    population ;), I have stopped using trains almost exclusively, and when I do need to book, I go to a broker for my tickets, they have guys even on station too who can bribe/do whatever to get your tickets, costs me 500rs extra, but the piece of mind is worth it whenever I do need to book once...

    Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 9 285K is reportedly (slightly) slower than the i9 14900K in gaming

    doesnt make sense for most gamers currently, but when more mainstream games start taking advantage of more cores/threads, then it will, like in the case of RDR2 when it was first released, the performance almost scaled linearly as the amount of cores/threads increased, with lower processors...

    The Enshittification of Swiggy

    This will only keep increasing unfortunately, look at DoorDash/GrubHub/Uber Eat's business model in the US and you can predict the future for these too, this business in of itself is not a sustainable one, either the companies keep operating in loss or they hike fees. I'm not defending them but...
