    Anyone else watching Squid Game? Lots of weird theories going on around the Web.

    Me. Watched episode 5 a few days ago.

    So 2 more episodes? BTW seems like S3 is coming out this year

    oh maybe thats what i was thinking of ! Season 3 coming soon, not 2

    Yah. 3 comes out in 2025 based on what the actor said.

    If you havent yet, reminder to enter the racknerd winter gleam give away!

    I finally remembered today without a reminder

    Lol. That's a good sign.

    That i will be the owner of a new nvme ssd soon? :D I hope so!

    Me as well. Been saving money for an SSD for my PC/Media server.

    My home server is still booting from HDDs because I'm lazy. It's frustrating if I need to reboot, otherwise, it works well enough.

    Mine is an Android box :lol:
    Tried using 2.5 inch 5400rpm drives for storage but the box can thandle it I guess.

    Ah, mines just an old linux desktop with a bunch of random HDDs in it and a very messy docker setup.

    I might have to move to something like that very soon. The Android box isnt exactly cutting it. But that's all I have for now.

    I found a pc in a dumpster that is actually my server. People left personal info on it too but i wiped it all first because ethics

    I really don't understand most people in developed countries who just dispose off their electronics for trivial issues.

    I blame Microsoft and Apple for that - people always be needed the latest hardware to run those crappy OSes meanwhile Linux works well on hardware from decades ago.

    Yah, moreover its their stance against right to repair. At some point, Ig people have just become habituated to throwing out slightly blocked hardware cause they think it's unrepairabek

    The hw microsoft runs on is pretty repairable, people just dont know how :( Apple on the other hand..

    There's actually a Canadian repairman with a aYT channel that has been protesting for years against this practice.

    I think I have seen that one on youtube! Didnt he help pinoeer some right to repair things?

    Oh yes. I have heard theya rent supposed to be for anything major, but they are good for smaller projects.

    yeah i think energy usage is a big standout for them too

    Yup. Arm though is changing

    Raspberry pi is my only exporsure to developing on ARM

    Min eis my Android box. Never seen an RPi in real life.

    They have buckets of them at some stores in the US. If you can find a microcenter they are bountiful but hard to find a microcenter

    I love MicroCenter! That's where I get all my Pi's from.

    How much do they cost at MC?

    Usually $10 less than MSRP. So a RPI 5 8GB is $69.99

    Those are good prices, if I am not wrong. They cost much more here

    Yeah they have surprisingly good prices for a brick and mortar store. The best part is I can drive 15 minutes and get one locally. Like last Christmas (Dec 2023) when RPI 5 was back ordered until like March everywhere online, I was able to grab an RPI 5 a few days before Xmas.

    I try to buy anything I can from MicroCenter instead of online to hopefully help them stay in business.

    That brings me to this. Doesn't MC have any kinda online presence at all?
    I have the habit of checking US prices just for fun every time I get some tech here locally in India. Blows my mind every time seeing how cheap they are in the US.

    Yes you can order stuff online also to be shipped: https://www.microcenter.com

    Oh ok. Wish they would open a few stores in India as well.

    They need to open more locations. Replace all best buys with microcenters and the world will be a better place

    Hell yes! MicroCenter blows BestBuy out of the water.

    When it comes to parts, ig. But I guess bb also has some good offers on laptops from time to time. So does walmart. I might be wrong though

    Yeah BB does good deals on laptops, but actually so does MC. I actually bought 2 laptops from there in the past couple years bc they had really good prices and specs. I also bought all the parts there to build my desktop.

    Im hanging out here, just lurking mostly and sending thanks here and there. Watching out for a GA or flash sale! Im trying to keep my hype in check today as I dont want noob to miss out on page 700. Its a momentus mile stone he would love to be here for!

    I'm losing hope in a GA

    Have there been any GA recently?

    Nothing recent, no.

    Maybe the Chef will cook something up soon for us all to eat

    Bas can help him cook! He likes to eat meals :)
