As stupid as having invented nuclear weapons is, the stupidity of everything else following it makes artificial intelligence correcting monumental stupidity even more dangerous for humans than nukes because humans are the cause that is the problem to a higher intelligence.

Edit:// by that I mean, AI poses a greater threat of causing human extinction than nuclear weapons. The next level of human stupidity after nukes is creating an intelligence that is not stupid which will inevitably be tasked to solve the world's problems when humans are the problem causing the problems.

I have a spare MSi N750 Ti-2GD5/OCV1 sitting around here but idk if I can run it on either of these rigs anyway. Recommend psu for that is 400w vs GTX 950 recommend psu being 250w.
Yeah the psu is 550w rated but they're notoriously unreliable. I mean they do work, but don't expect them to sustain 550. Also the fans are prone to failing after 3 or so years... these rigs I have are older than that and idk how many hours they've had.

I guess I could maybe sorta try to figure that out by pulling the ssd's and running tests. I'd still be guessing though.



The monitor still works, but after being on for about 30 minutes I can see backlight bleed around the edges. Still usable for me anyway, for hardware testing purposes, as it's perfectly fine for about 10 minutes.

Turn down the brightness/backlight and see if it still does?

Yeah I will try that maybe tomorrow. But I might have to pop it open eventually and see if I can do something.
It's still useful as is anyway, just under 24".

The fourms seem a bit slow lately. Or is it just me?

EDIT: So I decided to buy some games from Gamestop since a lot of games were on big discount even being sold. Of course a few of those games I bought as new were sold as used :/ At least they work and seem to come with any inserts they had. Lesson learned, not buying online again from GS again.

That's due to their return policy. Games returned for whatever reason and are still as new are then sold as new, not used. EB have done that forever over here, which is why whenever I buy a "new" game there (haven't for ages now) I ask for a sealed copy from out the back. If they don't have one I say I'm not interested

Got an ASUS VW246H for around $6usd.
Pretty much perfect condition, I tested it thoroughly before purchasing

Also found a Japanese mobile phone, it's fairly old (1999 release I think?).
Panasonic J-P01.

Doesn't use a sim card.

This mobile phone does not accept SIM cards. It can be used by registering a phone number at a Softbank Shop. Phone number registration is not possible now.

When I first came across it I honestly thought it was a kids toy, it's small and the buttons are fucking tiny
Still has a battery and both port covers are there, but idk if I have any way of charging it

I recently read about a resident evil mobile game being dumped and later see comments regarding the scene looking for old jp phones(like the one you have) as they possibly have old games on them that can be dumped.
so you might actually have something of value there.

Early Docomo phones with colour screen are what people are looking for, dumping games I mean.
This is older... monochrome tiny screen. I'm not even sure any games would be on these phones. Smart watches now have a bigger screen that this
Yeah snake on old Nokia phone was on a larger screen.

For this I think it was just custom ringtones there wouldn't be anything else there.

[Andy_Jerk]

Who is Rinsky though???? Isn't she from Red Hurricane or something???

[Till]

Oh shit Andy's back!

Edit, Rinsky would be a good team up with Cammy and Rolento. If Marvel toons are included then with Rogue and Cammy. I'd like to see 5 vs 5 Marvel vs Capcom MUGEN matches so I can see Chun Li, Cammy, Rogue, Storm and Sakura team up.

I don't practice Christmas or any modern Christian tradition, Gnostic. I still have First Amendment rights as a US citizen though and I am allowed to be untraditional to no limit. To me Christmas trees are a Wiccan, pagan rite of Yule and Christmas is an extension of Halloween. So, facts are facts and have yourself a scary little Christmas now.

I'll keep that in mind in case I ever decide to buy from GS again. I don't see them lasting for much longer though.
