    SSDs - State of the Product?

    The problem is that QLC is slower in writes than the MLC was ten years ago. :( I hope we are not left with slow, crappy and cheap vs. very expensive, high performance SSDs in a few years with no middle ground.

    Happy Holidays (2018)

    Xmas was good and nobody in the hospital, etc. Some induan food got my intestines by mid-day though there was American food in the evening. I actually ate a good portion of dead turkey for the first time in... I can't remember.

    No I don't want to. I select Mens but the brand has Womens dept. also. Now I'm locked out because my email and password are not good enough. Supposedly they sent me some kind of message, but I cannot access it. F*ck it.

    The problem is that since Amazon shipping sucks, I'm less interested in them for normal products, but for the weird small ones like the voltage source. I understand that eBay is the haven for all that stuff, but it is 10x worse as there are numerous suppliers. Meanwhile Amazon keeps...

    Have all those performance robbing malware fixes been resolved? I was thinking about a new system next year since 2018 was so messed up. I'd hope we have 8 cores at 5GHz with some aquatic.

    The white ones look like a medical device for draining the ear or something. I don't know the reason for that funky design.

    I would probably use my standard hint, 16-digit alpha numeric data totally unrelated to the question. I am not in the F***b**k, Tw*t***, etc. so nobody would know them.

    Somehow I posted to the wrong thread. :( I looked and is ODM. I typically use that based on advice given that it is a generic name for the original device manufacturer, rather than a human name. I could use DELL I suppose. I usually specify no password or something like 12345678.

    Yeah, it is Windows 7. Of course if Yubiclo is a good idea and works well I'm 100% sure we won't implement it. :(

    I found it far too long/boring and didn't watch the whole thing. However, it doesn't seem too smart of an entrapment to do that at home, especially in the US. The victim might return and exact revenge. :)

    Samsung Note 9 - anyone else using this phone?

    Is that crappy codec due to the Androids (8?) or is Samsung trying to reduce the bandwidth? I only played the BT a few times in vehicles, but it sounds fine and very good on the Bozeman headphones form a 2017 phone on v.7.

    Yubico Yubikey - increasing your authentication for services

    It just says loading forever. :( Something like that would be good for the Office. I had to buy a phone to receive the messages from the MS jerks to log in every few days. :mad: It was better when we had those RSA token things. They lasted a couple of years and were not a hassle like a phone.

    My Experience Ripping a Damaged / Bad CD & How to possibly recover it (v. guide)

    I suppose we are supposed to listen to the iphones like the Milleniums? Now they all have those drainage tubes from the eardrums. I don't need audio except on the road or airlines. In a couple of years there will be hardly any cars anyway. We will really be screwed.

    Best USB flash drive for booting and small files

    After Amazon screwed me the fourth time in less than two months on shipments being "undeliverable" I'm trying to figure where to buy some of the smaller electronic/computer items. Does anybody use the real UPS or real FedEx (not Home) anymore? I don't want free shipping, but reliable shipping...

    If there a VF or is that a clip-on option? I suppose no VF is fine for people with young/strong arms. How people hold the camera with one hand and shade the VF from the sun with the other is beyond me.

    WiFi Adapters

    Do you have no IT support in an office building? I'd expect they don't require such a long distance for wi-fi. Most offices run cable for wi-fi APs at reasonable distances. The building engineers may also have info on the construction and infrastructure of the building.

    Of course and that was a few years ago. I'm surprised that Sedorkian is noticing a large difference and suspect that there are multiple variables involved or it is mental perception.

    I was rather disappointed with the PCIe drives vs. SATA. The later NVMe drives are somewhat faster, but nowhere nearly as proportional to the STR numbers.

    HAMR or Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording. 100 TB HDD by 2025.

    The Seagate HAm-R is finally in limited production. Perhaps the yields truly suck or something so they won't be commercial for a while yet. Maybe that MAm-R will be out by 2020 also.

    I'm surprised that it exists at all. The vast majority of purchases are now sight unseen due to the destruction of the B-M stores. Every press release is regurgitated 1000x online in milliseconds. Even years ago those shows were more useful for the smaller companies that really needed...
