  1. Yeah I am also not keen on buying a bug for my house. While I am a nobody that no one cares about, I've heard about the breaches of privacy that have happened already. Even iPhone support has been known to breach that as well. They brag about firing them afterwards but that doesnt resolve the initial breach. For now I have picked up a couple of KASA smart plugs since in one of the top reviews the guy noted that it can be controlled "locally" without need of cloud support or even manufacturer support. This will be my gateway drug into automation I am sure
  2. Hadn't seen this option yet, thanks for sharing! I'm fairly certain it's just poor insulation and inefficient air conditioning. It's using 3x the power of my mining rig (10x GPU's) and still can't keep the house below 70F. My room is typically 80-85F these days
  3. I've been on and off looking at automation but mostly for monitoring power usage. Since my power bill has hit 600 this month I am again interested in revisiting this topic. Just curious to others' experience in this domain 🙂
  4. I remember when I was young I used to think that new models should come with better features or in general be overall a better product than the previous year. These days we have measure just how much crap you have to walk through from PR events, Reviews and finally getting the product and figuring out yourself just how much of it is false. I struggle to maintain a positive outlook, and that bothers me.
  5. Link added to the original ThrottleStop Guide and spoiler tag removed for video tutorial (since nothing was present)
  6. Good Afternoon everyone! First off, congrats to all of us as we now have over 500 members on the forum! This is all due to word of mouth as many of you have had profiles on other forums and shared links to this forum. For that, I thank you all for sharing how NBR members could find NotebookTalk and chat it up with familiar faces. I would like to also announce my intent to give a bit of standardization for the official threads, in particular the official threads that are directly related to specific model laptop(s). I will make another announcement in the future when that is settled. Lastly I have accepted and made changes to a request made by @1610ftw to allow for the OEM Uniwill to have its own sub-forum, which is also better known as TongFang. This can be found in the list of Notebook Manufacturer sub-forum. Also since the beginning of NBT, there has been no activity within the Gigabyte/Aorus as well as Apple sub-forums. As a result I have deprecated them for the time being. Of course any content related to such subjects are still welcomed! If content being generating for such brands we will be happy to re-make those subforums
  7. If anyone is in contact with them, encourage them to reach out if they so wish to find a new home. We may be able to facilitate!
  8. From a distributed computing standpoint that scenario is interesting lol
  9. I like Energy Efficiency but mostly because I like keeping my money. Though that just means said product is more expensive more often than not, been looking at Window AC units LG OLD units are almost a hundred or more cheaper, where the dual inverter types are more expensive. First world problems I suppose
  10. USB 3 and NVME support are typically the huge asks that people look to have spliced in. Thanks for sharing
  11. Saw some thumbnails lately talking about aib's wanting 40xx delayed due to excessive stock of the 30xx. Any credibility to that claim or just click bait?
  12. Well for me it's while sleeping in the room. While it's not forced air level of dB and pitch it's still uhh noteworthy lol
  13. Yeah I think I'm going to move my desk against the wall, list the gpu stack on top of the desk and bring in my bedside chest to extend my usable area from wall to wall, this way I can I have my window fans pulling heat straight outside without conflicting with my projector One thing I cant get around is I will need another couple pieces of wood to provide more surface area as well as create another duct for my server psu's
  14. Seeing people getting promoted despite being 30% below threshold.
  15. You're not supposed to say that out loud, now they are going to go for a special DDR5X route so you would need RAM as well 😮
  16. Man, lovely machine Too rich for my blood, for now. GLWS!
  17. Well no one likes having words put in their mouth, this time was just a bit more literal tqhn as per usual lol
  18. Need to pick one of these up, been using high pressure water to clean my heatsinks for some years now. Cheaper and I guess better for environment? Makes cleaning heatsinks an all day affair
  19. Because the last time you opened a thread you were asking for more than your budget limit permitted. Going from that to 4k120 is worlds apart. Unless of course your financial situation changed then go ham lol
  20. Yeah that's word salad. Uniwill (Tongfang) is likely how it will be named but I would welcome adding the additional context within the sub forum.
