5 inches thick? It’s a chunky clam chowder can, yikes
Unless it’s circumference, otherwise it should be advertised as a 5.25inch floppy
If it’s 5.25 inches when floppy, how big is it when the drive is hard?
I hear it gets to 10.5" right before he faints from the sudden drop in blood pressure.
It is circumference. And thickness >>> length.
needle dick then
Thank you, this detail had me scratching my head. D≈1.56" makes so much more sense.
Not knowing the difference between circumference and thickness? Instant turn off.
The rule is that you would report the bigger number. It’s dick sizes - there’s hundreds of contrived ways to brag.
110 mils
Those are like espresso machine specs nowadays
Buddy I have less than that I’m so fukken done… I’m bout to go to hexbear mutual aid and beg for some buck to get a new pc…
Plus the required network connection and AI.
Could be a perfectly good FreeBSD box!
Well they are sure gonna have fun with all this equipment
Eww 5400 rpm hdd, even in the year here the pc is new is a hard no (also the drive would be 500 gb not 512 that’s an ssd thing not mechanical drives typically). 7200 rpm and highest cache amount possible please
Smell like server specs. Put Jellyfin on it haha
What? No tons of desktop drives were this way too. I mean yes WD RE style drives were fantastic but WD black was always the way to go back in mechanical days. They were for desktop.
I mean homelab server
Which 4th May is this from? Because if it’s from 2007 then that’s a perfectly reasonable mid-range machine, but if it’s from last month then I really hope he’s only using it as a personal Linux box for tinkering.
ATI graphics sucked ass on Linux. Back then nVidia was recommended due to their superior drivers.
Or he’s just saying he’s an older gentleman
A gentleman using a Core 2 Duo rig from a more civilised age.
Old enough to be someone’s father or grandfather
I mean it’s from at least roughly back when ATi was a thing
Well, the x1950 Pro is from Oct 2006 but Grindr didn’t launch until March 2009. And I don’t know if it launched with the iconic colours but I don’t remember any other colours and I do remember using Grindr in 2010. Not sure about 2009.
Edit: nice dick tho
You remember using Grindr? Hah, gay
Good thing that was the giveaway, and not the “nice dick” edit, because I’d like to point out that it’s perfectly normal to compliment an acquaintance’s dick or give it a suck.
If you don’t give the dick a little suck, how can you really know how nice it is?
That’s actually kind of sad.
I remember doing a ton of stuff on my core 2 Duo iMac with 2gb ram.
Sure, you won’t be playing cyberpunk, but it ran all the creative suite apps, a few games, and I did a ton of image editing, made movies, and did programming on it.
My 2007 MacBook (white plastic) had a Core 2 Duo and 4GB RAM. For my first MacBook it was a perfectly usable laptop, but boy did it drop off a cliff fast. Tried putting Linux on it a while back, but it didn’t want to know.
Meanwhile, the 2011 MacBook I replaced it with (Core i7, 16GB RAM) is running Mint like a dream.
This guy fucks.
He better, because he doesn’t game for sure
Hot.
Holy hell it’s Grok
…squints a little…
Also, HMU with Blue’s profile. I want to get some work out tips from him.
Intel Core 2 Duo? 4 GB DDR3 RAM?
Cretaceous period intensifies
That was my home server specs til February. Upgraded to a third gen i5 and 8gb ram
I don’t know what you guys are talking about?
I’ve used an old laptop with Windows 11 (just because I wasn’t supposed to) which had Core 2 Duo T7500 (upgraded from T7100), 4GB of DDR2 RAM, GeForce 8600M GT, but with an SSD rather than HDD. Pretty usable with that thing.Unfortunately it broke, but I think it would still be just as good.
Probably the faulty nvidia die substrate issue. I’m amazed it lasted this long, most of those chips died long ago.
Yeah, I’ve seen such stuff on old forums. Unfortunately, a replacement GPU would cost around €50, and that is just not worth it to try obviously.
The CPU was €1.38 on AliExpress, so that was worth a try, but for the most part it just produced more heatSome different GPU would probably work there, but then again, I don’t know if it is a GPU issue. It wouldn’t even show any drive activity when attempting to boot.
Pretty usable with that thing.
Unfortunately it broke, but I think it would still be just as good.
So pretty usable until windows 11 broke it?
No, the hardware died. Just randomly shut down a few times until it didn’t boot nor POST. Anymore. The most it could do is spin a fan and output 5V to USB.
How is that usable? My work laptop with win11 is at 8-10 GB after boot
Perhaps early Windows 11 was a bit different. Plus I disabled Superfetch and BITS which would otherwise max out CPU, and when still on HDD, that too.
Though I am not entirely sure if I also disabled something else.It could idle at around 5% I believe.
Also, unused RAM is wasted RAM. Just because it’s used doesn’t mean it’s unusably full. Linux too will eat up entire RAM for caching, but it can be freed when needed.
oh god what the fuck you ran windows fucking 11 on it??? i have no words
You think thats hot…I got a Ryzen 3…
I hope this is a really old meme, otherwise I fell bad for my bro.
Pretty sure that set up and this guy both sucked before Grindr launched.
otherwise I fell bad for my bro
Not sure if you meant to write “feel”, but it is too late now.
Maybe you should get in touch 😏
5400RPM?!
Ghosted.
It’s energy efficient and quiet 🥺 it’s romantic because it takes longer 🥺
I wouldn’t have gotten that far. That utter savage can’t even tell the difference between MT/s and MB/s.
I would understand if he ran away. Not because you’re a nerd, but because of the wooden computer
When Protogens use Grindr
Can confirm
Intel
Okay off to a bad start.
Core 2 Duo
Ok boomer.
I can strapolate his other stats based on these
I can strapolate all the stats are what he made up in his head
