Interest Checks / Re: [IC] GMK CYL nuSignal

Really excited to see this return but I think there's a lot of uncertainty in the IC. I hope you're taking it all into consideration!

Personally I think the alt-mods is a bit of a stretch; I just don't think the theme is quite strong enough to justify it and would be surprised if they reached MOQ. An alternative option would be to include a text-only bottom row (in the extension kit??) if you really feel like people won't get on board with the pure icon setup we have now.

Additionally, I would love to see some Macro keys as XT boards are getting hotter and hotter, but I am very glad to see some non-minivan 40s keys in the extension kit!

Tp4 still uses 4790k all the time. 4.8giberherbs Delidded. w/16gb 2400mhz ddr3.

Problem these days is the displayport being only 25.9gigabit, maxes out at 4K120fps 8bit with cru tweaks.

Not nearly enough for 10bit out. 32.27gigabit

tp is focusing too much on such details, instead of just have fun and play games! :P
you have strong gpu, oled screen - play games, have pizza and enjoy every minute of it :)

Hey, I say, lets try and pick a game we geekhackers could play together!
Would it work, somehow?
I know time difference, but still - biggest problem will be to pick a game :D

My daughter bought me that Arc Raiders game, but I never really played it. Any good for for us?
Or maybe some other game? HOMM?

Sigh..

Let's put this into terms, the modern-'Murikn can understand.

Imagine,  'Murika is the President+Treasury of the Home Owners Association.


So all the ur00pn ****ries + whole world gave money to the establishment, with the promise of management, duties relevant to road fix applications, garbage collection, street lights, infrastructure, water pipe, meters, etc.

Instead of doing any of those things,  President'Murika bought himself a gun collection, and terrorizes people of the neighborhood.

Favorite neighbors of President'Murkia,  ur00pnns, canada, etc,  are not terrorized, they also get to do some terrorizing of their own.


NOW,  you can only run the clown show for so long before the neighborhood burns out, and people decide to leave the HOA, leave the neighborhood all-together.

Without the HOA, the president is the president of NOTHING.


Players have a choice, and can take their money+resources to a new neighborhood,   Welcome to Sanhai, Welcome to Mocow.

For your usage, I don't think the CPU is going to be an issue at all. The GPU and cooling are what I'd focus on. Also check whether the RAM and storage are replaceable. That could make a difference over the next few years.

One thing I'd check carefully is the actual GPU power limit. Two RTX 5070 Ti GPUs can perform quite differently depending on how much power they're allowed to draw. The desktop and laptop versions aren't exactly interchangeable either.

Think about the relationship between YOU and Your-Boss.

He's not physically or mentally superior, maybe by a little, but Not-Much.

The only reason you "sort of" listen to him, is because he-is-the-boss.


We are born, then Indoctrinated, into systems of Authority, the German Model, to wash-the-unwashed-masses, so that they'd be easier to govern, ala-Education.

There is nothing special about teachers, or counselors, or principals. You Don't fundamentally have to listen to them. 

We accept these things, because at the very top, they, the state, Holds the only true power of the land, MONOPOLY on VIOLENCE, be that violence Sat-Scores, Salary, economic, or Spankings (body, kinetic).


This is where the Bully's Prestige is more powerful than the bully actually is.

He can punch 1 guy, but NOT the whole playground. Civil society accepts the bully's existence, for that he is paid a slight extra for the stability and hierarchy he administers.


But again, if the Bully ever FORGETS that all he has is the "FASCADE" of "POWER". If the Bully ever punched more than a few String-Beans,

2-3 String-beans can easily Strangle and KILL THE BULLY.

If the whole School rebelled, they can also easily kill all the teachers/counselors/principal.


The Bully is just as fragile biologically as any other player on the playground.

Once you "LOSE" that prestige,  Over-Test your fists,  the playground sees, oh, that's all he has?  The STATUS is lost. The Facade is Broken.

If the bully doesn't back-off now,  well..  we know how this works and what comes after.


VIOLENCE is NEVER the ANSWER..   

TRUE, ORDER, is a preferably acceptable deception..
