Elon Musk's AI turns on him, labels him 'one of the most significant spreaders of misinformation on X'
  • Seem like "his" AI isn't that bad after all, eh?

    Still wouldn't wanna use it but it's something I guess

  • YouTube Premium is now showing ads
  • All you have to do is install Ublock...

  • Adobe's decision to eliminate perpetual licensing for its Elements software has stirred controversy among consumers
  • Elements were always just so much inferior to the full versions that you're better off using free alternatives anyway

  • Many TV stations put a banner ad in the picture these days
  • Most of those rear-projection TV were 60 Hz, with the high-end ones often having 120 Hz.

  • That TV looks killer for retro consoles...

    ThinkPad P14s G5 AMD OLED in Germany

    Does anyone know how to order or configure the P14s G5 AMD with a OLED display on the German Lenovo site?

    The OLED display seems to be NA exclusive apart from a few overpriced offers from third party sites...

    Dropping an iPhone 16 Pro vs iPhone 15 Pro Down Crazy Spiral Staircase 100 Feet - Will It Survive?
  • they are definitely a recommendation to buy for people like me.

    Drop tests never yield realistic results (even non-sensationalist ones) because there are about a million different ways to drop a phone.

    Get a decent case, that's the best advice anyone could give you.

  • Dropping an iPhone 16 Pro vs iPhone 15 Pro Down Crazy Spiral Staircase 100 Feet - Will It Survive?
  • I mean, yeah I guess?

    My question was why some people find these tech destruction videos entertaining and I thought that you, as someone who posted a link to one to a technology board, could give your opinion on that but apparently not.

  • X Payments delayed after Musk’s X weirdly withdrew application for NY license

  • That's nice to hear.

    I couldn’t walk past a baby kangaroo without taking a turn.

    I'd probably do the same if given the opportunity

    That's somehow even more disgusting than Tucker's comment

    I just wanna get to know people and maybe make a few friends. I've tried a bunch of servers over the years, both general and specific ones but it never really worked out I guess? (I'm a pretty awkward person to talk to, maybe that's why^^)

    Pixel 6 Pro main camera lens jolts around violently when going into video mode

    When switching into video mode from photo mode or vice versa the main lens' OIS kinda jolts it around which makes a rather loud click.

    I'm on Android 14 and the latest Google Camera update.

    What do you like to collect?

    Saw a post like this on Reddit once and I thought some of the responses were quite interesting.

    I collect all sorts of stuff from vinyl records and vintage game consoles to Harley-Davidson dealer t-shirts.

    I'm curious about what some of you guys collect, the weirder the better :D

    Blu-Ray Drive in a T540P?

    I know they never were an option since the T400/T500 days and I've seen people flat out say that even if they fit, they won't work with the T440P/T540P.

    There are a bunch of different stores online selling the Hitachi LG BU20N as "for Lenovo T440P/T540P" and some also claim that the Matsushita UJ262 would work.

    Has anyone got a Blu-ray drive in their T440P/T540P or knows if it would work?

    Edit: Saw someone claim they got a Hitachi LG BU40N working in a T440P and since that's basically the same as the BU20N, with added UHD Blu-Ray support, that means the BU20N should work fine?

    Next time I see them being sold at a reasonable price I'll grab one and just try it out for myself.

    Edit 2: For anyone coming across this post in the future; I now have a HLDS BU20N (HP OEM) installed in my T540p and it plays back blu-ray discs without issue.

    Updated Edge and it now seems to put a frame with rounded corners around every website

    Edit: Looks like you can opt-out of that "new look and feel" pretty easily under the appearance settings but still, whats with putting rounded corners everywhere?

    Edit 2: "Explore the web with a softer, more friendly aesthetic featuring rounded corners [..] Designed to complement your operating system, whether on Windows 11, MacOS, or Linux." The fuck does that mean? Windows 11 fair enough but most Linux distros don't look like that at all.

    One of the seven albums they've released that year and in my opinion also their best one so far.

    T41 sticky lid

    A friend of mine gave a an old ThinkPad T41 and it's in great condition for one of these without any cracks in the chassis. There are a few marks on the display but it doesn't look like it's cracked (I don't have the right power supply to test it out).

    The biggest problem with it so far is that the rubberised finish on the lid has turned sticky. I tried to wipe it down with diluted isopropyl alcohol and while it looks pretty clean now it's still very sticky.

    Is there a way to fix the stickiness without full-on scraping the coating off?

    Got a T540p for free and upgraded it, just for the hell of it

    Got this T540p for free from work, it came with a dual-core i5-4200M, 8GB of RAM, the awful 1080p TN panel and the GT730M dGPU.

    Upgrades: New TrackPad (T450 Synaptics), i7-4700QM, 16 GB DDR3L RAM, AUO B156HAN01.2, and a good clean (yep, that's an upgrade in my books).

    The i7 runs quite well in there, I had some doubts about the thermal situation since it's a 47-watt chip in a dGPU model but so far it holds up pretty well with a -70mw undervolt and Arctic MX-4 thermal paste. Idle it gets up to around 45°C, under load I've never seen it get hotter than 75°C. In addition to Throttlestop, I'm using TPFC on the "smart" setting to keep the noisy Toshiba fan from ramping up and down every .2 seconds.

    The GT730M isn't good for much these days but it runs older games quite well. All in all, I ended up really liking this ThinkPad. It's very annoying to take apart, though.
