  • One of the few mallard drakes. Bravo

  • I have one. No dead pixels. It doesn't necessarily do fancy things but that's sort of why I got it. $30 and it tells the time, shows me notifications and lasts over a week before I have to charge it. Eeeeevery now and then I'll use it to control media or play 2048. Hey it even counts my steps!

  • Doesn't look like it currently supports powershell or bash. I don't code but I do a fair bit of scripting. I've played a tiny bit with AI assisted scripting but it's generally left a lot to be desired.

  • Definitely for you to decide, but if you're on a desktop in a single family home you're probably fine. A laptop that you bring around with you I would highly advise against. I would probably also evaluate what other functions the computer serves. Just gaming or also do you do your job on that machine. What else does that machine have access to?

  • Ha I saw that

  • TLDR: do memtest on your RAM

    I recently had an issue for quite some time where my computer would occasionally just hard crash. When it first started happening I tried many of the common tests including memcheck but found nothing. For a while it wasnt super common so I just lived through it. I thought it was an OS thing but it occurred on a different Linux distro and even on the ancient Windows 10 install I have but rarely use. I was just about to pull the trigger on replacing mobo and maybe even CPU+RAM. Before I did that I followed someone's suggestion to do a mem test. I could have at least sworn that I already did that and it came clean but it was an easy enough test to run, so why not.

    Sure enough, found an error. I isolated the faulted DIMM, pulled it out and I haven't had a crash since. Crazy since I'm all but certain I did both memtest from a Linux live iso and the Windows memory checking utility.

    In short, test your RAM. Do multiple passes. Maybe even just try swapping out single DIMMs and running on that for a reasonable ammount of time to see if you can isolate a culprit. It was my first thought when the issue first occurred because it's usually what causes stuff like that. When the tests came up clean originally I assumed it had to be something else. I was wrong.
