  • Just checked, there are still brand new monitors on the market with just VGA+HDMI (e.g. MSI MP223, DELL SE2722H), but you'd really have to scrape the bottom of the barrel nowadays to find one. I think I actually might have a GPU with one of those lying around somewhere, thought, but does it even count if I never used one?

  • Yeah, MP Trios and glance which are type c only, latter also having hdmi. Though last time I dealt with desktop equipment I think was within 5 years but the pieces were probably more than 5 years old, think those were xiaomi a1's and some random chineese FHD panels, with either 1650 or 1050 cards when we've built some budget workstations. I swear I didn't try to avoid DP, just got lucky to deal with last pieces of equipment without it, and working remote on laptops got me severely out of touch with modern hardware.

  • Yeah. It's a video interface but I have never seen the physical port, as I've said I have 6 monitors hooked using it's signalling protocol, but all the physical connections are either type-c(DP alt mode) or eDP.

  • I gotta confess, as an IT guy I have never ever seen displayport in my life. Not a port, nor a cable. Which is especially weird given that I have 6 displays hooked up that technically use it without a single actual port.

  • Search images for "port"

    Literally every single photo is of a ship docked starboard

  • It's not just gapps, though. Search, gtags/adsense, youtube, maps, etc are all so pervasive that google effectively controls the internet. You can try run ublock and a plethora of privacy addons, but those are only effective as long as Google is playing nice. Others, like Yandex, are not, and they defeat all those with ease.

    Though I'd say running custom rom is an exception from the rule, along with people running with dumb or even no phone, but those are not but a blip on a big picture.

  • Any BSD folk 'round here?

  • If you even have a phone then Google, the phone's manufacturer, your ISP, the NSA and their respective governments already know everything about you.

  • That's just the normal state of Russian economy

  • $2.70

  • You can absolutely use monero without converting it to other currency. You just haven't looked in right places. Of course you can't buy a loaf of bread with it, but you cannot use gold either, neither can you rent a server with something like mongolian togrog, yet, they're all still valid forms of currency.

  • It's not. I carry one(mix 3s) as a pocket laptop for when Im going out but might need to do some work urgently and also as a lightweight backup in case something happens to my main laptop. For the former, it's been great and saved me many times, but for the latter... this did once happen when I bonked the entire screen out. To say it was a painful week while waiting for the replacement would be an understatement. My back was killing me the entire time, and the thing is so underpowered it was easier to remote into that screenless pc rather than trying to launch stuff locally. And even with that, the thing whirred like crazy. It's fine for a few minutes at a time but hearing it sll fay got annoying quick. And dont even get me started on the keyboard...

  • Forgot this comic, thought it was about ratshaker

  • A habit from playing online riddles, I guess, to run everything strange through ROT13 and anagram solver. Should've been obvious that it'd be fruitless, though, given that there's only one vowel.

  • My first thought was it's some kind of code. But BMHGADHD doesn't ring any bells nor any anagram solvers yield any result

  • My first bike as someone who learned to ride one at 30. Have a bit of a love-hate relationship with it. On one hand, AWD absolutely rocks, on the other, the build quality is so-so. Thinking of switching to e-moto once I get my license.
