    Nice. As a real farmer it is always fun to farm and make money.

    WTB: AMD FX-8350, 8370, 9370, or 9590

    Just as a PSA, those 9000s are like space heaters...might be best to keep away. And if you dong find anything here over on fleabay you can find 8320s for like 30 bucks where an 8350 is more than twice that. 8320 is just a few ticks slower...that is what I did on the last fx upgrade I did for...

    Shed keeps getting broken into

    power is the trick. The shed would need to be really power efficient

    Shed keeps getting broken into

    Illegals aren't the whole problem. A lot want to come here for a better life. I get that. Minimum wage is like $19....a day. Here it is 19.50/hr. But then some get here and good intentions get corrupted. We see it all the time. Some workers work too hard and get told by others to slow...

    Shed keeps getting broken into

    Par for the course here...the government and press here vilifies crop producers. Some in the legislature call us slave drivers. Truth of the matter is we are getting close to be regulated out of business. The quad I mentioned earlier wasn't even our quad. It belonged to a manager that lives...

    Shed keeps getting broken into

    crop protection products for apple and cherry production...only 70mi from a city with more than 5000 people.

    Shed keeps getting broken into

    Washington...I think shotguns are still allowed for now. The police are allowed to chase bad guys again, so there is that I guess. Prosecutors on the otherhand...... Last year we had a quad in the process of being stolen and called the sheriff. Caught them red handed. All he was allowed to...

    Shed keeps getting broken into

    I have a shed that is getting broken into twice a week. A few weeks ago, $24k worth of crop protection materials were stolen and ever since then, the perps are coming twice a week looking for another score. I want to get some cameras up because this is getting ridiculous. Now for the...

    Opinion: Could Broadcom buy Intel

    No one is buying intel. Lina Khan ain't allowing M&A these days...and even if she allowed it then the EU and UK would have to sign off. How long did Microsoft and Activision take? The Adobe figma deal died because it couldn't get through.

    Video camera recording system

    I need some help getting pointed in the right direction... We have a remote farm that we want to mount a couple of cameras. One camera as a sort of area shot the other more directly at the ground. When it looks stormy, then be able to watch or pull up archived footage to look for hail. The...

    10gb questions….

    I can echo this... When I got my house back in 2009, I ran a ton of cat5e all over the house. Every room has multiple cat5e drops because I don't trust wifi. About a year ago, built a nas and did iSCSI over 10gbe for the gaming computers to store the games. I thought 'well, either my cat5e...

    Asus Hero Crosshair X570 VIII vs. MSI Meg B550 Unify for 5950X

    I too have a couple of 5950xs. I think one is better, but it seems when I actually put the screws to them they are about the same. Both are under water with PBO enabled and a custom set core offset. With some time (mainly at night when you sleep) running core cycler you can get each core...

    Oldest gamer I know

    my grandfather would be 99 this year...he died in 2008 from dementia. He bought an apple II when they came out and played the helicopter game with the two paddles. It wasn't a powerful enough machine, so he quickly got an at&t 6300 (I think) and got MS flight sim and monopoly. His favorite...

    Target joins Best Buy and discontinues sales of DVD's and Blurays

    that is correct. I have two drives that can do 4ks, but i had to install different firmware.

    Target joins Best Buy and discontinues sales of DVD's and Blurays

    I'm not surprised. That said, I still only buy physical media. I have a 120in screen and a projector with an atmos system in the basement with an oppo 4K player that made getting a GPU during the apocalypse look easy. Streamed content is wonky...especially in the black parts of a picture...
