Well, it's not so easy nowadays after all the R&D that went into imitations.

Could be bamboo.

That card doesn't give me much hope for AI designed PCBs. At least there isn't a shortage of PCIe 1x pins though...

I hate to break it to ya, but that pictures from like 2010. And those are SLI connectors.

God damned Millenials don't even know about Crossfire and SLI smh

[–] ashughes@feddit.uk 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hey, I’m a millennial! I not only remember Crossfire and SLI, I still hold a grudge against Nvidia for killing 3dfx.

Still miss my first eBay purchase which was a voodoo2 12mb monster from late 98.

Sold an old motherboard a month earlier so it was basically free!

I'd love more wood definetly.

In all seriousness though it’s actually worth a read. It’s fairly short too so it’s not a huge commitment

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

i do but my girlfriend definitely needs this book

sorry, cheap boomer humor. i don't even have a girlfriend.

[–] felixwhynot@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

WOMEN! AM I RIGHT GUYS???

[–] grue@lemmy.world -1 points 1 day ago

How is that a sequel? It's not even by the same author.

Aspen: you can tell it's an aspen because of the way that it is.

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

This site can’t be reached Check if there is a typo in annas-archive.org. DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

Sounds like your DNS server is filtered. Try using another server (like 9.9.9.9) in your network connection.

[–] kazerniel@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

loads for me, in the UK

[–] DavidP@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Check your library system, that's where I read it.

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago

Wood you look at that.

[–] Sektor@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

It's an older meme, but it checks out.

And this is going on my grindr picture folder... can't wait to send this to Chesty Mcdickpic.

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

I want to get this book, then make a video essay on it titled "What the meme gets wrong about the meme book".

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I once posted this picture in response to someone here on lemmy and they responded "I've got that book right behind me." (Possibly paraphrased)

[–] MalReynolds@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

In Anna's, thanks, likely useful...(to me), 1990.

The best way to identify wood, is with your hands. It's easier to feel the firmness and the ridges.

I have a 9-inch specimen I need you to have a look at...
