This has been a long time doubt of mine. Right now, I download the ISO onto my NAS, then copy it over to my PC, install it and play. If instead, I decided to install the game at a network location and play it off the network location, how bad would my loading time/playing experience be? Provided - 1. I use 2.5 GbE ethernet all round. 2. The NAS is a SATA SSD. I dont play competitively or even online. I mostly only play single player games with a storyline or the like and I'm only now...

Product Name: AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT Expected Price: Rs 5500 + Shipping Reason for Sale: Upgraded. Description: I purchased the CPU (New Sealed Pack) from a reseller in Bangalore. Although he hasn't provided the invoice, he did say "I will get the invoice from my supplier if the need arises" when I asked " How will the warranty be handled if something happened to CPU?". In this case, you can pretty much assume it's past its warranty. Product condition: 8 of 10. Purchase Date: Aug 20... Read more ..read more

Well, the attitude of Indian authorities, including the honorable supreme court, towards technology adoption, based on their actions and words, seems to suggest that they seem to often have a flimsy understanding of risks that can befall populations when technology is implemented at scale. Their statements frankly seem to often be driven by bureaucratic affidavits, without concern to true assessment of potential risks, including privacy. It has been discussed here in the context of AADHAR in... Read more ..read more

Hello peeps!!! My PC is about 3 yrs old (Pls refer for specs in the img attached below) and has no problems apart from this weird ping spike problem while playing games. If I play any online game in Wifi, there is a sudden spike in ping that goes from 70ms to 200,300ms (This number is from "Rocket League") for like 5 seconds and this happening atleast twice every minute, which is really annoying. I have noticed this very problem in all the games I've tried so far (FC24, E-football, COD)... Read more ..read more

My 2TB HDD (Toshiba HDWD120UZSVA) with ~700GB of data crashed due to a severe power fluctuation that overwhelmed the UPs. The drive is still accessible and I managed to copy a few GBs of data from it. But it's slow going, probably due to bad sectors from the crash. So far, I've tried only one session of copying with Tera Copy, not any recovery software. I can probably recover most of the data myself after doing a surface scan but didn't want to risk causing further damage and data loss, so... Read more ..read more

Reason for 3/5: Somehow managed to hit the power button on the headboard of my bed at just the right angle and managed to crack the Touch ID sensor. While the power button itself is works fine, Touch ID functionality is lost. This happened over 1.5 years ago. I been using it as-is since then. Whatever damage has happened is underneath the top layer so the damaged bit will not chip or fall off. Apple does not repair iPads and charges a hefty sum to provide a replacement unit. Third...

As you know our parents and grandparents like to believe in the babas and all and are easily scammed, like my mother bought a 5k stone for me from some shady baba, so I'm making this thread to show how the app AstroTalk take advantage of their sentiment and extort money from them. Mods, if I'm using harsh words for the forum (take advantage and extort), you can delete the thread or edit it ..read more

Hi guys, I'm seeking advice from fellas who've been in similar situation before and have bought either of the above-mentioned devices. I have used Samsung's Fold 2 extensively for about 1.5 years before both the screens gave way in September last year. I got a Google Pixel 8 Pro as a replacement but I JUST CAN'T go back to normal slab phones anymore. Excels and pdfs on foldables are just a bliss to glide through and even after 4 months with my Pixel 8 Pro, I cant get used to it. So it's up... Read more ..read more
