    Recently got a refurbished S20 ultra for the 5g.

    This thing is great. 12 gb of ram, 128 gb internal storage, microsd slot up to 1tb, 108 MP camera…

    I worked in a refurbishing warehouse of Cisco products, so I know they’re good to go, so I always buy refurbished electronics when I can. Got the phone for $350, learned later that it retailed for like $1200 or something when it was released.

    This thing is tits.









  • A San Jose, California startup has raised $116 million in hopes of introducing [a] micro-electromechanical system that shoots air out of a solid-state chip, cooling with a device thinner and quieter than most fans could manage.

    Zotac has just announced it will sell an AirJet-cooled mini-PC for $499 by the end of this year.

    temper your expectations: the “Zotac Zbox PI430AJ Pico with AirJet” isn’t exactly the kind of PC that sets most gadget lovers’ hearts aflame. It’s a barebone bring-your-own-SSD box designed primarily for edge computing, Internet of Things, and digital signage — the company’s biggest customers power displays in shopping malls, restaurants, medical clinics and the like, Zotac global marketing director Ernest Siu tells me.

    It’s got a 7W Intel Core i3-N300 processor that nominally runs at 800MHz, with onboard graphics, 8GB of LPDDR5 memory, HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4, Gigabit Ethernet, and three 10Gbps USB 3.2 jacks, including another DisplayPort 1.4 over USB-C

    It’s not super spooky, but like 7 years ago, I took a solo road trip to Ione, NV (an abandoned gold rush town).

    When I pulled in, one of the first things I noticed was a flower in a pot on the windowsill of a house. Thing is: that flower was clearly alive and well, indicating that it got regular watering.

    After about an hour of taking photos, I was starting to drive up the hill to the highest house in the town. That’s when I saw a single wide trailer with the door open from afar.

    That was it, just a single-wide with the door open, but I got such a weird, unexplainable, instinctual feeling of danger that I just high-tailed it out of there to Berlin just next door.

    I never learned if someone was there in Ione; to this day it was just a weird feeling. But it was fucking weird.

    Edit: the house I was driving to was top right of this beautiful pic taken by yours truly. And if I remember correctly, this was the trailer.
