  • Chinese SSD Manufacturer UNIS Flash Memory Unveils World’s Fastest PCIe Gen5 SSDs, Featuring Speeds of Up To 14,900 MB/s

  • I'd be more than happy with 1GB/s drives for storage. I'd be happy with SATA3 SSD speeds. I'd be happy if they were still sized like a 2.5" drive. USB4 ports go up to 80Gb/s. I'd be happy with an external drive bay with each slot doing 1 GB/s

  • I'm sure there are data science/center people that can appreciate this. For me all I'm thinking is how hot it runs and how much I wish soon 20TB SSDs would be priced like HDDs

  • Android TV at least you can do simple custom launchers. I'm still hoping a more normal Linux becomes popular for TV. Hoping maybe SteamOS will be the pathway for that

  • It'll fall won't be as dramatic as Digg but it will decline over time. Probably not have a major exodus event like Musk buying Twitter and renaming it and sending people to try BlueSky and Mastodon

  • Why Are Micro Center Flash Drives So Slow?

  • I use nvme enclosures. Very fast and very hot. I also got some fikwot ssd based flash drive that's about the size of a common flash drive. I've seen it sustain around 500MB/s very well. Some type of metal enclosure. At this point I'm probably only buying enclosures and small NVME drives or USB sticks where the enclosure is metal and reviews seem solid saying it's hitting SATA 3+ speeds sustained well

  • Over the years I always hear people in real life tell me how much they loved Parasite, Fight Club, Being John Malkovich, Harold and Maude, Everything Everywhere at Once. They never seem to be able to find movies they like. They never put much effort finding things they'd like

    They're all movies that are from indie filmmakers that managed to get mainstream recognition. Movies like O Brother Where Art Thou, There Will Be Blood, Pulp Fiction, etc. Auteur led movies making original movies. There are tens of thousands of movies being made with passion outside of just return on investment a year. Uncut Gems had some popularity some years ago.

    I can confidently say with certainty that at least a couple hundred a year are good to great. Almost none of them make more than like $5 million at the box office worldwide in their release year. Most barely get screens and even in AMCs they show to theaters of like 3 people

    Discovery issue but also even marketed with great trailers, people aren't going taking the risk of being disappointed. Either it goes viral or people aren't watching it. Japanese movies to non-Japanese people might as well just be anime adaptations and the latest Godzilla movie

    Korean movies was for a period just Old boy to people that googled and then just Parasite. Maybe the Wailing.

    Every other country in the US may as well not exist when it comes to movies. Like 1000 feature length movies a year from the US but the only ones people know are like 5 blockbusters a year where they may watch 2 and then when the Oscars come around they learn of a handful of indie movies and maybe try the best picture winner. That's it. Even a movie they like, they can't come up with the idea of seeing who directed or wrote it and see what else they've done. We can complain about studios all we want but time and time again we are shown that the general consumer including the whiners in here will not try to find what isn't already popular. Same with music, television, books, etc.

    Unless it has a cookie cutter easy to see the appeal hook, very few people will show up. Celebrities they think are attractive and action. Way more competition now though. I don't think romance movies are major anymore. Plenty of good content, you just don't know it and you don't take risks. That includes everyone complaining about Netflix. There's plenty on there and Amazon Prime. There's plenty that hits the AMC or other major chain. You just don't watch it. You're a part of the problem.
