I wonder if they do it on phones as well. Not everyone has a 256GB+ device, and 4GB would be a significant chunk on even that.


Yes Google intended to stop sideloading but is facing backlash.


I’d like to use a aliexpress M.2 to RJ45 adapter on the Chromebook.
Make sure it is of the right kind. M.2 Wi-Fi slots are key E, M.2 SSD slots are key M (mostly) and cards made for 1 kind does not fit the other.
If the slot is for Wi-Fi it should have PCIe as that is what most Wi-Fi modules connect to. USB is used for Bluetooth mostly.


Wait, I thought Japan is going to have a driver shortage as the government was moving to limit driver work hours for safety?


Nitro+ is Sapphire’s flagship model but they chose to use that connector which is unfortunate in my opinion. They do have other models of 9070XT with the old 8 pin connectors.
It is not the end of the world if you have to use a card with 12V-2x6, they are on all current gen nVidia cards and they don’t all melt. I’m just saying for AMD cards you can choose to avoid it for the peace of mind as the old 8 pin connector is much less likely to melt (though not completely unheard of).


For 9070XT, just don’t get the version with the 12V-2x6 / 12VHPWR connector, save some worrying over whether it will burn some day.


Unbuffered ECC DIMMs can be used as-is even on PCs not supporting ECC
Registered DIMMs can be unsoldered and the RAM chips reused in a pinch converting them to unbuffered DIMMs I suppose?
But reports of manufacturing capacity being moved to HBM will not benefit consumers if the bubble bursts.
Carriages aren’t the same ever since they went without any horse dung.
