precisely. a few years ago i thought people will become more used to cyberspace and at some point revolt against digital blackboxes as much as if the builders or housing agents would put actual blackboxes into people’s homes. but no, digital literacy is going down, i guess the newest generation doesn’t even know that we had start menus without candy crush ads at some point 😔
billionaires and their super important opinions eh? having money is a personality trait apparently
your sis needs to make a dotfile git 😎
they look at how most of us seem to be able to pay landlords and got jealous 😂
I’ll chime in with a weird take: this is a privacy community, we are united in a sense of defending our peaceful and unproblematic browsing on the internet and sending messages to friends from lunatics who seem to want everyone treated with the suspicion of highest criminal activity. the article posted describes a “privacy infringement” onto someone who not only has already broken the rule, but strongly publicized it by making people have to smell it. the perpetrators didn’t even have an expectation of privacy, so the premise is ridiculous.
I’ll say it like this: if the tv detects nicotine patches on someone’s skin, then i pick up the torches and pitchforks.
That’s precisely the SSD PCIe solution that I bought. ^^ Yeah, might have to redistribute… Thanks for letting me know about the compatibility listing, I wasn’t aware of it. I’ll check if I can get one of those second hand.
Edit: I’m slightly worried about ASUS as a mainboard supplier though because of their recent rootkit escapades…
It’s a MSI X470 GAMING PRO. Tried both upper x16 slots. The second one seems to be x8, but the first one doesn’t work either despite being x16. I have other m.2 slots but they’re already used up - however those are smaller SSDs so worst case I could move my OS to a SATA drive and populate those m.2 slots with the larger and newer SSDs that i bought! 😂
as x4/x4, but PLX would divvy it all up essentially 4x M.2 at x2/x2/x2/x2, that kinda thing. If this adapter doesn’t have it and you can’t get this to work, and you’re willing to blow another hundred bucks, that other kind of adapter would def work.
Without knowing your motherboard I’d def download the manual and ctrl+f some promising keywords such as ‘bifurcation’ or ‘PCI’ and basically hunt for anything in the manual that describes settings to enable this. Sometimes on a 3 slot board the bottom ‘chipset’ slot can be toggled to run something different than PCH, like some other controller.
I’d also try running the adapter in every possible configuration, on the most current supported PCI-E standards and a previous generation if motherboard allows, ie: adapter top slot, GPU middle slot, GPU top slot, adapter 3rd slot (if mobo has one), disable PCI-E 4.0 or enable 3.0 each time just to see if some configuration works (kinda tedious but costs 0 dollars so
Thanks for the hints. I’ll try to put it in gen 3.0 mode and see if I get more settings there, good idea!
