"do a little research" - you do realize that your post would have had just the same educational value but not made you come across as a jerk if you had just left off that first sentence?

No RGB is a selling point for me. My case is a big black box and the only light on it shows if it is on or off as these things should be.

I did want to get a new cpu but my current one isn't compatible with 11 so I think I'll leave it a bit.

Why would they give a warning? The result will be increased security at more valuable targets.

Most likely some bored kid who doesn't have any geo-political motivation.

Thanks, but unfortunately some of the information there is wrong or misleading. For example, what they call a "GPS module" is actually just an active antenna, basically a GNSS antenna with a built in LNA.

The bigger issue is that there are a lot of modules that we don't know the contents of. For example, the NimbeLink Skywire LTE modem contains a Sierra Wireless modem, which itself is made from parts from another company. Maybe Chinese, maybe not. Incidentally, the GNSS receiver is likely in there too. Combined cellular, WiFi, Bluetooth, and GNSS modules are quite common.

There doesn't need to be a standard, they can just use USB vendor defined endpoints, or a USB HID vendor defined report. Then the standard WinUSB and HID APIs work, and no driver is required. Plug it in, Windows recognizes it and attaches the appropriate generic USB driver, and the RGB control software sends whatever data is likes.

Lots of USB devices use RGB, such a mice and keyboards. For the RGB the early implementations were using microcontrollers, which often have USB built in.

If you would stop being such a dumb mother fucker and stop voting for pedophiles because trans girls make you feel icky and give you a boner at the same time then we could fix all this shit.

There is absolutely no reason why everything can't be fine but guys like you are so fucking stupid you think you're part of the in group and that when the shit hits the fan Trump has your back. He hates you. You disgust him. When you showed up on January 6th to make him King he was pissed off how low class and how much of a bunch of losers you are.

The point of my rant which is way the fuck over your head is that if assholes like you would get out of the way people like me who aren't idiots could fix all this shit in a couple of decades tops. No poverty no war no starvation no hungry kids and the only thing we have to trade for it is you would have to be nice to trans girls and blacks or whatever group you don't like and you wouldn't be able to worship Elon Musk and pretend he actually did anything useful instead of just stealing all my taxpayer money and my 401k.

The real problem here is you have extremely low self esteem and you take that out on the rest of us. It's amazing that a bunch of losers with low self-esteem or basically going to end the human race for the stupidest fucking way possible in the stupidest timeline possible.

Date rape drugs.

How to forged online credentials.

Mail order chemicals for making explosives and drugs.

How online fraud works (using forged credentials, see above).

Hacking school databases to alter grades.

Hacking home security systems for both inside and external cameras.

Automatic weapons.

How to depose of evidence, including dead bodies.

Easy to make and hard to detect poisons.

Live what you preach. Commit suicide when you hit sixty five, because you will suck so bad by then you will pollute everything.

Or you could do the rest of us a favor and off yourself now, you whiny ass.

It was political correctness when I was a lad, then it was sjw and now it's woke. I think woke is running its course and being replaced by dei. But there is room enough in the right wing's head for both since God knows there's nothing else in there.

What's going to be fun is in 2032 when Trump's going into his fourth term and all these old fucking farts who sold us out so they could freak out about trans girls in sports and drag queens reading books lose $500 a month of social security money and become homeless.

I know they will just blame Joe Biden but at this point I'm not waiting for them to wake up anymore I just want them to fuck off. The problem is they didn't die fast enough they were able to destroy our democracy. A couple of drugs basically kept old people alive for too long and they're mean and they're nasty because even though they're alive they aren't any smarter if anything they're dumber because of age-related cognitive decline and as you get old you hurt a lot so you get angry and frustrated and you want to take your frustrations out on the people you see the most which is for these baby boomer trash usually some minority or another who had nothing to do with their current predicaments.

Basically what I'm saying is old people suck. We know old people suck. Traditionally not a lot of people made it to the point where they were old enough to suck that much. But now that we're keeping these fuckers alive this long they can really really fuck up everything with their incredible stupidity. I mean you're dealing with people who write it a fourth grade level when they were at their peak and now they've had decades of age related cognitive decline and they're still out there and mother fucking they vote.

Initially I thought it was just the older Gen x that doomed us but I gather that when the numbers were actually fully tallied about 70% of baby boomers voted for Trump. And the Reagan democrats can fuck right off. The I got mine fuck you crowd they are just nicer about it.

Not that the American left is making me terribly happy. They're so fucking useless. I mean I guess being useless is better than doing damage but still...

The best solution would have been for hardware vendors to stop using SMBUS and switch to USB. No driver needed.

Meh, I suppose. IMO it's not worth optimizing in a car that's able to remember settings associated with a driver. In "dumb" cars, if the regular drivers are different sizes (I'm 8 inches taller than my wife) you need to be able to quickly and easily adjust the mirror positions, because you have to do it a lot. In my Tesla, I mostly find it annoying that the main rear-view mirror doesn't automatically adjust, requiring me to reach up and move it by hand. I think the best fix for that, though, is to replace it with a screen fed from a rear-view camera.

Again, this mostly seems moot with per-driver, automatically-applied settings. I have the air flow adjusted to my liking and never touch it. I never manually adjust fan speed, either, only the thermostat... and that I do by long-pressing the left thumb wheel then scrolling up or down. I have to long-press because I like the media controls to be the "primary" use of that wheel.

I think this claim is overrated, at least for me. I end up having to look quite a bit. Obviously once I've found the control I could look back at the road while I adjust it... but I often don't do that in vehicles with manual controls, like my truck. Again, I prefer to adjust the climate control by changing the thermostat rather than playing with temperature or fan volume by "feel", and I have to see the temperature display which is in the center console. I know what temperatures I prefer, though, so I look move my hand to the control, rotate it until it shows the temp I want, then return my attention to the road.

Similarly with the sound system. I know what volume I prefer and adjust until the display shows that level. On the rare occasion I listen to the radio I don't use the tuning knob, I use the "scan" button, which requires looking while I hit the button, then listening until the right station comes on, then looking while I hit the button again to stop the scan.

Different strokes, I guess. I quite like Tesla's system. I did prefer having a stalk for the turn signals rather than the buttons on the steering wheel. My wife likes the buttons... which is interesting because she prefers to drive manually a lot more than I do, so it may be that I just haven't given them a chance. She says she likes that she can signal without having to take her hand off the wheel. I use FSD pretty much all the time except when I'm driving for fun, which I basically never do in environments where I have to use turn signals.

Ay, there's the rub. They can put up data centers quickly. Electrical capacity expansion takes time.

They want the electricity now, not "when the electrical utilities get to it."
