I've never understood the hatred for tripcodes. Is it just the people behind them or the tripcodes themselves? The former makes a lot more sense.

>SSDs are cheaper than HDDs
wew
>SSDs are more reliable than HDDs
Depends on the application. SSDs are more resistant to physical shock while running, but they have a hard limit on lifespan, unlike HDDs, and they are more likely to fail suddenly. If all SSDs used SLC, they would be more reliable than HDDs, but very few do. The massive increase in cost per GB means that HDD storage is overall more reliable as you can make 10 copies for each copy on an SSD.
>LCDs are more reliable than CRTs
Depends on the specific models, but this is generally not the case. Admittedly, LCDs are easier to repair if something does go wrong, but few people ever repair their monitors.
>>52476643
BIG BLACK LASER DISK
LITTLE WHITE DVD
>>52476523
>>52476303
The joke, I assume, is that all of those are better.
CD-DA has a higher fidelity than any vinyl can ever have.
USB is safely hot-pluggable, incredibly versatile and an absolute godsend: the only time I'd ever want PS/2 back is for easier N-key rollover, but that can be done fine over USB too with the correct handling. (Type-C is a better connector.)
LaserDiscs are of kind of reasonable quality, but big, unwieldy and incredibly expensive. But they're not the predecessor of DVD: Video-CD was, and that was an absolute piece of shit.
CRT versus LCD is more nuanced: but no CRTs would ever have been able to produce the high resolutions of today's best LCDs, or the sharpness, they use a ton more power, Rec.2020 or dynamic refresh would be impossible, and they flicker. You probably forgot just how flickery they are because it's been so many years since you used one, but believe me, eye-strain was a thing.
Except for bulk storage - and the drive you linked is not suitable for that, especially being a notorious crashy piece of shit with a spin-down problem - modern SSDs quite simply obsolete spinning rust completely. They are orders of magnitude faster at seeking, faster even at sequential reads and writes, use less power, and are more reliable: and the price is still coming down, to the degree that they have replaced hard disks for system disks in just about any modern PC build worth a damn.

You miss the point of that style of depiction. It's done intentionally to both make fun of an opponent and convey some message without taking itself too seriously.

TL:DR; the silly exaggeration is intentional and for humorous effect.

>>52479534
For fucks sake, unless your identity is relevant to the thread, there is no excuse to use a tripcode. I do not for the life of me understand how this is so hard to get.
>>52479899
Of course, no one likes attention whoring celebritrips. I think that >>52479534 is trying to point that there are some people who go overboard with anti-trip hostility, to the point of being more disruptive to the board experience than a tripfag alone would be.

>>52476303
Because they're cheaper to mass produce, and often have benefits other than what is prized by the retro enthusiast. For instance we now have sub $1000 40" monitors at 3840x2160 resolution something that never would have been possible with a CRT.

A is whatever you want your display name to be. It'll appear exactly as typed.
B is basically your password; what secures the the trip and makes it yours truly in order to prevent spoofing and impersonation by other anons, this is why whatever you type here gets hashed and output as some other seemingly nonsensical character sequence. There exist tripcode generating software which determine what the appropriate input text should be for some desirable output triphash, such as the one im using in this post which contains 'GNU'.
But please don't use these things just so your can forge yourself a chan personality. That kind of irritating attention whoring is frowned upon

>>52480764
>More bait, laser disc was literally never popular and DVD is far superior.
the only reason people bring it up is because
a. until DVD came about it was the best you could get quality-wise
and b. it stored analog (composite) video, and we all know what people think of analog storage mediums
>>52479534
>this is what tripfags actually believe
The only objective downgrade that the world went along with was the transition from audio CDs to MP3s or other lossy codecs.

>>52481042

if that's true then why should one care?
>>52481024
Yeah, and all those pictures he posted (not to mention that he finally got doxed) certainly show that he exists. It's been almost 6 years since he last appeared so maybe the doxxing either scarfed him off or into being anon.

>>52481203
That depends entirely on the missing bolts.
>>52481006
One thing I've learned here is that people here HATE those kind of forums. The whole appeal of the site is to not circlejerk over post-counts, seeing some 'high ranking member' type "lol idk" in a help thread, having to make an account just to download only to get some broken link, and worst of all
>I'll pm you the fix ;)
>>52476303
I'll give you SSD for the moment. However, that is going to change once good quality 1 TB SSD drives hit 200 or below.
Also, I don't know why people love CRT that much. The only thing it had over LCD was less input lag and that has been remedied over the last few years on flat panels.
>>52481311
This. The lack of forum credentialism is the one thing that makes 4chan superior to a lot of other internet forums.
>>52481294
It depends entirely on what bitrate the MP3 is compressed at.
>>52481355
This is true. 320kbps MP3s can't be distinguished from lossless files by humans.
>>52481389
But that's hardly the norm for online distribution.
Fuck, when iTunes launched they were distributing 128kbit AAC and charged more for 192kbit when they introduced it.
>>52480764
>LCD being better than CRT in any way except weight

Hi there!
You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

USB input devices require the cpu to poll them, where ps/2 created hardware interrupts. This is commonly thought of as the better way to do this because it doesn't use cpu cycles for something you don't have to.

Tripfags have a very short, finite purpose: to identify themselves.
It's meant for threads where it's absolutely necessary to have an identity, such as a general or The Falcon when he posts his logical increment charts. However, tripcodes are never meant as an alternative to registration as they are easy to crack and not at all in the spirit of the site.
