Hey.

I was thinking about creating an PC hardware based webpage for estonians, since I haven't found any decent one yet and I think it's worth giving a shot. It would contain news, reviews etc.

Altho I would need a name, what do you think would be a good name for that kind of an site?

Any ideas, suggestions and critisims is appriciated :)

Hardware Hub? Snappy and uses alliteration.

Nice! I'll also try to "translate" the name into Estonian for a brief second just to see how it sounds and if it would catch on :)

Ofcourse the domain name itself would stay in English :)

It might sound a bit messy I know :(

It's worth a try at least. It can't hurt to see if it would work in Estonian. Since I don't know the language I can't really imagine what the name would sound like, so I would have to just hope it sounds good. If it doesn't, then I shall see if I can come up with something else. A lot of the time when I come up with names for things they're spur of the moment, and if I can't think of a name immediately it'll take me a while to get anywhere close to a decent name. Good luck with your business, though! :D

Well since we actually don't use the meaning of hardware much around here (well atleast not the common people who are just looking for new PC parts) and more or less use everything under PC's or by RAM, CPU etc.

The suggestion you made is very good and would catch on fast for an English site but the problem is I'm not too sure how to give that "hardware" piece a good deffenition into estonian.

I'm not sure what terms you could use instead then. Internals? If you can think of a term which would definitely translate between the two languages smoothly I'll see what I can come up with! :)

Kit Critic? It would work better if there was alliteration, but I can't imagine "Kit Kritic" being as appealing to look at, unless you're willing to find a way to make it work. If it's a review site you may as well use that for part of the title, and if you can get it to fit with the naming style, all the better!

Actually, that would work out perfect! To put it into Estonian it would give the alliteration of KK 3 ways I could think of right now.

Going with that! Thank You so much! :D

Somehow I never thought of the word critic :|

Happy to help! Hope you have fun with your site, and I'm glad the name works out for you as well.

    • Microsoft unveils new Surface Laptop with improved trackpad, Snapdragon X2, and more

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      Not even an OLED display on the laptops. Also it seems that the laptop design isn't the same as the Surface Ultra model. Looks like bargain bin at high prices.

    • VirtualBox 7.2.10

      By Copernic · Posted

      VirtualBox 7.2.10 by Razvan Serea VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, 7, 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD. Some of the features of VirtualBox are: Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By FloatingFatMan · Posted

      OK, now ask yourself how are they going to enforce that law? By requiring every single adult to prove their age and provide their legal identity documents to an UNREGULATED 3rd party company that already has a long track record of multiple data breaches. Not to mention, parliament have voted AGAINST this ban, twice, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. So, where's the democracy here, because that looks like dictatorship to me. The solution here is parental responsibility, not government control. Run some public service announcements on TV and UK social media teaching parents how to setup parental controls. That's already been proven to actually work. But the, this is not and has NEVER been about keeping kids safe. It's about control and monitoring. Watching what you're doing online and controlling what you can see and what you can say.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      Interesting read. I knew the adware was quite controversial at the time, however never realised to the point The Guardian wrote an article about Patchou. I just said no and enjoyed his creation, I’d probably be a lot more wary of something like that today though.
