No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

H is for High Performance, U is for Ultra-Low power usage. So if you want something for gaming choose an H if you want to have hours of battery life choose a U. Pretty simple and easy to st a glance see if s processor is what you're looking for.
The 7 is not repeated on Ryzen 7 9700X, otherwise you wouldn't have stuff like the Ryzen 5 1600X. The first 7 (or the 5 in my other example) is the segment, i.e. towards which market it's directed, Ryzen 3 are entry levels that you should consider for your grandma, Ryzen 9 are high power CPUs. Then the first number of the 4 digits is the generation, the second one is the how it stacks up to others in it's series, the third and fourth are extra differentiation if needed, then there's some letters for feature flags. So for example your Ryzen 7 9700X is a high-end 9th generation high clock/performance CPU, just by that name alone I can guess that it outperforms a Ryzen 7 9500X and possibly matches a Ryzen 9 7700X. If you learn to read those it makes it very easy to figure out if an upgrade is worth it just by the model number.
USB naming convention is a mess, I'm not touching that.
Also not sure about the pro, none of my phone's ever were pro or even had a pro version so not sure.
Sony is a bit weird, but WH-1000XM5 is a Wireless Headband (WH) 1000X is the model M5 is the generation, so those are newer than WH-1000XM4, and the next iteration of them will be called WH-1000XM6. The N is as you guessed noise canceling, the 1000X are top of the line so they have it too, no need to advertise it. I don't know much about other products of them, but they do seem weird.
Monitor names can be very helpful, for example Dell uses [Series][Diagonal][Year][Ratio or Resolution][Features] so just by looking at a short code, for example I'm not even sure this monitor exists but a U3224QWC is an ultrawide QHD 32 inches IPS with anti-glare monitor released in 2024 with a USB-C input.
