Eugenics in a game where it’s been decided in universe that the animals “just like fighting” and that “it’s fun for them!” Is not surprising lol.

It’s important to be said that you have to be very careful when playing a satire character, because if you’re not you will just become the satire character. Larry the Cable Guy is not even from the south. If you’re doing something ironically or you like something ironically you have to make sure that it’s something that you’re okay with doing unironically or that you really take care to separate yourself from that thing in certain ways otherwise you will start to believe, like, and/or do those things unironically

It’s a subversion of expectations because these posts are often about a time in your life where you wouldn’t have a care in the world, so they end with “it’s 1999 and you’re 12” and instead it’s saying “you can still enjoy those things, take some time to be happy”

fair point lol

Oh boy can’t wait to have cups that burn a hole right through their coolers

I’d really love it if we’d just have a generation or two where they focused on making cpus more efficient and less hot rather than ramping power every generation , same with gpus

Yes the second thing about cranking power and cores is what I’m talking about.

Also, as far as gpus, the 2000 series was ridiculously power hungry at the time, and it looks downright reasonable now. It’s like the Overton window of power consumption lol.

As for as the 2080 goes, like I said, it was big FOR THE TIME, and power hungry FOR THE TIME. It’s still reasonable especially for today’s standards

As for as the last two gens, 3000 and 4000 series, they are known to draw more than their rated power requirements, which, for their min recommended psu wattage, 3080 was 50 watts more than the 2080 (750w), and 4080 was 100 w more than that (850w)

To add to that, both of these gens of cards, when doing graphics intensive things like gaming, can overdraw power and have been known to cause hard shutdowns in pcs with PSUs that are even slightly higher rated than their min rec. Before these last two gens you could get away with a slightly lower than rated wattage PSU and sacrifice a little performance but that is definitely no longer the case.

And sure, the performance to watts used is better in the 3080, but they also run 10+ degrees hotter and the 4000 series even moreso.

I just hope the 5000 series goes the way of power consumption refinement rather than smashing more chips onto a board or vram fuckery like with the 4060, like I’d be happy with similar performance on the 5000 series if it was less power hungry

That’s because Nvidia still has the leg up on rtx, but that doesn’t mean Nvidia shouldn’t be thinking about it. I’m not talking about what the market directs them to do, I’m talking about what I hate personally

Yeah I’m talking about Nvidia and Intel here, but tbh ryzen 4000 cpus run pretty hot, but they also optimized ryzen quite a bit before they changed to this new chip set, which makes sense to me. Seems like Nvidia and Intel are worried about what looks good power wise on paper rather than optimization sometimes.

Well, Sennheiser was nice while it lasted, rest in peace

YES. I’VE BEEN WAITING SO LONG

GOD YES

I used hamachi because no one aside from me in my group of friends knew how to port forward, but it didn’t work on my network and it took me 4 years to figure out it was because at&t has it’s own network on it’s dialup modems by default.

They still do that to this day with their fiber modem/routers! I hate it! And even if you do passthrough to have your own up for only your router, your ping is still never below 23ms because there’s two stop points in the chain, that and at&t’s dns resolution is ass.

Damn internet oligopolies.

I think I’d have to change it in their modem but I’m not 100% sure, I remember having troubles the last time I tried this

A few stars recently have died in their sixties from cancer, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was cancer unfortunately, but I of course have no idea myself.

We are reaching the limits of render technology with our current architectures. You’ll find that most established practices for computer hardware/software/firmware started as a “cheat” or weird innovation that began with using something in an ass backwards way. Reducing the amount of data a GPU needs to render is a good way to get more out of old and new hardware. It’s not perfected yet but the future of these features is very promising.
