Can someone make the case using logical arguments on why drexlspivey is any better or worse than no drexlspivey? Why is an ecosystem in equilibrium with drexlspivey better than one without drexlspivey?

Personally - gaming. Never liked vsync

Ah, but do they use cellular networks, which I presume is the standard, or some other technology?

Well, yeah. It wouldn't have worked if it had been a proper shooter. Imagine playing Doom Eternal in VR. It's going to suck.

I almost broke my TV with Alex and that is a slow, slow game.

So, that's why my mouse feels totally fine on macOS. Gaming peripherals the win

You seem to have forgotten where AMD was 10 years ago. Company was circling the drain but they should have invested heavily in the software stack for hardware they could barely afford to design? Brilliant strategy. Now's the time to invest because they finally have the resources. The ai train is not going anywhere anytime soon

You'll find in next week's episode

Reading comprehension. SanDisk is not Seagate

Good time as any to remind folks of the good old rtx space invaders [0]

It was only part of what made them fast and they should absolutely have told their clients what the price for that performance increase was. Choice is fine but it has to be a an informed one.

I fail to see how Intel deserves any benefit of the doubt after the speculative execution fiasco they engineered to make their CPUs faster.

Why do people conveniently forget even fairly recent history is beyond me.

More scared than excited but yeah, definitely excited.

As a non game developer, though, I am wondering if migrating existing renderers would allow me to create UIs, or parts of them, using graphics that is not just html+CSS without the massive overhead that we currently have. I mean, I can draw the frames just fine but these extra cycles suck power and produce heat

Isn't dx12 a lower level API? Not nearly as accessible as dx/opengl. I guess not everyone in the game industry has the ability to just switch because codebases are messy, "things are already working", and there not being much to gain but performance.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, for example, would often crash on me under dx12, until I switched to dx11. Not everyone is id Software or Epic.

But you don't have rtx, peasant!

Seriously though, it's been a while since I've had serious issues with AMD cards on Linux. I was very annoyed with the state of my rx5700 when it first launched back in 2019. We've come a long way

Wow, is this what the Nvidia Linux experience is like these days? Is it even worth it anymore?

Absolutely. It's not perfect but it sure beats the debugging nodejs with vscode experience a fellow developer was pushing. I would take the console over this hell.

Haha, what? At least half the content here is blatant self promotion. Funny how you jump on the little guy

I almost have like a kilo of dry cat food with me. The bird feeder attracts pigeond and they often shit all over the place.

I have noticed that corvids also like cat food. We have so many and they compete with each other.

RAM is RAM. Saying yours is built with 50% more magic dust is always going to result in flamewars, sadly.

They say there are no bad products, just bad price points.

Good, good. I have two gaming desktops and don't need it. What I need is something like the Legion Go. Not for gaming, mind you. Reading. A laptop is too big, a phone too small. I think it hits the spot real nice and people managed to get Linux working on it right away, which was to be expected. I wonder how much it weighs without the joypads

I liked the other one better- "Microsoft won’t let you close OneDrive on Windows until you explain yourself"

Very nice. I was told about this pattern when I was working on a web RTS. I was explained to me that many of the web "games" at the time would offer you virtual currency/gems/whatever when you try to leave.

I find it all very classy. I really should force my wife off windows. Her next laptop is going to run Linux no matter what. Even a Mac would be an improvement but sane configurations start at like 2000 euro.

I am old and don't get upset. Some of the best games over the last few years are Boomer Shooters. My favourite do far is Turbo Overkill - double jump and crazy air control right from the start. Plays better than Doom

I just tested this and you are right. Thanks

Honestly, that's what you get for not buying a cheap pc that can be hooked to any screen. It's easier, cheaper, and you don't have to deal with "apps".

I am continuously amazed HTPCs are losing ground to commercial setups that are objectively worse by any conceivable metric. No, dealing with "apps" is not simpler.

Frankly, they should have pulled the plug years ago. The game has been dead for years. I try to watch every QPL grand final and it has been a borefest. Most exciting moment was the million dollar tournament. Newcomer beating Vo0 in spectacular manner.

StarCraft, which MS also owns these days, at least had traction for about a decade. Quake Champions was a bad game and it failed immediately. Maybe NS could finance proper Quake and StarCraft games with their infinite cash

Johnny GPTeptonic, apart from being hard to vocalise, would suggest something else entirely.

~100% of games don't fit into the L1 cache of a CPU.

It's the weekend, so I am just gonna say that a Ryzen 7800x3d has 512KB of L1 cache. Plenty of games would fit. Not even talking about those tiny games that generate everything.

Guys on high horses are not funny

Can you point me to the part confirming your claim? If anything, it's confirming mine that they both are stuck at 60 Hz.

You're right. Understanding how a WW3 would affect investors is of utmost importance. Who cares about death, destruction, radiation and stuff. The most important thing is protecting the investments.

A lot of sociopaths on this site.
