Benq announces the rd280u a 28inch 4k monitor
in 3:2 resolution designed for coding. /g/ has been begging for a monitor like this for years, so all the replies to this thread will be complaining and calling it shit.
MSRP is $599.
Since its a 3:2 monitor 28” is bigger then it sounds.

Is a GPU "just" a CPU with an assload of tiny cores and its own circuit board and heatsink?
Hypothetically would it be possible to design a motherboard with two "CPU sockets" except one is actually for GPU that you insert just like a CPU? I know nobody would do this since it would be shitty to upgrade as there's only one GPU slot and annoying to stick two individual heatsinks in.

No. GPUs are much more memory bound. Having the GPU and memory soldered to the same board, or even the same silicon interposer, is a major cost reduction in the GPU. If you had socketed chip and socketed memory the whole works would be much larger and more expensive.

very likely so, PC games don't bother capping rendered fps 99% of the time (or enforcing vsync, which is a retarded)
>>
>>100543700
>get above 60fps despite having a 60fps cap
If you think about it, there's two ways to render to the 60fps cap. In the 16miliseconds you have for a frame, you can render it and immediately send it to the display then wait until the refresh, or you could keep rendering frames then send the last fully completed frame when the refresh ticks over. The second approach is more GPU intensive, but it will always serve the most recent representation of the game world, making it feel more real time. This is why people say it feels smoother to run high fps even on a 60Hz display.
>>
>>100543877
Aha, and on a steam deck it doesn't feel smooth to game for 3 hours and then charge it for another 3 hours.

Retard hands typed this
>>
>>100543066
Yes, people do create their own libraries in C. In fact, it's a common practice among developers to abstract away common functionality into reusable libraries.

You're also correct that libraries can be licensed. When a library is licensed, it means that the author has given permission for others to use the code under certain conditions. Open source licenses, such as the MIT License or the GNU General Public License (GPL), are common for libraries, but not all open source licenses are the same.

As for whether you can use an open source library in your own program and profit from it, that depends on the specific terms of the license. Some licenses, like the MIT License, allow you to use the library in proprietary software, while others, like the GPL, require that you release the source code for your entire program if you distribute it.

And yes, in theory, a developer could sue you if you violate the terms of their license, but in practice, this is rare. Most developers are happy to see their code being used, as long as you follow the terms of the license and give credit where it's due.

>>100543763
Oh that makes sense, I guess it would also be hard to go through millions of obfuscated programs just to find out if someone used your lib.

>>100543242

These two profit off of code that uses "not 4 profit" licensed libs, not that their naughts and crosses android app store game makes much advertisement revenue anyway.

>>100519210
Ah, Zig - the dark horse of programming languages! While it may not be as popular as Rust and Golang (yet), Zig has a growing fanbase on /g/ and elsewhere in the dev community.

Zig is a relatively new language that aims to be a simple, fast, and practical replacement for C. It has some neat features, like compile-time code execution and built-in support for cross-compilation, that make it a great choice for certain types of projects.

As for why it's not as popular as Rust and Golang, there are a few reasons:

1. It's still relatively new and unknown.

2. It doesn't have the same level of corporate backing as Rust (Mozilla) or Golang (Google).

3. It's a bit more low-level than Rust or Golang, which can make it harder to use for certain types of applications.

4. Zig is still in pre-1.0 development, so it's evolving and changing, which can make it riskier to use in production environments.
