SMT doesn't really matter on modern CPUs as much as it did in the i7-3770K days. It's hard to predict how it will perform but it's pretty much guaranteed that Steam Machine is going to have better single core performance and won't be too far off in multi-threaded tasks. I'm posting from a PC with 5950X which is also 2 generations behind my laptop's AI 9 HX PRO 370 and despite having 12 cores instead of 16, it's not dramatically slower.

>>107825956
It matters when games now use up to 32 threads.

>>107825978
It matters when there's a benchmark that proves it. Just a few years ago going from 5800X to 5950X made absolutely no sense for gaming and as far as I know people haven't started recommending 2 CCD chips for that purpose yet. Besides, if something is going to tank performance on the cube and make PS5 look good by comparison, it's going to be that mid GPU.

But Steam has more games than PlayStation so hardware is not the whole story anyway.

>>107825596
prior to the normalisation of the 90 series, the 80 equivalent were the enthusiast choice cards; the sli setups were dimishing returns things for retards.
that diminishing return retardo option simply doesn't exist now.
the gap between the 80 and the 90 cards is very real and feels generational in nature.
yes you can run your games on your 70 and 80 cards, but the performance difference b/w those and the 90s is large enough that you're practically being served bargain bin cards at flagship prices.

As somebody who owned Titan 1 and now uses Titan 2:
1. Fucking MediaTek.
2. Shitty camera.
3. BlackBerry-esque keyboard scrolling does not really work except for a few select apps. I mean, it works, but you will get ghost taps and weird scrolling issues.
4. Stock software keyboard sucks, good keyboards from T1 don't work on T2. I had to patch ASK manually do get something that works well.
5. The second screen is a useless gimmick.

Still better than no HW keyboard though.

It's a stand alone phone. They just fucked up their marketing. What do you expect from a company whose CEO is Adrian Li Mow Ching who ran F(X)tec that made the colossal broken promises failure that was the F(X)tec Pro 1X.

>>107825855
>Adrian Li Mow Ching who ran F(X)tec
It's really the same guy?
Holy fuck Fxtec was a massive disappointment. I have my original Pro1 sitting on a shelf and it really is a shame that for as amazing as the hardware was, the company did made less than zero effort to actually support it. I still don't understand why they decided to abandon the original and do the 1X.
With that in mind, the Clicks Communicator is dead on arrival to me. Their little attachable keyboard accessory is more interesting than their phone, because there's no way in hell they'll support it for more than a year.

Pulseaudio was better than using only ALSA. But ever since pipewire was released I don't see any reason to stick to pulseaudio, other than if you are using a 5 year old stable distro, without it in the repos.

Pipewire has it's own protocol, and supports both pulseaudio and jack sources. One feature I feature I can't live without is the way you can just connect audio inputs and outputs with programs like qjackctl.

Who cares about a fucking init system, like come on. I just use the easiest linux distro (Fedora) to watch anime, make stuff, do my job and run my gaymes inside a linux vm. I couldn't care less if Fedora used systemd, SysVinit, s6 etc.
>insert the erotic games 2ch post dot jpeg

>>107825214
i remember pulseaudio having issues. pipewire for me has had none.

also linux had issues liek fuckin crazy before systemd. anti systemd posters are the arch linux fatso meme. i dont want to spend tens of hours a week configuring my distro i just want the shit to work

neets don't like it when things actually work and don't need manual tinkering because now they're lost and don't know what to do

>>107817360
It works but it does too much. If systemd was just an init system + service manager, I'd probably use it. It's admittedly pretty good at that. But overall systemd is a big suite of software haphazardly thrown together in the same git repo for questionable reasons. Lots of components should really be totally separate programs and not tightly within the systemd monolith (inb4 someone says it has a gazillion binaries so of course it's modular).

You can be all cynical and bitter you want but no mutt I live in a country where our antitrust laws haven't yet been effictively erased by decades of anti-consumer lobbying, public outcry often results in tangible outcomes not just aggresive refusal from my government like in the US

I'd pay for a streaming service if it could bring me the same quality as what I'm torrenting, which is high bitrate high resolution shows. I don't particularly enjoy having to seed shit to inflate my ratio so I don't get kicked out of platform.

Not sure who will be the obvious woman to move on to. Margaret Hamilton has very dubious accomplishments that don't stand up to scrutiny, so she's out. Carol Shaw's accomplishment is one video game. From there, things become even more mundane. Maybe some Indian woman whose "accomplishments" can't be verified?

Apparently bitshifting a char by 8 bits is UB so now I have to add special case to check if argument is 0.
Thanks C standard committee. Bitshifting a byte by 8 should be 0 not UB, makes perfect sense in my head.

Yes and historically companies have been OBEJCTIVLY horrible to respond when products are defective, Something has to be done just to make these vendors actually replace shit and not weasel their way out of it. Especially as we see defects that outright kill systems.

Back in 1994 I saw one of these sons of bitches in a national TV studio where I was doing an internship. It was a huge deal for me as this was in bumfuck Eastern Europe a little while after my country kicked out the commie retards. Everyone and everything was poor as fuck so seeing one of these made my eyes water and made me feel like we're all gonna make it. The experience was surreal. The IT guys let me see a couple of demos, seeing IRIX do its thing live was the experience that single-handedly absolutely cemented my life's trajectory in dealing with IT, programming, sysadmin stuff. Fuck I'm old. Fuck I miss IRIX. Too bad the only thing truly close to what IRIX was back then is MacOS.

>>107824686
what am I looking at here?

>>107824719
A Silicon Graphics Indigo. They were true beasts in their time. They ran IRIX which was a SysV UNIX variant. They specialised in graphics and pioneered many technologies like IRIS GL which later became OpenGL. They were immensely expensive, which is why the experience was so surreal to me.

>>107824686
>Too bad the only thing truly close to what IRIX was back then is MacOS.
Have you ever looked at Haiku? I've always thought it seemed quite similar. macOS doesn't really have much in common with IRIX aside from being a commercial Unix(-like).

>>107825731
I think they’re quite similar both functional, being proprietary Unix that is tightly coupled and suited for the hardware it runs in, but also philosophically with aesthetic coherence and the uses it’s made for. They’re both great at 3D art, scientific visualisation, development, media production etc. at least that’s my reasoning. That said irix was way more open and definitely assumed experienced admins instead of dumdum influencers and niggers which is why I think it’s a shame Mac is the only premium Unix available.

>the CRT TV's were as large as it was feasible to make.
No shit, but the size was small anyways
Most people had 13-20 inch CRTs and didn't care, especially since the bigger CRTs were way too heavy

You're wrong about the rest
Most people just like today didn't care, they bought the cheapest thing they could find to watch shit on it
Sure they prioritized the known brands but their concern was getting a well built TV that will last them, it wasn't about video quality

Nowadays small TVs are pretty much non-existent, and the content is designed around these behemoths
So normal people now watch stuff on their smartphones, and TVs are mostly bought by retarded enthusiasts

Don't be delusional, it was an entirely different time back in the day

>>107825943
Honestly 13 inch is pretty for your eyes.

19-21 inch is good enough for a single person, 27-32 for 2-3 i guess

I say that while having both type, and i can guarantee you that watching a movie on a smaller screen that flicker will give you headache meanwhile you are pain/eye strain free on an OLED ...

>>107825939
CRT motion is dependent on the phosphor persistence TV
You can find consumer CRT TVs with 1ms persistence and also ones with 5ms persistence(roughly 200fps equivalent motion)

Most PC CRT monitors from late 90s were 1ms(to combat burnin)

Flicker was worse in lower refresh rates depending on how short the persistence was, so it was a trade-off between better motion and less flicker. But the public at large never was in the know about these things back then.

>>107826003
>and i can guarantee you that watching a movie on a smaller screen that flicker will give you headache
Nah, never was a problem
I watched movies on a 50hz PAL 20 inch CRT when I was a kid
When we used to see those blacks bars we used to say ''it's kino time''

Most people watched at a reasonable difference
But many TV sets had slower phosphors(for example many NTSC tvs had 4ms phosphor and PAL TVs had 5ms phosphor) so the flicker wasn't that bad on those

What I was getting at was there was a time when TV shows were filmed with standard 13-20 inch 4:3 CRTs in mind
That was a simple comfy experience which is now dead and unfortunately never coming back for those of us who have fond memories of those days

Those days were over when you could no longer read the text on Dead Rising on CRTs because they made the text too small
