I am flying to Tokyo tomorrow and want to try my luck with finding a gpu in akihabara, either new or used. Anyone tried this or know anything about it? Which stores to try? Is it futile?

It's really not... I'm going Threadripper on my next build for more flexibility (cores, PCIE lanes, etc). Consumer hardware has plateaued and they're really not gonna give us more than a few little speedups going forward.

If you just browse and do your homework my PC would be more than enough, but when it comes to total compute it's falling behind fast... hell, even my high-end 4090 feels like the minimum spec these days with new games running like ass without DLSS maxed out (~240p to 4K).

The truer point is that we have pretty good games that run on mid tier hardware from current year

most games arent some path tracing only showcases of future tech, and if they're visually mediocre and arent made on unreal 5 they run at 60fps at 1440p on kinda shit hardware using dlss

microsoft has been retiring many outdated components and one of those components was exploited by outdated offline activation method.
did microsoft retire it only because of activation exploit? nobody knows but most likely not.
>>
>>107850957
>send the ID of the computer plus its current installed edition to MS's activation servers and gets them to add the ID to the activation server no strings attached
Yeah but I'm talking about a fresh laptop here, no prior activations. So isn't it quite obvious that microsoft could just start blocking new registrations on their servers? Up until this point I've assumed they simply don't care and wouldn't want to cause angry hordes by blocking it.
>>
>>107850988
It doesn't matter if the laptop is fresh or not, it'll activate fine all the same.
>>
>>107851013
It won't if microsoft changes their servers and decides to block unauthorized hardware ID activations.

>>107851026
I mean if you could always just use the TSforge method instead if you wanted to.

I wonder if that explains the mass exodus of administrative staff from Apple.
I would honestly prefer Siri to just stay dumb desu. Google is inevitably going to try and get more data out of people's phones and I don't really believe anything Apple will say about their privacy implementations.
>>
>>107849663
What I don't understand is how Apple fell behind like this. Apple was the one who came out with Siri which everyone at the time look at as something that would eventually progress into what we have now with conversational AI and agentic AI. Then they just did next to nothing with it, allowed Google to come in and surpass it with Google Assistant, allowed Bixby to even show some usefulness in comparison and now Siri is going to be powered by the Gemini models because they dropped the ball that hard. Was Steve Jobs really that much better than Tim Cook at that when he passed basically all progress and vision at Apple stopped and they just focused on maximizing their existing lineups?

Light themes are objectively superior to dark themes, why do so many people still choose dark?
106 replies and 19 images omitted. Click here to view.
>>
Didn't your mom tell you to not read in the dark? That's essentially what you are doing with dark theme. If you are going to unnaturally stare at screens from close distance, at least attempt to do it in an environment with natural level of lighting.

Some study found said that the lack of natural light exposure is one of the potential causes nearsightedness and eye diseases, could be related to the brightness (sun light is very bright), but also the lack of infrared frequencies in led lighting.

Likely the most optimal setup health-wise would be using a 65" tv at a distance, with light theme, in a well-lit room and add some infrared heat lamps to balance out the blue light.

Helix, but I am pretty sure any text editor with syntax highlighting is capable of a similar theme. But it has to be made custom for this approach. This is due to the typical light themes that have colored text adjusts the contrast of the colors for white. When highlighting the background you need to use very light colors to contrast well with black instead. I think It works exceptionally well for LaTeX since I just want to highlight the structure of the markup. Here is another similar theme that I use for Zig.
>>
>>107850223
There is nothing natural about the light from light themes.
It's way too blue and there absolutely bit enough orange and red for your eyes to bit strain unnecessarily.
If you use f.lux or similar and force it to night time constantly then it might be better than dark theme for your eyes.
>>
>>107837209
It's the opposite you tard, brown eyes are better at handling bright light than light eyes
>>
>>107850776
Well, I would argue it's slightly more natural compared to having your retinas lasered with the same blue light when they are adapted to a brightness level of a dark cave, which makes them operate on heightened sensitivity.
