So, it happened AGAIN. We can blame paper launches, we can blame scalpers, we can praise AMD's efforts but the truth is it's simply not enough. MSRP, steam survey figures, you name it, it all stinks.
Don't get me wrong, I still have full faith in Lisa Su and the lads, but MASSIVE restockings are desperately needed in September. Otherwise I'm not very optimistic about the RX 9070 GRE, or it outselling the RTX 50 Supers for that matter. Not shipping like this. What do you think, /pcbg/? #RadeIN or #RadeOUT?

>Avoid extensive environmental descriptions
That was an odd one, but b/c the card repeats over and over about how "... this is just the way the world is now" the LLM follow by repeatedly added sentences to that effect as well.
There's two solutions for that.
> Tell it not to include environmentals / bandaid fix
or
> Don't repeat yourself 10X in the description / fix the root cause
The second option saves you more tokens.
TLDR if botwriter feels the need to add a sentence to manage LLM response, the first thing to do is see if something could be removed, instead.

Windows Defender is has been really good for a long time, and still tops MITRE scores. Malwarebytes is also fine, generally...

I'm not quite sure what the question is in here though. A lot of anything hands-on is just trial and error. The only you'll assure yourself it's gone is with a re-install.

>>106473779
Thanks. What about a sketchy website? What of sites that are real but try to give you viruses? For example, there's a 4chan archive site one which, if you click anywhere (say the search bar within the archive), a tab will open up, and the click won't do the action you intend for it to (activating the search bar to let you type in it), then you get one of those indian trojan sites. Is there a way to safely navigate such a site? Is that just a matter of having some kind of anti-virus or firewall? Is it easy to understand how any of that works? One thing that bothers me is my understanding of computers really is just seeing them as "magic boxes", I don't think of them as such, but as far as I'm concerned, they may as well be. The many processes that go on therein I don't understand, nor do I have even a summarized understanding or... a systematic understanding I guess. Like if you think of how these things work as a tree, the trunk is the fundamental base of it all, and then the ends of the branches would be all of the things going on on the surface. My understanding is all the way at the ends of the branches. Maybe that sounds gay but it works. I don't know at which point I'll stop feeling I'm wandering a maze, and will feel I can understand it better and properly.

It's pretty hard for browsers to fully infect your PC. Best practice is to use a condom or some sort. Ad block and a plugin to stop scripts from running like uMatrix. Set everything to max, but doing so means ALL websites will break and just display text. If a website wants to run a video, well uMatrix is blocking that script from running. After that disable uMatrix on sites you feel safe on using, like YouTube for example, or your banking institution's website etc.
Then if you encounter a site that you can't use but don't fully trust slowly start enabling some scripts on uMatrix. If something suspicious starts happening then block that script again. It's trial and error.
Just learn those two plugins and then you'll be good.

And since you're asking about viruses and how computers work in the base level I would recommend you on going to school about it. Computers are complicated and not everyone has the time to fully research what each program or line in a piece of code does by themselves.

So yeah, get into the habit of using a search engine, use ad blockers and script blockers for browsing and go to school if you want to learn what COM+ Event System service is or whatever and why it's running on your PC. You're asking for someone to explain how computers work and no one has the time to do that.

People mistake framedrops with slowdowns with frameskipping with stutters.
First console I noticed actual stutters on was the 360. Before that all I had was slowdowns. Today you have Zelda Echoes of Wisdom which, I don't know how there's people out there that can tolerate. We're talking about 30 to 60 back to 30 harsh framerate fluctuations. That's noticeable by just about fucking anyone. I have played a lot of SNES, genesis, PS1, N64 games with slowdowns. Not like this shit.

How does 4chan deal with the schizo question now that the IP counter has been removed? I'm asking this genuinely because it seems like no one has a clear answer.

A significant amount of engagement on this website comes from a small group of deranged maniacs constantly posting on cooldown every day. The moderators don't seem to have any issue with what is verifiably spam, so they let the schizos run rampant. If said schizos would just use a tripcode, they'd be indistinguishable from namefags, but they go out of their way to pretend they're multiple people when it's obviously one guy.

To add on, interacting with these schizos and trying to have a dialogue with them is pointless. None of them are interested in establishing a motive for their insane behavior and just want to ruin 4chan for everybody. Lots of small generals have their own dedicated schizos, and in some cases (like /v/) it's impossible to comfortably discuss certain topics because the schizo will inevitably barge in and begin spamming nonsense.

I can honestly say I'd be perfectly fine with 4chan being compromised by shills and bots if it meant the schizos would be dealt with. Someone paid to post here is just a useful idiot, and bots are always easy to spot. Schizos are a scourge and present a legitimate existential issue for the future of anonymous imageboards.

Hiro doesn't care. Post quality doesn't matter, it's all about passive ad income.
This is just a pet theory but I personally believe the obfuscation is to let shilling run more rampant and since most users here run adblock (or so I hope) then the best way to advertise is to spam threads and keep bumping them to fake engagement. You see this a lot with /v/ gacha threads that are often "disguised" as generic coom threads. They are the most inorganic shit but always hit bump limit thanks to gets tier posts and the like, but they are allowed to be constantly spammed despite the generals existing.
And for the projecting retards: If you want to play these games and talk about it, go ahead whatever, I don't care. I'm only using them as an example.

>>106473258
Also this, but the problem is that there are a lot of impressionable lurkers who after reading a schizo talking to themselves over and over again might end up adopting their stance. So in a way it is sort of a lose-lose situation when it comes to increasing discussion quality.
>>
>>106473965
The point of an anonymous image board is whatever the bulk of the users want it to be. There is no cosmic law that says everyone has to behave according to your ideals. If you don't like soecific threads or posts, just don't visit them. I ignore the Apple shill threads, because I don't care about Apple products. It really is that easy.
>>
>>106474088
/v/ has always had porn threads and with the declined quality of games and general state of the internet and porn addiction etc it makes sense there'd be more of it

though I wouldn't be surprised if certain gacha companies do (indirectly) market on /v/
>>
>>106474109
Yes, you are correct, I just feel like it has gotten much worse.
iirc some of them (forgot which exactly, saw screenshots in a thread) do marketing surveys for some meaningless in-game currency and they do mention 4chan in them.

OP here, yeah that's me. With a broomstick up my ass. You're probably wondering how i got here. Well, its a long story. It started in bootcamp cause the boomers told me to pull myself by the boostraps. So i booted my PC and some German guy came up on the screen with such a thick german accent I could feel the spit coming out of the screen. Something about Boot Loader and Mutexes. It filled me with furious raged I wanted to put a Boot to his face. It was too hard so i went into webdev and had to learn Bootstrap. Then i took a strapon and shoved it up my boot. Boot it wasn't long enough so i grabbed a broom.
