>>107629857It kinda does become meaningless for contrast ratios beyond a certain point. As it inversely describes minimum brightness, a halving of minimum brightness equates to a doubling of contrast ratio. At some point, minimum brightness is so low that any additional halving results in an imperceptible change in the actual image whatsoever but an exponentially increasing number on the box.
>>107630710Literally why I upgraded to 11 from 10, when I bought my OLED. Same shit Windows wise and looks, feels and works exactly like 10 after a few minor configuration edits, but at least the HDR support is miles better.
>>107630103It's not "throw away your perfectly good existing TV or Phone" worth it but it is "you should consider HDR capabilities in your next purchase" worth it.
>>107631029>hop on the hdr bandwagon>most shit looks awful>get told you're a jeet who can't configure your setup properlyI'll stick to cheap plug and play sdr that looks fine in 99.99% of scenarios
>>107630710it's just shit monitor, i don't have any hdr related issues on win 10

Is it worth getting into 3d printing?it looks like a cool hobby but I don't know if people just forget about it after playing around for a month
>>107629862I'll take a look at the freecad tutorials, thanks anon.>OnshapeIf I was okay with using cloudshit I'd just get a local shop to print out my stuff instead of having a printer myself.
>>107629892I had like a hard time with FreeCAD for two weeks tearing my hairs out constantly running into weird bugs or UI quirks but then things snapped into place and now I subconsciously side-step bugs or something. The mangojelly vids are the best freeCAD educational videos, hands down. I get the app-image with the weekly build since freeCAD is in active development and I like to get the bleeding edge version since I only use it for hobby stuff, yet. Anon.. You're not into ghost guns, are you?
>>107629041Absolutely get a printer. It's super fun to design shit.
>>107629619If you're familiar with scripting, try OpenSCAD or build123d.
>>107631068elaborate pleaseI want to know about the posibilities

>>107628630Good choice. You cannot go wrong with a nice minimalist top mount board.
>>107629986Absolutely based.
>>107629433lol no. wait until they figure out how to make it feel good and sound good. the he pcb is fine, but the feel and sound just aren’t there yet.
MX Blacks sound so weak on POM! I need Nixies to bring the BASS out from it! MX Nixies on POM!
>>107631019Try Geon's Venom80 board with Geon's Raw HE switches. It's a big step up in both feel and sound. I won't try it myself obviously, but credit where it's due to GEON <3

>>107630872>LED light bulbs don't have a 30,000 hour rating for nothing you know?>If you want your display to last forever while having a decent image, IPS is your only option.What do you think is illuminating your IPS panel?
>>107630821Blooming, sure. But even worse is the response time.
>>107631064That degrades things evenly.Burn-in happens because individual LEDs degrade more than neighboring LEDs, causing an image to appear. If everything degrades evenly you don't get burn-in, your whole display just gets slightly less bright.
>>107631083Yeah, so eventually it goes kaput too. So it's far from "lasting forever".
>>107631104It just means you get like 70% maximum brightness after a decade of constant use.Unless your display is in direct sunlight and needs to be super bright it's not a big deal.

>Cannot make EUV machines>Cannot make reusable rockets>Cannot make nuclear aircraft carriers>Cannot make 2nm semiconductors or GPUs>Cannot even make ballpoint pensWhy are the chinese so bad at technology? Why does the world try to make China seem like a tech powerhouse? They're still basically India/Africa level, completely unable to innovate or to develop advanced technology.
>>107630327They're getting there faster than you'd think. And thank god for that. More competition is better for consumers. Chinese alternatives are only a threat to the entrenched elite who already jew everybody over.
>>107630372More like 20 years kek. Also, in two years China will have collapsed
>>107630760>They're getting there faster than you'd think.nice cope chang
By the time they figure out how to make those, we will have already moved on. Chang will NEVER catch up to the Huwhite Man.
>>107630327>Cannot even make ballpoint pensReally? Why?

AI bros are stealing art from 10 year old kids, what the fuck
>>107629245I like the E6ai definition, you're a director.You direct the artist to do whatever you want.And if you're a shit director that does not care about the end result, it ends up being shit.
>>10763067811/10 troll if true.Seeing Luddites angry amuses me.
>>107629212a bit of an overreaction to a tool recommendation
>>107629212They would do that, unironically. And I, for one, will enjoy watching Americoon "culture" get completely replaced by statistical models regurgitating shit corporate jews scraped off of tumblr. """AI""" is a perfect civilization filter.

I keep telling myself faggot you are a grown man, earning big salary, be a man and not a kid anymore and buy a good respectable automatic watch but this thing that looks like a kids toy I have on my wrist is pure perfection of engineering and utility and usability
>>107630976Yeah I'm really happy with it. Grab one when they're on sale if you can. Super cheap and durable.
>>107630976When I was in China all their best brands were focusing on analog/mechanical, they already kill it in that field
>>107630976They improve on some stuff but are still miles behind on other. Their modules lack features and almost all of them have shitty viewing angles. Water proofing is a gamble. The most important downside, imo, is their quartz movements are less precise then casios. They're good for 10 dollars but in case of ops watch why bother if you can get the original for 30.
>>107631096You are aware that the "original" is made in China also?
>>107631106So what?
What's wrong with 24/7 AI surveillance and mandatory digital ID for web browsing and computer/phone access if it decreases crime and human suffering?
>>107628374>bro just let me put my finger in your ass>bro if you have nothing to hide, what's the big deal?>bro what if you have colorectal cancer? >bro its for your safety
>>107628851These concerns exist regardless of AI. The AI is simply more advanced monitoring, like the introduction of surveillance cameras was. It will send data to the police who use their discretion to decide what to do. And "wrong place at wrong time" is actually less likely when you are 24/7 tracked.
>>107628374The argument for total surveillance often relies on Utilitarianism—the idea that safety for the majority justifies the loss of privacy for the individual. However, critics argue this creates a "pyrrhic victory" where the cost of safety is the loss of what makes society worth living in.1. The Psychological Cost: "Social Cooling"When people know they are watched 24/7, they undergo social cooling. They stop taking risks, exploring "fringe" ideas, or behaving eccentrically. This creates a society of forced conformity, stifling the innovation and dissent necessary for social progress.2. Function Creep & Political ControlSurveillance tools rarely stay within their original scope. A system built to stop "crime" can easily be repurposed to: * Suppress Dissent: Identifying and silencing political rivals or whistleblowers. * Enforce Social Credit: Throttling web access or freezing funds based on "civic behavior" or legal but "unpopular" opinions.3. The "Honeypot" RiskMandatory digital IDs create a single point of failure. * Security: If a central database is hacked, every aspect of your life (medical, financial, social) is compromised at once. * Algorithmic Error: If an AI "glitches" and flags you incorrectly, you could be "deleted" from society—unable to work, communicate, or buy food—with no human recourse.4. Loss of Human DignityPhilosophically, total surveillance treats humans as objects to be managed rather than autonomous beings. It assumes everyone is a "pre-criminal" and removes the "Right to be Forgotten," meaning a single mistake can follow a person forever, preventing redemption.> Summary: While crime might drop, the result is a "Goldfish Bowl" society—safe, but devoid of the privacy, anonymity, and freedom required for a healthy, evolving democracy.

I haven't changed this open loop coolant in 8+ years.You fags claimed it would go bad or something.It's fine.
>>107630369I won't doxx myselfI'm an important racist.
>>107630285My H110i went on for 7 years before the pump failed. Now I just do the common sense thing and use a PA.
>>107630364You should have been a p diddy defence lawer
>>107630322>>107630338>My original loop was using distilled water friend. That's the one that got gunked up.Well, yes. Distilled water is incredibly corrosive. Use the clear and specialized coolants currently available and you won't have to change it unless air gets into your loop consistently. They've already solved this problem for you.
>>107630322just use vodka. alcohol is a better coolant.
Why did America outsourced parts of its tech industry?
>>107628323I mean in essence he's not wrong. Culturally the US is much easier going than places like China or whatever. There's less focus on STEM subjects, and a lot of our schools are getting progressively dumbed down.But he's a scammer faggot who got rich off rug pulling.
>>107629221But is that not what Americans have? Their own government seems to actively support their largest corporations. Changing policy to benefit them rather than trying to break up their several dozen monopolies to promote better competition. Which would be a more true capitalist approach to things, and healthier for the overall economy.I don't know. I don't think it's going to be good for Americans until they move past their seeming worship of corporations.
>>107628323Because they want slaves that are easily controllable and will do anything and everything that's asked from them else they get jettisoned back to their shithole country.
>>107628323>Why did America outsourced parts of its tech industry?If you look at most of these jeeted IT companies they have lots of ex-mossad and israelis on the board of directors. they outsourced to keep Americans away from their surveillance apparatus.
>>107628323Jeets are so fucking disgusting. This guy's created a billion dollar scam through fake pharma company pump and dump. He needs to get his asset taken and then deported
Game developers are cucks. They earn peanuts, need to know physics, math, hardware, and optimization techniques, and spend their time and effort just to make man-children happy.Pathetic.
>>107613538kek, I stopped caring about getting a career as a game programmer when I was in college learning various compsci topics years ago and realized the starting salary was peanuts compared to other tech industries and the churn rate for employment was high and then there is the literal no work life balance when crunch time rolls around.
