Was it the biggest mistake of nvidia?Nobody bought new cards for many years, and some still use it even now.
>>107664603you got that right, though the shitty modern AAA games are to blame too
>>107664603I had/have a gtx 960. It runs all of my games just fine, on low. Upgraded to an rx 7900. Haven't really pushed it, but I want to do some shit with blender and unity, and I don't see gpu prices coming down soon.Nvidia would be fine if they would quit catering to contracts with tech giants instead of retail customers. But it seems they're on that path. The end of contracts/ a bad contract is a bigger hit than a bad retail card, but who knows what will happen.

>>107664796All temps ok, it never got higher than 70C, all 3 fan were good.Black screens showed up randomly after between one hour to two days, without any pattern of usage.After that, the motherboard wasn't seeing the gpu for hours to days.It was likely a failing soldering or broken gpu/vram. Everything looked ok with a visual inspection.

Still the most futuristic versions of Windows/Office to date!
>>107673686Some buttons being bigger or smaller than others for seemingly no reason always triggered my autism. I stuck to Office 2003 for ages before switching to LibreOffice just to avoid using this schizo UI.
>>107673813> randomly big buttonsWhat got me was how much space Word dedicated to the Style portion. I like Word's style system, I rarely use it but it's good. Nobody needs giant preview buttons for 5 styles taking up half the ribbon.
>>107673618>looks 20 years old>because it's 20 years old>"futuristic"
>>107674000And yet it still beats modern windows/office!
>>107674200You can make that claim if you like (you'd still be wrong though), but it's just a goalpost-shuffle from lt "looking futuristic", and that's an even bigger pile of copium-infused horseshit.
What's /g/'s opinion on Mental Outlaw? I've been a fan of his for a long long time, he's the one that made me privacy conscious and made me switch to Linux. I remember once reading in one of his comment sections that he was "bullied off /g/" by some guy, is this true? Also, if you're seeing this thread Kenny, hi!
Smart enough to snipe the Luke Smith audience and then actually does what retards thought Luke Smith did which he didn't.He works in the industry which puts him above 95% of linux YouTubers that do nothing but fiddle with config files and have no actual tech experience and partot wiki articles.He's not perfect but the bar is that fucking low.
>>107673767I will always remember Luke Smith as the perfect example of what happens when you fall for every single /g/ meme at once, without carefully analyzing them first.He owns four ThinkPads at least. While I see nothing wrong with them in themselves, as they are admittedly pretty good value for the price, four is just mindless consumerism, contradictory to his "philosophy".He started using every single shitty pseudominimalist, ncurses-based program, used a shitty riced out i3 setup of dubious actual productivity (like all tiling wms), then fell for the full Suckless meme and went in even deeper.Then he started making videos shitting on Python and praising C, which is ironic considering he is not even a programmer by his own admission.He effectively spent years trying out, configuring and hopelessly trying to integrate tens of meme programs to build what is, combined, effectively a shittier Emacs, just like most of /g/ was doing in their "productive" desktop threads a year or two ago.Then he read the Unabomber manifesto and blindly accepted it without constructively analyzing it first, same with the anarcho-primitivist ideology that was all the rage about a year and a half on 4chan and 8ch.While he stated on his website that he "didn't browse 4chan much anymore" it was obvious this wasn't the case.Then he went and took the memes way too far, and unironically went to live in isolation. While I see nothing wrong in itself, the actual reason he did it is massive cringe.He has the mentality of someone 10 years younger than he is, yet he acts like a literal boomer jokingly criticizing "zoomers" despite he himself being the worst example of a millennial.He attacks "nerds" when it't painfully obvious he's deeply unhappy with himself, as it was obviously self-directed criticism thinly veiled as an edgy dabbing video.He is a perfect example of someone you should avoid becoming at all costs.
>>107671181Bro stop. Please go talk to your family. Merry Christmas.
>>107670858He's fine, I don't get why /g/ hates him other than the obvious thing. Also the shill store. No I don't want to pay monero to get a shirt with satania's face on it when I could get real gabriel dropout merch for less.

How do they have so many packages? Do they compromise on security?
>>107670009I packaged an app and submitted a PR to nixpkgs and was ignored. Even joined their discord and performed their pr review begging ritual (yes, you actually have to do this) and it was left unreviewed for months. If having to perform political stunts to get trannies to put a green checkmark on your PR sounds nice then its perfect for you
I'm not going to use a distro that kills people.
>>107674031it only took the troons 6 months to approve a package lmao at anyone using this garbage
>>107671245sounds basedlinux programs already have security out of the box be it sudo or openssh or anythingso is the kerneldistro devs couldn't really tamper with these, all they do is packaging things

>>107673914It isn't because you're asking for both an efficient and inefficient machine at the same time, which is the point.

Any opinions on second hand/refurbished laptops, for example from ebay?I only use my current one when I'm away from my home PC e.g. visiting my parents such as at holidays now and so don't want to spend good money on a nice one, but it's showing it's age with a GeForce GT 650M and something a bit better would be great.

>>107669441You're actually right but Orange Man and Republicans don't care about ethics, they break the law openly on national TV. Which leads to the problem of Tech never getting their comeuppance.

They can barely do any computingI am not sure if anyone is actually buying them

>>107673589no, but it is already designed in the architecture, and gives nvidia the ability to use gddr6 for markets like china if it gets restricted or if there is markets shortage and want to dump the gamers with older vram so they can use all the newer one for datacenters.it makes sense to have it at least in a validated design, now if its on the ends units i cannot be sure. i give it a 50% chance of being it, and a 20% chance of the hack anon posted to be real.>captcha can triforce
