REEEE i hate my customers
One day overnight in 2005:>can no longer use Windows 95>your PCI cards are garbage>your powerPC mac is garbage>can't run old video games>can't even read FAT16 without jumping through hoopsThis seems like a lot to sacrifice just to make int go bigger. Is there a real story behind this, like: they were trying to make these things obsolete on purpose? I'm thinking CIA backdoors and things like that
>>107121482You're barking up the wrong tree if that's what you're searching for.
4GB RAM limit was quickly reaching the point where it would have been a problem. I remember running 32b Windows XP on a 4GB machine and only about 2GB were actually usable because the rest of the address space was used up by video card memory mapping or fuck knows what other special reserved shit, I don't remember exactly. Back then I also dual-booted Vista 64b which actually supported the 4GB properly.AMD64 CPUs were also simply faster than the old x86 CPUs, because they maintained compatibility but also made some important changes like adding more standard registers to the architecture.
>>107121482Turns out that we actually did need more than 4gb ram. Not much more actually, 8gb is still enough for most PCs unless they have 100+tabs open.
>>107121573you can get 64GB RAM in 32-bit Windows by enabling PAE though
>>107121482I actually think this is one of those forced-obsolescence events that *wasn't* purely for nefarious reasons (install backdoors, seize an open source project, damage a competitor)It is a fact that PC software (especially vidya) was running up against the hard limits of memory address space. But I think an even bigger factor was that the dot-com thing was happening for real this time: normgroids were descending like locusts on sites like MySpace and Facebook, and *their servers* needed these changes just to keep up

https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/dram/dram-prices-surge-171-percent-year-over-year-ai-demand-drives-a-higher-yoy-price-increase-than-goldDRAM contract prices surged 171.8% year-over-year as of the third quarter of 2025. The increase now exceeds the rate at which gold prices have climbed. ADATA chairman Chen Li Bai stated that the fourth quarter of 2025 will mark the beginning of a major DRAM bull market.>He expects severe shortages to materialize in early 2026.Memory manufacturers had earlied shifted production priorities toward datacenter-focused memory types like RDIMM and HBM. It not home PC compatible. Consumer DDR5 production has declined as a result because partially same production line is used.>A Corsair Vengeance RGB dual-channel DDR5 kit that sold for $91 dollars in July now costs a $183 dollars on Newegg.The pricing trend extends to NAND flash and hard drives.(Hard drives contain 256MB DRAM for cache but such a small amount should be cheap in all circumstances)NAND price increase is easy to explain though, its same material as DRAM.Comment too long.

I use old used hardware and it accomplishes everything I need and want it to do so I don't have this problem.
>>107119714>Born artistic and not humanSo why not spend the days just painting away? Sounds comfy and the opposite of a problem.
>>107119480At the time 32GB ECC UDIMMs released, it was only 2400 and 3200 MT/s and the price difference was less than 10 dollars per stick. I can tell you for sure, people brought 3200 over 2400 in droves. That's why now, like for like, 3200 is actually even cheaper than 2400 on something like Ebay, same vendor.
>>107121461he meant autistic>>107119714you can learn to spell, also being on welfare is awesome congratulations. You have a "disability" that gives you the chance to never have to work a single day in your life. You NEVER have to do anything you don't want to do, you can work on whatever pleases you.
My VR broke in 2023 or 2024; I don't quite remember. I haven't been very active in the VR community since then, but it seems like VR is dying. I wouldn't say it's fully dead but it's not how it used to be.At first it was all cool and amazing, but now it's kind of boring and stale. Even before my VR broke, I could feel it nearing that point of “Wow, this is pretty ass.” Maybe it's the games? Perhaps it's the VR headset itself? I'm not sure. Does anybody know what caused some decline in the VR space?

apparently the ai bubble is 4x greater than the dotcom bubbleand yet i have never been so unimpressed with anything in my entire life
>>107118530omg is this real?
>>107121948To make sure that images, video, and audio will ever serve as evidence for anything again. Enjoy the hell you pushed the world towards, subhuman IT nigger.
>>107121407She is pretty cutie but im jaded
>>107119324Outside of generated porn, there's not much of a use case for the general public. Most AI generated slop is not monetized on youtube or other platforms anyway.The other use case is basically spreading misinformation.
it bubble only applies to all the various small ventures during the speculation phase. the internet didnt fail though. and neither will ai.

>>107121447whats that terminal 4chan? nice. should be easy if you use the json
>>107121465I'm using the json, and yes it's on the terminal. I have noticed that it only counted the image and not including other media formats
>>107121571looks good. i prob wouldnt use it for 4chan myself but its good to learn how to make those kinds of terminal things.i made something similar for twitter in the past.
Yeah it's a bubble.

So what happens when the bubble finally bursts? Will all those AI python scientists and vibe coders be out of job and they'll need engineers to clean their shit up finally?
thats gotta be the top, it's 1:1 like in '99
The screen protector is AI-powered, meaning it can automatically detect specks of dust and use AI nano wipers embedded in the screen to clean them. Since it has AI, this is a MUST buy.
>>107121193If I were to be extremely charitable, this optimisation could simply be the fact that the screen protector is bezelless, thus, it wouldn't obscure that colourful Apple Intelligence effect.
