Should I buy an RTX 5070 or an RTX 5070 TI? One is The RTX 5070 is a 750 plus tax in my country, while the 5070 TI is 1100 dollars (plus tax).


I read just now that NVidia is going to raise their prices and I get the feeling that if I buy the 5070, I'll end up needing to buy the 5070 TI in 2026 which at that point - it might be way too fucking expensive.

On the other hand, the thought of buying a GPU for one grand right now feels extremely painful. That's 1/4th of my monthly paycheck.

I always support any open source project that focuses on user experience since I believe Linux is sorely lacking in this regard.

Pretty much this is all you have to know. It's really a shame because I enjoyed EOS a long time ago. Very comfy because I don't like to rice and have no need of choice like that. I found out the Dev was a troon when the inevitable troon sperg out occurred. very sad.

you can keep things you don't use that often usable for longer.
there's also non-food uses like extending the shelf life of chemicals and stuff that loses potency from oxidization.
>>107695895
bigclive made a video about the cheapest chink vacuum sealer you can get. the takeaway is that they work but you should never leave it plugged in and unattended because they have no safety mechanisms in place and one tiny part failing can mean your house burns down.
would also probably at the very least source the bags locally from name brand stores if you're planning to use them for food.

If you're just in it for the money, chances are you'll be better off in Norway. But CPH is a really nice city (much nicer than Oslo imo), the people are friendly, coffee and bakeries are amazing, food is top notch. Then again, as a norwegian you probably enjoy the mountains a lot, and we have none of that here.

>If you're just in it for the money, chances are you'll be better off in Norway.
It's an interesting job and a nice opportunity to work abroad (but still relatively close to home). If I just had a generic job back in Oslo, I would definitively go for it. However, my current job is something I've worked long and hard to get and I've reached the point where I have so much seniority and trust at my current company that I can pretty much decide exactly what I want to work on at any give moment.

I enjoy Copenhagen a lot every time I go there, but of course all tourists enjoy going somewhere new.

>Then again, as a norwegian you probably enjoy the mountains a lot, and we have none of that here.
Sadly, I don't enjoy the mountains as much as I used to. Used to do it a lot more when I was younger, but it's kind of a hurdle to leave town to go to them.

I am regularly amazed that we pretend folders are the right way to organise files. They’re entirely arbitrary. Every competent file system ignores them to its best ability. Why can’t I have a file in two folders? Why does one have to be a “reference”? Why can’t I filter for files that exist in 3 folders with X extension?

We’ve been played for absolute fools.

See, it sounds like you don't know what research is. Research is not when you download a book and read the whole thing front to back. Research in this context is when you have a question and seek a small, self-contained answer.

Use a search engine. Find a PDF that may or may not have what you're looking for. It's not there but the PDF is still good for other stuff so you don't delete it. Go on to the next search result and the next PDF ad nauseam. Soon you've collected a bunch of files and you may not have a precise, ready made answer to your original question but maybe you can build upon the knowledge in the papers you downloaded.

I shouldn't have to explain this to you. The way you use a computer does not apply to how others use a computer. The way you use a computer is not the One True Correct Way™. If you have an inability to put yourself in someone else's shoes, it's your own imagination failing.

>Demonstrably false.
Because you can move any file and rearrange any folder hierarchy, it doesn't matter that it's a pain in the ass to fix it if you did it wrong and you have a lot of files?

>That's not what a filing system does

Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>
all “search” algos are on a variation of a b-tree index, so hierarchical filesystems were a way to make it simpler when you had limited compute

main issue is that if you wanna move away from it you need to start filling indexes with other shit to allow people to quick search for files, and that goes against the unix philosophy and its pretty much bloatware

I was like that I kept going back to windows until I used arch it has a steep learning curve but it works well with my hardware without messing around like I was on pop os or an Ubuntu based distro. You can use a script to install it so you don't have to follow all that stuff online but people apparently get angry about that, like literally just plug the usb in an type "archinstall" and then pick what you want. I was on gnome but just recently swapped to xfce because Wayland is a bit shit for Nvidia. I am still learning but all my stuff works on arch even my mic interface which usually never did and my soundcard and I can still play all my games with my mates it's pretty chill. Uses like 1 GB or less of ram on idle and use gamemode to optimise.
