>970
i bought 2 970s for SLI. After the VRAM issues became well known I returned them to Newegg for a full refund. I then joined the class action lawsuit against Nvidia and was the named plaintiff in my state. I bought two 980s with my settlement money. Even for free that was the worst purchase i ever made. That was the shittiest generation of GPU ever.

>>107850544

You made this pos during covid? That GPU was a few years old by then, no?

My 2012 HP desktop I bought from a "refurbished" company with a GTX 780 in it that could barely play 1080p videos without stuttering?
Nah.
I just built two new rigs.
>9060 XT 16 GB
>5600X
>64GB ddr4
And
>9070 XT
>9800X3D
>64 GB ddr5

Now I'm set for a while.
But I also got a B580 12GB because it was on sale so I will probably build a budget rig around that as well.

Considering the premise is ludicrous, you have two options. Either:
1. Nobody reasonable is actually expecting AGI from current-architecture LLMs. They mean something else but journalists are tech illiterate and don't care anyway, they want a catchy headline, so they'll distort everything just to get more clicks. Or,
2. The claim is hype blown out of proportion by constant repetition and modification on social media, like Chinese whispers but dumber. You've heard of it specifically because it makes people go "whaaaaaat???"
I suppose it could be a bit of a mix of the two as well.

It's even worse: the average AI enthusiast is retarded, and they are probably 1-2 std deviations above the average population in a western country, which is 1-2 std deviations above the average population in the world.

I know very little aboot Linux and all the distros. I know even less about the platforms that are used on/with all the various versions. one thing i have heard in passing is that Wayland is the way forward. I can't even say that i know what it is or what exatly that means, but I guess it matters. I *think* i have heard cinnamon supports it, does budgie?

I am not into tinkering with my computers. I just want them to work and perform basic operations without excessive involvement & terminal coding from me. I honestly dont even know what all to the different distros do that justifies all the chatter, aversion & allegiance to one vs another. elementary was reccomended to me based on wife and I having 20 years of familiarity and comfort with Mac OS. I dont really know what questions I should be asking myself about what my needs & wants are in relation to guide me to an appropriate distro.

before I switch tracks, of at all possible, I would like to just install and use Elementary 8.1 since I already have it on a USB drive. im not opposed to switching, but i would like to attempt to resolve the Elementary install problem first.

>>107852835
cool but too hacky. This makes the intent clearer:

if [ $(date +%s -d "today 10am") -gt $(date +%s) ]; then
    date -d "today 10am"
else
    date -d "tomorrow 10am"
fi

Maybe, idk. Its a pretty nice phone imo. Has sd car support and a headphone jack. Is as powerful as the other flagships. Looks cooler. Is ip68 rated.
Sounds like youre retarted m8

>>107849114
you underestimate how most people use their phones. when removable batteries were around, most people never changed them when they wore out, they just got a new phone. when sd card slots were around, most people never used them. if there was enough demand for these things then they'd still be available because the profit would outweigh the cost savings, but most people are not autistic tech dweebs

The tyranny of the retarded normie majority

is an rx 550 enough to do a single transcode of a 4k source file to 1080p? if not, what about 720p?
context: all of my personal devices handle any files i throw at them without needing transcoding server side, but my mom's TV is hooked up to a crappy low power roku express lol

>>107851617
it can, but amd encoders were ass until rx 7000
onn android tv box is 20-30 bucks though

what about the hdr -> sdr tone mapping stuff? isn't that gpu intensive too?
>onn android tv box is 20-30 bucks
this gpu is just sitting inside my pc doing nothing (almost nothing, sometimes i run a gpu passthrough macOS VM with it), i might as well use it
oh and i forgot to mention that i'm on linux, so vaapi (if that's relevant, idk what the performance hit is) instead of amf or whatever the windows one is called

>I have an FB account of a deceased relative, I want it ERASED, not used as a "digital memento" for this fuckers to exploit. what should I do?
I have no idea if this still works. But 12+ years ago when I nuked my old account from the original migration from myspace I did the following:
>write small script to refresh my feed and auto-delete everything
>facebook will detect it and stop serving you content at some point
>let it run for 5+ days (longer if you actually used the service more than once a month like I did)
>stop for a few days
>check again, it'll start serving you old posts you made years ago that it was hiding
>let the script run again
>repeat this process until you're sure everything is gone
>request account closure/deletion
>do not log-in for 2 weeks
>ignore all emails they send attempting to trick you into logging in (it restarts the 2 week counter)
>request the CD/DVD of all your personal data they're supposed to send you by law (never got mine, still waiting over a decade later)
>deal with the fact that normalfags are going to be angry for the next 5 decades that you do not accept their friend requests or return messages

Normies in my country literally only use facebook/instagram, so if you want to socialize you are forced to use them. Yet fb/ig keeps banning me every time I try making a new acc because presumably I haven't deleted my old ones and they won't allow more than 1 acc, and I can't remember the password to them or their email acc. Just kill everyone working in Meta at this point. I fucking hate this world. My name is not important. What is important is what I'm going to do... I just fucking hate this world. And the human worms feasting on its carcass. My whole life is just cold, bitter hatred. And I always wanted to die violently. This is the time of vengeance and no life is worth saving. And I will put in the grave as many as I can. It's time for me to kill. And it's time for me to die. My genocide crusade begins here.

It's still a valid argument though and that is in fact why I'm still using firefox, despite it being a shit browser, because I am not about to submit to chrome dominance.

Honor shit never ever comes stateside so I wouldn't hold my breath. The closest thing would probably be the Moto Signature but it's thicker and heavier (still thinner and lighter than any recent flagship though) and is bigger. The Honor phone seems way better, at least from an engineering standpoint.

>>107853216
Actually, Motorola hasn't said whether or not the Signature will be coming stateside, but I'm guessing it won't. USA rarely gets the good shit Motorola makes and to my knowledge their low end/midrange phones are the ones that sell like hotcakes here so they're probably prioritizing that demographic
