    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    If Trump wins, money printers will brrr, SEC regulators will all get fired, and crypto will go on a huge tear. It'll be terrible for the dollar but if that's not what's behind your assets it could be great for you.

    I don't even notice the 1800R curve on my OLED G8. I doubt 1700R will be noticeable at 32 inches. I kinda want the Dell, because it looks fucking amazing, but there's benefits and drawbacks to Ultrawide and I'm not sure which would ultimately be best.

    All I hear is "I'm shit and I like being fed shit." Every AI voice acting tech we've heard so far is garbage, and even if it gets to average it'll still just be average, never good. It will be used to make worse games so future Bobby Koticks can capture more margin for themselves. Many of the...

    The system encouraging people to invest their cash in either capital assets to improve their lives or businesses to generate money, or invest it the market, rather than incentive them to hold assets in cash, could arguably be considered a great strength of the system. If holding cash was the...

    BTC will never be adopted as everyday financial infrastructure. It will never be liquid enough. It can be used for some things, like as a replacement for SWIFT, but I'd be willing to bet a different token is eventually adopted for that. This leaves BTC as mostly just digital gold. That could...

    Apparently we're all wrong. These need to be internet connected because they track the torque of every bolt, configure the bolts for certain torque patterns. This is all fed into a supply chain control system that keeps track of all of this. Why? Well, the answer is exactly what Boeing is...

    I've gotten 28.3k worth of raises in the past 18 months, and I could likely get 10-15k more just by threatening to quit for a third time. Two of my manager's peers have called me (the two managers that initially hired me) and encouraged me to do so. I just don't think it's worth the stress at...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    The 4080 Super and 4070 ti Super both seem correctly priced for what they provide, at least relative to the rest of the line. Depends how much power you think you need. If you've got a 4k or 3440x1440 monitor, bigger GPU is always better. Less than that, no real point.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    Why would anyone buy a 4070 at that price when they can buy a 4070 Super for $50 more? Anyway, might buy a 4080 Super just because I can, wonder if I can get 600 for my 4080 FE.

    Serenity had a $25m budget and was better than 80% of Star Wars movies. They should have limited them to $50m.

    I love when it's literally a small indie studio instead of the 'small indie studio' meme that's frequently lobbied against Blizzard and other companies when they can't get their shit together.

    I have never played Everquest. Not even once. I went straight from MUDs to UO to DAoC to WoW. I did watch someone play a lot of Everquest when I was hanging out at WPI for a week. It looked like shit; they were like camping for some scepter or something the whole time.
