    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I think we're basically at the floor for crypto and near the floor for stocks. Stocks and crypto will recover if the dollar starts coming down a bit, which is likely soon. The dollar and specifically 2-year US treasury bonds are the safest bet anywhere right now, and until that materially...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    Interest in anything is never truly dead. You will always have die-hards clinging on. There's still a Vanguard thread FFS. EDIT: Woops, I meant a Pantheon thread. But yeah that's still basically a Vanguard thread.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    Haven't those 3 conditions already happened? Interest in crypto and NFTs has cratered and most big growthy tech stocks are over 50% off their highs. Crypto was never super relevant to the overall market anyway; at it's height, all of crypto's market cap was still less than Apple + MSFT combined.

    The lack of volatility in BTC and ETH is due to waning interest.

    Half Life 3 really ruined the ending of the series BY NOT EXISTING.

    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    The last area/boss fight of Horizon Forbidden West ruined the game because it was so easy and uneventful.

    Yeah let's see the 13700k reviews. The 12700k was crazy value when you could buy it under $345.

    Everything is going to be hot when you run it with unlimited turbo at peak load. The CPU will run at maximum power for as long as it can without throttling, which is never if your cooling solution is adequate. That is not the same thing as saying that the CPU will run hot all the time. A...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM (2022)

    It's not meant to be perfect. It's meant to put a high burden of proof on the prosecution. That burden was met, according to the jurists. He has a right to demand a new trial, and has a strong case for it to be granted.

    The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM (2022)

    Absolutely no discussion in this thread has been about the movie itself. It's a blatant attempt to put a political thread in a non-political forum.

    The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM (2022)

    Yeah, in a country where Joe Biden isn't even liked by hardly any of the people who voted for him, and half the country wants to impeach him, old Joe's opinion was definitely the deciding factor for all 12 jurists. That makes sense. It couldn't possibly be the fact that he looked like an...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM (2022)

    We live in a society where it is very difficult to convict people. We have a system. A really good one, assuming the accused has good legal representation and demands a jury trial. Chauvin had good legal representation. Chauvin was convicted by a jury. It requires the unanimity 12 people...

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

    I'm thinking a driver-level optimization that uses realtime and historical data to tune the card to prefer lower power consumption. So a third option here in the drivers that automates the process, rather than having to use Afterburner to lower the voltage/frequency curve or set a power limit...

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

    Overclocking as we've known it for the past 20 years is stupid. Chips should be intelligent enough to push their own limits given the cooling and power situation provided to them, while not consuming excess power to do the same amount of work. If anything, things should be going in the...

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

    There's no point in getting anything that's factory overclocked because overclocking does literally nothing but use more power for the same performance, at least for the 4090.

    The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM (2022)

    No, definitely everything wrong in the past decade or so is from too many people paying way too much attention. And the loud people on either side being very loud about it, and the people in charge pandering to that. All of the mask mandates and lockdowns is from everyone being glued to cable...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM (2022)

    It really fucking doesn't. 70% of people would be better off not paying any attention to politics at all outside of a few weeks before a pending election, and just grinding hard on improving their personal life and/or the life of their family using the tools they have in front of them. For...

    Yeah I don't want anything that's not a Pixel. I'll deal with it because everything else about it is great, especially for work stuff. I hope they make something smaller in the future but this is good for now.

    What do you mean? I timed the daily top of SQQQ almost spot on. Unless you're saying you expect another flush into the US close.
