    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I dunno, read the fucking article. I'll quote the part again: Whatever the fuck corporate legal speak that means. It's quite possible that it depends on where certain components are assembled whether the tariffs apply or not and how much of the total cost of the product they apply to. Taiwan...

    Right, the tariffs have not impacted first-party board sales. But they do impact the prices that they have to charge 3rd party board partners. https://www.pcworld.com/article/394292/a-perfect-storm-why-graphics-cards-cost-so-much-now.html

    You realize the 25% Trump tariffs are still in place on GPUs, right? The GPU exclusion expired in early January 2021.

    This came. Has 1 stuck pixel that shows green on black screens but can't be seen on any other color screen. Small defect on the outer left edge. Might ask Amazon to send a replacement. Otherwise, holy fucking shitballs this thing is insane. Like I've said before, there is no comparison...

    I had a dream last night that ETH hit 7.2k in the near future. I don't think that means anything but just putting that out there.

    A lot of the capture points can only be captured by infantry. They could definitely do more to make it hard for tanks to dominate certain areas though. They're already planning on nerfing the hovercraft a lot.

    I always do check the holdings of my ETFs and mutual funds, and a lot of them are just heavily weighted to the Nasdaq.

    5120x2160 at 120 hz would be an insane amount of display bandwidth. That would be 30% harder than driving an 8K display at 60 hz. Don't expect this any time soon.

    Something like that, yeah. At the new employer, we have a few different remote monitoring tools (that often double as remote access gateways) that can be installed in customer environments, that then aggregate alerts up to master dashboards for each customer, which then have an integration to...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    At an MSP, I'd say 80% of all escalations, possibly even outages, for clients ultimately come because: A) A managed element (server, firewall, switch, etc) was never onboarded to monitoring when the customer was onboarded. B) The element was onboarded to monitoring tool, but the right SNMP...

    After playing quite a few hours the past 2 days I don't get the hate either, and some aspects of this game are just awesome. Subregions of a Conquest map are basically entire levels of other similar shooters. For instance, running around securing the points on the oil rig is fucking nuts. I...
