It feels like the bottom felt out of the market and now if you want a computer that works as expected you need to get these ultra high end luxury RGB brainrot products.
Anytime I try to buy something in the mid range now it basically comes broken or falls apart in the first month of ownership.
You may as well buy Chinese ewaste from Ali express at that point.
Please stahp the mergers and acquisitions already pleeeeease.
Price drop put the 7900x at bargain bin prices and I bought that instead.
This is why being a wizard is illegal in Dragon Age.
Wall Street bets regards linked to an evil admin attack? 😕

I mean a few of us are still … Android, Chromecast (Android TV), Google One, Google Suite, Google Mesh, Nest (the few products that remain).
Google is collapsing because we are not the customer they serve (anymore). We are the product.
They have spoiled all the good will their brand has which means they are vulnerable to competition.
Steam users are the base everyone desires to get to but no one wants to pay the toll to Valve for building the platform gamers want.
There is something about the Palm Pre or Jolla Sailfish OS that was so endearing back then. Devices that support it just don’t exist.
My vote is universal Blue and its spins like Bluefin or Bazzite
Can you tell if an AI is being trained on these Lemmy instances? How would you detect it and stop it?
Large language models are going to replace search. Naturally concise recommendations are easier for humans to interact with than a swath of web pages. The problem that you get here is this is going to disincentive the creation of new web content outside of the walled gardens we already have. The walls are just going to get higher.
I gotta be honest, I love his deadpan dry ass thumbnails.
150 million is nothing for what Linus has control over. That’s like the combined net worth of 100 of the top paid strippers in Vegas. (I’m going by vice documentary numbers)
Don’t forget about newsgroups (⌐■_■)
Rant:
I built a PC for a friend of mine recently and got a bundle CPU motherboard and GPU (5600x3D microcenter exclusive at the time). I had so many problems with the Phantom Gaming 6600xt at the time. The machine would boot inconsistently. I went back to microcenter and returned the card after reading that the sapphire 6750xt didn’t have the same problems and swapped up to a sapphire.
This week I just bought a Radeon 7800 XT steel legend for 480$ USD. It was smaller and cheaper than comparable products. The card has the worst coil whine I ever heard and performed poorly. I assume I paid the price for not going for something like the sapphire nitro+. I went and swapped it out (at microcenter). 7800xt nitro+ is a much better card, does not whine and works as expected.
This may be related to the AMD/Radeon products…
I have a 3080ti from MSI that is a huge RGB glowing monstrosity in one rig and a dell 3090 24G in another. I got them used for 350$ and $600 respectively. I’m running the 3080 with a 12600k and the 3090 with a 7900x with higher end motherboards (Asus Maximus and ASRock Tai chi) and have no issues. I paid extra for these motherboards to ensure that I didn’t run into any weird compatibility issues.
I just keep getting burned on ASrock, MSI, gigabyte models of things in the lower tier price category. It makes me feel like “the medium soda 40 cents cheaper than the large because it exists only to make the large seem like a better deal.”
