When I clicked to see the image, I was honestly expecting the trash pile to be a Tesla Truck.

Maybe now you’re just being able to read things that interest you?

I took the minimum amount of science classes in highschool. Lack of science education is less of a problem than teaching you how to sort through bullshit and analytical thinking. I basically think that our school system needs to stop focusing so hard on teaching things from the textbooks in an ever-changing world that’s cherry picked from an endless wealth of knowledge and focus more on learning how to be skeptical and check various sources and such. In school it seemed like research was always just a backseat to the goal, instead of the goal itself.

Just buy two old 8GB ddr3 sticks and solder them together to make a 16GB ddr6 stick? Cheaper and one better than ddr5.

Lol at tits and ass on the cosmetic snek.

Gas price ranges are huge by what area you’re in. You may have paid $2.90, but I paid $2.15. there’s a few areas in other states that I know are under $2.00. California probably mostly over $3.00.

Yeah, I had the ram, but the 6600xt was the most I could buy without having to also upgrade my PSU.

Likewise. I haven’t bought a game that wasn’t at least a year old in a decade. Heck, right now I’m playing Psychonauts.

Paid under $200 for it and it punches well above the 1060 I’ve been using. Wanted a Radeon because they play nicer with Linux and this card is the beefiest AMD I could go without having to also buy a new PSU. Also couldn’t go much nicer anyhow or I’d be creeping up on games cpu limited, so it pairs nicely with the r 5 5600x. So for me and my particular set up it made for a nicely balanced hardware and cost choice. After this it will just be time for all new hardware in a few more years.

That’s alright. USB rails for a PCI slot are dirt cheap.

My eyes aren’t good enough for 4k. Lol

Jokes on them I just ordered a used r 5 5600x for a $140 upgrade. My shits old as dirt. I was on a 1600x and a 1060 GPU.

I went from thinking about a full rig upgrade, to just buying the best used processor and GPU my am4 board could handle with my current PSU and ddr4 ram.

Went from a ryzen 1600x and a Nvidia 1060 to a ryzen 5 5600x and a Radeon rx 6600 xt. I’ll be able to ride that out for a few years no problem.

A bit past his prime, actually.

I mean, ai is definitely costing people their jobs, trashing the environment, increasing electricity costs, causing stupid high silicone costs, and will be used to create misinformation and push narratives like nothing else before it. But there’s also pretty much zero chance of stopping any of it. The ultra wealthy control the world. It’s a tool to make them money and gain control of information and agendas.

It was placeholder art that needed to be there. It shaved off work hours. If it didn’t, then why would they have used it in the first place?

It means AI was used to replace work hours from humans. That’s kind of the whole point of anti AI.

Also, to go a bit extreme on an extrapolation of this: ai makes game and all assets. Humans then replace everything with non AI things that look pretty much the same and then say it isn’t an AI game.

Switches are like $15, dude.

It’s $90 and for if you want a wifi router. What are you missing?

You’re just rounding up an irrational number. You have a non terminating, non repeating number, that will go on forever, because it can never actually get up to its whole value.
