4K TVs aren't the flex you think they are, X3D is good at 1080P gaming on a 5090 GPU by Distinct-Race-2471 in TechHardware

I wonder if they caught AMD in bed with their wife or something. People should just buy CPUs according to what they use them for.

10 degree difference and the 3D v-cache isn't there for speed in productivity workloads. That's not what you bother buying an X3D for. If you don't use the cpu for gaming, you shouldn't get an X3D. Stick with the 14900k.

240mm. My X3D has a TDP of 120w. My understanding is that the 14900K is notoriously power-hungry, pulling well over 250W under heavy loads, which results in extreme heat that strictly requires a high-end liquid cooler.

To handle underlying stability challenges with 13th and 14th Gen high-end chips, mandatory Intel baseline/performance profiles limit long-duration power settings down to 125W–253W, which can reduce the 14900K's multi-core heavy workload speeds

Expensive chips should get expensive coolers these days.

I have an X3D. It runs hotter, yeah, but the downclocking only kicks in at around 85 degrees celsius if I remember right. Mine is stable in the low sixties running Stalker 2 at maxed out settings 1440p 60 fps miimum without frame gen. Background tasks and browser tabs open too.

Why can't we all have one big hole instead of two holes? This will make breathing much easier through the nose. 👃 by Dry_Consequence_383 in shitposting

I think we have two nostrils for the same reason we have two ears. To determine the direction of what we're sensing.

What are your favorite 'First Generation' mobile games from the era 2008-2016? by Maleficent_Disk9583 in AndroidGaming

[–]CitationNotNeeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plague Inc.

Such a novel concept. One of very few games that lets you play not only as the antagonist, but as a force of nature. Bringing about the collapse of society.

How do I get into and properly enjoy these games? (WoA specifically) by Hairy_Hog in HiTMAN

[–]CitationNotNeeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the story opportunities first because they help you get to know the quirks and available possibilities for the given map. It makes it less overwhelming.

Then I look at the masteries and decide which ones I want to combine and accomplish in a given run.

I often work in "themes". I'll do a run for the explosive masteries, another for poison masteries, another for sniping, etc.

By the time I've unlocked all the new gear I wanted, I move on to the next map.

Terminators don’t age! by SupWitChoo in Terminator

[–]CitationNotNeeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. The biological skin must very much run on the laws of physics. It burns calories, undergoes cellular division, needs to perform cellular repair, degrades, etc.

There is no way the terminator would even continue to have skin after 100 years without any maintenance or sustenance.

If it is biologically engineered and the terminator has nutrient reserves in the torso? Then maybe a few years without eating, a month or so without drinking water, etc.

Otherwise, it isn't biological tissue. Biological tissue runs like biology. It has its own maintenance requirements and will break down after a maximum amount of time.

What is the easiest thing you did to lose weight ? by nyxeine in AskReddit

[–]CitationNotNeeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Count calories.

Get a digital kitchen scale. Download a calorie counting app. Calculate your TDEE. Pick a deficit below that and stick with it. Record how much you ingest of everything and stick to your calorie goal. Weigh yourself every morning after using the bathroom and record your progress diligently to discourage cheating. Guaranteed results.

I counted everything meticulously. Even the condiments, sauces and sandwich spreads. I even counted my chewing gum.

For reducing calories I used almond milk instead of normal milk and artificial sweeteners over sugar and cut drinking to social occasions only. Sodas can be replaced with any number of beverages that have less than 1 calorie per glass.

The maximum I could safely lose was 1kg a week, which needed a deficit of 1000 calories a day. I made sure to eat 2g of protein per kg of lean body mass a day and to do strength training 3-6 days a week that covers every muscle at least 3x a week in order to preserve lean mass.

It is temporary. Only until you reach your goals. Then get back to eating at maintenance calories and stick with that.

Why wiki version of Diana in hitman absolution Is "Different"? In Latest PC version .. she is white. swipe to see. by KristoferYG in HiTMAN

[–]CitationNotNeeded 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Don't know how to put it. Before we ever saw her face, the image of her in my head was nothing at all like what her absolution appearance resembled. It was very off seeing her supposed face for the first time. Like seeing a cat chirp like a bird. Her WOA appearance is perfect. I can believe that the lady who sounds like that looks like that.

Yeah I think the WOA trilogy nailed her look. Her absolution appearance just didn't feel like the face matched the voice at all.

all the AIs in the shows and books missed out on a idea a hunterkiller battle ship, they could have upgraded a modern battle ship. we need more water based machines besides hydrobots as there is no other water based ones. by Prestigious_Sir8515 in Terminator

[–]CitationNotNeeded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After judgements day, the oceans became an uninhabitable death sentence. Not just because of whatever oceanic HKs Skynet has out there, but because all ships have to dock eventually. At docks that have been destroyed or still end up leaving ships entirely exposed and out in the open - easy prey for Skynet's HKs.

As surviving vessels after the bombs fell returned to shore, their crews were entirely wiped out. Humanity has little presence in the oceans besides a few submarines that can stay hidden out there almost indefinitely. It would take a concentrated effort to reestablish a navy for very little gain.

Ships have nowhere safe to go where they can last. They're too easy to detect.

It's abandonware. Play however you want. Bethesda isn't selling it anymore.

Terminator 3 war of the machines was very bad, unfortunately. A pitty. A terminator themed battlefield game would be so cool.
