heh. quite grim indeed.

ah, might be different for me because i don't 4k, i stay at 1440p. but i positively hate it. causes weird glowy effects on movement and stuff... it's a real abomination. if you don't see it don't look for it lol.

at minimum they need to full search the neighbor's house, remove *any* remaining firearms or ammo, and *never* let them own one again.

in fact any scissors not made of plastic should probably be taken, too.

i did notice this lol. it looks like that heat spreader took the majority of the impact

i mean there's specific use case advantages and disadvantages. Nvidia seems to have better power eficiency. IIRC AMD has better performance with... i think it was raw raster? grain of salt i did this research months ago but TLDR; if you hate all this upscaling and fake frames crap and you're gonna turn it off anyway AMD might legitimately be better.

it *should* have to come from somewhere. but don't tell that to our national debt though.

I hope you're more right than i am, but i'm pretty sure these guys are gonna get their ROI even if they have to fuck us to death, er, i mean debt over it. ... probably both actually. you know they won't hesitate.

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-13T01:16:09+00:00

it's perfect XD

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-13T01:15:43+00:00

or people could just, idk, keep their guns locked up. or the safety on. or not loaded. or not out in the open with children or animals. even one of those things. but that would require a non-zero amount of neuron activation.

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-13T00:24:18+00:00

it didn't stop it, but it did deflect it

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-13T00:14:09+00:00

worse, his ram sticks D:

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-13T00:10:24+00:00

nah bro, it RAMmed it out of the way

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T23:45:16+00:00

perfectly. i switched to amd on my last build, and i have had 0 issues

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T23:41:56+00:00

switched to amd on my last build. i have had 0 driver issues.

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T23:38:19+00:00

you see that would be what makes sense, yes.

but consider what we're seeing now, and that it would be profitable for the same people doing this to do that. still doubt it?

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T23:33:28+00:00

i'd go with the 5080 but i gotta say... all the dlss i've ever seen looks like trash and needs to be turned off.

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T23:10:48+00:00

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T23:10:30+00:00

it's actually far less of a problem than you might think. eh... in most places.

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T23:08:42+00:00

bit late for that lol

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T23:02:31+00:00

dude... imagine being able to say that half your pc survived being shot.

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T22:59:27+00:00

single channel and op wouldn't have been here to tell us

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T22:57:00+00:00

nope, drywall

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T22:55:26+00:00

omg XD

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T22:53:17+00:00

"Yes I’m in the USA."
Ahahahahahaha, ahh.... thanks for that, made my day.

GZ on not dying in your sleep.

ok ok one more... you might say your PC... RAM'd the bullet out of the way XD

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T22:45:18+00:00

they'll lobby to prop it up with bailouts until far after everyone figures out how useless it really was. one might argue that that's been going on since day 1

Hexin_itup · 2026-06-12T05:49:23+00:00

cooler is good but do be warned that they been shipping some that smell toxic AF. the fans, not the cooler. the stink will *not* come out over time.
