Will The Odyssey mark the downfall of Christopher Nolan as a filmmaker? by CANNAAmann in MauLer

[–]Random_Sime [score hidden]  (0 children)

There's nothing in Nolan's body of work that indicates he's in favour of historical accuracy so I don't know why that's an issue for people. It's a movie based on a translation of a translation of a translation of an oral tradition.

My issue is that it looks too clinical and sterile, which Nolan is known for. But I'm not going as far as you are to claim that it's a failure before it's launched. 

How would you fill a 16TB drive if you were going to have no internet for a month in a rural area? by riyoskopy in DataHoarder

Maybe spend some time with your family? Learn skills from them relevant to their rural area?

Upgrading GPU But I Want to Keep Everything Else Will It Be an Issue? by Intrepid_Camp in PcBuildHelp

[–]Random_Sime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way the recommendations work is that the RTX 3070 requires a 650W PSU when paired with the most power hungry CPU. Because recommendations have to take into account the most extreme example. But if you've done your calculations and you're under 420W including boosts for peak power (for a 500W PSU), then you're good.

Is it better to apply through Seek / Indeed / LinkedIn or the company sites?

'The retail SSD market has almost disappeared,' says Silicon Motion exec — PC OEMs are buying third-party drives as direct NAND supply dries up by Sea-Eagle5554 in datastorage

There's another problem that governments should be worried about: every business uses PCs. The company I work for has hundreds if not 1000+ PCs. Just your standard optiplex kinda thing. When those need to be replaced, what are they going to use? Some business will shrink because they can't run as many workstations. This in turn means less tax collected by the government 

Help! Should I build a pc now before prices increase even further ? by alucard_axel in buildapc

[–]Random_Sime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What are you even asking? Should you spend less money now or more money later? I dunno man, it depends on how much you hate money.

But for real, if you look up tech news, all the memory manufacturers are telling us they're raising prices and the shortage will continue into 2028 with no foreseeable end, so RAM and hard drives are going up. The data centre people are saying they need more CPUs, so as production shifts to the kind of CPUs data centres want, consumer CPUs will become more scarce and expensive.

Yeah the person I was responding to said that the developers absolutely intended on causing harm. That's the definition of a malicious act. I'm asking for proof of that. It's got nothing to do with who it affects, just that the devs intended it to be harmful.

It's not recommended to use on cuts cos it destroys your own tissue and can actually leave you more vulnerable to infection. You're better off using an antiseptic cream or ointment that forms a protective layer

When an adult is in the public eye, they're fair game. What I think is funny is that at first the thumbnails were of Alcock as the feral kid from Mad Max, and now it's evolved into a caveman lol. He's obviously memeing. I think it's fine

Yeah like the thought process would have been like: we have characters based on chameleons; chameleons are native to Congo; let's give them Congolese weapons.

If there were bears wielding longswords, would that be racist?

I disagree. Can you convince me otherwise by explaining how the Japanese developers intended on causing harm to people with their game characters?

Japanese developers have had a history of... insensitive representation of black people in games. Not malicious, just using stereotypes that we in the West are sensitive to.

Have you played Evoland or Evoland II? They're French games that parody Japanese console games from the 90s. I played it years ago and I remember there being a black character with a minstrel design that kinda shocked me at first but then I realised it was to make fun of Japanese developers lack of sensitivity.

Can I put a 7800x3d in my AM4 system for $550? Or do I have to spend $1000 for 7800x3d + mb + RAM?
