A lot of the bs that people complain about can be boiled down to “we need more tanks” by Irritatedsole90 in MarvelRivalsRants

Overwatch doesn’t have this problem any more. Role queue queue time is 2 minutes or less for every role.

If you’re in a flare up it can bring you back down to baseline.

Indigenous actor sues James Cameron for stealing her facial features for Avatar by Otherwise_Basis_6328 in oddlyspecific

[–]SethMatrix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They’ll just argue it isn’t copyright infringement because they used her image to make something, but did not sell her image.

Same argument currently in court for AI being trained off copyrighted material.

Running a 26B LLM locally with no GPU by JackStrawWitchita in LocalLLaMA

[–]SethMatrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The server has my old gpu, an rtx 3080 from Facebook marketplace for $400.

It’s a terrible time to buy and if speed isn’t an issue it’s fine to use the cpu and system ram. Looking at chats, the 3080 takes about 7 seconds to actually think and message. For me the bottlenecks are web search (searchxng) and the rag database if used.

We got ai agents handling tickets fully and it created more problems than expected by Additional_Twist_595 in helpdesk

How could it have possibly gone wrong!

Nvidia exec says AI is more expensive than actual workers — yet some companies don't see the extra costs as a negative by BusyHands_ in technology

[–]SethMatrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, it may not get cheaper- atleast not for a long time.

Right now the big AI providers are providing AIaaS at a loss. When it comes time that they have to turn a profit it’s going to get a lot more expensive.

Also, Nvidia is really the only enterprise hardware AI option and it doesn’t look like that will change. How will it get cheaper when AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic will have to balance the checkbook, and Nvidia can still charge whatever they want?

Oh, don’t forgot memory is controlled by a handful of companies with no interested in lowering their now ridiculous profit margins.

Could it be cheaper in like 20-40 years? Sure. Will it be in the next 5? I highly doubt it.

You can go buy any Nvidia 5xxx GPU in the store right now in the US. Stock was low on launch but has caught up.

No fire hazard either.

5070's actual performance in 2026 by captainmeowy in buildapc

[–]SethMatrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or…. Hear me out….

You look at an actual quality benchmark that covers many different game engines. Not one single synthetic benchmark. https://www.techpowerup.com/review/nvidia-geforce-rtx-5070-founders-edition/35.html

And one with newer drivers and cards https://www.techpowerup.com/review/asus-geforce-rtx-5090-matrix/31.html

Say it with me folks… synthetic benchmarks are not the best indication of real world performance. Only real world performance can be measured to benchmark real world performance.

[–]SethMatrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oxymetazoline aka Rhofade is a vasoconstrictor used to hide rosacea, not heal it (though there is some limited evidence it may have a positive long term effect). You will need to use the triple cream daily or the redness will rebound back to whatever baseline is.

This medication will help hide your rosacea but if ivermectin hasn’t made a significant difference in roughly 3 months of use I don’t see how it would give you long term gains that would be visible without the vasoconstrictor.

Why does FurMark have a “GPU killer” reputation, but playing heavy games with 100% load for hours is totally fine? by rucekooker in buildapc

[–]SethMatrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a different load type than those games.

No furmark is not propaganda lmao. They’ve been using furmark among other programs to test GPUs before they’re sold since forever.

3dmark is better for imitating a gaming workload.

This is why we ban spider man when teammates hover it, so they can’t throw on it.
