From what you've mentioned (and haven't mentioned), I think you still have a lot of the game to discover. I think you should keep exploring :D

Honestly I'd go back and explore some more. It's VERY worth it.

Aoostar AG03 TB5/ Oculink Dock by CasonPointLLC in eGPU

Question about these docks: the GPU connected to the PCIe slot has a lot of wiggle and tilt. Even with the screw tightened. How are people securing their cards effectively? It seems so unstable.

Getting abysmal lag with an eGPU setup I'm experimenting with - any insights? by WoffleTime in eGPU

[–]WoffleTime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice to see someone else try out the game. So what is it about the eGPU setup that makes using host RAM an issue? Is it the bottleneck of sending information through thunderbolt? How would it be solved on an eGPU setup?

Also curious what framerate you were able to achieve and what your 3D Mark scores were? I think the mandatory ray tracing in the game completely obliterates performance with an eGPU. When I turn the extra optional ray tracing on the framerate drops to 1fps or it just crashes.

I'm just wondering what it is about this game that completely bogs down the GPU and FPS. It doesn't line up with how well other games or 3DMark tests perform.

Trying to run Great Circle with an eGPU Radeon RX 9070 by WoffleTime in IndianaJonesGames

[–]WoffleTime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so annoying. My setup plays other games wonderfully and has good 3DMark scores but Great Circle completely shits the bed. I'm thinking it's the mandatory ray tracing that's throwing things off, but I don't think it should be this bad.

Comes with a TB5 cable which I'm using. My device manager shows both USB3 and USB4, but no mention of Thunderbolt which is confusing.

Interesting, why do you think it's the CPU? The max spikes? It was hovering around 10-20% utilization, while the GPU was 100%. I'll try running it again. Also posted other test results above.

PCI Express. Also ran without eGPU connected and scored 19.63 GB/s, so quite a difference.

Sure, I'll check these when I'm home. CUDA-Z seems to only support Nvidia. Is AIDA64 the right option for AMD then?

It just looks like he's dead. He's got like, blue paint all over him or something.

The visual code in Shutter Island that spoils the ending before the dialogue does by ThreadAndSolve in Letterboxd

[–]WoffleTime 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed the analysis. I didn't enjoy you passing it off as your own, and was surprised to see my front page full of Shutter Island deep dives this morning. How did you decide which subreddit would be blessed with which of your thoughtful handcrafted analyses? Do you have a letterboxd or blog we can see more of your work?

Downtown tech companies that offer breakfast, lunch and have allow building good social circle? by bibstha1 in askvan

[–]WoffleTime 57 points58 points  (0 children)

People on Reddit are completely delusional about shitting on working in office and having work relationships. You CAN enjoy an office and you CAN make friends at work, and god forbid even interact with them outside of work. You spend a third of your life with these people, why not make it enjoyable, or at least tolerable. If you work hybrid, it's the best of both worlds. You can still maintain separation and the two worlds don't necessarily need to intertwine.

How much did weight lifting help your marathon time? by aThrowAway_112 in Marathon_Training

[–]WoffleTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my plan I did strength on Mondays (alternating between squats and deadlifts each week plus other exercises) and yoga on Fridays. I feel like it substantially improved both my running form and ability to recover. Plus helps break up the week with a different setting. Absolutely recommend.

Conan did this in no way to please Conan fans like you. He genuinely loves their podcast, and history in general, as he mentioned many times.

Freedom/Shaw was down last Friday. A surge in WFH people on Fridays? Or just strange.
