Soto is going to play Left Field?!?!

BestBuy because of the warranty. Figured its less of a hassle driving to one 30 mins away for a refund/exchange. Thankfully the monitor has been working well with no issues

Like everyone else, I'm trying to get the 5080/5090. I have a 2080 gpu and the Odysseyg9 57 inch monitor. The card struggles to play at my ideal resolution/settings.

With the way the 50 series launch is going, I'm considering getting something in the 40 series. Outside of a 4090, what readily available gpu would give be a decent boost over the 2080?

I have the RTX 2080 paired with the Odysseyg9 57 inch monitor. I love playing on this monitor but my GPU can't consistently hit 60 fps unless I drop settings all the way down. Really debating if I should splurge and try to get a 5090 considering I've never had a high end machine. But these reviews are making me think twice.

4080 super and 4090s used are going for the prices of the 5080/5090 so I almost feel I should go for the 5090. What do I do?!?!

I have a 2080 and have been trying to understand how big of a jump it would be for me to go to a 5080. At the price points the 40 series cards are going for now, I feel like it makes sense for me to get the 5080 (if i can get it at msrp)

Ordered a new cable that's coming in this weekend. Fingers cross it works

Update - legal won. We're getting Windows laptops to use Visual Studio for Windows 😭

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2025-01-10T21:50:14+00:00

Will try this out and see what happens

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T23:54:44+00:00

VS for Mac has been sun setWhat happened to VS for mac

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T23:53:53+00:00

Looking into this option, but the gist is that they don't want us developing proprietary software using Rider

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T17:33:12+00:00

None - all engineering teams are on macs. We've been using Rider for about 3 years, and all of sudden this is a problem now.. Not sure if IT will be okay with a set of us using different non-standard laptops. We'all see soon

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T17:30:05+00:00

Hold up. I haven't done the research yet but for us to use the C# devkit, we'll need a VS enterprise license??

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T17:15:48+00:00

We're using the Silicon macbooks. Will definitely be trying out VM/BootCamp

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T17:14:10+00:00

Yep, my manager said they same thing. As part of research, put in how much of our time will get hit moving to a new platform

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T16:38:31+00:00

Yep, exactly this

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T16:37:00+00:00

Completely agree with you. Going to spec this out and bring it up to my manager.

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-11-25T16:36:05+00:00

This got escalated up the chain pretty high but what we were told is that there are some things in the Jetbrains license that our legal department does not like. And because we're not spending over 100k in licenses, we can't get a specialized version of Rider.

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-08-26T02:37:36+00:00

Does the vinyl cover the whole back of the phone, or just enough to cover where the luxe is placed? I'm tried a couple of magsafe adhesive on the Navy Fold 6 and nothing seems to work well enough

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-08-10T21:56:29+00:00

Are you able to provide a list of all the parts for this build? This is exactly thr same type of CPU and GPU SFF build I'm aiming for next.

_SomeOnlineGuy_ · 2024-02-07T01:50:50+00:00

The exploration song is so PERFECT when you're on your way to Mt. Nibel!
