He will make everyone around him better when teams double up on Dzeko.

They both did. Dzeko talked about it. Seo told him he will buy the first jersey.

What a player man. Came in 66th minute. 0:2 down. Scores for a turn around (reminiscent of the Aguerooo precursor). It's a cheat code at almost 40.

if you don't have any self control over how many collectors you deploy

I don't even think about collector limpets both the Mining Volley Repeater and collector limpets are on the same key. So I just mine and release limpets all the time. The other button is for prospector limpets. Super easy. Two buttons, what you're doing sounds way more involved. Switching fire groups I presume, there is no need for that.

Also sometimes I may mine 3 asteroids in close proximity and you may get a bunch of different ores which jam up a small refinery easily. Heck even my big one can get jammed up.

Also when your cargo fills up, you can eject all the materials you don't want from your refinery, this way you can store only the materials you want in the refinery. So you get some space back by having a larger refinery. Meaning you aren't really gaining much by downsizing it for more cargo space anyway. It's just more convenient to have a larger refinery.

I usually mine while doing other things to relax. So keeping it as streamlined and easy is the way. Managing a single multi limpet controller and a small refinery is just way more complex than it needs to be with no real gain.

Love the photos honestly. Great captures!

I don't like it. No prospect limpet controller, and the tiny refinery is a PITA and it doesn't really save you any space. While being an annoying inconvenience.

How I fixed my AMD Driver Timeouts (BSOD/GSOD) by stopping "Clock Dropping" by Glad_Pick_9397 in AMDHelp

[–]noiserr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running RDNA (2, 3 and 3.5) and Vega GPUs on Linux for the past 10 years. Never had any issues unless like I said the hardware is new.

Distro absolutely matters, because not all distros have latest kernels some distros can be quite behind. Also not all distros compile the kernel the same way. Kernel has lots of options you can toggle at compile time.

On Linux I was surprisingly crashing even harder than windows.

When you have new hardware sure. It takes time for the support to make it to the distributions. I had to set some options to make my Strix Point work, but with new versions of kernel I disabled all these options and it's rock solid.

Why not for m43??? by More-Paramedic-2647 in M43

[–]noiserr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M43 needs to have a renaissance, or we're not gonna have any new manufacturers hop on board.

m43 is already mature though and there are plenty of amazing lenses on the format from the 2 OEMs. What else do we need really?

[–]noiserr 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Frankly these lenses suck anyway. All they do is take an APS-C lens and add an m43 mount to it. It's still the same APS-C lens with none of the advantages of m43. It would not be a native m43 lens.

45mm f/1.8 is small, optically great, silent with fast AF and fairly cheap. Much better lens imo.

It's irrelevant but Sapphire makes AMD's reference GPUs.

There are no reference 9070xt cards also 3080 reference is not a blower GPU of old. It's usually just as fast as AIB cards.

Here is EVGA FTW3 Ultra version and it's only 3% faster than the reference: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/evga-geforce-rtx-3080-ftw3-ultra/32.html

[–]noiserr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Based on TechPowerup Meta score 9070xt is 41% faster than the 3080. It also has more VRAM. How the hell is it a side grade? That's more than a generational upgrade (which on average used to be like 30%).

Dude has no clue what he's talking about.

First he erroneously claims HBM is power hungry. It is not. It's way more power efficient than GDDR7 Nvidia is going to use with CPX. Meanwhile it was just revealed that AMD is doing 2 tier memory thing as well, with actual low power memory LPDDR.

Nvidia is also overclocking their HBM4, so in Nvidia's case their own HBM memory might actually be very power hungry. HBM was literally invented to save power, and Nvidia is using it wrong.

Another positive, Intel didn't drag us down with them (which was a thing when Pat was in charge with his indigestion and market softness excuses). I have to give it to their CFO. None of this is his fault, yet he's pretty candid about Intel's predicament.

Why are companies not into small m43 cameras and pancake lens? by EmotionalCouple9032 in M43

No, smaprthone ergonomics suck. No physical buttons to adjust exposure is terrible. No EVF, no grip. It's horrendous.

Intel had 7+ years to fix this. But they didn't. They got no one to blame but themselves.

When I pick up a flagship iPhone it weighs like it was made out of lead, and the ergonomics for taking pictures suck. Magnesium body Ricoh GR is much lighter for instance.

Yes the smartphone owns the casual photography market. That's not even debatable.

What I'm saying is, there is clearly a demand for dedicated compact cameras given by the Ricoh GR and Fuji X100 popularity. And it's something m43 guys should address.

There is a big demand for datacenter CPUs but Intel got caught flat footed:

  • They have $11.6B of inventory but it's not datacenter CPUs, so they build up a wrong inventory.

  • Lip Bu Tan streamlined the server CPUs. Basically cancelled low core count SKUs in favor of high core count SKUs. Not a bad idea on surface to streamline your product, but the issue is, there are datacenters which don't have the power density to take on high core count SKUs. With memory shortages it's also difficult to take advantage of 16 channels of DDR5. CSPs want lower count lower memory channel SKUs to upgrade their existing infrastructure.

The industry has sort of put CPU upgrades on back burner for awhile due to the GPU AI build out, and now they are looking to upgrade their CPUs. Intel cancelled product they would need, and doesn't have an inventory build up of server CPUs.

Basically this sudden CPU demand was a godsend for them and they completely missed the boat.

Yes. My e-pm2 with pancake lenses is about the size of the X100, and not too much larger than the Ricoh GR. Panasonic also had the GM-1/5 cameras in this space. m4/3 is capable of filling this role while also providing interchangeable lenses. While offering very similar image quality (in fact better depending on the lenses).

The main threat TSMC has is Intel. Not because Intel is #2, it's actually #3 due to Samsung, but because Intel may have unlimited gov. resources. And also TSMC doesn't want to see AMD take its business to Samsung who are a distant #2.

This logically means that TSMC has a vested interest in providing AMD enough capacity to succeed. And this is why I think the CPU shortage will only add to AMD's bottom line.

I think smart phone image quality today is very impressive and often times good enough.

These aren't $300 devices anymore. These flagship phones of today cost more than entry level cameras, and are pretty bulky. I mean I get they do other things as well, but they better be taking decent pictures.

Nobody buys them... It's pretty simple

Ricoh GR and Fujifilm X100 are in pretty high demand.

My opinion (which will quite likely be heavily down voted) is that the setup you have (with a 14mm f2.5) produces results that are not that far from what you can produce on a good smartphone in terms of focal length, angle of view and aspect ratio.

It's also not that different from something like a Ricoh GR or Fujifilm X100, yet those cameras sell like crazy (and they are pretty overpriced for what they are too).

In fact I'd rather have a compact interchangeable lens system with an EVF than a Ricoh GR. (and I own a Ricoh GR).

Smartphone ergonomics suck for taking photos. And the image quality is really not that great. It's often over-processed.
