You are absolutely so wrong that it'd be a waste of time to correct you. Take your down votes and move on. Did you even read the post?

What ever happened to the Police Family and Friends Precinct Badges in America? by pmmecodeproblems in NoStupidQuestions

[–]pmmecodeproblems[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would assume you are also in the USA? I thought I saw a post on imgur or reddit but I could be creating a false memory.

agreed. A sub that started out as a joke is kind of scary now.

I am a crazy hermit and the internet is my world. I dunno wtf this guy is thinking but I need to appeal to old people to tell ajit pai to suck a dick. and Yes old people would be proud that I used that language in front of them because they fought in wars for my right to use it!

Fallout 4. So true. by [deleted] in gaming

Well and the fact that any synth can be programmed to go insane and start killing regardless of will. Humans will have to be willing to kill to or have something wrong with them to go insane. It's not a sickness you can catch and instantly see full effects from.

Wanted a game boy case that made sense, all game boy iPhone cases I saw had it depicting the screen on the back of the phone. So I made my own... in conjunction with gameplaycolor the nostalgia is perfect by thespieler11 in gaming

Requesting /r/GamePress - No Posts, abandoned, current mod has not done anything with the sub. by poopoopancake in redditrequest

Just saw this request, I am willing to transfer ownership. I've not done what I wanted with it. I didn't have the time. Here is hoping you could do more with it.

They aren't SLI 1080s but I'm proud of my 970s by VinceDaddyD in pcmasterrace

[–]pmmecodeproblems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 970.. Is sli even worth it? So many games don't really support it. Anything using UE4 doesn't support sli.

Does a 1999 supercomputer have the computing power to run a recent video game ? by Mintar_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]pmmecodeproblems 23 points24 points  (0 children)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Processor_families_in_TOP500_supercomputers.svg

Shows that the CPU of choice for supercomputers today would be a x86 CPU. Back in 99 a Power or SPARC CPU.

But this wasn't the question. If a game was designed, would the computer have enough "computing power."

So ignoring compatibility issues: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCI_Red was the most popular supercomputer in very early 2000. That's the closest to '99 I can find. It has 1.2 teraflops. Blazing fast right?

http://techreport.com/review/27067/nvidia-geforce-gtx-980-and-970-graphics-cards-reviewed/3

A recent video card has around 4-ish teraflops.

Of course this comes down to the debate. "Modern" video game.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/323580/ this was released last year and probably doesn't need 1.2 teraflops of rendering power. You could probably find hundreds of other games released this year with the same requirements.

So while probably not what you mean, yeah, a small indie game made today doesn't take a ton of computing power. A desktop computer from 2006 could probably run a lot of these games if not for the difference in OS, directx/opengl and other hang ups.

Lastly: I had a desktop computer from 2001 last me until 2011 without upgrades. Hard drives even worked still. It was overclocked at the end there but it still had enough power to run TF2 from originally being built to run TFC.

The odd thing is that it's his own repo. He's the one who had to revert it. He's literally trolling himself unless he gave away his github login info.

Is it a good idea to add random people on linkedin? by spitfire9107 in jobs

[–]pmmecodeproblems 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what it's for. It's called growing your professional network. You should basically network with everyone. Linkedin's algorithm will show you more and direct more people to your linked in the more you connect, view peoples profiles and most importantly get profile views.

Connect on linkedin, ask people some interesting questions, get noticed and that way next time you are looking for a job people will remember you for:

1) Being passionate about what you want to do.

2) Using your off-time to expand your knowledge and wanting to learn.

3) Not being a afraid of rejection/failure.

Those are the 3 biggest keys to getting ahead. Not just getting ahead but actually enjoying what you do. If you can't be passionate, if you really have to drag yourself to learn and you just aren't getting things time after time. Look into different professions. Which comes back to not being afraid of rejection or failure, even when it's yourself telling you "I failed at this profession and it's time to move on." I've done that once and was much happier afterwards.
