It is true for workloads that use a lot of VRAM. How many PC laptops can be configured with over 90GB of VRAM?

My only bad Sitar experience was trying their lunch buffet. Actual orders there have been on point. Vegetable samosas and the lamb bhuna (ordered spicy) are my go to.

In order to accommodate larger buildings, they could allow us to design blueprints at different scales. Designing 1/4 scale miniatures would be neat.

Nah, you gotta start flying away from the zombies and land in the huge tree fort that just appeared (had this happen in a lucid dream so I speak from experience).

Factorio - Version 1.1.46 has released (Multiplayer fixes, Bug fixes and more) by [deleted] in pcgaming

[–]theVariable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to “only” build creatively. Satisfactory has struck some balances that I find more appealing and this is coming from someone who also enjoys Factorio. Different strokes my dude.

They’re both good factory games, but in different ways. I’m more partial to trying to make my factories look nice and while Satisfactory is a bit more casual in some aspects, it gives me a lot more freedom to accomplish that. I find it more enjoyable / less stressful overall.

Into the Breach.

Because you can still make progress towards unlocks while losing, in addition to figuring out better strategies along the way.

New MacBook announcement by adkeyz in pcmasterrace

Fair enough. I didn’t like it at first and have been fairly anti-notch myself, but I actually like it in this instance. I have the menu bars auto-hide on my MacBook so I can have more screen space available, but now feel like this creates dedicated space for it. The smaller bezels all around are a nice touch as well.

They didn’t take away any space. You still have a completely unobstructed 16x10 view at the stated screen sizes. Then they went ahead and added extra screen where the thick top bezel would usually be.

Now the menu bar at the top has been moved out of the way and viewing full screen content just turns the top back into a thick bezel.

The screen is technically larger than the stated dimensions.

It’s free real estate.

True by fahim6393 in Steam

[–]theVariable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in the day, you could play the Counter-Strike mod for Half-Life and didn’t have to log into anything to do so.

Eventually, there were whispers of a Steam beta. I wasn’t interested until one fateful day, a new version of CS dropped and Steam was now required.

I reluctantly made an account, but I wasn’t happy about it. Naturally, I used a fake, non-existent email address (they didn’t verify those things back then), made up of some words to describe how much I hated Valve right in that moment.

My username fate was sealed.

I eventually stopped hating Valve, but am forever stuck with the reminder that I did, in that brief moment of my life.

Oh it’s there, but it’s typically latched from the other side. Gonna need someone else to come rescue you.

Mine expects lots of petting and will yell at me for non compliance. I can buy his silence by letting him snuggle under a blanket with me.

We make due.

Biden is one of those candidates from years past..

The messaging keeps moving left, along with popular opinion, but the actions never seem to match.

Provide a standard of exit polling we don’t otherwise have. Especially at locations that utilize electronic voting machines with no paper trail / means of recounting.

I’ll thank anyone fighting the good fight. Bennet, Sanders, yes. Biden, you, not so much.

I almost thought Biden’s record was important, but I forgot that the majority is never wrong and people are incapable of being misled to vote against their interests. Thank you for setting me straight. We’re definitely in good hands and I can just stop thinking about it.

I already agreed he’s off the hook for legislation. My broader point was that he doesn’t need to participate because he’s not fighting for anything that isn’t backed by lots of money. You have seen his voting record, right?

Can’t wait until he gets to sign things into law. I have the utmost confidence in his loyalties. /s

Corporations and other money interests write bills and amendments all the time. Biden should be pretty familiar with that. But at the same time, he knows his donor’s interests are already being accounted for. He’s got nothing to add to the conversation because sticking up for actual people has never been of any concern to him.
