  • The whole point of the conversation is that the other platforms arent doing any work for the consumer.

    To this day, epic doesnt even launch on linux officially, and requires a 3rd party launcher to even play its games. Epics first party games are on the list of games that dont work on linux.

    There’s clearly one company who puts more effort onto the consumer front than the other. Epic doesnt even need to make a custom OS like valve does, it just needs to get their own launcher working, and their own games working, which they dont and refuse to.

    To say that Epic is doing better for the consumer is disingenuous (however it does better for the developer though)

    The lower point of Fahrenheight is near the freezing point of brine (salt water) which freezes at -6 F (-21 C).

    It was designed around what the coldest day at the time of its invention could get and the 100F was marked around how hot the hottest day of the year at the timr would get. Hence its choice to scale 0-100 to local weather vs celcius’ choice to use kelvin and offset it to standardize it to pure water.




  • i mean users are free to use 3rd party start bars to have a windows 7 style start bar. The thing I always find odd is that if you opt for the 3rd party option, your experience with windows is mostly consistent.

    One of the biggest features Windows gives users is the ability to modify stuff and people choose not to use it. It’s like anyone who outright chooses to use IE/Spartan/Edge and complain about it instead of just switching to a 3rd party option.

    Probably took a while unless trained speed eater.

    I personally attempted the 100 nugget challenge and the bottleneck for me actually wasn’t getting full, it was that your jaw hurts a lot chewing through a shit ton of nuggets. I couldnt even imagine doing over 4x that amount in a sitting





  • How I see it, its more that if you use multi CCD cpus, you have to manage the CPU manually as some games prefer cache, some games prefer clockspeed, and the OS picks the wrong one at times (usually the clock speed) as the OS assumes the higher clock speed = faster. As the thread director works correctly with Intel chips for the most part (where the e cores have a lower clock) so the e cores are often not selected for performance.

    The solution AMD will have to transition to is to exchange the other CCD for the core count focused design (e.g Zen 4 vs Zen 4c) which would be clocked lower to receive similar benefits from the current itteration of thread director.


  • The shield is one of the best android boxes on the market, as one of its major features is upscaling videos using its notibly faster gpu compared to standard android boxes. With support for a wide amount of surround sound options, it is still virtually the best android streaming box for videos and games.

    The shield tv was such a dominant amdroid box that nvidia fundamentally didnt change its soc simce 2015, outside of the die shrink from 20nm to 16nm that allowed for the upscale feature in the 2019 model and the better battery life in newer switches.
