Have you seen the new JWST image, of the pulsating stars
Yes. Though it's insane. You can see how fast the stars are rotating against one another by the pulsating rings that eject material into space all around them
At periastron, their powerful stellar winds collide, creating shocks and a giant puff of dust that expands outwards, creating a dust shell. The stars orbit each other once every 7.94 years, which means each new shell is created 7.94 years after the last one.
I wonder what the infrared shots look like

Respawn is doing fine and the devs working on Dead Space did great with Star Wars Squadrons, plus they're massive fans of the original game and have been posting update videos on the game for like a year. And they've been listening to fan feedback to the videos and adjusting things accordingly

The mining era and GPU shortage might be over, but scalpers are still making chaos in the GPU market. Scalpers have gone to town on Nvidia's GeForce RTX 4090, selling cards at well over MSRP on eBay(opens in new tab) — with some cards priced at $4000 and higher.
scalpers are always in the problem
being it consoles, gpus or tvs
people aren't supposed to give in to these people
But what's especially crazy is that many of the RTX 4090 listings are pre-order listings. This means the seller doesn't physically have the GPU
lmao, even worse
It seems that i9-13900KF processor has a peak all-core frequency of 5.50 GHz at a 292W CPU package power and at up to 85 degrees Celsius when working on MSI's Z690 Unify-X motherboard, cooled using Arctic's LiquidFreezer II 360 all-in-one cooler.
The CPU can also seemingly hit a 5.70 GHz – 5.80 GHz turbo clock, which is in line with leaked specification of the part. Meanwhile, the enthusiast increased Intel's load line calibration by +25 mV for extra stability.
frozen carbon
good thing my next (eventually) card will likely be a 3090. by when I get it, prices of that will be reasonable 😛
so here we had the usual problem with ps5 consoles being delivered, but with the added bonus that shipments would come to stores like 'here's 50 for this city of a few million people' and the employees of that chain in the central store would just redirect the consoles to their friends
complete crap
finite hazel
yeah
very unfair
i'm carefully considering my options
i just hope intel doesn't disappoint on the higher end gpus

All GPU sellers had to do was use a 'pre-order' system, 1per customer, guarantee delivery

Problem wasn't demand, it was scalpers just buying all of it.
It's always demand.
This might sound harsh, but what idiot thinks $1000 for a top-of-line GPU is fair price?
Especially when they are buying!
restive current
If you're buying, you're supposed to make the prices drive as low as possible to $0.
You're not supposed to agree on a 'reasonable' price and buy every piece of shit the companies push out.
You're the buyer...learning to vote with your wallet is your job, not the scalpers', not the companies'.
And people vote with their wallet...by actually paying the price rather than just not buying.
And that's why...the scalpers are the good guys. They rip off the people who're asking to get ripped off.

If scalpers buy all the demand, directly driving up prices, people who wanted to buy at reasonable prices can't/don't buy them. People forced to buy cards (ie job related/replacement) are getting screwed over.
And some people just pay whatever. Never say scalpers are the good guys, they're part of the problem that the prices and demand are so high. Remove scalpers and your demand will take a dive
fallen notch
I'd say remove scalpers and your demand may rise. Less-crazy prices are likely to result in more buyers.

But no one's forced to buy cards in the first place. You can game on iGPUs, computers run completely fine on iGPUs and industrial use will find its own way. People are willing to pay scalper prices, people actually think that $1000 is a valid price for a GPU instead of pay as less as possible and learning to live without it if their price isn't matched.
People laugh at me when I say that everything should be $10...most often comes up in GPU prices. But I don't buy a GPU. Will GPUs ever get down to $10? Not likely. Am I forced to buy one? No. Does that impact my game performance? Yes. Can I live with it? If I can't, that's on me. I can't blame scalpers for pushing the price to ridiculous levels; I just don't buy them, so I'm not affected. And unless, as a buyer, the price goes down to my desired point, I will never fund the industry. It's not that difficult.
Scalpers are a symptom, not a cause.

restive current
If scalpers buy all the demand, directly driving up prices, people who wanted to...
Also, I was talking about GPUs yesterday:
5274 USD. That price isn't because of scalpers. It's because people think that something not even worth worth $5 is more than that. People...who buy...the consumers...are setting this price because they aren't willing to live without it. No one's asking people to buy it for more than $5 or $10 or $100 or whatever their price is...but it's always the consumers who're willing to get ripped off and for that...yes, this price is valid. Either you stop buying a company's product and force them to lower prices...or you get ripped off. Simple as that.

Gud song
Ya know what stuck out to me about that album. When it first came out, Linkin Park was almost certainly spitting in the face of music executives that were trying to encourage musicians to release albums with only one or two hits tops so that the execs could capitalize on CD sales, slotting a few hits per album. Meaning a band could shit a loaf of music and sing two good songs, scoring big on the two when the CDs sold full price.
It was not long after Hybrid Theory that Napster, under the name Rhapsody exploded in popularity as a service that let people buy only the songs that they wanted and starting the train that would destroy the business model these very execs used to ruin the industry.
Most of the songs on the Hybrid Theory album at one point or another became hits.

proof nintendo doesn't care about their community:
- they ban fan games
- they charge you for an expansion pack and then add the old games people actually care about at the cost of another more expensive expansion pack
- they flood the nintendo e-shop with m-rated anime games because japanese
- games that are easily considered mobile games always cost at least $1 or more because nintendo wants to milk their community dry of every last penny and can't be just fucking generous enough to have those $0.01-$5.00 games be free as well

I don't even give a fuck about the argument that they wanted to make sure it was blah blah blah. They lied to their customers repeatedly and excessively under estimated the time it would take to finish the project. Based on those two things alone, I suspect they probably shit on their staff too

It's not out yet, it comes out next week. They waited til today to announce that it's horribly optimized, and now people are going nuts

Right now it feels like Gotham Knights is like a subway sandwich coming from a minimum wage "sandwich expert" that just had a breakup with their girlfriend. Ya know they did something....everything is fucking sus.

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/12gb-4080-unlaunch/
This is a good thing. Spec wise, that card was ripped apart in reviews. Relatively speaking, people would buy the 12gb thinking they were getting a 4080 equivalent and soon learn it didn't even compare to the other 4080 with almost 30 percent more in its performance out of the box.
The 12gig 4080 relative to the 16gig 4080 was on par with comparing a 2070 to a 2080 or a 3070 to a 3080 and this flies in the face of their current standard naming convention. Their naming convention for GPU has been a thing they've been getting mocked for, for years

I'd rather they release a 4070 that used to be the 12gig 4080 than release a 4080 12gig that operated like a 4070 ought to.

What we'll end up seeing is a military use to justify the cost as innovation is expensive and science gives up its morality if it's impossible to pursue due to cost.
restive current
Science has no morality.
dry copper
Better to exist in a single use scenario than never see the light of day
dry copper
Science has no morality.
I'm not even going to touch that landmine. Wars have been fought over the interpretation of certain sciences and it is of no consequence to argue to legitimacy of one science over another on the meritless argument that science does not care about the results because science is not a person - I did not imply that a subject in itself has morals, but rather that its following and the methods by which it is pursued can absolutely be directed under moral guidelines.
restive current
...but rather that its following and the methods by which it is pursued can absolutely be directed under moral guidelines
I guess that part's relative, sure. 👍
dry copper
This is why often human experimentation is not treated as a subject of scientific merit, but as to whether it is ethical and or moral.
That said, I'd rather not get into the thick of science against its moral quagmires.
Historically speaking some of the largest growth periods of scientific study in medicine were due in large part to questionable behavior
restive current
Shouldn't scientific merit be all that matters when it comes to...IDK...science?
dry copper
Science provides a means to information. Information can be manipulated.
I don't agree that there is merit to being inhuman for the progress of scientific inquirey
restive current
Hmm...science is about discovery. Means shouldn't get in the way of discovery...but again, like I said, it's relative, so to each their own.
dry copper
Yes....that is why people go to war over the interpretations.
It only takes a spark amongst the inflammatory gas of incentives.
restive current
That's true.
Some of it, though, I find hypocritical. Like experiments on animals for medicine are somehow ethical when those medicines are made for human consumption...
Though I guess everyone hates it when they're facing their own methods.
