I have a relatively small database of 30 millions rows of data

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 4:55 AM

#

small

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 4:55 AM

#

and without optimization a simple select with a limit of 20 and a few where clauses takes about 10-30 seconds to complete

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 4:55 AM

#

oh yeah yamato, what is a good reason to have a home db?

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 4:55 AM

#

started in 1928 with a 25 x 100 ft store
now has 177 stores and 14k employees and the HQ is here

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 4:55 AM

#

with optimizations it takes 0.3 to 0.8 seconds

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 4:55 AM

like i thought a home db is only for storing pirated movies

bruh nimi probably has some defense system designed to kill your hard drives

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 5:01 AM

#

you don't have credentials
you don't know the IP and port
the db is only accessible in that specific VLAN

@subtle hawk so what makes a db a db? like if i made a specialized list of several different values in java or something, would that be a db?

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 5:08 AM

#

Google can answer that question

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:08 AM

#

oof

#

i mean my db CLASS didnt lol

#

anyway @flint bobcat how is VN coming along?

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:11 AM

#

well so far so good

#

i need to rewrite the whole code because i dont know how to efficiently change scenes

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:12 AM

#

whats wrong with it now?

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:12 AM

#

well it needs to have cleaner code

#

and i store the actual text from the scenes in a array

#

its crap

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:13 AM

#

oof need any help?

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:14 AM

#

sure in maybe 2 days, cause really busy with college hw

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:14 AM

#

same, i have 2 data mining classes and they are teaching the same stuff but differently so im dying and confused

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:15 AM

#

i feel like CS professors suck at teaching makinamiheh

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:16 AM

#

mine are good except one is teaching how to code python to do math for you, the other is teaching the actual math behind the statistics and expects you to figure out how to code it in matlab

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:17 AM

#

leaning how a programming language does math for you should be self taught

#

thats what i would think

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:18 AM

#

yeah but this is my first time using python, and programming in python is VASTLY different than in java or c++

#

i did the first project how i usually program and it was like 30-35 lines, the python way of doing it, only importing like one thing, had like 10 lines

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:19 AM

#

using other languages other than c/c++ for math triggers me

#

especially python

#

there is no such thing as data types

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:20 AM

#

well python is running c, so its basically the same math

#

what

#

oh boy there are definitely datatypes

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:20 AM

#

well

#

you can't write shit like string foo = ...

#

or uint_32

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:21 AM

#

well yeah but once you use numpy for arrays and stuff, you cant even do stuff with the SAME datatypes

#

rn i dont have the most up to date version of numpy, so trying to add another row to an array is the hardest thing to figure out

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:23 AM

#

warShrug

#

also i got sad when i learned that java doesnt have pointers

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:23 AM

#

well actually its more like java ALWAYS has pointers and you have no way of controlling them

#

cant remember the exact scenario, but a teacher showed us how java uses pointers

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:24 AM

#

just looked it up, references

#

i see what you mean when you say you cant control them

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:25 AM

#

yeah but i cant remember the example that he used to demonstrate

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:26 AM

#

oh well thats actually true for my 4000 level python class, since comp sci is actually in our college of business instead of engineering

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:26 AM

#

thonk

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:27 AM

#

but i got a business scholarship thing from a rich dude so im not complaining about it

flint bobcat Feb 13, 2019, 5:28 AM

#

makinamiheh

#

all i got was a government grant that cleared my tuition

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 5:29 AM

#

also is it that algorithms professors are bad or that teaching algorithms is just impossible to make fun

#

i can tell you right now that scholarship did not clear tuition, taco bell is my only friend

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 7:45 AM

yeah, there's 512gb

but I think you have to order that one

#

Bangladesh has limited supplies

also I saw 400gb on some stores but not 512

I don't see the point for such big storage options on phones

stone wave Feb 13, 2019, 11:47 AM

#

unless i throw my entire .flac library on my phone, a tv series or go on a long vacation and store videos locally 64gb is enough for me personally

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 11:53 AM

#

Jesus Christ

#

everything is cloud stored for me

#

or on my personal servers

#

so I only keep pics ~~lewds~~ and books on my phone

#

thinking of ditching the 64 GB SD card altogether

stone wave Feb 13, 2019, 12:01 PM

#

Yeah, pictures and video get dumped on the cloud for me as well. All I keep is a few playlists on my phone when in comes to media which tops out at a few gigs.

Books go on my Kindle Paperwhite which has an appallingly low amount of storage but I only store unread books on it so it's fine.

I gotta disagree, Yamato. Local storage at least doesn't depend on some server farm having its shit together + an active internet connection. Encrypt yer drives, and you at least know yer data's always accessible.

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

@mental coyote that's just tinfoil hat

#

and most ppl have internet these days

mental coyote Feb 13, 2019, 3:58 PM

#

How's it tinfoil hat, when you don't need internet to use your own personal (local) storage?

#

The biggest advantage on the cloud side is that yer not fucked if yer house burns down, sure. But, having direct access to yer stuff from a physical location always works, unless that drive/sd card is corrupted or destroyed.

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 4:07 PM

#

access what? music? videos? why should I keep them locally when I can stream them

mental coyote Feb 13, 2019, 4:07 PM

#

Just as an example: I have ~200Gb of files I backup. Music, configs, etc. That's far easier and faster to port over from a detachable drive.

#

Of course, you have yer own server, so for you, streaming prolly does work out.

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 5:10 PM

#

Also streaming Over 200 GB files daily is not exactly affordable for some

#

Not all places are like US v

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 6:44 PM

#

~~i dont think my internet could stream 200 GB in 24 hours~~

#

Well actually i just did the math and it could do like 396 if it stayed at a constant rate of the max ive ever seen it on steam

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 6:46 PM

I have over 400 GB of videos
Anime series
So if I watch all the anime series saved on my drive twice It'll be over 800 GB
Not exactly comfy

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 6:49 PM

I mean i have 800 GB + 0.3 TB of just games on two of my drives

subtle hawk Feb 13, 2019, 6:51 PM

Basically 1.1 TB

severe falcon Feb 13, 2019, 6:51 PM

#

Also back when i had an external HDD for some dumb reason they made it have a sleep timer that could not be adjusted, so it kept falling asleep after 5 mins while i was playing a game dependent on the files in said hard drive

#

It took a solid 3 mins between the time i picked up an audio log in borderlands 2 to when it actually started playing the audio

RTT: 3 mins

Bootcamp makes unnecessary problems if you try it tho

Damn. Woulda thought you could use it for osx/w10, then splice linux.

dusty thorn Feb 16, 2019, 2:30 PM

#

Yeah that‘s what I also tried at first

#

But the limitations are as follows:

you can use bootcamp only on a disk with a single apfs/mac partition
if you already made a bootcamp partition for windows and try to create another one for your linux distro then you won‘t be able to boot into windows anymore

mental coyote Feb 16, 2019, 2:39 PM

Well, that was a lot more pain than I was expecting... Trying to get Windows to use UTC so it plays nice with Linux (I'm dual-booting)

mental coyote Feb 20, 2019, 5:53 AM

#

You use the registry hack?

subtle hawk Feb 20, 2019, 6:05 AM

what does UTC have to do with anything

#

ur dual booting

#

the OSes are independent

subtle hawk Feb 20, 2019, 7:03 AM

#

windows fucks with the system clock

#

its a very annoying 'feature' when you're dualbooting

obtuse dawn Feb 20, 2019, 7:11 AM

#

Yeah, did the registry hack

#

Problem is Linux expects the BIOS clock to be in UTC, while Windows directly sets the BIOS clock to local time by default

#

Something something "we wanted to make it easier for people who are directly setting the clock" or I dunno

#

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20040902-00/?p=37983

The Old New Thing

Raymond Chen - MSFT

Why does Windows keep your BIOS clock on local time?

Even though Windows NT uses UTC internally, the BIOS clock stays on local time. Why is that? There are a few reasons. One is a chain of backwards compatibility. In the early days, people often dual-booted between Windows NT and MS-DOS/Windows 3.1. MS-DOS and Windows 3.1 o...

#

That's apparently some of the logic

subtle hawk Feb 20, 2019, 7:15 AM

ye

obtuse dawn Feb 20, 2019, 7:16 AM

Apparently a very large subset of Windows users were directly setting the system clock in the BIOS

subtle hawk Feb 20, 2019, 7:25 AM

#

what windows are you running again?

#

I have dual booting as well

#

and they never

#

EVER

#

interfered with each other

#

including the system clock

obtuse dawn Feb 20, 2019, 7:37 AM

#

Windows 10 and Ubuntu dual-boot. I think Ubuntu may be doing an ntp query and changing the hardware clock, then Windows expects the hardware clock to be local time and displays it as such.

#

When I'd reboot from Linux back to Windows I had the time displayed on the Windows side as the current UTC time.

subtle hawk Feb 20, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

ye you can fix it on the linux side

#

but there's a few reasons why that isn't recommended

#

mainly to do with logging

or you know

set everything accordingly

Well they did go full in-display so

obtuse dawn Feb 20, 2019, 11:03 PM

Isn't that the one that slides up a bit to reveal the front camera?

Nope

severe falcon Feb 20, 2019, 11:03 PM

Honestly i was thinking of just a small rectangle of a screen on the back

obtuse dawn Feb 20, 2019, 11:03 PM

Or is there just no front camera?

Depends on if that back screen is capacitive or haptic

If it's capacitive a transparent case may not work

That's it

Ive considered the OnePlus 6T or the S9

not the 6T

the light fingerprint sensor is garbage

Yeah iirc it uses a camera

subtle hawk Feb 20, 2019, 11:49 PM

unlike the S10

which uses a ultrasound sensor

slow quiver Feb 20, 2019, 11:50 PM

Yeeah not going there. Ive considered the S8 but the S9 seems to outweigh the s8 by alot

subtle hawk Feb 20, 2019, 11:50 PM

and the whole screen on the back is such a gimmick

slow quiver Feb 20, 2019, 11:50 PM

And extra stuff that the S9+ gives, I dont think for a person like me would consider paying an extra 120$ for it

subtle hawk Feb 20, 2019, 11:50 PM

seriously doe from what it looks

the S10

even the e model

is miles better than the S9

📎 firefox_2019-02-20_20-24-37.png

#

Prior I had the OnePlus 3, and the S9+ is a great upgrade if you can find one at a good price. The S9+ has wireless charging 3.5mm headphone jack and a microSD card slot. And with Samsung's Android 9.0 Pie One UI it feels less bloated and closer to stock Android IMO.

I have the Note9 so I'll wait for Note10

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 4:39 AM

I normally wait 2+ years to upgrade but I realized I could get more in trade-in value than I paid for my phone.

And they throw in their wireless earbuds if you preorder from Samsung, and those go for $130. warShrug

tame topaz Feb 21, 2019, 11:18 AM

The Fold's stylized notch looks pretty damn cool tbh

Opinion on it as a whole is still pretty mixed however

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 2:23 PM

#

I will never approve of oneplus

#

after the 2nd one

tame topaz Feb 21, 2019, 2:33 PM

#

Why

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

it's not following the same phylosophy as the first one

#

it's just another flagship

#

with Samsung I have knox to secure the env

#

with Google/Android One I have the compatibility and the native experience

#

with Asus I have balls to the walls performance

#

yeah

#

I would've got pocophone if waited a bit longer

#

but emergency reasons being emergency reasons

#

@ruby girder flagships aren't overpriced if you need those unique features

#

that's how their business model works

#

if you want specific top end features, pay up

#

for the average joe a mid low end phone is more than enough

#

it's the same in the laptop industry

#

if you want specific stuff like 4K touchscreen or NVMe or enterprise hardware

#

pay up

#

I've had the A1 for 1.5 years

#

and it's more than plenty for most ppl

#

but I find the Note 9 more suitable for my use

#

modularizing laptops will never happen

#

it's not a matter of demand

#

it's a matter of R&D

#

and size constraints

#

unless you want a 5 KG predator 21X type laptop then everything has to be soldered on to fit in the thin chassis

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:01 PM

#

I've said that for years, Saya.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:04 PM

as my engineer friend says

"you all think like consumers"

"we have to think as a business"

phones though they don't seem to last as long for me

It's not tinfoil if it's arguably true.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:07 PM

my only complaint is the display sometimes break and I had to smack it like an old analog TV

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:10 PM

even doe it's years old

I would be really pissed with it

the damn thing is slow as hell in anything but basic tasks and web browsing

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:11 PM

My dad got an iPhone 5s... it can't use the Uber app and he's run out of space so he can't install new apps on it. I just told him to get a new phone.

why should he

if he's satisfied

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:11 PM

He's not.

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:11 PM

#

Frankly, if you know what yer doing, you can run some shit for 3+ years easily.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:11 PM

#

yeah

#

that's why I said obsolescence is a muddy subject

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

I think it we're at that point where the HW is good enough for most casual users without having to upgrade as often.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

to some one small glitch in performance is already a reason to get the next gen flagship

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

It is. But what else can we call incremental increases in cpu performance? Cause that does seem a lot like a way to get you to consume more.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

and social status

#

you don't have to

#

I don't see people running out to buy the latest Xeon Platinums

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

Not everyone's as savvy, and we all know this.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:14 PM

or the latest Epycs

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:14 PM

#

Mobile devices, I feel are partially just another form of bling to some people in a manner of speaking.

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:14 PM

Prolly how the term you don't want mentioned got started.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:14 PM

mobile devices became a part of us

aren't those server cpus Thonk

#

they are

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:14 PM

Hell. Didn't drop my old Carrizo lappy till Ryzens hit the market, tbh. Didn't feel the urge, until then.

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:14 PM

Are they good or are Xeons still king?

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:14 PM

#

these things are designed to be on 24/7 for years

the best in all vlasses

#

Epycs abd Xeons are on p much equal ground

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:15 PM

#

Nice, competition is good.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:15 PM

#

because upgrading can get very costly in that field

#

nobody puts a gun to your head tell you to go buy the new galaxy or iPhone

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:15 PM

#

Competition keeps all involved sides on point. This is never bad from the consumer end.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:16 PM

#

so to speak

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:16 PM

#

Oh yeah, having to replace 2 dozen CPUs at like 5 grand a pop or a lot more.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:16 PM

#

10k actually

#

25k for the custom made ones

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:17 PM

#

And that's why you wouldn't jump for joy over another 2 or 300 mhz increase.

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:18 PM

#

At least the more casual consumer can get away with a longer upgrade cycle as long as they're not doing content creation or high end gaming sort of stuff.

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:18 PM

#

True

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:18 PM

#

but to consumers that is more than enough to warrant upgrade and yell obsolescence

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:18 PM

#

We should say to "less informed" consumers. Closer to the truth, imho.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:19 PM

#

when we all know they just want the good stuff for cheap

#

smugBucky

severe falcon Feb 21, 2019, 3:19 PM

Good stuff for cheap at the computer section of goodwill

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:19 PM

There is good stuff for cheap IMO but they have look for it, at least when it comes to phones.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:19 PM

#

yes

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:20 PM

#

An Ivy Bridge is still enough for non-gaming, non-content creation sort of stuff.

severe falcon Feb 21, 2019, 3:20 PM

#

If i could daisy chain VGA monitors id look like Lain with 9 cheap square monitors

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:21 PM

#

I still have a square display, some 1600x1200 deal, used it for a while cause a widescreen would have been too wide.

severe falcon Feb 21, 2019, 3:22 PM

#

I have like a 19" 1600x900 and a 26" 1366x768

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:22 PM

#

I'm not complaining about prices because it's my own decision to buy the top end hardware so I can be in the top 99% in 3DMark

#

still, I like how simple VGA is and how it gets difficult when LCD displays appear

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:23 PM

#

That would be the key point, Yamato.

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:23 PM

#

I feel for the folks that bought cards when the prices were inflated.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:23 PM

#

because you have to determine the resolution by purely checking sync signals and when the active pixels start

#

I did

#

and I have no regrets

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:23 PM

#

I got my 1080 just before they went higher than MSRP

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:23 PM

#

which can get really complex

#

350€ for a 1060 6GB

#

speaking of graphics card

#

then sniped a 1080 Ti for 400€

#

sandyMeme

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:24 PM

#

nice

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:25 PM

#

but I still use the 2080 Ti if I want to make someone cry in benchmarks

#

I originally planned to get GTX 1070 for a new build but the stores I went don't have them on the shelf

#

especially in the new DLSS benchmark

#

so I'm not sure if want to invest $100 more and get Vega 64 instead

#

AMD graphics drivers are most of the time inferior than Nvidia's

#

hm yeah

#

in terms of gaming that is

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:26 PM

#

Work better on linux, tho. Generally.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:26 PM

#

I don't game that much though

#

on Linux it's hit or miss

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:26 PM

#

I bought a G-Sync display so I'm locked in.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:26 PM

#

~~don't u dare to mention that meme~~

#

I wanted my new build for both content creation and gaming

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:27 PM

#

Couldn't find an Adaptive Sync display that met my requirements at the price point I wanted.

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:27 PM

#

So. Why is G-Sync a meme ... lack of proper support?

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:27 PM

#

for me GSync was cheaper than freesync

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:27 PM

#

The woes of UWQHD, small selection.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:27 PM

#

no

#

it's because gsync takes a tax and has strict requirements

#

my dad would eventually pay it for me though (if my grades are good enough) but I just wanted to keep it within reasonable price

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

That's annoying.

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

very strict

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

I wanted UWQHD, IPS, 100hz+ for under $900 and some how all I could find was GSync displays.

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

Are we talking strict like optane, here?

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:29 PM

#

strict as it need to support this EXACT freq range minimum, this minimum color accuracy, etc

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:29 PM

#

Now that does sound like a pain in the dick

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:29 PM

#

and needs the gsync driver controller

#

but hey

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:30 PM

#

I remember people were riding Nvidia's ass for the longest time until they decided to open support for Adaptive Sync

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:30 PM

#

the gsync monitors look rlly good

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:30 PM

#

they do

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:30 PM

#

yeah

#

and never suffer from cheapskate scams like freesync

stone wave Feb 21, 2019, 3:31 PM

#

mine is great the only downside is my particular one doesnt have gamma controls

mental coyote Feb 21, 2019, 3:31 PM

#

Here I thought gamma was pretty basic, anymore

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:34 PM

#

hm I should change the card back to nvidia

#

is RTX series good or should I stay with GTX

#

oh nvm I remembered my parts list wrong

#

I already had RTX2060 for graphics card

severe falcon Feb 21, 2019, 3:40 PM

talking about these fancy monitors

It like blurs all the pixels around it

subtle hawk Feb 21, 2019, 3:42 PM

and yeah 1080p 60Hz screens are like $100 nowadays

they're probably $30 used if you're in the US and got a thrift store with monitors

Also idk if my goodwill has monitors that good

colleges occasionally sell off their old equipment, you can try asking if they have a warehouse that sells off their surplus

hey im thinking about starting developing games by myself
i have no prior code experience other than a bit of pascal back in middle school
right now im considering on the two best engines which is unity and unreal
which should i choose?

subtle hawk Feb 22, 2019, 4:18 PM

unity is a decent engine

but calling something best in programming is wrong

there's only bad stuff and the right tool for the right job

severe falcon Feb 22, 2019, 5:01 PM

@grand hare try looking at both and the tutorials of both, but id steer clear of most youtube vids and try to find written tutorials, i did that with unreal and found some of the best tutorials for some really cool stuff. Idk about unity but unreal has some excellent documentation for it

#

Though im almost certain that unity is gonna be the best choice for 2d stuff

1.55 is the ceiling when it comes to how much volts I can push into it

unless I turn on LN2 mode

then I can go up to 4.2 V I think?

Wow.

Might as well just go with a bog-standard 3.9 OC and see what happens.

Don't think I'll go much further than that.

Spread the thermal paste with a freaking toothpick lol

subtle hawk Feb 22, 2019, 5:39 PM

I just dropped the usual amount and clamped it down

tame topaz Feb 22, 2019, 5:39 PM

The thermal paste that came with the heatsink was in a packet. Pretty hard to apply.

Didn't have enough budget to buy external thermal paste. I would if I could.

Uhh I‘m not that deep into linux and it‘s distros yet so I can‘t really tell

subtle hawk Feb 23, 2019, 1:02 AM

then you probably should be using ubuntu

severe falcon Feb 24, 2019, 1:26 AM

When you accidently OC your GPU so hard that it turns into a singularity where the laws of physics dont apply

Either that or you OC it so hard that it overflowed its temp value to the negatives

subtle hawk Feb 24, 2019, 2:48 AM

@severe falcon it's hard though

#

Some systems are very complex that accurate emulation would take lots of resources

#

For example, N64, although having the same CPU architecture as PSX, still be barely accurately emulated due to its not well documented chips

#

Or why Amiga takes more resources to emulate than the rest of m68k home computers and consoles
