I'll take "Data Theft" for $2000

#

I'll take "Hating Your Customers" for $2000

#

I'll take "Creating the most useless AI tools" for $2000

#

Just give me a self-hosted AI tool that lets me generate a 3D model of a 140mm mount to PSU mount

#

Hot take: AI isn't bad. Its modern execution of it is just the worst we've ever seen (giving us useless tools just for data theft)

somewhat bad

personally u belive the correct way to use AI is to ask it for sources

or to help find them

AI is a misnomer. The current forms of it demonstrate no actual intelligence whatsoever.

With the memory shortages, we might be entering an era of "tech depression"

How good is a 13600k and z790

Not great with Intel stuff

It's good (maybe onpar with a 7900X/9900X? Could be wrong). Just update the BIOS so you don't have oxidation issues

Gaming performance difference between a 7600x and a 7900x or 7950x will usually be pretty close. It's just the higher clock really, the extra cores typically do nothing.

nocturne flicker
craggy shoal
#

Just get a chonky CPU that can handle your GPU without any bottlenecks. That's really all you need

heady plinth
#

Yeah, good enough is good enough for cpu. Resolution and games would also be important. A cpu that can keep up in AAA single player games at 4k and a cpu that can get you the most fps in cs2 at 1080p low will be different use cases.

Ram prices crazy

they're going for about 330 on ebay. minus shipping minus 13.5% is 275. So 125 profit if I don't need to buy parts... probably not worth

acoustic palm

you act like that doesnt effect everything else too

#

that also effects prebuilts

outer thunder
#

Ok

acoustic palm
#

you can get a 7700 + 9060xt 16gb for 1k

thatd be like 1.4k+ on a prebuilt

worn wave
#

To a lesser extent but the gpu sales and mobo+cpu bundles more than make up for it

I think 16GB of RAM is good enough especially in this market

There's some bundles that get you a motherboard and 16GB RAM for cheap

someone initially looking for a prebuilt might not want to manually tune ram so might be good to clarify

Go see if your local one has a display model

I still think 16GB of RAM is serviceable enough for people who honestly don't have any other options or if it's way cheaper than 32

Like if you were given free sticks of 16GB

its 150$ btw

1x16 isn’t as bad as you would think

  1. Do not let them transfer/set up anything on your new phone. That’s a fee that they will not tell you about.
  2. Do NOT buy any accessories. They’re overpriced and scams basically. Even the screen protectors.
  3. Upgrade your plan AT HOME, ON YOUR MY VERIZON APP, before going to maximize trade in value. (Better plan = better savings)
  4. Enroll in autopay(it saves you money)
  5. You don’t need the biggest and baddest phone. Go with a 17 or 17 pro. The air and pro max are scams. If you need more storage, get iCloud.
  6. Do not allow them to give you any free add ons. (Apple one in particular, they’ll say it’s free for 6 months, but don’t fall for it)

There’s more I’ll remember

#

Just get the phone, set it up at home, bring the trade in back later.

This Verizon thing has been in the back of my head for months since he showed me his Verizon account and what he was paying

#

Apparently when he got new phones by trade-in, his bill jumped up exceedingly high and that's why he showed it to me

There's a whole bunch of other things that confuse me about the way Verizon works, so I'm gonna need to look into it a whole lot more

Like I know they did it because it was better for the way they animated it, but the face they used looked too young for a post college Peter Parker

Also iirc they added ray tracing and real reflections for the windows and stuff?

Like in PS5 mode you could see real reflections on building windows based on where you were rather than just the generic reflection iirc

I like Tom Holland but I don't think anything was inherently wrong with the original face

there's not even an Avengers Tower location you can climb up? I know it was in the original

I think it was just that they removed the voice line associated with the tower
