Those genres aren’t really known for having brutal performance requirements. You have to play the bleeding edge stuff that adds prototype graphics postprocessing in their ultra or optional settings.

When you compare non RT performance the frame delta is tiny. When you compare RT it’s a lot bigger. I think most of the RT implementations are very flawed today and that it’s largely snake oil so far, but some people are obsessed.

I will say you can probably undervolt / underclock / power throttle that 4090 and get great frames per watt.

Yeah I started there myself but quickly migrated. Tried to find an instance that wasn’t filled with ideological rat poison and also wasn’t the mass appeal one.

I don’t think I see a lot of posts on lemm.ee though, but I think it’s fine?

I hate fuckerberg but there’s a possibility he’s playing 3d chess this time.

The amount of backlash and outrage that letting all the bullshit through because politicians are spewing it and being cheered might cause the politicians doing it to have to change. Generally no one wants the new policy.

They clamor for “free speech” but once they see how it devolves the public sentiment will say “OH GOD WE TAKE IT BACK”

The 4090 basically never went for MSRP until Q4 2024… and now it’s OOS everywhere.

nobody scalped the 4080 because it was shit price/perf. 75% of the price of a 4090 too… so why not just pay the extra 25% and get the best?

the 4070ti (aka base 4080) was too pricey to scalp given that once you start cranking up the price then why not pay the scalper fee for a 4090.

Things below that are not scalp worthy.

The far cry benchmark is the most telling. Looks like it’s around a 15% uplift based on that.

He wants him to piss on him. That’s been the fetish right?

Getting everyone to be involved and knowledgeable about absolutely everything and to fight to make things right is beyond the capabilities of current humans. The more I know the more I understand I don’t know a lot about so many things beyond what i’ve experienced. Ignorance drives so many reactions (including the personal attacks from my comments here.)

I have met many individuals in this world who get very, very angry that someone else is doing x, y, or z - even if it has zero impact on them. Some of the reactions to my comments here about a very logical challenge that could have solutions with technology are attacked with illogical non-arguments and are a perfect example of how impossible it is to get humans to think critically about things when they have their own biases.

In what way does this graph say humans are not corrupt and taking advantage?

Even under communism the 1% had 4% of assets, that’s not 1% of assets like true communism should be. That in and of itself proves corruption to me. The fact that the USSR fell and a handful of 1%ers got the majority of industries for pennies on the dollar is egregious corruption. None of this is a criticism of communism. This is criticizing the actions of individuals who decided to be corrupt.

It’s just human nature. Some people call it “enlightened self interest” others call it nepotism, some call it survival of the fittest. Some call it gaming the system. In all cases it’s the same problem. Sometimes things can go well for a while but on a scale of even just a hundred years when an organization has more than a couple hundred people it simply goes sideways.

Based on your comment history and how negative you are about absolutely everything… have you looked in the mirror lately?

Also keep in mind that I have simply made a hypothesis that humans are incapable of not being corrupt in organizations at scale. How in the fuck is that any one political leaning? The system itself is irrelevant. Even in communes where everyone “shares equally” there’s usually someone in leadership getting special exemptions and special treatment.

I’d love one, I don’t think humans are capable.

In very small organization sizes it’s possible but as people come and go eventually someone will get control to make decisions that put their interests or their connections interests ahead of the masses.

You’re wrong.

I think the flaw is human nature. All governments and organizations are corrupt. All implementations are always twisted to suit the greed of individuals.

It’s entirely possible to create policy and enforcement mechanisms that would mitigate or eliminate excessive greed but nobody with anything votes for it because they’ll lose out on their own personal greed by their measure. They want that chance to fleece the masses even if they aren’t in the club that’s already doing it.

Blame humans.

Lemmy.world is just more popular than other lemmy instances. At least it’s not threads.

More money than sense.

Shit like this is way more common than you realize. Here where I am near Boston there are countless people who come into all manner of fast food places to just pick up food to deliver to people. Oftentimes there are more delivery drivers picking things up than in person orders. It’s wild. They usually double park with their hazards on or slide into a handicap spot to boot, and they’ll absolutely bypass the line and ask the workers even though there’s a long queue ahead of them.

Meanwhile everyone says they can’t afford to save up for housing and that they don’t make enough money to do anything… and then they’ll go grab their delivery with a 30% upcharge and a tip on top from outside where a driver dropped it off.

The pandemic escalated this trend from an uncommon oddity with a decent price (because pre-pandemic it was largely VC subsidized) but around 2021 the fees were cranked up to 11 and payments to drivers went through the floor.

the home despot or blowes probably.

That’s not how it works. The CEO is so wealthy that the insurance companies treat them for free because of all the business they bring in from enrolling their workers.

We don’t hear stories about the soft privileges of being in a position of power very often but they tend to be immense. We’re just not in the club so we would never know.

I’ve been paying $30/year for like a decade now. Totally worth it.

They want them to breed.

They think blocking porn sites one by one is going to stop guys from getting access to porn. Haven’t they heard of bit torrent? tor? proxies and vpns? What are they going to do about foreign sites and sites that have mixed content like reddit?

Ridiculous law.

Hey, he’s a billionaire. Being gay is only illegal if you’re poor like everything else.

This is one of those open and shut FMLA violations that even shitty companies can’t get away with though and they know it.

The lady will be canned one way or another once they get back to the office because they violated some bullshit policy about how you can’t talk to the press or some bullshit. Will probably take a couple months and involve a PIP for “poor performance”
