It’s that basic lack of respect that keeps my parents at an arm and a half’s distance. There was nothing I did as a child that the rest of the world didn’t hear about, even if I specifically asked them to keep something quiet. I stopped asking after a while, because I realized that guaranteed that they’d talk about it. Fucking weirdos.

Ditto. 7800X3D is a beast for games and I don’t give half a shit about productivity performance on my gaming machine. I got mine for around $350 early this year and I’m absolutely floored that it’s now over $400. That’s not the direction things are supposed to go.

I think we may be in the last generations of x86’s desktop and laptop dominance. All phones and now all Macs run on ARM-based chips and they do just fine while sipping watts, compared to x86’s two big proponents both having faltering launches on their latest generations with ever higher TDPs where you only get more processing power by using more electrical power.

You had me with absurdist comparative logic, you should have stopped there.

It’s hard to believe that it would have taken 25 years for the many SD card builders out there to figure out that a heat spreader could solve the degradation problems.

I feel like dealing with SD cards’ inevitable demise is more important than armoring them. What good is a stainless SD card that no longer functions after 2 years of use?

But what relevance do they hold for this topic?
