>most reviewers benchmark CPUs with gaymez
>everyone is suddenly acting surprised that CPUs with more cores and lower clocks perform worse than CPUs with less cores and higher clocks in games which aren't properly multithreaded

I really don't get the point of using gaymez for benchmarking since they can't even fully utilize CPUs. Every fag out there is going "dude ryzen DOA" lmao since it gets BTFO in gaymez, by that logic the whole X99 lineup is trash too since they aren't as good as quad cores in gaymez. Gaymurfaggots were a mistake.

>inb4 ayymd advertised them to gaymurs in the first place
Probably to test the microcode and prepare for the release of naples.

Daily reminder that you aren't allowed an opinion on sweet-spot gaming/workstation CPUs if you don't buy 4core/8thread chips. They are consistently only marginally worse than -Extreme-edition CPUs of Intel that cost kazillions more, they are considerably better than 4core/4thread chips/they demolish 2core/4thread CPUs for those tasks in most tests, and if you believe the 1% of the time you spend on your Workstation to render on Photoshop and not the 99% of the time to actually create warrants a 99core CPU you are seriously deluded and should not speak of CPUs again because everyone and their mother knows by now most of the parallelism nowadays is done on GPUs anyway which are the parallel machines on your system and CPUs will never stop being good mainly at the serial/non-parallel jobs and that notion not only may not diminish as you are mislead to believe but it may become even stronger now with Vulkan and other GPU oriented APIs that offload even more CPU stuff onto GPUs.

AMD fuck up with not promoting first thing the 4core/8thread CPUs too like Intel does. Intel knows how to shill by releasing first thing the 4core/8thread CPUs by binning them well, shilling with them first thing and passing them first thing to the reviewers. The Gamers and Workstation users are going to promote you for free, not a bunch of 60 year old no-lifers with a server farm, even if they pay more per chip.

Fuck all of them though. They are cartels that hog the patents. NVIDIA and AMD are a cartel of patents at GPUs and AMD and Intel a cartel at CPUs. Therefore AMD is the biggest patent troll of all.

Are there any manufacturers that actually design their laptops to last and run well long term?

My last two laptops have been ASUS, but both have had major HDD or MB within two years... Is that just really bad luck, or are they actually fitting inferior parts?

What brands can I expect to run well for a minimum of 4 years?

I am currently learning programming.
I do not touch type. I am able to type at ~40 WPM.
Should I learn to touch type? Or is it not worth the effort?

Is there any way to add condition-like code to an RSS, specifically Craigslist? I want to be able for instance if the title is "30 books for $20" to do some small calculations of quantity / price relationships, but I can't figure out how I should go about it.

Sorry if this is the wrong board, but I'm sure we can all figure this out.

So I was on omegle and the stranger just started spamming some binary and d/c'd (see pic).

I was curious so I checked it out, and it brought me to some google docs message with more binary on it.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NsaHyD0ITQ6NbpUQPlsHSphNoQy1nOYzfWyrIcpiEog/edit

They call themselves Illumination and blah blah blah. I'm more curious to see if this is just some troll or if some other person is actually trying to make something of this. I'm retarded and it's late so I never got past the first clue, which reads

"WARNING: The path to illumination is long and spreads across the Globe, it will challenge your intelligence and physical limits. It was created to filter out only the most intelligent and capable members of society to join us in our search for knowledge.

You will receive one message to start you on your way, that 'clue' will lead you to another clue, and so on. It is a long taxing trail, but Illumination lies at the end

First Message:

======================
"The Opal holds the key to the hidden door.
Kneel at the feet of the Blind Angel & follow the Stones of Blood.
Raise your eyes & gaze upon the Second Clue."
======================

We await you at the end of your journey.

Cerca Trova, Seek and Find"

Cerca trova is a reference to the The Battle of Marciano painting, but I havent really checked it out.

I would google this to see if it's a known troll but illumination is too broad to get any useful results.

I'm looking to get into video editing as an extension of my photography.

I know of Vegas and Premiere, I had used Vegas and Acid many, many moons ago before Sony ownership. I'm also well entrenched in the Adobe CC environment however...


1.) What options are currently out there?

Preferably open source. I like open source in general and until I am competent I don't really want to pay money for a program I can't fully utilize but the best tool for the job is the best tool for the job.


2.) Can any of the programs you might recommend be accelerated with a GPU?

I see that Nvidia can be utilized in Premier but does anyone support something like the RX480?

how the HECK do interrupts work. shouldn't they halve the efficiency of any given program? since it has to check if the interrupt is active on every cycle. this isn't covered in the k&r book
