You lied to me, /g/. You said Chromium was a botnet and slow. I should have made the switch ages ago.

I have no idea what I'm doing edition

I'll start:

I'm in the neofetch config file, but I'm not sure what I'd need to change to have the image I specify in the path actually show up when I call neofetch

# Thumbnail directory
#
//I'm guessing I should probably change something in here:
 Default: '/Users/foobar/Desktop/test.png'
 Values:  'dir'
 thumbnail_dir="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-${HOME}/.cache}/thumbnails/neofetch"

# Crop mode
#
# Default:  'normal'
# Values:   'normal', 'fit', 'fill'
# Flag:     --crop_mode
#
# See this wiki page to learn about the fit and fill options.

Ok time for summary:

Vega is the biggest fundamental architecture change since they switched from Terascale to GCN 1.0
The new NCU means a massive boost to efficiency in the shader core and a much easier ability to fully saturate the GPU with work.
The biggest problem with Fiji(furyX) is that its 4096 shaders didnt mean very much because of large bubbles in the pipeline and large ammounts of shaders idling and doing no work each cycle.
Even with a low Level API like Vulcan which is best case scenario the FuryX is still not running with all cylinders firing because Vulkan only solved the Driver overhead problem. There is still bubbles in the workload because of the fundamental design of the GCN architecture itself.

AMD is switching from standard 4x16-bit blocks of a normal GCN CU(compute unit) to This new design of a variable 8+4+2+2 block and either four of these or a mix of these and standard 16-bit blocks in this new NCU(next compute unit)

They could not Do this in the past because they did not have the technology to build a Hardware Scheduler and Memory Scheduler Complexed enough to run this kind of architecture.

We have test samples of Vega with NCU's disabled and with very low clockspeeds and its beating a 1900mhz overclocked gtx 1080 in DOOM. Now there is a gain from using Vulcan over DX11 and OpenGL for AMD but thats on the Driver Overhead side not on the fundamental shader operations side. IT just means the CPU is feeding draw calls to the GPU at peak efficiency.

Alot of people dismiss the test because its vulcan but they dont know what they are looking at. The Vega sample is running FIJI 1.2 drivers Which means the instructions are running through the Vega NCU's like they are standard fixed 16-bit blocks like you have on a FuryX card.

So you need to look at it from this perspective.

This New architecture is more advanced than Maxwel/Pascal. You are going to see unreal performance from Vega when its finally released. Poor Volta

Let’s get to the big, exciting news first: Pocket is joining forces with Mozilla, the creators of the Firefox browser.

Our announcement post has all the details, but the most important thing to know is that Pocket will be getting better even faster now, as a wholly-owned, independent subsidiary of Mozilla.

This means we’ll be staying in our office, and our name will still be on the wall. Our team isn’t changing and our existing roadmap has been reinforced and is clearer than ever. In fact, we’ve been working on a few major updates that we are really excited to get into your hands in the coming months.

How does Mozilla fit into this equation? They’re adding fuel to our rocketship. We have already worked closely with the Firefox team at Mozilla, and have established a deep trust with their team and vision. They’re going to be a powerful new ally in helping us achieve our mission, and build a better, healthier, and more interesting Internet in the process.

As we continue to grow both as a product and as a company, one thing hasn’t changed: our passion for building a product we love, and the respect we have for you, our users. Without you, Pocket wouldn’t exist, and we are committed to continue making Pocket a unique place where you can spend time with the stories that interest you for many years to come.

---
Looking forward to what’s next!

Nate (Pocket CEO/Founder) and the entire Pocket team

Why did the Ipod become such a meme being an overpriced mediocre mp3 player? Especially since by that time you could get no-brand Chinese players for less than 1/4, or just as good ones for half.

Not only did this POS sell like crazy, it actually made Apple THE status symbol it has become.

> Chauvinistic, racist and homophobic attitudes were far too normal at Uber. Once in a group chat, team members referred to a new Asian American recruit as slanty eye joe.

>He was wearing sweatpants and a wrinkled polo shirt. After casually asking me if I was married or in a relationship, he told me that he liked women in heels. “You know what heels do don’t you?” he smirked while placing his hands on his behind so as to suggest that they make them look bigger. He then patted on my shoulder and squeezed it before walking away. Later, on several occasions, he hinted at having a private dinner with me at a real nice club and once jokingly said that if I played my cards right i’d have a serious date with a rich sugar daddy so i’d never have to work.

>When I voiced my concern, Mike#2 looked at me and said “There is no place for ethics in this business sweetheart. We are not a charity.” I was upset to hear such an insensitive comment. I repeated my point and this time, I raised my voice to show that I was unhappy with his attitude. Visibly angry, Mike #2 covered the microphone of the conference phone, he reached over to hold my hand tightly and told me to stop being a whiny little bitch. Two of the men in the room looked at each other and laughed while the rest of the men, like me, were shocked. For the next few minutes, it seemed as if my brain was paralyzed. I could not remember what happened during the rest of the meeting. All I remember was that when the meeting ended, I took the stairs to a restroom downstairs away from the main office space and locked myself into a bathroom stall and sobbed.

How do you find out what the differences are between various FreeSD snapshot versions? for example:

What are my options for getting a cheap, shitty, but fashionable dumbphone for just talk and text now as a Canadian?

I honestly think they did a shit job on the remake, but I probably would have got it as I'm in the market for a phone and am tired of social media always being at my fingertips.
