Because you're a nigger and they knew you'd want one lol

Beautiful couple.

Back to the point. Maybe there still aren't any mobile Ryzen-based CPUs released yet?

"No."

>>59125064
Fpbp.

check out the asus mg278qe or something, panel may have some bleed depending on ur luck, but it's super nice for the price.

>>59124823

Looks nice, but I'd be paying for Freesync and I have an Nvidia card.

Checked the BenQ GW2765HT, an average of 34ms of input lag.

That's awful, the Qnix had 1-3 at 60hz.

the resolution is garbage, dont even bother that shit is not worth it anymore

Can you recommend an alternative?

>wccftech
How many times do we have to go over this? Poojet tech is not a credible source. They were the main reason people were expecting the rx480 to be a gtx980 for $200.

Just fucking wait until the NDA is lifted for Ryzen reviews.

>>59124210
ill never visit wccftech as long as i live. the shilling they receive here is incredible

>>59124210
Failing Wccftech is FAKE NEWS! Sad!

>gave a beleaguered AMD a much-needed cash injection.
I'm pretty sure that fine was meant to go to the EU for subsidized laptops.
And I'm certain it hasn't been payed.

>>59123827
>While the money helped AMD's cashflow in 2009 the damage to the business
Intel never paid it, there was even an appeal in mid 2016

Top comment:

>It's upsetting to have to say, but should be said. As an IT Director I have already been approached by an Intel representative to discuss the "special promotions" and "Incentive rebates" that they are willing to offer me for purchasing exclusively Intel powered servers. I was not well received when I explained that I would not be purchasing anything until I see the benchmarks of the new Ryzen (naples) core and compare the cost-to-performance ratio. It was at that point they made it very clear that they would go to great lengths from a financial standpoint to incentivize me to NOT purchase AMD chips.

>These are the tactics that were used back in the day that AMD had feared would be used again. Intel offered "loyalty rebates" and other clever promotions to hide the fact that they were paying customers to lock out the competition. I sincerely hope that other IT Directors and all in IT in general do what's best for the industry and choose based off of what's best for the consumer and their environment. The rebates are nice and all, but if we continue to hurt AMD for a small rebate, we destroy AMD's ability to compete and enable Intel to continue their "Tick-Tock" releases and oppressive pricing.

>Be aware folks, Intel is scared and is already looking to use their weight and $'s to NOT out innovate, but to obstruct competitions ability to enter the marketplace. Why else would they be contacting and attempting to "Incentivize" customers well before the launch of AMD's server chips in Q2-Q3?

>Sorry for the rant, but these past few years from Intel have been terrible from a pricing and tech innovation standpoint. I would hate to see AMD get the shaft after building such a great product over the last 5 years with the help of Jim Keller and AMD architect Mike Clark. They did such a great job turning the CPU division around it should have the ability to be judged on its own merits and not locked out by Intel to prolong the CPU stagnation in the market.

vpn won't fix anything. the data packets are still going through the isp and they a are counting those. so you'll go over the limit anyways. only fix is to get your own connection through a different service.

>>59124012
Alright. Thank you anyways.

I still have mine. I have to waste four AA batteries just to record the full hour, and copying the files takes half a day. Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to use that male USB dick that feels like it's going to break every time you use it by either leveling it with magazines or forcing on a tight female to male cable. Why can't it just be a female mini or micro port? It's like what were they thinking!?

To make things worse mine has had a dead pixel since day one.

I remember I got one when I was 12 and used it to make movie projects for school.

Found it a couple months ago and it had some old videos on it. Got a pretty huge nostalgia rush.

>>59123701
Sure, I can do it in a couple of lines:

Dim CMD
CMD = CreateObject("wscript.shell")
CMD.run("git pull https://github.com/torvalds/linux.git")

Boom. Now you have the linux kernel, rewritten using visual basic.

nobody actually gives a shit about fanboy faggotry.

Almost feel sorry for anyone that bought a 7700k at launch, everyone told them to wait for ryzen even if they planed still going Intel for their response.....but bing that stupid is what makes then Intel fanboys to start within

First price cut and now if the Core i7-7740K and i5-7640K ( with HY ) up being legit literal watch

A wild AMD shill has appeared!

>>59123482
I imagine the answers to most of your questions is because it's all still in the research phase. China, according to ACM, is going fucking hard with quantum technologies and supercomputers in general. It seems like it would be a very exciting time to be a scientist/engineer there.
That's about all I can contribute to the conversation, OP, sorry.

OP, you seem to be misinformed on the current potential of quantum computation. Firstly, quantum computers are immensely difficult to engineer, and there is much debate on whether current quantum computers actually harness the power if information superposition. For these reasons, quantum computation theory is mostly an academic endeavor, although this may change, as China, the US, and Russia are trying to 'beat' each other to quantum computing.

Although, it was recently leaked (within a few years ago) that the NSA had allocated nearly $80B in R&D money for quantum cryptography. Enter: Peter Shor. Shor's algorithm proved that very large biprimes could be factored in a reasonable amount of time using quantum computation, thus rendering modern cryptography ineffective against such a computer. However, the idea of quantum computing really started materializing in the 80's, and Shor proved his algorithm sometime in the 90's, IIRC, so we are still in a technological standstill. Not much has changed since then, and developments are very slow.

>>59123482
You're talking about completely different things.

QKD is still an academic thing because it's only a set of measures to detect taps on physical (fibre) links - however though it's "theoretically" able to detect a splice, in practice actually none of the techniques do. They've all been broken one way or another. I'd say it was destined to remain academic but China are testing it in the field, because why not? You can always use it on top of something else, and it's fine when composed correctly.

Quantum computers are currently able to factor 6. They think maybe in a few years they might be able to factor 15. Wow. Throwing money at it isn't necessarily going to fix the fundamental entanglement problems. We're not talking 5 years here. Maybe another 20? The point is we want our cryptosystems to last past that, so we need to be looking at resistant alternatives now.

We have a fair bit of so-called "post-quantum" cryptography that doesn't rely on the difficulty of factoring or discrete logarithms - SIDH, lattice-based systems like NTRU, ring-LWE systems like NewHope and so on. Research is still very actively ongoing. Nearly all symmetric crypto will be fine (with a few things that might fall in theory to QPF), but we might need to make sure people are using 256-bit keys (technically hashes can be cube-rooted, but that needs so many resources that a time/memory tradeoff on a classical computer beats it).

Is your subwoofer powered, and if so, does it have high level inputs?

>>59124140
no. i want to build a passive amp and use that crown to power it. so damn hard to find an external powerful amp with high level inputs. want to build 12" ultimax sub

>>59124274
There's no such thing as a passive amp. You can buy a line level converter to use as a source, or you could possibly try to split the output of your audio source. Your sony receiver might have some kind of signal output for an external amp.

>>59123115
yes

>>59123115
Yes+looks sexy af too

>>59123115
IMO, not really.
It's a really good second or third distro, after you've gotten your feet wet and know how to go about solving problems.
You really can't be afraid of the cli or editing config files, though it does hold your hand a little bit more in those things than some other distros.
