I got the gtx 260 for 15 bucks, it is tested and it's a bargain

I will not be spending thousands of dollars in something I have to upgrade the next years

Buying things on release day is the most retarded thing you can possible. On release day, things are guaranteed to suffer from

Give tech some time to mature so other idiots and early adopters can work out all the kinks and figure out all of the flaws for you. Then buy it once you have a better idea of everything wrong with the product.

Plus, price of new tech drops quickly. Even just a year can cut a price tag in half. IMO it's not so much about the price as it is about knowing which products are a piece of shit, though.

As if any shitbox consumer router with wireless 802.11AC is going to do anything well.

You're probably a retard.

I'd just like to interject for a moment; What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Well, I want to make mobile apps/games or bots for games for now. Not sure where to start that.

B-but VR is the future, aanon?

Powerful operating systems, LTE, widespread encryption across large storage, seamless cloud storage, faster charging, wearable technology, AR/VR, unlimited calling and texting near ubiquitous in America (the few people who had either in 2004 paid a fuckload for that), amazing cameras, biometric security, NFC-based payment platforms...

The list goes on. What was your point exactly?

>>58010253
That modern phones can't make holographic messages anymore.

Are you dense?

Use MadVR and Reclock with Mpc-hc.

It's magic.

>>58009784
i dont want my graphics card running at 80% while i watch videos and i'm surely not gonna watch films with fan noise at 50 db

>>58009879
I use Reclock and MadVr with some pretty nice filters and scaling algos and only see 3%ish GPU usage at idle clocks, about %12ish CPU usage.

Thats with 720p to 1080p 10bit animoo with debanding, dithering, super res, scaling... Etc.

Results may be different for use but most of the filters aren't crazy demanding. Also use MadVR from a couple versions back or the one included in KCP, as the GPU loads is less, at least for me.

windows 10 does an okey job for scaling 150% on 4k, it wouldnt be eligible without it, beit a few apps like teamspeak dont scale.

most smartapps and windows games are ok on 4k too

(p.s. i used to hate dpi scaling)

>>58009698
I really don't care about running at 4k or scaling right now, I just can't stand the 30hz jerkiness. I can't figure out why 1080p 60hz worked earlier but not anymore. Ive reinstalled the gpu driver without any luck.

it's because you're not using ubuntu

>>58009617
does ubuntu have some sort of non magical keymap or something?

Kill yourself stupid nigger.

>>58009560
It just depends on the processor.

E.g. the 2016 MBP configured with i7-6820HQ has vPro and thus iAMT.

Not sure whether it would be accessible through Open Firmware.

>>58009740
>Open Firmware
You mean EFI?

It's $3k and only supports Japanese. Only the most /jp/ /g/entooman will shell out.

Its already there. Just open the video with mpv (better with fixed size option) and make the window float atop.

Its macOS that never had this functionality and then messed with the the thirdparty support for floating windows.
Or use a tiling vm. If you need DRM support you should kill yourself.
