Good evening, technology board of the Four Channel image board.
I would like to present to you an interesting case. One of my Steam friends says that the Intel Core i7 6950X is the most powerful processor on the market right now, as well as one of the cheapest ones, when overclocked to 5 Gigahertz.
This is the math he gave me:
5 x 10 x 2 = 100 GHz.
1650/100 = $16.5 per Gigahertz.
He says it works that way because you multiply the five gigahertz for each of the two threads of the ten cores.
What do the lurkers of the technology board of the Four Channel image board think of his reasoning?

>he doesnt blur out the profile picture
fuck off
>>56575446
We don't care what your idiot steam friend thinks.
>>56575446
You will never be using the ten cores at once to the maximum of their capacity.
Prove me wrong.
Protip: You can't.
My only issue with androids are they are buggy.
But buying a flagship apple is also a fools endevour.
Lots of androids have cool features but no support so you are stuck with the nexus line.
The nexus line is also good but id rather buy a smaller iphone 5 or SE than a giant android.

>Lots of androids have cool features but no support
why would you go on a chinese cartoon forum and just outright lie?
Would an average normie that is on vacations somewhere actually spend money on a decent camera instead of using their phones? What would be the ups and downs?
Used to work at a camera store, going on vacation is one of the top drivers for people to upgrade cameras.
>People with money - Sony RX100 or Fuji X100
>People with not a lot of money - Sony WX500

well first visit /p/ and read the gear thread, and observe all the people arguing and circlejerking about dozens of different non-phone cameras and innumerable lenses for them.
Second, I just got back from a road trip, where I visited the Grand Canyon, among other places. There sure were a lot of phones. Hundreds of them. There were also a lot of dedicated cameras. Dozens of no-sharp-corners D3300s and Rabals, many with 18-55s, plenty with superzooms of various descriptions. There were some people with 5D3s and such, and you saw a few people with normal primes. Some mirrorless folks, Olympus seemed to be the most common, followed by A6000s. Some housewife with two white Pentaxes. And one enterprising lunatic who had a D4 with a 24-70/2.8 VR and a flash, and a second crop body with some telephoto, plus a backpack which I'm sure had plenty of other lenses. Also saw a birdwatcher lugging around what I think was a 500/4.
So I feel pretty confident in saying that dedicated still cameras are alive and well. What phones did was kill point-n-shoots and disposable film cameras. They fill the same niche. Simple, cheap, easy to always have with you, not the greatest image quality but good enough for what most normies need (then: 3x5 prints, now: social media), and one roughly 28mm-equivalent field of view. As long as there are people that want anything more than that, or who just want to signal to others that they want more than that, fancy cameras will be assured of a future.

?
sharp corners are dictated by glass, not sensor
if anything crops will have sharper corners because they're cropped in on the glass itself
however you are right that cameras will never ever die
you cannot replace good glass
you cannot replace good glass
You.
Cannot.
Replace.
Good
Lenses.
Not to mention phone sensors are fucking garbage shit in a bag made out of feces bad awful.

How is this even possible? What went wrong on modern game development? What language was N64 games programmed on?
Is it possible to bring such efficiency on modern platforms natively?

No.
Have you considered that you sucks at programming and development?

My boss is a fuckface so I'm quitting my first tech job after six months. I'm gonna deliver pizzas again and just get more certs. What's the best second first job so I can start my career over again?
Pizzahut
>pizza
uh oh
There will always be retarded bosses. Thats IT in a nutshell. You need to build a resume and prove you can work with the worse so you're deserving of the best.
Thoughts? I cant wait for the 10th grade script kiddies to buy these and run around their school computer labs frying all the PCs and then the huge lawsuits come rolling in.

gtx 950>rx 460
just upgraded my old pc with a new mobo, cpu and ram but wi dows wont go to desktop. I've got the options of startup repair and start windows normally but ive done the repair 3 times and it didn't help and neither did start windows normally. im guessing this is because of the new mobo drivers. is there any way i can delete the old drivers and install the new ones without installing new windows?
Tell me why you don't have Manjaro installed yet
>>56571250
Because I'm scared of breaking things.

I have nothing to gain by switching from debian stretch to manjaro.
You didn't tell us why we should switch. Do that and maybe we'll consider your post.

What's the ideal screen size for a smartphone?
>>56566803
How big the screen on a Galaxy S7, not the stupid edge version? That's my phone and I love the size. Not too big, but just right.
>>56566803
5 to 5.5 inches
>>56566803
about 4.5 inches
>Want to buy new PC with new GPU

>...yet when I ask duckduckgo about opinions, people tell others to get 1060 instead, as "it is much better"
I dont know who is right /g/ or what the hell is going on. So it is better or not?
Could anybody explain this to me? Or provide some advice?
if you like the noise of a jet get this card
aftermarket 1060 will outperform nitro while being cooler and quieter
>>56563376
Noise is less problem, Im used to have very loud PC (my poor i5-750 CPU and its stock cooler scream every summer since last two years or something).
do yalls use music players
>>56562642
Seeing as how phones are gonna become more and more retarded, I might end up buying a music player.
>>56562642
I use my phone as a music player.
i have this one.
