>Nvidia supports Linux by making proper drivers and supporting Valve in their Steam machine project
>Meanwhile AMD rides M$'s cock with DX12 and locking their future processors to win10
Why does /g/ consider AMD to be the good guys, again?
Because amd doesnt say that their products offer 4GB of vram when they have less.
Because amd doesnt gimp older cards
Because amd doesnt hand out reviewers-only drivers to turn the tides of their benchmarks
Because amd doesnt lie about their tdp
Because amd doesnt use a 128 bit bus-width on a 400 dollar card
Because amd doesnt gimp the competition with closed source software.
Because amd doesnt ignore an important part of the modern GPGPU just because its biggest market is L33T GAYMURS
Because amd didnt release fermi

What the hell's the point of 1440p/4K/5K resolutions if you can't even read anything on it?
I'm a programmer, and decided to buy a 1440p monitor, and a laptop with a 1440p screen as well to get dem productivity gains. It's true that over, say, 1080p, there's an appreciable amount of more space to work with, and in that regard the upgrade has been worth it.
But jeez, I am going blind with these things. Text and UI for everything I use is stupidly tiny, and if a given application (terminal, IDE, browser, etc.) actually supports UI-scaling, it's usually implemented either badly where shit is misaligned and cut-off, or becomes a blurry mess with no space to work with. Same goes with OS-level scaling (I have to use both Windows + MacOS for my work).
In the end, in order to make things readable -- either by turning down the resolution or having an app that does scaling properly -- the amount of space I'm actually able to see sanely and work with is basically negates any benefits of running at a high resolution in the first place.
For vidya games or hentai, or some other time-wasting activity, high resolution makes a big difference, and I welcome it. But for development work I can't see the benefits.
I should've just spent my money on more monitors.
>>54952622
>a laptop with a 1440p screen
Higher resolution is less useful on screens that are much smaller. You would change your tune if you were working on a 23" 1080p screen, then changed to a 25" 1440p screen.
>>54952639
Good point about resolution anon.
But my main workstation uses a 27" monitor @ 1440p. It's definitely easier to work with than on my laptop, but it's still really frustrating to use due to the scaling stuff I mentioned in the OP. And I used to use a superjumbohugewhysowide monitor before, but it was just too big. 27" seems to be the sweet spot though.
Have any fellow developers (read as: people who read text and documentation all day long) managed to be happy with a >=1440p / >=4K setup?
>>54952622

That's where you fucked up.
Should've gotten a 70" HDTV dumbass.

I'm at my wits end. I wasn't doing anything different from what I usually do on my phone. I wasn't attempting to run a thousand apps at once. Any idea what's going on? Or am I just up shit creek?
Would I be able to just plug my SIM card into an older phone to at least have telecommunications for some time?
>Sprint
>no issues
Are you a wizard?
All joking aside, I hope your phone is still under warranty or that you pay for handset insurance because that shit isn't coming back.
>>54952462
>isn't coming back
But why? What would cause a phone to just up and kick the bucket without any warning? Every phone I've ever had has at least shown signs of its death.

Microsoft believes the future of Windows is as a platform for all. Like Android, the strength of Windows is in the thousands of companies that develop for it and use it in their products.

The Start menu is improved, and it may even make Windows apps useful. Look to the left and you'll see a list of your most-used apps, just as in Windows 7. At the bottom we see an 'All apps' shortcut, plus shortcuts to File Explorer, Settings and – conveniently – shut down and standby!

Updated Windows 10. All going fine and dandy till I reboot my laptop for the first time. Now stuck in 'automatic repair' loop. Has anyone ever experienced this?
not personally but I've heard this is a common problem

What features would you want in a Torrent 2.0 protocol?

Some sort of privacy would be nice. I don't like the idea of everybody in the world being able to see my IP and what it's downloading in the public swarm.
Apart from that, the big problem to solve would be trackerless search and some sort of distributed quality assurance to make sure it isn't 99% mislabelled garbage and botnets.
>>54951925
not sure how one can implement this, but even more decentralization
>depends on trackers to provide peers
if we can somehow avoid trackers in general, more peers can be found

I had been noticing my server/media PC had been cranking up the fans to 11 any time I watched something so i finally decided to clean it out and upgrade the heatsink. Dust wasn't too bad because I dust it every couple months but then I went to pull the heatsink and after a little wiggling in came out with the CPU attached.
This computer is about 6 years old, my first non-prebuilt that I converted to a media server last year. a 6 year old server with 6 year old thermal paste and it seems to have baked/vacuum sealed the cpu to the heatsink.
The CPU lock is still engaged and there's no damage to the housing or the pins. I just can't get the cpu off. Do any of you know what I can do to unstick it?
tl;dr cpu is stuck to heatsink, can't get it off.
>>54951835
block of wood to the edge and hit the wood with a hammer
or
soak in isopropyl alcohol try to get it between the cpu and heatsink should come off easy
Your best bet is twisting the CPU over the surface of the heatsink; that is to say, rotate clockwise. If it's stuck too tightly for you to be able to twist it with your fingers, you can use adjustable pliers for the twisting; but be careful not to damage the pins.
>>54951888
Yeah, I tried twisting but couldn't get enough grip without messing with the pins. I don't have pliers big enough for that either.
>>54951865
Hammer didn't work, I'll try the alcohol.

Are ultra wide and curved monitors just a meme?

They are expensive though.

I created a programming exercise thread yesterday, where you would roll for your coding project. Seeing as this is technically a get thread, I was banned for a short while. I still want to continue with the thread, so I'll try to find a workaround that'll keep the core of the exercise the same. Let's make /g/ great again.
