where the FUCK can I buy a GPU for under $250?

It has honestly become a trend among big tech companies.
As long as the average idiot doesn't complain too much, then they halfass all they can, cutting corners so a triangle turns into a circle.

Well if you don't need performance I got a few cards here from Trident and S3.

There are tons of GPUs for under $250?
If you're looking for a decent gaming GPU for under $250, I'd suggest waiting for prices to come back down from eth mining assholes.

Can't wait for eth to crash, but then again if you're buying something fancy like a 1080, it's apparently not affected due to the RAM type and how it isn't as efficient as a 1070/other graphics cards.
You'd think enterprise-tier support would be better at their jobs. (I'd name names, but it's NDA'd)
This guy has now fucked up twice, and might cost me a thousand bucks (late delivery penalty) because he can't fucking read. First, he sends me C++ sample code when a) I asked about C# and b) I already had the sample code. Then, he sends me the wrong license key - because a library to work with a subscription-based software product running on proprietary hardware [I]needs[/I] a shitty license key to protect it, apparently. Multiple keys, in fact, since they want to charge extra for each different feature you can access, so you have to spin up one interface to read from their database, another to interact with hardware, and a third to access the print queue.
And after the first incident of "can't be assed to fucking read things", I made sure to mention in a half-dozen places that I was trying to work with the "peripherals" interface, and yet all he does is forward me (!) an email from their internal developers (!?!?) something about the license key for the print interface.
I've shot an email out to my actual client, asking them if they could give me a bit of a pass on that one feature if I get them everything else within deadline.
And now I'm going to go review my contract to see if there's something that covers "the third party failed to fulfill it's own contractual obligations and fucked everything up". That force majeure clause probably wasn't meant to cover it, but it looks like it does.

Finally got around to buying a 3d printer, a Malyan M200 which is pretty damn good for just under £200 with shipping from Europe.

Explorer.exe just restarts by itself with no problems but I'm not totally sure if it is completely harmless over time.
Running cmd as administrator for sfc /scannow fixes a few of these 'could not be read' errors.

It is trying to read from an empty or recently freed address.

Every time explorer crashes I lose half my tray icons until I log out and back in. Which ones go missing is entirely random and I can sometimes get back the one I need by restarting explorer several times, thus losing others that were less important.
Explorer is a piece of shit.

Okay, that's new behavior from explorer.exe after crashing.
what the fuck. Why is page 18 broken? It just loads page 17. I'd ask if I'm alone but I suspect I wont be seeing the replys if I am.

Pointer errors, the bane of explorer.exe.
If you get that annoying invisible icons bug or the login screen leaving its blue background, pressing the Windows button and going back to the desktop "fixes" it... until the next boot up, probably.
At least it is faster than restarting the process or the computer.

I've had this problem ever since the insider previews back in 2015, microsoft don't give a shit it seems. Close to every time I open a folder with very many files and then change directory, explorer crashes like this (though usually restarts). It's extremely annoying to lose all your open explorer windows when trying to do something.
If it weren't for muh gayms and poor Wine performance, I'd be as far away from Windows as possible.
Sanity check. My server serves really no one but me. But I do want the flexibility of moving the server around the house. I have a spare AC68 PCIe ASUS 5ghz AC card which got me like 700-800Mbps link speed before.
I want to put it in my server so I can move it to another room without worrying about running cables or using powerline to the router. Does modern Wifi keep integrity well enough for moving files and streaming data over WLAN? Or could I have issues with corrupted files when putting them on the server. With all my care of using ReFS with checksumming, ECC ram, scrubbing, am I throwing that out the window by using Wifi to connect to it?
I could get almost gigabit speeds with that adapter and would make it so flexible with it on a big UPS. I could unplug it, roll it to a new room and connect it again without losing connection to anything.
My pc is always connected via wifi and I have had 12h long wgets running before with no problem

Part of me wishes it was still like in the earlier days where you really didn't need Explorer to be running in order to Use Windows. I think up to Windows 7 you could get Program Manager to run but unfortunately it doesn't act like it did in Windows 3.1.

Hey want gpu updates to automatically download and install? Use our program which you have to make an account for to log in to use it. There's social media things too so you can share to your 1 follower on Twitter that you just updated your gpu drivers. Or be a pheasant and check manually on our website.

I never tried Windows 10 but there should be a "launch folder windows in a separate process" option in the Folder Options to use as a workaround. Creates a separated explorer.exe process for every folder window.

Should just make a platform that extracts the only necessary driver files from the exe (open with 7z) and throw them into a github release or whatever
