I like how Samsung ads present quantum dot technology like it's something new. My 2013 Sony TV had this exact technology way before Samsung first presented their tv's with this feature.

Samsung has multiple different implementations of QD film, their most recent being QLED (which should be QLCD) is layers of QD film after the LCD. It gives them really good color reproduction, and viewing angles, but still suffers from light bleed, and isn't as bright.
Eventually they'll have proper QLED tech, they said 5-ish years last year, they displayed electroluminescent QD film, but getting it printable the way OLED is needs a lot of R&D.
[QUOTE=helifreak;52629132]It's annual failure rate. No idea where your figure of 18 failures comes from because it's not in either graph so I'll use one that is.
So for the ST4000DM001, 400 drives, 5998 days, 5 failures. 5998 / 400 gets us 14.995 days per drive. 365 / 14.995 gets us a 24.341447149049683227742580860287th of a year per drive. 400 / 5 gets us a 1.25% failure rate after 14.995 days, multiply by the fraction of a year and we get 30.426808936312104034678226075359%[/QUOTE]
Ah ok, so in other words they ran 150 drives for 3 months and didn't really learn anything because that's a tiny sample size
And ran 400 drives for [i]two weeks[/i] where 5 of them died and didn't really learn anything because that's a laughably short amount of time (and honestly not very many drives either)
Why even include those stats in the first place if you're going to misrepresent the data so much?
The real takeaway is that HGST drive are the most reliable at about 0.5% per year, WD drives fail at about ~1% per year (in the relatively small sample size they have them in anyway), and Seagate drives fail at about 2-3% per year, and in my eyes at least these are more or less effectively equal to your average consumer (even us) who is probably barely going to be buying even two dozen drives in our entire lifetime

Honestly, I wouldn't want an OLED monitor until the burn-in issue is mitigated.

Also black smearing. I like OLED in all the devices I've had it, but it is not perfect and there's still a bit of ways to go.
Speaking of monitor stuff, tomorrow I'm buying a monochrome CRT with amber phosphor :smug:
In the age of Electron based applications I find it so refreshing to see the "good old" native programs do their thing.
I just opened a 10 hour audio file in Audacity. Sure, it did take a minute to load and generate the waveform, but it only uses 45 MB of RAM.
Then if you take a look at something like Atom. A text editor that uses several hundred megabytes of RAM... to open a small text file.
Fuck workstation macs, honestly
Does any have a simple explanation for Haskell Monads? I am having a difficult time understanding.

Despite the name, this subforum is about using hardware and software, not developing it.
You're going to want to go here for programming help: [url]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1558239[/url]
Also to answer your question, I have no idea how monads work either, and they are apparently a difficult subject. I tried learning Haskell once, but lost interest.

Premiere caches a ton for smoother playback.
In my experience Adobe software will as use as much cpu/ram as it can manage.
Lightroom has actually eaten enough ram to kill my graphics drivers

I've got a certain PSD that if you opened it in anything past CS6 it would instantly lockup your system from resource whoring.
Its quite impressive how shit the newer versions are.
I wish it was possible to buy CS6 legally for a reasonable price. I don't use any features CS6 doesn't have anyway.

[QUOTE=garychencool;52628899]So the least supported edge on my EVGA 1080 Ti GPU card is kinda bending down due to the weight of the graphics card. Is this a concern? It's properly mounted on the PCI-E lane, and the bracket on the desktop case so I'd assume there isn't much I can do about it.[/QUOTE]
Any suggestions or is this something to just simply ignore.
does it have a backplate?
[QUOTE=garychencool;52632262]Any suggestions or is this something to just simply ignore.[/QUOTE]
Nothing you can do really, stuff does bend when it gets hot then cold with a lot of weight on it.
If it bothers you enough, get some string and tie a support for it.
Also EVGA PCBs are notorious for bending, even though that model you have has a midplate designed to try and stop it.

If its the FTW model then yeah it will, as well as a midplate.
This shit still bends regardless.

It's the FTW3 but yeah, looks like it has those plates. Oh well it should be fine.

Sag is pretty normal, if you're super concerned either get a bracket, or a 'jack' to hold it up.
