I've actually been surprised with what kinds of old shitty hardware Win10 runs well on. I've got a few old toughbooks with Duos in them and Win10 actually ran better than Win7 does currently. The problem I ran into was lack of supported drivers for everything.
In my experience, Windows 10 will happily run on awful CPUs but it really, really doesn't like old, creaky 5400RPM HDDs.
All that Windows 10 really requires to run to the best of its ability of basic use is RAM and an SSD.

time to not see this on wholesale and RSP for years but this is very quick. 1gbps only started being widely available since last year
Noticed that Cox is finally running fiber near my house today. I'm hyped for that. Not that my 300/30 line isn't good enough, but 1gbps would be tits money.
With you guys talking about those speeds, I feel like in the early 2000s with an unstable 5/0.25 line for the price of a modern fast internet
I am reaching peak

levels right now.
I was redoing my CV and cover letter shit to try to get a new job and went to print out the CCNA cert stuff because I forgot where I put them, so I logged into Netacad and...

Does this mean my CCNA cert shit I paid money for was never actually valid in the first place????? The fuck?
Are those for the netacad courses you mean? Cause if you took the test and passed I'd call someone asap.
I don't think the courses are worth much to employers otherwise
Those are paid netacad courses with an instructor I have done at my old school, since I'd have to travel pretty far go get an actual CCNA test done and shell out a hefty amounts of money. Old work I was at promised me to pay for the final test when I join them again after being finished with school and stay there for a year, but I'm looking for something closer to me because 4 hours of commuting daily without a car is a nightmare
Just an update on this: At 5am this morning I completed a monstrosity with over 1200 lines of CSS to do something that I thought would take 300.
Why the hell was I hired to do webdev stuff? I have no idea what I'm doing lmao
Comcast just cold called me to tell me that my DOCSIS 3.0 modem is old and shit and I should buy a new one from them.
I just got a 3.1 modem, cable shit is getting out of hand
They keep putting those frames into the browser and shit too. Look, I get it, DOCSIS 3.1 is the current standard, but I sure as hell don't pay for 10Gb/s internet speeds, so I don't need 3.1 at this time. Fuck off!
What the fuck, your ISP is hijacking your traffic to shove ads in your face? That's fucked up.
They never gave me shit for not having 3.1 before I got gig that requires it, odd.
US in a nutshell.
This is the same company who basically bankrolled A Shit Pie and enforced data caps even though "less than 1% of people even come close to 1TB of data per month", so I'm not at all surprised.
ISPs also frequently use hijacking for news of nearing your data limit or hitting it, it really needs to stop.
From what I understand, DOCSIS 3.1 supports higher modulation levels, which allows the modems to send more data over the same RF channels. When you have a bunch of old modems using slower modulation levels, it's not making as efficient use of the RF spectrum and reduces the capacity compared to having all of the customers on DOCSIS 3.1 modems.
You need DOCSIS 3.1 for your 130/12 obviously!
Finally having >100mbit down for the first time in my life is transformative.
Someday I'll have triple digit download speeds. Someday I'll have double digit upload speeds. Some day.
Um, excuse me Intel, but I don't think arbitrarily locking off features to make your most expensive parts look better is a viable strategy anymore, particularly not when it's a feature AMD has on all but their lowest-end chips and you're locking it away on your highest-end, and you're otherwise just matching them on core count.
Oh god. I just spent an hour writing a complete sin in React.
I'm making a drag and drop editor, when you click on nodes the properties of that node comes up in the right pane. Then you can edit and save them.
It does so by committing the properties to a JSON blob in localStorage, then having the properties pane read the blob, and then going in the reverse direction when you save the properties.
It just feels so... dirty. But hey, it works, and I have a deadline to meet.
Intel doesn't see AMD as a threat, and for good reason. AMD doesn't have the brand mindshare or marketing grunt of Intel. Even if Intel colossally fucks up their performance-oriented products and loses the goodwill of the entire gaming/enthusiast market, they still have excellent relations with OEMs and PC manufacturers and will be able to coast on that for basically forever.
Anyone else notice that they're unable to tap on arbitrary times in a video to skip to them in the YouTube app now?
I have to fucking drag the red dot to where I want to go now. Feels like garbage. Why remove that feature?
You think that's bad, I actually used a GOTO last week. In PHP! I wasn't even sure PHP had gotos. But it does, and now the password reset page uses them.
The gaming/enthusiast market is where the profit margins are, though. Office desktops and consumer laptops might move more units but they make most of their money off servers, gaming rigs and workstations. And those are specifically the users who care most about performance and are most likely to be informed about the state of the market. They can coast for a while, but they don't have forever. A couple years, max.
It made circumventing intermission ads too easy.
...go fuck yourself, youtube.
AMD has their semicustom to fill this role anyway, and binning down the whole stack has served them very well for all other markets, very little waste in the AMD house.
AMD is gunning for the server market, hopefully Zen 2 and 7nm turns the tide and 'bulldozes' Intels market lead. It'll take years for adoption obviously. Next problem AMD needs to solve is solutions fot 'low-end' (E3) servers, and getting clang/gcc/compilers more optimized for Zen.
