breaks as soon as you open the flyout
Decided to replace my dying EVGA 780 3gb(from like 2013 iirc) with an EVGA 1070 FTW 8GB that I got off Newegg for $329 or so.(Comes with MIR card so like $310 or so total)
Good replacement?
Black magic.
Well a tear is when a new frame is delivered from the GPU. So it could be adjusting a very slight delay like a framecap to keep new frames coming in within a certain period.
But why not use fastsync
It's not as good as unsynced, but it can be still quite good. Since the GPU never has to be timed to anything. Renders as fast as possible and only displays the latest frame.
Anyone here decided to hop on the Windows 10 LTSB/C bandwagon that seems to be picking up just recently? I'm ready to get it installed but I'm starting to hear mixed news on the stability of it.
The windows 10 built in photos app is pretty awful, but at least it finally reads the EXIF rotation data. My camera from 2010 has it and I only realized that photos rotated properly after uploading them to Imgur and noticed that something different.
they don't care about warez anymore iirc
Just had a delayed Halloween experience assembling my brother's computer in a new case. First time I boot it up, I just get a blank screen. I try pretty much anything I could come of with, then return to the initial configuration and everything's fine and dandy.
I don't know whether to curse or bless the computer spirits, but my heart just can't take this kind of shit.
If you believe in a sensationalist title like that, you've already been jebaited. Sure it's bound to do pretty well in AVX workloads where it used to lag far behind Intel now that they've gone and doubled the FPUs. You could probably come up with a very specific contrived scenario where it gets nearly 2x IPC. But in reality in most applications people typically use, the difference will probably be closer to 10%.

Does anyone have a good amount of experience with Microsoft NAV and entering orders? I'm trying to find a way around the credit limit check that's forced through the entire NAV server and just bypass it for my own personal user. I enter a lot of orders and when you're trying to do 20+ lines of items and you have to say "Yes ignore warning" twice for every item, it get's tedious and annoying and causes TONS of mistakes while typing.
Or maybe a script that could be written that would automatically say yes as soon as the window pops up that wouldn't jeopardize the security of my computer at work.
As I said in the thread about that, I'm like 99% sure it's about having full 256-bit-per-cycle AVX2 support. Right now, their SIMD units are 128-bit-per-cycle - perfectly fine for AVX1, but it means all AVX2 instructions take twice as long. So on super-crunchy, non-memory-limited hand-rolled code, you could see a 100% improvement. That kind of code basically doesn't exist - even in really crunchy code, you're going to see non-SIMD instructions and/or hit memory bandwidth limits - but a 29% boost on a fairly crunchy benchmark seems completely reasonable.
Actual performance boost on more pedestrian code will likely be a lot lower, more in the ballpark of 5%. Which is still better than Intel's been doing over the past few generations.
So, speaking of computer illiterate people who think they know things
Every person using my ISP in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida, ALL lost internet for a day due to a single fiber cut
The fuck?
Buying transit is expensive.
Rolling backbone is expensive.
So yeah, an ISP having a single route for areas is depressingly common from what I've seen.
I was talking about the FP mods
Anyone had a look at those USB3 SSD caddies that let you fit an m-sata drive in them?
I'm toying with one as a windows 10 to go drive.
It'll work fine.
Access latency not the best for any USB devices.
Speed varies pretty largely based on chipset.
Today my coworker decided to prank me and my boss because I didn't lock my work computer after going to do work on-site (It's a 6 person office only in the building and I thought that they're not THAT autistic to pull some horrible prank, since the only prank in the office that was done was changing the wallpapers).
I'm still in the trial period for a few more days and he wrote a mail to my boss that I'm quitting. He instantly arranged a face to face meeting to talk things over, called the office if I even came to work today and blew up other co-worker's phones asking what happened.
Lets just say that I found out early that I'm gonna be actually be employed full time after the trial period.
Wow that's a dick move. It's not even a prank, that's just trying to fuck someone's life up. Hope they get at least written up for it or something, that's just not something to joke about.
The worst my pranks tend to be is taping the batteries in someone's mouse so it can't power up. Usually do like several layers of it, tape over the sensor, tape over the battery terminal, and then pull the dongle out just enough to not connect.
My favorite is using the ctrl + alt + arrow key shortcuts to rotate the screen. There was a manager that would do that every time she found a computer with an unlocked screen.
It's super annoying on Windows 7 if you have multiple monitors.
worst i ever did at uni with my friends who keep their laptops out and unlocked was open a meatspin/goatse window or change their steam name to cumlord
Could a power surge destroy complete folders on a disk?
To elaborate, I have been playing a ton of VR. We had a brownout this morning and when I went to log onto my desktop, SteamVR and one of the games I was playing were just gone.
I thought the brownout had killed a disk, but in reality it was loose SATA cables. I replaced them with better cables. I traced all of my SATA cables and all 4 lead to disks that are accounted for in the BIOS and in Windows. But, SteamVR is just gone. It seems weird that a few Steam apps would just disappear due to unstable power.
I once threw an "alias nano=vi" into someone's .bashrc, on a system where vi was actual BSD vi and not vim. That's the evilest I've been.
I don't think they noticed for a month, they did all their stuff in Sublime via sshfs anyways.
Hmm, I could see the filesystem possibly getting corrupted if your pc just shuts down in the middle of writing/modifying something. Tried running a chkdsk yet?
I've had SteamVR installed for months though and it's weird that it's just gone.
I mean, I could have sworn I had a third SSD plugged into my box somewhere, but unless someone broke into my house to steal a 4 year old Intel SSD full of games, I have no idea what happened.
Not yet, no. I'll run one. The only thing I notice that's missing is Steam apps, hell, the plugins for OBS I downloaded last night are still in my Downloads folder.
