@yukiame Probably. They stopped producing them several years ago. Wonder how game devs will react.

You can literally do anything you need or want for gaming on a 3080. If it doesn't run on one it's on the devs.

@Shlomo @eee so computing has officially started to regress.that was the last little bit of forward momentum we still had, this is going to give most major companies the excuse to stop innovating altogether.the societal downward spiral is going to accelerate like never before.well with luck once we regressed back to the vacuum tube and copper transistor era, we might be able to start producing our own electronics once more.

@nugger @Shlomo @eee the question is how the easts efforts will go into all this.taiwan and korea are regressing.at the same time china and russia are manufacturing better and better gear thats close to reaching piety with what the megacorps have been making up until recently.nvidia going back to the 3000 series is a 5 year step backwards.if huawei were to start producing consumer grate pc hardware with there current technology, they are probably un par but for half the price.

@nugger @Shlomo @Some_German_Guy @eee i'm reminded of the time i saw simpleflips spend hours trying to nail a stupidly hard blj to save a fraction of a second on a romhack's slide levelthere was no reward for it. there's no social competition over a romhack 20 people played. the game offered no bonus star for it. this wasn't even during a stream, it was something he did offline because he innately derives joy and happiness from improving things even if they're trivial to other people. to him, a better result is its own reward. there's millions of guys on twitch with that mindset. none of them are permitted to direct that inherent yearning for improvement in ways that make anyone's lives better. they have been systematically shut out.

@Codeki @Some_German_Guy @Shlomo @eee just a joak, am reading it now."Documentation doesnât help. Almost all documentation regarding the Saturn V has been preserved. Yet there were so many changes, so many little details that never made it in, and so much to record that it is simultaneously too much and not enough.4 Documentation is, at best, a tool to help those in the present communicate with others. At worst, itâs a simulacrum of understanding that quickly falls apart on close examination."

@stoner713 @Some_German_Guy @Shlomo @eee I remembered this article because of the "Can't make the alloy" mention in the thread. "Oh, it turns out they vary the exact ratios depending on the weather to make it the follow the same characteristics."Jeets aren't smart enough to be able to do that. It takes a lot of brain power to be able to understand something so completely that you know you need to increase a certain part of the recipe by half a percent because it's snowing today and the Humidity is at 14% instead of 19%.

Hardware has been overpowered since 2006. It's simply software that really really sucks ass.

@Some_German_Guy @stoner713 @Shlomo @eee If the hardware isn't there, the software will have to begin pulling its weight. Software these days is bloated beyond all reason, both slow and at the same time devouring undue amounts of processing power, memory, and disk space, and the fifth UI redesign in the last four months is putting ever more lipstick on an ever fatter pig. It's one damn good reason to replace every last codeshitter with an actual programmer who can think about what they're doing.As for all the Internet-based things, a tyranical legislation would have to be passed to wipe all the "we value your privacy" vendor tracker smart-ads nonsense out of existence. Say it's to save the telecommunications infrastructure from overload or something because it's probably true anyway.

@BialoK @stoner713 @Shlomo @eee the problem is that these programmers dont work in the industry anymore.a smart company would scramble to hire every old fag coder that ever worked for a big company, but they are not doing that.instead every ratfuck in charge of a megacorp these days instead bets the entire house on ai, and devil may care when it all crashes in a few years.by then the finance kikes have retired with millions in there accounts and the midlevel streetshitters harvested all the isat they could ever hope for.software is not the answer, that one was hollowed out so long ago that there is barely anything left.the people hoping for a new trend in optimization and efficiency, will have the rug pulled out under them very quickly.

@All_bonesJones @Shlomo @Some_German_Guy @eee @nugger >are you trying to suggest that "because humans enforce laws and humans experience reality subjectively, laws are unfair and we shouldn't have any?"No. I'm saying that the French revolution teaches a lot on the subject.I'm saying that using punishment on people who are innocent because they are oblivious will only make things worse.The main issue isn't to punish people. It's to stop behavior that does not solve problems and to stop behavior that creates problems.Some people are undeniably lost and can't be dealt with passively, not doing so will make things worse in that case.Again it all comes to human judgment to know what to do, the issue is that we don't currently have any common core to be able to correct issues, those were destroyed thanks to the cold war remnant of subversion and of course changes in corporate/economical mentality.So to even want to go anywhere people need to redo that social core, to counter the divide and conquer that happened. Be it via church, nvc etc...

@Some_German_Guy @Shlomo @eee @nugger @All_bonesJones >how do you think germany changed from a slave nation in the 20's to a super power in the 30's?One can only wonder what happens to a nation that has a common beliefs, language, culture, religion etc... when they unite ? it never happened to any other country.

@Some_German_Guy @stoner713 @Shlomo @eee You're telling like it is, I'm telling how things ought to be. In that latter realm, where best user experience is concerned, things do come down to software optimization because it's the quality of software that makes the difference in how smooth it runs on the hardware that's there. There really isn't a good excuse for the bloat to remain should the right people come around to fixing things from the roots up. This is about the quality of life improvements for millions of computer users regardless of the pace at which hardware development progresses â something that musn't be overlooked.

@Some_German_Guy @Shlomo @eee @nugger @All_bonesJones >all this nihilisticWe believe in nothing lebowsky ! Nothing !This is a good example of misinterpretation.I was actually agreeing with you on that part but disagreeing with humor your other points as they contradict with know world history.People who have common traits will problems faster, but not necessarily better.

@mangeurdenuage @Shlomo @Some_German_Guy @eee @nugger >The main issue isn't to punish people. It's to stop behavior that does not solve problems and to stop behavior that creates problems.And how do you, in your infinite wisdom, propose creating methods of making people not want to do this that doesn't involve them being worse off (ie a punishment)? People change their behavior when they're incentivized to do so. Punishing bad behavior and rewarding good behavior. A negative punishment (eg, no longer providing something that they want) is a form of punishment.

@All_bonesJones @Shlomo @Some_German_Guy @eee @nugger @mangeurdenuage Would the prisoner's dilemma ever actually happen in real life? Probably once they knew details from either they'd both get hard time anyway. Snitching and getting no time would only happen if they want someone lower level to help them get the big guy.

@VidMasterEon @Shlomo @Some_German_Guy @WoodshopHandman @eee @nugger @All_bonesJones "Microsoft will make no money improving windows and will lose practically nothing with its decline they have the industry on lock"That remains to be seen. I think they are capable of making Windows so bad enough people will switch to sane Linux distributions.It's not l like they always owned this part of the OS space, see CP/M back in the eight bit computer days. See how they've already lost so much of server space, to the point Linux is a first class system on their Azure cloud.

@collappsar @Shlomo @Some_German_Guy @eee @nugger @mangeurdenuage Echoing @All_bonesJones earlier, no, prisoner's dilemma situations are fairly rare in real life.I've read the game theoretic alternative is "permanent retaliation." once someone betrays you, you never give them another chance.

@ThatWouldBeTelling @collappsar @Shlomo @Some_German_Guy @eee @mangeurdenuage @nugger > prisoner's dilemma situations are fairly rare in real life.Every single take a penny leave a penny is one of those, but the easiest example is the roadside honor boxthe guy putting up the honor box could defect by slipping garbage in there and asking for full price, or cooperate by putting in good products the guy taking from the honor box could defect by taking without paying, or cooperate by paying an appropriate amountobviously, both benefit the most from both cooperating, but both stand to make short-term gains (followed by retribution for bad behavior) by defectingevery single aspect of what makes a high trust society good is the ability to trust the other guy isn't going to defect

@WoodshopHandman @ThatWouldBeTelling @VidMasterEon @Shlomo @Some_German_Guy @eee @nugger @All_bonesJones I don't think it's quite the same incentive schema. The content is in YouTube bc Google pays people for making videos. Windows is not "the content".obviously people won't leave in droves, but I can see Steam stealing a chunk of the gaming market share, Apple stealing a chunk of other demographic and Linux also stealing some. AI Sloppifying everything not looking good for Manjeetsoft
