Kinda like: this is kinda tolerable if you actually work in an old building and you see it's an old building that people do actual work in because refurbishing everything every six months would be overkill when it's obvious hipster chic where millenials pretend sitting in a squeaky clean not-cubicle with raw steel and concrete around them makes them better than people sitting in a normal cubicle it's just cringeworthy

Woden posted:Desktops are dying, so Samsung, ARM and Google/Apple will just pull and end around like Intel/MS did to IBM and mainframes. lol perhaps you have never heard of the concept of market saturation that has started to apply to computers since they aren't obsolete after 2 years anymore, and you probably like to extrapolate exponential growth into the far future you're well suited to become the new ceo of a company that is doing moderately well. you'll have no problems turning it around and quickly bringing it to the point of circling the drain. TacticalUrbanHomo posted:uh, I don't know if you've heard, but Chipotle recently announced they will be making sure all of their ingredients are GMO-free. Is McDonald's GMO-free? lol GMO free isn't actually healthier, unless you are literally insane and will collapse from a panic attack upon seeing gmos in ingredients lists

ArbitraryC posted:People keep saying amd is dying but I'm not so sure, if you do any googling on building a budget gaming tower literally everyone will recommend you go for the amd 6300 + the gtx 950 right now, together they're about 250 and pass better benchmarks than current gen gaming consoles. I think intel firmly has higher end processors in their pocket but if you're the kind of person who builds a cheapish pc every half a dozen years to keep up with modern games amd is always going to be best bang for your buck in the 100 dollar range processors. if you build a cheapish PC every five years or so, buy a cheap haswell i3 and a gtx 950 for higher gaming performance and lower electricity bills unless you for some reason want to do video editing on a crap tier pc there's no use case for an amd desktop processor

Aleph Null posted:I've bought AMD for my personal computers for 20 years. I remember being so stoked about the Athlon and then about x64. I even had some of the official, metal AMD Inside! stickers. They were on fire! Like Intel a few years earlier, AMD made a bad CPU design decision and took too long to get a mediocre product out the door, and is now slowly playing catch-up. Unlike Intel, AMD can't just drown problems in literal mountains of cash. yogizh posted:AMD will rise from the ashes with their 32-core processors that will be used in consoles, because SONY is too loving greedy to use serious hardware. Hey now, at least game developers might be forced to finally let applications scale over multiple cores properly

Johnny Aztec posted:Has AMD put out anything decent since they stopped making the Athlon chips? I used one of their X3 chips for a while before putting money down on an i5. The current thing (zen iirc?) would have been good two years ago. See: playing catch-up after spending too much time on a failed product (bulldozer/piledriver/...).

Frosted Flake posted:I liked being able to get takeout from smaller niche restaurants, but now that they're all spread around 4+ services it's not that convenient. It's crazy. Wait, do small and mid-sized restaurants not have their own delivery driver where you live? In Germany, you just go to pizza.de (a site that lets restaurants put up an interactive menu) and order takeout from basically any restaurant within a 5km radius.

Professor Shark posted:I listened to a CBC "As It Happens" interview with host Carol Off and the Turkish ambassador. This was back when they were killing protesters over that park or whatever a few years ago, and Carol Off called the ambassador a liar and hung up on him, saying there was no point in continuing the interview if he was just going to respond with government lies/ propaganda to everything she asked. This owns.

BigBoss posted:I'm not surprised. How could they match the R&D and production scale of the larger Japanese concerns once things went digital? You can't just make CCDs in house the same way you grind lenses or stamp bodies. I would assume Leica sources good components, but I am not shocked they have to buy the camera guts from someone else. For cameras, Leica essentially hand-manufactures the camera casing and optics, so you end up with above-average grade everything around a sensor of hit or miss quality. Another problem is that Leica is targeting an extremely niche market. The whole point of using a rangefinder is that it's a small inconspicuous camera you can carry around everywhere for e.g. street photography without being mugged at knifepoint in slums all the time. The completely insane cost of Leica Ms completely defeats the point of using a Leica for street journalism etc. when you could buy a literal bag of Fuji X-Pro 2s with a digitally enhanced rangefinder viewfinder, autofocus, and generally more modern guts in a slightly less tank-like case for the same price and just wreck one every year. The remaining market for Leica is therefore rich hipsters. All the good parts of Leica are still present in the microscope division, because a market for expensive high performance microscopes still exists.
