Dexx1s , to Lefty Memes in While you were worried about socialism…

But it would be an easy war of attrition no?
How many died/almost died because Texas couldn't handle a lil iced? How long could those states last without resources from outside? How much of their materials are usable raw?

Do the "much guns" states actually have a decent bit of knowledgeable people? Being able to shoot a gun is fine and all but a war is far more than that.

The biggest worry would probably be the ones already in the military who could/would easily sabotage any efforts. And yes, drones are easily beating rifles when it comes to depleting each other's resources.

I know fuck-all about guns and war but my armchair is warmed up.

Dexx1s , to Technology in Scarlett Johansson denied OpenAI the right to use her voice. They used it anyway.

Finally, a sane response. Of course they'll "sound similar" because they're both female voices attempting to come off as friendly with an American accent.

I'm more on the side of opposing AI implementations but people are really reaching with this one. I'm assuming it was pulled just so they can get their legal defense in order.

This will be another case like any other, where they take it to court, and there is no real basis for anything

Because then they'll give up whoever it was that they used to voice the AI and it'll be mostly over. The thing is though that if they rush into a lawsuit too eagerly, nobody's going to want to work with them under a similar contract.

Dexx1s , to Political Memes in Washington State Ban on the Unhoused

You are implying that you're for the bans, or at the very least, that they're reasonable because of some nuance. You literally do that again here in this comment:

people that comment on this will probably have less information than necessary to make a reasonable argument.

The default conclusion that most will have is that banning homeless people is a really shitty thing to do.
What extra info do we need to reasonably come to the conclusion? Where's the nuance? I even went and read the first half or so and skimmed the rest(because it seemed repetitive and is more lengthy than I wanted to read) but there's nothing there that even attempted to change my mind.

Dexx1s , to News in Net neutrality rules restored by US agency, reversing Trump

They're not being criticized for doing the right thing. They're being criticized for the negative aspect. Many others have answered it, but the way you're framing this is kinda strange.

You'd equally criticize anyone else that you thought had the power to save a drowning man but sat there watching for a while before finally saving him.

Dexx1s , to 196 in Hydroponics Rule
  1. Shut up nerd!
  2. I learned something today. Thanks.
Dexx1s , (edited ) to Asklemmy in What is the deal with mobile GPUs vs PC GPUs?

Basically, it seems to me like the technology in mobile GPUs is crazier than desktop/laptop GPUs.

It's not. They have the same software technologies and the desktop counterparts have better hardware.

but not by enough that it seems to need to be 100x bigger than a mobile GPU.

Yes it is. No benchmarks would agree with you here. Also, just look at the power draw for each and how much noise each cooling solution makes.

And top end mobile GPUs actually perform quite admirably when it comes to graphics and power.

Depends entirely on what you see as admirable. Power efficiency wise, they're great, but their performance isn't anything to write home about, especially considering that they typically share cooling solutions with the CPU. And that's at the top of the line. Lower down, it's not all that great, with desktop counterparts having much better 1% lows when the power is more comparable.

So with most of what you said being incorrect, your conclusion is also incorrect. Generally, more surface area on coolers means they can cool higher power limits, can have bigger fans and/or have those fans spin slower so they're much quieter. Regarding the power consumption, it's simply diminishing returns. Mobile GPUs are just cut sooner on the graph.

Dexx1s , to politics in John Oliver offers to pay Clarence Thomas $1m a year if he resigns from supreme court

True, we all know he won't take it, especially considering that his benefactors would gladly match it for him to stay in his seat.

But it was a solid end to an episode outlining how scummy he is with his bribes. The episode wouldn't get as much traction as it would be seen as barely more than another call-out.

And in the one-in-a-milliom chance that he accepts, we still win.

Dexx1s , to Linux in 2024 Is the year I will commit to ditching windows

RGB for Corsair (iQue on windows, open to alternatives)

What I do with my Commander is to use the onboard lighting and fan curves. Set it up on a VM or when you still have Windows.

You can also look into Liquidctl

Dexx1s , to Hacker News in HP's CEO spells it out: You're a 'bad investment' if you don't buy HP supplies

Well luckily for them, I wasn't ever gonna buy an HP printer anyway. Either way, what IP is there in a printer ink cartridge?
