which phoronix in question doesn't do a raytracing section in particular with, so what data are yuou expecting phoronix to pump out? Their literal choice for raytracing is Quake RTX, as its linux native title. This is a situation where you're looking at the wrong type of reviewer if you want a specific piece of content.

of course its not all games, but it becomes significantly more messy for the reviewer to test it becuase you start getting anomolous data based on a decision made in advance.

also its a phoronix review, and last I recall, raytracing is spotty on linux and dependant if it uses wine or not. in the case for liek cyberpunk it does, but if a game doesnt natively have raytracing, its uses are more mixed

because actual FPS becomes volitile regardless of GPU because at 1080p, many games become CPU bottlenecked, so it becomes less of a question of the GPU being able to do something, but if your CPU is fast enough to maintain it. the benchmark then becomes very muddy because it may not be representative of what to actually expect.

The previous generations 4090 was already very cpu bottlenecked often at 1080p alone.

if youre considering a 5080 or 5090 for 1080p, youre looking at the wrong market.

i mean most other countries foods are derived from ingredients found only in the americas initally.

for example, any thing involving tomatoes, caocao or corn is basically thanks to the US.

other things tied to the US would be a lot of international dishes derived from ingredients used in the U.S military, or post war.

for example, UKs love of beans was virtually because Heinz came into the post war food scarcity in the UK to pitch canned beans. several regions love for spam was fueled by leftover military rations (e. g Korean Budae Jiggae)

other than that, there are a lot of random things people dont realize were US creations. for example, the popsicle is a US invention.

how the applicant thinks breaks down problems and handles how to answer them matters more than if the code is actually functional on the spot

I dont trust them because they took a friend of mine i had away from me.

they confirmed they were refurbished, as well as the drives were OEM drives (meaning different warranty) so the problem is that someone 100% has a mixed assortment of storage. whether that was on Seagates end or the retailers end (more likely imo to be on the retailers end, as Seagate has their own refurbished drive market they run, and would only be a seagate problem if someone mistakingly shipped a bunch to a retailer) as they are their own source and is not affected by other sources.

which is the point, because the answer on why people in the US use imperial units is because it's what theyre used too . you asked why change calories into joules? the same sentiment is said for ANY fucking measurement. It's not an issue of being pro imperial or pro metric, its to point out the fact that its just a matter of what units you are just used to measuring in.

Why would you change calories into joules?

because joules is the SI unit to measure energy, and Calorie is the amount of energy it takes to increase the temperature of 1 square centimeter of water by 1 degree celcius. why have 2 measurements of energy? 1 (kilo) calorie is 4184 Joules. an equally ridiculous number when comparing to imperial numbers.

when do you use all of those measurements in the same context is the follow up question.

for example, why do europeans still use calories for food. the SI unit for energy is joule. things are decided because "thats what people are used to" . the calorie is not an SI unit.

what were you measuring in middle school of all things, that would warrant using imperial units...

if you cant look at anything not based 10, I hope you dont handle anything time or computer related

because some places don't realize that imperial units are only used outside of science classes. in science, its all metric for the most part. its not one or the other, its both.

it's like the concept of metric time(yes it did exist at some point). It was eventually dropped. regardless if you think its bad, blame the pirates that raided the ship carrying metric measurements to the US
