Why did Nvidia stock drop with R1 hype? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

Pretty much like the other comment. It was thought that we still needed a lot of AI processing power to advance AI before it became more efficient. Now it turns out R1 does what o1 does but with way less. We'll still need nvidia so I think the stock will rise again. Besides, these are just large language models and are still a ways away from actual AI. I think there will be a second bubble at some point.

I was initially thinking Saudi-Arabia but then I figured Iran is another and most of those ex British colonial oil states aren't much better.

Following this I'd say half of the Middle East is fascist

Are you enjoying it? Good! Are you not enjoying it? Go to them and actively listen (if you have time). You'll find that participating in art as audience makes it less of a hindrance and more as something that is just happening.

Are they any good? Nice! Can they improve? Well at least they're practicing.

The monkey, of whom I'm wondering if it can see my ears.

Hey, take away all the humans and it's proper paradise. But offices are nice too, I guess...

FLP01 and custom front panel in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah the idea of having one of those simple 90s cases is cool. I would be kinda worried about airflow though. I think it may get kinda hot. Is your front panel mod also meant to intake more air?

Greenland Overwhelmingly Rejects US Accession in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I understand this is a joke and all, but this is about 1% of the population. I don't know how easily Greenlanders have access to the internet and such and how this was distributed, but I actually think 1% is not a bad turnout here

What are your favorite board games? I'm looking for games that are satisfying and lead to a sense of accomplishment or fulfillment or connection. in c/[email protected]

Ticket to Ride and Carcassonne for me. I play those with my wife and we don't really get in each other's way. She usually wins but I don't care.

Maybe go for a 1200W PSU... Just to be sure. And FYI the 50 gen is just about being released so the 4090 will be dated a little faster.

How can we prepare for ASI in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

I am in the hopeful side. Maybe an ASI can quickly analyze our issues and interfere. ASI might spit out any plans to improve everyone's life but if the people in power ignore all of the advice because they'll no longer be in power, nothing will really change except now there's an ASI using huge amounts of electricity.

Considering how everything's going, I honestly think an ASI won't make anything worse happen than the current state of affairs.

Feel like I'm slipping (just a vent) (lemmy.world)
 

Hey welcome to my ramble of the day.

Lately I've been very aware of how every day I accomplish a little less and have more trouble getting through an evening without drinking.

Christmas is coming up and I'm spending it in Switzerland with my brother-in-law. All good, you'd say. Except both me and my wife are running on fumes. We are both super tired. We've discussed skipping it but we cannot do this to my mother-in-law. She doesn't often get both her kids together and she's had a rough year.

In any event, looking at my progress over the past few weeks I feel like I'm doing a little worse every day and just that realization is making me kind of depressed.

So before I get all kinds of recommendations, here's my current game plan:

  • I've registered with a psychologist (not in the USA so insurance is not an issue)
  • My employer knows of evening and they are very supportive. I haven't been working since beginning of September)
  • I intend to take it very easy in Switzerland and try to relax around the other days of Christmas as well. Beginning of January will be super chill for me.

Thanks for bearing with me. I really hope to improve in the next year.

Having bad moments vs having good moments (lemmy.world)
 

Hey there, thanks for taking the time to read. I've been feeling bad for some time now and figured now is a good a time as any to share.

I am having a pretty serious issue with activating myself lately. I've been sidelined from work since the beginning of September. In this time I've been speaking to several healthcare professionals and colleagues. I'm currently in the process of finding a therapist.

I've recently drawn the conclusion that I do not sometimes have bad days, I'm pretty much down every day but I have moments that I'm fine. The fine moments are getting more scarce though...

Today I am writing to you because my mind does not know what it wants. I can't decide if I wanna call my friends and have a beer or if I want to curl up on my bed and cry.

Anyway, that was what I wanted to share. Thanks for reading.

Headphone choice (lemmy.world)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/16623544

Hey all, I've narrowed it down to 3 options: AKG K371 (at €149) AKG K361 (at €104) AKG K182 (at €69)

Use case is just at my desk. I have CX Wireless for on the road and wireless listening.

I like a full low end and defined, crisp highs. I mostly listen to soft easy listening like Mazzy Star or rougher rock bands like Evanescence, Bad Omens etc. I also listen to melodic electronic music.

I've read a lot of reviews and I can't really decide on the soundstage. For this I've chosen AKG because I have the K512 mk2's now and I've been very pleased with them.

As for comfort, I need them not to clamp after an hour or two. I don't mind having to pause every now and then.

Any other recommendations welcome.

But bottom line, I think 69 for the K182 is a great deal even though the K3x1s might be better cans.

Green or red? Mid-range gpu decisions (lemmy.world)
 

Looking to upgrade my trusty 1070Ti. I use my pc for RPGs (Borderlands, Hogwarts Legacy) , VR fps (Alyx, Arizona Sunshine) and VR simracing (F1 23).

Deciding between ASUS Dual 4070 (@ €600) or ASUS TUF 7800XT.

Benchmarks don't really tell the whole story because they rarely include DLSS3, but the games I play don't really support that anyway. TUF is a better cooler, but bulkier.

I can also just not buy anything and wait for the 4070 Super to come along.

Thoughts?
