Well it's a cold and windy day today!! Wind gusts up to 40 mph with wind chills below zero. I am gonna get layered up and hit the cafe, but, I will probably not walk there. I can take the train, one stop, and it drops me 2 1/2 blocks away. Rather than an uphill walk for a 1/2 mile, downtown, where the 40 mph wind can be magnified by the buildings creating a venturi effect.

Yeah, really not in the mood for frostbite, today. Or, ever, really! LOL. I might walk home because the wind is supposed to calm down, later ( place shuts at 8). We'll see how it goes. Ok, off to get ready, wish me luck!
It's weird today. I got Tuesday off, long story, so today feels like Thursday. Even though it's Wednesday. I'll get over it. Anyway, I think I'll do some laundry. Maybe take the trash out. I'm toying with the idea of walking down to the Liquor store...maybe grab a jar of Hooch and get 3 sheets to the wind. Eat a pizza and get the bed spins, later! LOL

Or, I might just put my robe on, do some laundry, and open up a bottle of wine . Enjoy a few glasses while youtubing between loads. IDK, Laundry, yes...anything else? TBD. :cool:
Man, I really need to just write down this password sometimes. Speaking of which, I was feeling social today
If you had a choice between two laptops. Would you pick the Intel Core Ultra 9-285H
or the Ultra 7-258V?

More like 2k according to the amazon listing? 14.0" WUXGA (1920x1200). However If i spec the laptop with the Ultra 9 288V then it has the 3k screen but the price also gets bumped up to £1480. But at that price point there are tonnes of more options like a proper gaming laptop or something from Framework.

Im sure Amazon have just picked up some weird silly config from Asus.

I know it says 2880 x 1800 on Asus's website but I dont want to risk buying the "Amazon spec" just in case it does turn out to be 2k then Id have to mess around with the returns process. I'll definitely keep an eye out for the UX3405CA on other retailers though. There is a certain retailer that will offer a discount and 2 year retail warranty.
Hello everyone, I am now retired. I also built a Asus ROG Strix Z890-E with Intel 285K and 48G Corsaire 8000 cl38 memory.Gigabyte 3080 12g OC. I am working on this system and the AMD system tunning to perfection.

That’s normal by the end of a generation - it’s salvaging scuffed chips. It doesn’t affect anything performance-wise.

That AD102 must have a LOT of defective shaders since there's ~10000 shaders disabled.

Half cores and one third memory bus minus versus RTX4090 AD102.
Temps are better than normal RTX4070TS with normal die or AD103 variant, because bigger die plus cooler from RTX4090. Even overclocking seems to be possible thanks to this a bit higher.
spiderman 2 is actually very cpu intensive i am playing the game at lowest settings fsr3 frame gen as i have a massive gpu bottleneck so most recent games i have played so far before this one only utilized 50% of my cpu max. But with this game it stays 70-80%, that number is very shocking to me.
Managed to get the 5080 Astral for less than 12k on Terabyte's presale?
I was just thinking about what it would be like to swap hellishly messed up Rubik's cubes of the same value with each other.
:)
How quickly will they open again if it's not one of your own?
Challenge acceptably?
