Consumer cards are often actually bigger than the datacenter counterparts.
Most CPUs and GPUs in a rack just have low profile heat sinks and depend on the chassis to move the air. Since a datacenter doesn’t care about noise the chassis will just have a shot load of fans running full tilt over the fanless components.
Though when you get up to the large ML cards from AMD for example they have like Kleenex box sized heatsinks on them.
Kernel level anti cheat is such crap.
It isn’t true Arch though, so the Arch forums would never accept them. They would have to go install from scratch to be able to get “I use arch btw” badge.
I use endeavouros btw.
The reality is that there is no tax break large enough to make up the difference in costs for a lot of things. Even with tariffs China is still cheaper.
Just another immigrant pulling the ladder up behind them.
I mean they were built to make money, the fact that you can send them a national security letter is just a happy accident that keeps the NSA from having to run more datacenters.
I mean they don’t make it very hard to play their first party Games. Just pay the online free. The main issue is that not all of those games from 1997 are their games. They are just made for their system.
They are that’s true, but it’s because their parents bought it for them when they were young.
That’s true and not true at the same time. The one advantage Windows has in this regard is that everyone is working on the same “distro” as it were. With Linux the various components can vary enough to be confusing. I think that is why it’s important to choose a distro with a sizeable community.
Something like Ubuntu, or an arch derivative like endeavouros are a good choice for that reason.
I would also warm against the copy paste of commands that you don’t know what you are doing with. The one nice thing is that in 2025 you can drop a command into your choice of LLM assistant and get a pretty good description of what it does without breaking out the man pages.
I mean I’m pretty sure the massive game sizes we see today are almost exclusively caused by high res textures and assets.
Honestly in an office situation there is no excuse not to have a super automatic espresso machine. They cost like 1500 dollars and you don’t need to buy the damn kcups.
Those people have never seen someone who has been hit by an air bag. It’s not a gentle pillow it’s a punch to the face and if you aren’t strapped in you’re probably gonna bounce around a bit off the interior.
That actually sounds like it might be an improvement…
Smokers can never smell themselves so they don’t think it’s a big deal.
Is that giving a donkey an enema or preforming an enema with a donkey or is it utilizing a donkey to perform an enema…
No no those other countries will pay the tariffs.
Can’t lock people into some service if you do that. They gotta have that recurring monthly revenue.

I think I would like to go back to social media before people were getting paid for it
Has he paid any of the money he was supposed for the slander/libel/ breaking new York laws or whatever? Or has it just been reduced to nothing.
