Dead Hardware

Gamers deserve less.

*friend completely disagrees with me on politics *

Me: "That's cool, we gonna play #Warframe later or nah?"

*friend states that @innoutburger is better than @Whataburger

Me: "I'M GONNA WEAR YOUR SKIN IN FRONT OF YOUR PARENTS."

POV: you are jensen after a long day at NVIDIA

@Caveman860 @PrsouzaaaRenato I've never used an OLED at low FPS, how is it bad?

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

I think the 6000 series will be the last new series of new gaming GPU because we've hit a plateau when it comes to graphical fidelity. I can see Nvidia making those cards for like 20 years.

We can't get more resolution, the human eye maxes out at 224 pixels per degree and 4k at ideal viewing distance already achieves 221 ppd.

RTX is increasingly solved.

Post processing doesn't eat that much GPU.

The only gaming use case I could see for a hypothetical 7000 series card, or even a super top of the line 6000 series card, would be something like hosting an AI model as part of the game.

@Auditore_Angelo @_patient_man @SebAaltonen The better question is anybody making games to use that power? The hardware is useless without software.

I'm beginning to doubt the idea that 8gb cards will ever truly go obsolete because we're running out of things to throw GPU at.

@D_the_Designer Someone did a Claude zine a few weeks ago and it was pretty neat

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@thinkingshivers @Shoshi_No_Taxes Also more likely to skew unemployed.

Employment status is a better predictor of social media behavior than politics.

Unemployed people do unemployed things and have unemployed beliefs.

Notice how a lot of gamers don't understand how the world works?

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@kaosblatte @makro_art They don't believe it. They have the player telemetry, they know it to be true. They have empirical evidence.

The average gamer really is that dumb.

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@SSulkainen17293 @DAKKADAKKA1 They have an alleged TFR of 7.

I think they've been pencil whipping their census because they are incentivized to do it.

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@landlord_dave @RefinedPopulist That's been the trades forever. Any time you're talking to a tradesman who is bright eyed and has the correct number of fingers you're talking to someone in the top 20% of their field.

@juuceboxx @i2cjak Ya the surplus NUC fills the whole the Pi was originally conceived to fill.

I'm sorry but we're going to have to make tough calls as a nation in order to maintain our technological supremacy and undisputed leadership of the free world. We cannot keep having tech executives compromised by honeypots. We need the Department of Homeland Security to start recruiting assets from ASU and other top ranked party universities to ensure that if corporate heads dip, they do it to patriots, not enemy agents.

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@SyntheticBeef Just attack attack attack and say nothing else.

They can't accuse you of lying if you answer the question with an attack.

"Did you use AI?"
"Do I need to call you slurs to get you to go away or can we pretend I did?"

@Webilyco @Imaginativ_Noob @aigamebootcamp Show her this, it's just a tech demo but it can get her gears turning.

They already know how to shoot and compose scenes. They can leverage the hell out of this.

Motion transfer is one of the most underrated and underused features in Seedance.

Steal my prompt below👇

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@Imaginativ_Noob @Webilyco @aigamebootcamp Ya Seedance, which is a prosumer tool, already has tools that leverage traditional filmmaking experience.

Her and her friends could achieve crazy stuff with it.

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@Webilyco @aigamebootcamp Also it's the capital markets that are blowing up her industry not AI.

Risk free rate of return is 5% and low risk rate of return is like 10% annually compounding. How much do you have to offer on a film slate to entice investment?

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@ExplosionsOf_BS @WeaponOutfitter @AtlanticFirearm That family is one of the harder parts kit builds due to the receiver.

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

It's American Defense Industry / Military / Intelligence culture.

Cheating is seen as poor judgement and it increases the risk of the cheater being extorted or honey-trapped into acting against America's interests.

It makes more sense to get rid of the cheater before they can be used against you.

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

@TendiesB @Kotazumaa Honestly worth it. I can't fault Jensen

[Dead Hardware @deadhardware]

I think it's going to be more of a shakeout than a burst.

Most of the middle of the industry are running on underpants gnome business models. They're gonna be cooked when their finance deals go bad.

The winners will be the majors (Anthropic, OpenAI, Adobe), the state aligned labs, and the local compute crowd (Actual, Nous, their users, etc...).

It'll take pressure off memory but I don't think it'll take much pressure off GPUs due to gulf in prices between prosumer AI gear and surplus datacenter hardware.

A prosumer AI workstation is a $2k-$10k project. Building a rack with surplus A100's is a $20k project.

@Aristos_Revenge @reddit_lies And the girls would get visas if HSI handled it. They have a visa specifically for stuff like this.
