Ha! Its a solid affordable card, i have 2.

I’ll still be using it regardless…its not like its going to dissappear

Well no shit a kindergarten racist gets in and shit goes wrong what did you expect.

Forever as in, multiple lifetimes…

Yes, sadly physical media advancements are dead. I always thought it would be fun to see what comes after cd, if the internet hadn’t come.

If only we could go back to reel to reels, such a great sounding format that really lasted (have some from 1950 that sound good as new) but the machines take care, and people dont listen to music at home anymore. And making tapes uses a lot of plastic that im not crazy about. But I love them anyway.

Gonna cry when gaben kicks it, they go public, and become ea 2.0. Its gonna be hell for gamers.

You can always rip cds and records you buy to a nas with a raid setup and an external drive you put in cold storage…media forever then

Yes…self host on a nas ;)

Isn’t bandcamp on a road to enshit? I thought I heard they were. I love it though. Feels like a record store online.

Tbf, computers are so boring now. To have been around when it was really booming, and you were coding machine language and talking to the actual hardware in a pc, now THAT would be cool and motivating. Now its just stealing code or using Ai code to make a bloated java website. Like all things, it just got boring.

Trying to get myst running on a p3 with 256m ram was actually fun and interesting. Now you just install steam, ha

Im exactly the same way. Im mad at people using Ai to code because all my life wanted to code but can’t get it down (ADHD).

I wish I was someone who could go huh, this 1998 ms flight Sim stick doesn’t work on linux. I’ll write a program to make it work! But there’s no way that will happen now

But I can run linux and at least im not on windows so that makes me feel better.

Oh yeah, the cheap ones do, and this was just a second hand pc I got for 40 bucks to have for messing around with. The psu may not even be name brand as there’s no labeling at all on it.

Right now, throttling the wattage allowable from the card has fixed it! I ended up using LACT for this, which works perfectly.

Yes im very behind in the pc world. My brain still thinks 4 gigs of ram is massive, ha. My main pc is another rx 580 with a little bit better fx proc and 16g ram, and it does an excellent job for everything I do. The proc is definitely a bottleneck though. Maybe ill go am5 next year

Im the medium user with 6 hard drives, a ton of peripherals, audio equipment, 4 other desktops. I choose linux to make life even harder because otherwise im a lazy pos.

Until waves plugins run well on linux it will never be a mainstream audio os.

Cranking my gpu wattage allowance shuts the pc down about instantly. Lowering it lets it run furmark for longer. I am guessing psu. Its a cheap cyberpower case that likely has the og crap psu

Yeah I meant that.

So, running furmark gets me the pink squares and crash after about 3 minutes. Gets 60 fps the whole time and sits around 70C. I am thinking psu seems likely.

I wish I could go back and learn all the old ways, but no one teaches that now. I hate learning things the new way with all the shortcuts and bloat everything has now

Maybe ill throw in another hd with mint and use that for a while to see. I do feel like its maybe psu related. I think this is a 500w

Soo except for taking an entire day to run, memtest checked out fine,

Fwik, Nvidia drivers are non native but pop os does have them included.
