Why are computers so serious now? The mystery and the whimsy appears to have gone from all modern UI design. Lurid colour schemes like this are at fun and eye catching, even if the numbers of people who actually use it seriously was low, bu

I live near Ealing and it's been a tremendous improvement to my commute. You're correct, fast intercity services and the stopping crossrail services likely cannot coexist. But technically it is possible, assuming the requisite sig

Technically not really, instead of packaging the software into a .deb it’s shipping a container and metadata to get it working. I think the rub here is that the maintainers of the signal snap can't reuse the work they’ve already put in

I am not here to defend Nvidia, nor the quality of the design, I’m not in anyway capable of judging it on it’s technical merits. I think this debacle is a farcical mess. These new adaptors are included with products Nvidia themselves ship,

Perhaps a sunroom may be a better word in this case, in the U.K. a conservatory is a recreational room with large amounts of glass built to face the sun. So one can enjoy the sun and brightness of a sunny day without having to go outside if

The workstation world sort of broadly standardises card length, allowing for support on 3 sides (PCI Bulkhead, PCI-E Slot, and a card extension with a blade to fit in a rail guide towards the front of the chassis). Even old cheese grater Ap

I hadn’t even noticed that. And you’re completely right. My A5000 has pin holes on the board for a top mount but it’s power connector is on the side facing towards the front panel of the case.

That you’re self aware of your selfishness then that is half of the battle towards recognising that you can be better. When I was younger I always thought I was something special. High school sorted that issue out in a certain sense. In a w

Interesting - I actually like the experience of using DICE here in London, UK. The UX I thought is pretty neat, presenting me with the artists I’ve told them I like to listen to. I thought the ticket experience is pretty cool too.

I would imagine the P-Cores have other dedicated circuitry for various features that the E-Cores lack. I believe the intent for this hetrogenous setup is to be akin to the big.LITTLE topology used in ARM systems. Personally I'd like to

This is a bafflingly casual regard to safety, with not even a token based system to grant access to a particular section of track. The problem that caused this accident was solved in the 1800’s.

Workstation cards are traditionally supported on 3 sides so don’t suffer this sag. In such systems there’s usually an extension bracket screwed into the card to increase the length, allowing it to reach a support slot to hold it steady.

Is this the third naming convention in 3 generation or is it a return to the previous naming convention? Because it looks like this is intended to be deliberately confusing. So we had in the last 3 generations; Quadro RTX 6000, RTX A6000
