I run a very small vps running caddy and tailscale. Then just expose any service I need externally through that. Very easy to setup.

Apple still produces older generation devices long after the latest ones are released. That's their whole strategy to address the lower end market.

This is not relevant to what is being discussed. I clearly mean top tier consumer GPU. 3080/3090 - Same die 2080 ti/Titan RTX - Same die 1080 ti/Titan Xp - Same die 980 ti/Titan X - Same die 780/Titan - Same die 670

In seriousness, this make Meta's decision to push open weight models incredibly valuable. Now there's no restrictions on their geographic use or "Security Standards" unlike their competitors.

Well once you bring law into it then you have to be accurate. Insulting someone is almost never unlawful in the US. And discrimination laws apply to specific matters for specific special classes.

DLSS upscaling is good. On a 4k display I can't see any visual reason not to run the Balanced preset. DLSS frame gen on the other hand I'm much more skeptical of. Every time I've tried it something just feels off.

A major chip acquisition by Nvidia will probably never get global regulatory approval. I guess the question is what does Mediatek provide in the partnership. Nvidia is well versed in developing ARM SoCs already.

Every teen wants a gaming PC because all their favorite streamers and YouTubers play on PC. It's not 2010 anymore. Walk into any big box store and there's pre built gaming PCs of various price bracket. Even Costco has like 5 diffe

In all those historical cases the second tier card was a cut down version of the top tier one. Now the 4080 and 5080 are a different chip and there's a gulf of a performance gap between them and the top tier. That's the issue I am

Doesn't really help though if it requires an nvidia kernel.

Making comparisons to the 5090 is silly. That thing draws 500W+ and will require a boat anchor of metal to keep it cool. The device they showed is something more along the lines of a mobile dev kit.

Hopefully, the OS support isn't as awful as the Jetson platforms usually are. Unless they change, you'll get 1 or 2 major kernel updates ever and have to do bizarre stuff like install a 6 year old Ubuntu on your x86 PC to run the
