Only because I can sell it, anything involving dealing with nvidia drivers is not an upgrade
Myeah, a Radeon would make me far happier as Linux gamer
She must have some big hands to grab it like that
Yeah, I wonder what she originally held. It's going to be NSFW, isn't it?
I have no idea what's going on in the scene, since I've never seen it, but it looks like the original is a purple bottle of some elixir.
It's a potion that dissolves clothes. Frieren (the white-haired elf) intended to give it to their male party member for his birthday.
Yep, found it, fixed it
To be honest, once Arm and RISC-V becomes mainstream, I'd probably play in low settings with a iGPU - matter of fact, I've been eyeing on the 780M for the same reason. GPU is cool, sure, but SoC and SoM is much convinient.
Small portable home computing devices that you take with you and connect to a screen/ peripherals.
Local GPU and AI power servers in your garage or rented as an online servers.
I have been envisioning this for a while. My Desktop is in a state of “finished” i may build one more “gaming pc” after this but then i am hoping the future is ready.
I also have a similar vision. A miniature NAS/desktop, from where I can ssh to a light-weight, battery efficient laptop. And a modular, chonky Thinkpad-like cyberdeck with good battery, for on-the-move hacking. Localized compute unit, with the option to house multiple upgradable, System-on-a-Module may be a part of the modern smart-city home as a default , I'd guess?
How does one get started renting online servers? Are there any requirements or licenses or anything like that?
99% uptime seems stressful but awesome
You can spin up a cheap VPS in a matter of minutes for less than five dollars. You do not need anything but a credit card usually. If you want a dedicated server all to yourself then it gets significantly more expensive but no less straightforward. If you want to put your own hardware online you’ll have to look at a collocation seller or arrange something with an ISP.
Of course if your home internet connection upstream is good enough, and your ISP permissive enough you could also just do dynamic DNS and have everything running off that.
Personally i am huge fan of owning my own data so i only have experience with self hosting from a home server.
You can probably find places pretty easily if you look for “cloud computing”, “cloud gpu”
I am pretty sure you don’t need licenses to start. Renting a last gen gpu may be expensive though (pay by the hour) this way of decentralized compute is becoming more and more common for developers.
I recommend waiting a few more years and keeping an eye on how services like nvidia cloud gaming evolve and how mainstream working with virtual machines becomes for the average office worker.
this is part of the reason i want modular laptops.
how come we could come up with standards to install dgpus in the 70s but can't now? give me a convenient soc with possibility of upgrading later if i want to, framework style.
You should check out Jeff Geerling, he's made a video on SoM-based cluster computing. I'd love to see a future for a cluster computer with the capability to play games.
Having spent five years on Linux with an nVidia card on my previous laptop, I can safely say my thrills are exactly nil. Hearing the words "nVidia Optimus" will legit put me in a bad mood.
Men only want one thing and it's fucking disgusting (in price)
Are there still some left, just asking...?
