The thing is that NVidia is not really “nailing” ray tracing yet.  Sure their cards do it better but at significant performance hits.  IMHO its not worth the FPS sacrifices to get a slightly prettier screen 

I feel like you can thank the scalpers for that. NVIDIA might have seen how much people were willing to pay. And it probably inflated their ego even more. So seeing people willingly paying well over double the MSRP probably got some gears going in NVIDIA’s head that they’re not charging nearly enough. And the worst…

Same here. “There’s no fucking way - holy shit they’re not exaggerating.”

I remember when one of the big selling points of the 10-series NVidia GPUs was not only increased performance graphically, but also reduced power consumption at the same time. Now they’ve basically just said “fuck it” on efficiency just to pump out bigger numbers. 

me reading the title: lmao what, no way, most cases wouldn’t be able to fit a whole-ass PS5, surely this is just a gross exaggeration

As an anecdotal counterpoint: I’ve worked at a local burger joint (not McDonald’s), and I’ve been working in software engineering for over 20 years now, and 10 of those years were in a SCIF; I can confidently say that nearly all of the government (primarily DoD or NSA) employees I’ve worked with are among the laziest,…

Why do you think the owners do their best to divide the working class?

Oh, I’m 38, was in the military for six years, and have worked two jobs for most of my life. Went to college in all that, at the same time. I know what hard work is. And I know that working fast food is hard work.

“The people working there, aren’t honest like the people that we work with now in the tech industry”

All workers should share in the profits.

QUICK! reply back to every reply you get! Hurry! You’re losing internet points!

“waaaaah, people are complaining because they’re being overworked for a barely (even if they’re lucky) livable wage. This offends my poor sensibilities! I have to suffer through the things in MY life that aren’t fair and nobody ever writes about ME!! Why do their complaints make the news while mine make me look like…

I’m an anti-capitalist, so I don’t think we should be paying anyone anything. We have all the shit everyone needs. I think people should just get the things they need to live a comfortable life, and we can get that if everyone puts in significantly less work than we’re putting in now.

Anything else I can help you with?…

they can be paid more without the cost rising. these places make shitloads of profit. they lie and say “you want a $30 burger?!?!?!” when that’s bullshit. they just want to keep raking in a billion dollars in profit and not pass it on to their employees.

People are rightly tearing you apart because you don’t realize that $16/hour is a shit wage, but also you need to know that the average wage for a McDonald’s crew member is $12.08/hour.

you can fuck off. you were probably a shitty manager too.

Lol, look everybody, we found the entitled douche who’s clearly never worked a retail/service-level job. Do the world a favor and keep your toxic opinions to yourself, the people who are “crying” have a legitimate reason to complain, you’re just acting like an attention-seeking keyboard warrior.

So you have no right to complain about anything your employer asks you to do, then, right? Carry 100 lb bags of feces across a desert for 14 hours straight. iT’s yOuR dAmN jOb!!! Especially because you presumably make more money than them.

I’m 35 and I have no idea why people my age would love this kind of thing.

Ah, the bend-over-and-take-it take.  Always a classic.
