I’ve had good luck recently with Gigabyte. I know it’s circumstantial but my hope is that they are recovering.

Lemmy is just bursting at the seams with miserable fucks like this.

They are saying that because Boeing doesn’t make the engines.

Targeting civilians is ok when you’re fucking around but not when you’re finding out.

Who is calling it a good thing? Nobody in this thread is celebrating the bombing. They are saying it was necessary or at least justified and they are more correct than you.

I’ll make this simple for you: America did not want to be involved in the war that Japan forced them into. They were suffering mass casualties in the pacific theater. The Japanese were torturing US POWs and using suicide kamikaze attacks against US naval vessels which also resulted in huge numbers of casualties.

They figured nuking these guys a couple of times would finally get them to fucking stop, and what do you know? It did. Mission accomplished. End of story.

They were justified because doing that allowed them to finally stop getting killed and tortured by the nation that attacked them first. I too hate the fact that the Japanese imperial government put its people in such peril with so little regard for their safety.

Yep, exactly the same thing. Lmao. Your awful takes are hilarious.

Of course they were victims, but they were victims of their imperialist government at least as much as they were victims of the US if not more so. The Japanese military led an aggressive, savage campaign. They raped and brutalized with impunity. They tortured POWs with impunity. They carried out disgusting medical experiments and vivisections with zero humanity. Perhaps you are familiar with the rape of Nanking? Unit 731?

They sneak-attacked the US and pulled them into the war, and even after they were completely defeated they would. not. stop.

It’s a very complicated issue. Debate will go on forever about whether or not the US nuking Japan was the “right” choice. It will never end because it is based on hypotheticals about what might have happened in an alternate timeline, and what the true motivations behind it might have been.

One thing is very clear though: Japan’s government and their military were beat and they should have surrendered but they did not. Their military continued to operate their systematic campaign of torture and rape.

The US had atomic bombs and responded by using them. Was it the right thing to do? Who knows. Japan’s government fucked around, repeatedly, and their citizens found out.

Putting it all on the US is a level of cope beyond anything science could have imagined.

So sorry to interrupt your circlejerk about this guy’s opinion on 3d V-Cache technology with a tangentially related discussion about 3d V-Cache technology here on the technology community.

I fully understand the point you’re trying to make here, but just as you think my comments added nothing to the discussion, your replies to them added even less.

I was comparing the 7950x and the 7950x3d because those are the iterations that are available right now and what I have been personally comparing as I mentioned. I apologize if I wasn’t clear enough on that point.

My point was that the essence of the take, which I read to be, “CPUs with lower clocks but way more cache only offer major advantages in specific situations” is not particularly off base.

Ok so I am about to build a new rig, and looking at the specs the X3D does seem less powerful and more expensive than the regular 7950.

While I completely agree that this guy seems extremely biased and that he comes off like an absolute dickbag, I don’t think the essence of his take is too far off base if you strip off the layers of spite.

Really, it seems like the tangible benefit of the X3D that most people will realize is that it offers similar performance with lower energy consumption, and thus lower cooling requirements. Benchmarks from various sources seem to bear this out as well.

It seems like a chip that in general performs on par with the 7950x but with better efficiency, and if you have a specific workload that can benefit from the extra cache it might show a significant improvement. Higher end processors these days already have a fuckton of cache so it isn’t surprising to me that this doesn’t benchmark much better than the cheaper 7950x.

You and Tim Apple can both be right on this one.
