Not really related, but I hate how everyone views the Lord of the Rings fanbase as meganerds with absolutely no lives.

I have yet to meet a no life meganerd who was actually a LotR fan, and I have yet to meet a hardcore LotR fan who wasn't either a hipster or inexplicably metal as fvck.

i can't tell if you're joking or not
really

you've got people here who legitimately think the prequels are flawless

so yeah
this is clearly a parody of threads about Peter Cushing's resurrection.

it's been months since anyone has mentioned that
and I just now thought about it while watching TPM

sorry I don't watch Ep I more often

yeah fuck you

you can't tell me how to live my life, flat and lifeless is my essence

Do you tell all the women that?
there's a precious irony to this in a number of ways

The first time I saw the film, I didn't know it wasn't really him, and rewatching it knowing that I still never see any signs that he was CGI.

tfw dogecoin is 10x more valuable than when I lost all of mine in the great shutdown parade of the Grorious PR of C.
I was selling it all because dogecoin was at its 2014 peak and I had some on a market when the Chinese government pulled the plug on dozens of website.

Bitcoin has a strong market presence and Ethereum miners are currently adversely affecting their own market potential with business practices that throw caution to the wind. Bitcoin is rapidly approaching stability as mining becomes next to impossible, and Bitcoin mining is driving the computer industry forward and pushing for bigger, better processors and specialty mining units. Ethereum miners are currently in a buying frenzy for Radeon cards that has left much of the gaming industry very upset, especially since so many new AMD builds are being done right now and nobody can get a GPU that isn't Nvidia.

Ultimately conflict between the two groups does not support Ethereum's bottom line in the long run, as gamers have massive influence on the GPU market, and the lack of availability of Radeon cards will likely cause gamers to become more dependent on Nvidia anywhere from the next year to the next five years.

After the buying frenzy ends, due to overmining of Ethereum and the need for machines developed with mining in mind increases, Radeon will see an almost sudden halt  in market presence.

How does this affect Ethereum?
Communal mining will still be largely done on GPU, much like bitcoin mining communities still are.
Radeon will still be the best option for them, but dying market presence with gamers due to increased dependency on Nvidia while Radeon was unavailable means that development and ultimately product quality will drop in coming years.

This will make it infamously difficult to get into mining, and create an exclusivity to the currency that will drop market diversity, and therefore speculation substantially.

This will create market stability.

I predict bitcoin will become stable before Ethereum, but Ethereum being stable, and not impossible to mine, even if just a little later down the line, will mean that miners will own a huge portion of the market. If you know even the littlest bit about economics, then you understand that when there's more supply than demand prices fall.

I consider these two types of stability "Natural" and "Artificial".

Natural stability comes from a currency having hit it's production cap, even if just for the time being, and trade becoming the sole form of variation on the market. Natural stability presents an opportunity for, but not a guarantee of, growth.

Artificial stability comes from a currency having become traded between a less diverse group of people, who generally already hold large sums and are on the same page about value. This type of stability guarantees a decline in value.

"Stability" simply means that growth fluctuation will slow to a rate seen in foreign capital trade between first world countries.

A good example of natural vs artificial is the difference between country valued by a country's GDP and currency on the gold standard. GDP is hard to change and changes slowly, creating stability. There is a finite quantity of gold, creating stability. Both still have value fluctuation based on speculation. However, people are always finding new gold.

This isn't the best example, because in the last century we have discovered a myriad of uses for gold outside of bling, and the real world value has actually more than doubled in the last century. In fact its one of the most useful materials on the planet. But we're not going to fins out that Ethereum can be melted down and used in spacecraft.



TL;DR Ethereum miners have bitten the hand that feeds and now it's only a matter of time before the trade market shrinks.

Why did you choose the most edgiest/emo character in the show?

I didn't really think this name thing out.
Because 666 was the next number.

I did think it out.

Butch Hartman is still milking the fuck out of The Fairly Oddparents and turned it into shit
I think his role in the franchise today is similar to Stephen Hillenburg in Spongebob.

The money is good and he doesn't give a fuuuuuuck and only steps in for big things.

Butch Hartman's work is nuanced with certain rules, The Fairly Oddparents threw most of that out the window years ago after the series had its first proper ending.

im no expert but i value the extra multitasking power over single core power
Yeah having two processing threads to each core is a huge boon for people who aren't trying to Twitch stream Japanese onahole VR games on ultra while 4K video chatting with their mom. Then you might not want to hyper thread. (or do that at all)

Ryzen is fucking great for having 2.43e+11 tabs open in chrome while rendering in professional video software though.

My big problem is Ethereum miners have bought up all the Radeon cards and now Ryzen's perfect match is virtually unavailable on the market.

Verb BTFO
Google can't blow me out by saying blatantly wrong things.



Google says only men can rape, so I guess it must be true!
Part of speech is still right

also women cannot rape
there's no such thing as "lesbian rape" and if it's not gay, a man is always consenting

Perhaps the Democratic Party should change its platform to something that isn't retarded and maybe I'll consider voting for them.
Or settle on a political strategy other than "You don't have a choice, vote for us or everyone will die."

This is America for fuck's sake, you'll never scare more people than the number you'll send into an indignant fit.
gj admitting that trump supporters are petulant children
all humans are petulant children

That's why democracy doesn't work.
But democracy is the law of the land, rather, Republican Federalism is.

There's not enough democracy in the US government to say it's Democratic, though at some lower municipal and county levels it is.

It isn't, that message was private to Nuka, who in typical fashion told himself he was a decent human being for half an hour or so and then went off to have a giggle.

But since I'm not a little bitch like Verbatim I'm not going to throw a fit until someone comes to wipe my ass, and in doing so scare off a number of decent members.
What the fuck are you rambling about lmao

Verbatim scared off members now?
Yeah.

He does it all the time actually.
But I'm referring to a specific and very public incident in this case.

What? I thought people knew AMD has a fighting chance right now and that Intel seems to be scrambling, according to what's going on at computex with... i forget who, but companies weren't prepared for the last minute decisions Intel is making
Days after launch Reddit declared Ryzen 7 a total failure and an unusable CPU.

The image only really started recovering after Ryzen 5 came out and poorfags started buy them up and nobody wanted i5s anymore. That's when Intel started worrying.

Hardcore 'muh rig' gamers wouldn't touch the R7, so it was pretty much just the AMD 'how fucking far can I push this processor' overclock crew was using them. But R5 users reported good things, and Ryzen 5 started getting called the next mainstay in non-hardcore PC gaming. Magazines and shit said 'move over i5' and that's when the Peesee Mustard Rice crew started buying Ryzen 7s.

Personally, I was pumped for the Ryzen 7 launch, but the internet killed it for me.
Now that word on the street is getting more positive I can't wait to get my hands on one.

I've been practicing my build skills for a week.
I've disassembled, dusted, and rebuilt every computer I have in prep.
My friends and I went to Fry's a couple days ago and they bought some PC parts and I put them together for them to get familiar with assets that are standard on this year's mobos and some of the newer drive mounts.

I remember when drive cages used to be massive steel boxes and now they're neat little shelves or clips.

Def gonna build one of these before the end of the year.

How does it feel to know that the Ryzen has burst through Intel Propaganda on Reddit and come into it's own as the #1 processor in terms of bang for your buck? Yeah, even for gamers.
YouTube


Beyond that it cuts the time for rendering media in half when compared to the last generation of processors that we were buying and praising just a year and a half ago. Literally twice as deadly as the chipset that holds the world record for fastest clock time.
YouTube


AMD is still of course the go to choice for anyone and everyone who wants to overclock, and in keeping with this spirit, AMD couples the unit with an easy-to-install air cooler that is next to silent and has the raw chill factor to keep your CPU that has been overclocked as much as 30% nice and cool, no messy water coolant required until you near the upper eschelon of overclocking.
YouTube


AMD is slated to launch the Ryzen 3 series and a Ryzen Mobile chipset by the end of the year.

The fog is lifting, and nobody is buying that Ryzen is shit anymore.
