Ti Edition

  • Nvidia's new RTX 4090 Ti is here.  (Tom's Hardware)

    Well, they call it the RTX 5090, but compared to the previous model the chips is 25% larger and has 25% cores, and the card uses 25% more power and costs 25% more money to produce 25% better performance.

    Which tells us exactly how the other cards in this generation will perform - maybe 10% faster than the previous generation, entirely due to additional processing cores and faster memory.  The technological advance here is zero.

    Though the 4000 series was already very good.  We could just do without the lies.

3 "Out of an abundance of caution, OpenAI is also requiring supervision for some tasks, like banking transactions, the CUA and Operator could perform mostly on their own. Users will need to take over to put in credit card information, for example. OpenAI says that Operator doesn't collect or screenshot any data."

And I'm totally wearing pants right now and not jammin' out half naked to Bananarama.

5 Funny, I apparently saw it in 2018 and searched out that other series that flashes in the end.  And never watched it. Still sitting in my Batch folder....

Apple pies are delicious. But never mind apple pies. What colour is a green orange?
