"TSMC and Samsumg have fabs in the USoA"
How long before the tangerine terror fucks that up?
There's no reason to kill ARC because it's only taking sales Nvidia didn't want.
It also depended on low speed interfaces to processors. You used to be able to accelerate computers which came with a 68k chip by slapping a daughterboard with a faster CPU on it into the CPU socket. That's not practical today.
Side note, anyone want a radius accelerator for Mac SE?
"Biden's effort to reduce student loan debt has ended."
Too bad he didn't fight as hard for that as he did to prevent us from discharging such debts through bankruptcy, that fake fuck.
"Sounds like you are salty because you aren't getting the score you want."
I'm salty because a bunch of clowns who provably don't know how credit scores work are trying to tell me how credit scores work while I have proof that they don't.
"Simply paying off 1-2 credit cards in full every month while keeping your utilization low for ~5 years will get you into the high 700s, which is all you need for any practical purpose."
I did literally all of that and I'm in the low 700s where I don't qualify for first time home buyers assistance, so no and no. Your faith in the system working as advertised is just sad.
Basing a person's credit score on credit usage rather than payment history is part of the system's bullshit.
Sort of, but lenders aren't looking for people who have good financial sense.
Lenders are looking for people who will borrow a lot of money, then continue paying on that loan. Which is not the same thing as having financial sense.
but my score has gone down as I have behaved faithfully and paid off my debts on schedule.
That is very possible because having open (especially long term) debts improves your credit rating. Once you pay it off completely, it's not open anymore.
The components of a credit score aren't some state secret.
No, they're a lie.
FICO publishes a helpful infographic.
The infographic is propaganda, and answers zero questions about how the factors which make up each group are actually calculated.
If you've truly kept your utilization low and paid all bills on time, you should double check there hasn't been some identity theft.
I have been watching Experian. There hasn't been anything unrelated to me appearing on my credit report, but my score has gone down as I have behaved faithfully and paid off my debts on schedule. Anyone who believes what FICO claims about scoring is a fool, and anyone who then goes on to repeat their propaganda for them is also a tool — and not the sharpest one in the shed.
their AI chips aren't as good at running LLMs as Nvidia's CUDA cards.
Quite, but AMD is *miles* closer than Intel was to being a realistic threat on this front.
This is very true, and perhaps continuing to close the gap is their strategy for defeating CUDA, since they sure aren't putting enough effort in to do it with ROCm. I'd love to see it, I just don't expect it to work. Happy to be proven wrong, though.
ok whats your score, are you living as your true self with a score in the 600s
My score was 790 a year ago. I faithfully have made my student loan payments, paid off a dental loan, and increased my available credit, and my score is now about 720. Credit scores are a scam and basing anything but applications for credit on them should be a felony.
It's even easier to run *old* windows games on *old* windows...
That's true, but you also can't run old Windows on new hardware, and getting graphics performance out of Windows running in a VM is only even vaguely possible with vmware. Virtualbox's video drivers for Windows are shit, and QEMU/KVM's are even worse. Hyper-V's aren't great either. So you have to keep an old machine around for old windows if you want to run old windows games on windows.
