I don't know if you're obtuse on purpose or not, but I'll explain in any case: if a person wants to be able to take advantage of adaptive vsync, but they have an NVIDIA GPU their only choices are to buy into NVIDIA's lock-in or buy a new GPU *and* a new display. Both situations are anything but ideal.
Or buy a monitor without adaptive sync and live without it. Or buy a monitor with adaptive sync (freesync) and wait for Nvidia to support it in newer drivers. Or buy a monitor with adaptive sync (freesync) and buy a new gpu that supports open standards. Buying a new monitor or gpu? Sell the old one.
That would be "Both Johns Stewart..." if you want to be grammatically correct.
"John Stewart" is the noun. "John Stewarts" is the plural form of the noun. "Johns Stewart" is a colloquial (slang, grammatically wrong) way of saying "All Johns with a last name of Stewart". It is not the same as pluralizing the proper noun "John Stewart". (And I believe one of the "John Stewarts" they're referring to is actually "Jon Stewart".)
Using an NVIDIA Tegra K1-powered Project Tango dev tablet, you're able to aim your weapon by moving the tablet around in front of you, which provides for a more immersive experience than just tapping/swiping away on the screen alone to move.
This shit was a 5-minute throwaway novelty when it came packed in with the 3DS over 4 years ago. It met a similar rush of disinterest when the Wii U was unveiled and launched.
People don't like gyro controls. They fucking suck.
This is ridiculous, upbeat bullshit intended to convince people that Google is a positive, dynamic, agile, bleeding-edge, open, otherbuzzwords place to work.
You learn no more from failure than you learn from success. There are many ways to fail and few ways to succeed, thus it is better to learn what to do than what not to do. Failure simply slaps people upside the head and makes them think before trying again. Failure is a learning experience if you didn't plan ahead in the first place. Further, there are many scenarios where failing is not an option (e.g., medical, military, and space ventures). Failure in these areas is seen as a shameful mark worthy of criticism, lawsuits, retaliation, etc. more than it is a learning experience.
If Google wants to drive people's cars around or float massive objects above their heads they better not be prancing about on Unicorn Rainbow "Failure is Okay" Island.
Dear Slashdot, I have a 1 and a 3 and I need add them and make 5. How can I add them together to get 5? Please don't tell me 1+3=4. I need it to be 5.
There's zero fucking reason to put an HTPC in a crawl space. Get a small machine and stick it by/behind the TV. Minimal power / video / network cabling, minimal worry of dust / moisture / temperature, minimal issues with connecting to a keyboard / mouse / remote, minimal issues with access when it needs to be physically powered on off (and it will), minimal cost, etc. They even have cases small enough that you can mount them on the TV's VESA mounting holes.
I don't think I'll ever have any need to hit up.fi or.co.uk or.ca or.in or whateverthefuck other third world countries think they deserve to be on the internet. So I block them all in my hosts file.
Woosh. The button would delete the account of the person clicking it. The only thing you need to do in response to trolls is ignore them.
If you're getting a lot of shit from a lot of "trolls" you may want to stop and think about what you're doing that makes you such a big fat target - odds are you're the troll.
Yup. Non compete agreements are blatantly unconstitutional, but they exist everywhere, including in California. In California, they just collude behind closed doors instead of out in the open.
This shit has been rumored ever since the introduction of the first Apple TV. It will at some point finally come to fruition, but it's about as newsworthy as saying the sun will come up at some point in the next 24 hours.
For compute, multiple GTX cards gets you more performance/$ than the Titan, with the same "LOL DOUBLE PRECISION NOT GONNA WORK" caveat. If you're not stuck with CUDA, AMD's offerings are a better choice.
This isn't a compute card - it's an idiot card. For both games and compute, both Nvidia's and AMD's standard "gamer" cards are a better value. The only thing novel about the Titan X is 12 GB accessible by 1 GPU.
The Titan cards ARE aimed at gamers. Have you seen the reviews? Did you see the presentation today? Did you see the double precision compute performance? This is not a compute card. Quadro = Workstation GTX = Gamer Titan = Gamer with more money than sense
You're not doing anything useful on a 12 GB Titan that couldn't do on 8 GB or 6 GB.
If you've bought some integrated solution that requires/prefers CUDA / nVidia cards you buy nVidia and piss the money away on Quadros. Otherwise you go with AMD for compute. Nvidia's double precision performance on their workstation cards is a joke (and almost completely absent on the Titans). There's a reason Bitcoin mining was done on AMD GPUs.
Of course it does. Supply is controlled so tightly by a few to the point where:
- A drop in demand has no corresponding effect on price.
- A temporary increase in demand has a long-lasting increase on price.
- Supply is artificially constrained in order to jack up profits.
Supply and demand don't exist in a post-industrial economy. Once the manufacturing power is concentrated into the hands of a few people / corporations, collusion is easy, competition is pointless, and getting fucked is the norm. Anything sufficiently complicated (building cars, running a telecommunications network, running a taxi service, practicing law or medicine or any other enshrined "profession", etc.) is run by an established group of people with the investments, equipment, rights, and powers necessary. They then actively seek regulation, attack new players, and buyout / sue to death anyone who dares to compete in order to protect their established death grip on the sector.
Once China/Taiwan/Malaysia finish their transition, it's game over for supply/demand until someone can stabilize Africa to the point of industrializing it and exploiting it for cheap labor.
The reinvented a wheel (a cluster) that was useless (an "educational" cluster) and did it using low end, shitty parts (Raspberry Pis), then reinvented the software side of it, three fucking times, until they settled on a Frankenstein amalgam of "Node.js, Bootstrap and Angular".
You mean the one that doesn't exist yet? No large screen phone is going to last 'several days' without charging, thus making them 'pieces of shit', according to you.
The definitive "big phone" line is the Galaxy Note series. I have an aging Note II and I still get over 2 days on it. The Droid Maxx was marketed specifically as having a huge fucking battery that gave you days of usage. Pretty much any large phone that isn't the Nexus 6 or iPhone 6 Plus has a similarly capable battery.

What's the problem with FOSS driver? I haven't had any issues in years. Runs anything available at steam with 7950 at least.
It's just an nVidiot screaming the same old bullshit from over a decade ago.

Use the 1 twice?
There's only 1 1.

What's wrong with supporting a video game created by a pedophile / jew / pro-skub / nigger / fag / Stalin / congressman / horse ?
I expect an answer.
They're ruining the world. Fuck them all. The world should be offensive and rude and nasty.
Yup.

Let me guess - they're going to start taking gaming seriously in 2016?

You're a retard.
Pretty ironic and makes for great headlines, but this *has* to be a major embarrassment.
Shouldn't Panda's product test organization be fired as a matter of course?
I can't see how this kind of bug got through release testing - shouldn't release testing ensure that the product runs after update?
myke
You're assuming they test anything.
Hint: Most companies don't test their incremental updates beyond "Does it compile?" and "Does it launch?".
That's what I thought, but I've had the issue in 2 apartments and 1 house.
