    Maybe if reading is hard for you, Slashdot is not the correct community for you to participate in.

    I mean, the SID chip has been an integral part of so-called EDM, hip-hop, you name it for 15 years now. Pixel graphics makes up a significant number of the top games in the Console/PC/indie/mobile space (feel free to google sales for Into the Breach, Dead Cells, or Stardew Valley.), to say nothing of the runaway success of the NES and SNES Mini.

    Gosh , and to think some suggest slashdot seems like its out-of-touch and skewing way towards "get off my lawn" 50 somethings.

  3. You know what, I'm going to say it again. Downmod me "troll" all you want, you pussy little incel bitches reeeeeeeeeeeeing about SJWs.

    Wow! What an amazingly legitimate source you've cited I'm the Daily Mail! Beyond that here's another bunch of hambeast Slashdot "independent thinkers"" crying about all of those SJWs and jacking each other off for it. Snooooooooooooooooze.

    Ohhhhhhhh, ok, I get it now. It's they who are the fascists not the person (you) who determines the value and worth of what others might study and trades they might pursue. Gotcha. Thanks for showing us who the real authoritarians are here, Mike.

    But don't worry, someone will come along and tell you why this post is part of the white hetero-normative male patriarchy oppression that is keeping the aggrieved parties unemployed. Because successful people are evil!

    Oh really? Oh who might that be that might come along and do that? Would it be someone you read on twitter? Would it be a poster on an internet forum? Would you hear about it from your chosen outrage outlet?

    Frankly, all I hear from you is that you need to leave the hosue more, interact with other human beings, and very seriously consider talk therapy for the persecution you believe you suffer from.

  10. Oh, the poor rugged individualists of Slashdot! So victimized by the inequities of these selfish ivy-tower academics! *THIS* will be the time that it all finally changes, all you guys have to do is virtue signal your way to the top of the engineering meritocracy. You showed those stupid liberals this time, guys!

    My favorite part about this whole thing is that you can bitch and cry and bitch and cry, and But this fucking jackass and that walking gunt "editor" of his are done. Poor snowflakes. So sad. So vicitimized by academia.

  11. And note: this is why the alt-right is gaining ground slowly, but steadily.

    No, they aren't. You tell yourself that they are because you need to belong to a group to feel validated and feel your identity secure in a world where your life is nothing but insecurity and your personal sense of self worth in the toilet.

    And, rather than making your own meaningful lasting contributions, you'd rather frequent pathetic internet forums where you and other shut-ins that comprise in inconsequential faction of entitled 20 something neckbeards and bitch-fascists tell yourselves that you are keepers of some greater knowledge and "wisdom".

    . but the truth is that no one gives a fuck about your stupid "alt-right", and the reality shows them to be dwindling, just like every farcial and meanspirited movements oif societies rejects that's occured, oh, the last 200 years or so.

    Have a great day, chief!

    Just want to make this clear: it's your assertion that the Slashdot community makes purchasing decisions on HP laptops based on CSGO, which "professionals" commonly are using these laptops at 1024x768 running in 16:9 instead of 4:3. Even more, you believe you are representative of people who might purchase this laptop.

    To tell us that this laptop is coming out in July? (as the article states). In any case, RTX 2070 or not, it's not pushing enough frames for a display like this to matter. Personally, I prefer reliable hardware with warranty coverage whose technicians don't treat me with absolute contempt when I try to get them to honor the coverage I purchased, causing me to have to email every vice president I can find locally here in Houston to get a simple motherboard swap done. Fuck HP.

    Again, your stawmen and argumenum ad reductum are fucking tiring and tedious. honestly they're beneath me. Whatever imaginary discussion you believe is taking place in this country vis a vis capitalism as a result of the propaganda you ingest willingly, I honestly don't care. Beyond that, stop blaming"socialism" on Venezuela when the problem, ignoring the corruption of the state run oil industry and resulting operational inefficiencies, is the collapse in the price of oil and their monoculture, undiversified.economy. you trolls are so eager with your "soshulisms bullshit", the resulting intellectual dishonesty is just fucking sad. Read a book. By the way, half my money is frac-ed directly out of the ground, so don't fucking tell me I don't know what I'm talking about. You can go back to your circlejerk now.

    I think it's adorable to talk to me about "funding the discussion" or whatever, as you build a Venezuela strawman for what you and those of your ilk imagine progressive views.of economics and capitalism to be. Positively adorable. And particularly telling that the only argument that's ever able to be produced is "b .b...b..but Venezuela" whenever it's suggested that the neoliberal distortion of capitalism might not be the healthy way.

Sandy Bridge is great, but particularly for media workloads, my Coffee Lake absolutely wipes the floor with the _Ivy Bridge_ it replaced, to say nothing of things like single-core performance for tasks like emulation. You're probably right that for ordinary, everyday MS Office and Internet stuff it's not that big a deal, but to say 7 years of development results in a 30% increase in performance is silly.
