Trans is Trans in c/conservative@lemmy.world
[–] 5oap10116@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I've had a project involving a mixture of cis-polybutadiene/trans-polybutadiene and I've just been trying to turn my brain off while describing that "The concern is that an increase in trans is not specifically an issue with respect to the proportional amount of cis. Trans does not cause a problem with the overall material."

If 10% is decimation, is this quadragimation?

Can I not be jazzed about the collab? Geez. It's 2 of my favorite artists arguably randomly coming together to make magic.

I consider it an aesop album x Tobacco collab album so therefore it is also an aesop album

That's just vague enough to keep the SS off your back. Good job. Pun intended on SS

Still running my 1080. Had dual 1080s but nothing supports SLI so I just made my wife a new comp with the extra one. Looks like I'll never go back to Nvidia though. Their stock value got the best of them and now they're bullshitting for shareholder returns.

Wonder if there will actually be any consequences from the neutered CFPB, SEC, and the like.

Feel like they're just pretending to have some "adults" in the room to reduce concern.

Unfortunately I think financially destroying the program and/or replacing art with fascist propaganda are the most probable outcomes as well as the most positive outcomes for fascism.

Should I pull the trigger on a new build now? (lemmy.world)
 

My current build is:

  • 1080 GTX
  • i7 7600
  • 32gb DDR4
  • 512Gb SSD (my worst decision)
  • Built in 2016
  • Running great knocks on wood

Due to the outcome of the election (not getting into how I feel about that), tariffs and electronics trade is likely to be a big issue. And I keep seeing articles about how pcs and consoles are likely to have a massive jump in price (40% is the # I keep seeing).

Ive been meaning to wholesale and make a new build for a while now because any update would likely mean a new mobo which in turn would mean updates on everything else. I'm not in the best situation financially and have a baby on the way but I could totally stand to drop ~$3K on another "future proof" build.

I guess the question is, should I pull the trigger now before the new administration takes power? Assuming 40% increase, a $3k pc would be $4.2k or I stick with $3k and sacrifice the difference in power and future proofing.

The alternative would be delve into lighter and "retro" games in the future and just be content with that. There's a few "2070RTX minimum" games I'd like to play right now and it will only get worse in that respect as time moves on.

Note: not looking to discuss the new administration in any other way but this. Please no political bullshit.

Removed my SLI and extra 1080, started up fine, froze, and now video won't display (lemmy.world)

Im building my wife a PC and now that my SLI is useless (for a few years now), I figured I'd give her my extra GPU.

I disabled the SLI in the control panel, powered down, popped the SLI and 2nd GPU out and gave my wifes pc the extra 1080. My PC started up fine, I booted up a game, and about 10 min in, the screen froze for about 10 seconds and then appeared to restart and now I have no video output. Did I brick my gpu? Any ideas on how to proceed?

I'm only panicking a lot.

Can y'all take a look at this and tell me if I'm doing anything dumb or if you have any suggestions? (pcpartpicker.com)
 

Trying to build a pink case for the wife that's relatively future proof. No gaming, just web browsing, music (not production), YouTube, and ms office stuff.

The problem is that I've only built two machines and this is the first time I'm doing a color scheme. Im also stuck between DDR4 and 5. I don't think she needs the power but if I don't get the 5 now I feel like I'd have to replace the mobo if she needs to upgrade.

If theres any suggestions yall have to make it more compatible, more pink, cheaper, or more powerful without spending much more, please roast me on it (don't change the case though she's set on that).

Please note that I use it to learn so when I'm stumped, I go to maps and figure it out.

PC wakes up randomly and sometimes logs in after being put to sleep (lemmy.world)
 

Built a gaming PC back in 2018 (windows 10, GTX1080, i7, eset security).

For the past year or so it wakes up every now and then and for a few months it started waking up to my logged in desktop screen. Hasnt happened for about a month or so but it still eakes up even with my mouse and keyboard disconnected. I don't do any tormenting or anything sketchy. It's a really clean machine built for gaming, YouTube, office work stuff. I don't visit any "low brow" sites (that's what my tablet (not connected to the PC) is for). It didn't start happening after any specific download that I can remember.

Anyway, I can't find anything relevant online that helps me so I figured I'd ask here if anyone knows what this is about.
