Gah, enforced enshittification with model deprecation is so annoying.

Yeah, moreso since that's the highest nvidia card this gen available with a sane power connector.

12VHPWR has to be one of the weirdest industry decisions I've seen in a while. So far I thought I had been able to avoid it, but recently bought a power supply that uses it on the modular cable connector.

But it isn't really that uncommon either, I had a suzuki motorcycle that used a connector with 15 amp pins to handle 30 amps of current on one pin. I eventually concluded the only reason that connector was in the harness was to ease assembly and just cut it out entirely and soldered the junction together.


Oh yeah totally agree with that one. I hate Molex connectors but the new one is just stupid.

This card might've been forgivable with 16GB or a $149 MSRP, so of course they didn't do either...

Ten years ago nobody would belive that AMD would have over double Intel's market cap in 2025. And at least somewhat surprised that nVidia would be about 10x that.

Remember too that from the Nokia board POV selling the phone division to MS was a $1B+ dollar exit.

In the corresponding interview, Bill makes several pointed remarks that the state of the code published—or at least he code as it was when presented to him for comment—is not his QuickDraw code.

Bringing it back to the other comments, they should do EN->EN translation on the transcription.


Fun fact, the DVD Forum just shut down so the DVD trademark is all but unenforced now.


BTW the writers also previously wrote WarGames, and you can see a lot of the same fingerprints...


Yup, one would think the Simpsons would have been fully HD remastered by now.
