An x1 slot is an x1 slot, the PCIe version will downgrade but there will still only be one lane because that’s all the slot physically has connections for. It will effectively be a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot.

Pretty sure if you put a PCIe 3.0 card in a 4.0 slot the slot will drop to 3.0, and 1 PCIe 3.0 lane probably isn’t going to work great with a card meant for 4 of them.

Coincidentally(?), today Humble launched a bundle that includes both Pillars of Eternity games.

I was going to start PoE on Game Pass soon, but I think real-time with pause was what turned me off of Baldur’s Gate 1 back in the day, so I guess I’ll wait for the patch.

The reason why those two new PSUs only have one 8-pin connector is because they both sport two 12V-2x6 sockets instead. The company does offer PSUs with up to three 8-pin and one 16-pin power slots.

The only reason why anyone would want to use two 12V-2x6 cables is to have a PC with two Nvidia graphics cards but given that SLI is dead and long gone on the latest generation of GeForce GPUs, dual setups are purely for AI, to let you do your own training and inference.

I’m not sure about the AI angle. The product pages for the PSUs don’t mention AI, and no company is going to make a product for AI and not mention AI.

No, because they can afford the legal fees. It will be worst for smaller sites. From the article:

With Section 230, if a website (or a user!) wants to defend its right to keep content up (or take it down), winning such a case typically costs around $100,000. Without those protections, even if you’d ultimately win on First Amendment grounds, you’re looking at about $2 million in legal fees. For Meta or Google, that’s a rounding error. For a small news site or blog, it’s potentially fatal. And this includes users who simply forward an email or retweet something they saw. Section 230 protects them as well, but without it, they’re at the whims of legal threats.

RSS works too. Just add .rss to the end of the old.reddit URL for the sub, e.g. old.reddit.com/subreddit1.rss

The headline is misleading. The full quote from the CEO is

My first message would be, if you’re not comfortable, don’t let your kids be on Roblox.

That should just be common sense.

My father is retired and still needs to use PowerPoint. He is very bad at retirement.

I guess that explains why the iOS Mail app asked me to sign into my Outlook.com account again. I switched away from the Outlook app last week and I was thinking the Mail app must only be able to stay logged in for a few days at a time.

The OECD has been working on an agreement that will probably include standards, but Canada and other countries got tired of waiting.

These taxes usually have minimum revenue requirements that smaller players wouldn’t meet. Canada’s DST requires at least $20m in Canadian digital services revenue and €750m in global revenue.

Not having a dedicated app on the LG TV is not an option.

When was the last time you checked? Jellyfin has had an app on LG’s webOS store for a couple of years now, although older TVs didn’t get it until a few months later. I’d given up on it and bought a lifetime Emby Premiere licence by the time by TV was finally supported.

Microsoft killed Wordpad

DOJ is controlled by the fascists, so investigating nvidia would really only be a minor distraction from investigating and intimidating Trump’s many, many enemies.

I swear nvidia heard about AMD’s release plans and decided they needed to be first, regardless of supply.

The Enterprise LTSC versions will be supported for a few more years, regular support for Pro is ending in October same as Home. Some of the worst stuff like Co-Pilot hasn’t made it in to LTSC (yet).

massgrave.dev has .isos and instructions

They rewrote the taskbar and Start menu for Windows 11, and left out stuff like being able to move the taskbar or even have separate taskbar items for each instance of an application. Rewriting the whole OS would be a disaster.

The law doesn’t matter. With Musk’s position in the government this will basically end up as extortion: Settle or I’ll make things difficult for you.
