@thatbrickster I got into AMD with a Duron 1300, then a Sempron 2800 (32 bit), then moved to a Phenom II 1100t. Bought it in december 2011 when FX was just starting to come out, and I didn't see the point on risking it with the new tech when I could buy for the same or less the culmination of the Phenom line, and back then they intended to stay on AM3+ for the foreseeable future so I thought "oh well if I need to I'll just switch to a new one in a few years"
Still using it and everything works perfectly, only upgrade from 2011 to now was a new GPU and I play a lot of new games which shows constant upgrades aren't needed anymore as they used to be. Performance climb has stalled in the last decade. -
@thatbrickster @roka I'd still use them if my video card had VGA or at least DVI-I and I had the space to comfortably fit a big one.
-
@thatbrickster I haven't actually used FX processors. My father and my cousin use them, but I'm on the last Phenom II made. I'm comparing it to the ~$900 Ryzen with 16 cores and 32 threads that came out a bit ago.
-
@roka @thatbrickster Yeah, those things were amazing back in the late 90s
If not because of bloat we could still do pretty much everything but play games and HD video on them too. -
@thatbrickster This. Latest AMD processor has 122% (or was it 128? doesn't really matter though) better performance than the one I'm using that came out in late 2010, with ten more physical cores, 26 more threads, and a higher power consumption. You really don't need cutting edge hardware unless you're trying to make a 3d movie or something.

@lenneth @karen IMO good ethics in this kind of thing comes down to displaying the same opinion of the person in death as you did in life, not being better or worse towards it because of what's expected or because they can't fight back.
-
@Lenneth @karen there is a matter of propriety though - and imo that applies to both those who espouse how much death of a person sucks as well as those celebrating

@delores Seems a bit more different in spelling than old Castillian is to the modern equivalent. I enjoy old Castillian/Spanish a lot because it's pretty much the same as today's just several orders of magnitude more fancy and complicated. Also with many Fs instead of Ss

The Kotaku review of Detroit: Become Human was powerful and really shook my beliefs about gaming, society, and expectations. While long, I felt it didn't have a lot to say, which made it easier to digest. The subtle Trump reference connected with me on a core level. I didn't see what David Cage was trying to do but now I have a better understanding. This is gaming. THIS is a review. Journalists take note. Powerful. https://grapeposter.club/attachment/1917329

Gargoyles is a relic of an era when Disney wasn't a bunker for SJW Potato Knishess and actually dared write good stuff suitable for people of all ages.
