Here we go again. $2500 rumors so when it releases at only $1999 MSRP everyone will be so relieved and impulse buy.

This may be a silly question but if I were to compile a game, upload it to my own server and have a direct download link (so separate from Steam or other similar services), then how exactly would Unity know how many downloads or installs of that game have been made?

We only live one time - something that people really seem to just ignore. And (unpaid) commuting takes up way too large a chunk of it. It's not a matter of moving closer either many companies aren't in desirable locations. And what may be desirable now, might not be in 5 years (i.e bachelor life...

Would this work well for virtual desktop? I have some sciatic issues popping up (yay aging!) and am trying to work a little on the ground with a VR headset so my back can relax, but the sweet spot on the 8kx isn't as large as I'd like - too much head turning!

The dollar is stable day-to-day but not year-to-year - and it's not some marginal amount either, but by an amount that heavily eclipses the average pay raise. Bitcoin is also stable, just on a much smaller time frame of minute-to-minute but not day-to-day. But since a send and swap to USDC (or...

3090 may be having some problems so I've taken it down until I figure things out (or it goes out for RMA).

Over the years I've come to realize that the drive for financial independence comes not really from the desire not to work, but from the desire to return to youth. Work is just something that happens to not only get in the way of that, but it something that is only part of the real clown world...

Look, by the time that gets figured out - Ethereum will likely either be $0 or some value far exceeding today's and far less volatile. If you don't want to gamble or speculate before then, that's fine and I can respect that. But don't act surprised like "it's expected" we should able to predict...

Because fundamentally they are not ponzi schemes. The ponzi scheme argument is fully, and I mean fully, countered by the fact that you need the native token to pay for any transaction on the network. Let's take Ethereum for example: I send you Ethereum (or since you hate volatility, I will send...

I played MMORPGs 2 decades ago and got a glimpse of what the crypto markets would be like: any unregulated markets are going to have plenty of that. Actually, scratch that: /r/wsb proves the same thing happens in regulated markets. It's no one's responsibility but your own, with what you do...

So you quoted a post I made where I said "in a few years", within less than a year?! Is that some kind of response to Bitcoin being back above $20K despite what all you crypto haters were so sure would finally destroy it? "This time is different" - works both ways. ;) I've been developing in...

Also add VR to this. AMD has worse frame timing so VR will feel worse with an AMD GPU than Nvidia at identical FPS. But otherwise the 7900XTX easily. It matches/exceeds the 4080 in raster performance and is $200 cheaper.

Suprim Liquid X in stock at NE: https://www.newegg.com/msi-geforce-rtx-4090-rtx-4090-suprim-liquid-x-24g/p/N82E16814137759?Item=N82E16814137759&Description=RTX%204090&cm_re=RTX_4090-_-14-137-759-_-Product&quicklink=true This is getting too easy now.

Ok Newegg I didn't really need to know that. The Gigabyte model even has a "limit 5 per customer" that you can add to cart. To you scalpers - get ready to dump at loss and enjoy your 13% Ebay/PP or 15% restocking fees. :)
