Maybe he'll start working for the feds or something for a reduced sentence. Certainly smells like the beginnings of a book or movie worthy story.

The fact you're not taking into account regarding the 12100F is the frequency that CPU runs at: the optimal one.

That's what I don't like about this chart. Any old CPU can win the efficiency crown if you down clock it enough (in the case of the i3-1200F with factory down clock). That is not a meaningful method for game efficiency analysis as we will dip way below 60fps with a 12100F. The 7800X3D/7950X3D using only 61W/65W is a second strange point. You will get better efficiency at these lower watts but why aren't they running at 120W as designed? There is a specific bug with Cyberpunk that prevents it from using AMD multi-threading. It could be that AMD CPUs are less utilized and thus run at lower wattage which increases efficiency.

A couple of things:

1) You're not taking into account any IPC improvements that each new architecture brings to the table. That should be enough to put your "downclocka CPU enough to make it win the efficiency crown" statement. No it wont because it will use less power, but the other CPUs will still be able to do more at the same power thanks to the improvements they have.

2) This is not about downclocking or limiting CPUs until they look good. GamersNexus tested those processors out of the box, at its regular power and frequency settings, and AMD was more efficient out of the box. Then, they limited both CPUs to the same power to see how they would behave with both of them using the same amount of power, to see if Intel appears to be less efficient because they push those chips the most, and the result was still the same.

Simply put, AMD has a more efficient architecture than Intel.

Intel CEO laments Nvidia's 'extraordinarily lucky' AI dominance, claims it coulda-woulda-shoulda have been Intel

https://www.pcgamer.com/intel-ceo-laments-nvidias-extraordinarily-lucky-ai-dominance-claims-it-coulda-woulda-shoulda-have-been-intel/

Lol Pat is getting increasing pretentious. Nvidia's Ai dominance wasn't about luck but rather years of planning and development. It's not just about the hardware but the software and the vision to make it happen which Intel largely lacked. We see this with Intel and AMDs attempts where they have hardware that is fairly good but largely lacking in the software department. But Intel's Ai hardware is very much lacking behind AMD in both CPU and GPU front.

Indeed, Nvidia betted on machine learning and compute power a long time ago and it's now taking advantage of that. Nvidia hasn't been lucky, and Intel has suffered from poor leadership.

Oh thank God: I can finally hide all those weird sex games I've got piled up in my Steam library
https://www.pcgamer.com/oh-thank-god-i-can-finally-hide-all-those-weird-sex-games-ive-got-piled-up-in-my-steam-library/
We learned in November that Valve was working on a new feature that will enable Steam users to mark individual games in their games as "private," preventing everyone else in the world from knowing it's there. That feature has now gone live in the latest Steam client beta, which also includes changes to the Steam shopping cart that will make purchasing gifts for other people a whole lot easier.

Should I hide them?

Nah... Hello World!

So, do I have to believe that you "only" have 46 porn games... or just 46 that fit the hentai tag?

Please don't answer, I may not be prepared to know the answer.

That is, indeed, insane. I'd like to know the reasons for such veredict and the long imprision time. After all, the kid may have mental issues and it's kind of debatable, even if hard to agree with.

Tbh as usual, third party shops have better prices. Fanatical has a tad better prices than steam, sometimes big difference

I'll check tomorrow what the deals are since Steam and the Augmented Steam extension are sluggish right now.

I do plan on getting the following since they will be removed from the store soon:

Tomes and Quests: a Word RPG

Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds

And the DLC for Friday the 13th: The Game since it too will be removed.



Wolverine Gameplay leak

Y'know, Youtube's Adpocalypse honestly feels like it's making people wholly dependant only on ads and nothing else that can be offered in this world, and that's both depressing and sad. 

Also, fuck their sponsors if they paid them to shill. I hate that kind of act and wish it was investigated more often and punished, not just on the client side, but the sponsors side tenfold. 

There are other ways to finance a channel, like merch or a Patreon, for instance. But the income from those are generally not enough to keep you going by themselves, so ads are still necessary. Still, those could generate enough additional income to not need to resort to such underhanded tactics.

We can't forget either that Youtube video production values have been increasing year-on-year since the platform launched... Which does cost money and requires extra staffing.

Linus Tech Tips is probably a perfect example of this, started off with just him, then a few more people, now it's a full media business... Adverts alone couldn't support that growth.

In saying that, what I find frustrating is when companies like Nintendo or nVidia "blacklist" Youtubers because they didn't shine their products in the absolute perfect light, it's basically blackmail, some Youtube channels are happy to use their own coin to get a hold of the hardware, but it does mean they often release their videos with a delay... And that means they don't get as many click and probably less revenue.

So sponsorships can skew results for some less-candid youtube channels.
