Not just mullets, but mullet and tache combo.

It does harken back to the original HL mod scene though - some high quality stuff came out of that (and valve picked up the Devs too)

Thinking back, HL had a ridiculous quantity of high quality mods and TCs back in the day. Hell, Valve have even allowed HL to be remade and sold on steam.

Almost as good as HURD

Or it could cost a fortune and fuck a lot of other processes up.

These are the same interns that are pushing code in production, right?

What NVIDIA have told AIBs is completely unknown, but NVIDIA certainly hold all the power, if NVIDIA say ship them, they ship them.

Note there have been reports of FE cards, MSI, Zotac, Gigabyte and Manli all impacted.

I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything, for some reason some people just want to ignore the meaning of words. I'm not saying anyone feels super inconvenienced either, like I said they're minor inconveniences, but they're there and they grow.

Frankly I couldn't care less about sticking it to the man, I've been around the scene for 30 odd years at this point and I don't think that's ever been a motivator for me. I do like things that make it more convenient, more reliable and increase selection - I don't like things that make it more difficult, no matter how small.

In the nicest possible way, what you're both describing are minor inconveniences.

I did nazi that!

Zotac and PNY don't make the chips, NVIDIA at fault here. Some people care because they don't actually have a ton of money, but gaming is their hobby and they've saved up 2-3 years so they can afford a high end card because it's worth it to them the extra $50 or $100 represents the difference between being able to afford the card and not, or maybe having a couple of extra games to play on it.

Having to find a way around is an inconvenience.

In a way it's a credit to your democracy, for whatever consolation that brings.

FAFO block passes better

Of all the gen z lingo yeet is the best.

Well, my grandpa sure wished he'd got his swimming cert while he drowned.

Shh, don't tell anyone.

Well, well, ah fuck it, we'll probably rejoin in a few years with fewer concessions and I'll have to listen to even more nonsense.

A physical (or physical-ish) button is pretty much my main driver. I also like the little bit more freedom I'd have with a kobo.

No, just a joke.
