  • I have relatives with multiple properties in China and they certainly own it as much as their multiple properties in the US. Owning multiple properties in both they feel quite positive about BOTH systems working as intended.

    Maybe someday they will be in for a rude awakening but i have no reason to disbelieve them currently.

    That’s not a misinterpretation. This wasn’t a call where rent limits are set by a locations minimum wage.

    This was the abolition of rent.

    Which does go along with the elimination of ownership. If all housing was state owned that would eliminate the potential for price gouging and allow for the distribution of housing based on pure need. An empty space + a person = housing

    Not many people are calling for the end of homeownership.







  • Unless you’re going above your current PSU’s rating that thing’s good until it’s dead.

    Power supplies will work well past the point of providing clean in spec power on each rail. Lots of parts in a power supply can stop working properly before it physically no longer passes power.

    Unless the PSU is relatively new it’s not a great idea to put it into a new build with testing that it is still in spec on each voltage rail under a load.






  • And if you are buying a 5090… a newer CPU platform is like a drop in the bucket.

    That is the point of the article.

    The problem my friends has is that he is rendering video so he has a high performance Sas host adapter on the same PCI bus as the GPU. He upgraded both hoping the 5090 would play nicer with the sas adapter but he can’t pull full disk bandwith and render images at the same time. Maybe it’s ok for gaming, not for compute and writing to disk.

    The thing with power supplies, they continue to provide enough power long after they lose the ability to provide clean power under load. Only when they are really on their last legs will they actually stop providing the rated power. I have seem a persistent networking issue resolved by swapping a power supply. Most of the time you don’t test a power supply under load to understand if each rail is staying where it needs to be.



  • Exactly HOW much more do you have to spend on a system that is upgradable like that? It’s goddamn significant.

    You are now cleanly in the enterprise space.

    You upgrade the whole system because the piecemeal upgrades don’t make a significant impact and the larger upgrade is basically a whole system.

    It great to work on systems as a hobby, I do it. If I take an older system and swap in a 5090 for a 1080 it’s because I can, not because it makes a difference.

    The improvements have drastically slowed. No longer will a 1 generation bump be a worthwhile improvement. Once you get to 2 generations enough stuff changes that it’s not as meaningful to upgrade.
