An extremely partisan voting block heavily flagging something is a piss-poor signal for on-topicness, come on. That kind of sloppy logic is a great way to let organized voting rings suppress uncomfortable news, though.…

What? I used an X daily until about two weeks ago when I bought a 14. Zero issues with it, and never even heard about any.

I take your point but lol at the idea of 300 applicants for a remote dev position. If we saw 30 applicants all year is would be a miracle.
Could be. But the pre-launch rumours also claimed the 4080 was a 450 W product, and the 4090 is so niche (basically it’s the old Titan line) that it’s not worth handwringing about because it’s not targeted at normal…
