• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    $2500 5090 I’m out

    If you had to assign a dollar value to the amount of time spent at this "part time job" what would it be? Hypothetically speaking.

    $2,500 RTX-5090 ( 60% faster than 4090 )

    Well, it's clear that scalping strikes an emotional nerve. It's also clear that emotions and rational thought don't mix well. Anyway...still hoping for a 5090 variant that can fit in a SFF case.

    So after this BTC halving, should I invest a ton of money or what?

    I'll simply say, I used to enthusiastically evangelize Bitcoin to everyone I knew - friends, family, co-workers, perfect strangers on the internet etc. It was out of a genuine desire to both share the marvel of Bitcoin's mechanism design as well as to help people achieve financial freedom. From...

    Telegram founder arrested in France

    The "fighting words doctrine" was (controversially) meant to categorize speech not protected under the 1st amendment but it was never a valid justification for assault + battery.

    Telegram founder arrested in France

    I would love to see the results of your "dem fightin words" defense the next time you're charged with assault and battery.

    AI Isn’t Making Much Money

    I think analysts fundamentally misunderstand the value proposition here (despite Altman explicitly telling us in plain english). They look at what's currently popular (LLM apps), fall into the availability heuristic trap, and conclude the end state AI will simply be a difference in degree...

    You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. My biggest lesson learned since starting this journey in 2013.

    I may be an idiot. 7900xtx to 4090 cs2 only

    This feels like the quintessential humble brag post. Despite the counter-balance signaling that you are at least somewhat frugal and value minded (buying open box) your main thrust is one of conspicuous consumption and "I-make-enough-to-waste-money-on-performance-I-may-not-even-notice". In your...

    Nvidia Vaults Past Apple and Microsoft To Become World's Most Valuable Company

    Personally I’d be overweight INTC here and trimming NVDA positions. Nvidia is a great company but their stock is priced to perfection and due for mean reversion. It could play out in 2 weeks or 6 months but there are simply better opportunities elsewhere right now. The last thing one wants to do...

    Apple announces macOS 15 Sequoia with window tiling, iPhone mirroring, and more

    Before I "retired" I was an iOS dev for a San Francisco based SaaS company. I can assure you that if there were any iOS devs gnashing their teeth at needing a Mac to develop iOS and MacOS apps then they're the extreme minority. Heck, even the non-Apple ecosystem devs would choose MBPs as their...
