Would there be any benefit to selling my 980ti for a 1070?
No, the 980ti won't be remotely obsolete until they release a 1080ti and even then the 980Ti is still a fucking amazing card. It's like selling your 780ti for a GTX 980 when the 900 series launched. No point, card is already top of the line.
Lower power draw, less heat.

I went for an interview to go to tafe.
The female tech assistant didn't know what linux was. So she got some neck beard fat ass with a pony tail to come help.
He told me my computer was broken.
He also kept butting-in during my interview even though he wasn't supposed to be there.
What a weirdo
How come AMD's hardware specs are always superior (bandwidth, FLOPS, texel fill rate, etc) but the cards either end up being on par or slower than Nvidia?
>>54812900
nvidia pays devs to sabotage AMD
Three reasons.
1. Games don't push AMD's strengths, that being high bandwidth, massive shader and texel throughput, but opt for pixel fill/throughput which is Nvidia's forte, and pretty much the only objectively measurable scale Nvidia beats AMD at.
2. >>54812920 goes hand-in-hand with 1.
3. Their drivers have higher overhead than Nvidia's, meaning they lose out performance from the start.
In short, it's entirely a software problem.
>>54812900
>but the cards either end up being on par or slower than Nvidia
Just wait a couple of years when nVidia stops optimizing drivers for that arcitecture.

About to order an XPS 15 with a 4K screen.
How fucked am I, /g/?
what is that. doesn't look like a thinkpad. is this a prototype for a a new line of thinkpads?
Great computer
Enjoy your tiny text and windows.
Why are serial ports dying /g/?
Nowadays it's hard to find mobos that even have a serial header let alone a db-9 port on the back
usb adapters are also not up to par.
What has the world come to?
>>54812507
Shuttle makes a few fanless celeron models with 2 x DB9. Good enough for DOS-based radio programming at a reasonable price with new hardware.
>>54812507
Capitalism dictates that things should be done to maximise profit and minimise loss.
Serial ports cost money and don't bring much profit due to consumer demand.
>>54812507
USB adapters are definitely up to par. I don't know what you're talking about. Serial ports are still used extremely often in the network administration.

Do you follow standard typing guidelines?

>Not using touchscreen.
I have trained myself to homerow. And can only type accordingly.
>>54812165
No, I keep my thumbs on the space bar and use my index fingers to type. If I can't reach something I use my pinkies. Judge me all you like, it's what I'm comfortable with.

Whats the most comfy chair I can buy
one that will last, but always allow me to reach maximum neckbeard comfy status as i type code & watch media
I recently bought a highly rated normal deskchair, but its just not comfy, whats worse is its falling apart
please /g/, im begging you, share your wizard, what is the best comfy chair?
Pic related is what I bought
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XBC3BF0/
it was a best seller with alot of good reviews, but its fucking garbage thats falling apart & uncomfy as fuck
Now I know /g/ is mostly generals for shit like phone screens & muh battle stations
but sometimes we can discuss other stuff too
I think this is one of those times
i have some chair with a neck rest i got at a garage sale
feels comfy
Have you tried walking into Staples or Office Depot and sitting in all of their chairs?

Currently have a GTX770. Should I be a good goy and get a 1070, or should I fall for the wait meme and see what polaris cards offer?
>>54811441
Depends if you have a lot of disposable income. If I was making about four times the amount I do now, I'd definitely just hop from card to card. I have a feeling from experience of owning an AMD system, that Poo-laris will be quite underwhelming, same with Vega.
Wasn't there supposed to be a livestream?
