Linus Sebastion, Mr. Evil of the internet, or Benevolent Blogger? Part 1: The Nvidia Buyout. Written by: Zodiark1593 12/18/16 Internet Media Mogul, and verified vice president of the Passive Aggressive Society of Canada; Linus Sebastion, has been investigated over (proud) disclosure of questionable business practices, including but not limited to slave abuse, wage violations, and smuggling of illegal alien species on his Wan Show live streams, of which he is the self-proclaimed host. In my multi-part documentary, I will cover all of the controversial, satanic, intriguing, and mildly disturbing happenings within the future mega-corporation that is the Linus Media Group, starting with one incident that threatened to change the face of the world. Among these controversies, it has been publicized on April 1, 2016 that Linus Media Group has been bought out by the empirical GPU vendor, Nvidia. Negotiations for the buyout concluded three days prior. As part of the buy-out contract, the name of the company will be changed to Nvidia Media Group, effective immediately, and Nvidia will provide all clothing, swag and décor to NMG and staff. The spokesperson of rebel GPU vendor, AMD, commented “Why Linus would choose vomit colored décor over laser red is beyond me.” He then later went to cry in a corner, having seemingly lost hope for humanity. An insider within NMG had also stated that the company's Lamborghini will also reflect the change in color theme. Several days later however, Linus privately announced his defection from Nvidia, citing Nvidia’s excessive use of Puke Green ruining his appetite for his wife’s home cooked meals, resulting in randomly sustained injuries and bruises, and lack of meaningful content in posted videos. It cannot be confirmed at this time whether these injuries are caused by a possibly irate wife, or an unfortunate run-in with angry chainsaw wielding squirrels en-route to work. As the editor-in-chief of a non-existent editorial, I am hoping for the latter. The company’s original name, Linus Media Group has been reinstated, and all décor and clothing provided by their former Nvidia overlords have been subsequently burned in their office incinerator. As quoted by an anonymous Nvidia spokesperson, “We are deeply disappointed that LMG does not approve of Puke Green #6 as the empire’s official color and his choice to split from the empire, and further apologize for any domestic violence incidents that have been caused as a result.” Rebel AMD’s spokesperson was unavailable for further comment, as he was allegedly still crying in the very same corner he was left in. LMG and Nvidia quickly reconciled, and business resumed as though the buyout never happened. Some months later, when inquired about the failed buyout, Nvidia spokesperson responded “We’d hoped to expand our empire through LMG, we’re sad to see the deal fall through, but will look to further avenues to expand our power. As of now, we’re in talks with Bitwit CEO, Kyle, with a proposal for acquisition, however, he is demanding that as part of the negotiation, we change our official color to Hot Pink.” The spokesperson will not comment on whether or not they will take Kyle’s proposition. As for LMG, insider information reveals plans to pursue world domination of their own accord, though as of December of 2016, have only succeeded in conquering Canada.

I don't mind going used if I have to, or spend a little more. I don't want to actually use it, I just want to beat all of those benchmark tests. So I need an amazing cooler and a good cpu. I dont need a lot of storage, just fast storage. Also need like a titan or something. Update: I don't want to use any parts under $150 except maybe cables or something.

how much have your abilities improved after you switched to rgb

I'm just a man, young by most standards. I'm certainly not a child anymore, though the line of work I find myself in I'm certainly treated like one on occasion. No, I'm in my late 20's and am about as average as can be. Like all of us, I find myself in a fast paced world, fumbling about to keep up. COVID has turned my life around, like many others. It's just another obstacle I must overcome. Mental strength is key during these times, especially when you have a wife to support, as she does you. There is strength in relationships like that, enough to keep going with confidence. Unemployment has been a disaster, but this too has not broken me. I've saved well, and was ready as one can possibly be for a scenario like this. Alas, this situation is dire, but will not break me. I'm strong of will and mind yet. In fact this once in a lifetime situation is something I can bear. I understand it, mostly, in it's dire and ever-present reality. Instead I write this having been broken by something I cannot wrap the remaining fragments of my mind around- the horrible state of Microsoft's proprietary charging. Me, at my average apartment, on my average computer, searched for days to understand why a device costing me a thousand US dollars, being about half a year old, would stop charging no matter the things I try. Why was it that I found myself, in the darkest days of a pandemic, balancing my Surface Laptop at just the right angle so that it might charge for a portion of its capacity? Why is it that after days of this, it blinks at me no longer? That white indicator light that I crave to see glowing softly a solid white, it remains blackened. I looked to a God that I never believed in. Maybe he would understand? "God," I said as I stared out my window at the many people shopping without masks, "why does my new device, at this day and age, not charge any longer? Was it because of my sins?" I continue to stare out the window, receiving no answer. God, like the google searches I turned to, had no answers. If he did answer, just like Google, he would probably forward me to Amazon where I can buy a new charger for thirty five US dollars. You're right I'd think to myself. God would be that wise. The answer is that simple. Just buy a new charger. And while that is what I did, just moments before writing this...whatever this is, I still can't understand how I've gotten to this point. USB C. I always have this thought whispering maddeningly in the back of my head. USB C wouldn't fail you. USB C wouldn't hurt you like Microsoft's proprietary magnetic charger. "Perhaps," I usually reply back as my wife looks horrified at me from the kitchen, "but magnets are futuristic, and Microsoft told me it would work". But it didn't work, not for long at least. It didn't last. Nothing lasts. Someday, my wife will die. Someday I will die. Microsoft promised me a unique fast way to charge my device, but instead sold me existential dread. I weep openly over my deceased charger, hoping that my sorrow is not misdirected. My thoughts now turn to the charging port itself. What if THAT is to blame, I think between sobs. But I cannot think of such horrible things. Amazon may yet deliver me from my sins, just as they deliver my packages in reasonable, though unethical, times. My new charger will come, and though it may remind me of the losses I've suffered and the losses yet to come, I shall use it. Past that, I cannot say. The world is too uncertain to think ahead past Monday's expected delivery date. And Microsoft: as my anger turns to sorrow, I hope I can find it in my heart to forgive you. After all, it may be partially my fault. Finally I leave you with a quote- a poem by JRR Tolkein... All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.

Forgot the source: http://www.der-postillon.com/2017/06/videos-zurueckspulen.html A rough from german to english translation: One of the Youtube Managers Susuan Wojcicki said: In the time of video tapes, you were supposed to rewind them before bringing them back to the rental store, else there were fines. This was a useful habit. Right now we are having employed more than 84000 people, working around the clock, that do nothing else then rewind seen youtube videos, so that other customers can see them from start. If watchers don't rewind their seen videos there will be punishments like a few days block from consuming youtube videos. After not rewinding a seen video for 3 times, a 5 days blockage from youtube, if repeated up to a month. If repeated even further some other measures will be taken like an automaticly forced video only. For example the Song "How it is (wap bap..) form the user channel Bibi.

Full article here. Yesterday, against the advice of her lawyer, an ex-nVidia engineer came forward with damning allegations regarding nVidia's latest GPU architecture known as 'Maxwell.' Ms. Avril Premiere was let go from nVidia in mid 2014 after she had filed numerous complaints to company officials, claiming that nVidia were cutting too many corners and were becoming a company without any ethical backbone. Earlier this morning nVidia released a statement denying all claims from Ms. Avril Premiere. "When we attempted to contact Mr. Tom Petersen from nVidia, we were finally able to locate him at a Mr. Ryan Shrout's residence, who informed us that we were interrupting their slumber party, and that Mr. Petersen would be available later in the week." At this point, things are just heating up. The location of Ms. Avril Premiere is currently unknown. She has disappeared without a trace as of this morning, and is believed to have fled the Country. The full article, including the full interview with Ms. Premiere, can be found here.

To be honest, when I first saw this I thought it was a joke, in fact I still think it is. Matt Gray and Tom Scott present the first emoji-only social network... Tom Scott says: Apparently it's launching soon on iOS and other platforms later down the line. You can reserve a username here... (and of course your username must be made up of emoji characters only, duh!) http://emoj.li I still can't see any practical applications for this kind of thing... but I guess time will tell if this will become somewhat popular or if this is something that is soon to be forgotten.
