      Chords? OK boomer.

      The hotels I have been to recently have a charging block thing in the rooms with USB 2/3 connections, a power outlet and wireless charging. It’s on the night stand next to the bed. My ear buds can go anywhere in the room, even the bathroom so I can keep talking while I go have a shit.

        BTW you can probably get whatever length USB chord you want on Ali. They sell them on Amazon here

          But keep in mind that the longer the cable, the lower the data transfer speeds.

            That sounds like something you used maths to figure out. GTFO!

                Android USB data transfer is such a pain in the arse I always use bluetooth or transfer via the internet.

                  I feel my cable expertise is going to waste here.

                          I barely use Facebook and don’t think I follow anyone of note but it seems Facebook verification is useless:

                          Facebook Page (cid=100095328189213) with verification mark and over 3M followers impersonating Barron Trump since being renamed and scrubbed almost 2 months ago, farmed from Vietnam since almost 2 years ago.

                          Was just thinking that with the ability to generate fake pictures, audio and video getting better and cheaper all the time, Twitter’s verification system (pre-Musk) would have been invaluable in the current era and going forward.

                            Bolt Graphics Makes Bold Claims; Introduces Zeus With Up To 10 Times The Rendering Performance Of RTX 5090 GPU

                            Bolt Graphics Makes Bold Claims; Introduces Zeus With Up To 10 Times The Rendering Performance Of RTX 5090 GPU

                            Bolt Graphics has reportedly produced another high performance graphics processor called Zeus, claiming up to 10x the performance of RTX 5090

                            Huge if true, and competition would be great, but I won’t believe it until I see it, and looks like the stock market won’t either.

                              The single-chip design will feature 77 Gigarays while the dual and quad offerings will boast 154 and 307 Gigarays

                              Wow!

                              Brb. Gotta look up what a Gigaray is.

                              An article from Tom’s Hardware says this:

                              . There is one major catch: Zeus can only beat the RTX 5090 GPU in path tracing and FP64 compute workloads because it does not support traditional rendering techniques. This means it has little of no chance to become one of the best graphics cards.

                              I don’t know enough about it myself to understand it all.

                                Well, that’s actually good news since path tracing is superior to ray tracing and I prefer that when making product renderings. I’m not sure if any games support path tracing at the moment, but I’m sure it will become more common in the future.

                                Photon tracing and PMC are even better, though, but takes a lot of time and computing power.

                                    I didn’t say anything about FPSs. That’s why I posted it on a tech thread, not gaming forum.
