I'm going to assume you decided the extra weight may improve vacuuming in some limited situation.
But thanks for leaving the correction to make me wonder for a while. Made your comment almost enjoyable.

High use Blender users tend to avoid AMD for the reasons you point out.
This leads to less updates due to amd users not being to interested in the community.
It is an issuw without any practicle solution. Because as I need a long overdue update. Again nvidia seems the only real choice.
Everyone is sorta forced to do that unless we can convince amd users to just try out blender and submit results.
So hi any AMD users who dont care about blender.
Give it a try and submit performance data please.
Seriosly the freedom of women in Afghanistan is a seriose issue. As it is in many places.
But Cats seems to be a very very bad example. Most of the world. With the exception of a few owners that keep them indoors.
They are the pet with the most freedom. More so then any human.
Unless she is specifically considering the female feline mating experience.
Yeah looks very much like nvidia is exclusive at the top even at the price I'm looking at.
The RTX4060 looks about right price vs performance. I'll spend some time looking up how well they play with linux atm. And keep an eye out for a used RTX4070 as well.
If no one minds my hyjacking part of this thread.
Id also like some similar advice.
I use blender. Not heavily but have been playing on it for 20plus years.
My GPU is pretty old. 1050ti at the time nvidia was pretty much it for blender.
Im looking for a sub £300 card in the next 3 to 6 months.
Is AMD well supported by blender now. And what cards would folks recomend these days.
PS not a gamer. 0ad is about as close as i get.
Agreed. And when data like this is shared by honest consideration. It can help with moral.
But the tittle here is extremely false. And the lack of science in headlines can be dangerous.
I have been T1d for over 40 years. I was promised by doctors in the 1980s that e were close to a cure. I have seen friends die because of that hope. IE, thinking the cure is so close they don't need to worry.
I had been a T1d for nearly 20 years when science discovered the autoimmune issue. And I realised. Not only are we not close to a cure. But we have absolutely no idea how to address the immune system attacking our own pancreas.
At the time. Sure, doctors honestly believed transplants might work. So those kids that failed to treat it like a lifetime condition. Sorry for the error. But the advice was at least based on the best knowledge of the time.
Issue is I still see doctors claiming we are a few years from a cure, more than 40 years later. When absolutely no positive research exists covering a cure for the immune issue. This has lead to a whole generation of T1ds like me and my brother who find articles like this insulting and dangerous. As we have seen, the harm false hope can cause.
Honestly, promise of better treatment is way more viable than promise of an unknown cure. When I was diagnosed, portable blood testing was impossible. Urine tests once a day was the best w could get. We had no fast insulin. So I had to inject to cover the whole da. And eat a little every 2 hours to prevent dying of hypoglycaemia. Honestly, not only were we unable to keep track and manage our level well. We had no idea what a non T1ds levels looked like over time.
Modern medicine has changed T1d treatment hugely in my lifetime. To the point where my life expectancy on diagnosis was about 45 years. And my health now. Means that really is not absurdly far off. The harm done in those first years of poor insulin and no blood testing out weighed much of the later good.
That is the story modern young diabetics need to be encouraged by. Newly diag T1ds now can expect to live as long as a non t1d if managed well. Teaching them that managing the T1d well now will lead to better easier management as the tech improves, and maybe in the future we will learn enough to actually address the immune issue. Will provide a better long term outcome to new T1ds today. Then getting hopes up for a cure just around the corner, dose. T1ds have a long history of negative humer and giving up the battle. Bad Science articles like this and worse still medicle professionals that fail to understand the actual; status of research. Maker that much worse.
This fails to answer the biggest question.
For most T1D is not about not producing insulin. That is a symptom. Not the desease.
Its a genetic condition where the immune system attacks insulin producing cells. Pancras transplants have existed since the 90s. In most cases the patients become t1d again the future.
As t1ds have already done this to there own insulin producing cells. How dose adding our own reprogrammed stem cells help long term?
While it may help long term. IE when we have a sullution to the autoimmune condition. It is at best a step towards a cure.
A valid point. But the result is that over a pretty short period of time. These C developers will find delays in how quickly their code gets accepted into stable branches etc. So will be forced to make clear documentation into how the refactoring effects other elements calling the code. Or move on altogether.
Sorta advantageous to all and a necessary way to proceed when others are using your code.
Very Much this ^.
All fines do is force too poor to walk when they cannot afford the fine or other options. If that is the goal, free/cheap access to pools and sports centres as we had in the 70s was a better solution.
If the goal is to stop driving. Points on the licence. And providing practical alternatives.
Politics not supporting younger voters is not the same as young voters not being political.
Your statistics are not a valid criticism of gen Z. But of our generation and our failure to support the end of FPTP over other issues.
A 2-second look at the fucking fiscal mess we as a generation have left by voting for property prices and removing support for the higher education costs we had. Makes it pretty clear why those opinions exist. They are not a rejection of politics. But a rejection of the politics pushed by our generation of voters.
Honestly as an older git.
The whole idea that the younger generation is not interested. Is hardly a new one unique to gen Z.
Pretty much every generation since the 1900 has been accused of this.
The only difference is how much change in culture each generation has had to face.
Honeatly pre 1900s. One generation did not face much change from that of their grandparents world. Since then each generation has seen more change then the last. As technical groth has sped up notable even in my 50 plus yeae lifetime. The changes have been notable.
But each generation. As they age a % develop interest in things to a higher level. Little indicates gen z are any different in this.
Honestly, If it is ever made to work. A mobile/robotic 3d printer would be a huge step forward. Solving the issue of levelling on more random surfaces, IE all existing surfaces. Plus the Issue of moving heat stability with different plastics. It all sounds doable in an open design way. But hugely complex and in need of this type of nutcase to start it off.
But the advantages it would give to home-maker like design would be freaking huge once things become well understood. Adding already developing multi mateial heads etc.
As I have said elsewhere. Never underestimate the value of someone insane enough to try and make dumb shit work. Almost everything we depend on started from someone thinking the most insane idea would be fun to try.
