I suppose the point of a longsword is less “wickedly sharp razor blade to slice and dice with precision” and more “wedge shaped heavy piece of metal to drop on people with the hope of finding a gap in their armour”

Over grip seems like a really great way to slice your hand open

They seem to be pretty good at making sure the military has all the finding they need

I’d be ok with anonymous donations if they were truly anonymous both publicly and to the management of the institution receiving the money.

Digging into it a bit more, it seems like I might be better off getting a 12gb 3060 - similar price point, but much newer silicon

Hah, I’ve pretty recently picked up an Epyc 7452, so not really looking for a new platform right now.

The Arc cards are interesting, will keep those in mind

Thanks for the tips! I’m looking for something multi-purpose for LLM/stable diffusion messing about + transcoder for jellyfin - I’m guessing that there isn’t really a sweet spot for those 3. I don’t really have room or power budget for 2 cards, so I guess a P40 is probably the best bet?

sigh guess I need to go write another letter to my MP
