Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Thanks! Updated my mistake. Wrote most of it late last night before bed. Yeah, a lot of influences just come from hype. I already know the arguments. RTX 3070 8GB? Too low VRAM. i5-13600K? Degradation. "Just get a 5800X3D (~$350) and RX 9060 XT...

The more I think about it, the less AI I think is involved in those data centers. Considering the amount of surveillance we see going on in USA, it maybe that these are hoarding all the info that is gathered on US citizens. People are angry now...

I like the fervor, but no one is going to do anything. Every form of mass surveillance in the US has gone through after some mild push back for example. People got shot over cop city in atlanta and it's still open. Americans are trained consumer...

Get a scale (https://a.co/d/0dD0xFtk) and stop paying retail prices. My local USPS has a dedicated line for drop offs. If UPS, drop it off at UPS store, don't forget to get a receipt for high value items.

Why optimize for lower RAM usage when they can instead bloat your OS with apps that track you and sell you advertisements in the OS you're already a paying customer for?
