Yea i don't see electric 18wheelers being very effective
Agreed.
I have no doubt that electric will *one day* surpass gasoline or diesel, but that's far off into the horizon.
a loooong long time from now
Yearp.
I'm hoping to see major change before I die. That would be cool.
Rapid acceleration in technology, and other stuff.
That'd be fun
I don't know if you follow PC news at all, but the new CPU specs and prices dropped by AMD is hype.
I'm hoping it stimulates competition, and prices drops all around between them and Intel.
Yea unfortunately i upgrade my PC ever 5 years or so, and got a new cpu a year ago
so i don't get to benefit from it immediately
and i spent more than i should have lol
I'm right there with you. I'm still rocking an i7-3770k CPU from Intel, and a GTX 970 from Nvidia. The 3770k was released back in 2011 IIRC, and I bought it in 2013. The GPU I won for free at a gaming LAN in Oregon 5 years back.
I'm hoping to do a new build by the end of the year.
Yea i've got a ryzen 1600 and gtx970
the mining went crazy so i never upgraded GPUs when i had an abundance of money and i no longer have an abundance of money
so now i wait
The mining was ridiculous for a good while there I'll say.
I would see people on reddit selling like 50x GPU's 😂
Yea there were used 970's on craigslist for more than i paid for my new 970 3 years prior
it was ridiculous
😐
So now i have VR and a 970, eh
I haven't got into VR yet. I haven't been impressed enough to dig into that side of tech. I'm hoping Oculus or HTC releases a better product in the next several years or so.
I just do Sim racing so i don't need the hand wand things, used mixed reality headsets are absolutely phenomenal for the price for what i do
$180 for like 50% more FOV than a rift and 20% more resolution
plus it's lighter
Huh. That's not bad. I've largely been wanting a solid, but realistic FOV. I want it to be high resolution, and preferably 120 Hz butter smooth. But, of course, largely technology isn't advanced enough where that is reality at 4k or greater. feelsbadman
Have you ever played Assetto Corsa?
All i do is assetto corsa
the mixed reality headsets are like 90 fov at 90hz
there's like 5 of them but they all use the same panels
105 fov whoops https://i.imgur.com/o6yMGAt.png
Yaas.
I need to get back into playing AC.
Perhaps pick up a Logitech setup.
oh m aybe the rift has like 100fov according to some forums, not sure
resolution definitely helps whenyou're trying to maximize braking zones and use the whole track but yea lol
True. I've been getting more into cars, and AC only solidifies the fact that I want all of them 👀
