2:26:19Local woman wants every tech related stuff explained in iphone terms
2:26:19kabedon-ing Mono to explain tech to her
2:26:26I've been an Apple user for 22 years after suffering with Windows ME.
2:26:35It's okay, auntie Mono. We'll get you set up with your new computer so you can play farming games on Facebook.
2:26:37The tech moves too damn fast
2:26:43a lot of steam user hardware surveys have people still using 20xx/30xx series graphics cards so theyre still solid, 40xx might be ideal, anything after that not so much
2:26:45tech gains haven't been massive recently tbh
2:26:45i stopped keeping up after i had to settle for 4070
2:26:50it does move faster every year
2:26:56if it makes you feel any better i was about to say the 4090 was the best card rn
2:26:57Nah, no need to feel embarrassed imo
2:26:57I mean why fix what ain't broken?
2:27:07I think we can take a break for a few years from getting new hardware
2:27:08aren't most of us doing that?
2:27:10I gave up following tech trends after the modern day flip phones
2:27:20hard to keep up when technology is too rapid
2:27:22I think being "on the pulse" causes a lot of people to get a little obsessed with being on the cutting edge. probably healthier for brain and wallet to not be imo
2:27:22Quite honestly, the 5090 is overkill for pretty much everything.
2:27:38i only look at the stuff when i'm thinking i need an upgrade
2:27:42I thought i was locked in with technology like 5 years ago, i bought a 3050, realized everyone said it was the worst purchase of all time and gave up
