  • AMD is notorious for screwing their releases, they usually announce prices very close to NVIDIA, then reviewers give them subpar reviews and after a couple of months they start to lower the prices but it is usually too late and very few reviewers are updating their verdicts so people think they are still crap even though now the price is a lot more competitive making the whole package a bargain.

    I don’t know why they do it that way, and I can only imagine that this hurts their brand and sales.













  • Last time I checked the US started all this witch hunt and trade war, as they are worried their global influence is waning with China gaining foothold in Africa, Asia and even South America.

    So call me sceptical but the US doesn’t care for the Uighurs, or any other human rights violations that China is involved in, they are just protecting their trade interests.

    And yes, this antitrust case should have been open against NVIDIA ages ago.





  • I am pretty sure your PC doesn’t block ICMP requests and you can get the MAC address of the IP address using the arp command and then check the first three octets against the MAC vendors database.

    This is all possible in Bash but the script will be slightly more complicated and will involve three different tools, ping, arp, curl.

    But I am sure you know how to check your PC IP address anyway.


  • One comment though, you are moving the bashrc and bash_profile instead of copying it. So consider fixing it in your instructions.

    You could have also run a for loop and ping all the IPs in your subnet. Something like this will work:

    for i in {1..254}; do ping -c 1 -W 1 192.168.1.$i &> /dev/null && echo 192.168.1.$i; done
    

    Presuming that your subnet is 192.168.1.0/24. This command will loop through all the IPs in this network and only print the one that are alive.

    I didn’t know that Steam have added an exception for /nix which is pretty cool. Thanks for sharing
