I’m interested in this. Did you read anything? I know nothing but it sounds like a cool project for me and my kid.

Its wrong they bought it in the first place…

Of course. But it’s still an absolute physical trade off. There is only so much die space and power budget or cost. They will have traded something off.

The only argument you can really have is about die space. If fixed function hardware is on die for ray tracing.

The chip could be cheaper or have a larger rasterization GPU block, AV1 encode block etc etc

Yeah same here

UK. I’ll get the odd joke from an iPhone user but we all use WhatsApp and no one really cares.

Prices will only go up.

I couldn’t be arsed with this kind of thing and just renewed for 10 years.

You got the name of the new one? I’ll give it another shot.

I don’t get the arguments either way.

Buy the 512GB phone if you need it?

Yeah I’ve tried it but I kept having other UI and remote issues so had to stop. I’ve debated whether just breaking the trace on the remote. I hate hate clicking it.

I Google all sorts of shit. I can make a best guess decision or I can Google it and find a better answer…

There is no reason we NEED a new switch though. Never tegra chips already exist.

I know :( But there are alternatives.

Yeah they’ve been great devices for me supporting everything they can with updates. No youtube HDR is probably my biggest bummer with it. Having to have the TV connected to the internet just for that is annoying.

I’ve had a pretty tough time with our kid and our test has always been.

If that happened today, would I wish she wasn’t here. So far the answer is always an unresounding no.

I’ve got a 2015 model in the bedroom and the newer 2019 model on the main TV.

It’s still plenty fast for general TV app watching. In a new model I want AV1 and VP9.2 support (Future proof and to give youtube HDR).

HDMI 2.1 to gamestream 4k120hz gameplay. Other than that it still supports absolutely everything. Other enhancements that would be nice:

• New remote without a Netflix button.
• USB C ports
• Better bluetooth radio, really struggles with my xbox controller.
• Other HDMI 2.1 features like faster framerate/HDR switching.
• 2.5gig ports (not necessary at all but why not)

Had 2 weeks off work! Back tomorrow. Will watch the world cup final then do some chores and then weep.

I got my SO to use a password manager.

She got sick of pihole and my firewall blocking her Facebook memes, so she has her own segregated WiFi network, then she’s less of an attack vector for me.

Aslong as she uses 2fa on her main accounts and has a password manager I’m happier than most.

Say poor. Might get a raise too
