I never saw your post nor can I keep up w who’s who on these threads, but glad you won. Look Warren Buffet has a lot of AAPL so one always has to heed a man of his knowledge- he’s a tried and tested Guru who has big holdings in aapl - maybe he knows something others don’t. Everyone discounted AAPL as being Ai adverse and that doesn’t make a lot of sense. They keep plans secret. I have an iPhone. I don’t like apple products because I was raised on PC. AAPL confuses me but as I’ve noted I’m 80. I started on DOS, WordPerfect, and AOL dial up and a cathode ray monitor. Then my work experience was all PC. But AAPL is huge and not going away. If ppl knocked you what do you care. You made money on it. That’s what counts.nthos is a just a forum of opinions. Have you ever been wrong. But Congrats. Like I said - not sure who’s who - i don’t follow this thread closely- there are too many messages and I don’t remember names very well - are you op or is that someone else - I just don’t know ehos is who - dome ifvtgreadf names are Sony liar do I dont know - most ppl here are seemingly young but youth is usually on the leading edge - do for me it’s a way to learn how the things have changed - you wouldn’t know because you’re nt fyomnthe lady but they were a lot different back when
Schwab. ThinkorSwim is pretty good on both PC and mobile. Highly customizable.
too many PC pansies in here who would be offended by the term
Machine learning != LLM/AI. Come on, that's like rule number 1 of statistics for like the last 15 years and you know it. Statistical learning != Machine learning != Deep learning. They are cousins, but they are very different. Coding copilots are easy beans compared to the rest of engineering and science. There are giant code bases for the models to learn on, and there's a coding manual for every different language that tells you *exactly* how it works. I have manuals for 2 languages sitting by my desk in case I need to reference something about how the language was designed. Code generation also works quite well because a) it's in a similar form that these models were designed to work on, text b) testing code is cheap, and reviewing code is also quite easy compared to other areas of science and engineering c) the need for maximally efficient code in the tech world has all but been eliminated by gains in compute capability so a model outputting "average" code responses isn't going to be a problem like it was 20 years ago d) if something slips through you can just patch it and nothing usually bad happens, oh no, someone had to power cycle their PC, that's annoying. Embedded software or safety critical industrial software doesn't fall into those categories because since it is interacting with hardware, it has a similar rigorous process to hardware. And embedded code usually has to be optimized. Can the LLMs help software engineers there, sure, but it works in a niche area of software because software use cases are very well suited for this type of mathematical model. You wouldn't apply FEA/CFD to VSCode would you now?
What? Cyberpunk was still massively successful despite a troubled launch. Overwhelmingly positive reviews, 30 million copies sold. It's still probably the most talked about console or PC game despite now being more than four years old. Edge Runners was also a big success. This company has quality in their DNA.
I've had similar thoughts to what you've written out OP. However, I work with hundreds of people smarter than myself with phd level education and beyond, and they think AI isn't coming for our jobs, yet, anyway. I'd say it's going to be similar to the modern PC and internet. It's going to make the average person far more capable than ever before. A lot more will be expected out of the average person. In my job, there's just no real excuse for not being able to figure something out or get something done. A lot of us are paid enough, that you are expected to fix major problems and guide everyone else along the way too. But many people have failed to incorporate modern technology and use of electronics, even simple things like working the printer, adobe, outlook, excel, etc. I think that's what concerns me. AI is probably coming for those people's jobs. My parents are very hands on, knowledgeable people, extremely resourceful and self-sustainable, but both would be completely worthless in the modern workspace. That's the interesting part. They're retired now, but there's plenty of gen X and millennials that don't have the modern skills to adapt to what's coming.
Microsoft could only go higher off enterprise revenues. They seem to be doing very poorly from a consumer perspective. People are unhappy with the direction they've been taking Windows (forced PC purchases because they're cutting off security updates in October), the Xbox (no more exclusive titles, supposedly) and videogames from Bethesda (Starfield) and Activision (Call of Duty). They seem to have tunnel vision on products the consumers generally reject, like CoPilot. Read this thread and you'll begin to understand the massive gap between Microsoft's executive vision and their own user base. # Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user base [https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/1lofgad/windows\_seemingly\_lost\_400\_million\_users\_in\_the/](https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/1lofgad/windows_seemingly_lost_400_million_users_in_the/) I read that Nadella never replaced the guy who ran the Windows division but split his job up for 3 other people. Nadella is an enterprise cloud and AI guy who doesn't seem to have a lot of interest in "old Microsoft".
I’d prefer option B. I would think you’d need some kind of permission to essentially link your bot to launching a brokerage app. SMS just seems to give more flexibility — trade on your app, on a web browser on your PC, etc. Cool idea!
Seeing NEGG constantly popping up in most active is so nostalgic. I remember building my own PC 15 years ago. Just pulled up their chart and it looks comical... It hit 400 during covid and is languishing at 15 now
But Nintendo has always been a special case. Most of the games that sell for 80€ in Steam/,PC don't sell that good. Sites like g2a are a thing and piracy will always be there, Kingdoms Come Deliverance 2 and Expedition 33 sold pretty nice I would say and came out cheaper (and a lot of quality), not sure if they will be able to justify 80€ and risk alienating the community even more
Most of MSFT’s PC software is dog s**t. Not sure how they will reach 5T.
I think the only answers to this question *are* non PC
Why? Non PC answers only.
apple is a sleeper in the AI space I think. nothing in the PC/linux universe comes close to the performance per watt for AI inference for their hardware (eg. the M series ARM chips with integrated gpu memory), other than TPUs (afaik). for consumer hardware it is unbeaten. it is just a matter of UX and delivery, which to be fair they have botched so far. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Radical is buggie to car, radical is candle to light, radical is typewriter to PC. What we have seen over the last 2 decades has been incremental, apart from how those same incrementals apply to medical.
Because most people have lives to live and I'm still amazed why it's so hard to setup orders to take profits. Because not everyone can watch their PC or phone all day.
I personally own all except AMD. I will wait on NFLX. I may slightly increase my allocation to NVDA, and think AMZN is still a buy here. I’m still in wait and see mode with AMD. There should be enough TAM for them to participate in the AI infrastructure buildout. Gaming and PC hardware is a slow growth business that doesn’t entice me.
I’m ducking 20k down bro stfu and go build a nice gaming PC you whinny piece of shit. See you Monday regard.
I wish Gran Turismo 7 was available in n PC. Instead I have to pay some Italian cucks for Astro Corsa EVO a realistic but content limited racing sim. Cmon Sony. You know you want more money.
I want to go home and play my PlayStation 2 I’ve got a $4000 PC and I haven’t touched it in a week since buying this mf
Going to repost something I wrote elsewhere: Nobody wants to admit the era of explosive growth is over. Companies are all global and have been for some time. There is no place left for Coca Cola to expand to. Everybody who wants Facebook has it by now. If a new company comes along they may take part of the market share from one of those, but it's no longer expanding the pie. So many capital projects that might have been done at individual companies (electronic records, ordering systems) to increase efficiency are commoditized, and those commodity systems are now feature complete. You just use Salesforce or Office 365 or Shopify. You don't do on prem, you host in the cloud. There is no reason to build that kind of stuff in house because it's more efficient to pay for it. Those things really moved the needle for a bunch of companies early on, but it's all done now. AI is the last big push for dramatic efficiency gains and it's maybe not panning out like they hoped. Since there are no more major efficiency gains, and no more explosive growth to be had, the only thing left to do to pump stock is to cut costs. You use AI as the reason to make it seem like you're innovating instead of stagnating, and force more work on your remaining staff. Those in the industry feel it happening. In all, I think it points to the economy feeling more like the 70s and early 80s before the PC revolution. Just kind of moving along, slow and steady, with some contraction.
Why MU is the best pure AI play right now: 1. Top HBM supplier to NVDA and others. 2. Tariffs are going to kill whatever (perceived) advantage SK Hynix, and to a lesser extent, Samsung have on the memory market. 3. The AI PC refresh cycle hasn't really started either, most of the future PCs/Laptops/Whatever devices will need a ton of onboard memory to run LLMs and other agentic AI locally. MU will double by next year as their new NY and Idaho plants start to come online since their main problem is not being able to keep up with demand.
PC gaming is bigger than ever now with more and more newbs coming in. They don't understand so they buy AMD products instead of NVIDIA and Intel. I had an AMD card once, not that there was anything particularly wrong with it, its just not superior Nvidia.
I got in unknowingly towards the bottom in 2022 after I built my PC and was like ‘lmao I have an NVDA GPU lemme get 100 shares.’ Never had a better return
Yes. I've bought every dip this administration has created. Calls, even some on margin, have went into expiry very profitable. With profits, I'm buying a new PC, maybe multiple monitors to intensify the autism.
MU is a big winner, not only is an AI play with all the HBM it supplies to NVDA and others, but tariffs are going to hamper whatever (perceived) advantage SK Hynix, and to a lesser extent, Samsung have on the memory market. The great AI PC refresh cycle hasn't really started either, most of the future PCs/Laptops/Whatever will need a ton of onboard memory to run LLMs and other agentic AI locally. MU will double in a year or so, I have shares and leaps, this is just the beginning for them, especially when they get their big NY and Idaho plants online.
Ehhh. NVO wanted HIMS to stop selling their competition to Wegovy... Sounds illegal to try and force them to not sell competitors medicine. Intel got sued many years ago by the US government and had to pay a fine for bullying PC companies to not sell AMD chips in their PC's for a discount on their Intel chips, but to get the discount they had to be exclusive. Sounds like NVO was trying to commit a crime and then got mad and cancelled the partnership when HIMS wouldn't do it.
It may be I am not at PC. But my chart would be that chart divided by corporate profits. Debt service as a ratio with income is the actual burden.
Over the PC and gaming subs, far too many Redditors make a stink about $2,000-$3,000 GPUs. I’m by no means well off and even I was able to find the money and I’m an idiot. Are they dumber than me?
No, it really doesn't. Or PC language.
Nothing has made sense so far, so I just ended up buying a new PC instead of averaging down. At least then I can roleplay with my boys on club penguin when the nukes hit.
Conclusion Intel’s $192.24 billion in assets, dominated by PP&E (~52%) and supported by cash, intangibles, and investments, reflect a capital-intensive business with significant intrinsic value. **The low P/B ratio (0.8) and net assets ($106.41 billion) exceeding market cap ($88.92 billion) strongly suggest undervaluation**, particularly if the foundry business gains traction or a breakup unlocks value. However, challenges like negative ROA, foundry losses, and competitive pressures require execution to realize this potential. Investors should monitor Intel’s cost-cutting progress, foundry contracts, and AI PC shipments for catalysts. If you need a deeper dive into specific asset categories or comparisons with peers, let me know!
I am too, held AMD for many years, bought around 80 in 2020 and sold out at 160-180. I think we'll get better prices again soon, it's too exposed to gaming, retail PC and China and a recession plus higher prices would mean another drop. That and all this rushed AI spend is going to result in a chip glut and "AI" is overhyped to begin with. I'll get back in the 80s or lower if we get there though, looks like CDNA is progressing well.
Everyone has been using computers to assist in everything since the invention of the PC. That’s not a gotcha, thats saying dumb irrelevant shit.
Median net worth is between 35-50k in the US at age 30 (in my 1 minute google research). I feel good that I'm in that range in the eastern block duo to my profession. However if I look around I can see the same if I want. My cowerkers and friends in the same age got Tesla, PS5 Pro, Gaming PC, iphone pro max, Macbook Pro, nice apartmant etc. But none of them has all of theese. It's their preference, you cannot have the best from everything because it's financially possible for a few ppl. You see their preferences and what they show for the public. Don't add them up.
I JUST said the same thing to one of my friends. I care for my dad who has transitioned from cognitive decline to mild dementia, and tRump is worse than him! Trump's PC doctors need to stop lying to everyone and give that tub of goo a brain MRI and have him see a neurologist.
Monday? How’s August? What about 2030? Give me a break! The Donald will post a dozen times and change direction or contradict himself at least 3 times by Monday close of market. AI is a “possible” but very few companies have met with success on using AI to replace conventional employees. I’ve seen more companies that had to backpedal to conventional customer service than success stories. True AI still takes a great deal of computing power, one that is not readily available to them. Requirements include new hardware, new facilities and therefore new career fields will likely open up. In the late 80’s-early 90’s, experts were forecasting decreasing workforces due to the growth of the PC market. Instead it spawned increased productivity and multiple new growth industries with a growing labor market. Doomsday sayers again said the internet would disrupt the economy, but instead it created entirely new industries. There’s been war in the Middle East as long as there have been people to record it in writing. So far, I’ve seen nothing new. Bomb, don’t bomb! It will NOT have any dramatic effect on Wall Street or the US markets overall. FYI… war stimulates economies! There are multiple examples of this over the last 75 years.
Missile strikes car park near Microsoft in Israel. Tesla’s Austin factory shuts down and robotaxi launch delays to Sept in Texas. BTC up. United Health faces another class action lawsuit, this time by Bragar Eagel & Squire PC. Episource exposes 5.5M patient records to hackers.
Finally we get the PC upgrades we needed in the office. Thanks insurance.
AMD Ryzen AI PRO processors will power new Dell Pro devices, marking a significant milestone in the ongoing strategic collaboration between AMD and Dell. AMD also introduced its new Ryzen AI Max, AI 300, and 200 Series processors ahead of CES 2025, transforming AI PC capabilities with advanced performance for mobile users, professionals, and enterprises. $AMD to the Mars
What PC CPUs are you looking at? I’d like to buy an AMD CPU but I can only find Intel CPUs that give much more bang for your buck.
AMD talked about their new chips (they're really just floating point monsters that happen to be good at gaming and LLMs) and there's a lot of literature on them in the past week. Amazon makes their own AI chips and they're making a lot of them but just for in-house use and for use in AWS. It may be that they bought it because they think that it's a good investment. I'm considering doing a PC build myself and AMD wins by a mile over Intel right now. They are talking about a 48 core chip for Nova Lake but I'm wondering if it will use commensurately more power compared to 15th gen.
It means that people who want performance higher than console will buy a PC with Nvidia chips, as always
Just bought a refurbed S21 Ultra purely to record and analyze my golf swing since I finally got tired of what a pain in the dick it is to transfer big stuff from iPhone to PC. Screw you for that 'feature' Steve.
Thanks! I find Robinhood's (PC) interface very unintuitive..
I mean I just think there’s enough fuckery afoot to cause something eventually, we really don’t know what’s going behind the doors of PE and PC, CRE seems to be in limbo teetering on collapse. a lot of ignore the bad now looking forward to the good later, but there’s definitely a hole that’s being dug if that makes any sense.

For Apple, yes, its weird for a tech company to be so heavy in cash. For an investing conglomorate, it can be strategy. The current cycle has been the weirdest economic environment ever, it was further disrupted by Trump's arrival and nobody really knows whats up and down now. We are in an era of unprecedented government spending, long term low growth, seemingly endless demand for government debt and weird trade relationships. Its not like there are no brainer moves out there, Google could be gone in the next decade, NVIDIA could revert back to a PC gaming vompany etc etc
How much cash do you need for your PC rebuild? I like to trade both sides of a position like this - **For the put side:** Sell some shares, and sell an at the money or slightly out of the money put, with the intention of buying back the shares at some point. Keep (the strike x 100 x number of contracts) in cash to buy back the shares. Set aside enough to pay the taxes on the capital gains for the shares you just sold. If there is anything left, pocket it to pay for whatever you're wanting it for. Then, you can probably roll the puts several time for more premium. You'll have to pay taxes on the premiums every time you roll, but you only need to pay the capital gains taxes on the sale of the shares one time. **For the covered call side,** sell a few contracts above your breakeven at a price you'd be willing to let go of shares. To try to avoid being assigned on the call, set a limit order to close it after you make some pre-determined profit (I try to close or adjust when 90% of the extrinsic value has eroded) or add an OCO order to roll the strike up and out for a net credit. The good thing about working both sides of the position this way is they can't both go in the money at the same time. I call this strategy [the "Double Ferris Wheel."](https://youtu.be/qAW52GMW4ag) I've made some videos on [the "de-assignment" process](https://youtu.be/q3frFGYsGD4) and the setup and logging of the wheel trades if you'd like to look at them. I don't usually talk about tax implications in my videos, though. Patricia Saylor, Financial Fundamentals for Novice Investors
> honestly, i sold the calls because i wanted some extra pocket change to build a new PC and thought we were going to begin a pullback at the time. So, you're saying you were looking to make some quick bucks on a pullback — that definitely has some merit. Given the situation you describe, though, there might be better ways to implement your goal. I.e., by selling the covered call _so far_ into the futures, you're basically positioning yourself to either (1) make some quick bucks on a pullback (as you wanted), or (2) be stuck holding a position that can't make you much money for around 1.5y, and risking being force to get yourself capital gains that you'll be taxed on. If you want to bet on a pullback to make some quick bucks, and avoid the risk of being forced to sell your shares, you could for example just buy a put, or buy a put spread. That way you're 100% in control of when to enter, when to exit, you don't have any obligations to sell your shares, and you can bet on the pullback as you wanted. There are other strategies, too, but I'd start looking into those ideas. > this post is just to ask about the other side of CC, which is CSPs. trying to understand what i have learned through a comment is the wheel strategy. Ah, that explains quite a lot. Be careful with this. A lot of people use "the wheel" strategy, but in my experience roughly 90% don't really have the slightest clue on what they're doing. This doesn't mean it's inherently a bad strategy. Just be careful with what you read on this sub, and especially on other subs (there are some "echo chambers" on Reddit where "The Wheel" ~addicts~ traders will keep posting telling each other how awesome that is, without really understanding what it is. In essence, it's a way to express the following views: - you're neutral or slightly bullish on the stock - you believe the IV that is being priced in the options is overestimating realized volatility The implementation of "The Wheel" is to keep selling CSPs until assignment, then sell CCs until assignment, then repeat ad eternum. What that is doing is keeping your portfolio (as it relates to the underlying in which you're doing "the wheel") with the following characteristics: - positive delta, but less so than if only holding shares: you make a bit of money if stock price goes up, you lose a bit of money if stock price goes down, but both less than if you only held the stock. - positive theta: you make a bit of money with passage of time. - negative gamma: the more the price changes in your favor, the less you make; the more the price changes against you, the more you lose. - negative vega: you make a bit of money if IV goes down, lose a bit of money if IV goes up. Regardless of whether you're currently in the CC or the CSP phase, those are the dynamics of the portfolio. The typical implementation will use 30-60 days to expiration, and generally 0.3 delta options. It works nicely if IV is often overstating realized volatility. Looking at data from ASTS, personally I wouldn't do "The Wheel" on it: https://imgur.com/a/Hhzk6Bf . See how there are very frequent spikes in realized volatility (the orange line). Each of those times you'd be facing the disadvantages of the wheel.
honestly, i sold the calls because i wanted some extra pocket change to build a new PC and thought we were going to begin a pullback at the time. so my thought process was to pocket the premium and buy the calls back on the next said drawdown. the calls were sold when the stock price was around 33-34 dollars. since then, it has seen another 20% to the upside. i don't have a crystal ball to time it correctly though, no one does. obviously had i known, i'd have waited to build the PC, sold 2 calls instead of 3 for the same premium. i've been in this ticker for over 4 years so i'm used to the huge rallies followed by huge drawdowns. this is my first time selling calls on it though against my position. 50 was the highest strike price, and again i was intending to buy the calls back on the next pullback where i pocket some premium. this post is just to ask about the other side of CC, which is CSPs. trying to understand what i have learned through a comment is the wheel strategy.
I'm whelmed. Windows and Xbox run on the x86 architecture. Nvidia doesn't make x86 chips, AMD is the obvious choice. If anything Xbox's shift towards windows handhelds is the complete opposite of Apple, because Steam dominates the PC gaming space. It would be like Apple having Apple Arcade but the App Store itself was owned by Gamestop. Microsoft will have Gamepass, but any windows handheld user would opt to use Steam over any built in app store.
It doesn't have me addicted.I've never had a streaming service.I have a 72 in Sony Vizio.It's like Roku.It has it's on player.There are thousands of free movies and TV shows.People are paying for regular TV.I tell them all you need is a TV antenna. You can watch CBS,NBC,ABC,FOX all the major networks plus hundreds of other channels for free.They say the picture won't be clear.You better stop listening to Netflix.The picture quality is the same as cable.I also have a firestick.I pay $30 a month for regular Uverse for the wifi signal.My tv,pc,cell phone and anything else is connected.I've never wasted my money on any streaming service.I have pluto,tubi ,and On TV tonight on my PC and cell phone.All free.I can broadcast anything to my 72 inch TV if I want to.People better wake up and stop wasting their money.There's too much free stuff out there
They used to innovate and I think they still do a decent job on being the forefront on Tablets and even computers. We can argue all day long about them not being as good as a custom built PC, but I find it hard to find a good PC laptop from any company anymore. They are made to break. I agree, Apple has 100% gotten to the realm of this is a good idea, lets take more time and create something thats more integrated and works better than that. They are VERY good at that. But also when they do, it does tend to work VERY well, especially within their universe. To this day it's still a pain in the ass to connect headphones to any device that isn't an iPhone. Im positive I can think of several other instances too.
Well i guess you have time for both. Swing trading is for someone that has a day job already. Can be managed by setting alerts on when to buy or sell. You still need to understand if something is for example heavily sold off, into resistance, and extremely overold rsi, etc to go long. You can just go long cuz you think its a good spot. Scalper is someone that can sit at his PC all day or for hours making small moves. Which is def on the lower time frame. Still going into oversold, resistance, diverging rsi, etc.
“If they use Apple, tell ‘em we’re PC. If they use PC, tell ‘em we’re Apple. And if they got both, then tell ‘em we use Linux. And if they got that, tell ‘em the computers are down! They should be anyhow.”
They literally have an employee as the VP and a POTUS who has no clue how to turn on a PC. PLTR might as well just have treasury drops to their warehouse.
Should have figured AMD would moon when I was looking at building a PC and all the top of the line shit was AMD and Consair
Intel's stock has declined more than 60% over the past five years. It missed out on the mobile and AI markets, and it's losing the PC market. It could take years for its newest CEO's turnaround plans to pay off. It's not a safe investment.
I bought an AMD graphics card for my gaming PC. Had absolutely no clue what I was doing but bought 60 DTE calls on AMD post covid. To this day it’s one of two trades I’ve had go to 100%.
I started investing my own money when I was in my early 20s, and I had maybe $5-10k to play with. I downloaded Robinhood when it first came out, and knew nothing. Two names I knew because I’ve been PC gaming my whole life: nvidia and amd. I bought decent chunks of each (around 400-600 shares each) That has worked out nicely lol
Her quitting her job to hike the PC would be an insanely dumb decision in option as a person who makes roughly the same income as her and works 40 hours a week and travels every month. She should be able to find a job with the same pay and cut the hours so she’s not burnt out and you can do some 5-10 day hikes a few times per year without fucking up your financial future.
Please don't be rude, the PC term is regard
Mine is fine. PC also fine.
No. There's 1 animated that came out 20 years ago. Theres a remake of that same exact film. Then there's the prequel, mufasa, lion king 2. Any thing you're saying is some PC garbage, how many genders are there bro?
They have some amazing tech, but AMD put most of their eggs in the x86 basket, which is a stagnant (and arguably shrinking) market, esp. with the insane PC ARM silicon and software layer coming this XMas. Everyone expected AMD to make inroads with consumer GPU's this generation, yet NVDA's market share *jumped* to [92% of new retail GPU sales as of Jan 2025](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/nvidia-secures-92-gpu-market-150444612.html). I'm no AMD hater - I've been buying their stuff since the ATI days - but I'm def. not about to put retirement money behind them.
It's a bleak picture for Team Red and one that is even worse for Intel, with its 1.2% market share evaporating entirely. According to the report, Intel's PC GPU shipment share for Q1 2025 was 0%.
"Apple Silicon" is just a marketing term. They license ARM cores and have someone design a chip to their specifications that someone else makes. Exactly the same thing as what companies like Snapdragon do. "The newest Mac Mini has 5x more GPU memory for AI than similar priced Nvidia PC. The iPhone can run on edge AI models." And what's the memory bandwidth comparison? What's the clock speed?
Very nice. I'm debating getting one myself, but I've got too many games in the steam deck/PC backlog to justify getting myself one right now.
Boomers watch mad money and sit down to an old PC and place market orders to go off at open All nighttime traders do is give them a discount on whatever Cramer hypes up
The Blockbuster of video games. I’m surprised it’s still around. Steam and digital delivery is the norm on PC. The only reason they still exist is because consoles still have a optical drive. And oh yeah, consoles are dying.
While I agree that not being able to access files **like** on a computer is a bit annoying the files App is good enough for what most peoole would need a phone for. You won‘t work on your phone apart from chatting and taking calls, maybe writing down some notes. So for what you‘re going to do with your phone Apples file app works well enough and everything beyond that is a Laptop / Desktop / Homeserver / cloud task anyways. But plugging a USB cable into your Desktop PC / Laptop and your iPhone to just transfer filed from the local phone storage to the PC / Laptop would be nice. Similar to how you could move music files from your PC onto the iPhone
Oh wow, AAPL cool stuff \~ *me OMW to Microcenter to get PC parts*
I am not saying that Intel can be called a GPU company. But Intel is capable of making competitive GPU. Their CPU+GPU+ASIC (e.g. NPU in Core Ultra gen 2 for low power, Gaudi 3 for high power) whole spectrum line up is not bad. Lunar lake has already shown a power efficiency that is as good as ARM in the PC space.
First off let me start by saying I'm not an apple guy. I have a samsung, I use PC's, I don't hate apple I just don't want to be in their ecosystem. That said, I think people are starting to realize that apple has never invented anything. They didn't invent the smartphone, blackberry was there first. They didn't invent portable music, the walkman was there first. What they HAD done in the past was revolutionize products. The iphone was a huge improvement to the blackberry. The ipod was a huge improvement to the walkman/discman. It seems that Apple has become content with their strong app store cash flow that they don't really see the need to revolutionize. Dare I say they have become IBM? I don't think Tim Cook is going to take them to the next level, I think Cook got in where Steve Jobs had a lot of things rolling and gets credit for not screwing it up. But an old rich baby boomer probably doesn't have the exposure to modern life to know what to innovate. TLDR Apple is a great business but is losing growth momentum and likely needs a change at the top to get to the next level.
I’m with you. I’ve owned apple phones since the first one. I have had an iPad since they came out and an Apple Watch (never got a PC as I always needed windows based apps programs). I got the iPhone 16 pro max and regret it now. Samsung/Google feels worlds ahead and the tech is just meh. I want Siri to not be dumb as a brick. I’m out on Apple and I am sure more and more people are starting to feel this way.
People don’t buy Apple because of AI features. People buy Apple because of Apple Silicon, the Design, the Software and the Social Acceptance. The newest Mac Mini has 5x more GPU memory for AI than similar priced Nvidia PC. The iPhone can run on edge AI models. Apple Silicon is Apple’s secret sauce, not AI. If the iPhone goes from 999$ to 1299$ and the mac from 4999$ to 6999$ - people would still buy them.
i find myself doing all my gaming on the deck or switch these days. i barely sit at the PC anymore, it is fucked but it is what it is
1.) MSFT pays a dividend, which means all these years that dividend is going into shareholder pockets instead of adding to the stock price. 2.) it had failed business ventures (remember the failed Microsoft phones trying to compete with apple?) and non innovative work culture. It recently changed in the past decade. It's flag ship product still print money. Every home have a windows PC. Business use it's clouds and Microsoft office.
6% match with company. I put 3.5% into kids account and 3.5% into my own brokerage. Extra money gets spread out in savings, PC parts and brokerage.
SPY PC Ratio is 1.7. Gamma squeeze all the way.
Right, I have PC game I just don't know if switch is a waste of time, thanks
depends, 30 minutes, 2 hours. not as much as I used to. but on PC games I sometimes do 2 hours + but Alt+Tab while doing stuff around the house. Consoles now also have snapshot or instances I guess you'd call it so you can just jump right back in. makes it much easier.
Weird you image doesn't show up on my PC, but does on my phone. Not an old reddit thing either
Then rent a gaming PC from NZXT, win a Fortnite tournament, and pay it off!
happy weekend motherfuckers. I had a a few shots of whiskey and a big black coffee this morning. Going to go shopping, gonna buy a bunch of pastries and choco and pasta and eat the fuck outta that. then imma fix my desktop PC (has some rando crashes/blue screen of death) and play borderlands 2 for FREE since its free on steam for a few more days (already had it on xbox, wasnt gonna rebuy it for 30$ for pc). Then ill prolly jerk off a few times later tonight to some nice porno or hentai. And that's my life as a europoor. Hoping my sweetest Rheinmetall raises it flaccid donger next week. Slightly bored but yeah, see ya all on Monday and have fun and chill these next 2 'free' days :)
fuckin retard on Market Place takes outside pictures of a PC , then says, I don't know anything about it, don't lowball me.
Ladies and gentleman. $INTZ. Check main forum for my DD and looks like someone did TA(it was me on my PC 😂) https://preview.redd.it/gwi1hcf26c5f1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6fdc1c1219b66e84457f3ac794e6575e031c6c6f My position for transparency sake. Looks like a good place to accumulate for the next leg up! If you don’t like it don’t buy it but everything is looking great for short term.
Excuse you, the PC term for those that violate children, or wish to, in now MAP
Not talking about retail money sitting on their PC's but the industry, the bulk of the money, has completely shifted many years ago from who has the best traders and analysts to who has the best models and algorithms. Humans step in when machines aren't performing as expected and then a group of analytics people step in to make a decision which takes x amount of time. Poors like us trying to dissect while trying to compete have to remember that it's not a bunch of whales pulling the trigger based on their high IQ's and big balls. The shift away from fundamentals analysis in markets tracks with reduction of human beings in the trading loop.
They force windows users, which are like 90% of people using a PC to have to see fucking ads in their start bar while scalping data.
wtf, i just found out some comments with images are visible for me from PC/browser but not on the app from my phone, same reddit account. Reddit is a dumpster
Yeah I’m not trying to get rich, just make a little money. If it goes well I’m hoping to upgrade my PC lol so I’m more than comfortable gambling on this.
> You will see here that it’s not the loan, but OP’s actions that matter. If he budgets well, he can benefit greatly from this Broadly I agree with the sentiment overall, I just disagree with the level of risk for someone who probably has almost no financial experience at the very start of their career. If I could guarantee that the person in this post would follow your advice exactly, I'd be more comfortable maybe endorsing it. (I still think sequence of returns risk is a danger, but putting some funds into equities would probably be fine as part of a *balanced* profile with some treasuries to offset the already built-in risk of the loaned funds.) The reason I'm less confident is because OP is probably fairly young. It's quite likely they will have never had this much money in their life, and we have no idea their level of actual responsibility outside of some basic level of "smart enough to be thinking about their financial future and piecing together that this loan rate might be low enough to profit from". Which, while encouraging, isn't enough for me to want to recommend a course of action that could fuck them over if they decide they want a new top-of-the-line gaming PC as a reward for thinking ahead. Suddenly their $24k loan is $22.5k, that they'll owe $28k on over 5 years. Or they DO lose their job, and now start using that loan for back up cash. I would hate to give advice that has genuine risk of ruin for OP if things go poorly in their life in the next few years.
Gonna be 90+ degrees this weekend. Calls on hiding inside with the AC cranked up, playing PC games.
I’m reposting this because I replied to a comment and I want OP to see: This is a great career starter loan which can be used to pay off any debt that has a higher interest rate. It can also be thrown into literally any fund you can think of that earns a high interest rate. It the most free money you can get. As long as you continue to receive income from the military, and behave yourself (that’s key), you will come out of this loan better than before. You can use this loan to get close to maxing out your Roth TSP contributions for the next couple years. Maximum contribution is $23,500. You can elect to contribute 95% of your paycheck to the Roth TSP (I think MyPay won’t let you contribute 100%) and then use the money from the loan to live off of. You don’t have to do this high of a percentage, but it’s certainly possible to do this. The government will match up to 5% of your contributions into the Roth TSP, and the market will proved good returns as well. This is more than enough to cover the cost of the interest on the loan. The key is to only use the loan for bills and living expenses, not splurge on a new gaming PC. Also, I am self taught in this topic, and there could be something I am missing. Maybe someone can help Please consider this idea, but talk to the people at finance first. When I was an LT, I used my career starter loan to pay off my vehicle that had a 5% APY. It helped, but I wish I had done what I recommended to you.
How is this horrific? That is a great career starter loan which can be used to pay off any debt that has a higher interest rate. It can also be thrown into literally any fund you can think of that earns a high interest rate. It the most free money you can get. OP don’t listen to this guy.
