Pot Limit Omaha
This is still not as popular as texas holdem but it is very popular at the higher stakes due to being significantly harder to solve.
In PLO you hold 4 cards of which 2 will be selected for a hand, this will be combined with 3 from the table (of 5). Betting is limited to the size...
No Limit texas Hold'Em
This is arguably the number one card game of all time in terms of being simple, very difficult (if not impossible) to master and appealing to humans.
Unfortunately this game has been analyzed to death via solvers and other tools, still it is being played a lot today...

He concluded that the severe slowdowns is from termal throttling and not the drive running out of SLC cache.

While you shouldn't trust these people too much when it comes to making good decisions it is still a big red flag.

I later got told that it throttled at 70° C and that this is what it means by "warning temperature" i wrongly assumed it only throttled at "critical temperature" (110 °C), i did not properly measure the temperature and i was unable to find any more recent saved stats tnan the following

Living in china
In china a lot of websites (mostly trash) is blocked but you can get around that using a VPN. Using a VPN will also allow you to properly hide your identity online and thus you will not have to face consequences for your actions. Being openly negative about china/CCP can end...

Alternatives
There are already several SSDs that have sustained write speeds i view as acceptable but these SSDs do however have other issues, there is not yet any 2TB version of samsung 980 pro and its unclear what the sustained writes are for SN850. Older drives only support pci express...
Square root approximation
This approximation can be approved by adding a second correction term

quick polynomial division
You can factor polynomials quickly and easily
In the video they make these notices below but you can remember that in your head easily.
Often you can speed up your calculations a lot my relying more on your memory and using the most effective formulas.
equation solutions
x²+2DX+E=0 x=-D±√(D²-E)
ax²+bx+c=0 x=(-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)
You need to properly remember these formulas to do well on math tests (saving time) it is...
SSD was returned to amazon
This was not an easy decision given the lack of fast 2TB alternatives and the fact that my current SSDs are far worse in pretty much every way.
This is me moving back files to my samsung 850 evo, its painfully slow and probably cannot be fixed.
It seems like amazon...
One argument against lockdowns is that "the same number of people would go on to die later anyway" this is clearly false. Over time the healthcare will improve and thus for the same number of infections later fewer will die. Now vaccinations have started and thus we can get to herd immunity...
How the high performance helps in real usage
While a single process will typically be cpu bottlenecked by only utilizing one core (plus other windows 10 nonsense) the disk will still be ready to handle other things at the same time.
Otherwise if you have a slower SSD that is fully utilized by a...
