  • Sweet! My closed headphones isolate even the sound of the doorbell, so people kind of need to text me if they plan to visit while I’m gaming xD

    Which model/maker of the 3080 do you have? I have the Asus TUF Gaming OC version and while it sounds like an inspired fan, it’s not quite a jet engine… But then again, I only game at 1080p (but with ultra settings) because with my 24 inch monitor I kind of have a good pixel density anyway ^^










  • Thanks! I’m doing this on Linux, which I failed to mention in the post. I terminated the program with ctrl + c, but it was still interesting to me how such a short, seemingly uncomplicated snippet could tax my Ryzen 7 5800 X3D so much that the fans needed to increase their speed. Couldn’t a malicious actor theoretically disrupt a target machine by having an unnoticeably insignificant program loop in the background, taxing the CPU to it’s usable limits? This is off topic of course, but still interesting.
