Oh, I also have a (fully paid for) version of Adobe CS4 running in a VM that I still use a lot still. I managed to get it installed into a VM before they disabled the activation servers. I cannot legally install something that I paid for now... and I'll never give another penny to Adobe because of it. Screw your subscriptions Adobe!

Adobe really screwed up a lot of people... they used to be the king of the hill and standard creative software tool and the forced subscription service killed it.

Remember when Adobe was shutting down CS2 activation servers, and published a private (no indication it was meant to be private either) KB accidentally public facing essentially giving away non-activation download versions and offline activation keys for almost all of the CS2 generation of apps.

    • In most cases SE is an upgrade. Here it’s a downgrade. #stupidhardwareprices
    • SE sounds like "Special/Second Edition", better than the original. WTF is Nvidia marketing doing?!
    • Nvidia might soon launch RTX 5090 "SE" with a lot less performance and VRAM by Sayan Sen For quite a while, Nvidia was expected to be working on an RTX 5000 SUPER series as a step up from the vanilla 50 series that is currently headlined by the RTX 5090. There were even rumored specs that leaked, though evidently, none of that has materialized. However, it finally looks like Nvidia may make a move and launch a new card, according to a new report. Surprisingly, perhaps, this is not related to the SUPER series at all, and instead, Team Green could be bringing a new RTX 5090 "SE" model instead. The news comes from Russian outlet GameGPU, which claims that this will be a highly chopped-down variant of the 5090. How much, you ask? According to the report, there may only be 14,080 CUDA cores or a total of 110 SMs (streaming multiprocessors). In comparison, the RTX 5090 has 21,760 CUDA cores or 170 SMs, respectively. Aside from the core configuration, the memory subsystem is also said to go down from a 512-bit width to a 384-bit interface. Thus, the memory capacity will see a reduction down to 24GB on the SE versus 32GB on the full 5090. Here is how the alleged RTX 5090 SE will compare spec-wise to the 5090, 5080, and 5070 Ti: RTX 5090 RTX 5090 SE RTX 5080 RTX 5070 Ti Architecture Blackwell Blackwell Blackwell Blackwell CUDA Cores 21,760 14,080 10,752 8,960 Tensor Cores 5th Gen (3352 TOPS) 5th Gen (NA) 5th Gen (1801 TOPS) 5th Gen (1406 TOPS) RT Cores 4th Gen (318 TFLOPS) 4th Gen (NA) 4th Gen (171 TFLOPS) 4th Gen (133 TFLOPS) Boost Clock 2.41 GHz NA 2.62 GHz 2.45 GHz Base Clock 2.01 GHz NA 2.30 GHz 2.30 GHz Memory 32 GB GDDR7 24 GB GDDR7 16 GB GDDR7 16 GB GDDR7 Memory Interface 512-bit 384-bit 256-bit 256-bit Memory Bandwidth 1792 GB/s NA 960 GB/s 896 GB/s Thus, in terms of performance, the RTX 5090 SE could be right in the middle of the 5090 and the 5080. If the report is indeed true, we will have to see how Nvidia prices this thing, especially in these current times where hardware prices are very high. Source: GameGPU

    • Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 SE mouse is currently on sale in multiple colors by Ivan Jenic The Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 SE is currently $99.99 on Amazon, down from its original price of $139.99. The mouse is available in multiple colorways, so you can pick one that suits your taste and perhaps your setup the best (purchase link below). The Superlight 2 SE sits just below the flagship Superlight 2 in Logitech's lineup, and it shares most of the same DNA. The HERO 2 sensor is said to track at up to 44,000 DPI with 888+ IPS and zero smoothing, acceleration, or filtering. So, it’s as good for competitive players as it is for regular users. There are also Logitech’s own LIGHTFORCE hybrid optical-mechanical switches, which give you clicks with mechanical tactile feedback. The mouse weighs just 60 grams, which firmly puts it in the ultra-light category, and it’s not even in a honeycomb shell. The battery should stretch to up to 88 hours on a single USB-C charge, which is solid for a mouse in this category. It also supports polling speed adjustment, which you can push from 1kHz to 8kHz. However, this requires the PRO LIGHTSPEED receiver, which sells separately, so keep that in mind. At $99.99, the Superlight 2 SE is a strong buy for anyone who wants a proven esports mouse without paying full flagship prices. All colorways are currently on sale for the same price, including White, Red, Black, and Magenta.
