altkey (he\him)

To be fair, they edited in the Microslop logo and also the Firefox icon, making a crying fox look like a narcissist hugging it’s own image, that is not completely out of blue with their recent shitty decisions

1. It has it’s DRM implementation, that, albeit weak and useless, was designed to manage what you can or cannot plug these cords into, e.g. capture cards. That’s probably an advantage for Sony and others.
2. HDMI specs are <10m or bust, so for big rooms or video prod on HDMI you need amplifiers. They may be included in the cord itself, but that makes it one-directional, lol.
3. Not to say that HDMI cords are expensive and you also can’t press their ends to the lenght needed yourself, unlike what you can do with SDI cords.
4. No mechanisms preventing them against just popping out from the socket. Anecdotally, I think there’s something weird with their construction maybe, that in my experience made metal connectors suddenly come off completely around 5 times this year, while no other connectors suffered that faith, even dumb VGA that are prone to have their pins wrecked.
5. HDMI is rigidly limited to what it can with what standard and has no interesting things going for it imho, at least no daisy chaining multiple displays one after another that DP can.

China has also implemented the world’s most stringent standards for battery safety. They require automakers to ensure that batteries don’t catch fire or explode for at least two hours after a single cell enters thermal runaway. If it does go ablaze, Chinese automakers are experimenting with some unusual ways of protecting the car and occupants from the battery fire.

I like it way more than charging speeds. But also - I’m interested in how many recharge cycles they supposedly can live through, and that’s not in the article.

I do agree it’s limited to a small scope of New York-based smaller LLMs, but if you read the news you know why exactly this bill occured - just now Mamdani gave up on a useless chatbot made with local budget by his predecessor Adams: https://www.thecity.nyc/2026/01/30/mamdani-unusable-ai-chatbot-budget/ It was indeed giving inaccurate legal recomendations on city’s website. I think the better result that can happen to that bill is it becoming a trend across cities and states as, I suspect, New York administration wasn’t the only one falling for this scam.

A nitpick, but America won’t have Gitmo in that scenario tho. Displacing american people to random countries now is deeply rooted in the premise it’s okay to have a torture camp franchized over to places out of everyone’s sight. It wasn’t okay before and it’s not now, and serious country with some sense and a accountability would not employ such tactic.

Too early for the Metaverse, just in time for Metawankers.

Posting them around rich people’s private airfields would improve their footprint even further.

The LLM writing this feels almost sentient lol.

Imagine having a collection of Wikipedia backups and disclosing that on a first date.

What are we reading today, babe? 2020q1, the Covid hoaxes? Yeah, that’s the shit.

Swirl is destfuctive like almost everything in raster graphics with recompressing, but unswirling it back makes a good approximation in somehow reduced quality. If the program or a code of effect is known, e.g. they did it in Photoshop, you just drag a slider to the opposite side. Coming to think of it, it could be a nice puzzle in an adventure game or one another kind of captcha.

People there a genuinely fed up with what Israel-the-State did, does and means, but it’s universal, unconditional backing makes any objection ignored or even presecuted, that pushes them even further in their speech when they have a place to vent about it. Most (I heartly assume) won’t even think of supporting a random bombing of civilians in Israel, but IDF headquarters, Pegasus developers’ office may be seen as a fair game, since it is a matter of a personal choice. And these plans of Nvidia to build a facility there aren’t far from that, this company is collaborating and supporting whatever that exact state does. That puts a stain on every entity that knowingly wants to profit off that, from contractors to employees many of whom have career options elsewhere.

For Israel, inviting more and more companies on their ground brings them leverage, importance, legitimizes their landgrabs on international level and makes these facilities essentially a hostage, attack on which would be seen as extremely unacceptable. For Nvidia it’s, probably, an undisclosed agreement about price rates for land, resources, maybe an untapped recruiting potential, but more importantly less regulations compared to more woke countries, as everything benefitting Israel is pretty legal and nice. As Israel army and intelligence want to be on the edge of weaponizing machine learning, it makes sense these two partner up to ensure maximal efficiency in their endeavours. It is unethical to train your AI to aim a gun at brown people, but not there, and here half of the world pays for just that kind of thing.

For the war - it means, that another mega company put it’s chips on the current Israeli state, so we are further and further from any sensible resolution. It’s the opposite - it would feel even more empowered to do attrocities to everyone around them. And with how the situation unfolds, it’s hard to imagine this state, and even the same people who populate this place to stop being the driving force behind genocides and warcrimes for it looks if not designed to be a constant peace disruptor, an avantguard of western hard power in the ME, but happens to be just that, and succeedes at that.

As per their download page https://www.roblox.com/download , no. Not to say EGS is good, it’s Roblox treasuring independency where they can.

Would there still be a 2x multiplier? PS3 was weird, but does it translate to future Sony systems too?

Some of those on PC are under Denuvo, are different versions than console releases, not to say PS5 plays PS4 games too.

One of my main gripes with PC releases is that they almost never translate offline co-op playability, from GTA San Andreas (yeah) to recent Borderlands titles.

Besides, I do love a chance to deny temporal/permanent exclusives and half-baked ports my money, not for I’d play them, but for Sony and the likes knowing this tactic is not working anymore.

Ah, and Bloodborne. I hated Dark Souls, but the drive of that game is wild.

I wonder if PS5 emulation would be less troublesome than PS3 due to it being closer to the regular PC iirc.

Probably not even general purpose GPUs, although we sucked it up when RT and Tensor cores were put on a plate whenever we like it or not. These though at least provided something to the consumer unlike NPUs.

Insider info: the worst jews, the jewiest of them, are hiding in your local AI datacenters

She said what now?

I think that both GOG and Itch.io not only rely on their strenghts, but has their own niche market to cover, so they don’t directly compete but complete each other in the whole gaming scene and they can easily coexist. That’s Epic who wants to get a slice of general gaming pie Steam eats.

It’s so unfunny that the only one to contest Valve on PC monopoly is Tim Fortnite, who seemingly does the worst job everywhere yet still can still afford it. It’s almost like Gaben himself created a perfect villain for his company, so it’d never be criticized.
