Out of curiosity, why do you refuse to support Nvidia? AMD isn’t some saint, they’re a shitty corporation just like Nvidia. They got lucky when Jim Keller saved their asses with the Ryzen architecture in the mid-2010s. They haven’t really innovated a god damn thing since then and it shows.
Edit: I get it, I get it, Nvidia is a much shittier company and I agree. I was pretty drunk last night before bed, please pardon the shots fired
What happened between Linus and GN?
Aren’t phone screens AMOLED? I’m definitely not an expert, but I thought it was a variation of OLED, which would explain why text looks better.
That being said, I also have an OLED Steam Deck and I can read text on it just fine if the scaling is set correctly in the game or just browsing the web normally in desktop mode.
Wtf movie is the 8800 from? That and the top right are the only characters I don’t recognize.
Bluesky likely doesn’t want to deal with the hassle and the percentage of users from the state that use it is so minimal they just don’t view it as worthwhile.
Online and not LAN? I have doubts.
My office uses a model trained specifically on our work data. They can actually be quite accurate in those contexts. That’s what many corpos are using the tech internally for. Can’t remember what random SOP/regulation/etc covered XYZ and meta tags aren’t finding it on your SPO doc library? This tech comes in clutch ~95% of the time.
For this broad, ambiguous, general purpose approach? Yeah, idk, I guess many people are meeting their social needs with it, apparently.
Edit: actually, I did ask copilot a couple days ago a series of Pokemon related questions my son was asking me about (I hadn’t played any of the games in a long time). It was quite helpful figuring out all the evolution requirements and whatnot without the hassle of navigating various websites.
Yeah, agreed. It is concerning, but it’s hard to take all those comments too literally without actually knowing what’s going on with them.
That being said, there is a huge loneliness problem that’s been growing among pretty much every single developed country (and I’m sure it’s going on in developing countries, too, it’s just less studied/documented). Turns out, getting everyone addicted to looking at screens all day every day probably isn’t so healthy for social development.
However, just to be devil’s advocate: Are we certain social health was even great before modern tech? Or were these issues equally present but just undiagnosed/not studied/talked about?
I think it’s still mostly used ironically. Though, it’s hard to know anymore. I know it is among my social circles, at least.
Very cool stuff, and this snippet really blew my mind:
At its peak it generates 100 terawatts – equivalent to five times the average power consumption of the world – although only for a few millionth of a billionth of a second.
It’s refreshing to see news about awesome sci-fi-esque tech that is in the application phase with some really cool experiments lined up.
Yeah, what an incredibly stupid opinion.
This continually gets passed around, but it’s the result of bad journalism. It was a comment made by one of the developers and was never an official comment/statement from Microsoft.
Just adding for the record that I despise Microsoft, so I’m not trying to defend them. Just always see this referenced and figure it’s better to set the record straight.
Jfc… I hate Microsoft so damn much.
Did something happen recently that triggered this being posted now?
Oldschool Discord really was modern IRC. The creeping enshittification of it over the last 5-6 years has been sad to witness.
But…why? I never faulted people asking for any sort of discount when I worked retail. Why blame them for simply asking if there was a way to get something cheaper? I couldn’t give a fuck if corporate was making less money while my fellow citizen saved some cash.
Wondered if this was actually real since I saw the post and realized what community it was posted under, haha:
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/bus-ticket-20-squats/
Mostly true
In Cluj-Napoca, Romania, a so-called “health ticket” was introduced that allowed individuals to use public transportation for free by completing 20 squats. However, the organizers only implemented it in one city for a limited time. As of this writing, it’s unknown if the program will resume at a future date.
It’s too bad it was only kind of a social experiment vs a real government-sponsored health campaign that was still ongoing. I think it’s a pretty great idea. However, I can also see it getting some negative backlash if the government funded it since those with certain disabilities wouldn’t be able to utilize it. I think it’d be easy enough to incorporate a variety of healthy exercises that are more accessible to get around that aspect, though.
That’s completely valid, I haven’t had issues on Linux myself with nvidia, but I know it’s definitely a thing for a lot of people.
