19·2 天前+1 to submarine. :)
It wouldn’t sadden me in the least if video cards would stop shipping with RT cores. I would rather that go to more raster cores so every game can benefit from the performance boost.
It’s very weird that Linux is broken up into Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, Linux (non-WSL), Fedora, etc, etc. but none of the other OSes are. Example: Windows isn’t broken into Server 2022, Server 2025, Windows 10 home, Windows 10 iot, Windows 10 S, etc, etc.
It’s very hard to tell what the total numbers are as you can’t just add these together, since an indivdual might use several.
O, neat. Looks like it is a Rasperry Pi Compute Module 4 doing the work. Good news with that means it’s a generalized solution that will work on lots of similar devices if there are supply constraints on this particular one.
4·9 天前Damn, 20 seasons just since Aug 2023.
Honestly, I had forgotten Overwatch 2 was a game that existed. Whole thing was a shitshow on launch and have yet to feel the desire to play it.
MacOS getting a little side action, too.
OpenAI put in an order for 40% of RAM supply at two of the three companies that make RAM.
This is most certainly a supply/demand issue. See linked article for more details.
These are a pretty big deal. Means you are able to take out drones in a very cost effective way, and don’t have to get so close as to gun things, which could damage the aircraft when the target explodes.
There are potential countermeasures for this (evading when being chased), but this involves the Russian drones getting much more sophisticated (read: expensive) which is also a win.
4·13 天前Smarter Every Day actually made an in-person presentation to NASA stating the same thing with a crapload more detail.
1·15 天前Gives you more comparability on pen drives, too. Lots of people probably have a 8gb stick lying around, people are somewhat less likely to have a bigger one.
57·15 天前Microsoft itself, in fact, declared that all PCs will be AI PCs
It’s funny that Microsoft intended for this to be a marketing boon, but many users read it as a threat.
That’s great to hear!
And what about Linux?
Every distro has supported 64-bit programs for the last decade. Why aren’t you able to run 64-bit programs?
O, god yes.
We had this discussion at my company. And the result was we swapped over in our next major version and told any customer who couldn’t run a 64-bit program to get an OS made in the last decade. (no customer complained)
It makes sense to deprecate the 32-bit client. Win 10 32-bit was already pretty rare and any Linux distro has been 64-bit for the last decade.
This is only really appealing to console games as PC gamers have nothing to gain from buying one
I have a PC gamer friend who has an 8-year-old PC. He has said he is getting a Steam Machine.
What this offers PC gamers is a ready-made box. Some PC gamers don’t want to build a PC, they want to just buy it. And this offers a very standard package to get.
Same. Had to call my CC company and tell them to stop blocking payments to this ‘vendor’. Haven’t personally had issues after that call.
Keep it coming!
