Cybertrucks sure, fair game. Brand new Teslas, same. But I’m sure there’s decent folk that can’t sell their older Teslas today without taking a big loss…

Sleeping on those roots though… I can feel the back pain from way over here.

Well, they do feel warm to the touch, but bananas only grow in warm and humid climates, so everything feels that way.

So many games work on Proton/Wine these days, it’s not really surprising anymore.

Nowadays you have a huge chunk of games being built on massively popular engines like Unity and Unreal, making it much easier to support/optimise for.

Another big point is that you’re not developing exclusively against DirectX. Vulkan is very popular, and both APIs are frequently supported by game engines. This introduces some “good habits”, in that it forces the devs to think about compatibility from the get go, instead of trying to come up with shady tricks to get one or two extra fps that only work in specific conditions and crash the game otherwise.

I’m so impressed by the strength of character she has to go up against the world like this… A 15 year old girl? What a remarkable person.

I don’t find the picture sad, on the contrary, it’s goddamn inspiring!

Of course I am, there’s no way I can escape mkvs. It’s not too bad if it doesn’t have to transcode the actual video stream, but having to burn in subtitles is a common issue 😭

I still can’t play my videos on Firefox without transcoding them, so I honestly hope they get it right this time.

Ah yes, selling your integrity for clicks and pushing propaganda for cash, welcome to the information age.

It seems like a smear piece because it makes it sound like DeepSeek is doing something that the others aren’t, while the truth is that ever single on of them collects your data.

At best, it’s disingenuous. At worst, with the ability to run locally, it’s a blatant lie.

It’s based on guessing what the actual worth of AI is going to be, so yeah, wildly speculative at this point because breakthroughs seem to be happening fairly quickly, and everyone is still figuring out what they can use it for.

There are many clear use cases that are solid, so AI is here to stay, that’s for certain. But how far can it go, and what will it require is what the market is gambling on.

If out of the blue comes a new model that delivers similar results on a fraction of the hardware, then it’s going to chop it down by a lot.

If someone finds another use case, for example a model with new capabilities, boom value goes up.

It’s a rollercoaster…

They got me, installed Mint a couple of weeks ago

I purged the Windows partition yesterday, fellt like pouring bleach on a stain…

This reminds me a lot of that area in Norman Reedus And The Magical Feetus… where you meet Mama I think?

This is the way.

I always wait for the prices to drop before buying any game, and never ever pre-buy them. The only exception is early access from indie devs, I’ll help them along if they show promise.

My jolly roger has been stuffed in a trunk somewhere for years, but looks like it might be coming out…

End stage capitalism of the brain, all your ideas are ours and you owe us money for thinking them.

What a great idea there bud

Ok that one wins

Shhh don’t spoil it, that’s the plot twist for the season finale!

Adding a +1 to this, same situation. For the longest time, I had to keep a running totall in my head, down to the cent, of the few things I put in the supermarket cart to make sure I had money to pay for them.

Life has been kind, and gradually things got better and when it sunk in that I was OK was when I realized that at some point I had stopped counting the cents.

Nowadays I treasure my time and my wellbeing more than money - I won’t do something that takes away from that, even if pays more.

Clearly there’s people who won’t stop at a billion dollars, but for me, the freedom of adding whatever I want to my cart without having to think if I can afford it is all I need to live a happy life.

Yeah but at what point does it just become a pc with a controller…

The ex’s perspective is just a harem anime, where he gets bullied relentlessly by the girls who still don’t 100% believe the shape shifter story but are willing to look for it just in case.

Try finding a triple A game released in the last 10 years that hasnt been heavily designed around multiplayer

What? In 2024 alone, would you say games like Alan Wake 2, Baldurs Gate 3 or Elden Ring are “heavily designed around multiplayer”?

Sure you have your FIFA’s and CoD and a bunch of other MP games, but single player games are still a thing.
