Open-Source AMD GPU Implementation Of CUDA "ZLUDA" Has Been Taken Down
  • It doesn't seem like AMD has any intention of continuing to develop this project. The reason it went open source in the first place is that AMD stopped funding this project. The dev and AMD had an agreement that he could open source the code once they stop working together. They stopped working together because AMD wanted out of a project that would benefit its products, and that was demonstrated to work well. The dev opened sourced the project as agreed. This was back in Feb this year.

    Now AMD are trying to make the source code closed so no one can access it. They are not announcing a closed sourced version of this feature that they are developing themselves as far as I know. So this move is simply to remove code from the Internet that would allow their cards to work better in certain workloads when compared to their competitors. AMD should not have an incentive to do this. Nvidia has an incentive to get rid of this code, yes.

    The implication is that AMD is doing this because they don't want to truly compete with Nvidia. And they don't want to compete with Nvidia because their CEO's don't really want to compete. This is not the first time AMD has simply chosen not to put pressure on Nvidia with AMD seemingly comfortable with their place.

  • For your convenience
  • You can't even buy ammo from a vending machine in GTA. You still need to go to a gun store for that in the game. You can tell Rockstar have been slacking when real life gets ahead of their satirical game.

  • [GOG] Death's Door ($4.99 / 75% off)
  • I really enjoyed Death's door, so I took a look at Titan Souls, and it seemed quite different in style and how it played. I wasn't sure they were similar enough experiences for one to inform me of the other, but if its good, I might give it a go then. Thank you.

  • I couldn't watch this from the UK. I had to use a VPN. I have to say that from personal, and this is anecdotal however, I lived next to a food bank until a few months ago and every day that it was open (3 times a weeks), the queue for that place was spilling onto the streets. I remember remarking how many normal people I saw, families with children after them, people I would expect to see in a supermarket are waiting outside food banks.

    I think that if you know where to look, it is that bad. If you don't, though, it can be easy to miss as most people suffer is silence it seems, out of embarrassment or something else, I don't know. I wonder how many of these people I saw outside the food bank tell people they know that they are forced to use a food bank? I'm not judging them for potentially not saying something to anyone, if they feel embarrassed, but at the same time if people suffer in silence, the issue can be ignored.

    My personal opinion is that things are that bad, we just don't give it visibility and we don't talk about it.

  • Robbing Delivery Robots Is Now a Thing
  • The article mentioned tear gas canisters be equipped instead. I can't wait for a delivery robot to be near my property, someone tries to mess with it and gets gassed, then I get to enjoy tear gas as well from my front porch.

  • Latency just still isn't there unfortunately
  • Arctic Pro Wireless headset might be expensive but they use proprietary WiFi signal from their receiver to the headphones that makes response time so fast, the latency is a non issue and almost equivalent to a cable connection.
