The AI boom started last year, it's the reason prices are already high. So I'm skeptical that they are going to get higher, seeing as this whole AI thing feels like a bubble.
How is this false story still getting pushed to the top?
We literally just had a thread about it earlier this week. It was debunked.
The same story came up years ago, and it was debunked then too.
People will just believe anything these days.
So what exactly should a community titled /c/brexit talk about if not brexit?
None of these problems are really dealbreakers for a consumer-oriented file system in 2023. Not even ext4 supports CoW. Now that everyone boots off an SSD, things like file fragmentation no longer matter, and most of NTFS' continued slowness has more to do with Windows itself than the actual file system.
ReFS is Microsoft's new file system meant for more advanced use cases. It supports many but not all of these advanced features. Starting with Windows 11, you can actually boot off a ReFS drive, though I'm not sure that is a recommended configuration.
The only game I've played that actually has 100+ hours of quality content is Persona 5.
Every other single player game trying to give me more than ~30 hours of stuff to do ended up being a chore.
I think part of it is that there is an ideal time commitment for story driven games and it is between 5 and 30 hours. It's similar for movies, where the ideal range is 90 t o150 minutes. There can be exceptions, made by particularly skilled people, but just because I enjoy the 4-hour cut of Return of the King does not mean I want the next Marvel or DC movie to be that long.
People have been saying these things since 2020 and it has convinced me that people in online gaming forums are out of touch.
Here's my argument against the Series X though:
-
It has nothing I can't play on my PC. Even though Sony has started releasing their games on PC, their ports usually come years later. I don't hold this against Microsoft though, I'm more than happy to play games like Halo on PC instead of buying another console.
-
Sony console exclusives are better and more numerous than Xbox exclusives. This has been the case since the Xbox One.
-
The DualSense is a way cooler controller. I'm pretty miffed that the Xbox controller still doesn't have a gyroscope, When utilized properly a gyroscope makes aiming in shooters a lot easier.
So the way I see it, there isn't much reason to buy a Series X beyond its awesome backwards compatibility.
They're just people looking for attention.
The bigger problems Apple has are their enterprise device and user management, and the fact that many businesses are still reliant on Windows-only software.
Most companies I've worked for buy machines that usually aren't much cheaper than Apple equivalents, at least in terms of MSRP, despite the quality often being worse. My work-provided 2022 HP Z-Book 15 is more expensive as configured than my personal M2 14" MacBook Pro, and is still a shittier machine in just about every objective (and subjective) way I can think of. This is because enterprises typically buy business class laptops like Lattitudes and ThinkPads rather than lower cost (and less durable) consumer oriented machines. That said, it is not uncommon for IT departments at large enterprises to pay well under MSRP for these machines when buying in bulk.
Not to defend the scumbag or this scammy “web3” nonsense, but working for studios not part of the AMPTP during a strike does not necessarily make someone a scab. If the studio in question has their own contract with SAG then it’s 100% kosher.
This is why a lot of “indie” productions from studios like A24 are going forward while the rest of Hollywood is stuck doing nothing.
I don’t really like Destiny as a game, but the way Bungie has been handling their community is top notch. I love their low tolerance for bullshit. Other developers should be taking notes.
It's like Dvorak. You can be ~5% faster once you get over the turly enormous learning curve. The problem is, for most people, that 5% does not justify the huge initial investment.
It will have all the same deficiencies your eyes do. If you can't see through a wall, then neither can "Li-Fi".
The entire design philosophy of GNOME drives me up a wall. Who in their right mind decided we don't need minimize buttons on our windows?
The whole reason for this big migration is Reddit taking away mod tools. If you think Lemmy isn’t going to support things like this then you are in for a bit of a surprise.
I don’t like having cavities.
I don’t want to lose most of my teeth and have to wear dentures in my 60s.
The cleaning I get every 6 months is able to remove crap that regular brushing and flossing doesn’t.
It was because lemmy.world was experiencing explosive growth and did not have a good mechanism in place to limit spam and troll accounts. This combined with Lemmy's still infant moderating tools made it difficult for Beehaw to contend with the influx of lemmy.world users who were harassing beehaw users.
A mutual decision was made between both beehaw and lemmy.world to temporarily defederate while the moderation tools are worked on. They fully intend to re-federate once these tools are in place, as both instances have a fairly similar attitude towards harassment and hate speech.
There was no disagreement between the admins of beehaw and lemmy.world
99% of my play is docked and I don’t like that half the cost of my console went into making it portable rather than faster.
I hate the dumpster fire that is “definitive edition” as much as the next person, but…
It’s not $60 for San Andreas, that’s the price for all three bad remasters.
It’s not an ENB mod, actual artists made new shittier assets, and developers poorly ported the game to a new engine.
And this horse was already beaten into a fine paste over a year ago.
