That was 100% it's downfall. I don't know what executive said "But it Haaaass to run on them" - I guarantee every engineer there knew it would be a disaster on the older gen. I know they said at the beginning that it would, but they should have just sucked it up and said "Look, folks, we're sorry, it just can't run and you won't have a good time, so it's next gen only. We'll see you in Night City when you can"
It's about making more steam users. Windows is great, they can use steam. They're going after people who can't afford a pc. If people get a deck or steamos who already do own one, that's just gravy
Got it, I thought it was some hashing thing that would call out if something had happened, which I guess it does, I was wondering if there was something in code that would be forcibly changed so that trust would be broken
For us who are bad at writing though that's exactly why we use it. I'm bad with greetings, structure, things that people expect and I've had people get offended at my emails because they come off as rude. I don't notice those things. For that llms have been a godsend. Yes, I of course have to validate it, but it conveys the message I'm trying to usually
I use it for parsing through legalese or terms and conditions. IT IS NOT PERFECT. I wouldn't trust it ever over a lawyer. But it's great for things like "Is there anything here that is extra unusual or weirdly anti-consumer or very bad for privacy?". I think it's great for that.
People here are just "it will take jobs it's inherently evil". They said the same about Photoshop, and computers before. I think there are evil uses for it sure, but that doesn't mean that it has no valid usages
The "I'm a carnivore" people are always who you expect. People who try really hard to appear badass while at the same time are triggered by vegetarians and vegans
I guess how does the signature prevent you from lying? I'm genuinely curious
Exactly. Even Meta and their thousands of lawyers would immediately say this. How does it harm people? Prove it does. Why are they singled out? They're just showing content they think is relevant, and I'm guessing they honestly are. It's that political groups take advantage of that, and make slop that enrages and inflames. But Meta would just say "you can't punish us for trying to make our platform successful". A mess all around
Oh man, I did that at a midsize company as a jr. That's a right of passage. Informing millions of people that you're shit at testing. That was a fun conversation with my boss
It's their basic "backup" plan. B2 is more enterprise and you pay standard s3 rates for it, if you have a single computer you want to backup then you want their personal backup plan. Flat rate for unlimited data
Backblaze was solid. If it's only one computer you get an unlimited account and you're set
Exactly. Comedies don't need to involve will Farrell and have low ball humor. It can be subtle. The book was very funny, it's how he stayed alive, making light of his situation. I don't know why people would argue against that. In fact I'd say it does a great job at being an action, drama, and comedy
Cara Nicole. She does a good job at explaining finance and budgeting to the layman, I liked her because I found that what she said more or less aligned with what I've found to be true, so I think she's sending out smart ways of managing money to people. Plus she does fun videos about things like giving financial audits to Michael Scott and breaking down people's wish lists. Idk I always enjoy her videos.
Almost like shareholders would get value if they focused on making good games. Make good product, people buy, shareholder money go up. Why do we have to keep explaining that to them?
I always felt Andromeda got a bad rap. It's not a great game. It's not on par with mass effect. But it's fine, I had fun. I never felt like it was a waste of money. Not a masterpiece, but I enjoyed it
I'm personally looking into setting up a friendica instance for my family
Damn, the next Oscars are gonna be pretty light now
BEHIND THE SCENES: Rockstar Intel gives a behind the scenes look at development of The Liberty City Preservation Project
I was skeptical at first, I've seen a lot of attempts over the years, but holy shit, it works (and on Linux I might add).
Links to download are in the article. It's not seemless, but the world is "alive". Drove around, got a 5 star wanted level, died and respawned, people out walking around, rode the subway, it was great.
Things noticably not there - spawn locations of your favorite cars/helicopters, and of course no story stuff - but I spent a few hours having a blast.

Lucky for me my parents were both "I didn't save anything for retirement, my kids will take care of me when I'm older", so I don't have to suffer through this.
See! You're not THAT poor. Just give it another few decades!
The first scripted series officially sanctioned by Formula 1 is being developed by Amazon MGM Studios for Prime Video
Engines are being warmed up on “One,” the drama series set in the world of Formula One racing that Felicity Jones is attached to both star in and executive produce.
Variety understands that the series is in development with Amazon MGM Studios for Prime Video, although it has not been officially ordered yet.
“One” — which marks Formula 1‘s first officially sanctioned scripted series — will focus on a failing family-owned racing team, led by Jones’ character, as it contends with fierce personalities, ever-changing rivals and multi-million-dollar stakes.
The series is produced by Bedrock Entertainment, launched in 2020 as a joint venture between “Band of Brothers” producer Tony To, “True Detective” executive producer Dan Sackheim and ITV Studios America. Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby — who were Oscar nominated for “Children of Men” — will write and executive produce.
To will executive produce “One” for Bedrock, alongside Sackheim and ITV Studios America’s president and managing director Philippe Maigret.
Jones will also produce alongside her brother Alexander Jones for their Piecrust Pictures banner, which recently boarded graphic novel adaptation “100 Nights of Hero,” starring Nicholas Galitzine, Charli XCX and Richard E. Grant.
News of Amazon MGM developing “One” comes amid a busy period for Jones, who recently landed a Golden Globes nomination for “The Brutalist” and has several projects coming up, including the feature films “Night Train” and “Oh. What. Fun.”
One of those things I wish every once in a while, to meet the actor/actress I most enjoy and just ask them questions about their roles and what they were thinking.
Of course the worry is that they are completely opposite in real life and it would ruin the illusion, so a catch-22. I both want to know more about them, but also I don't want to know anything.
To kick us off, some here know my favorite actress is Felicity Jones, and I would absolutely love to meet her and know more about how she chooses a role, she is very selective now. She is also very secretive about her process and how she gets into character, yet she is one of the best biographical actresses in my opinion after Jane Hawking and RBG.
A fun one I think would be Woody Harrelson, talking to him from Cheers up to Hunger Games and more, he seems fun to have a beer, but he also seems like a prime "actually an asshole" candidate.
Taylor Swift performed her final Eras Tour concert on Sunday in Vancouver, bringing a significant chapter in modern music history to a close.
Has anyone been using any great video models? I've used SVD and it's been... fine, but I see some really great videos online and don't know how they're generated. I'm thinking mostly Img2Txt style, in ComfyUI so I can generate an image and then animate it. (My perfect case would be something like multimodal, where I give it an image and a prompt, and a video would be spit out)

A little late, but realized we are celebrating 30 years! Nov (14) 1994
Hey folks, happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating today!
I have a Synology DS1821+ that I have completely filled. I'm looking for expanding, but I don't really want to completely replace the Synology yet.
Does anyone know if there is a way to expand the number of drives? I've heard murmers that I can use a DAS, but nothing for sure. Wondering if anyone has attempted this before. Thanks!
