Quite a disappointment, to be honest. I’m still running a 1080ti, and this card is more than capable today. Obviously it’s no 5090, but it runs everything I’ve wanted to play on it, par MHWIlds, which runs on newer systems just as poorly anyway
No one gets a third term, and that’s not negotiable. They can get the guillotine though
Didn’t think it could get worse, and yet here we are. Not sure if it were an experiment, but for a while now my search results were always exactly 5 relevant videos, a block of shorts, and then just completely unrelated stuff.
I don’t really understand why we can’t have it, like it was before. If you’re subbed to a channel, you get the videos in your feed as they come in, and search just works as intended.
They are engineering solutions for problems that don’t need to exist
What are they so afraid of? They’re public servants, so they should be publicly identifiable. If they don’t like it, get off the government payroll
The “autopilot”
That’s the obvious answer, but it was available long before the orange twat too
I genuinely cannot understand how this 4th reich mobile is legally allowed to not just have this feature available to the public, but also sell it for a considerable amount of money. Even on US roads, it is not even remotely close to ready
Congrats to the devs. Biome is awesome, and it’s been a pleasure to use it
It would be yet another spit in the face, if they released a 80$ base game, with the typical 2 season passes, totaling almost 300$ in dlcs of questionable quality. But I wouldn’t hold my breath for anything, because it’s 2K and Gearbox we’re talking about
People will inevitably die as a result of this change. Call your representatives
At some point, it will only be worth it, if you either finish games at an alarming rate, or play so many different games, that buying them separately would make no sense
I’ve switched my Nix setup to this sudo implementation a while ago, and have noticed no downsides thus far. I’ll take the memory safety, with a fresh codebase
Probably not. Steam for macOS still has no SteamPlay support, so your best bet is installing the regular Steam through a separate Heroic prefix. Works great, but it does still require Rosetta.
That said, Box64 and FEX are both making a lot of progress, so it’d be awesome to see these in action officially soon
If this were an optional “skin” of sorts, it would have been completely fine with me. But this is a forced redesign, and a really bad one at that. There will likely be changes before the GM release comes out, but overall I just don’t like the design direction, nor the performance implications
Was this not already common sense?
Still has an LCD panel, and still has regular sticks. I guess saving 0.10$ per unit adds up
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not suggesting that they should just say okay, installing instagram from a Limewire download is the intended path now.
Using AUR or Nixpkgs to install your stuff is perfectly acceptable to me, for these exact reasons. You have a choice, you’re choosing your preference, and at the end of the day you get a vetted source from a trusted repository.
Choice is what matters to people, and it’s being taken away from them. But even beyond that, if i wanted to install an “unsupported/untrusted” app on my device, that should fully be my choice
I still hate the term “sideloading”, when used in this context. You don’t “sideload” anything on your computer. You just install things, from wherever you damn desire.
They only started using the term here, to gaslight people into thinking that installing mobile apps from sources, other than the ones that give Apple money, is somehow insecure
I use Nix on my M1 Pro machine, and it’s by far my favorite laptop yet. The company and their business practices absolutely do suck though.
That said, there is certainly a middle ground for software there. I hate windows as much as the next guy, but macOS is at least Unix-adjacent, so it’s not a complete pain
Just a reminder that the government is actively voting against regulations on AI, because obviously a lot of these people are pocketing lobbyist money
