I’m not so paranoid, but at the same time, will it actually be useful? This sounds like a way to generate a mountain of data with minimal benefit. I don’t really trust AI at the moment to be able to help me with some vague recollection of work that was done 3 weeks ago, for example (I go through a lot of cases each month).

Oh yea, I tried that too, nope, just simply can’t compare. That’s why Adobe still gets my money as much as I don’t want to give it to them. Luckily the Photography plan hasn’t increased in price… yet.

I’ll still be using Windows (no time for Linux), but really, why does the user have to do this for a pleasant experience? MS shouldn’t be hostile towards their users.

Yea, that was my take as well. Try RawTherapee, they said. Nope, inferior, there were some photos where I could spot them in full-screen view, not even at 100%.

Don’t forget, control the sale of data too. Audits etc to make sure they comply with privacy safeguards, and so on.

This is just pandering as well as, I suspect, to give a corporate donor a profit-making business.

That’s just a you thing, the two I mentioned are earbuds.

I have earphones that are 15-20 years old (UE Triple-fi 10s and Yuin PK2s, the first wave of Chi-fi products), 2-3 year (or even 5) lifespan for audio products is insane.

I’ve missed this thread for a few weeks already (as in, I didn’t see it). Completed Disco Elysium twice since then, amazing game! Very sad that there’s not going to be a sequel; the world is fascinating, as is the style of gameplay.

Well, I saw this coming and got a new 2TB SSD before 11.11 even. Though now thinking if I should have gotten 4TB instead. xD

Also, this kinda is like collusion, no?

Great, so it’ll take AI to set 16GB as minimum.

I still shudder that there are machines still being sold with 8GB RAM, that’s just barely enough.

This is why I don’t like the Fediverse as much. Can you believe that loon got so many upvotes? Describes the average mentality around these parts, what a turn off.

I’m sure there’ll only be people who read the headlines, so here’s what’s going on:

Overall shipments decreased by 40 million, but there were two companies who made gains within the top 5: Apple, who shipped 8 million units more, and Transsion, who shipped 22 million units more. Samsung dropped 40 million units, similar to the overall shipments. Looks like Transsion made the most of it during this dip, taking away marketshare from other Android phone makers.

Fairphone also deliberately chose an industrial variant of the Snapdragon 778G just so they could get by the issue mentioned by nyan.

Meanwhile all the scammers and spammrs still get to post their ads.

So so so many. Right off the top of my head:

• Guild Wars Season 2, one of the later missions. It was stealth gameplay. I hate stealth. Paid someone 100g to run it for me.
• FTL’s boss.
• Warframe’s Glassmaker season fight with Nihil.
• Currently, Ace Combat 7’s Pipeline Destruction.

The animations showing the transformation of a page into a blah-SEO clone really sold the article for me. Really reminds me of how shitty the “modern” web is nowadays. I also think it’s time I signed up for Kagi.

Have you tried installing a copy of Windows in Dosbox, then install the game from there? I remember doing something like that to play the original SimTower.

Very likely the game is 16 bit mode, which is why nothing in Windows 10’s compatibility mode is working, as it doesn’t support 16 bit programs.

How bad is the scalping? I’m in Singapore and the price premium is about 10%.

The higher price isn’t permanent.

I’ve worked in camera retail and the local shops do just that, actually, and it’s effective. The FOMO people get their stuff first at a higher price, the shop gets a boost in margins, and everyone else gets to enjoy cheaper prices three months later (and have the early adopters sit through the bugs and first-run issues).

Definitely a good RTS, feels like it peaked with the first Company of Heroes.
