… wait, you guys live without undo button??

Yes, DLSS/FSR/XeSS are great, but are there bcs of lack of performance, a substitute to lowering resolution.

I would never use it if I didn’t have to.





Omg I can’t believe they’ll mimic the appearance of a standard graphics card!! What will they think of next?!

(I thought they at least showed the pcb)


They textured instead of polygoned/tessellated/bumpmapped. The 2D doesn’t logically match the 3D. Idk, it’s weird, like a hasty remaster where they applied some general rules/scripts instead of doing the work.



I personally don’t think it was ever fine, not when there is a giant publisher standing & profiting behind it.

For smol independent studios or even one-man-dev teams (as a high risk “investment”/support) I would understand.

I want to finance devs & artists as much as possible, not lowering financing costs of a giant company (and give them even more monetization opportunities).

Im not familiar with the Pokemon thing you mentioned but that seems like an artificial scarcity. Physical copies could always be stamped overnight (vidya game magazines did it for decades).


It’s not just petty, it’s also about not supporting shitty companies & services for a better world tomorrow.



Bcs of anti-greed policy and those not being open source.

FOSS FTW


They keep remastering games I didn’t come around to play the first time. Aging sux (mine, not of the games).


I miss my N900 with Debian.


We can’t do the profitable thing without the more expensive and even more lucrative thing, please, think of our monopoly.



And now when you buy their games none of moneys will go to the actual devs??
(Or do they get royalties?)

Arr, what a shitty system we built for ourselves.




Oh noo, right in the monopoly!!

Unless Organic Maps has a sexy dating game going on I don’t know about.




Every time Bundai Namco flashbangs you someone at the office has to throw party. They are just s victim of their own success.


Exactly, I don’t want an android console, or e-reader (not even a phone actually, but let’s wait for Linux).

If not for such conveniences, I wouldn’t play as much.

I also use the quick insta-switch to the previous game played. And I like that basically any game even played just automatically remains suspended for you to continue at any time (no need for manually saving states, tho you can set shortcuts for that too ofc).


Onion (and Garlic) is so good, almost everything just works & if you want to fiddle with settings there are so many.

Also it never crashed on me.



I really hope classic RISC-Vs will be economically successful & thrive … open sourceally


There are actually like 10 exact same glasses from different manufacturers/brands, from 250-ish moneys upwards (you might need various addition interfaces for your devices, like PC, HDMI, etc - sold separately and unreasonably expensive for what they are).

They all use the same design, Sony OLEDs, speakers, batteries, accessories, etc, they only differ in front design.


Yes, disappointing, but this might not be for the full fov.

It says 50°, and such glasses can be worn on different lengths from the eyes.

Regardless, I agree with you - I absolutely want to see (a lot) more than 1080p of like financial data/code/hentai without moving my head, otherwise I’ll just keep using my office monitors.


… so they actually managed production/made it feasible … aaand then decided on ChromiumOS (supposedly because the “monitor” is a bit different)?

Such glasses is what I need from (non-gaming) VR. But not like this :(


I was there, 3000 years ago, the smooth textures in Quake & NFS, and the lighting effects in Unreal and Quake 2.
Tomb Raider had Glide too. So perfectly pointy.

I have the fondest memories of those days & 3Dfx as a brand. I still have my Voodoo 2s (2×12MB) connected in SLI, I should get them a better display (case?) actually.


Yes, humans kinda brute-forced intelligence with current assets - made it bigger (with some birthing issues) & more power hungry (with some cooling issues), but it mostly works.



From the early days of Edvard home designing water blocks to cool our then single core CPUs (before any commercial activity) EK has transformed from an in-house everything approach to basically a ‘brand & design first’ company. And with that, brand and design need to fuel sales growth, not the manufacturing margins per se. Strong branding considerations were def there from the start tho.




There are a lot of 3" Chinese Android phones, but I’ve never seen one actually having normal specs (well, besides the display perhaps, I suspect its size isn’t the only issue).


I hope the main char is Secretariat (the one from Late late show) who is ridden by a Craig Ferguson that just makes your quests more difficult.


… from a homelab pov I should start comparing dB/TB …
