The world seriously needs an alternative to US technology.

Also what does Biden have against Iceland and Greenland?

How do we know that the Chinese fighter jet is actually 6th gen and not say 5.999999… gen?

Maybe maybe not. That TGV was just an engine car.

On conventional rail? I think you mean that one TGV example with no cars or passengers just an engine car?

Can it go this fast while in service? Is it practical to do so? Where does this leave Maglev?

While the country’s high-speed rail system has yet to turn a profit on a national scale

Lots of brainworms in this sentence. It is never the purpose of infrastructure projects to turn a profit.

I grabbed a bunch of games for Playstation, Steam and Switch. Some were cross platform so I could have gotten it for any of them. I grabbed a bunch of Atelier and Senran Kagura games, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, plus old JRPGs on a discount like Omega Quintet, Seven Pirates H, Mugen Souls, and Megadimension Neptunia VII. I do want to get the Romancing Saga 2 Remake but since I am still playing the Remaster on XBox, I decided to wait.

Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists: Ateliers of the New World is going to scratch my simcity itch. I am not ready to get into Cities Skylines 2, yet, I did play the first though. I had Estival Versus and Peach Beach Splash on the Playstation but they have graphical glitches on the PS5, so I got them again for Steam discounted. I also bought Theatrhythm for the Switch though I already had it for Playstation. Also got Patapon.

Why?

I don’t think any of the Atelier games use UE5 and if they do they aren’t hurt by it

I haven’t played it yet. But I did play the FFVII Rebirth demo and I didn’t like it, nothing like the FFVII I loved back in the day.

Chrome and Android should be spun off into independent companies.

I wish “burns” was literal.

Something tells me the human in charge of the bot responses wrote this themselves.

The rise of China makes boycotting the West much easier.

It still serves as an unsinkable aircraft carrier off the coast of China

I played the free Astro Bot game bundled with the PS5 and found it to be a quality platformer and a nostalgic trip through Playstation history. I didn’t play the latest release but will eventually.

More options is good for everyone

I’m really glad that the Chinese are good at science and technology. The rest of the world needs an alternative that doesn’t come with strings attached.

don’t use evil proprietary software that doesn’t respect your freedom or privacy, otherwise screen sharing is easy to do on many desktop environments.

“learn Linux”

there is nothing to learn, KDE and GNOME are easy to use GUIs and there are distros that require no configuration

My wife finished it. It was too gray and red for me to enjoy.

And yes it is hard but rewarding.

I hope the AI bubble bursts

China graduates more scientists and engineers than the entire European -including North America- bloc. It would be more surprising if China did not catch up and surpass them.

I’m glad an alternative exist but it will take sometime for it to get established. I’d hazard a guess that RTL support isnt there yet

🤡

Why is this downvoted? Isn’t ArsTechnica a trusted tech news site? It is not controversial even if it has a neolib/neocon leaning -I can never tell the two apart-.

I can never understand why people would downvote someone sharing a news story.

I am upset some Senran Kagura games have not been fixed for PS5 :(

I’m just glad I lived to see Intel go from the leading semiconductor manufacturer to a joke. Sometimes it seems a dominant entity will forever be, but as always history happens and doesn’t end.

I personally like OnlyOffice, try it, it is FOSS and to me has a nicer UI.

I used to when I had a Mac.

Can’t tell if sarcasm or not. Here you go anyway https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System

Hahahaha! Oh my this is hilariously sad!

So they took -government- taxpayers’ money to create jobs. But instead spent it on stock buybacks. And now they are lying off thousands of workers because they need money?

We all knew the CHIPS Act was a scam, but I didn’t expect it to be obvious this fast. I thought they would be more tacit about it.

Over 60% of Saudis are under 30. Saudi Arabia is a big gaming market and only growing.

I hope so! I am so sick and tired of AI this and AI that at work.

Most of the world doesn’t know or care about US politics. X is a hellish platform though that does crack on pro-Palestinian users.

It is a custom architecture somewhat related to MIPS

Yellow peril

China is so far ahead

I used to use macOS and macOS used to have a true root user that you can enable. Sometimes after 2016 I think root was neutered and you can no longer do whatever you want. I don’t like using macOS anymore.

I can’t even remove the “Recommended” section from the Start menu

Some of us are not PC gamers and have no desire to be. I prefer consoles and will always do, though I miss the simple -no-install required- consoles of yesteryear.
