Game prices haven’t followed inflation because the market kept growing so fast that they made it up on gross revenue. That’s coming to an end (hence the post-lockdown market contraction and layoffs), so expect prices to go up by at least $10 every generation from now on.

Mate, that’s from 2022. I’ve scanned through it and it seems completely unhelpful.

I can only take so much of Dan, but I like the rest of them. Grubb is great, Jan is a sweetheart.

Bakalar joined GB East 10 years ago. Jan’s been at GB for 7+ years, but as a producer so you wouldn’t have seen his face as much until the big shift when Jeff, Brad, Vinny and Alex left. Grubb only joined in 2022.

RIP, even though they made some mistakes along the way I really liked Polygon.

The video’s soundtrack of covers of 2000s music is masterful 👏

It’s reviewing very well.

Underpinning the technology are NVMe and PCIe 3.0 interfaces, which allow for speeds of up to 2GB/s (using a PCIe 4.0 interface).

What a deranged sentence.

I’m really enjoying the game, but also agree with the article. Still, it doesn’t detract too much from the experience imo.

Given the vitriol against Ubisoft (I’m not commenting on how justified it is), obviously they need to do something to counter it. The anti-woke crowd are an incredibly noisy minority.

I think you might be being a bit dramatic.

I feel like the article you’re commenting on undermines your case.

You’re paying for the mainboard as well, it’s all one soldered package.

Having worked from Europe for a US tech company, that’s the norm. I had about 15 Americans reporting into me and I required them all to take a minimum of 20 days off. Most of them found this confusing at first, like it was a trap or something, and I had to insist. My peers in leadership in the US could not understand how my employee retention was so good.

Man, 14 years is a hell of a long time in one place.

That is not the standard launch metric in the industry, that comes in quarterly earnings calls. Are you one of the go woke go broke brigade?

Epic is up there mainly because Tim Sweeney is a fuckhead. The Epic exclusives don’t help my opinion of them either. I suspect I wouldn’t like Gabe Newell’s politics if he shared them, but he’s far too clever to do that.

Nvidia’s equivalent (DIGITS) is $2,999.

Looking at the others in the ultra-SFFPC market segment they’re targeting (e.g. Mac Mini, Intel NUC, Nvidia DIGITS) this is a solid first outing.

It’s a standard ITX mainboard that happens to have soldered ram. It will fit in any ITX-compatible case and even has dedicated PCI-e slot in case you do use a case with space for a PCI-e device like an SFP+ card.

On the upside, the unified ram means the GPU can use it, and so you could run 70b-size models on it.

Isn’t that inconvenience a per car issue? It just autostarts on mine, and is a whole main screen quadrant when it’s not in the foreground.

You can install adb and use adb reboot recovery

Android Automotive is not the same thing as Android Auto. Blame Google for the product naming.

Nah.

I feel pretty fortunate to be running this on an AMD GPU on Linux and having a grand old time. I’ve about 2 hours in it and there was a single sequence with out of sync dialog, no other issues.

They have been giving free updates to this famously procedurally generated game for almost 10 years. If you expected a different kind of update (and thought it was a paid update?), that’s on you.

Being punished for leaving bot matches is the only issue I’d have with this.

Vegging out playing PC games on your TV is a niche of a niche. I’m already a member though.

First 3 may be true, but the company’s been around for 5+ years.

Actually I take it all back, the support for push notifications isn’t in Lemmy itself yet. It’s not practically usable for you.

Replies, mentions and messages, afaik. Not sure what other kind of notifications you’d be expecting.

Thunder has experimental support for it. You’ll also need a unifiedpush distributor installed. F-Droid has a good explainer on UnifiedPush at https://f-droid.org/2022/12/18/unifiedpush.html

TL;DW?

They should take the pay day and start another studio, if they’re so sure this is the right industry for them

Larian told Hasbro to fuck off for a BG3 DLC and/or sequel, so there’s definitely an opening for someone to pick up that torch. That said, I also think they’ll go with their own system and brand.

This won’t be popular, but any time I see an android screenshot with a custom font it looks offensively bad to me. I still think it’s important for accessibility reasons though, as certain fonts can be a big help for people with dyslexia.

I don’t know whether it’s the case here (it’s the biggest sale of the year regardless), but often game developers will have licenses for some of the content in the game (music, most often), and when those licenses are soon expiring they do a fire sale on it. The previous Forza Horizon game comes to mind.

Psychonauts 2, 90% off.

My money’s still on Denuvo being the root cause.

There are tax efficiencies for them being here, but they actually have a sizeable staff presence too. Of all the tech companies in Dublin, they’re the ones I’d most like the opportunity to work with.

Look at the boosted posts.
