Steam Deck is the first thing that comes to mind, I use it everyday.

There are a few EDC items I got as gifts that I use nearly everyday as well:

• Leatherman Surge
• Leather holster for Surge and other gear
• Benchmade 551-1
• Shokz Openmove bone conductive headphones

I feel like this is virtue signaling more than actually addressing a real problem with Clair Obscur.

You can supposedly fix this by setting environmental variables in Heroic. Go to the game in heroic>advanced>environmental variables (wiki page)

Then do the following variable:

Key: LANG, Value: en_US.UTF-8

Key: LC_ALL, Value: en_US.UTF-8

Key: LANGUAGE, Value: en_US:en

They are releasing lots of open weight models. If you want to run AI stuff on your own hardware, Chinese models are generally the best.

They also don’t care about copyright law/licensing, so going forward they will be training their models on more material than Western companies are legally able to.

My wife frequently puts one of those hanayama metal puzzles in my stocking, and I’ve always enjoyed getting those.

People with high end systems (5090s etc) are apparent having a lot of performance issues, and are unable to run the game at 60fps/4k without AI upscaling or frame generation.

There’s also a lot of complaints about stuttering, and the game wouldn’t launch at all for a lot of people when it first came out.

I’ve long heard that his identity is an open secret and a lot of people know his actual identity. Solid chance the UK government already knows who he is.

They were considering blocking Google from paying Mozilla to be the default search engine, which is almost all of Firefox 's revenue.

It kinda makes sense, chome being the dominant browser gives Google a search advantage, and the other alternatives (like safari and Firefox) both make deals with Google to have it be the default as well.

But removing those deals would be more disastrous for Firefox than for Google.

We avoided the worst outcome, they were considering killing Firefox to prevent a Google internet monopoly.

Yeah, I was recently reading about how a companies went from getting a couple hundred resumes a quarter to 1000s of resumes a month. They’re either using AI to try to process them, or ignoring resumes completely to use recruiter services.

Generally the same culture, but skewed towards more tech savvy types and online-centric culture groups. It’s a lot smaller than reddit, which helps a lot with the quality of interactions, but I think if it grew enough it would end up very close to reddit culture.

These are both on the Lenovo Legion Go S. The significance here is that there’s both official OEM windows and official OEM steamOS for this device.

Windows uses a lot of power just existing, so you can’t get any of the windows handhelds down to a low power consumption. I remember when the Rig Ally first came out, the verge tested it using 5-8w of power on the steam deck, and using 16-22w of power on the Ally. Some of that is the hardware (the Deck has a really power efficient chip for low power games), but a lot of it is windows.

Yeah you’re right, I had mostly been looking at the difference between the steam deck and legion Go S on that chart and barely even noticed the difference between windows on the legion Go S there.

My understanding is it’s mostly just the advantage of not having windows running hogging resources, so it should be a bigger gain for CPU bound games.

**Edit ** There can be performance gains from using vulkan over DirectX too, so there probably are GPU gains as well. It will depend on the game though

I think this screenshot is pretty telling.

It’s pretty wild that this game is still in development, I remember reading about it back in 2012/13 ish.

Apparently the video was presented after the verdict was already issued. This video had no impact on the actual outcome of the trial, and was more of just a closing statement.

So the judge didn’t approve this a testimony, but just found it emotionally touching.

May not work in all cases, seems like everyone that goes to egypt to see the pyramids comes back hating egyptians.

I’ve seen discussions where the topic was something like “Where did you travel to that you would never go back to again”, and the responses there heavily implied that travel can inspire racism.

I suspect we may see a lot of countries get pushy about trying to encourage people to have kids. There were lots of short term economic benefits to pushing families into having both partners working, but in the long term countries are still built around needing a growing population to do well.

You can offset lower birthrates with immigration to an extent, but itherwise we would need pretty major social changes to sustain society if birth rates continue to decline.
