It won’t work as live action, and Sanderson is probably a little cagey after working on Amazon’s WoT. He would need to have absolute control over the writing.

Wax and Wayne in the style of Fullmetal Alchemist would be amazing though. Comedic but also serious.

To be fair if anyone is motivated to discover flaws in testing methodology and publicly disclose them right now it’s Labs.

I want to see AI Voyager episodes like people are doing for the Simpsons and family guy. Basic 3d models interacting with each other using generated dialog.

Just Janeway and crew wandering the Delta quadrant violating the prime directive in the name of coffee.

It’s getting hard to do just between AMD and Nvidia on Windows.

I’m old enough to remember the days when reviewers showed macro shots of the wires in half life 2 to test AA between different cards.

Does anyone even test that enabling “Ultra” settings results in the same configuration across vendors/generations? I’m pretty sure LTT Labs found cases where it wasn’t.

It’s between Apple and framework for me for my next laptop. The question is do I want a laptop that I can infinitely repair and upgrade, or do I want a laptop that actually has battery life when I pull it out of my bag because it has a functioning sleep mode. Thanks Intel. Maybe make sure your processors are actually power efficient before axing S3 sleep.

Protest laws generally revolve around the right to peacefully assemble. If the stated intention of your ‘protest’ is to block traffic and cause gridlock then that falls to meet the definition of ‘peaceful’, as it puts public safety at risk.

One of the linked articles quotes the Essex police who mention that one of the people impacted was a pregnant woman in medical distress, unable to receive medical care due to the actions of these ‘protestors’. I would imagine there were dozens of similar incidents over the 37 hours they held the city hostage.

D4 was dead the moment they announced D2R. Why would I pay $80 for a game with microtransactions and battlepass when I can pay $50 for a game that comes complete in box?

They should have taken D2R kept the mechanics and just rolled new classes, maps, and items.

I don’t want a new game, I just want more content.

Don’t forget that a large chunk of that money also goes to the creators. It’s significantly more than they get from showing you an ad.

I can increase my cellphone plan with the click of a button.

If I want to decrease it that same button redirects to a live chat where I have to talk to one of their agents.

Their agents will genuinely give you a better deal, but for some reason can’t change your plan to a lesser one without breaking your contract, causing hundreds of dollars in extra fees.

The brick and mortar agents can do it in 2 minutes with no hassle. You walk in and say I want this plan, show your id, sign the change request and you’re done.

I don’t even think they are doing it on purpose. Why would they have a button that connects me to someone they are paying to convince me to give them less money per month? They cut my wife’s bill in half because she is month to month.

It’s just Hanlons Razor. Supreme incompetence.

Lol the US will invade not because they are our ally, but because they believe they are the only ones that are allowed to attack Canada.

Google didn’t buy HTC. They bought the parts of the company responsible for making the first Pixel phone.

HTC is still a separate entity. They just don’t release 25 phones/year now, and all of their stuff is mid-range garbage.

I have a $2 USB C cable I got off of Ali that I use to charge my laptop at 65W. It’s rated for 100W but I have no way of testing it.

It’s actually higher quality than any official apple cable I’ve used, although that’s a pretty low bar.

The first USB-C Android phones were also only USB 2.0.

Although that was 8 years ago, when USB 3 was only just starting to become commonplace.

If I want to watch every game I need to subscribe to 3 different services and pay something like $60/month, and I’m in an out of market area.

The SoC lacks the hardware. Even the USB C iPads with A series chips operate at 2.0 speeds. They can only do 5Gbit in host mode, like with an external SSD. Plugged in to a computer they are 2.0.

I would imagine future chips will have the capability, once the Pro chips trickle down to the base models.

If Debian works on your hardware and you just want something that works and doesn’t give you issues then yes its a good choice. It will just work happily in the background for years.

Fedora Server is a great choice if its something you want to continuously tinker with. Each release averages a little over 1 year of support so you’ll want to do a dist upgrade after each new version comes out.

I’m currently considering switching to it on a couple of production servers I manage because they rely on PostGIS. EL9 and Debian rely on the official postgres repositories rather than shipping their own .deb/rpms and the official postgres repository’s GIS packages are so unreliable I think it would be more stable on Arch. With Fedora server however I can just install postgres and postgis from the official community repo.

• Ubuntu deviates from accepted standards too often (Mir, Upstart, Snap) thanks to Canonicals ham fisted attempts to redefine Linux.

• Arch has a tendency to break due to the maintainers commitment to staying true to upstream. Too often you end up on the Arch wiki looking up how to solve small issues that should have been in the original PKGBUILD

• Gentoo, not everyone wants to compile everything from source

• Debian’s commitment to FOSS results in frequent incompatibilities (both SW and HW) out of the box.

Fedora is the perfect middle ground. It implements the latest technology standards as soon as they are stable (eg, Wayland, Btrfs by default), stays fairly close and true to upstream while maintaining package stability, and overall just works with a large variety of lackages

Fedora is for people who use Linux as a tool rather than a hobby.

If a game can’t run on the Series S it means it also can’t be ported to the PC. Turn down the resolution and graphics settings until you get the same fps target and continue in with your day.

I would expect any game from a developer that complains about this to be so poorly optimized that it runs like it would on the Series S on the bigger consoles, and likely have garbage gameplay as well because they spent all of their budget on graphics.

My cellphone carrier hasn’t rolled out 5G service yet. I was disappointed when I got the vaccine and was still stuck on LTE.

I have to wonder how much of Reddit’s traffic is bots and lurkers though.

Post quality is a bigger indicator, and that does seem to be dropping. This is why Reddit banning 3rd party apps was such a big deal. It doesn’t matter if 99% of your users use the official app if 99% of the content posted to the side is posted by the 1% that don’t.

As someone who was around for the digg migration, it didn’t drop off overnight (hell digg.com is still around), but they gradually bled content until everyone was on Reddit. Lemmy right now is very reminiscent of early Reddit.
