My backlog has reached that point where I need to be a responsible adult and finally beat some games, so this time I’ll pass.
But the PS games like Horizon: Zero Dawn are tempting.
I’m also on Mastodon

Microsoft: But how am I supposed to know you don’t want cookies without storing 29 cookies on your device?
One Friday afternoon, Gary called the engineering staff together and announced that he would give them all a raise over the weekend. On Monday, when they returned to work, contractors began raising the building to make room in the basement for a new Digital Equipment Corporation VAX 11/750 computer system. After several weeks, supported by heavy wooden beams and house jacks, the engineers’ desks were five feet higher.
I’d have loved to work for him!
Easy! Just sleep faster!
Beyond the proven addictive effects of handing a dopamine device to your kid, there are legal ramifications many parents aren’t aware of.
WhatsApp and TikTok aren’t just there like air, free for all to consume. They are service providers and both sides are bound by a contract, the EULA. IIRC, WhatsApp recently reduced it minimum age from 16 to 12. So if you install WhatsApp on your 8 year old’s phone, you have broken the contract.
Well, my handwriting is an unnatural abomination. Maybe I should try switching hands?
I’m putting way to much thought in this, but I am seeing a payphone and no camera, but I’m also seeing an anatomically correct hand and a properly mirrored Champion logo.
That writeup from Xiph is excellent. The comparison with adding ultraviolet and infrared to video makes so much sense. But you’re dealing with audiophiles who seriously consider getting hi-end power and ethernet cables. I read somewhere that there was a listening test with speakers connected with hanger wire - and audiophiles couldn’t tell.
In the end, it’s all physics. I could never hear a quality improvement beyond normal 16bit, 320kbps, no matter how demanding the music.
A few years ago I did listening comparisons of Amazon Music, Spotify, Deezer, Tidal and Quobuzz. At least for my ears, Tidal was way better, with engaging dynamic range and clarity. Quobuzz was just a little better, while listening to Spotify and Amazon Music was like FM radio in comparison, loud and compressed.
Pricewise, they’re all somewhat similar. I went with Tidal because it has good quality, a good catalogue, and pays the artists better.
I feel called out on this one :D For years we were like “Marry and have kids? No way, we’re way too irresponsible ourselves!” After 14 years we thought we might as well marry. And now it’s been (counts on fingers) 27 years, and we have three wonderful kids and couldn’t imagine any other life!
And another kid called Snotty.
The question isn’t how high the resolution of reality is, but how well we can process it is. There is an upper limit to visual acuity, but I’d have to calculate what an arc-minute at 6 meters would be and I’m too lazy right now. Regarding fps, some people can notice artefacts up to 800hz, but I’d think going with 120hz would be ok. Remember, you’ll have to generate stereoscopic output.
Hey, I also had a toy like that! Cool!
Who could’ve imagined that Google is becoming just as mediocre and boring as any other large corporation. What a surprise!
Do the LLMs have any knowledge of the effects of violence or the consequences of their decisions? Do they know that resorting to nuclear war will lead to their destruction?
I think that this shows that LLMs are not intelligent, in that they repeat what they’ve been fed, without any deeper understanding.
We’re just expected to bow to authority.
Even if you’re the authority yourself? Also: that sounds like a great place for con-men 🤔
Being a bit closer to the C-Level of a larger company, I can assert that greed, lack of vision and jumping on bandwagons is not exclusive to one nationality.
I’ve heard that argument floating around and I don’t buy it. Step-up and down converters are a thing.
If you have bad eyesight, VR won’t help you. The goggles contain lenses to magnify and project the screens to a virtual distance from your eyeballs similar to a monitor.
You’ll still need your glasses, I’m afraid.
Can’t recommended DE enough, and for that price it’s a must buy.
