I usually go around 7 to 10 years before building a new machine with usually one GPU upgrade in-between.

I’ll keep the computer going until the frame rate on a modern game hits less than 40 on a game I actually want to play which may be longer now since I’m not exactly clamoring to play the next AAA game.

People who haven’t gotten raises to keep up with cost of living are buying cheaper indie games that are fun and supported instead of 80 AAA games that are abandoned because they didn’t make all of the money.

Gee, shocker.

Same but you would have had to have known that there was backlash.

I personally think that these types of headlines are fine. Yes the headline is provocative with the wording but honestly they have to be a bit because if they don’t then they don’t get anyone to view their story. No views, no money and the whole cow, milk, and giving it away for free comes into play.

Click the damn link and give the journalist a some ad revenue because these guys also need to earn a living while most of us commenting, at least in this side of the world, we’re also making a living while having the luxury to read gaming news during work hours too and honestly, I don’t see anyone that’s complaining about the headline stepping up to the plate and providing any of their own original content and descriptive headlines that give you the whole story.

Oh good lord, what a bunch of freaking snowflakes. Last time I attended a outdoor concert and it rained, I went into the pit and mud and had a blast with no mental regrets.

Such alpha that I’ve come to expect from Texans and Republicans.

Pathetic.

I guess I’m old enough to remember that there were a plethora of joysticks and game pads during the 80’s and 90’s that were designed for PC. So many options for PC back in the day.

That all changed and dried up after Doom came on the scene and M+K and the precision that it gave became the norm and there was no real need for PC gamepads and the market for that dried up plus with console controllers moving to work with PC’s there was really no need for something PC specific since for most games, M+K is still better suited or at least more than serviceable so the PC controller market is niche still at best.

Copper has already skyrocketed due to AI.

Look, if a guy at the Verge can use Linux then that means almost anyone can.

It really highlights the fragility and single source/control of the global supply chain.

It was a very different time back in the 90’s.

ETA, the other print ad:

Probably more like the subprime mortgage era.

Got instructions or a site to point to on setting something like that up?

1. Microcontroller complexity that affects repair.
2. Mixing at a variable speed isn’t important to most home cooks.
3. Bull crap with led lighting.

Thanks but no thanks. I’ll stick to my now two decades old kitchen aid that I’ve repaired a few times now without any issue.

That’s pretty dang cool. Just hope that Xbox and Rockstar don’t pull a Sega and call the cops on this guy for buying it and releasing what they found.

I also do hope that he donates the dev kit, intact, to the gaming preservation museum so this kind of stuff can be reserved for history.

I mean not a fan of epic but damn that sucks for the developers that the leadership had let things stagnate until massive layoffs had to happen.

Daniel Owen’s interview with the Nvidia’s Jacob Freeman which is where the analysis of this article is even more illuminating:

Yup, that underlying geometry is unchanged, that nose was always that deformed and big.

Considering that DLSS and DLAA are, and I would image that the FSR equivalents are too, separate processes so they could drop DLSS and just concentrate on DLAA. But that’s not where the money and ray tracing is, and part of that is also on gamers in general since there’s always such a focus on FPS, something that even I’m guilty of, and not visual quality.

Right now I’m just getting discourse to run via docker compose. I have that up and running finally and got to the splash screen locally but of course it needs a domain so I’m working on that route while my reverse proxy is throwing a fit.

I haven’t gotten to the plugin yet but just reading up on the git documentation it sounded like running it in a docker compose isn’t officially supported so I was just posting to see if maybe someone had has some experience and could offer up some pointers before I bang my head against a wall this weekend.

That’s actually a pretty interesting point, especially since it was recently that the SC declined to hear another case challenging that original ruling.
