I wonder how they deal with flash storage degradation.
EDIT: Apparently the Switch uses something called XtraROM. See This for more info.
I’m just using it as a space heater for my study, which is also where I work from. While using the computer in Winter I just switch on f@h for both CPU and GPU (AMD 5700x and 6700xt), and this heats up the room. It’s a good 300-400W. I have home assistant telling me the temperature in the room and it bugs me to turn it off if it’s too hot. That’s my “temperature control”. I didn’t build anything, the computer is just under my desk and it heats up my room.
Originally my plan was to have F@H automatically turn on and off based on temperature, but it turns out the power is low enough and the lag is high enough that you switch it on in the morning, and then once the room is upto temperature you can just switch it off and the room will stay warm the rest of the day.
I do this. If you want to actually want to use or donate the processing power, this is kind of a good thing. However, there are a lot of downsides:
There were a bunch of game company closures in Australia in the 2000s and now there are a bunch of Australian indie devs, as an example. The cycle takes a long time though.
It’s so bite sized yet moreish.
I don’t think it’s a death, it’s more of a transition. Firstly, a lot of XBox games have been coming to PC, intentionally, because Microsoft basically own the market*. They’ve also created XCloud + Game pass, possibly the most convenient way to play games, and you don’t need an XBox.
The real people who’ve turned on the device itself has been devs. Some of the stuff they’ve been saying at GDC have been at the same level as the stuff they say about Linux as a target. Like your game shouldn’t be that dependent on platform, it hurts things like archival.
non-commercial file sharing is not piracy, the industry just re-defined it because they don’t want anyone to share stuff.
Step 1: which way is N/S and which hemisphere are you in?
Hello. The Verge is shit and manipulative in the way they framed this, but SBI is a beat up. It’s the usual gamers not really knowing how games are made.
I’ve got New Balance ones which are fairly cheap but have lasted me a good few years. Won’t last for life but definitely years.
I feel like this post has devolved into nomenclature. My intent was not to tut tut people for using the wrong word, it was to say that Civil Disobedience is actually quite powerful, and we can use it to enact change at the government level.
As someone else said, that’s “passive resistance” and it’s fine and good. Just being a pirate is fighting the good fight.
“Having sex with your bully’s mum is passive resistance; Having sex with your bully’s mum while looking your bully in the eye is civil disobedience”.
Civil disobedience is the active, professed refusal of a citizen to obey certain laws, demands, orders or commands of a government (or any other authority).
The “refusal” part is where you challenge the authorities.
The “professed” part is where you do it publically.
The “media attention” is the bit where you are not an idiot. If no one knows you went to jail, that’s just willfully breaking the law.
My friend, you seem to be too young to have gone to a leech-n-lan. Those were indeed the days… yarrr…
I think it’s the other way around. Civil Disobedience is a type of passive resistance, but I think we’re both saying the same thing here. You don’t just have to do civil obedience to have passive resistance, and other techniques are equally valid. The two even go well together.
For example if a small number of people do a civil disobedience, you can quietly seed as well, so even if they’re all jailed the seeding will continue.
+1. I was giving an example but you really need everyone involved to sit down and think through the way things are going to work. Every successful act of civil disobedience is thoroughly planned out.
+1, it’s fine to just share.
Also I guess a finer point: Non-commercial filesharing is not piracy, we just call it that (somewhat) ironically because this is how the industry wants to label us. Almost all the laws imply a profit being made.
6dof works via basalt (and there’s hand tracking as well I believe) but right now the experience is very Janky. eg if I put the headset down it gets confused and starts drifting heavily, forcing a restart. It used to crash sometimes on some types of motion as well. My WMR controllers aren’t being detected and 6dofing properly even though they should be. But the bones are there.
Here’s a video of Monado being used and doing the tracking.
Writers give publishers legitimacy. Publishers will regularly pull the writers out to trot out some “copyright is important” line.
