Same with the Steam Deck. I’ve actually been using an 18W charger as my travel one for ever since I got it, and as the highest power draw I’ve seen is 26 Watts (BG3 at Act 3 at full brightness), the difference is 8 Watts and the 40Wh LCD battery allows playing for over 5 hours straight before empty.
But most of the time you are playing something lighter, and it gets you enough life that you’d be able to play the entire day no problem, and have it charge back up during the night.

Caffeine be like:

One big change is going to be the “new” console generation. The PS4 has set the minimum target hardware for well over a decade, but the switch to focusing on the PS5 will mean that soon devs don’t have to keep targetting hardware from 2013 to make sure their game can run on it, which will result in quite a massive bump in the low end requirements for PC users.

1080 TI from 2017 is honestly way too close in performance against 30/40/50 generation xx60 TI cards.

I’m not sure if that makes the 1080 TI impressive, or mid-range of the last three generations rather pathetic.

The fertilizer is often shit. Chicken shit, to be exact, but others are used as well.

89 million eligible people didn’t vote, more than either candidate got votes. If you start from that, only 32% voted for Trump.

A good showcase of the AI Effect.

AT Machine. CP resuscitation. GP System. PC board. I Technology. AE Defibrillator. PI Number.

Better :) ?

You don’t use LLMs to look for cancer, you use purpose built image recognition AIs, and they do help as showcased in the MASAI trial.

Because people want to set the fridge temperature precisely to 6C, and not turn a century old tech of a mechanical thermostat located inside it to an arbitrary setting between “off” and “three”.

And if you want to be able to do that, an electronic switch is literally the only way: you now have a computer that is responsible of doing “if current_temp > set_temp then compressor = on”. When that computer stops working, so does the fridge.

Not an issue if that’s the only thing that computer does. Probably an issue if it’s complicated enough to support Xbox live streaming so you can play Doom on it.

Funny thing, here in Finland when we started allowing 17 year olds to get a license much easier, the accidents caused by 17 year olds skyrocketed! …And the accidents caused by 18 year olds and older reduced by roughly the same amount.

It’s kinda like the age isn’t really the issue, but maybe people who have just gotten a license aren’t actually experienced, good drivers yet?

Nigeria’s National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control is now enforcing a nationwide ban on alcohol in sachets and small plastic containers, which it said are easily accessible to children and young people.

Hopefully those sachets and small plastic containers weren’t used to sell proper alcohol at any point, because prohibition and restricting access is how you get more deaths from methanol poisoning, not fewer.

Inflation adjusted the index was $1300 at launch, so, they kinda did it. But if the Deck and Machine price hikes (45%) are anything to go by, the Frame was supposed to be something like $750.

I find it easy (when I’m not blocking literally every ad) because they are usually so fucking dumb - do you constantly get bombed by ads about stuff you’ve recently researched and purchased? If yes, personalization is on.

Yes, though this law specifically requires that users can “having their default feed … opt out of algorithmically ​recommended content and instead see posts only from the friends and creators they ⁠choose to follow.”.

Basically all platforms inject other posts in your feed somewhere either as “recommendations” or just paid ads, and very few default to your subscriptions when you open an app.

My doorbell is a sign that says “Knock”, because my 70’s doorbell is broken. It requires 0 cloud services to fix the problem of people pressing an unhelpful button.

[EDIT] To people downvoting this, did you read the article? Specifically, this part:

“Before we had the doorbell, people just knocked on the front door. But now, people would notice the doorbell and ring it instead. This would send a notification to our phones, and then it would also helpfully play a sound on the doorbell itself… outside the door… which we could not hear.”

He then goes on a tech bodgeathon to fix the button, instead of just placing a sing that says “Knock” to go back to the thing that worked before.

Ender 3v1 is like a project car. Terrible choice if you just want a reliable daily driver to print models with, but an excellent start if you want your hobby to be more about 3d printers itself, as you have to learn how to troubleshoot, fix, and improve it.

I learned enough to design and build my second printer mostly by myself.

Were they also trained on the vast quantity of media of gymnasts made out of pasta for them to be able to create videos of that?

One of the main points of GenAI is the ability to smush multiple concepts together. There are plenty of training data of children that are in swimwear, or just literally naked that has nothing to do with CP, and there’s boatloads naked adults and of course, porn, it can successfully combine them together even if there was no actual CP in there whatsoever.
