Windows 11 24H2 goes from “unsupported” to “unbootable” on some older CPUs
Vode replied to DuckDodgers's topic in Tech News
Right. How many people were upset Windows XP didn‘t run on their 80486DX -
Probably less than you think since food supply was largely from local sources. If the reaction came from more exotic foods fair to assume they made the connection. Also many individuals with more serious reactions to common foods possibly falling ill and dying at very young age.

Basically art is about respect for skill or resources (time). We humans are wired to appreciate effort in that way. Wearing a $20k Rolex shows you have enough resources you‘re able to waste some of it on a watch. It takes effort aquiring one. Wearing a $50 fake doesn‘t. Creating art is similar, it‘s an enormous time sink usually to master a skill and this is a huge part of why good art is valuable on a subjective level. If it takes little effort on the part of the person who is clicking a button and it‘s actually hard to distinguish between human and AI ceeated art it devalues the whole idea. It disincentivizes putting actual effort in. People catch up to that and art in general will be valued less. Just basic signalling theory. The signal must be hard to produce (wasteful to a degree) to be perceived as real or valuable. It‘s understandable for artist to try and protect their craft.

GTA6 trailer hacker sentenced to life in hospital prison

Well intelligence and exhibiting desired socially accepted behavioural patterns aren‘t the same thing. Agree it‘s severe considering only 5M dollars in claimed damage with no proof whatsoever. -
Pornhub deleted like half of all videos on their site couple years back. All unverified content (aka reuploads from other often paid sites) got culled.

I still don‘t understand why it’s totally fine to let kids play/watch games where sticking a knife in somebody‘s neck leads to a medal popping up, yet people flip their shit when a female nipple is on screen. As with most content it should be parents responsible…

Yeah Maxwell was the gen where color compression really started have a serious effect. They improved upon it with Pascal.

This is basically an advert and appeal to use Protonmail.

Leak shows AMD "Ryzen C7" SoC for smartphones with impressive specs
Vode replied to Clueless_Gamer's topic in Tech News
I don't think we have the capabilties to assess, data or ability to decide what other may or may not need. The market usually decides that. We enthusiasts are a fraction of people. On the tech aspect. I think I agree with you although bleeding edge tech often seems to be useless and/or wasteful at first. But without making the first step progress is hampered. Innovation, selection and creative destruction feeds progress. -

Be real. The majority of gamers is on mobile now. -
Nobody needs that shit, relatively speaking. Go ask people on the street they'll give you weird looks.

This doesn't change anything. If you filter out blue light and don't turn up the brightness you'll end up with a lower brightness overall. To not have an effect using a blue light filter you'd have to turn up brightness to compensate. If his study is accurate and found the truth basically a blue light filter should stilll help, but not for the reason you thought. It's not blue light specifically but overall brightness level.

Why, if I type in "Half Life Alyx" in Duckduckgo, are the majority of pictures fanfiction nudes? WTF! Lol -
Why don‘t you guys use Duckduckgo again?

It's a joke. If you're offended by such inconsequential stuff in your life you are gonna have a hard time in the real world and waste your time with bullshit rather than focusing on the really important stuff. Too many snowflakes in our world today, not enough pragmatists and realists. I can understand women talking about this topic and raising the alarm, but not men.
