Please look into exactly how bad the people replacing John are:
 
Jim Whitehurst, the interim CEO, was the guy who decided it was a great idea to sell Red Hat to IBM & also the guy who oversaw the sale of Tumblr to Yahoo ... but in good news he was the guy who navigated Delta out of Bankruptcy. So while he lacks any form of experience with the video game industry, he is likely the perfect choice to guide Unity through the wonderful journey it is going to have next year.
 
Roelof Botha, the new permanent chairman of Unity's board, is the principal board member that that pushed Unity to spend $4.4 billion to buy IroinSource, the Advertisement delivery platform that was at the center of the the recent install fee blunder ... the same IronSource that has been repeatedly flagged by cybersecurity providers as malicious malware. He made his way onto Unity's board by being a senior partner at Sequoia Capital, an investment firm very well known for taking over companies that are popular with consumers, running them into the ground with drastic management changes and belligerent cash grabs, then offloading the brand name for a larger corporation to use like a sock puppet lovingly crafted from the taxidermied corpse of a beloved family pet.
 
Source: go to unity's home page, click on the "about us" link, then scroll down to the section that names all of unity's top level managers & board members ... then start plugging those names into google, it is like the VIP section of a "everything wrong with the world" convention.

was my gif avatar not clear enough to you? 😄 

This is worrying, but I doubt Google would do anything super drastic.
My guess is that 9to5Google are correct that they won't delete Youtube accounts that have videos uploaded, and I really hope that's true.
 
It's one thing to delete private data that isn't being accessed anymore, but it's another thing to delete public data that others access (but not necessarily the creator). The former is okay in my opinion, but the latter can do a lot of harm.
 
Since it seems like Google will take a staged and fairly reasonable approach to this (for example deleting accounts that were created but never even used) my guess is that they will not just mass purge Youtube videos.
I mean, if we are being reasonable, it doesn't make sense for Youtube to delete for example all videos from TotalBiscuit (youtuber who died in 2018) just because he hasn't logged in to his account. Those videos are still getting thousands of views ever day and as a result, are generating revenue for Youtube. 
 
My guess is that the biggest impact this will have is that we'll see people's subscriber numbers drop like a rock. MKBHD might have 16.8 million subscribers, but my guess is that a large chunk of those are inactive accounts that will get deleted.

Great, way to go Intel. Now you're gonna confuse non Techies and especially Techies even more with your utterly Stupid naming schemes. I really liked the "Core i" branding, imo it was legendary. Stop fixing things which actually work and you're better off investing that time into fixing things which are actually broken like your High End Chips which are a real Pain to cool.

Summary
 It took many years but PaperMC have cracked multi-threaded servers for Minecraft. Due to 99% of mods being single threaded, the server mod is still vanilla MC but the codebase is available on GitHub so expect some of the more popular mods to transition to multi-threaded server support.

My thoughts
 This is huge! I know there are only a few servers which would actually hit the required player counts to need multi-threading but to be able to host potentially thousands of players in a single world could, theoretically, introduce competition to Fortnite, Roblox and other large player world games and expand minecraft's use cases. There are already themepark and museum servers which will undoubtedly benefit from reducing their server costs with wasted threads idle.

this may be the dumbest reason i have seen for someone wanting to move away from apple.

How the frick did anyone think this is a good idea to link a cloud service with the access to the locally stored data?
How stupid is that?
Isn't that the whole point of having a NAS - not relying on an external factor such as google drive or other similar services?

Honestly, I think this is a smart move:
If someone's aiming for a bargain basement board, they're not buying a 7900X or higher, or at least shouldn't.
 
Most people buying the cheapest boards are going to buy much cheaper chips.  I don't see this as that big of a concern, as long as "What is supported" is clearly labeled. 

I guess moores law is quite literally dead now

When one of the maintainer of Babel mentions how it would take too much from even them to maintain it, I don't think it will be very easy to do...
 
I would recommend you read his side of the story before continuing. It is very touching as it expresses quite well the passion that pushes open source devs to continue in the face of angry users and thankless work. 99.99% of us devs would have called it quits a looooong time ago but it shows his love for his project.
 
To end on a good note, his bitcoin wallet received a 20k donation thanks to this situation going viral on programming forums and some senior programmers have sent him job recommendations at good companies.

if this works, the fact that it took Microsoft to be the one to make it is very funny to me.

Finally, a reason to use Windows 11.

OK, this is getting stupid, lol.

This is fearmongering,
Video games collecting telemetry data is nothing new, It happens with games from all over the world.
Whether it's from the USA, China, Japan, the EU, Russia or any other place in the world - It is a common widespread practice in the industry.
It's a populist fearmongering nonsense to act like when a Russian developer does this suddenly it's not OK just because of the War in Ukraine...
Also why punish the average Russian citizen for actions their government took?
 
The whole thing is a herd mentality nonsense.

American company collects a whack ton of data via their OS -> gets downplayed and dismissed.
Russian game dev  does it -> pitchforks and torches up in the air.

Yeah, definitely no double standard going on here.....

This reads incredibly biased. No technical information on where and what data is being sent.

Gaming on a HDD? What is this heresy?
I feel that if/when Intel (EDIT: Speeling) polishes up their drivers, they are going to be a serious GPU option. That they got this far on what is essentially their first outing in a well-established field, is mighty impressive.

My thoughts
Always a fan of open source, I'm extremely excited to hear this news. Hopefully this means that it'll work on Linux eventually too!

I think you're overestimating how much people actually care about this stuff outside of the weird OS fanboyism that exists in the fringe. 
 
Your average human will see it, feel a certain way for 0.5 seconds, and go about their life. 

This to me is a wait and see sort of thing.
 
As much as I dislike the way Apple operates, nothing of this screams of intentional.  This seems like they tried adjusting something, and maybe in situations it got worse.
 
e.g. Perhaps they were noticing the ANC was causing distortions or something similar so this was their attempt to fix it. There could be plenty of reasons why it was "nerfed"...who knows maybe they are going to allow for custom ANC profiles (and the new code has caused this).  Until there is a statement, or a plausible scenario of why it happened there isn't any point in holding up pitch-forks because really there are too many other things it could be.

The funny thing is that due to its open source nature one can fork ubuntu and call it noadubuntu or something silly.
 
Thats the fun thing about open source stuff. Make users too pissed and they might just make their own version from the point where you last left off and keep taking all the good improvements whilst removing the bad.

Texas-sized 10-4 on that, I'm saying it's laughable they're saying anybody would look at this and go "That's the Lenovo Legion logo" because nobody knows what the fuck the Lenovo Legion logo looks like. 

The world at large will continue to collectively give zero fucks about Lenovo Legion regardless.
