People forgot that it took almost 2,000 years to get this right back. We had it in the Roman Republic even though flawed. And now… If it’s gone, it’s gone.

I remember a time when international law still was worth a damn. Now it seems every time someone finds an international law inconvenient, it gets ignored.

IMO: GMOs are sus. Fuck the rest though.

Also, before announcing their streaming platform, they disabled the feature where you can stream from your real PC. It was called nvidia Gamestream and has been revived by the “Sunshine” and"Moonlight" projects. It works great, even over the internet. Only adding 7-10ms with a wired connection. I’ve used it myself for years.

So without the Sunlight and Moonlight projects they would have succeeded in killing the superior technology which would have competed with the one you have to pay monthly for.

I have an idea: what if we try appeasement, but this time we appease harder? I’ll ask De Weaver for some ideas!

Oh dear. At least where I’m from, the conservatives are still moderates. Why do so many conservatives become extremists?

Orban and Putin are extremists, as they seek to destroy democracy. I never understood how people fail to recognise this. An “opinion” that wants to destroy democracy itself is not an opinion, it’s a danger. And that’s the reason why extremists must be excluded from the democratic process because you can’t have an “opinion” that wants to destroy all other opinions and place itself on top in a democratic system. Democracy only works if all parties agree on democracy.

Please stop calling american right wing extremists “conservatives”. European/real conservatives are a moderate and pro-democracy ideology and even though I disagree with their view points, they deserve better than to be bunched in with neo-Nazi extremists.

We kind of got that one. Half life alyx released before Star Citizen and it’s somewhat a continuation of the story.

Corpo translation: “Taxpayer, subsidise me!”

Haha. No.

It does not work that way. AMD is mostly in the customised hardware business (PlayStation, Steamdeck, etc.) and they are just selling knockoff products in the GPU space because they just make some money on the side. You may hate Nvidia for the VRAM gimping, trash drivers, bad vision for computer graphics, but at least they have a clear and vision, even if that vision is blurry, temporally smeared graphics. Nvidia is actually doing something smart. It basically tells developers “you can save time and money with our stuff” and once everyone uses it, people are forced to buy their GPUs, because everything exclusively runs on CUDA, this happened in the productivity and machine learning spaces. Intel and AMD just follow said vision with the machine learning infestation of computer generated graphics. AMD’s bets were failures in the past. Intel cannot afford risks right now. So no wonder they’re now just doing whatever Nvidia does minus 100€. That’s the problem with computing. Good luck competing with them. That’s also why EU companies like Infineon or STMicroelectronics, NXP Semiconductors just don’t. Because while they have deep pockets, not that deep to force themselves into it. Maybe once the bubble pops and Nvidia goes the way of IBM, maybe then. One can hope.

He also murdered his passenger. At this point, zero sympathy. As a driver, you’re responsible for the safety of everyone on board. Speeding is a choice.

Jake Paul forgot that he can only challenge senior citizens.

Hot take: Publishers do fuck all. Everyone can have their own book printed, and most of the repsonsibility for advertising goes towards the author anyway. So what does the publisher do then?

I have no technological problem with Rust. I have a problem with the people behind it. Soydevs recoding GPL projects and relicensing them as pushover licenses for their corpo-thugs they desperately wish were their friends.

I only need two: “Kill yourself.”

Edit: I just read the part with the Grok chatbot. That’s what I get for skimming.

Think about it. Many of them have enough money to end world hunger, build affordable housing, give healthcare to a poor country, etc. But they choose not to. All evil is an active choice.
