When compute gets cheap as shit, or when AI models are so important that they have to be trained and hosted securely and privately. It's an imaginable world, but not likely.

*cries in five nines*

Undervolting, wattage throttling, ECO mode.

I might have to give Brave a serious try as a daily driver. I have so much Microsoft stuff, I actually like having it all tied into an MS account, especially considering how often I reformat or switch machines. But this is pretty cool.

This AMD rollercoaster. Wasn't it down premarket?

The RIP of not ripping:

Yo I just gotta squeeze like 5 more years out of this 'being good at computers' thing so I can retire before the bots figure out how to break prod all by themselves.

There are at least 6 people from India on my team of cloud architects and they all do nothing because my manager can't find a single use for them. They bring in no revenue, submit no opportunities, write no docs, work no tickets, draw no Visios, and I bet half of them don't even know anything...

"Maybe they should’ve granted waivers for ALL the non studio productions, keep people working and halt ALL studio productions if they really wanted to make a difference and reach a faster agreement…"

This is 100% true. And most tech companies laid no one off during COVID for a bunch of reasons. A lot of this is just annual churn catching up. Tech companies used to be all stack-ranked where 5% or 10% of people got fired every year for being the lowest person on their teams. But again...

lol if you think that's actually what happens inside a real company. None of the decisionmakers ever get fired, only shuffled around. The people who get cut are just the ones who actually have to do the work.

I mean, it made sense for Astarion.

I've found your problem with the writing. It's coming from inside the house. jk, I also hate the writing for half the characters in this game. Or maybe they're written well TO BE ANNOYING.

What could actually be happening is that all of these companies want to get acquired. Firing people to cook the books is what companies who want to get acquired do. "Look how low our headcount is vs revenue!?!?!"

Very corporate companies DO layoff before the holidays, because it cuts down on annual bonuses and all the annual HR paperwork for open enrollment. Consider also that most of these people would have been paid to do nothing for 6 weeks due to change freezes and other technical stuff.

https://www.destructoid.com/bungie-lays-off-staff-and-delays-destiny-2-the-final-shape-and-marathon/ I don't really understand why the game industry is doing this? They seem plenty profitable? This can only hurt them and will create more competition. < Five-person teams can still change the...

Fuck.

I can't believe any of you grown dudes watch cartoons lol.

He definitely can be.

It's @Chris what did you expect?

what's funny is that Kurt looks the most normal by a lot. Then you know who showed up and he turned into this:

Kinda cool. Different at least. Good to see some actual advanced tech 20 years in the future.

Sure, but that doesn't change the content of the article.

Hah, yeah, that's how it read to me too. I wasn't gonna say it, but thanks. I wonder if DHL paid for that psyop.

https://news.yahoo.com/millions-content-creators-official-records-212932624.html This is a good article that might explain a lot about labor numbers.

The first game ultimately broke down into a traffic simulator at 'endgame.' Nearly every other system aside from the trivial water management became bottlenecked by traffic at high population densities. The only way to grow was to come up with increasingly effective ways to deal with traffic...

I have. I have already stated that I am planning on the next 10 years to be a very rich-get-richer, sideways economy with little disruption, so I'm comfortable with my portfolio being bloated to the top. The massive disruption of the past 15 years appears to be dead, due to lack of 'free...

Yeah I'm stupid and didn't get the transfer done in time to buy another 10k. Oh well, I'm pretty sure the market will still be sucking on Monday I'm going to be buying 10k JEPI, 15K SPY, 15K OEF. Or maybe shift those numbers around a bit. And then I'll be purchasing >9k more JEPI for my ROTH...

Sorry to bump but holy shit this made me fucking die. ☠️

So 3x better than Cyberpunk released in? After Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky I'm totally okay just waiting for games to get good.

Actually, she's not complaining about her job, specifically says she likes her job actually. She's complaining about the lack of available housing near her job that necessitates a 1.5 hour commute by train in each direction, which honestly seems pretty fair. I'll never commute more than 20...

Yeah, I came here to post exactly this. I had the story bookmarked on my phone. Like why do they even open their mouths? I bet they have toes too. <bigp>This is all feet degenerates' fault somehow.</bigp>

The article sucks anyway. But it's not paywalled for me. I do love the name of these companies though: "The Treasury sanctions last week included financial penalties on a digital currency exchange based in Gaza, Buy Cash Money and Money Transfer Company, which provided bitcoin and other...

lol called it

Shit I came here to post this.

Yeah, that's the same as the Dell one. I will always pick AW over ASUS given the same specs, Dell warranty support is solid and the build quality is usually a bit less clunky. ASUS branding is just... ugh. That reminds me, I need to dump my PG279QM.

The Samsung OLED G8 34" Ultrawide and the LG C3 42" are the only two high-end monitors I feel are worth getting right now. Alienware is coming out with a 4K QD-OLED 32" soon though. https://tftcentral.co.uk/news/dell-announce-new-alienware-27-1440p-360hz-and-32-4k-240hz-qd-oled-gaming-monitors...

If only this could have been predicted.

Selling low, always good. It's not your fault humans have logical faults.
