In a professional setting, about 5 years. Just various office work, nothing to intense. In personal life, currently 17 years. Lenovo T400 still rocking on. Beyond SOME web browsing there just isn't anything yet that…
I see that MS is trying to force anti cheat stuff out of lower level OS rings. They may unintentionally allow future compatibility with Linux compatibility layers. That is a funny situation.
I do not play multiplayer games, and it has come to the point where I don't even check Proton compatibility on these because it is so reliable now in that situation.
I have often said that for many people that want to change the world (for the greater negative), they need to get addicted to Sim games. They will end up doing a lot less harm in that situation. The real question is,…
Maybe that is the lesson. No matter how much we wish to progress, we just have to accept the stasis of the world. There will always be more to do.
I never thought of mixing that with local radio. That sounds wonderful.
It hits that mid point between complexity and simplicity. You can kind of chill out but without the process becoming too mundane.
Pretty much, but no complaints there.
I have said it for a few years now. If Epic ever decided to go public on the stock market, I would throw a significant amount of my savings at them. Their technology is astounding. Yes, some games have some issues but…
I assume Chip Maker was accidentally called 'Cheap maker', but it still holds. Seeing as most RAM is around the 10-12nm node, this is an area that can become a big commodity item. Depending on what you read, China's…
This is but another example of how for some people and larger societies, they simply cannot accept death as a part of life. And yet, because it is transient is what gives life its quality. If you like mice, and let them…
I just upgraded from a Lenovo T400 to a Carbon X1 4th gen for $100. I can ride out this storm longer than the storm can continue. My needs are much lower than what the market demands.
You could give it a similar structure to CPU cache or a giant swap file. Have a giant blob of memory on the PCI RAM, that feeds the on board smaller motherboard RAM as needed. It might just work.
Side note. It is sort of the unwritten rule in TV and Film. Don't highlight technology unless absolutely necessary. it can age it considerably. A few weeks back I had '30 Rock' on, it was funny seeing everyone with flip…
In a way I already knew it to be the case, I always built machines with an excess of RAM since hitting a memory limit and falling back to HDD would crush all performance. But once I got on SSD, it was the big game…
Yesterday I had to setup a rig for a massive down load that was larger than any spare SSD I had laying around, so I got a 2TB HDD out of an old PVR and turned it into the main drive for an old Optiplex I have. I had…
It is a funny thing, while yes the task of 'put pixel on screen' is the same. They are so wildly different in how they function, I don't know how to even quantify it. 15,000x may be an understatement.
Yeah based on a ROM leak from a while back. The game was almost entirely complete before they moved over to the GameCube.
It was last night, after seeing Linux on the Atari Jaguar, I was just pondering over that whole scene. Then I decided to throw on Metal Slug X, a classic of the Neo Geo. Then it struck me, "Could I attempt porting this…
That makes sense. Give those under the leader enough rope to hang themselves but only when needed.
I see it as being sort of like how every 6 months someone is made an example of by the media and they need their retribution. It is a means of keeping people at ease and that the narrative of the system works, 'the bad…
It is sort of hard to describe but I would say specifically the animation system. Everything has weight and flows spectacularly. They used a combination of key framed animations and procedural to have limbs conform to…
Yep... gets a little less funny every year as it comes closer to reality.
Thus the yearly Call of duty titles.
It was once the Wii with anemic hardware and waggle ended up outselling the 360 that MS changed. They went from pushing forwards to chasing trends. I agree, they need to be focusing on smaller projects that take risks.…
