If you want a 2.5" form factor and plan on moving it in any sort of way, SSD is the way to go.

I bet this is for compression for mobile networks. Saw those pictures on a phone screen and they looked fine. Plus, webcams just look like shit. Even if your Pixel 8 Pro is compressed as fuck, it’s still gonna look better than most people’s webcam.
Huawei keeps on winning
Y’all are ignoring what this actually is - an app for EVERY video platform. Also, restrictive license is fine as long as the source code is available. Rossman explains this is to keep people from just forking and making scam versions of the app like NewPipe sees.
I mean they do have Android drivers for Exynos now, but if normal devs are still working around snapdragon the effects will still be felt. For all the pull Samsung has, Snapdragon has a much bigger market share.
They do, but there are still plenty of old people who like Coldplay
Pretty much all Android drivers are for snapdragon. Not just using a snapdragon is pretty much asking for a bad time.
Surprised by Khalid on here, kinda thought he was irrelevant at this point
I’ve had my 6t for 5 years at this point and had no idea this existed
Yeah, however I think this is one of those things that should be a stock feature. Most people who use webcams aren’t tech people and want a plug and play experience. It isn’t particularly hard to implement and helps Android stay competitive with Apple’s user experience.
Lol this is funny. I wouldn’t really call it much of a war, it’s Apple holding back easily implemented features to cater to elitism. Would platforms like WhatsApp have taken over so heavily if basic texting was actually good enough?
Seeing all these star trek posts makes me think I should watch star trek. I really like animation so I wanna check out lower decks but it seems like it’s too baked into everything else star trek and I wouldn’t get it. What do you guys think?
I’d be more critical if Roblox didn’t require ID verification for 18+ accounts. Think it’s fucking hilarious that Roblox dating would already be doing more than most dating apps lol.
Moto 360 and Pebble Watch are still sick af today
Yeah, I don’t think this will be as good as we want. The amount of technical debt I’d expect in these big programs would be off the charts. It would take a full team of people just to feed in corrections, and they would need to both know COBOL and be willing to kill all the COBOL jobs to do it. It’s a tough ask
I’m still optimistic though because it’s IBM and converting between languages is a billion dollar question. I don’t think IBM would do a truly irresponsible deployment of such big corporate changes. I’d expect IBM to do a LOT of testing before sending anything out that would actually change the world, such as banking software. But in could be wrong.
I don’t think the LLM is gonna do that great of a job with it for this reason, but still worth giving a shot. ChatGPT is a well trained coding chimp. You realistically could get a well trained chimp to start off a lot of projects and have people finish it. The fact that it can correct itself after you explain how it’s wrong is very powerful as well.
LLM isn’t gonna be useful for converting a single program from COBOL to Java, it is gonna be useful for converting many programs from COBOL to Java. I bet IBM is trying this on their own shit first before they try to sell it to customers, because language conversion software would be a HUGE but very boom based money.
This is what in thinking. Even the few people I know IRL that know COBOL from their starting days say it’s a giant pain in the ass as a language. It’s not like it’s really gonna cost all that much time to do compared to paying labor to rewrite it from the base, even if they don’t end up using it. Sure, correcting bad code can take a lot of time to do manually. But important code being in COBOL is a ticking time bomb, they gotta do something.
Yeah but we’re talking 2.5 inch drives, and we’re talking about less than a terabyte of storage. There is no good reason to pick a physical drive HDD over an SSD when they’re practically the same price at that storage level. SSDs are simply safer to move, there are no moving parts, dropping an SSD isn’t that concerning, dropping an HDD can easily kill it. I mean think of this this way. There IS a physical reader that goes across the entire disk. That doesn’t exist in an SSD. It’s hard to do, but you can realistically take a hard drive and just SHAKE it to death with your hand, make the reader fall out of place. While shaking a solid state is more like just shaking a giant flash drive.
