At least on the Steam Deck, the touchpads are pretty effective as a mouse replacement in games. You wouldn’t play soulslikes with touchpads instead of joysticks, but RTS or 4X games gain a lot from having them.
They also make typing way better compared to selecting letters with a joystick.
They used a napkin, not an actual towel. The French word for napkin is serviette, which is also the word for towel.
Well ortolan was typically eaten with a napkin covering one’s head, to hide one’s shame from God for eating it.
They didn’t say it’s meaningless, just suggested that failing every quest leads to some type of conclusion to the game’s plot. It might not be a good conclusion, but the story ends.
To me, this just sounds like failing a quest doesn’t mean the game is over or that you need to reload a previous checkpoint or save to keep playing.
Lobbying on its own is not the issue. Nurses’ lobbies and teachers’ lobbies, for example, work for a good cause.
The issue is that lobbying is done in private, and citizens don’t hear about anything until laws are proposed, by which time they already have momentum and are very hard to fight. And once laws are enacted, it’s even harder to reverse them.
Lobbyists are people working on behalf of companies whose job is to meet up with politicians to discuss their issues. Typically that involves some back and forth that may or may not be considered bribery.
You want a law to protect your business? You go talk to lawmakers behind closed doors about how some laws are needed to better protect children and also data centers, and subtly let them know that maybe your company might have a job for them in the future.
Those lawmakers then go out and propose these laws and they sell the idea to other lawmakers who approve them for the children and datacenters.
A 386 is probably underpowered, but a 486 could do it for sure. I used to play all the SNES games at 33mHz back in the day.
SNES emulators ran just fine on <100 mHz CPUs three decades ago. You’d have to try pretty hard to find a PC that couldn’t do that nowadays.
Sounds like an issue on your end, not on DP’s end. You can 100% just plug in a DP cable into a powered-on computer and have it work instantly.
They didn’t start the service, they bought it with the long term plan of making it profitable.
I don’t think he knows anything about it at all except that it’s made for the poors.
There are so many layers of separation between the CEO of a company like McDonald’s and where their ingredients come from.
And also how he talked about the product not as a food item but as a product, like there waa some abstraction between the fact that it can be eaten and the purpose of selling it.
It’s like they told him seconds before that it was edible, and he didn’t believe it buy kinda played along by taking a tiny bite.
You mean the second graphics card you’ll need.
I think it’s a fair comparison.
“Hey gamers, look what your GPU can do!” winking at the film/tv execs
I don’t think it’s really aimed at gamers though. It’s a tech demo for what their hardware can do. They say that it was run on a dedicated 5090 which means that to get the same result, you have to be running the game on a 5090 and have a second 5090 just for DLSS5.
This isn’t meant for consumers. It’s aimed at sectors of the market that want realtime gen AI processing of realtime footage, whether 3D generated or live action.
I think they’re purposely taking the backlash from the gaming community, which they obviously don’t care about anymore, to showcase the tech to a different market.
TempleOS would fall under the laws
So would DOS and Windows 95, but those haven’t had any updates in a couple years. Surely they’ll be updated to comply.
Yes, anything on the battlefield counts as a permanent.
I mean if you have a doubling amount of them, you need enough that you can lose 7 per turn and still recover. So you need at least 7 to begin with, and you could block forever.
The real flaw with the comic is that Emrakul has flying, so squirrels can’t block it anyway, unless you give them all flying.
Really though, it’s meant to be a game-winning card. It does so much that it’s very hard to survive and recover if it’s on the board.
When it attacks, the defending player has to sacrifice X permanents, in Emrakul’s case that’s 6.
Probably not 15 turns, what with Annihilator 6 quickly wiping out the board.
