Yeah pulling nearly 600w through a connector designed for 600w maximum just seems like a terrible idea. Where’s the margin for error?

The 30 day pause was for Canada and Mexico. The Chiba tariffs are already implemented.

Elite - BBC Micro Model B originally.

I meant a diminishing number of PC players without RT.

The PC with RT + console market is increasing. The PC without RT market is only decreasing.

The reason the new Doom and Indiana Jones games require a card with ray tracing is a consequence of the consoles all having ray tracing and an increasing number of PC users do too.

So to support a diminishing number of PC players would require the game to be lit twice, one with RT and one with traditional methods. Obviously this costs more in development and testing and studios are increasingly deciding it’s just not worth it.

It’s got to be the biggest dividing line we’ve seen in years. I suspect things will settle down for a while, now.

Fab!

I’d never heard of this brand before. Had a look at their website, wow what a pile of ugly looking crap for many x a reasonable price. The designers must be laughing the asses off coming up with this junk knowing people will buy it because of the brand.

Yeah I think Tudor, Rolex’s ‘value’ brand makes much nicer looking watches that I’d actually wear.

Less weight. I’m still on a 13 mini. One of the things putting me off a larger phone is that they’re all so heavy. I don’t want a larger screen either, but I might end up compromising with this.

If you want a really simple way to run a variety of local models with a nice UI take a look at https://jan.ai/

Yeah. ByteDance, the owners, are choosing to block US users to kick up the maximum fuss possible. From my understanding they didn’t need to, they just risked withering away because there would be no new users.

This Some More News episode is well worth a watch. “Nazi sympathiser Elon Musk’s Hitler problem”

And Balatro. A game by one dev, making many folks GOTY.

I’ve never understood that about America. How can you leave the dealership without a license plate. In the UK if you don’t have a plate you’re not on the road.

Probably more likely to be related to the Sora release or any of the other stuff they’ve announced this week.

It’s the same trivial belittling as making RFK Jr be photographed eating a Big Mac.

It’s a conversation starter when you see another leftie in the field.

Yeah which ports are folks actually missing here? Looking at various ports.

Magsafe: This has returned on the new machines. I like it for the green / orange charge indicator. RJ-45: Ok I kinda of get it, but it’s such a tall port. Personally I’d prefer a thinner laptop in this instance. Mini DVI: long dead. Replaced with HDMI. The MacBook pro’s have HDMI FireWire: long dead USB A: Replaced with USB-C. Ok one A port here would still be useful. Headphone / Mic: Still there, just as a combo port on the other side. SD card reader: The MacBook Pros have this. Mini Display port: Long dead. Replaced with DP over USB C

In short if you want HDMI and SD card reader and are anti dongle you get a MBP which has both.

Either way now have ports that can push insane bandwidth and route USB, PCI, HDMI and DP over the same cable which is incredibly versatile.

Yup. Investors have convinced themselves that this time AI development is going to grow exponentially. The breathless fantasies they’ve concocted for themselves require it. They’re going to be disappointed.

I doubt they’ll ever come to Europe. They don’t meet even the most basic crash safety standards. These things are designed to annihilate pedestrians, not to try to reduce harm.
