Damn. One of the greatest. RIP.

6·12 days agoPlease avoid linking to this channel and avoid it if you can, as:
- This is just a reupload of what Capcom have put out
- This channel’s whole focus is uploading spoilers and putting character deaths right in the thumbnail as soon as a game is released. That’s the whole schtick.
- He’s a chud: https://www.theguardian.com/games/2018/nov/07/red-dead-redemption-2-game-criticised-over-killing-of-suffragette
I like the snow.
You can also just click the snowflake icon in the top-right corner.
If you run a search from a user page who’s hidden their profile it shows all their posts/comments.
Default subs are occupied by reddit, so that makes sense. It’s on the front of /r/ps5 (8m subscribers) and /r/games (3.4m subscribers) at the moment at least.
Grok can now run for public office.
This is what Apple Pay already does for off-device transactions. You scan a QR code and complete the transaction on your phone.
Thanks for the explainer but nothing you’ve said contradicts my statement or really matters. Yes you’ll end up with stray blocks but it’s the difference between fetching the whole thing vs an extra hundred megabytes so the difference is moot for the average user.
This is fair game considering Spotify started with a pirated music collection. Anna should just start an AI company and call this training data.
Any torrent client released in the past two decades can prioritise blocks by file path in the torrent, assuming these are all loose files organised by album or whatever then it’s easy to pick just the stuff you want.
Don’t worry, it is (for now?).
I’ve just been issued a 15” M4 Air 16GB for work (up from a 14” M1 Air 8GB). Doesn’t choke or slow down with anything I throw at it. Much lighter than my personal 15” M1 Max Pro too so it’s easy to relocate during the day.
Even if OpenAI collapses tomorrow supply chains won’t recover for at least 18 months and there’s nothing stopping them from keeping prices as they are (see Covid).
We’re in an interesting place right now with respect to appliance vs build your own (e.g Mac vs PC) supply chains, but it won’t last forever so if you’re on the fence now is the right time to buy before appliance makers exhaust their lines and need to repurchase/renegotiate.
Data duplication as an optimisation only really makes sense for optical media where you have exact control over where data is pressed or burned to a disc. For example Halo games where each map file contains basically the whole game and level geometry/scenario in a compiled format minus the bits not needed for that particular level so it’s easy for the DVD drive to sequentially load all data for a given level.
In the context of hard drives where you can’t control that layout for various reasons it’s just a meme parroted by devs who don’t bother with or can’t implement a PC-oriented asset loading pipeline (e.g. pre-caching lists, centralised shared assets, virtual file systems/pack formats) and instead kick storage costs down to end users because disk sizes are so large nowadays and it’s easy to just statically bundle assets that might share aspects across each other e.g materials, shaders. Of course siloed development teams makes it very tempting to ship games this way, as does pressure from management so I do sympathise.
File duplication on a hard drive saves a few seconds in the best case scenario with a defragmented disk and even that is margin of error because guess what the OS and filesystem will do whatever the fuck it likes in a random access scenario.
