That’s what happens on mine if I undervolt the APU too much. If you haven’t touched those settings, it’s possible you lost the silicon lottery, and the only fix is an RMA.

But 8GB on iOS is like having at least 32GB on Android don’t you know!

So not as cheap as the (inflation adjusted) PS2 ($550) or PS4 ($540), but cheaper than the $780 of the PS3. PS1 was close at $620.
Also games back in 1995 were around $50, which is $103 today.

One technical reason for why FSR 1 isn’t very good but works in everything is that FSR1 is the only one that just takes your current frame and upscales it, all the newer ones are all temporal - like TAA - and use data from multiple previous frames.
Very simplified, they “jiggle” the camera each frame to a different position so that they can gather extra data to use, but that requires being implemented in the game engine directly.

Yup.
The previous family share was gathering your library of games with the “console” in a single box and giving that entire to your friend. If you want to play anything, you need the box back.
Steam Families is now a common bookshelf, grab a game if it’s there and play.

Now we just need a way to use that shelf with the same account so I don’t get booted from my steam deck games just because I left something running on my PC and vice versa.

And at rather ridiculously fast paces, as demonstrated by comparing the different versions of Midjourney
The difference in being able to generate realistic humans is even more striking.

The question is where do the current LLMs fit in that kind of a timeline.

Hanasaari shut down last year and Salmisaari is going to be closed by april next year, after that Helsinki will have no coal or pellet power plants left.

Electricity generation isn’t the main problem, but that those plants were responsible for a huge majority of central heating in Helsinki (iirc they were designed on purpose to be so inefficient they generated 2/3rds of their output as heat for that use). That’s why they are building wacky solutions like huge underground lakes and stuff

Just use the bus, it comes twice in the morning so you are either an hour early or hour late from work, and leaves half an hour before your day ends and then once more at midnight.
Convenient!

E-paper is the category for any display that looks kinda like paper. E-ink is a specific technology (by a specific company, yes,) that uses blobs suspended in oil in small capsules that are controlled by magnetic fields.

Pebble uses a Sharp memory LCD, which as the name suggests, is a liquid crystal display. If you categorize pebbles as a “eink watches”, then a gameboy is one low-power memory chip away from being an eink handheld gaming console, the display tech is otherwise identical - a transflective lcd.

Which one do you prefer?
And don’t say Pebble, that’s an e-paper (sharp memoryLCD), not an eink. I personally haven’t really encountered any actual eink watches that would seem any good.

I would assume the small amount of training data written that way doesn’t contain that many professional research papers, corporate emails or calm poetry, but would consist mostly of social media posts and comments which have a rather heavy bias towards aggressive and negative.

They are. GTX 590 from 2011 has a TDP of 375W. RTX 4080 has 320W, while offering over ten times better performance. 4060 outperforms the 1060, 2060 and 3060 while having a lower TDP than any of them.

If you want low TDP, the RX 6400 is twice as powerful as the 590 while having a TDP of 53W.

It’s the very top of the line stuff like 4090 that push the limit by achieving that very last 10% performance bump at the cost of using double the power, and that’s kinda like complaining a Bugatti Veyron gets terrible highway MPG figures.

Agreed. My PC case came with a blue power light, after one night of watching the blinking illuminate my entire room I ripped it out and swapped in a dim red one myself.

For a quick fix, you can make blue power LEDs slightly more tolerable by sticking a piece of yellow post-it note on top of them, it turns them white.

Specs are the same, the APU is just now 6nm instead of 7nm which is more efficient and lets it run a few degrees cooler and therefore boost a bit higher without overheating, and the RAM bandwidth went from 88Gb/s to 102Gb/s.

Consensus seems to be somewhere between 5-10% better fps, which means a game that ran at 50 fps might go up to 55, or one that ran at 28 might finally hit 30.

Lemmy at least has an account option to hide posts made by bot accounts if you don’t want to see them.

Yes, but then it would be slightly heavier and have way too good of a battery life, reducing power bank sales and having the phone last longer without needing to be replaced due to battery degradation.

Depends on the game. There is no functionality in Steam for buffering them offline, it’s just that some games run the check for all achievements every time you load a save or gain a new achievement, while others only do it for the one you just gained.

That’s why I have “complete 40 substories” in Yakuza 4, but not the one for finishing 20 of them - it triggers when you complete the 20th, and never again.
Meanwhile I imported a complete save to a different game for mod dev debugging purposes, and it unlocked every single achievement the game had the moment I loaded that.

This got rarer later on, once they realised the could fill the discs with FMV sequences instead.

Speaking of PS1 games and disk-filling FMVs: Final Fantasy 7 on the PSX comes on 3 disks but the actual game itself is duplicated on all of them and you can swap them out during gameplay, and the only thing that happens is that it plays the wrong FMVs.

It all breaks down to the actual “game” taking 133MB, plus few hundred for the uncompressed pre-rendered backgrounds, out of the available ~1.8GB (according to this old post about how a Nintendo DS port could easily fit on a 256MB flash cart.)

In this case, the question was rhetorical - the original release of BG1 takes 5 CDs, and the sixth is the Tales of the Sword Coast expansion. Installed the game takes around 2.8GB IIRC. They did eventually re-release it as only a 3 CD set because they could cram more data on a single CD by then.

I wonder what the other disks were all for then.
