You don’t have to play the multiplayer? The games already made it’s not like they would skimp the single-player to focus on the multi-player mode.

However, this decline seems to be due to the previous fiscal period being exceptionally good for FromSoftware, as it started shortly after the release of the company’s global hit Elden Ring

Kind of a nothing-burger.

Everyone’s hating but honestly fair enough move.

On the whole, nobody uses Bing or takes it seriously anyways and so I guess they have to find their niche. It’s certainly not aimed at us (Lemmy/Fediverse users) who are generally more privacy conscious. If it can attract some mainstream users (e.g., Google users, people like your parents, etc) or stop some users from immediately switching their search engine to Google, then it might be a good decision for them.

Bing providing the exact same service as Google but worse clearly wasn’t working for them.

Certainly not limited to IT. One of my professors from many years was an aerospace engineer¹. He recounts to us the time that he busted his ass on some design for a long time and managed to make some huge cost savings. And then after it was done he realized that all he really did with his extra hard work was help some executives and stockholders get a bit richer. Not long after that he switched to education.

I agree very disappointing. I find it increasingly difficult since Twitter closed its doors to those signed in as my account is long deleted.

Nice news. Money only starts flowing in 2 years though and then it takes many many years for stuff to get built on top of that. Wish we could pick the pace up on these issues.

Great read. Even in STEM research as a grad student I’m very tired of every saying “let’s try machine learning on this problem” to get something that works marginally better than some conventional models but requiring huge amounts of computation and data.

Some people think they are good for brain development. I’ve met some parents who gave their young kids a few pills every day hoping it’ll help make them smarter.

Hope to see it on GOG. But maybe not since there is multiplayer.

But AMD would rather sell two cards at 1000 each than take the bet of trying to sell four at 750.

At the same time though this might not be unreasonable. I don’t know what the profit margin on these cards is given the R&D, manufacturing costs, and other various overheads, but it might be WAY more worth it to sell two at 1000 then four at 750. Might even be worth it to sell one at 1000 vs four at 750 depending on how slim it is after all those costs.

Sadly I’ve been at this thread and done this already, did not work :(

People think it’s just due to the trackpads being crap (and somehow Windows gets around it). I’ll probably never need to buy another laptop, but if I do I will probably not buy a Dell again regardless of how much I love every other aspect of this laptop.

Still sad because my Precision 5560 (same as XPS 9510) has this floaty trackpad bug on Ubuntu and Pop OS for whatever reason! (I haven’t tried any other distro). Much easier for me to swap to Linux on my laptop than my desktop because my laptop is just for Python, LaTeX, and MATLAB.

Dell even sells a 5560 with Ubuntu preinstalled, but they don’t make it available for users. But I have not for the life of me been able to get the track-pad bug to go away.

There are users that complain about it from over a year ago. Maybe it’s a slow rollout, or some game of cat-and-mouse where my ublock isn’t updating for some reason.

But I can still search from the browser search bar and I get results. It’s when trying to edit my search that I get problems.

Qwant is a privacy-focused search engine that puts your needs first while protecting your personal data. By blocking trackers and advertisements, Qwant helps your search results remain unbiased and comprehensive. Just like Firefox, they are committed to protecting your privacy and preserving the decentralized nature of the web, where people have control over their online experiences.

Except starting this week, Qwant has started blocking me for using an adblocker. I’ve had to block Javascript to get around it.

Yeah probably something like that. During the conservative debates Aitchinson seemed very reasonable but whenever I see media reporting on him now, he seems less so.

Yup came to comment this. The number is certainly more than half. Second line:

More than two in five (43%) of Canadians say they know very little or nothing about the topic, reports TECHNATION.

This is just self-reported.

Last time I tried to play on Dolphin it was quite buggy. Luckily I still have my copy though so I play it, but that isn’t the case for all. But perhaps it runs better on PCSX2.

For me personally it doesn’t make a huge difference, the bar to greatly increase my willingness to pay starts at DRM free (i.e., being on GOG). But perhaps for others this will matter a lot more (especially people with children)!

Wow this is huge. I’ve been wanting this for years.

It seems like a not great deal for developers who will want to sell multiple copies to the same house though. We’ll see how many disable the feature.
