Some Indy games using unreal engine can still bog down a fast PC…

Have not built a PC since Windows7, what is the difference between a 150 and a top of the line motherboard?

In web development it’s impossible to remember all functions, parameters, syntax and quirks for PHP, HTML, JavaScript, jQuery, vue.js, CSS and whatever else code exists in this legacy project. AI really helps when you can divide your tasks into smaller steps and functions and describe exactly what you need, and have a rough idea how the resulting code should work. If something looks funky I can ask to explain or use some other way to do the same thing.

Running windows 11 is already uncomfortable, but not for RAM reasons.

Bold to assume that this thing would still drive after the apocalypse, when you don’t have the fuel, tools, spare parts and access to the manufacturers service manuals for authorized repair shops.

Any sport injuries or faceplant that would have been a mild 2 day annoyance in your 20 is now a permanent damage you can still feel after 3 months or more.

Could you connect it to wifi, but then block the tv on your router from Internet access?

Why buy new space station when old one station still works? Why develop new shuttle, just strap 2 rockets to my uncle’s 1986 moskwitsch!

Why did they not just keep windows 10, change the background picture and icons and call it windows 11?

Netscape Navigator 4

Why should any Chinese build RAM end up in the hands of consumers, instead of Chinese data centers or AI server farms?

There is a conspiracy that the German organizers intentionally want to lose, because if they win they have to host the next Eurovision, which always runs at a great deficit.

Don’t need ai for that. Before AI, bots would simply copy top post from a year ago to farm up votes, and then sell the account to marketers.

They did exist before reddit as forums, however they where fragmented across different languages and websites. At some point Google started to show reddit more often, because it was more search engine optimized and mobile friendly. This means new users found reddit first, and old users where slowly pulled away from their forums into reddit.

An flashlight concentrates it’s light in a small cone, a projector must spread it over a larger area, while still being brighter than the ambient light if you want to use it as a projector. Take a guess why any good projectors cost more and use expensive hardware, instead of “hurr durr let’s just juse a 10 cents flashlight LED!1!!”

There are YouTube channels who review cheap temu tech, and some of them also did cheap projectors, with the expected results.

I think the problem with 2 folds is that you get a square screen, which sucks for most websites, videos and games optimized for 16:9 screens, either landscape or portrait.

If a projector is $99 it’s rubbish. And what kind of light source would fit into a cellphone that is bright enough to throw a picture from 2m away from the wall, possibly during day light hours, without eating the battery in 5 mins?

Mostly because he is a YouTube entertainer, and not necessarily an tech expert. He got some shitstorm a while ago because of the bad treatment of some of his staff, and other YouTubers called him out because his benchmarks where wrong multiple times, but he would never revisit and correct them. Some staff members said this was impossible for them to to accurate testing and reviews because of the high pressure to churn out new videos.

Personally I get the vibe that he is nice and entertaining in front of the camera, but might be a less chill person as your boss.

No, it was more a turn based game with npcs, and you had to extract people, kill targets, or return objects from the map. By strategically placing mines on windows or doors you could take out enemies, and remove cover for other enemies, or accidentally start a chain reaction that would blow up other barrels nearby.

The downside was that the game was terrible slow, with what feels like 5seconds per npc to make a turn (even when they where not revealed yet), which is annoying with sometimes 20 npcs per map, who can take sometimes multiple rounds to finish if you are unlucky and miss. And any explosion that would destroy the environment would also bring even modern PCs to a grinding halt. The game was from 2003, but only runs on a single core.

Well if they know that, why spend time and money on all the other consumer products only to drop them a few years later?
