People somehow still surprised by Switzerland being neutral on Naziism

I think it’s just really rich people, but tech CEOs are in this terminally online culture so not only does it all end up out there but they seem to feed off each other and try to bizarrely one up each other.

Love TNG and DS9, currently reading the Ringworld series

The hexagon is only stronger than a circle if you’re gridding it.

EDIT (stronger for the TOTAL material used)

He might, but he also might mean that he has a power meter that is displaying Kwh since last reset and he plugged it in and then checked it again later when it was all set up after an arbitrary time period and it was either showing the lowest non-zero value it was capable of displaying or was showing a number from several hours.

Lol thank you, I knew that I don’t know why I wrote it that way, in my defense it was like 4 in the morning.

You are misunderstanding the confusion, Kw/h is an absolute measurement of an amount of power, not a rate of power usage. It’s like being asked how fast your car can go and answering it can go 500 miles. 500 miles per hour? Per day? Per tank? It doesn’t make sense as an answer.

Does your computer use 100 watt hours per hour? Translating to an average of 100 watts power usage? Or 100 watt hours per day maybe meaning an average power use of about 4 watts? One of those is certainly more likely but both are possible depending on your application and load.

Phrasing?

I have a Wyze scale, it’s well made and easy to export the data via email automatically.

Yeah, cus they’re still trying to charge chip shortage/cryptominer prices for gaming graphics cards.

Isn’t this kind of the plot to the Rick and Morty dog episode but kinda flipped

That’s extraordinarily on brand of them

TWO slaps on the wrist.

33% seems high for “people who are apparently barely ever online”

Yeah, Adobe is the worst.

HDR support and Adobe support… All I really still need…

A country which doesn’t invest in its infrastructure while it’s wealthy will eventually find itself no longer wealthy and unable to afford to fix it.

Yeah, because Microsoft/ZeniMax/Bethesda is such a small corporation and Fallout/The Elder Scrolls is such an inconsequential, low budget franchise.

People have been saying this since Half Life 2, possibly even longer, then everyone said it about Crysis. To be fair, Cryengine has some validity as a future proof engine. It was first made in 2002, just 5 years after Gamebryo and is still being used in heavily modified forms by a large number of studios. But even that is showing its age and is getting heavily refactored yet again for the Open 3D Engine that the Linux foundation is working on. With that said, the amount of active development and intensive refactoring that the Cryengine has gone through at this point eclipses what has been done for the Gamebryo engine. But it still seems like lack of respect for tech debt is the larger problem than “just switch engines”
