it doesn’t allow changes to stuff that needs root access to change. If you have root access you can do anything, including switching images. It is not more secure. It’s not less either

yes but if you’re trying to calculate the mass of a pea, but you execute the computation that calculates the radius of the sun, you get the wrong answer. You can’t substitute any mathematical expbession for any other. I know you’re trolling at this point, since nobody could possibly be this obtuse. But I felt generous, and felt like feeding you one last time. Because, by your own logic, if you can’t execute any possible calculation, then you also must not be able to calculate how to get food to your mouth. They’re both just electrical signals running around neurons right?

how very technical of you!

one computes the scene, the other literally tries to guess it.

one calculates what the pixel’s color should be. That’s the actual color that that pixel should be. The real one.

The other one doesn’t try to calculate it and makes an educated guess. That by definition is “not rendering the pixel”.

It has nothing to do with how realistic it looks. And yes, having written both software raytracers and rasterizers, I am technical about this stuff a bit more than just calling vulkan and having it do its magic. I actually dived in all the way

they could use that power to actuall render the game. Not fake it.

yeah… no.

anyone could have told them that. real time path tracing is a pipe dream, even now. The actual raytracing output is a very noisy, incomplete image. Halving the noise requires 4x the compute. We won’t get realtime raytracing anytime this decade for sure, if ever.

more frames, with higher latency!

The complete opposite of the point of wanting higher framerate!

validate against what? The “inner monologue” is the llm itself. It won’t be any better than itself.

even if they get the words wrong, but the timestamps right, it’d still save a lot of time

this is just horrible advice

it’s the second language that comes to mind when I think of the word “footgun”, right after old c++

all json is valid yaml and can be parsed with a yaml parser. Yaml is literally a superset of json. In what world are they not comparable?

I’m not talking about drivers for stuff that is not the cpu itself. But the processor itself usually contains a bunch of peripherals that need their own stuff.

one of the most popular languages, used in one of the most popular game engines, has no learning resources?

Press X to doubt

Quite bad actually, since most of this stuff is not specific to c#, and are just basic programming concepts. This leads me to believe that your python experience is “coby and paste stuff in until it looks like it works”, and you never took the time to understand what the code does.

it’s very possible to get linux to run on a processor without having implemented al functionality. You can just not support some onboard peripherals yet and have to do some things inefficiently in software. You don’t need good power management to simply be “running”, etc.

Getting linux to run is the first step, not the last. It’s the barest minimum you could do to have a product to sell. Running well, taking advantage of all hardware features properly is a whole different game.

do they come with all the necessary drivers? Or are they hoping they magically appear in the linux kernel after they’ve sold a bunch?

nah, this is just copium. Apple don’t release dev-kits to the general public. It was a real product, and it was a dud
