Aren’t the eyes teeeechnically part of the brain?

What happened exactly?

Oh don’t get me wrong! I also only learned about water toxicity when I was very much an adult.

But the difference between us and the type of person I’m talking about, is that we (I’m presuming on your part) don’t think fluoride in water is a bad thing.

The kind of person who hears “the government adds CHEMICAL_NAME to water” and assumes that’s a bad thing is the kind of person who will not believe drinking too much water can kill you, even (or especially) if they are told by an expert.

KDE, because it’s familiar yet customisable. Gnome is just too strange for me, and doesn’t seem to allow me to un-strange it.

I’ve been told it caches that data for areas you have been. But that doesn’t make it offline friendly, obviously.

Also what you’re suggesting is more dev work to make it not a live service with the associated benefits for the publisher, so they’re not gonna do that. :(

I have a friend who plays, and they suggested that maybe putting it right onto gamepass – allowing Johnbro McFuck to download it, get lost in a cloud, crash into the ocean and never play again – during the launch window might not have been a great idea.

The people who need to hear this sadly would not believe that too much water can kill you even if you showed them someone die from it, I fear. I’d also be shocked if they read “water poisoning” and didn’t think of poisoned water.

Not ready for PSN requirement on DS1…

There’s good reasons to oppose the ban. At least until someone explains how they plan to implement it without having every website, game and service with a chat box require you to hand over proof of your full legal name and address.

I feel like Samsung works better for Crusader. RSI would be the early gen android with the trackball. :P (RSI is my favourite manufacturer, btw)

Good point. And sounds like you’re in a similar headspace to.me on the topic. Personally I’m not a huge fan of live service games, but I can see why a lot of people would want to avoid killing them.

Not saying you’re wrong, but how can the source code be “open” and not publicly accessible? If it’s not, that’s just a closed codebase that is shared with some external people, surely?

If they let it cook this time it could be good… human kissing aside.

More thinking of the ios app store in this case. But they’re also ripping off the osx dock, IMO. :P

I’ve not booted into windows for a few weeks now. It’s been pretty smooth sailing, one horrifically unoptimised game aside.

It’s not about security. Not anymore, anyway. Maybe when Authenticode was first added to windows. Now they just want to scare users into getting everything through their store, because they’re perennially jealous of the shit Apple can get away with.

A laudable goal. Can they pull it off, tho?

As with intel, I would recommend not really paying attention to the 3, 5, 7, 9 numbers. Those are just marketing vague indicators; ideally of performance, but realistically just of cost.

Instead, look at the actual model numbers and seek out benchmarks performed by groups you trust with workloads similar to what you might actually do with them. E.g. If you are a gamer, look for comparisons between CPUs as to how they perform in various games. Linus Tech Tips do videos about recent CPU releases and compare how they do vs the competition in a bunch of games, and it shouldn’t be hard to find websites with the same kind of comparisons.

But also, yes, they are due to release a 9900x3D and 9950x3D early next year, supposedly. I am keen to see if the 9950x3D is symmetrical this time around; the 7950x3D was asymmetrical so I avoided it.

I don’t have VR so I haven’t played that one.

Oooo! Thanks! That’s way more interesting.
