I picked the Ars article because they showed real-world performance like encoding. Geekbench scores are difficult to impossible to equate to real-world results. There are ways to measure it properly, but most sites seem to just do Geekbench

I think people generally expected larger improvements between iterations. Intel and AMD continue to deliver sizeable performance and efficiency gains every 1-2 years while it feels like the Apple M-series isn't getting comparable gains

This sounds like exactly what I'm looking for, it sounds and looks great. Unfortunately, don't own an iPhone. Any plans to make an Android version?

This is the case for every company, not just Google. I've been the one internally trying to stop us from making a bad decision which ended up being made anyway. I can't distance myself from that. For everybody outside, there'

Wow, that sucks. Etsy was one of the best places to get adult toys, especially more exotic ones, that didn't cost an arm and a leg. Not sure where to go instead.

Agree. Seems like great incentive for the next replacement manager to not turn a blind eye or be willfully ignorant like it's not their problem.

I don't disagree, but when I'm playing the campaign or custom maps, I'm not too worried about skill expression and micromanaging these brain-dead units is not all that fun.

That's not 100% true. The pathfinding is atrociously bad in SC1, which is usually attributed to how they took the WC engine and made it isometric, but I assume was partly also due to performance. Whenever I go back to play it, that&#x2

Damn. That reminds me, I really wish there were more information about the early days of ArenaNet. I think what they did with servers and networking in GW1 (and eventually GW2) is legendary. They had instancing, no realm sharding, streaming

That's the point, no? Ukraine isn't NATO. Ukraine can't do NATO doctrine. So Ukraine also can't win against Russia if they're this behind on artillery supply. This is an issue for Ukraine. It's not for NATO.

Tbh, I prefer the Teams (new) and Teams (classic) naming. It's infinitely better than the naming they were doing before, which is they were named the exact same in the menu, but were entirely different versions.
