That's very lopsided in favor of the GPU - if VPX is more CPU intensive that the average video game you could probably swap the 7800 xt for something much cheaper and get the same performance.

I think the only way to fix that would be to darken the yellow to the point where it's not really perceived as yellow anymore though - more like a muddy mustard. edit: op originally specifically referred to yellow.

An AI company dogfooding their own marketing. It's almost admirable in a way.

Yeah Nix seems like an insanely useful concept (declarative, reproducable, diffable, source controllable definitions of linux environments). But actually using it is a nightmare. I think there's some point on the spectrum between &quot

As a New Zealander who's been to Australia + a small handful of other countries I can vouch for Australia having a uniquely good convenience store dairy based drink industry. OAK is another old faithful brand I miss in NZ. Also Hungry

I'm not really convinced more than a vanishingly small percentage of people who self identify as "free speech absolutists" are using that term in good faith. Freedom of speech is just the easiest way to have plausible deniabi

I'm not really sure what you're trying to say here. Paste like texture = ultra processed = bad?

His crusade against mechanically separated chicken made me lose all respect for him. It's just chicken, you're literally just making better use of the animal. It's not magically less healthy because you used a machine to ge

Dolphin and RPCS3 are also good examples of this. Less visually impressive than these, but definitely more than the norm, and packed with deep dives into the development of certain features.

I think you've misread the comment. They never called the "more corporate" era of 10-15 years ago the "early web", they were describing it as distinct from the even earlier "early web", which seems to be t

Almond milk has always tasted terrible to me. And most western produced soy milk. Warm, freshly pressed soy milk is amazing, and the kind of minimally processed bottled stuff you get from chinese grocery stores is pretty good too. Soy milk

I've found this approach super useful for anything that has a potentially complex implementation with relatively simple output (e.g. compilers, query generators, format converters). You can comprehensively cover your code with simple s

10% market share in any industry with an even slightly healthy level of competition is huge. The fact that people think it's not for tech feels like an indictment of the overall health of the industry to me.

21500 seems pretty cheap to me? Surely the most price conscious consumers would be looking at the second hand market instead anyway given how rapidly car value drops off once they're driven out of the lot.

Yeah I'm a little torn on this one. I generally think that much of IP law causes more harm than good, so in the abstract I'm in favor of copyright being weaker. But in this specific case, given the context of existing copyright la

1 and 10 are on the boundary, that's not random so those are out. 5 is exactly halfway, that's not random enough either, that's out. 2, 4, 6, 8 are even and even numbers are round and friendly and comfortable, those are out t

I agree. There's a lot of options for very small PC cases that will fit a dedicated GPU and regular itx components (I'm running a midori 5L system, it's great, don't ignore the instruction to use loctite on the bolts you

Idk about Kobo plus, the content available on it all seems to basically be the written equivalent of shovelware (unknown authors, questionable quality). I've almost never searched for a modern book I want to read and found it available

performance/mm2 This strikes me as not a particularly useful metric, or at least one only indirectly related to the stuff that actually matters. Performance/watt and performance/cost are the only metrics that really matter

I wonder how widespread the adoption of steam deck + clones has been amongst benchmark participants (very very good perf per watt, relatively middling absolute performance), that could explain a lot. Not sure where they would end up on the

There's a workaround for the 'pull request and required check' issue. You create an alternative 'no op' version of each required check workflow that just does nothing and exits with code 0 with the inverse of the tr

Sure I agree with that, but microservices are just one of many ways to modularize software/achieve separation of concerns. I assumed you were talking about team size specifically because that is the thing that a microservice architectu

By large scale do you mean large software or large amounts of developers? Because there's some absolutely massive software in terms of feature set, usefulness and even LoC (not that that is a useful measurement) etc out there made by v
