Disney has had access to it, there were a lot of Fortnite Avengers promotions. It obviously worked well enough for them to want to invest.

What's your deployment model? I've had it deployed on Kubernetes for 100 users since June 2019 and it's been painless. We upgrade every month, it's usually just a helm upgrade gitlab/gitlab -f values.yaml Once a yea

I think it's this. Apple is actively pulling 27% cut for web purchases nonsense after the Fortnite ruling. If I were an app developer, I wouldn't support an untested platform managed by a hostile entity like Apple. If Apple wants

About $40 per unit in profit, compared to about $600 per unit for the iPhone. I'd probably feel differently if Apple clearly had to make it's margins through software.

It's important to mention that consoles are typically sold at-cost or at a loss, so the markup is required to maintain the business model. This is not true of iPhones.

If we're discussing the current situation, where ChatGPT is outputting entire articles of NYT copyrighted content, then it certainly matches say, Bittersweet Symphony containing a small sample of a Rolling Stones song resulting in the

Yeah and that's copyright infringement. That's why if you're reverse engineering something it needs to be done in a clean room environment, your prior exposure to the copywritten material poisons the well for any derivative y

AI doesn't get inspired. It's not human. It adds everything about it to its endless stream of levers to pull, and if you pull the right ones, it will just give you the source verbatim as proven by the NYT lawsuit filing where it w

It's a neat idea but I'm not sure what the audience is. "It's simpler", but you still need to manage a bunch of integrations from a computer? It can't seem to make phone calls? I just want something that I can

Anti-cheat. Shooters use a variety of kernel-mode anti-cheats that mostly work pretty well, and those require Windows. Developers are hesitant to support userspace Linux anticheats since they're not as effective. The Counter-Strike com

SteamOS isn't yet available for non-Valve handhelds, mostly because that means Valve would need to support a variety of hardware. They've stated they're trying to make it more broadly available now that the OLED has shipped.

I don't think you can fault your distro because Nvidia in general is a mess. Here's how it works: * Kernel -> Nvidia shim -> nvidia binary driver * You upgrade, you get a new kernel, the shim needs to be recompiled (ideally

If you're using an Nvidia card, that's the likely culprit.

The Valorant community is incredibly in favor of the Vangard anti-cheat that loads as an early kernel mode driver, and the pro/pro-am Counter-Strike scene plays on FACEIT because they have a strong Kernel-based anticheat. VAC, and serv

1) I haven't used these, but I assume newer releases will be native to Wayland. 2) This is because you need to make an API call to the compositor to capture the screen. This is a one-time change unless you're using a very old appl

Because Nvidia, until recently, refused to use the driver model (GBM) that everyone else adopted because they wanted to force everyone to use EGLStreams, which was their choice of API.

With Firefox being in single digit marketshare, the fight is already over. It's hard to justify developing for or testing against Firefox unless you want to appeal to the similarly small Linux desktop crowd.

It's speculation on the part of the buyer. Why introduce more anxiety when you can just go with what you already know? If every gas station supported CCS it would be less of an issue, but usually you need to find a station nearby and w

I liked the D&D movie, though it definitely felt budget with some awful CG at times. For some reason, call it mid-pandemic boredom, my wife and I saw Hasbro's GI Joe film "Snake Eyes" in theaters. That was pretty awful.
