Just to be clear… you think that the thing they’ve been actively doing for years, without any indication that there’s any motivation to change, is why they’re changing policy? 🤔 let’s just say I’m not convinced

I certainly don’t have my phone number associated with my Google account. Maybe grandfathered in, though?

I definitely think it’s optimistic to assume pro cornhole was his primary income, but maybe? 🤷‍♂️

That solves maybe a single problem associated with AI. Energy and water use is still massive, nobody’s job prospects are improved in any way, the brain drain still happens, and creativity still goes to die in a corner.

They didn’t prevent anything, they just said no and then the thing didn’t happen because they said no and for literally no other reason. But it wasn’t Nintendo’s fault!

They prevented Dolphin from getting on steam (for free) a few years ago, so I certainly wouldn’t say “never.”

Right, because that’s everything stopped them in the past. If you can’t afford a multi-year long legal battle against some of the best lawyers in the world, it doesn’t really matter if you’re right or not, because you can’t even play the game.

Honestly, I missed him being removed in January.

The wheels on the bus go thump, thump, thump

How is “upscaling while preserving it” not the exact same philosophy as “enhance by applying a filter?”

You just don’t like the specific filter, it’s very literally the same process.

Wasn’t the Mirror’s Edge sequel prequel also open-world? That game failed pretty spectacularly, so how is this different? I see mention of upgrades, but the article really doesn’t go into much depth at all

I work at a full MacBook shop and literally nobody uses xcode 🤷‍♂️ weird reason to be against it

Why would they need to listen? That’s a lot of processing power

But… why would they care? It’s your energy bill, not theirs.

It definitely totally happens every single day but nobody ever manages to get a piece of hard evidence.

Are you just lazy and in denial? There is traffic sent from both Alexa and Google Home every time it detects something that it considers speech, regardless of whether the wake word was detected. This is not debatable, set up your own tests.

In the “optimal packing” scenario, it’s slightly too small - like 4.95x4.95

his government wouldn’t allow the U.S. to use jointly operated bases in southern Spain in any strikes not covered by the U.N. charter.

This is very specific language. Are they allowed to use non-jointly-operated bases? Are the strikes potentially covered by the UN Charter?

Hard to tell when we’re playing word games and not, these days.

Meh, Edge is no worse than Chrome at this point (because it’s chromium now)… Which is still mediocre, but it’s not horrible

Hard sell after Super Meat Boy Forever… I’ll be waiting for reviews, for sure

I bounced off when he described “the one piece nobody had thought of” for the third time without actually saying which piece. Fucking keep-watching-bait bullshit

Your boss is starting to get scared, huh

The guy is a piece of shit, sure, but how does the fucking FBI only have access to two planes?
