“If everyone could see it”
Proceeds to show an alternate future where having seen it is apparently a status symbol, which implies that not everyone is able to see it
I guess the artist just wanted to make a “haha rich people bad” joke, but surely there are other ways to make the same joke without completely ignoring the hypothetical scenario you described literally one panel before?
this is 4chan
You need a Microsoft account to sign in to the launcher, download the game and play online, but if you already have the game installed you can launch it and play singleplayer without an internet connection.
The longer I look at this the more uncertain I am whether or not this is AI.
The fingers look weirdly long, but all of the text is actually written and oriented correctly, but the shading across the surface of all the cards seems to change brightness randomly, …
We aren’t focusing on the thousands of people dying from malaria or the common flu either. Once something is routine it is no longer “news”.
How is Samba supposed to be a replacement for the entirety of Windows Server???
Debian-based distros (and probably most othera as well) actually have a package called “intel-microcode” which gets updated fairly regularly.
I search for stuff in qBittorrent and download it directly onto my home server using the web UI. I’ve got most of my family’s devices set up to be able to access it either via an NFS or SMB mount, and then it’s just a simple matter of opening the corresponding video in VLC.
My new laptop doesn’t support S3 sleep, it can drain the battery from 100% to 0% in less than 16 hours while supposedly “sleeping”.
I believe it would be the amount of electrical energy consumed relative to the total amount of energy consumed nationwide. I would assume that e.g. energy generated by a coal power plant would count, but the energy produced by a gas-fired water heater would not (since the burning gas is heating the water directly and the energy is never converted to electricity).
You don’t have to dig up the roads to fix buried power lines any more than you have to tear up your walls to replace power lines in your house: you install a conduit (basically a pipe) under the road once and if the cable somehow gets damaged and needs to be replaced you can just run new cable through the existing conduit by simply pushing it in on one end and pulling from the other.
Transformers and other non-cable equipment are typically housed aboveground in little boxes or built in to the house, so they’re actually easier to maintain than if they were installed aboveground on a pole since you don’t need a cherrypicker to access it.
Obviously in a less wealthy small town with existing overhead infrastructure it doesn’t make much sense to move it all underground “just because”, but if you’re already trenching under the road to install water/sewage/gas mains, it won’t cost much extra to throw down an additional one or two smaller conduits for running power cables or telephone/cable/fiber lines.
Additionally, the existence of an out transgender person elected to Congress implies the existence of an out transgender person not elected to Congress.
Couldn’t that just as easily be solved with a database of illnesses which can be filtered by symptoms?
GeForce GT 610.
It was the cheapest GPU available at the time, imagine my disappointment when I tried to run Minecraft with shaders and barely got more than a slideshow.
That’s not going to go away by switching to AMD or some ARM implementation, they all have their own equivalent. Maybe if you’re running some fully libre open-source RISC-V chip, but those are currently nowhere near capable of competing on the big stage for anything other than embedded/hobbyist stuff.
Traditional graphics code works by having the CPU generate a sequence of commands which are packed together and sent to the GPU to run. This extension let’s you write code which runs on the GPU to generate commands, and then execute those same commands on the GPU without involving the CPU at all.
This is a super powerful feature which makes it possible to do things which simply weren’t feasible in the traditional model. Vulkan improved on OpenGL by allowing people to build command buffers on multiple threads, and also re-use existing command buffers, but GPU pipelines are getting so wide that scenes containing many objects with different render settings are bottlenecked by the rate at which the CPU can prepare commands, not by GPU throughput. Letting the GPU generate its own commands means you can leverage the GPU’s massive parallelism for the entire render process, and can also make render state changes much cheaper.
(For anyone familiar, this is basically a more fleshed out version of NVIDIA’s proprietary NV_command_list extension for OpenGL, except that it’s in Vulkan and standardized across all GPU drivers)
Only if the old software happens to have drivers compatible with the new hardware, which it almost certainly doesn’t.
You can also be arbitrarily deemed “unfit for service” and forced to pay a pretty expensive compensation fee for the next several years, even if you would have preferred to have done the months of military or year of civil service instead.
