I want them to launch a Deck v2, Controller v2, and a new take on the Steam Machine simultaneously with a goal of knocking Xbox out of the market and replacing them as the third console. A new Steam Machine right now would play all of Xbox’s exclusives on day one and some of Sony’s.

So you can send the robot back in time, obviously.

Nowadays I mostly think of it in regards to how much control you have over the hardware. If you can Ship of Theseus your way to a completely different machine with completely different specs, that’s a PC to me. If you’re stuck with what you paid for, then it’s something else. A Mac Mini is not a PC in my book, but a Hackintosh is even though it’s the same OS and general hardware architecture.

But that’s just how I use the term.

I’m running a 4090 on PCIe 3. Apparently I’m only losing about 5% off the potential frame rate, which is barely noticeable.

512 shared on the 360, 256 dedicated RAM and 256 dedicated VRAM on the PS3.

Do you know if Nvidia Surround works? I’ve been gaming with a tripple monitor setup and would really like to keep it.

Dare To Be Stupid

No problem. I was pretty disappointed when I learned all the sci-fi writers were getting it wrong. Though, to be fair, it really should be called something else.

The limit is c because you have to use cables, radio, or other traditional methods to send the key. The data in the entangled pair would also have to be set at the time the two devices are constructed, so that’s not super useful. It might be useful for single use authentication, but that’s about it.

Don’t think of entanglement as being like one object in two spots. Think of it like identical twins. One twin getting a hair cut does nothing to the other twin’s hair. Similarly, altering a property of one entangled particle does nothing to the other and actually means they are no longer entangled or identical.

Quantum entanglement communications also have fundamental problems that will likely render them effectively unusable. You need a key to decrypt anything you send, and the key has to travel no faster than c. It’s impossible to tell the data from the noise without the key. Attempting to read the data or to change the data being sent also collapses the effect, which can only be fixed by bringing the two systems together. In short, you can only send a single packet of data and you can’t use it without a key transmitted using traditional methods.

I actually like having lights on the keyboard. Mostly because I can find rarely used keys in the dark.

“I know it’s not your nude, but it’s a nude and that’s what you were looking for, right?”

I tried explaining to a nice elderly woman that the person texting her asking to buy Steam cards wasn’t actually Jason Momoa, but she couldn’t be convinced. Fortunately, the manager at that store forbid anyone from selling her any gift cards of any kind.

According to the video, game logic is still opperating at 20hz and the GPU uses frame interpolation to tripple the FPS.

Battle for Naboo actually had an official PC version all the way back in 2001. No idea if it works on modern PCs, though.

Vista was actually shockingly solid by the end. 7 on release was essentially just Vista Service Pack 3 with a new taskbar skin, because Vista was completely unmarketable by that point and nobody could be convinced to jump to Vista anymore.

I paid for 7 and upgraded it to 10. I may go to 12 later on (Windows alternates between solid and awful, so 12 may be fine) but it’s also quite likely I’ll wind up moving to a Linux distro as my primary and keeping Win10 as a fallback. No way in hell am I touching 11.
