In the 2000s we had AdSense. So now we’re getting… AISense?

This reminds me of this Cyanide and Happiness short: https://youtube.com/watch?v=W09ltuxt3rI

This would be a meme by itself:

But for a moment I was like wow, 100FPS in software rendering

Thank you, that exactly was my point.

Because the title is still vague, and yes GPU and “graphics card” are often used interchangeably by the internet (examples: https://www.hp.com/gb-en/shop/tech-takes/integrated-vs-dedicated-graphics-cards and https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/help/connectivity-and-performance/article/switching-to-your-pcs-dedicated-gpu/000081045 ).

“New CPU hits 132fps” could wrongly suggest software rendering, which is very different (see for example https://www.gamedeveloper.com/game-platforms/rad-launches-pixomatic----new-software-renderer ) and died more than a decade ago.

A bit misleading, what is meant is that no dedicated GPU is being used. The integrated GPU in the APU is still a GPU. But yes, AMD’s recent APUs are amazing for folks who don’t want to spend too much to get a reasonable gaming setup.

just nostalgia

Surely mostly nostalgia. But I do remember feeling a sense of accomplishment whenever I managed to run a game and get the sound working 😅

Not gonna lie, part of me wants to relive the SoundBlaster and DOS extenders era and watch stuff with QuickTime. Tinkering with config.sys and autoexec.bat was quite fun back then.

Joke’s on them, I only use Arch (btw)

They can have my tabs over my dead body

Probably regedit.exe

Malicious compliance

Also add some honey and let butterflies land on it 🦋

If the 1.44MB DS/HD floppies are too modern for your gear, 720MB DS/DD media is also available (for a premium).

they probably meant 720KB there

Cabada was injured when part of a Raptor V2 engine broke away during pressure testing at the SpaceX facility in Hawthorne, California. The part, a fuel-controller assembly cover, careened into the SpaceX technician’s head, fracturing his skull.

[…]

The sources told Reuters that senior managers at the Hawthorne site were repeatedly warned about the dangers of rushing the engine’s development, along with inadequate training of staff and testing of components. The part that failed and struck the worker had a flaw that was discovered, but not fixed, before the testing, employees said.

Doesn’t look good at all for SpaceX

Didn’t we all see this coming? Porn deepfakes were already a thing, and even before generative AI we already had people photoshop women in explicit situations.

I’d even say that right now we have much better tools to deal with the fakes than before AI, and all that is required is legislative action.

The tech is already capable of doing automatic facial recognition at scale and we could give victims the tools to automatically send take-down notices and have them enforced.

Everyone should just move to the EU at this rate

Gonna fire the first bullet:

(I also use Arch btw)

I feel like it depends. Stealing is morally wrong no matter what. But I’d probably act as if I saw nothing if someone just stole a sandwich or similar. I’m not sure I’ll act the same if I see a teenage girl of a family that is obviously very well off steal things like makeup (that one literally bragged about it in front of her parents during a dinner where I was invited).
