Brodie thinks that they still let themselves some wiggle room for ““selling”” user data.

Dreamcast and the first Playstation.
For pure old school retro it would be the old Compaq suitcase-sized laptop PCs.

I know the movie, I saw it a long long time ago. I just didn’t catch that reference, didn’t remember that being said in that scene. Creepy scene btw.
Thanks!

- Comment on [Gamers Nexus] The RTX 50 Disaster 1 week ago:
AMD’s first party drivers are still garbage.
As I mentioned in my comment you replied to, I use Linux, and not Windows, so can’t speak (today) towards AMD’s Windows drivers.
For me, I let Linux worry about the drivers, so I don’t have to.
Best decision I’ve ever made, PC build wise. So nice to get away from NVidia and not worry about graphics drivers.

You’re not wrong (as someone who has owned both cards) but lets be honest here, two generations ago AMD had HOORIBLE drivers/support, like epic-level WTFness bad.
They had a hole they dug themselves into to dig out of, and I believe they have, and then some. But they are still battling that negative rep from that time. Some people still see them in that “hole”, flailing about, which is what I was initially pushing back against with the OP, to say that AMD is no longer in that hole.

Yep, agree! Would definately LOVE to buy an Intel GPU if they could get their drivers up to snuff.
I’ve watched a few Gamers Nexus videos where the Intel guys are interviewed and talk about their drivers work, good stuff.

Well I don’t game on Windows, so their Windows drivers could still suck. But I used to on my RX 6800 XT before switching to Linux, and I did not have driver problems with Windows at all.
My son had a 5X00 gen card, and he can’t wait to get away from AMD because of driver issues he’s having all the time, when playing LoL in Windows. I’m having a hard time convincing him to make his next card AMD because of that, even with all of the current Nvidia shenanigans going on. So, I do get where you’re coming from, drivers wise.
But all I can vouch for reliably is that my all AMD rig with a RX 6800 XT card works great, no driver issues/crashes. My biggest headache is sometimes having to select a different version of Proton for when I’m playing a game (thank god for protondb.com).

AMD seriously needs to start taking driver support seriously.
That’s been an issue for them in the past, but not recently. Last I heard, the quality of their drivers has improved allot from two generations ago.
I game on an all-AMD Linux (Fedora/KDE) rig, and I haven’t had one crash with any game that I play (via Steam/Proton).

I can’t wait for Intel to step up their game and for AMD to reengage. We really need the competition.

Yes it’ll be a long 3 years 11 months, but still, even the laziest people usually figure their shit out at some point and change their course appropriately, and vote differently.

Sorry for becoming a cynical asshole, it’s actually a good news but I can’t help myself these days.
Hope you’ll take this criticism as honestly given, and not meant as an attack, but you’re not improving the quality of Lemmy with these kind of posts.
May I suggest, instead of making a comment and apologizing for it in the same comment, you just don’t make the comment at all?
It really sucks having to push through these type of comments.

They’re good at introducing them, just not as good at passing them.
There’s room for a lot of politics between introducing and passing a law.

- Comment on Neuralink to implant 2nd human with brain chip as 85% of threads retract in 1st 9 months ago:
I think it will be impossible for us to asses how much it actually impacts function in real world use case.
Does seem fair though to say though that if you have 85% less input probes, that you’re losing some to a large amount of fidelity, than an algorithm can only make up so much for. At the end of the day, it’s a lack of data that was originally expected for the algorithm to work with.
A potentionally bad analogy, but think of it as a high bitrate versus a low bitrate, for listening to music. The quality of the music will be notably different, but you would still be able to hear both of the songs in their entirety.
