There are only giant pickups here due to our stupid laws and regulations. They can’t make tiny pickups because the restrictions say there has to be so much thickness in certain parts of the body, and to be allowed to have poor gas efficiency there has to be so much space in the cab, etc.

Too much to retype here but they were basically gloating about how they verbally “destroyed” people whose opinions they didn’t agree with, and patted themselves on the back for being a typical toxic reddit debatelord.

They removed the region-free aspect from switch 1?
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 details: Screen size, controllers, storage, microphone chat and games 3 weeks ago:
Well no, we are going from first to like… Seventh gen tegra, which comes with a whole slew of additional hardware support. They are likely going to be hitting 120fps using DLSS, which is both neat and really sad.
HDR and 1080p on the device’s screen itself are big improvements. A lot of people will bellyache about no OLED but LCD tech in general has gotten pretty good and will last 30+ years instead of 10-at-best.
Most of the external hardware changes seem superficial, but things like the dual USB C and the larger joysticks (which hopefully means they won’t drift) should be noticeable quality of life enhancements.

- Comment on Eight years later, new but familiar-looking PebbleOS watches appear 5 weeks ago:
The pinetime using infinitime basically does that, albeit without always on and the heart rate monitor only fires off when the screen wakes up or when you go into the applet and click start. But i usually get around 2 weeks of battery life with it, maybe more.
Its probably not as good, but on the plus side, it’s like a $25-35 watch before shipping.
- Comment on Is the moon too far for your data? IBM's Red Hat is teaming up with Axiom Space to send a data center into space 1 month ago:
It would depend on how critical the data is and if the cost benefit analysis breaks even or tips in favor of the moon. I would imagine housing state secrets up there would be reasonable, and documents (text files) don’t take up a huge amount of space. Video would be more challenging. But realistically you could probably store all of the Secret and Top Secret documents across a few servers with maybe 5 drives in a RAID config each. Probably even a single NAS-like solution.
- Comment on Is the moon too far for your data? IBM's Red Hat is teaming up with Axiom Space to send a data center into space 1 month ago:
No hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, or other types of disasters on the moon. Asteroids are rare enough now that they basically don’t count.
Latency is high but it doesnt matter for data redundancy.

- Comment on Discord in Early Talks With Bankers for Potential I.P.O. 1 month ago:
Its the closest thing I’ve found to the discord experience, but it still feels young (I.e. buggy and laggy, UI feels off in a few places). Other than that its almost 1:1

Its more of a chaos entity. Because anyone can be a part of it with literally no steps other than saying “I am Anonymous”, anyone can say or do anything. As a result, one person or group may claim Anonymous while doing a legitimate hack, while another person who is just a script kiddie won’t ever actually do anything and you get this hot and cold, will they won’t they effect as a result.
- Comment on Freed At Last From Patents, Does Anyone Still Care About MP3? 2 months ago:
I personally enjoy PNG image format for my compressed web images, but I’ll be damned if JPG isn’t “good enough” while also being magnitudes smaller, especially when I have to start embedding things as base64 encoded text in outlook and teams at work, or when I don’t want my screenshots folder at home taking 2TB of disk space (Spectacle can change image format).
- Comment on Freed At Last From Patents, Does Anyone Still Care About MP3? 2 months ago:
I would say its more like 60hz refresh vs 90. The difference isn’t super huge but when you notice it, you can’t un-notice it, so it’s almost better to stay ignorant to it.

Summarizing documents, writing documents you don’t want to (within reason), and… whatever the hell Neuro-sama is doing on Vedal’s channel, are like the only ones i’ve found so far that kind of work. And I guess image generation.
