They removed the region-free aspect from switch 1?
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 details: Screen size, controllers, storage, microphone chat and games 5 days 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 2 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 4 weeks 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 4 weeks 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. 4 weeks 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

Yes, a lot of websites embed Google Analytics, or more nefariously Google Fonts.
- Comment on Anonymous: Trump is making America weaker and we’ll exploit it - News Cafe 1 month ago:
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? 1 month 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? 1 month 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.

That definitely is true, we do tolerate a lot of rough edges out of ethics and principals.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 5 months ago:
Interestingly, the Linux foundation had to remove several Russian maintainers recently because of the sanctions.
I have not looked into the details on the matter, but from what I gleaned it seems like they did not want to (don’t punish the individual for the sins of their government), but were made to. Linus Torvalds apparently made a statement on the matter that I still need to go read.
I could be very very wrong on this and am open to being educated.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 5 months ago:
A lot of people grew up in a time where the desire for anonymity on the internet was praised and respected, reading usernames unless you had a specific reason to do so was considered strange.
I know I at the very least have to force myself to look at them if it’s something that needs doing, as I am conditioned specifically to ignore them.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 5 months ago:
My post you are replying to is absolutely aggressive and was 100% intended to be at the time. I am calmer now though.
The original post was not written with any aggression in mind. Could you expand on how it sounded that way? I didn’t feel any aggression until they started namecalling and making unfactual claims.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 5 months ago:
I actually hand-typed it, thank you very much.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 5 months ago:
I listed a bunch of things that have been said by the community in the past, and pointed out that he made a statemen that fell into that larger bucket.
So, i would be willing to concede that I lumped him in with the greater whole. But: I did not start with the aggressive namecalling.
