Maybe in a near future you’ll once again be able to upgrade your laptop RAM whenever you want. The current trend is for RAM to more and more be soldered onto the motherboard which prevents you from upgrading it.

Well what I’m saying is there should be more “less full” VR games. VR could be a somewhat simple add-on to many types of games. The difficult thing with VR is the object interaction, the handling of resources etc. if you’re in a large 1:1 world, but if you’re implement VR as basically just an extra viewport it’s not that difficult (for many types of games that are not FPS) and it could still add a lot to the game. Or you can do something like Moss, which is a really cool game.

Personally I’m surprised that there are so few non-full-body-movement games. It’s amazing to sit down and play whatever game in a completely different 3D world. Moss is a great platformer in VR, pinball games are really cool in VR, and driving sims with a wheel and pedals kick absolut ass in VR. I bet games like FIFA, NBA, NHL etc would be amazing, top down car games would be amazing etc etc.
- Comment on A YouTuber let the Cybertruck close on his finger to test the new sensor update. It didn't go well. 5 days ago:
I get it’s nice to have, and if it somehow cost nothing I wouldn’t mind having it in a car, if it’s pretty much guaranteed that when it fails it doesn’t prevent me from open/close manually. But I’d much rather not pay for neither the R&D, engineering, parts and manufacturing of it, only to end up with a more complex door mechanism that is more expensive to repair and more likely to break. When all it does is give me the slightest of conveniences. Best example of this is the motorized charging port lid on the Rivian. Like, whyyyy? Cheaper and longer lasting vehicles, please.

Ok. That definitely sucks, but I wouldn’t say that’s Spotify censoring anything. It’s just trash UX.

Granted I have only watched maybe 20 videos of his, but he’s covered topics that frustrate and anger him, and on the contrary he’s always been very calm and collected for someone speaking off the cuff.

I know I’m old school and all that, but why do people want to pay for automatically closing doors of any kind? Automatic opening of cargo spaces I get, if you have your bags full of hands or whatever, but once you put the stuff in there… Seem like such an incredibly unnecessary and costly feature, that also have a high chance of failing in the future. I don’t get it.

Granted I haven’t used Spotify for anything but an alarm clock ever since I canceled my premium a year ago, but what censorship are you talking about? 80% of my listening time before I quit was rap and I can assure you, there was a lot of bad language. Most albums and singles that have clean versions have a dirty version as well. Back in the day, clean and dirty were listed as separate albums, but they changed it so that it’s one listing and you have to somehow pick which version you want to look at/listen to/add to playlists. But maybe they changed that again I don’t know. I also vaguely remember there being a user setting for showing explicit content, but I’m not sure.

You make it sound as if artists could get compensated properly on Spotify if some more people paid for premium.

But where did the $2k phones for sub $1000 go? They’re all like twice as expensive.
- Comment on YouTube's war against third party apps is just as ridiculous as its war on adblockers 5 days ago:
I’m so addicted to YouTube it’s gonna be a very rough time when I can no longer watch without ads, because I’m sure as hell not watching ads.

And as a bonus, they (at least the Nokias and Ericssons) could be used as weapons.

Duck Duck Go is also complete trash these days, just in different ways.

I wonder what it’ll do to human reproduction rates when we have those.
- Comment on Stretchable e-skin could give robots human-level touch sensitivity 6 days ago:
Solution: wrap all machines in skin, and several eyes, and ears, so it can sense if it’s about to injure someone. And at least one mouth do that it can communicate a warning.

Thanks for the link. And yeah, maybe not something you’d want to rely on. But it’s worth a try as a compliment to running Windows in a VM to run Affinity.

Affinity Suite through Wine would be pretty big. Do you know if it’s only the newest version that’s “working”?

I don’t see how that makes any sense. Unless it’s “guys can also make the first move, if they pay”. That would be in line with what I’d expect from a company in 2024.
