- Comment on Xbox 360/PS3/(to a lesser extent) Wii owners represent 1 week ago:
The PS3 doesn’t have an ATI gpu. TL;DR: it’s Nvidia.
The PS3 has a weird, one-of-a-kind IBM processor, called Cell. You can think of it kind of as a hybrid design that is both a CPU and a GPU (not like “a chip with both inside” but “a chip that is both”) meant for multimedia and entertainment applications (like a game console). It was so peculiar that developers took a long time before learning how to use it effectively. Microsoft didn’t want to risk it, so they went with a different CPU always from IBM that shared some of the Cell’s design, but without the special GPU-ish parts, and paired it up with an ATI GPU.
Now, Sony wanted to get away with only the Cell, and use it both as CPU and GPU, but various tests showed that despite everything, it wasn’t powerful enough to keep up with the graphics they expected. So they reached out to NVIDIA (not ATI) to make an additional GPU, so they designed a modified version of the 7800 GTX to work together with the Cell. To fully utilise the PS3 graphics hardware, one would have to mainly use the GPU for graphics, and assist it with the special Cell hardware. Which is harder.

I know what I said, I looked up the symbols they use, that is the symbol for castration, it’s like a mars symbol, but barred. The one for spaying (?) is like the Venus symbol, but without the little horizontal line

Doesn’t the symbol on her shirt mean she was castrated?
- Comment on Black Mirror AI 2 weeks ago:
A lot of FOSS software’s websites are starting to use it lately, starting from the gnome foundation, that’s what popularized it.
The idea of proof of work itself came from spam emails, of all places. One proposed but never adopted way of preventing spam was hashcash, which required emails to have a proof of work embedded in the email. Bitcoins came after this borrowing the idea

my point was that even if they don’t have unlimited ips they might have a lot of them, especially if its ipv6, so you couldn’t just block them. but you can use anubis that doesn’t rely on ip filtering
- Comment on Black Mirror AI 2 weeks ago:
There’s always Anubis 🤷
Anyway, what if they are backed by some big Chinese corporation with some /32 ipv6 and some /16 ipv4? It’s not that unreasonable

- Comment on Horses ARE Forever 2 months ago:
In Italy we eat horses, so they are also farmed for food. I bet all the horses that end up on a slice of bread or a pizza would rather have pulled a carriage. Still they are a much less popular meat, I don’t think horse farming is as bad as, say, pig farming, (for the horse I mean) because there’s much less demand. “Frayed threads” (lack of better translation) of horse are pretty good with olive oil btw.
