But the judge and prosecutors should know that this would happen right? I'm a tad above a layman but isn't it obvious that this would happen? It's so negligent I'm almost convinced that it was negligence. Or is it that they usually get away with this kind of thing?

You and I don't disagree here. The guy I replied to is arguing that we shouldn't really even be asking why it took this long, because we eventually got it. The act of questioning why it took this long shouldn't immediately get a response of "at least it's reversed now, stop complaining". The guy saving the drowning man could very well have very valid reasons as to why he's waiting, that we don't know. But if we don't know them, we kinda have to ask don't we?

I'm yet to see anyone get the reason for it taking this long and not accept it. It's been ~6 months since they got back the FCC. The complaint isn't over a measly 6 months. That's an acceptable amount of time really. The first assumption is usually that they've had the ability to reverse it much closer to when Biden took office. Waiting until near to the end of a 4 year term is a really long time.

Now imagine their replacement actively wants to drown people and for some reason there are people who think both sides are reasonable choices

Nobody here is saying that. Do you really think the person who's wondering why it took this long is sitting there saying the Republicans made a reasonable choice to remove net neutrality? Really?

others are backing the pro-drowning guy.

Who cares? They're irrelevant to this. We already disagree with them. We're likely never going to agree with them. They're not criticizing how long it took to reverse Net Neutrality. They're mad that it was reimplemented at all.

I'll take the guy who took his time.

What? Who isn't? Again, the action of reimplementing Net Neutrality isn't being criticized. Them taking this long is what's being criticized. Or do I need to ask you to give evidence of left leaning people complaining that Net Neutrality was reimplemented?

You're advocating for just taking whatever you get as long there's someone worse. With that same logic, the guy could wait and watch the drowning guy get bitten by something in the water and get injured trying to save himself and then save him. You'd still accept that no problem huh? You're saying that there's no reason to improve, because at least you're better than the other guy.

Furthermore, everyone I've seen so far has accepted the reason for it taking this long. So again, the way you're framing this is strange.

They're not being criticized for doing the right thing. They're being criticized for the negative aspect. Many others have answered it, but the way you're framing this is kinda strange.

You'd equally criticize anyone else that you thought had the power to save a drowning man but sat there watching for a while before finally saving him.

1. Shut up nerd!
2. I learned something today. Thanks.

Basically, it seems to me like the technology in mobile GPUs is crazier than desktop/laptop GPUs.

It's not. They have the same software technologies and the desktop counterparts have better hardware.

but not by enough that it seems to need to be 100x bigger than a mobile GPU.

Yes it is. No benchmarks would agree with you here. Also, just look at the power draw for each and how much noise each cooling solution makes.

And top end mobile GPUs actually perform quite admirably when it comes to graphics and power.

Depends entirely on what you see as admirable. Power efficiency wise, they're great, but their performance isn't anything to write home about, especially considering that they typically share cooling solutions with the CPU. And that's at the top of the line. Lower down, it's not all that great, with desktop counterparts having much better 1% lows when the power is more comparable.

So with most of what you said being incorrect, your conclusion is also incorrect. Generally, more surface area on coolers means they can cool higher power limits, can have bigger fans and/or have those fans spin slower so they're much quieter. Regarding the power consumption, it's simply diminishing returns. Mobile GPUs are just cut sooner on the graph.

I find it odd that people say "No, Nvidia is better"

I'd assume that by better, they mean the performance, I'm which Nvidia is definitely better. They've been doing it for longer and at this point. Account for the number of years in the game and they're pretty equal. 20 series Ray Tracing is a joke.

The majority of people aren't bothering with RT anyway.

They definitely did. This will easily be the top Apex news for at least a week.

I read here recently that the rich people who pay attention to Forbes for investment information avoid all Forbes contributor content and focus only official article from Forbes staff.

I understand you, but they're not the ones who matter here tbh; it's other laymen. I don't use Forbes, I just know what Forbes is. Looking at that page, I'd have no idea what you're talking about. The url is Forbes, the author's name is there, and is labelled as a senior contributor. For most of us: "we hit Forbes boys!"

Goddamn, it really did hit Forbes. Now I'm really interested in how Respawn will handle this one.

Exactly. No reputable company is going to NOT put their logo on the phone, especially with the main other difference is the camera stack. It's free advertising. The assumption is that you'll throw a case or skin on it anyway.

The data being generated now sure, but there's still the years of actually useful data there.

Then add on the remaining half of comments that are from sensible users and it's a decent, and still fairly unique, dataset.

Google just doesn’t know what the fuck they are doing

Can you send this to Google:

"See Apple Pay and the Wallet app on iOS."

I really don't understand how they can see another company doing things right and still be this lackluster. Copying the good things their competition does it a good thing sometimes.

True, we all know he won't take it, especially considering that his benefactors would gladly match it for him to stay in his seat.

But it was a solid end to an episode outlining how scummy he is with his bribes. The episode wouldn't get as much traction as it would be seen as barely more than another call-out.

And in the one-in-a-milliom chance that he accepts, we still win.

Does it really make sense to complain about fragmentation here when many distros are just downstream from others? I was on Pop! And have used Ubuntu but am on Debian at the moment. Nothing's really changed. I installed the same application versions, I'd read the same tutorials to get things done. What am I missing here?

Arli and the article only use "may" and "could" because we have no instances of it in practice yet and they can't directly assert the policy's intention as hastily. But it is simple: If you don't add your biological sex, they can count it as fraud and subsequently refuse to update your documents. We're all commenting on it because it's so simple and obvious. It's Florida. We know what they're doing.

It doesn't even need to be a hobby in the sense that you're always there. Going a few times a week gets you exposed to people and you're getting more fit and healthier. And there's usually at least self confidence that comes along to help with finding other hobbies if you want.

RGB for Corsair (iQue on windows, open to alternatives)

What I do with my Commander is to use the onboard lighting and fan curves. Set it up on a VM or when you still have Windows.

You can also look into Liquidctl

'tis a shame you couldn't say what words I'd put in your mouth.

No, because that would be the dev's choice.

That "because" isn't actually telling the reason. You'd be fine with it, because it's on Steam. Any kind of exclusivity is also the devs choice, and you obviously have a problem when they choose to be exclusive to a platform you don't use.

but Valve does nothing extra to encourage exclusivity.

Apart from having the most market share, that you yourself already admitted.

People have and still do complain when games aren't on GoG.

I never asked about anybody else. I asked about you. Or should I take it you never complained when games aren't also on GoG?

OK, we're done. You don't understand or acknowledge financial coercion so this is going nowhere. Byyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyye.

Oh, damn, imagine thinking that once there's money on the table they must take it, and then at the same time, not understanding the value of a near monopoly. Steam is literally leveraging the large amount of people that will buy the game if it's on Steam. I even acknowledged it. Me saying that they don't have to take it is quite literally acknowledging it. But ok, byyyyyyyyyyyyyye.

I put nothing in your mouth. Actually, quote the words I'm putting in your mouth and explain how. I merely showed the reality of words you typed. If Palworld was available exclusively on Steam would you care? If any other game you care about and wanted to play was exclusively on Steam, would there be a post or comment complaining about it?

Offering financial incentives isn't the forcing anyone. You're fine with Steam getting exclusives, so this has absolutely nothing to do with the concept of exclusives. Devs aren't forced to take any incentives if they don't want it.

But now that you mentioned it:

Devs use steam because it's where the people are.

This is an incentive. Steam doesn't offer money because they have pretty much a monopoly. And you guys will only buy from Steam, reinforcing it. You know you all of these stores are essentially just where you buy it right? I don't even use EGS to launch games. It's not some "you only get to pick one" kinda bullshit.

Look at palworld: gamepass and steam and you know they got paid for gamepass.

Yeah, because Game Pass isn't looking to take on Steam. Game pass is a subscription service.
