Agreed. My PC case came with a blue power light, after one night of watching the blinking illuminate my entire room I ripped it out and swapped in a dim red one myself.
For a quick fix, you can make blue power LEDs slightly more tolerable by sticking a piece of yellow post-it note on top of them, it turns them white.
Different systems, the length doesn't tell the whole story.
André Klip, a professor of criminal law, criminal procedure and the transnational aspects of criminal law at Maastricht University, said he wasn't surprised by Thursday's outcome and that Coban would likely spend more time in prison in the Netherlands than if he served his time in Canada.
"Dutch law is very predictable in terms of when a person can be released after being sentenced," he said. "It's very likely that ... he would have been out far more early [in Canada]." -CBC
Specs are the same, the APU is just now 6nm instead of 7nm which is more efficient and lets it run a few degrees cooler and therefore boost a bit higher without overheating, and the RAM bandwidth went from 88Gb/s to 102Gb/s.
Consensus seems to be somewhere between 5-10% better fps, which means a game that ran at 50 fps might go up to 55, or one that ran at 28 might finally hit 30.
Yes, but then it would be slightly heavier and have way too good of a battery life, reducing power bank sales and having the phone last longer without needing to be replaced due to battery degradation.
The weekly releases are looking rather promising on the UI polish, Maker's Muse did a video on it recently. There's also Ondsel which has an even more polished UI.
And they are getting closer to the 1.0 release as well:
Issue stats: overall, there are 1852 open issues in the tracker, down by 14 from last week. 26 of them are v1.0 release blockers, down by 14 from last week as well.
You can be an American with Russian ancestry, and you can even apply and get US citizenship as a Russian citizen, but Russia doesn't legally recognise US dual citizenships at all. In fact, they only recognise it with two countries, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan.
And if an American wanted to get a Russian citizenship, they would be required to renounce their American citizenship first - at least that was the case for a long time, I remember reading there being some work removing that requirement.
But you would still be seen only as Russian when in Russia.
Depends on the game. There is no functionality in Steam for buffering them offline, it's just that some games run the check for all achievements every time you load a save or gain a new achievement, while others only do it for the one you just gained.
That's why I have "complete 40 substories" in Yakuza 4, but not the one for finishing 20 of them - it triggers when you complete the 20th, and never again.
Meanwhile I imported a complete save to a different game for mod dev debugging purposes, and it unlocked every single achievement the game had the moment I loaded that.
This got rarer later on, once they realised the could fill the discs with FMV sequences instead.
Speaking of PS1 games and disk-filling FMVs: Final Fantasy 7 on the PSX comes on 3 disks but the actual game itself is duplicated on all of them and you can swap them out during gameplay, and the only thing that happens is that it plays the wrong FMVs.
It all breaks down to the actual "game" taking 133MB, plus few hundred for the uncompressed pre-rendered backgrounds, out of the available ~1.8GB (according to this old post about how a Nintendo DS port could easily fit on a 256MB flash cart.)
In this case, the question was rhetorical - the original release of BG1 takes 5 CDs, and the sixth is the Tales of the Sword Coast expansion. Installed the game takes around 2.8GB IIRC.
They did eventually re-release it as only a 3 CD set because they could cram more data on a single CD by then.
Why would anyone need a 24TB HDD?
Because in the time we have gone from 4GB SD cards to 4TB cards, movies have gone from being 700MB to 70Gb, and games from coming on a few cds or dvds to requiring a mountain of them - Baldurs Gate 1 came on 5 CDs, BG3 would require around 200 of them.
That 4TB card has only space for 26 games, if they are as large as BG3.
On a technicality, as in the end he wasn't convicted of that under Dutch law because rape (back then) required violence. Any newspaper directly calling him a child rapist opens themselves up to a possible lawsuit.
The sentence was adjusted in line with Dutch law, and the charge of rape was substituted for one referring to ontucht ("sexual acts that violate social-ethical norms").[21][22] After serving 13 months of his original four year sentence, he was released from prison.[17] Until 1 July 2024, Dutch law only recognised rape if force was involved.[23]
It's going back to the roots, just in an extremely twisted way - I'm old enough to remember when Reddit was just a link aggregator. You put your stuff on your own site/blog/forum (remember those?), and linked to that from reddit.
People could then upvote and comment on it on reddit, but the idea of posting something there directly was ridiculous - how could anything be found later when it would get buried under the new stuff in a few hours, and bumping isn't a thing at all?
Fuck reddit and social media, I want my forums back :(
Also my back hurts, music these days is terrible, and the 90s' were just a decade ago or so.
9 digit social security number specifically might be, but a unique number tied to you that is often used as identification when it really shouldn't isn't, it's a shitshow that has been implemented in many countries around the world.
The Finnish version was called an SSN originally for example, though now its a "henkilötunnus", personal identity code.
The detector provides an assessment of how likely it is that all or part of the document was written by ChatGPT. Given a sufficient amount of text, the method is said to be 99.9 percent effective.
That means given 100 pieces of text and asked if they are made by ChatGPT or not, it gets maybe one of them wrong.
Allegedly, that is, and with the caveat of "sufficient amount of text", whatever that means.
