  • I just swapped from NVidia to AMD, since Proton was not working under NVidia for Starfield at launch (and I’ve generally been unhappy using NVidia for a while).

    I can finally also use things like Wayland where NVidia just doesn’t support it well enough to be a good option (e.g., weird issues with full disk encryption unlock screen, no night light support)

    I know CUDA and productivity apps might push you in the other direction, but if your main priority is gaming, I suspect AMD will be nicer. My first impressions is that it plays way better with Linux and reduces headaches that shouldn’t exist but you’ll deal with under Nvidia.

  • This just feels like non-technical fear mongering. Frankly, the term “AI” is just way too overused for any of this to be useful - Autopilot, manufacturing robots, and ChatGPT are all distinct systems that have their own concerns, tradeoffs, regulatory issues, etc. and trying to lump them together reduces the capacity for discussion down to a single (not very useful, imo) take

    editing for clarity: I’m for discussion of more regulation and caution, but conflating tons of disparate technologies still imo muddies the waters of public discussion

  • The traffic argument is so infuriating. When will American journalism, and Americans at large, realize the very simple truth: no large city in the US will ever exist without traffic, without a fundamental shift from our car-centric culture and development to transit-oriented?

  • I own both products and use both, I think either were good and worth the money, but either are inaccessible to most kids. No chance in hell I would've gotten a $200 backpack during high school or college.

  • Isn't it a shame, then, that you won't really be able to do this unless you're a developer with a Mac who can sideload it. Almost certainly visionOS will have the same draconian restrictions that get placed onto iOS's App Store, and almost certainly no sideloading for non-developers either.

    This headline just kinda depresses me. It's super cool work that everyone should get to mess with, but it seems like Big Tech is intent on allowing for zero fun, all in the name of security and anti-piracy.
