I've heard how the work culture can be pretty toxic but the amount of thought and care put into every aspect of the experience amazes me. Shame, sony was one of my favorite companies for AV equipment but their newer devices are just not as good as they used to be.

This poor judgement seems to be mostly from the PlayStation decision but I can help to think this is a sign overall company culture shift.

It's like the drop in quality at Toyota resulting in defects never heard of before (airbag defects, melting wing mirors, faulty screens) or the first Honda I've ever owned where the engine had a defect affecting multiple cars in their lineup making it dump gas into the oil.

A distro used by Walmart because they were too cheap to pay for windows.

Saves more water with a recirculation pump on the hot water line. I now literally turn it on, adjust the heat and jump in. It's amazing having instant hot water.

What drivers issues, don't consoles require just as many updates? I distinctly remember console update taking upwards of a half an hour to install like 300Mb. Refusing to update would log you out and disable digitally purchased games. It often killed the mood when I just wanted to play some games after work, the steam deck filled that spot nicely.

Besides I use Linux so my drivers are built in and updates are unintrusive and take no time to apply. I have it set to remind me once a month, I get a little icon in the taskbar and I apply them before shutting down. It takes like two minutes.

I'm not judging if you like console but modern consoles are just as annoying as any other internet appliances. They need updates, they need regular Internet access to work, they can't really do anything else, when it shits the bed your expected to throw it away get a new one, and often have tack on a monthly fee for basic features.

I need a computer so instead of splitting the cost between a computer that won't be too slow to do any real work and a $500 game console I just get a more powerful computer and justify the cost with the money I'm saving.

I mean console games are always more expensive. There's always something amusing about getting about 20 good games for five bucks on PC. Also epic games is still trying to bribe us with free games.

Chromebook ready😂

Mfers be playing cyberpunk on an i3 with 1g of ram.

Nah, it's just reacting to all the bullshit companies do. I really wish the things he covers just didn't exist sometimes. I thought it was funny how relatable this moment is when watching Louis.

My mother and aunt picked up on it just fine, they're actually enjoying it more because there aren't full screen ads that confuse them and it made their computers faster.

I think at this point in time it JIT compiles into byte code and cached which is more efficiently interpreted the next time that function is called.

Yeah, whatever is reasonable and within the terms of your lease is usually the best bet.

The worst part is they are so up their own ass nothing you say does anything. Maybe because I'm young but I don't know why I try to explain the reason I'd help someone with their issue.

Honestly if someone irons out the edge cases, python probably could JIT compile to machine code via cython. It would take a fair bit of memory and probably a bit slow on low powered systems but it would be so much faster if cached.

You delete each set of letter from least significant to most significant with $ replacing each letter and the title tag saying where's my money. If all letters disappear swap the entire website with space jam website and this gif.

Sounds neat! Don't really care much for messing with config files for hours. This is from someone who uses arch on all his systems. I've been in config hell for a while, I use kde now.

It's either that or maintain a swamp cooler that won't work on humid days and can cause respiratory infection if not cleaned properly. A renters options are very limited and a window unit is a pretty good compromise if you don't want to loose a deposit.

If you want to sit in a sweltering room during a 100° day, no one is stopping you. I've heard it's a pretty typical thing for Europeans anyway. I'm not judging, the guy wants to cool the room down.

I don't know how big your apartment is but why not a window unit. It's probably the most efficient way to cook your apartment down short of redesigning the building.

I like the aur too but a proprietary app that isn't updated to support newer dependencies, it most likely won't run anyway. At that point it's either broken app, broken system, or you don't have anything else installed using that library(yet).

Also companies are lazy and if we don't want to be stuck on Ubuntu for proprietary app stability. We should probably embrace something like flatpak. Also when companies neglect their apps, it'll have a better chance of working down the road thanks to support for multiple dependency versions on the same install.

So the final step is the internet blows up?

I mean they don't need drm if updated requirements can't be met by the host system. Steam stopped officially supporting windows 7 because of some core platform security libraries that is needed for newer versions of chrome just doesn't exist on windows 7 and won't because windows 7 is EOL.
