Iirc it's fairly lightweight without much overhead. It's not as heavy as running VM your PC.

They specifically called out generative AI though. Stuff like separating photographs to individual pieces doesn't require generative AI specifically. Machine learning models that fall into the general umbrella of AI already exist for object segmentation.

It was actually a third party open source project originally lol

There's a reason they made PowerToys Run. It's miles ahead of the default Windows search experience.

Not sure what you mean here with your sarcasm. Proton means that developers can just write games for Windows and expect to make that version compatible with Linux with minimal changes as opposed to making a native Linux version.

As a developer myself, I know that it doesn't make sense for a developer in most cases to write a Linux version and support it when the Linux user base is tiny by comparison. It happened with OS/2 and it can happen again. Not to mention Linux game developer tooling pales in comparison to Windows with DirectX.

I expected this from the start once proton was introduced, just not from Valve themselves... Welp. It's now inevitable.

Sounds a lot like what the fascist regimes of world war 2 were doing...

The worst is when it's buried in Github issues or in a header file with thousands and thousands of lines of code. Yes I'm looking at you DearImGui, your documentation is awful and I'm already being generous.

They should make any developers who are required to write documentation go through this step. It'll be an interesting day and you'll actually learn something.. I hope.

Iirc the die area for Apple's chips are also a lot larger and that's expensive. It's a lot easier for them to tank that cost because they are building them for themselves rather than selling them to vendors who manufacture products like AMD.

They always had their own fabs. Utilising TSMC for their GPU's was a recent thing. For all the mistakes they have done, their GPU efforts are actually noteworthy but you don't even have to compare them to ARM or other GPU manufacturers, just look at AMD, they've been killing it.

If you've never played the sequels, the story for those are amazing.

Don't forget the potential oxidation issues.

That's still something that works more than good enough without the use of an NPU. We'll see if better use cases come out in future but I'd still prefer that power and die area go to raw CPU processing power.

Indefinitely implies never being able to go back which is much more similar to your analogy though. Either way, it's clearly a click bait headline.

Yea I actually really like 5v5. It changed the pace of the game to something that I actually like compared to Overwatch 1. That said, the game still failed to keep my interest weeks after release so maybe I'm really just not part of their target audience.

I was prompted during the initial set up of my Fold 6 (Singapore SKU) on whether I wanted to enable it or not though and the option was disabled by default. So something doesn't seem right here or maybe this is an American SKU only thing?

The article actually talks about Azure which was using CrowdStrike internally so their point is valid but the headline is absolutely wrong. Azure is nowhere near a monopoly and it ends up implying that Windows, now Azure was the issue they're describing.

I gave up and used an extension to remove video recommendations, blocked shorts and auto redirect me to my subscriptions list away from the home page. It's a lot more pleasant to use now.

It's a form factor where software is even more important though. I'm sure that for some people the larger screen is fine enough but at that price point, the average person needs more value out of that cost. To each their own but it does seem that it's not as clear cut as YouTubers may make it seem. There's also the fact that Samsung does provide far better deals and support at least in this country compared to their Chinese counterparts.
