They’re Ryzen processors with “AI” accelerators, so an LLM can definitely run on hardware on one of those. Other options are available, like lower powered ARM chipsets (RK3588-based boards) with accelerators that might have half the performance but are far cheaper to run, should be enough for a basic LLM.

I think the moral of the story here is more along the lines of “don’t install weird off-brand versions of apps from dodgy places” (F-Droid excepted, obviously)

Like what the fuck is a “Black WhatsApp”?

Make sure that splitter is specifically marked as a powered HDCP 1.3 splitter, the exploit was patched in 1.4.

Kojima wanted out of the franchise after Solid 2 and pretty much every subsequent game since.

Konami are asses to work for and Kojima kept pushing the envelope for what they’d let him do for every game he made with them. MGS5 was where they drew the line in terms of scope and budget (MGS4 cost like $40m to make and god knows what MGS5 would have cost by the end of it) and aside from the fact that he didn’t get to finish it, he was probably more relieved than anything to be free of them.

At least Konami makes a decent slot/pokie machine nowadays. They give Aristocrat a run for their money.

Good to see nothing has changed from the days of the original Switch port of the first game. The one with trees that ran at such a low LOD that they just floated. The one that often ran at 180p. The one that they had to contract an outside dev just to remake it competently.

Does he have much experience with computers? Not sure if it’d be easier to set him up with something like ChimeraOS that just runs Steam and the game or a basic desktop environment so he can write stuff and browse the internet.

In the aged care home I work in, we’ve had a few who can work a smart phone but most can barely work their TV. Being into RC planes might work in his favour.

The eSafety commission argued that “well everyone just uses VPNs anyway so it won’t matter”

Eh, have you seen some of the bots that just repost reddit content verbatim? Some trash slips through the cracks.

This is just an ad for something called PrivateLINE (no relation).

I used to pay for Deezer used and a variety of downloaders to download FLACs from them, but then they seemed to break that at some point and a ton of metadata was borked. Also, some artists who were on a bunch of different labels only ever had stuff from just one label on there, which meant a trip to the torrent sites/Soulseek anyway.

I just gave up and went back to Soulseek and RuTracker for my music after a while.

The computer should only be for education, high morals, and bettering our humanity. Not for pornography and not for exploiting women.

Welcome to the “90% of web browsers are Chrome, so let’s just optimise for Chrome” issue with the internet. Probably doesn’t help that Edge and about a kajillion different browsers are also just Chrome/Chromium.

Solution? Get the web to stop relying so much on Chrome and Google. It’s just that easy!

God I love all consuming conglomerates.

They better not fuck up Digital Foundry with all of this.

Nice to see a new flagship with a MicroSD slot and a headphone jack. Also, Sony have a good track record with opening up their Android phones.

But yeah, shame about the price.

Event planning platforms are never going to compete with massive social communication platforms, they’re entirely different ends of the stick.

As long as Mobilizon continues to work, that’s all I ask for.

4K Blu Rays encoded in H265 are usually on 100gb discs, so I can see where they’re coming from

Why is it 694mb, Windows only and hosted on Mediafire?

Nice try, but no.

The Germans have been making jank fantasy games for years. They’re just only on PC and nobody plays them.

Shame nobody has been able to reuse the existing Google board but this is probably the next best thing. Might have to pick up a few boards.

He joined Universodon during one of the Twitter exoduses a couple years back. Elvira also joined Universodon without knowing it was a space themed instance. Not sure if she’s still there.
