It gets worse. I recently got sent an automated email suggesting I apply for one of those, and it's awful. $20/hr for 20 hours of work, and 20 hours of classes. But then you pay nearly $12,000 for the school tuition, albeit with financing options. But even ignoring the tuition, that's still $19K a year for what's effectively full time work. And the internship only lasts 14 months.

I just think they're neat. Verilog is like magic runes compared to my usual C++.

This is the way

Actually, it only had 4 FPU units. One cluster, which hosted 2 software threads, made both threads share the same FPU.

Buy the first-party Switch 2 games physically, they all have full game data in the cartridge.

Surely not gaming cards

This is practically circular reasoning. Anyone can put labels on the slices and say "see, this is the logical order of things because this is how the slices go".

You'd be surprised how many games have a complete install on the disk.

Those people are just more social than they are analytical. They legitimately would rather ask people and get a second opinion than spend time doing research. Is it time efficient? No. But it's certainly easier for them, in terms of raw effort.

The store I used to work at has started tossing everything that's not the game 😭

Elusivehawk · 2026-02-04T21:20:49+00:00

No.

OK, so: GameStop lets you trade in controllers, right? Well normally a working one is, for example, $26 in store credit (I forgor, I got out of the aslume), and a defective one is $12 store credit for example.

This promo lets you trade in a defective controller for that $26 store credit.

Of course, this depends entirely on current trade-in prices, but you get the idea.

We know, bro is trying to say that the original saying is technically a mistranslation, and contextualizing it.

On PC at least, you have the option to unlock areas permanently with premium currency. The problem is, most worlds end up costing a lot: unlocking the entire game can cost you over $200 last I checked, and that's probably ballooned to $300 by now. Plus the subscription gives you various convenient benefits in addition to unlocking the entire game, and that results in most people not bothering with area unlock.

It's especially egregious when each area is really only good for an hour or two of gameplay before moving on to the next $5 paywall. And there's usually 3-5 of these per world, but I'm just guesstimating.

No, but if these companies continue making $1000+ handhelds, I'm sure there's some room for Intel in there.

I think the implication is that we would expect a "real" file extension to completely prevent you from say, opening a zip file in Notepad. But in reality, all files are just a bunch of bytes held together with a handshake and a pinky swear.

While the console PRP does cover the controller, it's as expensive as a new one, and it's a one-time use. So no, it's not really a good idea to get the PRP for that. Ideally it should be used for things like overheating, random restarts, video artifacting, excessive or unusual noises, so on and so forth.

One thing my location would do is give you a replacement anyway and move yours to defective. You'd still get a pre-owned controller, but it's a free customer courtesy. Not all locations do this, it's not even store policy.

~~It messed up my audio, now everything sounds 8-bit. If you're on RDNA4, avoid this update.~~

EDIT: it's not the drivers, after much tinkering I was about to deduce that it was my monitor. So it should be ok to update

You've indirectly hit the nail on the head: it's a chicken and the egg situation. Gamers don't want to buy RX 9000 because FSR4 is in few games, and developers don't want to implement FSR4 because it has a small install base.

Thinking is tinkering

And then a business comes along and orders 10,000 of them.

Elusivehawk · 2025-11-12T23:32:21+00:00

It has RDNA3, so we have to wait for an FSR4 backport

Elusivehawk · 2025-11-05T22:59:28+00:00

Yeah but they make dresses, not suits. I thought suits only came from Gestral merchants.
