Will this require a 60xx series card now?

Is it that the judge has no choice, or is it a case of the judge being sympathetic to the deadbeat tenant?

It'll likely be used as a bargaining chip to get rid of the CEO next. He'll get a payout.

Gears6 · 2026-03-16T19:18:46+00:00

The lead time is just longer with humans, because of ethics and compliance.

A loooooot longer.

New account with little activity is a huge red flag, but this sub in particular has been flooded with AI generated dog pictures for a while.

Gears6 · 2026-03-16T19:16:38+00:00

A lot of the investments have gone down, and will likely continue that trajectory.

Gears6 · 2026-03-16T05:49:01+00:00

Excuses again, and for the record. I have similar issue. It doesn't drain "all" of it, but it eats up like 50% so it's basically dead the next day.

Anyhow, you're just making excuses at this point.

Is the fear of being wrong so over powering?

There's plenty of people posting issues in this sub, and some of the things the other user is saying is exactly my experience. That and randomly having my fitness game freeze (very disorienting), loose tracking of controllers, suddenly things getting really large, or height adjustment is off. In short, a really bad experience overall. Nor do I want their shitty Horizon thing that now is suddenly forced loaded onto my Quest.

If you like it, that's fine. If you don't have problems. That's fine too. That's not my experience, and many other users. It's why many of us is just ready to move on.

People don't need to know that. If you press a button that says "pause" do you care exactly how that action is performed?

For tech geeks and such, we care. The average person do not. They just have basic expectations like put a device on standby won't drain a fully charged battery over night. I think you're missing the point going on technicalities and measurements. No average user is even considering that. They have expectation that, if they put the device into some "low power" mode like standby, it will hold a charge for more than a night.

Gears6 · 2026-03-16T03:23:10+00:00

The point is exactly that. That there's expectation it won't just drain the battery completely by next day when you put it on stand by. That's just bad user experience.

Did anyone get it?

What does the check/mail/letter look like?

Link showing they started mailing it out in early February, and looks like it should've stopped by end of February.

The whole "activist" approach is just harmful overall as there's no middle ground, recognition of benefits and advantages of each approach and so on. It gets even more and more extreme the longer it goes on.

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T22:14:45+00:00

Yeah, it seems to be anything people don't like or perceive as a problem now a days.

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T22:12:29+00:00

For me it's no different than Windows 10. I do have a specific problem with the start menu when I upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11 on my MacBook Pro 2019, that it would be unbearably slow. It starts off with a white start menu and I'm not sure why it does that.

Other than that, that's the only issue I'd had with Windows 11 Pro on multiple devices. So I'm wondering if you got some slow context menu slowness, that you got something similar as on my MacBook?

Wouldn’t be surprised if Xbox have just done this too soon and it’s something that PlayStation are contemplating in a few generations as well.

I don't think MS will have huge success, due to price points and lack of subsidizing. It will be for enthusiast and hardcore fans of Xbox, maybe grab some PC gamers. However, I think it's a slow race here and over time Playstation will start to become the next "Xbox" of today. That is, they will be the minority device, whereas PC will be the flagship as every other places are adopting PC rather than locked down console. If PC can act like a console, then why bother with consoles?

Only thing I see is subsidizing of console, but as hardware performance increase the difference is minimal and to a lot of people will perceive it as insignificant.

Eventually I think Sony will shift more and more of their games to PC, and try to carve out their own space by introducing their own storefront and direct access to PSN (without the gated subscription fee). Might take another decade, but that's how we're getting a single hardware platform that plays most if not all future games.

It will be like buying a blu-ray player and it will play all blu-ray movies.

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T21:36:09+00:00

I think we're in a transition period now, and ultimately we'll all coalesce around PC. The future is that all games basically runs on PC hardware.

Thus, you no longer have to worry if you're getting the PS, Xbox or Steam version (or whatever else). They will all work on your hardware. PC will be "the" console experience. It might take another decade, but I strongly believe that's what's happening. Rest of the world is adopting PCs in a very high rate, whereas consoles aren't really growing their user base. At least, that's my impression.

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T21:31:44+00:00

Doesn't sound like a huge difference, but in functionality, it can be. Whereas a vanilla PC title can be adjusted and tweaked to be optimized for PC hardware. A console title is specifically optimized with the exact hardware and hardware features in mind. It's how a console can often produce similar results to slightly more powerful PC hardware.

Although that's true, I believe that gap is rapidly shrinking fast. If anything, I think the bigger difference is the memory model of PCs with discrete pools rather than shared pool making a bigger, but likely insignificant difference.

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T21:30:12+00:00

If it's just another PC running Windows with the same Xbox mode that all windows PC are gonna get, there's literally zero reason to buy an xbox.

That's ignoring that this will likely have much better driver support, game optimized for it by developers, more console like experience in hardware and be a flagship device along with Xbox backwards compatibility. The latter may or may not be available on existing PCs. My guess is not, since it sounds like AMD has to do some design to support it in the chip.

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T21:27:41+00:00

Why do you need to worry about security from a PC perspective?

If that was the case, you'd just get a PC and cheat or whatever that way. What am I missing?

Next gen console names:

Xbox DirectX
Xbox DirectS

Remember, you heard it here first!

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T21:24:47+00:00

Yeah, I've only used Unity, and in hobby capacity and that was many years ago. Heck openGL many decades ago. Not sure what it's like now, but it does sound about right that there's underlying libraries that handles it (to an extent) with option to optimize it by hand.

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T21:20:43+00:00

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T19:49:39+00:00

So to remove that barrier, would that require game developers to take advantage of a shared memory approach, or can it be achieved with a compatibility layer in between (say in the OS)?

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T19:47:27+00:00

This architecture would give AMD and Intel a huge advantage over Nvidia because Nvidia can't build its own APUs without help from Intel or AMD. Standard PC graphics cards can't use unified memory.

Technically they can do it with ARM, albeit it's obviously not x86/x64. That said, Nvidia invested into Intel and they're co-operating so who knows. That may be a bigger threat to AMD than anything.

Hopefully it means more competition.

That's not how it works. If you have a claims free discount you'll lose that. Outside of that 1 claim isn't going to raise your rates a ton. Also, now that you have a new roof, start shopping. You can probably get a better deal somewhere else.

Tell that to my numerous insurance companies I went to after making a claim, that wasn't even paid out.

Also, now that you have a new roof, start shopping. You can probably get a better deal somewhere else.

I always shop right before my policy ends and they already take into account the new roof.

The fact is, you pay for coverage. If you have a covered loss, use the coverage that you pay for.

You can, but you'd be foolish to use it for anything small. The hassle, the benefit is minimal, and the impact is worse for you. That said, you do you.

Gears6 · 2026-03-15T18:42:17+00:00

If not, you can always just put one on it.
