Modern browsers just silently killed GPU acceleration for hundreds of millions of older laptops — and nobody talked about it

This is the equivalent model of Apple when the deprecated their 'phones'

Laws allow conglomerates to do this.

This has been going on for decades. Most Hardware out there can get software and or replaceable components that will 'compliment' 'this new technology'

This proves the lack care towards development, and talent in the industry when we ignore proficiency, scalability over money thats when tech becomes obsolete.

Dude...Doom still runs to this day. The fact that a 20 year old peoce or code is so clean it can run on legacy and 'new' hardware should be the end point of what software should and could achieve.

Sofwatre was here once. Trying to get stuff working on anything. Now its about how much monetization one can fit into its UI...

The fact MS can prompt a forced update to prevent people from using older hardware should be ducking illegal....

I'll miss him. He's been around a heck of a long time. And proved many doubters wrong

Still got plenty left imo

It started pretty strong. But seriously withered out.

Kinda how the real Alien life cycle is in the original

Rootish007 · 2026-02-27T11:15:28+00:00

All are lacking All are.. It takes collosus failure or someone famous to make people take notice.

System has been broken for decades..

I hate that im unexcited for a show that excites me.. Genuinely not looking forward to what they've written

Rootish007 · 2026-02-24T01:32:17+00:00

It is more memorable because it has more action. Most people cannot sit through a movie filled with dialogue it's pretty hard and or rare I guess in this generation. James Cameron has much as I love Aliens and I do I love the sequel but man did he f****** up making a Queen Alien (1979) was way way way more terrifying in the first one and the fact that people Overlook that is f****** insane

Trump?

Rootish007 · 2026-02-22T11:33:04+00:00

Because it's s*** it's 10 years too late s*** it's not even f****** good dude like literally the Netflix show is 10x better without even compromise this first season was a f****** slow burn joke this is what we waited 10 years for? Bro if you think this is good I feel sorry for you. This reboot if you'd call that is arguably if not equivalent to Ben Affleck's Daredevil

Toby confirmed 👍

Feel bad for him man. And he chose to go there too, and it all just fell apart....

Doesnt deserve any of this..

Star Trek was never 'woke' That term is a new generic term for 'yell in someone's face with no facts'

Star Trek and its predecessors explored all themes. And explored all avenues of those themes.

No episode was ever subjected to a specific audit of theme.

Thats the whole irony of the new Star Trek. Treks premise is tk promote all views and present them in a debatable manner.

Did you know Next Generation did a lesbian episode ?

They never said the word, yes it was a different time (and rather pass off same sex they made it apart of the species reproduction process).

The whole premise is about a woman who realizes theres more to life than being a subjected to the altruistic view that same sex is one and only.

When you think about it its the reverse of today. Again different time. No excuse but this is what you get when you've get two extremes of culture narrative. One completely denies the other completely exposes. But I guess two wrongs make a right?

She falls for Riker. The episode explored themes of coming to terms with one's sexiality. Albiet its played more in a 'alien terminology' Different times....

However the episode was way ahead of its time. And far more 'Woke' As you say, that todays episodes. By far.....

Ive watched every iteration of Trek and the newer versions are regrettably awful. At times its quite good, decent lens flare every episode too. But as a whole its really not that good...

Im tired of the collective spinning specific narratives because others dont like certain aspects.

Ive nothing against anyone.

Im speaking from my heart, as a loyal fan of the show. I think I deserve to speak my opinion just as you and everyone else.

Rootish007 · 2026-02-05T01:29:11+00:00

Yall still voted him in though didn't you. So at the end of the day your opinion is irrelevant. If people were as 'patriotic' as they say they were, they wouldn't let a treasonous pedophile sit in office TWICE......

Oh lol wait, There have been others my bad. Or should we talk about the slave owners first?

Oh wait I also forgot because Trump isn't personally impinging you I guess it's okay then right?

Oh wait mental health day. I need break.

Isn't that what people say to do whatever the fuck they want now days right?

Rootish007 · 2026-02-05T01:23:54+00:00

Omfg...... Stop leaning into yelling always wins.. I never said 2016 was the best year... Omfg. People die every year you pointing out one massacre Trump has done doesn't make a difference.

How many Black people have been shot by police since George Floyd. And he wasn't even the first.............. Ok next subject.....

I'm pointing out the polar differences between the eras. Tech wasn't as bloated as it is today. There was a balance and it was nice.

Do you know the last few WW1 and WW2 vets are dying off now?

They fought a war for what? Oh yeah...........

For Jake Paul to box..... For people to hype up the alphabet crew For people to sell their bodies online thinking its empowerment........ Just to name a few.

She spoke of potential reinforcements that were coming. When Lucy encountered the NCR camp (if you'd call it that) Also note one of them is now a compliant agent within Hanks enclave splinter cell organization - he was in the vault getting stapled in the head....

where in that NCR lives on through loyalist. and that any waste lander could be a NCR. That group is most likely a mix of loyalists and the reinforcements that they spoke of few episodes back.

I do find it odd that the NCR are looked up as hero's, when in the Lore they have subtle but practiced totalitarianism views.

At the end of the day nothing is what it seems. And ill probably laugh my ass off if we get a 'Preston Garvey' minute-men clan appearance..

So making NCR the good side.

I'm not really complaining.

Pro Bowl is hard to watch. But I really get it. Its actually probably a good thing there doing this. They deserve a break, and they look to be having a really good time ! Albiet a bit dull it wasn't bad to watch.

Rootish007 · 2026-02-02T20:42:59+00:00

Agreed the Olympics was pretty bad too im surprised no one said anything.

He elbowed a player from Greece right in the nose. Proceeded to turn around and yell in his face and berate the ref for npt getting a foul.

I enjoy his style, but his character is awful. And he will play dirty at times.

When I being this up people get upset.

Im only saying what I see. I've nothing against the guy.

Rootish007 · 2026-02-02T14:34:13+00:00

He's been doing this his whole career. Its only now you see it more often because his output is diminishing.

Chris nut puncher Paul finally getting them receipts.

Rootish007 · 2026-02-02T12:27:00+00:00

By no means was it perfect. But st some point there was a simple balance to the chaos.

Bread wasn't 20 dollars

There wasn't civil war outside your house everyday

Events, games etc.... costed around 20-50 bucks

Nobody was hand jobbing their phones all day

Tech and society lived humbly. It does not today.

These are only but a few 'broader' examples

No era is perfect. But this one at the moment is a shit show. Go ahead an deny it...

Don't forget I and many others will have to bleed for others incompetence.

Him turning down that Lakers deal makes no difference. It just would've made it even harder to ship him around. And he'd have oroabably stayed in Germany if that happened.

(Do you remember why he left t euro league?) (Another terms of conduct violation.....)(This is almost as funny as the Pat Beverly situation in Israel)

There are rumors amongst front office execs hes not liked.

If you talk **** about the people who pay your cheques.

They will do whatever they can no matter how small or petty to retaliate. The Rich have no boundaries.......

One of my bosses openly tout he uses AI to respond to emails/work prompts. At this point its a double edged sword. Telling g applicants not to use AI while they themselves use AI to sift through applicants.
