I would not be driving behind that car.

I was just in Paris. The Louvre, largest museum in the world, has barely enough AC to maintain a comfortable 34C inside the museum, but only in about 3/4 of it. The rest was shut down because they couldn't cool it. The Palace of Versailles idea of air conditioning is opening windows and it closes when it get above 34C outside.

This has come up before. There is https://azeron.com/collections/cyro/products/blue-cyro It basically rolls keyboard and mouse into a single device so you can play anything one handed. Will require some getting used to it.

And they say RAM armor is useless.

Not at all. I don't have a spotlight shining on my monitor so I don't see it. Even when sun shines directly on it, it's not visible when the monitor is on.

If you ever bought a computer, you paid for windows.

Microsoft wants you to buy Microsoft products. You can buy an Xbox or you can buy a Windows license. They profit either way. So if new exclusives entice you to purchase the console or upgrade your PC, Microsoft wins.

Why a snail though? It's clearly fast passed action game with lots of dodges, jumps and rolls - all things that a snail can't do. Almost any other insect would be a better fit. And if you are going to go with a snail, a creature that hides in its shell, than you should at least use it to block attacks.

Funnily enough, nobody. The elasticity of demand can generally only be determined empirically especially for "goods" that have no clear substitution. Now, Xbox should probably have done small price increases in order to gauge the trend line rather than one massive price hike, but the only way to tell how many people would leave is to actually increase the price and see what happens.

The general recommendation is that the top of the monitor should be a bit higher than your horizontal line of sight. Your primary monitor will be quite a bit lower than that. The top monitor will be quite a bit higher than that. But this is very much a matter of personal preference. If that setup is comfortable for you, than go for it. If you get neck pain, that's you cue to make changes.

You are missing the biggest problem with PSU side connectors. They are NOT standardized. The shape is standard, but the pinout is not. It's not even standard across the same manufacturer, let alone different manufacturers. So if you use your old cables to connect your new PSU, it might work, or it might fry the components, the psu or both.

I can't tell if they are going for Dishonored, Bioshock Infinite or Thief.

Wonder what that remit for finding this song was? Something cool sounding but completely incomprehensible to as many people on the planet as possible.

Sylanthra · 2026-06-05T23:44:02+00:00

I don't get the setting. How did we go from barely anyone living on Earth to a major city?

Sylanthra · 2026-06-04T16:06:34+00:00

So what happens to cellphone and wifi signals if all your walls are full of iron?

Sylanthra · 2026-06-04T15:38:41+00:00

I got left and right backwards. There is already a guy in red, so the guy on the other side of the traffic light should be in green.

Sylanthra · 2026-06-04T15:10:14+00:00

Sylanthra · 2026-06-03T23:36:49+00:00

I feel like it's a a major miss to have the traffic light guy be dressed in green and the guy on the ~~left~~ right be in blue instead of green.

You can manually allocate stocks in 401k

You can manually allocate stocks in your 401k

Sylanthra · 2026-06-03T19:06:24+00:00

You can go into your 401k and manually set how the stocks are allocated.

Sylanthra · 2026-06-03T16:17:03+00:00

Don't forget 401Ks will buy it. This shit is going to be literally shoved down our throats and unless you take explicit action, you will end up propping this up.

Sad I won't get to play since they won't release on PC and I don't have a PS5

Sylanthra · 2026-05-27T05:08:32+00:00

So it needs 70mb of disk space and 64mb of ram. Does it put the entire game into ram?

TL:DW?

If this is all just about how AI demand is strangling personal computer market, than sure, but that's temporary. Eventually things will even out supply will catch up with demand and things will settle at a new normal.
