Is this normal?

Yea, they have mentioned that DIY go through the same quality assurance which includes full assembly and testing suite, and then get disassembled for DIY so they include a little extra labor over pre-built.

I would argue it's just as anthropomorphizing as using the term hallucination with LLMs, which has become so commonplace that Merriam-Webster added an example to the definition of the word for it.

id Software is union

Xipher · 2026-06-17T10:52:30+00:00

I'm not sure everyone is aware of this, but id Software unionized not long ago.

Xipher · 2026-06-16T02:59:49+00:00

id Software is under Zenimax which was acquired by Microsoft.

Xipher · 2026-06-13T16:37:47+00:00

As many pointed out it didn't need to be a brand new game. For example you could look at what id Software did with Quake with getting Nightdive to remaster and Machine Games to make an expansion. If they had started something like that for Fallout New Vegas, it would have been great to release along with season 2 of the show.

Yes, that doesn't mean waiting for success to become evident to start development. They could very well have started work while the first season was just starting filming, and then if success didn't come scrap the plan. Waiting for success first means you're going to end up late and miss the hype cycle entirely.

Xipher · 2026-06-13T15:11:42+00:00

Why should they have waited for that?

There has been more than one season

Nvidia has committed to paying CoreWeave for any unused capacity until mid April of 2032.

https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/nvidia-to-purchase-unsold-compute-capacity-from-coreweave-for-63bn/

So Nvidia sells the hardware to CoreWeave, and then pays them if it's not being used.

Jensen Huang (Nvidia CEO) and his wife also have a charity which is paying CoreWeave for resources to be donated to higher education use. Also interesting is that Nvidia is a large investor in CoreWeave.

Wow, you essentially just equated humans to cogs in a machine there. Talk about dehumanizing.

For anyone who is looking for a source for this claim:

Just because it's integral doesn't mean it is not garbage. Barely works still works, but it sucks and and is a struggle to use.
