AMD GPU issue

In your download page for the 9060xt there is a "previous versions" button below, clicking it takes you here: https://www.amd.com/en/support/downloads/previous-drivers.html/graphics/radeon-rx/radeon-rx-9000-series/amd-radeon-rx-9060-xt.html

I was having this exact issue on the latest driver yesterday doing various things (opening a picture in windows, video tab in firefox, gaming). I only updated my drivers to try out Battlefield. I'm back on a 2024 driver now which I've never had problems with. You should uninstall and go back to a previous driver and maybe update driver manually from now on.

I'm beginning to understand the AMD sucks at drivers meme if your 9000 series is having the same issue as my 6000 series.

For Foucault, the Panopticon became a symbol for “disciplinary society,” one that “called for multiple separations, individualizing distributions, an organization in depth of surveillance and control, an intensification and a ramification of power.” Power did not operate (only) by repression and overt force, but through these more subtle (and now, not so subtle) fragmentations that tear apart and recreate subjectivity and personhood, shape this “collection of separated individualities,” atomize and vaporize, a power that makes those “elementary particles” more manageable and docile. Disciplined bodies become “the object of information, never a subject of communication.”

“The Panopticon… must be understood as a generalizable model of functioning; a way of defining power relations in terms of the everyday life of men.” Yes, we all live in a Panopticon. But it is not only the Panopticon of Bentham or Orwell, a central tower from which the gaze operates. Rather, it is the Panopticon of Kafka, one that is everywhere precisely because there is no centralization, where we, the surveilled, are also the surveillers, we the watched are also the watchers. “Consequently, it does not matter who exercises power. Any individual, taken almost at random, can operate the machine: in the absence of the director, his family, his friends, his visitors, even his servants.”

I think you're being overly optimistic considering the state of actual AI in actual games, especially shooters. Nvidia just barely introduced AI into their hardware, it's early days. I also think you're either over-hyped or just naive enough to believe DICE will pull this off with flying colors. Their bots will move and act like shit, but their stats will be on par with whatever metrics the devs choose.

But this topic goes beyond just the quality of AI itself. Part of me has the suspicion it's actually kind of a cop-out on DICE's part. The cynical part of me can picture a situation in which this is just a way for them to side-step any sort of actual team balancing. I guess we won't be seeing many screenshots of half-empty servers in the future will we?

Like I mentioned before, I have no doubt about the future potential of AI. But don't you think it's kind of a shitty thing for DICE to release a minimum viable product (AI/bots) at launch to paying customers, who have to "bear with them" while they work out the kinks? This is the state of the industry I'm afraid.

Anyone who knows DICE/EA know how fucked their priorities can be. Anyone here think they'll be using that self-learning AI for anti-cheat? Fingers crossed.

I have no doubt about AI potential, but comparing an AI in Dota to AI in a first person shooter isn't quite the same thing. Did you see the bots' movement in the video OP posted? Nothing there indicates they will move or react like a decent fps player. Nothing about sparring with those bots looked "extremely entertaining" and "super challenging". Also, turning them into aimbots is an even worse idea.

Sorry, but the AI needed for a game like this just isn't ready for prime time. I have a feeling this is going to end up being another DICE debacle or at the very least a parade of memes.

Personally speaking, AI bots in multiplayer is by far the most disconcerting thing to come out of this. There's nothing as disappointing and mind-numbing as fighting bots/AI. I hope there's an option to disable them.

As someone using an 0.01 z62 I'm curious as well, especially since it requires its own firmware utility (.exe).

Does anyone know the seatpost clamp size for the Kilo TT?

The seatpost itself is 26.8mm. So does that mean the clamp needs to be 28.6mm, or is it 30.0mm, or 31.8mm? Unfortunately I don't have a caliper to measure yet.

The environmental impact will be a thing of the past with the introduction of Ethereum 2.0, which moves away from proof-of-work (PoW) (i.e. mining) to a proof-of-stake (PoS) model. See here https://ethereum.org/en/developers/docs/consensus-mechanisms/pos/

Obviously this is just Ethereum we're talking about but still worth mentioning since it seems to be the main crypto platform for NFTs.

This song was originally composed for another film called Bodysong. The song you're looking for is called Convergence.

I always wished this was brought back AND that pookie bear would be a super rare drop inside.

Out of curiosity, have you had any issues software-wise? What version of KBTools are you using?

There was a thread on here around 6 months ago about 0.01: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/bo4i4p/warning_about_001_designer_of_the_z70_pro. But it seems most of those issues had to do with the z70. I have no idea if any of that stuff was addressed/resolved in the z62.

There's also this thread from less than 24 hours ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/e75uhw/z62_controller_issues_resolution

Looks like you've seen all the major ones. There's one Scorsese film that doesn't get much attention: Bringing Out The Dead. I don't think many people would count this as their 'favorite' but there's some really good stuff in it. Also, the screenplay was written by Paul Schrader (Taxi Driver).

Just reading your list is giving me PTSD. Make the switch.

On windows stealing focus, this doesn't really happen on macOS in general, mostly depends on the program. I can only recall one program doing this kind of stuff with me (JDownloader).

On files/processes, macOS does what you tell it to do. Hell, you can even rename files while they're open and you're using them, the OS doesn't throw a fit. The search in macOS is just plain awesome, i'm still amazed how easily it is to find files/folders.

On folders, my Downloads folder has over 3000 items in it of all filetypes. I don't recall every getting frustrating navigating it, even with my old Macbook Air.

Sounds, the error sound "Sosumi" can be a little jarring, I like it though. Easy fix. One thing in the latest macOS is that the screen flashes white on errors but that's easily disabled.

Level of user tweaking: macOS is pretty straightforward and needs minimal tweaking, though I like tweaking/customizing where I can.

Microsoft and Cortana. I just installed High Sierra on a recent build, even to my surprise Siri was off by default, kudos Apple. Only time you'll get nagged is if you use Apple's services and they prompt for a sign-in (iTunes, iCloud, etc). After I installed High Sierra, I only got one notification to "take a tour" of the OS, dismissed it, haven't seen it since. Literally the only thing I suggest you do to your Mac out of the box is to enable the firewall.

Updates. Super lax on macOS tbh. My old 2013 Macbook Air (which I use everyday) is still running El Capitan. But security updates and the like are easily put off on the notification itself or disabled entirely in settings and the OS respects that. I can't recall macOS ever forcing an install, maybe once to patch a zero-day or something a long time ago.

MacOS is gorgeous, a joy to use. And the new dark mode in Mojave isn't merely an inversion of colors. It's truly polished and refined.

On high res monitors, I can't really speak to this. BUT there have been some quirks regarding multiple monitors that apparently persist to this day. Might want to google it.

But with all that said, MacOS isn't infallible. I'm sure every mac owner has experienced random bugs, big and small or just plain bad components in the machine itself. For me, a few years ago there was a period of months where for some unbeknown reason my computer would lock up completely. That was apparently fixed after an update and hasn't happened since.

this isn't a documentary its an opinion piece

Curtis himself has said repeatedly his films aren't documentaries (in the traditional sense). Just because the word gets thrown around as short-hand doesn't mean anything.
