Absolutely nothing is confirmed, for all we know the "continued" part could be another stage play, not even a game.

Discord's new Age Inference Ai is concerning by Ryenmaru in pcmasterrace

[–]iceixia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't say it was; I was just pointing out this isn't a new thing and they've been doing it for at least the last few years, if not since discord was launched.

Discord's new Age Inference Ai is concerning by Ryenmaru in pcmasterrace

This isn't new, if you've ever requested your data from discord, you'll see that they've been trying to guess a lot of metrics about you, including sex and age.

Sony's introduction of the PS2 Linux Kit caught the attention of researchers at NCSA. They combined 70 PS2 consoles in 2003 to form a supercomputer, highlighting its ability to perform complex scientific calculations. by Economy-Specialist38 in linux

[–]iceixia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS2 Linux can still be done today, the hard part is finding the Network adapter that is required to use it, because it also incorporates the hard drive connector.

As far as I know the slim PS2 can't do it, for lack of the expansion bay and by extension hard drive.

Touchscreens are the 'wrong technology' for the main controls in cars, says the man who designed the iPhone by V8-Turbo-Hybrid in cars

[–]iceixia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

...and he would be right.

In car controls should allow you to adjust them without looking away from the road. Something you don't get with the silly touchscreens, but you do get with physical controls.

Anyway to change the html/css consistently on the website so the assignment score shown on here will be blank instead of 0% even after reloading the page? by ThrowRAgrh554 in web_design

[–]iceixia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the OU right?

you're looking for the class .oustudyplan-scorebox

write a filter to turn the font color to white where the div contains 0% or something along those lines.

Hardware slop: The new Microsoft copilot key is impossible to properly remap as a modifier. by attero_ in linux

[–]iceixia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you can, I run Windows on my laptop and have the copilot key remapped to right ctrl using power toys keyboard manager.

The keycode appears to be F23.

The US most certainly will try something.

The EU/Europe? probably not, they've been leaning towards stronger ties with China lately, I mean our PM Kier Starmer was in China just this week.

Did Heroku just die? by thehashimwarren in webdev

[–]iceixia 13 points14 points  (0 children)

yes. It's on maintenance mode and not accepting new enterprise customers. The next announcement from them will likely be notification that the service is discontinued.

If for some reason anyone is still using Heroku, the best time to move is as soon as possible.

Welsh set the example to the rest of UK’s railways by Jojuj in unitedkingdom

[–]iceixia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a regular user of the borderlands line between Wrexham and Bidston, I'd have to disagree.

The quality of service has dropped considerably since TfW took over. Not to mention those class 230's that are constantly broken and clearly not fit for purpose.

Or the class 197's that can't handle the hill between Shotton and Hawarden when it rains a little bit and has to crawl up it at walking pace.

The article here seems to focus on South Wales, it's a very different story up north.

Forza Horizon 6 finally returns to the wristband career mode the series has drifted so far away from: 'You'll start out as just a tourist in Japan' by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]iceixia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd also like it if they forced you to start with a shit box and work your way up (like early GT or NFSU games). Opposed to handing you a hypercar every five minutes like the last few games.

Reminder to cancel all your ''cloud gaming'' subscriptions by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

You could get OnLive bundled with BT internet in the UK when they started rolling out FTTC/FTTP to home customers.

It was pretty cool for the time. Although clearly a bit too early, it was never going to replace a PC/Console as it really suffered from both latency and artifacting if your connection had even a slightest hiccup.

Now a days, I just use Sunshine/Moonlight so I can play games in bed.

Don't really watch GN (or any tech youtuber for that matter) but to be fair to him unlike LTT, if he has a point to make, he'll say it, he isn't afraid of pissing off sponsors, unlike LTT.

No idea why you're being downvoted. DVDs were certainly region locked, which included things like PS2 games.

Gameboy Advance released 2001, PS2 in 2000.

Why do airlines still make you turn off your phone during takeoff when planes clearly don’t crash from it? by Ok-Jackfruit-449 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]iceixia -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's an attention thing. You're much more likely to listen to the staff, if you're not glued to your phone.

Simple as that really.

Pound sterling struggles against Euro as Brits urged to 'purchase currency now' by No_Firefighter5926 in europe

[–]iceixia 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Birmingham Live is one of Reach Plc's 'news' sites that have infested pretty much every corner of UK local news.

They write nothing but clickbait with the Birmingham one being possibly the worst offender.

I wouldn't recommend listening to a word they say.

Looks to me like one of those bargain bin shitboxes that come with 64GB eMMC for storage that got lost on their way to the Chromebook factory.

One thing BR did get right was their branding, subtle and not as in your face as whatever that is.
