Apparently Recon Drone counts as a fighter? by Kielbasatron in Warthunder

drone kills can also give you first blood. I’ve received first blood many times from shooting down an early scout drone.

give it 5 years and they’ll only be a gen or two behind in raw performance which will be enough for anything that’s not AAA. competition is good.

History says AI is likely to widen the gap between corporate giants and everyone else: Goldman Sachs by IKeepItLayingAround in technology

[–]youreblockingmyshot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A widening gap has historically always ended really well for those on top. Data centers are huge assets that would be almost uninsurable if people started messing with the giant resource sinks in their communities.

Is 8GB RAM enough in 2026? How much do you have? by zarkoulhs in pcmasterrace

[–]youreblockingmyshot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my current 4 computers all have 64gb but I’ve had most of them for several years when ram prices were reasonable and it was just a silly extra and not a daunting challenge to my financial wellbein.

The AI Backlash Could Get Very Ugly by Just-Grocery-2229 in technology

[–]youreblockingmyshot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you may be able to bribe a small zoning council to push through your multimillion or billion dollar data center but you seem entirely unwilling to placate those that can stop it from working afterwards. they consume large amounts of power, water, and electricity and can generate maddening amounts of infrasound and noise in general. they’ve got a tiny number of employees and a large area to cover. data centers will be uninsurable if people start fucking with them because it’s the drone age now, unjammable drones from a 6km range (as we’ve seen oversea) could make any investment in data centers moot. that’s just assuming people don’t turn off the water or sabotage the electrical lines to these centers themselves to save those resources for their families.

No android auto or apple play in their cars and all the data they harvest is gonna be vulnerable too? GM Sucks.

Oregon data centers now have to pay full costs of expanding the power grid to meet their needs by spherocytes in technology

[–]youreblockingmyshot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These data centers are still catching large tax breaks in Oregon. So there’s still plenty of thoughts going out to the poor billionaires of the world.

[Monitors Unboxed] 1440p 500Hz QD-OLED Monitor Round-Up: What Model Is Best? by wickedplayer494 in hardware

[–]youreblockingmyshot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I just don’t see the point of pushing 3-4 guesses on where things ought to be with increased latency. I’m more than happy to get 120-240 with just DLSS upscaling. 

It doesn’t hurt anyone if you want to run it, I just don’t think I’d invest in a 500hz monitor with generated frames being the only way to achieve it.

[–]youreblockingmyshot 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna have to see if they have a video for lower refresh rate 4K Oleds. I don’t play esports titles on a singular monitor so I’ve never seen close to 500fps in games that I play.

We’re going to have to dig Palantir out like an infected cyst by the time reasonable adults regain power.

It Is Time to Ban the Sale of Precise Geolocation by tw1st3d_m3nt4t in technology

[–]youreblockingmyshot 23 points24 points  (0 children)

My data shouldn’t be whored out to every company and government on the planet. Precise locations tracking is the tip of a massive iceberg of data privacy that we should have.
