The mod packs just keep coming and there has been a number of interesting packs since 1.20 was released.

Its got a billion accounts its the most played game in the world ever so its surprising to find it so far down this list.

The problem is the information asymmetry, there is always another person for a fraudulent company to exploit due to a dysfunctionally expensive court system. Its why we need market level regulations and public institutions that recover peoples money and fine the organisations for their breaches. This sort of thing works a lot better in the EU than in the US due to the sales laws, the ability to return within 2 weeks, default warranty on goods out to 12 months and expectations of goods to be as advertised forced onto the retailers. They work, they need more enforcement from regulatory bodies but retailers do follow them for the most part and quickly change tune when you go to take legal action when they don't because courts know these laws inside and out.

When fake news as a concept appeared a bit over a decade ago it was all about the traditional media and the lies and narratives they formed in their articles. That same media tried to spin it as about the satire sites like newstrump and most recently their entire spin has been about social media being the cause. I think social media has caught more because its clear to see that some users are spreading a lot of misinformation and you can see others falling into the trap but really what legitimises it all is what the media does and does not platform.

They have to stop thinking that getting rid of Roddenberry's rules is the way forward, the only way its going to feel like Star Trek is that they accept the positive optimistic version of the future where there is a stronger moral basis to human action. You can do a lot within those rules but you can't do this type of movie and there are enough generic space movies like this and its just not Star Trek.

That sure is some bad framing. Nvidia is charging too much to squeeze out the AIBs or they all just want too much profit for their part in this. Either way its not that the MSRP is charity(!) its just high prices.

I don't think they would bother doing that much work at the core of the operating system. They are too busy playing with the UI and cloud integrations they don't care about the algorithms the kernel runs on and they have a better driver situation currently anyway. I don't see the route to this.

What I don't understand is why Intel was willing to lie so extensively. They knew they were going to get found out in a matter of months and that would do enormous damage to their brand. After the failures of 13th and 14th gen processors they weren't likely to be believed anyway. It makes no sense.

Mine are only 25k hours or so, around 3 years. My prior set of disks had a single failure at 6 years but I replaced them all and went to bigger capacity. There is also the power saving aspect of going down to 2 drives as well, it definitely saves some power not spinning 4 extra drives all the time.

There is another big advance on the way soon called KPAP which changes the algorithm quite significantly and will allow quite a bit less pressure most of the time and should improve the way the therapy works. All the big manufacturers are involved in machines for it and should fix a lot of the issues APAP introduced.

I sub to channels and use Youtubes recommendations and new for you to find additional channels etc but I don't watch them I use Metube and a browser plugin and download the videos to a directory. I don't get all the privacy but I also am not giving them much watch data and I can avoid the ads.

The elites have been doing very well since 2010. They froze wage increases and broke the long standing history of them raising with inflation and pocketed an enormous amount of extra profit as a result. Most don't benefit from GDP growth now, they just get poorer due to inflation further eroding their stagnate wages. GDP hasn't been a measure that matters to the average person in 14 years.

Microsoft remains convinced we want clippy everywhere regardless of how many times we have rejected these solutions!
