I still have one of those and can confirm, it’s still an amazing sound card!

I remember that leak. I installed it and it was a buggy mess. The only thing I remember from it was that the minimize/maximize/close icons on a window turned from black to blue if you hovered over them.

That’s it. I’m unsubscribing from this c. Fuck that face.

This isn’t a good thing. Now that it’s a federal crime, he can pardon it.

I subscribed to uplifting news to escape this idiot. Can’t go anywhere without seeing that stupid orange face.

EA recently open sourced several Command and Conquer games.

Wealth concentration and decentralization are completely different things.

Also if mining isn’t profitable, then why is the hash rate going up?

I remember one way a program would detect the presence of a debugger was to rely on the fact that cache memory was write-through, not write-back. This would modify the code in memory, but not in cache. When a debugger comes along and you step the code, the cache would get flushed every time so it would load the modified version and execute differently. This technique would fail with the advent of write-back cache support. So later 486’s and pentium onward could not run those games.

The Pentium Tillamook 266MHz mobile cpu can be modded to run in some desktop motherboards and can be overclocked to almost double its original speed.

Games in 1994 cost on average $60. That’s about $128 today. The cost of production of those games was at most a few dollars more in materials. Not nearly enough to explain the price difference. Games were simply more expensive then than they are now.

Best you don’t look up Super Nintendo prices then. ;)

Because United Health Care is using AI to deny claims.

Funny how they write “name of sodium (Na)”. I mean the abbreviation is right there…

The animals that used to eat out of it probably thought “what the hell kind of trough is this.”

Under the currency reforms enacted by Roosevelt, the federal government owns the gold and holds it as security for $11 billion in gold certificates issued, in book-entry form, to the Federal Reserve Banks. The Federal Reserve Banks use these certificates as a small fraction of the collateral for Federal Reserve Notes.

I’m curious about what, exactly, America will do with a strategic reserve of Bitcoins

The same thing they do with their strategic gold reserves.

LLM’s will never achieve much higher than that simply because there’s no reasoning behind it. It. Won’t. Work. Ever.

That has to be the most annoying auto play video ever. Can’t pause it and can’t get rid of the overlay.

The situation won’t be resolved until Russia has truly been broken or Ukraine has nukes. They will not stop until they have what they want at any cost or they perceive Ukraine as a credible threat.

Long range missiles are great, but Ukraine needs to really break them or they will just keep going.

It’s also a picture of Vancouver, Canada, so it’s wrong on all levels.
