That’s awesome, didn’t even think of how useful AirDrop could be in that situation!
How’s controller support? I have a Razer Kishi V2 I bought way back when to play the Rockstar games, that’s just otherwise gathering dust.
It’s nighttime here in Australia - will load up some files and test it out tomorrow morning! 😁
Thanks for bringing Delta to my attention! I use my Steam Deck for emulation - but now, I have another rabbit hole to go down for when I need to pack ultralight!
Any obvious iOS restrictions, assuming I’d be primarily interested in SNES gaming and have local access to any/every ROM file?
The issue with “the top 1%” term is that most people can name 100+ people, so it feels as though being in that group is attainable.
Especially when you realise that in the US, there would be ~3.3m 1%’ers.
The reality is that we should be focusing on the top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1% (~330 US individuals); the top 0.0001% - if you will.
They hold outsized political and economic power; you are not part of that group, you will never be part of that group, and they can/will squeeze you for every penny they can.
Netflix’s deal/offer is only for WB/HBO properties. CNN etc. would be spun off into its own company called Discovery Worldwide IIRC.
Paramount’s hostile takeover attempt is for the whole WB/Discovery enterprise.
A quart that travelled to Europe to ‘find itself’.
Flammable & inflammable
Biannual & semiannual
Literally & literally
Looks like it’s from Dango, based on the design elements: Dango Products
Looks very similar to Dango, they have a bunch of similar metal framed, leather bound wallets.
Waluigi numba wan!
Somewhere out there is a parallel universe where Al Gore won the 2000 election, 9/11 never happened, and Donald Trump is best remembered for his multi-award winning, 10 season syndicated TV classic - $h*! My Dad Says, before tragically dying on the toilet with a hamburger in one hand and his cellphone in the other.
I wonder if this has anything to do with the r/art mod tantrum that MoistCritical covered recently?
I am assuming that’s a GTX 480 and not an RX 480; if so - kudos for not having that thing melt the solder off the heatsink by now! 😅
I drink two beers in the morning, I drink two beers at night, I drink two beers in the afternoon, and then I feel alright!
I drink two beers in times of peace, and two in times of war; I drink two beers before I drink two beers, and then I drink two more!
My friends say I have a drinking problem. A drinking problem! What drinking problem? I drink, I get drunk, I fall down. No problem!
Honestly, if you don’t mind gaming at 1080p, and keeping graphical settings reasonable in order to maintain a playable frame rate - you could be OK for a couple more years.
Otherwise if the upgrade itch just becomes too much, the Steam Machine could very well be a suitable entry point - provided that RAM model prices don’t continue to skyrocket.
I truly cannot wait for the day that the current AI bubble bursts.
Pre-COVID, when the Ethereum mining went crazy… so around the time of the RTX 2000 series? Which honestly was pretty lacklustre compared to the GTX 1000 series…
So yeah, it’s been a while!
It’s interesting to see what people genuinely consider to be bad, or maybe they just missed that word? 😅
For me, it would have to be Under The Skin; a solid 6/10 game, in a world where 7/10 is considered average!
It’s not as much a “feel-good” story as comments who haven’t read beyond the headline might make you believe:
The PIF values its total investments at nearly $1 trillion in assets, but a significant percentage of these are hard-to-sell assets with no public valuation; as a result, the NYT reports that the PIF reps have told international investors that it is “unable to allocate” for the near future.
Despite this, a spokesperson for the PIF, Marwan Bakrali, told the newspaper that it had $60 billion in cash and “similar financial instruments”.
ETA: Its not as though they’ve lost a significant chunk of the fund, but rather that a sizeable portion of it is tied up in illiquid assets that can’t be readily sold, or valued and loaned against.
Though there is some mention of some of their investments being in “distress”, so there is at least some good news?
This, I think, is the big open secret about the push for consoles to move towards pure digital distribution.
It’s easier to not have to compete against your back catalog for gamer attention, if you cut off end-users ability to access it!
Rockstar already tried something like this, when they released the Definitive Defective Edition.
It failed successfully, in no small part to the remaster being absolute garbage, but for the AAA publishers, it’s merely a small setback that they will try again in the near future.
It’s literally a laptop CPU with a laptop GPU.
Not trying to have a go at you, actually genuinely curious: Do you have a source to confirm this, or is it more of an educated guess on your part?
All I’ve seen so far is that it’s a semi-custom AMD Zen 4 6c/12t CPU and RDNA 3 28 CU GPU.
That’s because chances are, globally speaking, if English is your primary language you are likely to fall within that top 10% by default.
But the dirty secret is, it’s all a red herring.
People in the 90th percentile, hell even the 95th percentile, aren’t drastically earning more than their compatriots when compared to the Uber-wealthy at the very tippy-top. Forget the 1%, the true leeches of humanity make up the top 1% of the top 1% of the top 1% (~8K).
Hell, if we as a society just targeted those with a net wealth of over $2b USD (~2K individuals) - we’d very quickly put the fear of God into the remaining billionaires to keep their wealth in check through whatever means necessary.
