Absolutely. I was thinking of the CD/DVD burning speeds back then. For example, I learned through trial and error that burning at 52x speed for a PS2 game often made it impossible for the console to read the disc. So I had to resort to slower burn speeds like 4x and it worked like a charm. Never got around to actually understanding the reason behind this.

iPad Pro with M4 chip boasts impressive performance jump compared to just-released M3 MacBook Air (9to5mac.com)

On raw performance might, the M4 really does live up to Apple’s promises, should deliver. Single core is up about 20% compared to all M3 chips and more than 40% compared to M2. The generational computational leap from the previous M2 iPad Pro is at least a 42% jump on single-core and multi-core.

After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year (www.billboard.com)

When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

Good guy steam. Their family sharing beta is currently a game changer for people like me whose friends have diverse gaming interests and thus, we can try out each other’s games without the need to buy them.

It was the first google image result for my model. For some reason, lemmy wouldn’t let me post without a picture

Where in the world is laptop gaming the most popular?

I feel like I see a fair amount of gaming laptops in the US but a majority of people seem to still game on desktop. I guess what I am looking for is a ratio of one versus the other otherwise a country like China might dominate on numbers alone....

I guess in many third world countries, the growing generation prefers prebuilt machines for gaming like laptops (mid-range) due to its ease of acquisition and portability. These are people who don’t have the dedicated income or the space to invest in a desktop.

Yes, yes the old “fingers in the windows” manoeuver. Quite a painful one, I must say. I have seen many such in my times. Have you heard of “feet on the windshield” trick?

This is so true regarding software. The FOSS apps present today are good enough with adequate features for daily day users like me - whether on Linux, Windows & especially Android (almost all my apps there are FOSS). I simply haven’t had the need to pirate software for a decade now.

Now games and media, that’s a whole different story. Coming from a third world country, I simply can’t fuel my gaming desires with a weak currency that even great services like steam hardly makes a difference. Therefore - sailing the high seas.

Not yet. As soon as some people in my country get to know I am registered, I am dead meat - worth my weight in gold. It’s dangerous.

It’s not the leg amputation, I believe, they considered him “as good as dead” when he went into coma. He knew he was getting an amputation. What he didn’t expect was that he would wake up to a nightmare of being prepped for his other organs to be removed.

The Seed - Aurora. Only ever heard her Runaway till recently. But this one actually made me cry. She did good on this one.

Google confirms Gemini Nano will come to the regular Pixel 8, after all (www.androidauthority.com)

Running large language models on phones with different memory specs can deliver different user experiences, so we have been testing and validating this on Pixel 8. We’re excited to provide the opportunity for more enthusiasts and developers to try out Gemini Nano, where we hope to get more feedback and see more innovation

What about pixel 7? Is it like a hardware limitation porting it to previous generations?

Im looking for a book about a girl with a magic eye on an air ship to catch magic only she can see

The book starts out with a girl with magic eye on a flying ship to catch magic sand only she can see. She has no memory of how she grew up. At the start of the journey a man destroys the ship, but safes her. During the book(s) it is reveled that the man and she herself are basically here to destroy humanity because humanity...

Commenting for later. Sounds like an interesting read.

Raced into incoming traffic to overtake a couple of large vehicles in front of me holding us all back for atleast half hour with no regards to basic lane manners.

I can still imagine the look of horror on the face of the driver whose lane I dove into. He hoped I would back down, but I accelerated more. Luckily, he switched to his adjacent empty lane in the nick of the moment giving me the opportunity to complete my overtake missing a major RTA with barely a few inches to spare.

Later, I felt deeply sad for endangering the lives of innocent people that day and have never again lost my cool while driving no matter how much of an asshole I meet on the road.

Although your situation is really terrible and I wish you are able to land a better workspace environment with a reasonable pay, I believe you missed the point of the entire OP’s question.

What's a good phone now that doesn't force ads on me?

I’m using a Pixel 6 Pro right now, and I’m looking around to see if there are any good phones. However, I have heard that there are ads in the newer flagship phones (Samsung, Xiaomi). I am willing to spend around USD$750 on a new phone, but I just don’t want any crazy ads or preinstalled apps like Facebook. Are there...

You can disable all the bloateware on any phone using an universal adb/fastboot debloater script on xda.

Does not need root access.

My recommendation is FairPhone. Check specs before buying. It’s only a mid range CPU.
