  • Google's plan to restrict sideloading on Android has a potential escape hatch for users

    Jump

  • If it's anything like how Windows does it, you would still be able to override it. It just gives you a scary warning and hides the option unless you click "more info" or something.

  • What kind of apps are you installing? I've never ever had any issue with installing APKs on Samsung, you just have to allow the app that triggered it to install APKs one time and every subsequent time, it just works.

  • I get where you're coming from but Doom 2016 and Eternal is quite a different game and well, Idtech are an absolutely legendary bunch of magicians that's on another level all together. They had a full compute rasterizer back in 2016.

  • The clickbait titles and thumbnails destroyed most of the interest I had in their videos but at that time, it was clear that they were pivoting to a more typical less enthusiast-level audience. I still found some of their occasional videos somewhat interesting but the increasing hypocrisy and shit they've pulled made me stop watching all together.

  • New Valve trademark for 'Steam Frame', looks like we're getting new hardware

  • This sounds like the latency would be insane though.

  • Civilization 7 developers Firaxis have laid off an unspecified number of workers, 2K confirm

    Jump

  • Honestly that's just how Civ has been for the past few releases, most people don't get it until the typical set of 2 major expansion packs come out and eventually go on sale. The base price of the full package has always been crazy high.

  • Your Brain on ChatGPT: Accumulation of Cognitive Debt when Using an AI Assistant for Essay Writing Task [edited post to change title and URL]

  • Well that's why u was asking for an example of sorts. The problem is that if you're just starting out, you don't know what you don't know and more importantly, you won't be able to tell if something is wrong. It doesn't help that LLMs are notoriously good at being confidently incorrect and prone to hallucinations.

    When I tried it for programming, more often than not, it has hallucinated functions and APIs that did not exist. And I know that they don't because I've been working at this for more than half of my life so I have the intuition to detect bullshit when it appears. However, for learners they are unlikely to be able to differentiate that.

  • Could you expand with an example because what you said is too vague to really extract any point from. I'd argue that if it gives you wrong information, doing something wrong is worse than doing nothing.

  • Cool, maybe I'll give it a shot again sometime

  • When I tried it a few years back there was this really strange field of view and input lag that felt really clunky when moving around the world. Anyone knows if that's been fixed?

  • Intel faces investor backlash for selling 10% stake to Trump admin at discount

  • Apple doesn't really exist as a competitor for a number of industries and use cases due to not officially supporting anything other than OSX so I'm not sure if they're a fair comparison here.

    The only real edge they have is in non-gaming related consumer workloads.

  • Google will require developer verification for Android apps outside the Play Store

  • I sure hope not, it'd mess up corporate deployments and all too.

  • Another article did mention that it's only for devices with Play Protect enabled so if they keep that as easy as it is to disable right now, it'll be a non issue actually.

  • But if you ever wondered if the xbox one reveal event would have gone down a lot better today... just look at how confused people are over what the hell they are even buying from the big n.

    As someone that's always been using Steam, I really didn't understand the issue with it either.

  • Why am I using an Android device then? Also how would this even work with open source apps that people build from source?

  • China cut itself off from the global internet on Wednesday

    Jump

  • I play in SEA and see the reverse. I don't think most China players are connecting to Oceania servers, they're far more likely to connect to Asian servers since the data centers are usually in Taiwan, Singapore and Japan which are much closer to China.
