  • I also have a PS5 controller, as far as I understand, haptic feedback is not humble, it is a resistance in the triggers (L2 and R2) só a game can make pull the trigger be harder of softer depending on the situation.

    I don’t know how many or which games uses it seem how many games still does not correctly display PS controller icons and etc and fallback to the MS iconography.

    As far as I know haptic and maybe the mic/phone are the only things that does not work over BT. But I also think I read that some things that does work with BT does not work over USB




  • “I like my coffee bitter, like life”

    “If it tastes good It is not healthy”

    Just to clarify, I am not a super healthy eater. I like to use this expression when the topic comes up to point out that there is no magic and is a miserable experience to lose weight and eat better, better to come to terms with it.

    Yeah. I am not a super positive person.




  • But IIRC that is never implied in the books and it is shown a couple of times that they know very little about technology and being very surprised by stuff like television. Which is very weird given that a non insignificant part of the wizards are from muggle families and lives among muggles.

    Whilst I loved the books, as I read I always had this question in my mind about what if the wizards approached magic with a more scientific method and if they integrated with the scientific advancements of the human world.

    There is a Brazilian Rock Band with a great song named “Santa Claus son of a bitch” (or maybe motherfucker) here is the Google translate (with light editing) of the first couple verses:

    Santa Claus motherfucker
    Reject the wretched
    I want to kill him!
    That capitalist pig
    
    Give gifts to the rich
    And spits on the poor
    Give gifts to the rich
    And spits on the poor
    





  • It is sad that so much of technological advancement is not freeing people from labor has the opposite effect, making people fight to pay rent and necessities everyday and never having free time to live. There is so much to like in these new Ai technologies but they being wielded by capitalists to extract a little more money. I highly doubt that visual arts is a big expensive in movies and films since usually half the budget is marketing and another big chuck to secure big stars to the project.

    In any case everyone already lost and the Internet is a little bit worst. Reading about this class actions I think no good will come out of it, or the draconian copyright laws will be even worst and small artists will already have lost to the prior models using their content or a “fair use” exception will be made but only for big companies AI and not help small artists and content creators that battle with DMCA abuse taking down fair use vídeos from YouTube and content from over the net anyway.



  • Faster load times and/or less bandwidth. zstd is a newish compression algorithm that has being chosen in a lot of use cases because it can be turned to be faster with the same compression rate or better compression with the same processing time. For the content host it saves bandwidth or CPU time with compression.
