it was made during the brown = real era so the colours tend to be a bit dull. but it makes up for it in other areas. that clip doesn't do it much justice of course, it's very heavily compressed.

for me, i used to hate the driving physics when it first came out. compared to previous games i felt like it was trying too hard to be realistic and that it was at the cost of fun, but i've since grown to appreciate it. driving in gta iv is more of a skill than in previous titles and it's much more satisfying to drive fast/well in gta iv

>>106468819
(then gta v ruined it again, or rather, driving in gta v is less realistic than iv, so it feels more arcadey like the older games)

gaming companies have figured it out
playing a 4 player game on the xbox will require 3 additional controllers at $75-200 per controller, and then there's the cost of games at $60-80 a pop in addition to xbox live monthly fee if you're serious about online matchmaking
they got my brother so hard because he buys the yearly ufc, fifa and nba's at full price as soon as they're released. the playerbase migrates with the new games so if you "skip" one your strats and playstyle may be outdated if you decide to pick it up again the following year

I wish he wasn't, but he's right. Any game that packages a local model will have very specific requirements that most other games don't care about, and the LLM will be the majority of the game's size. I've researched AI in games as a concept and it's incredibly difficult to fit them in, since code is such a rigid thing and LLMs by design give any number of outputs the game needs to handle to tie AI into game mechanics. It's really difficult to make AI have any mechanical impact on the game and not just describe things or relay dialogue. And again, this is speaking with the theoretical that the AI is a local model that comprises the majority of the game's overall size. And processing power.

I did a small research (pics included) and I've noticed there's something strange happening with recent WD hard drives.

For instance let's take a look at this 4TB WD Purple (WD43PURZ), the datasheet says it's CMR but if you look at the graph it behaves like SMR and TRIM is supported.
https://files.catbox.moe/xdudsc.jpg

Same applies to 4TB WD Blue/Red Plus models, all these have 256MB cache and 181 buffer zones (like WD Red EFAX) instead of typical 61 like normal CMR WD drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/htn2k3.jpg

Look at these 4TB drives - they all look like this SMR WD Red EFAX drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/cz46vl.jpg

And 6TB WD drives are also identical to this EFAX drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/nd55ho.jpg

So WD is lying again like they did when they released their first SMR Red. Avoid all 4-6TB models, unless it's enterprise class (Gold, Black, Ultrastar).

>>106470068

Well, not exactly, because magnetic storage doesn't care about passing time even if it's shingled and it still has physical heads, magnetic platters, the translator has the info about media cache map, logical zones, used/unused tracks, trimming function which doesn't has to do anything with the written data on the platter. So it should be suitable for cold storage.

Here's the article.
https://www.radianmemory.com/about/news/smr-meet-flash/

But it behaves just like SSD despite being mechanical and being limited to execute only one operation at time hence all the slowdowns, freezes, fragmentations etc.

Also, just turning on SSD regularly is not enough, SSD requires refreshing every single of its block (preferably after making a backup) to prevent non-rewritten cells lose the charge and thus become slow or even become empty. It applies to SSDs, flash sticks, SDs as well.

So, it happened AGAIN. We can blame paper launches, we can blame scalpers, we can praise AMD's efforts but the truth is it's simply not enough. MSRP, steam survey figures, you name it, it all stinks.
Don't get me wrong, I still have full faith in Lisa Su and the lads, but MASSIVE restockings are desperately needed in September. Otherwise I'm not very optimistic about the RX 9070 GRE, or it outselling the RTX 50 Supers for that matter. Not shipping like this. What do you think, /pcbg/? #RadeIN or #RadeOUT?

IP law is effectively defunct. It exists almost purely to serve large rights holding companies that can afford large legal teams that can keep up with the pointless bureaucratic burden and it doesn't even promote the creation of new content, because the primary benefactors are entities with minimal or non-existent production, because it allows them to keep pursuing bureaucratic maneuvering while simply acquiring the rights from failed companies, sometimes even companies that got embroiled in successful legal battles with them.
The end result is that on the consoomer side everything becomes advertising or some form of private equity, producing nothing, but squeezing their existing investments instead.

>Every time I think of a project I imagine something like a long list of imperative statements
I didn't stop doing this until I started working on much larger projects.
Because in all honesty, a series of imperative statements is probably the most efficient way to write simple programs, so it's natural to start out that way and hard to see the value in doing anything else. But that flips around when the project becomes very large and complex, and the need for other methods is not only clear but almost necessary (try doing imperative programming with multi-threading and see how quickly you run into race conditions).
The shift in thinking is that you stop asking what the next thing your program needs to do, and start asking how to make the code you're writing re-usable and scalable to arbitrary complexity.

>>106457902
>I'm trying to learn lisp from a C background
Maybe you can start super simple by writing a Unix-styled filter that consumes stdin and produces results on stdout. Unix shell script hackers may not realize this, but all that piping and filtering they're doing is pure functional programming. I think this may be a good way to dip your toes into functional programming from a (hopefully) familiar setting. (I'm hoping your C experience has been on some kind of Unix. If not, sorry.)

Have you decided which lisp you're going to use?

Interesting insight.
I think in one previous post some months ago this topic of music composition was brought too.
I remember having read some great articles on the software used.

one by one, web sites stop working with the following:

Windows 7/8 (both have same level of support)
Linux kernel 4 compatible environment (Kernel 5+ will work)

Kernel 4 issues:
-GUI doesnt work (you need pieces of Gnome or KDE to make the important browsers work)
useless browsers will work no matter what but you cant open those web sites which recommend using Windows 11
-you cant compile new browsers ontop of Kernel 4 compatible environment anymore

Even if you try Kernel 5 on top of old environment like Slackware 14.0. You cant get new enough GUI to run in it

Text browsers are useless even when they work.

Hi good people. My name is gurman. I came here because I seek help from the community of 4chan. I was got scammed for more than 8000 CAD this month. I am really stressed and depressed because of my this loss and just feeling like I should suicide. It was crypto job scam where they said I can earn money by completing tasks everyday and can earn commissions from doing that. It seemed like actual company as it has its own website, I even did research on it and it seemed a legit one. The name of the was Impact.com and because of that I got manipulated. I lost my money as they told me that in order to complete some tasks I need to spend actual money, previous I was able to deposit my money on my bank account and due to that I trusted them. And because of that I gave them the amount. I was a fool I know and they used it. But they left me with nothing. I am an international students and I already don't have enough money and my fees is coming ahead. I am feeling so ashamed that I think I should do suicide. And because of that I came here for help, I just want a IT person or hacker to hack their website and can release my money. I will reward them for their work. Or I can get the location of their operations. I have all the contacts number and the website link. Pls mail me on gurmanbrar1717@gmail.com. if you can help me please.

Thank you so much
