>>108413309
Depends entirely on the game and the resources available on your machine. In theory, all of that should be swapped out of memory and have low background priority when your game is running, but in reality most modern software has bad manners and will do inane shit in the background if your OS lets it.

If you have some video open in a browser then it can mess with your monitor(s) in various ways, such as HDR and refresh rate.

The press needs to stop covering events using their fucking iPhones, or any other camera that uses AI up-scaling. I've seen too many stupid conspiracies popping up because the AI up-scaling is fucking up the footage and photos. This has been a known issue for years now and it's only going to get worse now that everyone is starting to look for common mistakes in AI video to look for shit that is fake and gay for the sake of psy-ops. At this point if they keep using AI up-scaled footage it'll be impossible to ever figure out what's real.
At this point off the top of my head I'm pretty sure the Kamala plane no crowd reflection photo, the Charlie Kirk assassination ring video and now the Benjamin Netanyahu six finger video, have all been the fault of iPhone up-scaling, and I'm getting tired of nobody knowing about this or pointing it out. The more these hardware manufactures rely on AI up-scaling to make up for shitty lenses and cut costs the worse this problem will get too.

Not an issue on my Sony Xperia phone
Still got headphone jack, SD slot and full screen with bezels.
If only GrapheneOS was compatible it would be the almost perfect phone, only issue is lack of removable battery

>>108388306
Are we just sandbagging the fact that at best AI is immediately going over pictures the second you take them, and at worst just scraping all visual data when the camera is active???

Buy a Canon IXUS70 or any digital camera from the 00s for that matter and you will realise how fake and gay smart phone cameras are. The post-processing makes everything look synthetic.

>>108411914
Now you can see the difference. The phone auto exposes and makes surface details visible on the moon. Then after the photo is taken, AI slop processing takes place.

Perl modules shipped with the distro are of sufficient freshness and quality to suit whatever purpose the distro needs them for. The same goes for the Perl version and build flags.
You should not be using the distro builds of stuff for your own projects unless you're a developer for said distro (which 99% of developers aren't). They are not intended for your projects. The distro will not consult you when they decide to ship a new, incompatible library (or module, or interpreter) in a future version, and your shit will break horribly. They will not ask your permission to remove a module from their repos.
It doesn't matter if you program in C or Perl or Python. The distro does not build libraries for you, never has and never will.
If you publish your projects for others, they WILL be using different OS versions with different sets of libraries. Your shit shouldn't break just because their DISTRO uses a different Perl for its own internal purposes. You should either bundle Perl with your project, or require a specific Perl build as a dependency, or test and validate your project against that specific build on that distro and whitelist it.
Many developers don't understand this basic principle and then blame Perl (or Python, or OpenSSL) when it doesn't suit their project, despite their own misconceptions having caused the issue.

Completely agree about learning from the remaining gems of that generation left but we have to make something else that doesn't suck, what that looks like I don't know but probably involves some evolution of silicon valley plus open source culture plus whatever political vibe we need to ride at the moment.
tl;dr evolve to retvrn

Huh, this thread was the last thing I read before going to sleep, and I ended up dreaming that AI had kidnapped me, injected me with something and was keeping me in some sort of testing facility. Then I was running through the streets of some place in India while hordes of Indians either stared or chased me. I was trying to call an Uber, and the driver was Indian too, which I thought ironic.

Most of the ones that are left have no clue about the current state of thibgs and all they can tell you are old battle stories. Things already sneed and feed as hard as rhey can.

I work there as a software dev. If you're a new hire there in this day and age, you should be able to get a few years of stable employment at IBM at the minimum. Work life balance is good and IBM tech stack is not necessarily boomer or outdated.

you know all you need to do is meet people. Being stuck in a room 24/7 is not how you get a relationship started. For me it was gardening and joining the local community and making connections. Its awful 90% of the time but you have to put up with it...

I live in France, I still don't know who stole it because to enter the building you need a card then to get on x floor you need access to it (multiple companies in the same building)
It was a white majority workplace too, 90% if not more were white (and boomers mostly)
It was my first "job" (apprenticeship) and happened 2 months after I joined, quite an experience
