because early on with home computing a typical machine has one or two floppy drives and no hard drive. you boot your os from floppy, load your software from floppy, and save your data to floppy. by the time people were mainly saving to hard disk instead the floppy icon had already become "the save icon". plenty of programs don't use a floppy disk image for saving, but it's recognisable so there's little need to change it

>>107708032
Floppy disk is not the same as flappy disk. These things got closer to hard disk like performance and capacity back in their early days by having a thin flexible flim disk like a floppy, but rotating at high speeds. Instead of making the head touch the disk like a floppy or float on an air cushion above the disk like a hard disk, it used the Bernoulli principle to draw the disk to a micrometer from the head with air currents. When it's not spinning the disk rests further from the head. This gave it an advantage over hard disks at the time, since if power is lost and the head doesn't retract in time, it doesn't crash down onto the disk. Instead the disk pulls away from the head.

Windows' file system is bad at handling lots of tiny files, which emacs relies upon heavily. In earlier Windows versions you could tweak the registry setting NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation for a performance boost (at the price of backwards compatibility), I do not know if this is still relevant in Win11.

My experience after using space for about 6 months and doom for 2 years:

spacemacs
- slow
- uses many obsolete packages
- updates often break shit
+ documentation all in one place
+ very nice setup for clojure and lisp
+ more complete keybinding setup
+ has emulation modes in other editors like vscode

doom
- documentation very fragmented and full of annoying stubs
- custom.el doesn't work right

out of all the technologies that have become incredibly homogenized over the years, why are graphics cards still so all over the place?
you can immediately tell what a 16GB RAM stick does compared to a 4GB one. But whenever you go into the system requirements of any game ever, the GPU is always something like

2 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>107706461
I don't really agree, at least for gaming purposes.
RAM sticks have long model numbers and details like CL latencies too, but you can boil it down to "16GB stick".
For GPUs, I usually just look at the minimum and recommended Nvidia cards. That immediately tells me what ballpark we're in, even if I'm using and AMD or Intel GPU.
e.g. if a game needs a 2070 and you're even slightly familiar with computer hardware, you'll have a rough idea of how your card compares to a 2070. Just like everyone knows roughly how much $100 is regardless of their local currency.
>>
>>107707187
As someone who hasn't kept up with graphics cards within the last 10 years since i don't game, I disagree with your disagreement. I still know exactly what 16 vs 32GB RAM means when I see it. I've known the difference since 4GB was the latest and greatest. I have no fucking clue about any of this 5070, 2090 whatever shit is because I'm not constantly exposed to it like you are.

When will AI will be able to create a film as good as Forrest Gump?
>>
>>107707302
i saw one where some nazis pour a white monster into a device and open a portal to agartha and hitler was there
>>
Forrest Gump is not a good movie and I don´t think there´s anybody that understands that better than me. I´ve seen it over a hundred times because my parents would force me to watch it.

The whole movie is a self congratulary boomer stroke job. It had pop culture references every 10 seconds during the life times of boomers so they could say haha I remember that.

of course the protagonist is a literal retard that becomes a multi millionaire that boomers strongly identify with

if you´re not a boomer and think this is one of the best movies ever made maybe you should learn to think for yourself instead of having your opinions fed to you by boomers
>>
>>107707469
sure but it's not capable of making a movie as good as Forrest Gump, Anaconda 6, Ninja Champion, Twilight 9 or whatever yet regardless
>>
>>107707302
Right about now. That movie was garbage. Anything that doesn't force shitskins and faggots into your visual field mogs it by just existing.

Forrest Gump was a *terrible* movie, so AI can do *better*, *now*.

Actually, a bash script to randomly go through a directory of existing videos and assemble randomly-picked bits into a movie length mess would be better than Forrest Gump!

The real win for VR(in it's current form) is in simulation and remote control not traditional vidya or shitty social media.
Zuck and co completley missed because of two reasons, they're chasing retail consumer tech which it doesn't fit with AND coming at it from the wrong direction, it's not about people moving more into immersive digital worlds it's about tech moving more into the real world that actualy solves a problem.
VR will always be a niche non-normie tech until robots become more integrated into society then they'll be using it mostly for work not leisure.

um yeah I think its safe to assume the more advanced VR headset that runs your games locally is gonna cost atleast AS MUCH as version 1
>>
>>107707411
The index had lots of custom hardware like the base stations and had good build quality
The Frame is much more cost optimized, the displays and lenses cost less to make then back then, the controllers are simpler. The additional cost comes from the CPU, RAM and UFS chip which wouldn't cost a lot if there was no bullshit market manipulation by openai
>>
>>107707669
you would be right, if there was a competitor example that costs $700-800 (other than the quest pro for $1000).
But ignoring the quest, the pimax crystal light is wired, has no battery, no OS, no passthrough, or eye tracking, similar resolution and display (but with aspheric lenses, no pancake), and it costs $860 with controllers (but the controllers are known to be worse than steam VR's tracking, and you could buy just the headset for $600 and spend a fortune on a SteamVR adapter + controllers + base stations).
I think you are underestimating how much money meta makes from kids who trick their parents to buy a $300 VR headset, for the headset to have a $10 monthly subscription so after 1 year it becomes a $440 headset.
