Does that imply BBC bias towards favoring Israel? Or is it weighted by ground truth somewhere? What I mean by this i expect there is lots of mentions of "murdered" israelis in the week of Oct 7 compared say towards the last week of November, given when the actual events took place. Frequency is not that informative without a distribution to compare it to.

I fail to understand the results, is it possible to formulate it for simple folks like me?

still obscenely expensive

I thought the prices were fine (4070 Ti Super around 699$). The issue is availability and black market prices will be the issie. Here in EU, you can't find a 3090 with less than 1.2k.

There are plenty of redundant jobs, and I believe it is important to feel fullfilment in your tasks, otherwise no motivation. One thing to note, that when companies do not upgrade, they risk being redundant and falling back behind disruptive newcomers with cutting edge tech.

I watched Nvidia pitch, and this will be aworrying trend for "offline" gamers, as to use this in-game feature, when the player speaks with the NPC, the game has to connect to nvidia servers for speech processing, and sent back to the game npc, so it's done on nvidia cloud! I fail to see how you can play such game offline.

It's very odd given that they are shilling their latest AI capable GPUs that somehow cannot handle speech processing, instead your voice will be synthized by Nvidia cloud if you want to play an AAA game.

competing to build the best ARM SoCs for windows devices

You mean desktop, and not Windows? Because if anything Windows is becoming a botnet device. I hope linux support is OOB.

What's your take on Kagi joining partnership with brave?

I feel every era had its "boogey man" issue. I doubt there was ever an era of "nothing to worry about"

Sure we can have a long debate about personal responsibility vs societal responsability. I would still argue that many people who grow up in 3rd world countries do no end up intrinsincly criminals by virtue of living with injustice. I just don't think that going full "Falling Down" mode on society is warranted in advanced democracies.

Look up the recent drama with Asus. They halted their bootloader unlockong server (which should exist) since mid-last year.

You can install proton on any linux distro. I game AAA on my arch distribution. Look into Heroic Launcher.
