Is this year's Tensor an actual in-house chip or just another rebranded shitty Exynos?

Hats off to Samsung tho, kneecapping the competition πŸ˜‚

As a Portuguese, I'm quite proud of this tho I think we can still do better (or at least find a way to not get price gauged).

I was in a week-long vacation in the island of Madeira recently and was shocked by how many solar and wind farms they had, no to mention the energy generated by the sea around it. It was astonishing and at least restored my faith in my countrymen, just a bit.

I feel like the key word here is resignation. Platinum has changed from its early days and so has the quality of its output (Babylon's Fall; Astral Chain, which I loved everything about but the gameplay). It is possible that because of the capital injection/investment by Tencent, Kamiya doesn't have the same creative freedom/pull to make the games he wants anymore.

Unless he speaks up we will never know, and I doubt he will. Can't wait to see what's next for him tho.

I would honestly rather have FES than Portable, but considering they are starting from scratch there is absolutely no reason they couldn't have gotten the FES content, shove in the FemMC option and do it.

...unless the endgame is DLC, of course.

I find this fascinating, in a non-ironic way. Thank you very much OP!

Oh wow its finally out. I wonder how this performs!

Great news that it supports Mac and Linux out of the box.

Absolutely! And because this is Gen 1 of AMD's chip let design architecture, whatever isn't the high end is more of a last gen equivalent (as in near identical performance) over even an incremental upgrade.

I wonder how much longer this can go on for.

Every time AMD seems like it can hit its stride next generation (looking at last gen) they somehow make some weird, unexpected decision that kneecaps their next one (this gen).

The fact this barely keeps up with last gen is honestly disappointing. The only real upgrades this gen are at the high end of the stack which is prohibitively expensive. I guess I'll be sticking to my 3060ti for at least another gen.

You're not, I can't wait either and even out off my NG+ so I could experience the whole game over again. I'm legit excited!

Unfortunately not ALL apps. Certain apps have checks in place to detect if they were installed from the Play Store or not, and if they don't, they won't start and ask you to reinstall. I have to be careful ful which apps I update through Aurora.

It's absolute horseshit and goes against the entire open ecosystem thing but what can we do.

That being said with how ad ridden the Play Store is, I'm glad I never have to open it unless it's to open one of those stupid apps.

I mean if he indeed is a cyborg, he could actually fall under the umbrella of tech for sure. We just need proof!

My point is they shouldn't be the ones doing the auditing (or at least ordering it), it should be an outside source doing it (in this case, I guess a government entity? Or something independent from LMG anyhow).

I'll gladly admit to being a cynic, but that's because I've worked in similar work environments, quit for very similar reasons and saw nothing being done too. So it's a sore spot for me too. I can easily see my own bias in this situation.

In any case, we'll have to wait and see how it pans out. Hopefully for the best is what matters in the end.
