It has yes, however the techniques Carmack used in Doom’s engine probably don’t have much of an impact on something like Cyberpunk 2077.

Am I the only one who thinks protesting against your employer and causing a disruption in your workplace is a FAFO scenario?
There was that woman a few years back (in the olde tymes, before the pandemic) who decided she wasn’t going to do her job when LGBT couples applied for marriage licenses. Everyone with an IQ over 80 rightly called her out for her bullshit.
This isn’t really any different. You can’t support employees who exercise their individual freedoms to protest against an employer only when the cause is something you agree with.
Right, it needs the NPU because the data is stored and processed locally. Guess what, your computer/OS already knows everything you do.
Yet another nothing-burger for the internet to rage about.
I don’t use Windows for other reasons, but every useful application I use on a daily basis has some sort of history. Browsers remember pages I’ve visited, my editor has undo levels, terminal has a searchable scrollback buffer, my shell can recall pretty much every command I’ve ever run.
And yet none of them work together. I’ve been thinking about Recall though, and I think the only use case I would have would be to have it summarize my daily activities on a work machine. Quite often I join morning standups, or a standup after a long weekend, and I’m like “wtf did I do yesterday?”. I’d love to have an AI remind me I spent 3 hours on Teams dealing with a co-worker’s issue, or how long I spent researching something in order to reply to an e-mail.
Or when you notice you have a follow-up meeting on your calendar and you’ve completely forgotten what the action items you were supposed to handle from the meeting 2 weeks ago.
Basically there’s a ton of QOL activities computers could be doing that require some sort of artificial intelligence to index and retrieve in order to be useful. That involves allowing some sort of local AI access to that data, but as long as the crowd of smooth brained luddites keeps whining that goal is getting further away…

Have you looked at the list of affected countries? Are you really that upset that these titles aren’t available (for purchase) in places like Haiti and Afghanistan?

The amount of self-hosted AI integrations is only going to grow as well. I have a 3090 in a closet PC and I use it for everything from image generation to VSCode/Neovim code completion and code chat. One of the things I’d really like to see in the next few years is a wide variety of local AI driven self hosted Alexa replacements.
And here’s my response to Helldivers 2 fans:
"Eat shit you whiny, entitled, rage-bait eating bastards.
I’ve looked at the list of places where PSN is supported. 73 countries covering the major markets in most of the world, and it’s not in places where local laws and regulations, or the cost of doing business, or just the political climate make it unfeasible.
Guess what? I don’t give a shit. So you can’t play Helldivers in Haiti or Afghanistan, guess what, it’s a video game and you’ve got bigger fucking problems.
You mean I’ll no longer be able to play with people that have horrendous pings and should probably be more worried about their countries democracy than a satirical one inside a video game?
Oh no… anyways.
PSN has been around for 30 years, there’s no reason not to have one unless you’re an Xbox baby or just a real fucking crybaby. This was announced when the game launched, it was also announced that it was being temporarily disabled, and yet people still bought it. It says on the Steam store page a PSN account is required, are you all just that fucking stupid?
God damn I’m so fucking sick of this crybaby outrage culture.
I really enjoyed that game, though I definitely saw why it struggled.
Well, they really don’t like it when you call them a cunt here.
Parody is a protected form of speech.
In other news, Jack Nicholson is seeking back royalties from everyone who’s ever done an impression of him shouting "You can’t handle the truth!’
Technology bad, degens gonna degen.
I feel for the guy, between cyclists and vegans it’s a race to the bottom.
Yes but to be fair, I don’t care about my employer either. I think I’d prefer a simple e-mail rather than listen to someone face-to-face or over the phone blow smoke up my ass about how much they regret having to do this.

Right, so what is the point in bringing it up?
“Sony just released a new 150 megapixel mirrorless digital camera!”
“Cameras have been a thing since the 1800’s…”
