At least with UDP we can avoid further doubling the stream transmission bandwidth cost, since it won’t expect acks and possible retransmissions. Great explanation!

It helps mask frame drops when turning or moving fast if the game is particularly demanding.

Had em in a poverty state 20 years ago 🤷

750 a year? Wtf is this retard smoking. Cost for land, hay storage, water, vet, and farrier. Human time cost to feed them twice a day, get rid of or spread the shit. Blanket, saddle, bridle. You’re looking at a few thousand a year minus the time sink.

People talk about filter bubbles, but there’s a nuance here: on Lemmy, you’re not being served up whatever the platform owners think you should see from an opaque algorithm. You’re going to, by default, see cesspool content. You have to choose to block it.

I would agree if my area got much snow, but it’s exclusively icy cold rain.

They’ll just say the president is lying and trying to do a power grab.

Yeah my first gaming pc was like…a crappy HP desktop with an Nvidia 6600 that I plugged in. Worked great for Age of Mythology lol

Oh yeah, I read about that! Not really ML, but pretty much what I’d like more games to have.

No no no, they have it all wrong. We should be ordering clones by the thousand from Kamino to fight the separarists.

I’m glad that many kids are into PC gaming, at least. That’s still a decent vector into computer proficiency and a little hardware knowledge.

Oh that’s really interesting; I hadn’t considered racing games as a genre to benefit from this type of machine learning. I guess I figured there’s not so much to AI there that it’s necessary, at least when we already know the “ideal lap line” for cars to follow, but yeah it gets a lot harder when considering other drivers on the track and a huge array of unique car models with their own handling and performance characteristics.

I wouldn’t mind an AI using unorthodox strategies, but yeah that’s a good point that fine tuning it to be fun is a big challenge. Speaking of “non-player-like behavior”, I wonder if AI could be used to find multiplayer exploits sooner, though the problem there is you don’t really have much training data besides QA and playtesters before a full release.

I’m not into fighting games, but that’s pretty neat! I hope the industry follows suit if people like how it works in Street Fighter 6.

I think it superficially seems inclusive because the overwhelming majority, over 90%, of Chinese citizens are the same ethnicity of Han Chinese.

It’s not like Bezos is there running anything day to day. Management could ignore him, say OK sure thing boss, and print it anyway. What’s he gonna do? Fire them? 🤷

That’s a great way to put it. After every apocalyptic near-extinction, humanity is driven further and further into darkness in the hopes of self-preservation. Ironically, at the cost of their own humanity.

The premise is pretty silly and indicates the author doesn’t really understand the history of 40k’s lore. Between real chaos gods corrupting any civilization too psychically involved with the warp and civilizations entirely unable to be reasoned with like the Necron or Tyranids, the imperium of man’s fanatical xenophobic culture is pretty reasonable. The only civilization that could have perpetually positive relations with humanity, the Tau, are on a path towards artificial general intelligence which humanity fears could lead to another near-extinction of all life.

The emperor didn’t even want to be worshipped. That only really became tolerated and encouraged after the horus heresy once he was locked away onto the golden throne, and then-fanatics had nobody to keep them in check as they pushed their own narrative.

One could argue that humanity could welcome xenos into the empire while remaining at war with the other civilizations, but I tend to think they find it much safer to not take chances when other races have natural affinity to the warp and could be vectors of further chaos corruption leading to extinction.
