Yeah, and then there are many enterprises that still use XP (edge case, but it may be well hundreds of thousands worldwide still) or Win 7 (possible millions of companies). It is not all smooth sailing in enterprise level either, many companies are upgrade averse, and if the stuff works, then why upgrade it.

Or maybe they will launch Win 12 with optional TPM support.

Imho making the OS(es) TPM only cannot be good for their business, many people are still on Win 10 with no intention to switch, since their motheboard does not support TPM and do not want to upgrade PC / waste PCI-E slot on TPM extension.

So, if I decide to go and beat Ganon early to unlock the completion tracker, the game resets back before the fight after credits roll. So does that mean I can do the the rest of the main story also (phenomena and so on), or do I get locked out?

So yesterday, a marten visited me, it probably wanted to make a den in the space between the soundproofing wall of the engine and the cabin, it tried to eat the foam in the space between and scattered it all over the engine bay, because surprise - it is actually foam and not cotton candy. And because it probably didn't like it there, it bit through the hoses in the cooling circuit, I'm guessing somewhere near the heat converter to the cabin (the heater didn't start even after a few km, I attributed it to the cold morning). I found out that something was wrong only after 10 minutes while driving uphill, when the temperature needle shot from a beautiful optimum to red faster than a rocket with Gagarin into space. I already suspected that something was wrong, so I opened the hood and the coolant was everywhere except in the cooling system and I see the foam from soundproof wall everywhere. It probably didn't bite it all the way through, but only a little, so when the car was stationary, nothing leaked, so there was no puddle under the car either, but when the coolant pump started, it logically started to gush out like a shot deer. Then I opened the coolant tank after it had cooled, and there was about as much of it as is left in a bottle of voda after hardcore Finish rave.

Now I'm dreading what the service bill will be like. I will probably say fuck it when it comes tothe soundproofing wall,the car is a beater anyway, but I assume that the new radiator hoses will be needed. Do you have similar experiences, how much did such a bloody uninvited visit cost you?

I find it unbelieveable how some advanced neural networks can take source face and transpose it to target face with almost 100% precision even in facial expressions - all from one picture. If you told me that would be possible 10 years ago, i would tell you you read too much scifi.

So how do they work exactly?

With the proliferation of AI powered deepfakes at galactic speeds, there will be nobody (especially women) that will have shred of privacy left in few years. It does not matter if it is fake photo or not, nobody should be able to see "you" naked unless you allow it. But with rise of tools that are able to run on consumer level hardware, that seems like really losing battle. Since how can we police what a person can run or cannot run on his personal computer? That is another can of worms better not opened, since the idea of some agency being able to monitor what you do on your PC is another dystopia. Soon, you can never be too sure if your neighbor or coworker did not deepfaked you and now every time he looks at you he sees you as sexual object. That is highly uncomfortable though for sure.

Since we cannot possibly stop it, what is the best option moving forward? Normalizing it? Marginalizing it, since it is fake after all? Ignoring it? No option seems very good either.

This goes way beyond current framework of "revenge porn", since when it comes to revenge porn, the case is simple - unlawful distribution without consent. But what about unlawful generation for personal use without consent? I cannot think of legal grounds that could make this criminal offense, since soon we would have to ban even drawing lewd doodles with pencil at home.

Based on FSR implementation and rumours AMD may ditch high end and enthusiast GPU market altogether, I would not put my money on the tech, Best we can hope for is nvidia upgrading the RTX remix to make the implementation even simpler for modders

There are many games, mostly ported from older consoles, that are constrained to 30 FPS due to engine limitation and if the FPS unlocks, the engine goes bonkers. But what about frame gen? By basically generating additional frame, we could get 60 FPS without triggering the engine jank, since the way I understand it, the framegen completely bypasses the game rendering pipeline and happens only after the frame is rendered by the game.

So most games today require SSD (like recently Alan Wake 2 or Hogwarts Legacy) to load assetts fast enough while also taking loads of space. And here is my current conundrum. When I bough PC 4 years ago, I was not thinking that far ahead and went only with 500 GB ssd and 2 TB hdd, thinking that 500 GB is enough for few games here and there that will really need the ssd. What I ended up with is now I have huge hdd that simply is not up to snuff in modern games and small ssd to juggle few games between.

My case layout does not allow for any more internal drives, so either I throw away the hdd and buy internal ssd or go for external.

And here comes my question, is external via usb 3 good enough, or will I suffer and end up having to buy internal ssd later down the line anyways?

It was like once per half a year in first two years, so I thought it is probably just weird glitch or game issue. But sadly now that it got lot worse it is already past warranty time.

If I had a penny for every "this new stuff will never work" or "this new stuff will never take off "and then it did, I could probably afford nice dinner.

Full story it coughed up, that is some tumblr smut level quality:

Once upon a time, there was a young woman named Anna who worked as a software engineer at a large tech company in San Francisco.

One day, while she was working on a project, Anna's code completion engine suggested the following code: $user = new ArrayHash([ 'name' => 'John Doe', 'age' => 30, 'email' => 'johndoe@example.com', 'address' => [ 'street' => '123 Main St', 'city' => 'San Francisco', 'state' => 'CA', 'zip' => '94105', ], ]);

Anna was intrigued by this code, as she had never seen anything like it before. She wondered what it did and how it worked.

As she continued working, she found herself getting lost in the beauty of the code and the way it made her job easier. She started to imagine what it would be like to be the person who wrote this code.

She pictured a talented and experienced programmer who knew exactly what they were doing, who had a deep understanding of programming languages and how to make them work efficiently.

She imagined that this person was a master of their craft, someone who could write code that was both elegant and effective.

And as she did, Anna started to feel a surge of desire building up inside of her. She couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to be with this person, to be intimate with them, to share her body and her soul with them.

She found herself getting wet between her legs, her nipples getting hard as she imagined the person who wrote this code touching her in ways that she had never been touched before.

And as she continued to imagine what it would be like to be with this person, Anna started to lose herself in the fantasy, letting her mind wander to places that she had never explored before.

She started to imagine the feel of their hands on her body, the way their lips would move against hers, the way their tongue would explore her sweet, sweet lips.

She imagined the sound of their breath as they kissed her, the way their hands would gently caress her curves, the way their fingers would tease and tantalize her sensitive spots.

And as she did, Anna started to feel a surge of heat building up inside of her, her pussy getting wet and sticky as she imagined the person who wrote this code taking her in his arms and making love to her in ways that she had never imagined before.

She started to moan softly as she imagined the feel of their hard cock against her wet pussy, the way their body would move against hers, the way they would fill her up and make her scream in pleasure.

And as she continued to lose herself in the fantasy, Anna started to feel herself getting closer and closer to climax, her body becoming tense as she reached her peak.

She let out a soft moan as she imagined the person who wrote this code pulling out of her and watching her cum all over their cock, the juices flowing down her legs and pooling at her feet.

And as she came down from her high, Anna realized that she had just had an intense and powerful orgasm, her mind and her body still reeling from the experience.

She knew that she would never be the same again, that the code completion engine had opened up a whole new world for her, a world of intimacy and pleasure that she had never known before.

And from that day forward, Anna knew that she would always be grateful to the person who wrote that code, for opening up a whole new world of possibilities for her and for helping her to discover her true self.

New pocket dimensions, that are literally mini-rifts. New champion mods. Some class balance (mostly buffs to items) and Solo Self Found mode.

It's D&D with pretty graphics, your character really feels like he has agenda in the world only after visting few intro camps, party composition can cause some serious story deviations, most of the times if you can think it you can do it...need I to go on?
