The point I'm making is that the "fire" is a classic example of speech that isn't protected in the US, but with this ruling there's no way to prove intent. So what if I sat down and continued watching the movie afterwards? I just got over the delusion. And someone with tourette's would probably apologize, try to calm people down, or even avoid a theater altogether. I'm pretty sure that someone with a peanut allergy can't sue a peanut farm if they go visit and sample the produce; if you know there's an extra danger for you specifically in performing an activity then you are responsible.

Not to mention tourette's could never cause targeted, violent, electronic-message based harassment either. This is a focused, intentional action.

Completely insane ruling. Wild that Kagan went across the aisle for this.

the First Amendment requires proofs of mental state

So I guess it's basically impossible to convict anyone of anything involving speech? If I yell "fire" in a crowded theater, how can you prove I wasn't having a delusion that there was a fire? Maybe there was an explosion in the movie and I was so immersed I thought it was real!

Dude had previous convictions and spent years doing this harassing, it's not like this was an isolated mental break. Truly insane.

Doing some quick searching, I don't think SAM (AMD's name for resizeable BAR) is available on the 5000 series, just 6000 and up. You'd need an AMD CPU as well.

I've been running a 6700XT with an Intel CPU and it hasn't been bad, but not great either. I've had trouble with the most recent graphics drivers; I tried to update in May and had to deal with a bunch of blackscreens before finally reverting to November's drivers. Luckily AMD has old drivers available directly on their website.

Messing with the GPU's performance settings within Adrenaline (AMD's version of geforce experience) is also super buggy, only working for a few hours at best before crashing and reverting. I'm talking anything physical, from overclocking to just increasing ambient fan speeds. Their bug reporter is also terrible! Changing render settings for specific games has worked fine, as well as deactivating the ingame overlay, but while I think you should play with it just to see how it works for you, I can only recommend using Adrenaline as a temperature monitor.

At the end of the day though it's not much buggier than my ancient dual 680 setup was lol, and it's like half the price of Nvidia stuff so I'd say you probably won't regret the purchase

It seems like a deliberate attempt to cause trouble and a federation debate to me. All that nonsense belongs on exploding-heads where it can be easily ignored

If you say so. I have also spent my fair share of time looking at the autogenerated captions and I'd say that on average, every other sentence is mangled in some way that makes it nearly impossible to understand. Maybe it's better than nothing if it's a video that someone really has to watch, but in general I think the existence of the autogenerated captions makes creators less likely to handle it themselves since they feel like it's already covered.

if it's anything like their ai-powered subbing, itll be almost completely useless. it'd be one thing to have an ai read out user provided subs, but this article says the ai is gonna do the transcription too so lol gl

I don't wanna celebrate deaths, but it is wild to me how much of a story this is compared to, say, the boat full of migrants that the Greek government purposely allowed to die.

Those migrants were simply people seeking a better life. They deserve far more in terms of coverage and rescue efforts than a couple of rich aholes who spent their money on a tourist trap

Imagine thinking Linux users go outside

i give it 6 months before they make api changes, break the addon, and never fix it

God is watching you! From the corner. With a handful of lotion.

I also tend to use Windows for gaming just because I'm too lazy to worry about potential compatibility issues, but depending on your machine you might find it useful to get some extra performance out of your games. Back when I played competitive TF2 on a junky old desktop I got way more consistent framerates with Ubuntu. (Wouldn't recommend stock Ubuntu these days, it's very bloated)

And supposedly, gaming on Linux is getting better all the time, especially since Valve released Proton and SteamOS. Like I said, too lazy to try it myself, but I've only heard good things. Maybe once they finally discontinue Win10.
