I think the table turning is in terms of what constitutes “content”, ostensibly the reason you’re on their service.
Standard tables: you sign up to this website to see stuff posted by people and pages you want to see, you can post your own if you wish
New and improved AI tables: bend over and enjoy the warmth of the slop cannon interspersed with Enhanced Consumer AI Personalized Advertising Experiences™
The user abuse was always part of the process no doubt.
I haven’t been paying too much attention to most of the writing specifically in this community. I just skim All like I used to skim my Reddit home feed.
I don’t know how much carries over in terms of federation between awful and db0. But “references, touchstones and more” sounds like something I’d like to catch up on. I’m aware of the search engine being discussed in your linked thread, and I’m aware of some other initiatives, but I really feel like I’m on the outside of that community looking in.
I’ve always been hesitant about just straight up linking it. Given it’s on Mataroa it’s not like it’s monetizable (deliberate choice). Maybe I’m too averse to what might come off as self-promotion. In the age of everything being “content”, I don’t know, I almost have a desire to never share anything.
Thanks for the kind words. Since you’ve mentioned digging, I’ve now made sure to include a link to a friend’s blog (a much more interesting and talented writer than I am), in case anyone does more digging. That’s how the internet should work right?
Thanks for sharing the start to your journey. Some regional forums I was on, while virtually dead, are still online. For now at least.
Hey, I’ve been hesitant to link this account to my current blog, but I’ve linked it in my latest post and I remembered this comment. It was a nice response in a tough time, so here you go.
It works as long as you’re on an IP address that Meta approves. If you’re using a VPN (or even PiHole iirc) it doesn’t work.
So I have to use their malware on my phone when someone sends me a DM on there.
The souls games weren’t on sale, but I’ve passed the message along about the mods. I think he’s taking a break after pushing those games to the absolute limit but I’m glad something like that exists.
Avant-garde is my jam, it’s just hard to convince people who aren’t into that kind of game to play. I love the Cosmo D games, for example, but I know most of my friends wouldn’t enjoy them if I recommended them.
I went with Ultrakill! I might get it myself. I think older style graphics boomer shooters are a core part of the current wave of PC games.
Unfortunately he’s never been able to get into Outer Wilds despite it being one of my favorite games that I always shill. I’ll still push for him to play it.
Just visiting from All. I’m compelled to vouch for opening corked wine in the woods.
My understanding of the tech is that there are virtually no scenarios where having the 3D cache on the second CCD would actually help right now, unless I’ve got something wrong? Like even applications with enough threads to saturate the 3D CCD couldn’t possibly need that many threads that that
Unless you’re running multiple high-thread-count programs that benefit from the lower latency, and I don’t know what a realistic scenario for that would be. Some kind of multi-user scenario.
Granted I would have liked to see identical CCDs. I’m sure asymmetry is something they’ve figured out by now, but for the $$$ they’re asking for, a few extra overkill headroom can’t be a ridiculous ask.
