Most artists I know never had a problem with other artists learning from them. But they do have a problem with corporations training on their data without any sort of consent and then selling a product that takes away their jobs, they never agreed to it and they never would have shared it to them.

Incredibly cheap. What harness/orchestrator are you using?
Unity had the same in its license. But they changed it without notifying and when you updated the engine the new license applies even if it's a minor version so Unreal can do the same thing.
I just look for ones with a rk322x chip and use this image:

I have an android TV using armbian with a nextcloud instance, transmission, pydownloader, radarr and sonarr. I have another running a quake 3 server. They are cheap raspberry pi alternatives with a nice case and a very good power supply using 12v instead of 5v, which is more stable.
Re:ElonJet – Account Suspended on Wednesday December 14, 2022 @08:48AM (#33983398)
You can't say that after the same Elon bought Twitter for 55 billion. If he can get that money using his stock as collateral then he does have it in cash.
> First, none of our policies have changed. Our approach to policy enforcement will rely more heavily on de-amplification of violative content: freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach.

They recently unbanned many controversial accounts based solely on Twitter polls. Who do they expect will believe these statements?

Re:Sony to begin plastic packaging phase-out next year on Tuesday November 08, 2022 @09:29AM (#33519309)
They imply none.

“Instead of plastics, we will mainly use paper, and a so-called 'original blend material' made from bamboo, used paper and squeezed sugarcane fibre,"

It's false advertising whether nannyish or not.
This reminds me of that time a guy on Reddit found a tracker on his car and ended up being FBI's.

Exactly, it means we won't throw you in jail using the state. But Musk argues otherwise, that Twitter must let people use their platform to say whatever they want. And at the same time, people working for him cannot say whatever they want about his company.
Re:A dirty dish by the sink can be a big marriage problem on Wednesday April 13, 2022 @04:57PM (#31020166)
He dismissed her feelings, she did communicate that it annoyed her but he thought "it shouldn't annoy her, it's really not a big deal". He tried to reason about her feelings from his own and came to the conclusion that he was right and she shouldn't feel the way she did. And that kind of thinking surely doesn't stop with dishes. He must have done that on all aspects of their relationship
One thing I thought regarding the new iOS IDFA rules is that someone could fingerprint people by using accelerometer and touch gestures to create some sort of new IDFA shared across apps.
The same could have been said about AMD 7 years ago. Then Lisa Su came.

I would wait some time until more software and os projects gets native support and kinks are ironed out.

I don't know your workflow but maybe some dependency in your pipeline has issues and then you are in a world of pain trying to figure out why.

I always like to compare Silicon Valley to The Big Bang Theory. TBBT seems like a parody of the stereotype of the people they are parodying while SV is a true parody. I'm always thinking "haha, that's so true" when watching SV, but never while watching TBBT.

That would be extermely complicated and would require additional support from every game. Streaming right now takes every frame, compresses it and forwards it, as simple as that and works for everything.
Re:The Technology Behind A Low Latency Cloud Gaming Service on Sunday October 02, 2016 @01:21PM (#12623307)
The cost you are talking about is only for physics and logic in multiplayer games, it doesn't apply to single player games. And even then it is negligible compared to the biggest cost in gaming: rendering. Prediction requires rendering being done on the client, which requires a hefty video card and defeating the purpose of streaming.

Prediction requires full game emulation on client, defeating the purpose of streaming.

Yeah, they are really conscious on performance which is one of the worst parts in Unity.
Re:Unreal Engine 4.7 Released on Tuesday February 24, 2015 @04:41PM (#9103721)
I don't know compared to Unreal but Unity has several hidden performance issues. I am currently working on Bullet Boy [1] and we had several obscure problems that you have to fix with a lot of trial and error. Specific combinations of components and attributes can cause frame rate to drop because of the internal organization of the engine (moving colliders without rigidbodies comes to mind).

That being said, it is really easy to use. The asset pipeline is great and artists learn to use it very fast. It works really well for small teams.

My recommendation is that you should consider it if you are not planning to make a very performance intensive game.

Women don't use pockets, they use purses. Even most pockets in tight jeans are fake. That's why the first Note was a big hit with older women. Big screen was easier to read and it didn't make a difference to their purse.
Re:Apple is shutting down OpenNI on Wednesday February 26, 2014 @05:19PM (#7308496)
What does OpenNI and desktop augmented reality apps have to do with the iOS app industry?
That's not true. I've worked for a company that makes banking software and we did tons of migrations. The company itself changed its own software from RPG in as400 to windows forms and now it's all web with servers in Java and .Net (they use a middleware language which generates in every new platform). They even made a transitional install for one branch of one of the most important banks. The branch used my former company's solution for a few years until they could use their own software, which had to be adapted for the new market.

Banks used to work on paper an did fine, software migration, although can take some years, is no problem for them.
