Oh! I have a prefix sum laying around in SIMD in Rust, I use it for bitmap rasterization for fonts. Looking at the comments I guess this isn't a popular usecase, but useful nonetheless. Doing it on the GPU looks really fun https:&#x2F

Oh god that's a throwback. I remember hanging out in the bukket IRC before all the legal debacles. I worked on MCSG and Wynncraft. It honestly was a blast slamming together patches on spigot(craftbukkit(nms))) onion; I remember writing

Ah yeah my MSFT is in a state where everything is usable except Mojang account transfers. Support was unhelpful to gracefully resolve the situation, and recommended I give up and create a new MSFT account to hold the Mojang account, which I

I was thinking the same thing. Apple berates the user quite a bit to onboard to iCloud and other services; the screenshot of the new promotion looks about in line with that. If I was a Microsoft PM I'd just pitch the menu as "Appl

This just sounds like poor planning. I believe that if the parents prepared a list of people who met the relevant criteria and sought pre-approval at local hospitals for respecting their wishes, then this would be a non-story. I assume this

Some reddit post looked at the % differences in core count and clock speed relative to each generation. It most closely fit in the spot a 4060Ti would fit in based its specs relative to the actual 4080.

You're totally right! If anything the gsutil's -Z/z doesn't align with rsync's -Z/z, and gsutil's -J/j is a better match for what rsync's -Z/z does. I added -J/j well after -Z/z wa

The original intention for most of the flags was to keep them aligned with rsync. The feature only compressed the data in flight, as opposed to -Z/z which stored the compressed version. This didn't directly align to anything in rs

I actually worked on gsutil a while ago! I added in flight compression -J/j. Glad to see gsutil is on its way out.

I said it before, A lot of people on here will happily argue that they want to own their games (Which I want too!), while also rejoicing that cloud gaming is increasing narrowing to fewer and fewer companies. Licensing is getting increasing

by mooman219 4y ago
I believe the issue is cloud gaming is succeeding for a triopoly of companies, and only them. You can not want them to succeed, but that's further entrenching their dominance. If you're fine with narrowing who can license games to

There's a lot of animosity on this thread, but I think Stadia shutting down is distressing and we should talk about that. The concept of a 3rd party game streaming platform is another foot into the grave with Stadia shutting down, and

I disagree, it sounds like if you steal a device, the best you can do is part it out because of the activation lock. That raises the barrier to entry (must be able to part out the device or add a middle man), lowers the margin per device ,
