If anyone has a link to a high bitrate (or high quality) version of the show (better than YouTube, which doesn’t seem to be dealing with the fast movement as well as I’d like), please let me know!

I’ll just blanket say anything by Zachtronics and Inkle would be excellent. I think Zachtronics even used to have a way for schools to license their games out for free?

Happily, one of the answers I just saw suggests that the SSD and RAM are easily user upgradable.

Ooh, I’d assumed the RAM would be soldered/integrated with the SOC, but looking at the FAQ you’re completely right! That would be a neat option…

When did they do this before, to make it a classic Valve move?

I don’t remember any of their other products being affected by global supply chain issues before.

Is he not implying that Adobe are shooting themselves in the foot (dropping their share price) by stopping development of an animation tool that lots of people use?

Just Dance+ streaming service will become more expensive whether you purchase access via a 1 Month Pass, 3 Month Pass or 12 Month Pass.

1 Month Pass will increase in price from $3.99 to $4.99, while a 3 Month Pass will rise from $9.99 to $12.99. Finally, a year-long pass will cost $29.99, up from $24.99. These changes will be applied from April onwards.

Oh no.

To be fair, I guess my reaction wasn’t going to be positive if they contracted it out like track and trace, either.

Something I wanted this for a while ago: quickly and easily displaying two tabs during a single window share on a zoom call, if displaying two things to compare or when running a planning meeting.

So far, all planned gameplay updates for SM2 have been free - cosmetics packs are what are available for sale, and that’s all that’s in the season passes.

Your screenshot doesn’t support your text, and from what I recall they say that:

• if you put your game on sale cheaper elsewhere (but are selling steam keys), you need to have a similar (not even identical) sale on Steam at some point.
• You can’t undercut Steam’s price and sell the freely generated CD keys that add the game to a steam account elsewhere for a lower price.

That’s it. It’s actually about the CD keys, not the game itself. There’s no rule about selling the game on another store, using that store.

Found the doc I was thinking of. They actually just say “a worse deal”, so it’s not even about a lower price.

Your screenshot there seems to be quoting this page, in fact.

My point is that they absolutely don’t enforce pricing, that was something one dev said in a lawsuit and you’ll notice they didn’t get agreement from people. You’re welcome to check the documentation out, or find any other source that isn’t bad reporting based on a lawsuit that wasn’t successful?

Ahh, that’s a shame.

SK Hynix are building more supply, I thought I saw: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/dram/sk-hynix-to-spend-usd13-billion-on-the-worlds-largest-hbm-memory-assembly-plant

May be misinterpreting that, though.

I was sort of waiting to get back into it until after the December (?) performance patch - sounds like that hasn’t arrived/helped? 😩

Okay, thank you!

No worries if the answer here is “please go Google it”, but I’m curious as to what the end user has to edit?

Do they have to edit your domain into a connections file or some such, or is it more involved? I’d expect a chocolatey package or some form of installer could improve that hugely…

I thought I’d heard it (at least the original) was based on the Vietnam war, with the US inspiring the empire.

But Palpatine doesn’t really feature until far later, so it may well be a mix.

Edit: https://screenrant.com/star-wars-george-lucas-vietnam-war-inspiration-explainer/ is a start.

I think they’re saying this tech adds perceived sharpness to the upscaling artifacts 😅

Ah, sorry, I had a running joke with a friend about Leto being injected into films for unclear reasons and it escaped here. My bad.

To be fair to them, this is coming off recommendations based on The Cosmere which has an almost infinite amount of content still to come 😅

(Though obviously there’ll be more available to read overall)

In any case, the books are good enough that I recommend them to read despite them not having fully complete series.
