  • Xbox ditching hardware and exclusive games "makes sense," former Microsoft exec and Blizzard boss says, as "only a moron would continue" making consoles as games go third party

  • All 3 consoles of that generation (PS 3, Xbox 360 and Wii) used custom PowerPC cores suplied by IBM.

    Before anyone says anything, Yes, the Cell CPU on the PS3 had a PPC core paired with 7 vectorual units, so it counts.

  • China's 96-core x86 CPU taps chiplet design to rival AMD EPYC and Intel Xeon — 13 chiplets per processor provide up to 384 cores on a single motherboard, but no word on power consumption

  • They don't need to compete on a global scale, their job is to remove the Sword of Damocles hanging over the Party's head that is the control US has over x86 CPUs and AI accelerators.

    Now that they know how to design the logical blocks of both, they can focus on proccess improvements, a work that is well under way.

  • How Trump tariffs are lowering food prices in Brazil, Mexico

    Jump

  • Brazilian here.

    A year ago, the prices of food were through the roof, public opinion was against Lula and there were protests because of it all.

    Now?

    The far right is sinking faster than the Bismark, Lula is in a good position to be reelected without a run-off election and prices are going down again (we even had a bit of deflation in August).

    A lot of this has to do with The Orange Pustule's reaction to the conviction of his criminal friend Boslonaro. In the end, Drumpf is the best campaign manager Lula could hope for.

  • Borderlands 4 boss tells players "please get a refund from Steam if you aren't happy" as Randy Pitchford continues his very public crashout over the FPS's performance woes

    Jump

  • You had the luxury of 320x200 ? What were you playing on, a Cray Supercomputer ? /s

    The thing is, we keep being bombarded by promises of how spectacular and wonderful New Game X will be, just to be punched in the face by stuff that falls short of that. This emotional roller coaster has actual costs, not only in terms of money, but also mental and emotional health. Is the reason why some countries, like mine (Brazil), have consumer protection laws that explicitly prohibits misleading advertising. And yes, showing a beautiful demo on a trade show counts, to then deliver a half-assed product falls squarely on the misleading advertisement category. This means people (at least here) can expect a certain level of performance and polish from games, this being backed by law.

    Basically, is not about feeling entitled, is about ensuring our rights as consumers are not trampled by devs.

  • The eye rolling would be justified if the 30FPS was on something like a 3070 or something like that, but when the complaint comes from someone sporting a 5090, well...

    If the game runs at 30FPS on the latest, greatest top-of-the-line card from Nvidia, imagine what kind of performance people are getting from 4060s or RX6600s...

    A game that's this badly optimised is a disrespect to all gamers.

  • Bolsonaro sentenced to 27 years in prison for plotting Brazil coup

    Jump

  • In Brazil, only murder cases go to jury trial, but even then, it's very different from the US. Here, jurors can interview witnesses and there's no deliberations between them, they go one at a time to a room with the presiding judge and cast a secret ballot, simple majority convicts or not. All other crimes are decided by the judge from the bench.

    Oh, and our judges don't use gavels...

  • Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks

  • Another 80s child here. The difficulty of ganes of that era was to extend tge game duration and made them seem longer. They were designed that way to eat quarters at the arcade, the original "games as a service". What happened with home computer and console games at the time was that developers used the same paradigms for "buy to own" games that they used for arcade, thus the idea of limited lives, game over screens, high dificulty, etc.

  • AOL to discontinue dial-up internet service after 34 years

    Jump

  • Brazil. Our population density map is not that different from the US, only it's over one long shore, instead of three (four if you count the great lakes as a shore). Still, even deep into the Amazon region, like the city of Manaus, you can have 600 Mbps fibre for less than US$20.

    Size of the country of population density is not the reason internet access is expensive in the US. Greed and corruption are.

  • My country is as big as the US and we can get 500 Mbs fibre for $23, less than half what AT&T charges.

    Is not the size of the country that make fibre costs to be so high in US, it's unchecked, exploitative capitalism allowed by a corrupt plutocratic government.

  • I’m guessing chicken eggs are as popular as they are mostly because chickens are easy to handle

    There's more to it. Chickens lay lots of eggs (like a dozen) before going broody (when they stop laying and just sit on the eggs to keep them warm), so production is high. Penguins OTOH, lay one of two per season.

    I’m guessing chicken eggs are as popular as they are mostly because chickens are easy to handle

    Except that they are. Chickens that are actually raised free, and peck on insects, herbs and other stuff outside lay eggs that are absolutely delicious, and the meat is also very tasty. You can even say that they come pre-seasoned, if you don't mind chewy meat.

    The almost tasteless eggs/meat come from industrial scale farming that feeds the chickens with grain-based feedstock in large amounts, so they grow quickly. (source: my aunts raised free-range chickens for both eggs and meat. They were really tasty)
