  • Sure, if they had created for example a 'second life' clone with a very lax custom content policy it would have drawn in the pervert community to build their dream harem / larp orgies AND the house builder / interior design community AND the second life larper community.

    The question is, if big companies would still have wanted to advertise there. At least the virtual land would have been a bit more interesting.

  • I mean, it was doomed from the beginning. There was no vision, no problem to be solved, no benefit for the user.

    Why would the world need this VR space? For meetings or chats? We have virtual meetings and this adds nothing of value. For games? The graphics are bad (to allow more people to use it) and there are better VR games. For companies to advertise? You would need something to get people to go there.

    They should have created a benefit for the user first and if that is successful add more.

    They could have started with a Sims clone or a WOW clone to get people interested and invested before adding the rest. Selling virtual land only makes sense if it's worth something.

  • Convenience is relative

  • One is a 6 month travel vacation, the other is 5 hours of boredom in cramped space. And before that comes waiting for the flight, stress with boarding, TSA, jet lag,...

    And you are supposed to ignore all that and work normally the next day. Or perhaps on the same day, or even on the flight.

  • I have a similar theory about star trek. In one scene there was a blurry picture and to sharpen it Ricker said: "Computer implement recursive Algorithm". That is equivalent to "Computer do something". So now my theory is that there is an intelligent ship with a genius AI that carries around humans that have regressed to toddler intelligence because the AI does everything for them.

    The ship is basically human daycare with lots of blinking buttons and moving pictures to keep the humans occupied while the ship does the actual (and probably boring) science.

    Starfleet Academy is basically teaching them technobabble and looking great in a uniform while the AIs do the real work.

  • The guillotine was invented as a painless execution. The axe or sword were often not deadly with the first try.

  • “Abolish ICE” Is More Popular Than Ever. How Will Democrats Drop the Ball This Time?

    Jump

  • Trying to be more rightwing to get more voters never worked: the right demonized the Democrats, so they will never vote for them, while going even more to the right alienates the left.

    But they will try anyway because going left would alienate their sponsors and doing nothing results in loss.

  • What next, power supply shortages?

  • I built my PC shortly before the GPU shortage and plan on not updating till the RAM shortage is over (not that I could update earlier since money is currently an issue)

  • Oh really? Didn't someone in the Linux community notice a backdoor in the code because it delayed the startup by something like 200ms?

  • States say they need more help replacing lead pipes. Congress may cut the funding instead.

    Jump

  • Why would they help? Lead poisoning is probably one of the main reasons why people vote Republican

  • Dell admits consumers don’t care about AI PCs, Dell is now shifting it focus this year away from being ‘all about the AI PC.’

    Jump

  • These AI PCs/Notebooks aren't even able to run the really big models. For those you'd need a 5000$ card. And for the smaller models a good graphics card is often enough.

    For a real AI PC we would need new technology or graphics cards with more ram (the last one would suprise me with current ram prices)

  • That's in the past.

    To their credit: when they changed their motto, they clearly announced that they will do evil.

    There are not many companies who announce their switch to the dark side.
