The last decade has brought a lot of clarity to me on this. People follow the herd and are tribal. If a movement gains enough momentum, most people will go along with it even if it's "against their principles". There are very few people that will stand up in front of an advancing hoard and say "Stop! This is wrong."
I suspect Nazi Germany was the same. Most people will have accepted what was happening as the price of an easy life, and it wasn't until it was too late that they realised what had happened.
It's the entomology of the word.
Legally they have a definition which broadens the concept to not just direct killing of a people, but also acts that lead to the eradication of a culture. For example: kidnapping the children of a group and raising the within your own culture is a genocidal act as it leads to the culture dying off, even though no actual killing has taken place.
The graphics API isn't something superficial. The source engine was designed from the ground up around APIs from 20 years ago. Any Vulkan adapter will be a bodge.
This sounds like a good thing. I don't care if the manufacturer of my equipment trusts the software. I care if I trust it.
Isn't this all a bit late?
It ended. Putin re-engaged.
Could the oldest profession be one of the first to be replaced by AI?
No.
I'd rather a slower, less intense burn tbh. More time to escape.
It'll be interesting to see how well the new names take. Most of the other names on the network are shortened versions of the originals, or nicknames which then got officially adopted.
I still think the Goblin name will live on with those who use it.
The word. Genus-cide.
It's the killing of a genus, a race.
Again, I'm struck with the lack of overall data. I can believe that individual manufacturers have saturated the marked for £70k luxury EVs and their sales are slumping. That doesn't mean demand for EVs is falling though.
Depends on the corner of the tech world I think. In FOSS circles, sure.
You are talking about a game that was developed before Vulkan was a glint in Khronos' eye.
Following links, 3 websites later, Windows exe. RX 7900 XTX only (from the consumer card line).
Come on AMD
- You need to support developers. This field is moving too fast for binary blobs in partnership with some other company.
- You need to support them on your whole consumer line. Developers don't have arrays of "professional" GPUs waiting to spin up whilst they bash out code. They're on a machine with a single consumer GPU that they can trial code on. Might not even be a high end one.
I'm really confused by this supposed EV slump. In the US maybe, because of Tesla being dominant and now falling out of favour with a lot of people, but that's not the EU.
Data only goes up to 2023, but...
Further progress in the uptake of electric cars and vans was made in all 27 EU Member States in 2023. Electric vehicles accounted for 22.7% of new car registrations and 7.7% of new van registrations. In total, 2.4 million new electric cars were registered in 2023, up from 2 million in 2022. Registrations of new battery electric cars grew by 37%, while the number of newly registered plug-in hybrid cars fell by almost 4%. In 2023, a total of 91,000 new electric vans were registered, most of which were battery electric.

That show BEVs steadily increasing and PHEVs flatlining, and I don't see why 2024 would be particularly different.
There are also very good reasons to think that the money in medicine distorts and corrupts the science. Fact is the proper trials are very expensive and the only institutions that can afford them are pharmaceutical corporations. So the only treatments that get trailed are the ones that make good business sense.
"Extremely thin" is pretty low on my list of features I want.
If making it a bit thicker gives me ethernet and HDMI then make it thicker. A laptop moves from place to place, and not needing dongles / specialist cables makes it far easier to jump on anybodies desk and just plug in.
