Part of the problem is that people have gotten lazy. I’d say the biggest advent of people losing touch with the actually tech is windows 7. It had everything at your fingertips. No need to look for drivers, little need for compatibility changes or added set up requirements. Couple that with nvidia automatically adjusting “best settings” for your rig on a per-game basis and you’ve got what we have now. People don’t want to learn and they’ve forgotten how we got here. Unfortunately, click and run seems to be the consumer de facto now and it isn’t going to go away.

1·6 个月前Oh absolutely! I tried to make a career of an interest once before and it killed my passion for it. I would be devastated if that happened with my tech love.

6·6 个月前As a kid, dad set me up on one of his spare dos/win3.1 PCs when he was working. The passion and learning never stopped from that point. Just not something I want to make a career of.

Trees@lemmy.world•Cannabis Industry Should Develop More 'Consistent' Drying Methods, Federal Science Agency SaysEnglish
12·1 年前I agree with the fed on this. So many growers with varied ways of drying and handling that impact the overall final quality of bud. There should be a set standard to minimize mould and rot while also promoting less use of radiation to “sterilize”

The ps3 was an oddly specd system with little documentation for developers. It was overdeveloped and under utilized. Could have saved on r&d with the cell processor and gone with normal architecture eg ps4 and 5.
Edit to add that the cell processor was best at floating point calculations rather than raster graphics pipelines. So the best use case scenario were things like folding@home or the Linux os server stream.
