@LowkoTV You should try the "new" Dawn of War! store.steampowered.com/app/3556750/Wa…

IT IS TIME! The StarCraft 2 Esports World Cup is starting. I’m casting the first series of the tournament together with @Wardixo. It’s time for Astrea vs ByuN. Let’s goooooo! #EWC twitch.tv/ewc_snbarena_en

@LowkoTV @Wardixo Was there no introduction of you guys on the stream?! I didn't find any...

Factorio: Space Age is here! factorio.com/blog/post/fact… #factorio #gamedev

I’m crying

@torybruno I'd flex too if I had a rocket like that!

@torybruno Ah, you're just flexing. ;-)

As promised, here's a clip from one the new camera angles freshly cleared through ITAR.

New video! I hacked @LinusTech to expose the vulnerability in our phone system youtube.com/watch?v=wVyu7N…

@carygolomb @CautilloChris It's really not recommended to use NTFS for Steam on Linux. The defaults certainly do not work.

@CautilloChris You could, kernel on Bazzite should support NTFS, so it's just pointing to the correct directory

Awwwww SHIT MOTHAFUCKKAAA SUPER STEAM MACHINE IS GO TIME (Naturally it defaults to the Windows install on the system, will install Bazzite later)

@skdh Hope it will be recorded!

On Saturday (Sep 21), I will be in London at #HTLGI24, among other things to argue with Matt O’Dowd of space-time fame over superdeterminism. Tickets here howthelightgetsin.org/festivals/lond…

Two days ago, a lawfirm filed a federal antitrust lawsuit against 6 commercial publishers (incl Elsevier & Wiley) in the federal district court in New York. They allege a 3-part scheme on part of publishers. 🧵 lieffcabraser.com/antitrust/acad…

@carygolomb @_rogame Get a big cooler and a big power supply! 😁

Alright fug it! I'm in! Gonna make my own Steam Machine Pro! I forgot I get 5% Amazon cash back. So it was actually $475 Brand new and 6950XT is basically the same thing as 7900 GRE. $475 for this GPU is kind of crazy value town. Thanks to @_rogame for pointing this out to me!

Maybe the 6950xt brand new for $500 is where it's at. 🤔 6800XT for $400 is solid value wise as well. But 6950xt is ~30% better 🤔 🤔 🤔

@carygolomb I guess you mean: ... at 800p as the PS5 at 2160p or something like that?

If Valve made a custom SoC for the SteamDeck 2 and went nuts with it where it was OP AF, I'd paid $1000 easy. If you could have a SteamDeck 2 that was able to play games as well a PS5, what would be the max you'd pay?

A cat has seemingly "published" 12 papers, garnering itself over 100 citations. How has this even happened? This incident has given me a rather pessimistic outlook on the future of academia. youtube.com/watch?v=FtuSG5…

@TinkererYorch MacOS version is the best :-) System 7 for life! Maybe not...

Good morning. Any Flashback fans out there?

@mikecodemonkey @Linux_Mint Does the built in speakers work fine?

@HardwareUnboxed But they have VBS enabled?!?

AMD has created a blog post covering Ryzen 9000 series gaming performance, they’re suggesting that Zen 5’s gaming performance is better than what reviews have shown, but that isn’t the case. “Why AMD-generated gaming data differs from reviewer data”, they didn’t, at least not by more than a few percent. Their own internal testing, which they reference in this blog post, indicates a 6% uplift on average, though it’s really 5% as the review guide included some obviously bad data. Most reviewers found margins around the 3-4% range, using more modern games. “The AMD gaming test suite includes a broad set of esports, AAA, and popular older games, which are a combination of CPU- and GPU-bound titles. Game performance conclusions can be influenced significantly by the makeup of the test suite.” AMD’s test suite is very odd, they’re only testing with 2-3 games released in the last 2 years, depending on the CPU they’re testing. Basically no new games, it’s almost all older, easy to run titles. If AMD were a review outlet, publishing day one reviews, they would be slammed by viewers/readers for how outdated their gaming test suite is. They only show performance gains with this Windows update for Zen 5, but note “Zen 5 will see the biggest boost, but this Windows update will improve performance for Zen 4 and Zen 3 as well. We're collaborating with Microsoft to roll out this optional update to all Windows 11 users soon.” As we’ve already shown, scaling is much the same, at most this update will move things +1% in favour of Zen 5, it’s a nothing burger. community.amd.com/t5/gaming/ryze…
