- Comment on A Flagship Smartphone With Kill Switches? Meet the Murena-Powered HIROH Phone 2 weeks ago:
The HIROH Phone (Powered by Murena) is available for pre-sale. You can pay a €/$ 99 deposit to reserve your device and get a voucher to buy it later for €/$ 999, discounted from the retail price of €/$ 1,199.
1,200 moneys is an absurd price for a phone like that IMO. You can get a Fairphone for literally half that. I’m not so sure there is a market for ‘premium privacy phones’ that is not already satisfied by (also significantly cheaper) Pixels with GrapheneOS

I can make the connections for computer science, but how the hell does welding attract da queerness? (And how the hell did my phone autocomplete that sentence?)

Because Python wants you to read it like English: English:
x is “foo” if y is greater than 5, else it is “bar”

Which, tbf, gives you the amout you pay back in ingame currency, of which you will need at least some if you want to trade stuff / the MMO experience

It’s okay. As the other comments pointed out, it kinda feels like a really cool tech demo. Lots of systems to look at, but everything is disconnected. That’s what makes the game feel shallow. You can completely ignore most stuff without any consequence

I was about to say, I put 2000 hours in League of Legends and I’m not sure whether I enjoyed that either :D

I really don’t know what to think about this game. It definitely has come a long way, but to this day, it feels… Shallow.
It’s a sandbox game where building, crafting and trading are not great, not terrible. It’s also an adventure game, but the story is overall very predictable and combat is again, not great, not terrible. It’s a multiplayer game, except no, not really, since you don’t share quest progesss and almost never meet random people (if you aren’t close to the center of the galaxy).
I’m about 200h into it and still can’t tell you if I like it or if it just keeps me busy. I have high hopes for Light No Fire tho.
- Comment on UltraRAM scaled for volume production — memory that promises DRAM-like speeds, 4,000x the durability of NAND, and data retention for up to a thousand years, is now ready for manufacturing 1 month ago:
RAM = accessible anywhere (very simply put) D = Dynamic = loses data if power is gone
This is NVRAM tech, NV standing for ‘non volatile’. That means it keeps the data if power is lost. You only need to re-write if you read that data. There is probably a hardwired option to do this immediately, perhaps even capacitors to ensure this goes through even if you happen to lose power that very moment.
Consumes extra energy, may add some latency to reads, but there’s more to being fast and non-volatile at the same time. May be wort it, may be not.

Oh, sorry, yes I mean a microwave + convection oven combo. Didn’t know how to translate that properly. My mom got one and it’s basically an air frier, a microwave and a mini-oven in one. Pretty cool stuff

Ingl, a microwave oven with air circulation is pretty neat. That last part is important tho

The trees on the left are strangely offset upwards, there is a line down the windshield which I have never seen on a bus like that, the bus also does not have a door at the front, which they typically do, and to a lesser degree that yellow looks like it belongs to a school bus, while this clearly isn’t one

Not enough sales data from Nintendo’s little experiment yet. Don’t hold your breath, ‘this stage’ won’t last.

Uhm, excuse me, but I don’t think the 5060 qualifies as “high-end”. I’m not saying that matching it is not an achievement, but that headline is weird at best

No analytics scripts show up that’s true, but they explicitly claim the right to use it in their privacy statement.

Great idea, immediatly tarnished by using third party tracking tools (Google Analytics).
