Ehh I disagree, I played consistently ow1 for years and ow2 just wasn’t as good.

I mainly missed tank synergies. Without it the game just wasn’t the same. The other tank changes were just insane too. And I preferred the full 6v6 experience.

Then they had to go an monetize the shit out of it, when I already paid for the game! The last straw was either paying for new characters or grinding like hell.

Honestly given how Frank Herbert wrote other female characters in the books, I interpreted chani as a satirization of settler/colonizer wife.

It’s rather subtle, and would not likely come across well with a movie audience.

I’m a bit surprised at a lot of the criticisms for the movies here, and I say this as a huge fan of the Dune novels too.

Villeneuve has a particular film style like blade runner 2049, and Arrival.

If you don’t like his style you won’t like the 2nd movie.

But on the other hand part 1 sets the stage for everything that happens in part 2, and overall I think it is an excellent adaption. Dune is not an easy book to adapt to film, and some changes had to be made, but they’re aren’t any glaring changes that make me go “why the hell did you change it that way?”

It’s extremely faithful to the book, and in cases where it’s not, I can see the reasoning for the change.

I mean the books are great too, apparently they’re even better in it’s native language.

Enough money to buy Activision-Blizzard and Bethesda, but not enough to actually pay for developers or marketing.

Most people have pretty decent ai hardware already in the form of a gpu.

Sure dedicated hardware might be more efficient for mobile devices, but that’s already done better in the cloud.

It’s not to late, cook it a little more and the garlic flavor will become mild.

Sounds like something a nazi would say.

And if they wanted their own little naziverse on the fediverse nobody could stop them, but compared to every other social media platform most of lemmy deplatformed and banned nazis, while they get privileged status on Facebook or Twitter.

Oh they tried, they got banned and any instance they spun up got defederated.

Turns out they don’t like just each other very much. And those instances did not grow on their own.

It’s not gas that’s making it dark, its dust, small particles made out of some combination of iron, silicates, carbonaceous materials, and other elements.

I browse all, and I just block communities that I find overly negative.

I like using a forest berry jam mix of Raspberries, Blueberries, Blackberries, Cranberries, and Strawberries.

It’s currently my favorite, but when I was a kid I liked strawberry preserves.

Oh no I read the article, I just don’t consider that testing.

It’s not really apt to compare using ram on a browser on one computer and extract that to another, there’s a lot of complicated ram and cache management that happens in the background.

Testing would involve getting a 8gb ram Mac computer and running common tasks to see if you can measure poorer performance, be it lag, stutters or frame drops.

This is a truly terrible article.

Like why not test these things? This just sounds like ai generated garbage.

That being said, 8gb is an abysmally low amount of ram in 2024. I had a mid range surface in 2014 that had that much ram. And the upcharge for more is quite ridiculous too.

I know it’s pc ram but I bought 64gb of ddr4 3600mhz for like $130. How on earth is apple charging $200 for 8!!!

Low key this should just link to where most of the discussion takes place. https://startrek.website/post/775523
