The fact it can output a 120Hz signal doesn’t mean the processor is making every frame. Many AAA games will be performing at well under 120fps especially in scenes with lots of action.

It’s not limited to 30fps like the other poster suggested though, I think most devs try to maintain at least 60fps.

You can also switch the theme to base16 to use your term colours

Yeah a lot of pro audio discussion still happens on gearspace (formerly gearslutz), KVR, dogsonacid, etc

You should try a kettle. They’re definitely faster and more convenient than microwaving or the stove. There’s a reason tea drinking nations have them.

Also how often do you think you need to clean a thing whose sole purpose is to boil water?

It’s always crazy to me that a kettle isn’t a standard kitchen item in NA (assuming that’s where you are).

They’re so cheap and so useful for so many things besides tea and it takes aaaages to get water to boil on a hob for any kind of cooking. Pasta, ramen, soups, sauces, hot water bottles, cleaning anything difficult.

But then again because of the 110V vs 240V situation, they take twice as long to boil in NA vs Europe so maybe it is more comparable to microwaving or boiling on the stove so they seem less useful.

Probably just wanted a higher number than windows or didn’t want to get leapfrogged. Also makes more sense with iOS having a similar schedule.

No they ditched OSX and yearly point updates in 2020 and went from Mac OSX 10.15.7 to MacOS 11.0

The next yearly release was MacOS 12.

It's now up to 14.2.1

The bit about the whales having “culture” that’s potentially >30 million years old, compared to the fact that humans have only been around for ~150k years blew my mind.

The foresight the team has had to try not to fuck up this culture with a load of garbled AI nonsense is pretty amazing too.

This is an awesome lecture by a guy who works in a team that’s been training AI models to decode languages and translate languages without any external dictionary. Pretty interesting in itself but it gets crazy when they apply it to animal communication and realize the same principles apply. Defo worth a watch.

Free in FOSS means free as in freedom not free as in beer.

It’s pretty normal for the company you work for to have your name, address and DOB.

I’m all for protecting your privacy and online anonymity to the max but when it’s literally the company you work for that need the most basic information, which they do need for a variety of reasons to keep you employed, that’s a little too far IMO.
