Hmm, I was not aware of that. I’ve seen (not Nvidia related) simulations with probably tens of thousands of rigidbodies running on relatively old midrange CPUs in real time, so it’s pretty crazy that it’s that slow.

Are there really any 32-bit era games that your CPU can’t handle, especially if you have a $1k+ gpu? This post is honestly pretty misleading as it implies modern versions of PhysX don’t work, when they actually do.

That being said, it doesn’t make all that much sense as a decision, doubles are rare in most GPU code anyways (as they are very slow), NVIDIA is just being lazy and doesn’t want to write the drivers for that

Well, at least you aren’t on mac where 32 bit things just don’t launch at all… (I think they might be playable through wine, but even in the x86 era MacOS didn’t natively run any 32 bit games or software, so games like Portal 2 or TF2 for example just didn’t work even though they had a MacOS version)

People do that with google translate as well

Truly only the most useful of functions for this great operating system

It’s because Windows has to save its keyboard combinations for the important things, like opening a new LinkedIn tab.

Hash them with the post ID appended, so a user can’t be identified across posts

Ok that makes sense

Reminds me of the “U.S. Post: you have a USPS parcel being cleared, due to the detection of an invalid zip code address, the parcel can not be cleared, the parcel is temporarily detained, please confirm the zip code address information in the link within 24 hours” message I got with the totally not suspicious domain “usps.com-service.webnw.top/us” and the unnecessarily confusing instructions “Please reply with a Y, then exit the text message and open it again to activate the link, or copy the link into your Safari browser and open it”

There are multiple similar subs on reddit as well though, often with very slightly different names

If they look at the “all” feed they’ll see 90% of the same stuff from 90% of instances.

Once (from experience) they learn what they want from an instance, they can always switch.

“Here’s Lemmy. It’s like Reddit. There’s a bunch of different websites for it, but they all have basically the same people and posts on them. Just join one near you, if you don’t like it you can always use a different one later”

They don’t really need to know about that until they have had time on Lemmy to hear about what those defederated instances actually do

I read on Wikipedia that earlier tales of the Easter bunny only had it giving gifts to good kids, it might just be a regional thing now

the federal department does some very important assistance to state departments and students, but it is worth noting that states do basically all of the actual control and management of schools

honestly if you can 3d print something you can make something almost as strong out of wood, it just takes more effort

one could also easily make a disposable mold for a low-melting-point metal alloy, those are much stronger than 3d prints and many can be melted on a normal stove

I think the problem is more that information on how to make guns is now easily available, rather than the specific usefulness of 3d printing as a manufacturing technique

a court case also draws out media coverage, possibly more than an extended search would

I don’t really understand how USB stuff works (what is the difference between a hub, interface, and controller?) but from what I’ve seen I think a hub supporting 20gbps would probably be in the 5-15$ range and probably not larger than a few centimeters

If you have multiple ports driven off the same internal hub, they will share bandwidth.
