Chicken Little, but with guns. Good thing it wasn’t hailing outside. He would have called in swat. 

The passthrough, while video-fed, still allows for an AR experience. There might be some lag in the milliseconds, but it is still AR when you can see yourself and surroundings and can layer VR elements over it.

For the record, the “remastered” version is pixelated for me also in the sliders. Looks like when you stretch a low resolution image beyond it’s native physical size to fit a larger area. Chrome/Win 10 with Nvidia discrete graphics.

The first is that she can no longer endlessly maintain her flight, as her fuel doesn’t recharge while airborne.

There are a lot of things I’ve seen that I thought were pretty cool and/or funny, but “$3,500 cool”? At that price point, it would have to practically replace my TV, laptop, and gaming console to justify its purchase. And I know there are lots of well off people who think otherwise or businesses that might be able to…

I don’t personally like the hand-holding that comes with highlighting objectives and routes to that degree, but will acknowledge that being completely lost in a game turns some people off. Elden Ring comes to mind in that regard, where I’ve seen tons of people complain that they have no idea what they’re supposed to…

Singing at that level is a physical performance as much as it is art. And just like sport, sometimes you miss. But also just like sport, people expect greatness from star performers just like athletes, and will get on them when they show that they are human and not super human. It’s not fair at all, but it’s par for…

It probably doesn’t endear Waymo to the locals when they’re beta testing their cars in an area with narrow streets and traffic congestion. But this was dumb regardless of motivation. 

This is kind of a strange position for MS. I thought the annoucement of sharing exclusives meant a slow transition away from consoles and just using the “Xbox” branding as more of a software focused entity, kind of like a mix between Atari’s eventual path and Steam on PC’s. Because if you give away the exclusives,…

EVERTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

I believe all of that except selling the electronics on any type of black market. Who’s buying hot microwave equipment or whatever that is, and what junky is going to know how to do that? 

I’m getting the same thing. Wonder if it is this: On an Android phone, Gemini takes over for Assistant after you install the Gemini app and allow it to do so. However, if you look at the Gemini app itself, it is locked into “no permissions allowed” and “notifications blocked” with no way of changing that. And if you…

Not that age would even matter when it comes to judging poor dancing skills, but I was indeed more than “barely alive” when this video came out. And thanks at the attempt to school me on the Stones, but I’m quite aware of them. All that proves is that Mick Jagger’s idiotic chicken dance is at least 60 years old now.…

I must be some type of sick masochist, still playing this game in 2024 after all this bullshit.

Video called “Dancing in the Street”, showcasing the artist in question dancing, and also the subject of the exact conversation we’re having, should not be used as the basis for judging said artist’s dancing. Got it.

I have no idea how anyone could watch the video we’re all commenting on and come to that conclusion, but here we are...

A lot of that slowdown and sluggishness Windows is so “fondly” known for is the exact hardware/software disparity that Microsoft has to deal with. They have to make an OS that will magically work with anyone’s random hardware and drivers and account for literally endless combinations, not including kitchen appliances.…

Their design and software might be the best of the best, but their mechanical engineers seem to be fairly average, at most.

When they first came out, they were pretty high quality. It was like home cooked foods. Like being able to get a to-go plate at a family get together while skipping the awkward inlaw conversations. Thanksgiving 365 days a year. And at the time, no one was doing roasted or rotisserie chicken like every grocery store…

As a Xbox user who mistakenly embedded himself into the Xbox ecosystem years ago, I don’t care if Xbox stuff lands on PS or Nintendo, but would love some reciprocation, and don’t see that happening anytime soon.
