Your right about this. I was incorrect, I conflated it with the Jaguar 64 (which was...let’s say “not good”). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaguar_(microarchitecture)

I conflated that mentally with the N64, thanks for the correction and explanation!

You need to update your nerdopedia entry about the N64, mate. It actually did have a UMA architecture much like PS4 and PS5, with a continuous 4MB memory space (8MB with expansion cart), and its main CPU was definitely 64-bit as it had a 64-bit ISA* (physical data bus was 32-bit due to cost reasons and was also…

Yeah, this is just because while the PS1, 2, 4, and 5 are basically just computers built using the available tech at the time using standardized architectures and parts (just with specialized motherboards, GPUs, power supply, etc.).

PS3 did a weird architecture where they split the memory explicitly. Basically, of the…

Yeah, ps3 architecture is weird. Whereas most modern (PS1, PS2, and forward) consoles use a shared memory pool for all processes like a normal computer, PS3 put a specific split. From it’s half gig of RAM, 256MB are specifically for graphics, and 256MB are specifically for processor, and it’s not feasible within the…

“ROCK, WELCOME TO EARTH!” *slap*

yes, you can’t put you hands on someone and act like that is legal defense because they used a slur. What the fuck is wrong with people? Unless this old dude had a weapon, this was wrong.

calling someone an (admittedly) despicable slur/name is not in any way the same as “grabbing the barrel of a loaded gun”. No matter how awful the words/voice is saying it, no one- white, black- has the right or even reason to murder someone, or even assault them.
sorry, call me crazy, i find that a little...crazy

He punched a 77 year-old, who then died.  I’d say two years’ house arrest is more than fair.  “He was old and might have died anyway” isn’t much of a defense.

That’ll never happen, because the Dems would rather exist as the permanent opposition party to the GOP instead of actually being a political party.

As a Democrat I can easily pick holes in Republican’s actions, but it’s not like Democrats are innocent here. I think the “but look at them!” argument is used waaaaay too often and prevents Democrats from acknowledging and fixing flaws.

This a terrible idea, and none of the reasons you listed can be used to rationalize it.

If you “aren’t storing much data locally” then the recycle bin isn’t actually using up much (or any) space. Removing it doesn’t actually provide any benefit while keeping it might save your bacon in some rare instance. A bit like saying “I almost always ride the subway, so I might as well cut those seat belts out of…

Yeah, this only works when VERY young, because I remembered some of this bullshit, and it made me not trust my dad as a reliable source on anything.

Personally, I call it Bowlet Time

“Lincolnwood police confirmed James H. Davis III, 32, is facing felony charges including home invasion with a dangerous weapon, aggravated kidnapping while armed with a dangerous weapon, and aggravated assault against a peace officer.”

I think “Steven Graves” might be the name of the initial reporter, not the perp.

Yahtzee just talked too fast for them to know what he was saying.

It’s not just games. Or software. That, unfortunately, is just how so many projects are across industries. “Bioware Magic” because Bioware managed to, through luck, skill, “grit,” or just simple naivety, suffer through the worst of it to make some fantastic experiences that resonate with a lot of people. Also, “Short…

Wait, you mean a top of the line current gen console is better than the entry level SKU of an almost 10 year old console? You don’t say...

Toward the end of its run, if you played a glossy AAA game, you could almost feel the thing wheezing under the pressure.
