And there’s a chance you’ll be stuck behind someone at each one, so your reply has got less to do with what you’re replying to and more to do with your desire to make a different point.


Yes. And it makes sense. Aki is a much higher poly count, actual individual strands of hair, with cinema quality rendering. The other is a video game model.


Right, so Aki clearly looks better


Aki was years before alyx and looked much better. Which makes sense considering one was rendered for cinema and one was for real time game engine rendering
MS aren’t trying to capitalise because they were already planning to do the same thing. Maybe for the fact they did it first, Sony are getting all the heat while the other players are sitting back waiting for it to blow over. And it will.
The fact is, most people don’t want physical media. Even the people complaining aren’t really complaining about physical media, they are complaining about buying a licence to software, which has been a thing longer than most people complaining have been alive.


It’s not really about having something that’s good. It’s about having a platform that is compatible with existing workflows, and I don’t think anything comes close to the way the office suite ties in with the cloud and accounts.


MS Office and Photoshop are probably the two things that it would take for me to be able to main Linux without keeping windows running somewhere.
Check out the M4 Book edit. It reduces the trilogy into one 4 hour film and removes anything that wasn’t in the book.


Makes me think of clockwork Orange


I understand what you’re trying to ask, but the “fi” in sci fi doesn’t refer to how non science-y it is. It’s fiction that is themed by science.


Fan of Stargate SG-1?


I disagree that it’s no different to before AI. These days you can prompt for the whole paper to be written for you.


It’s comparing homework scores against exam scores
The kids who scored highly on homework because of AI did poorly in exams. This shows that AI use is just doing the homework for the kids and the kids aren’t learning.


I have to disagree with you on the Cisco stuff. It absolutely teaches you foundation networking.


Chef John is purely videos of recipes. He never did 40 minute episodes about which salt is the best.


I’ll be staying with win10 ltsc on VMs for as long as I can manage, but most are on a flavour of Linux


I don’t think house racing will be banned in our lifetime. There’s to much money involved.
Remember when NSW tried to ban dog racing? It got overturned within a few weeks, which was months before it was going to even come into affect.
There’s way more money being moved with horses, if they couldn’t stop dogs in a single state there’s no chance to stop horses anytime soon.
And that’s because the first guy that got knocked out got hurt and they called for a volunteer
It wasn’t a Uwe Boll film. His are much worse.
