It's an old game but I recently discovered Kittens Game. I also love Balatro, but Kittens it is more complicated and deeper. It's basically balancing spreadsheets for fun. Don't look at the wiki until you can get 120 kittens.

Because modern hardware includes instructions that old software could not benefit from. For example H.264 video decoding has specific instructions physically designed into the silicone to speed up playback that isn't there on older hardware.

That being said, it really depends on the use case and a lot of "modern" software is incredibly bloated and could benefit from not being designed as if RAM is an unlimited resource.

Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the best tech oligarch of them all

Agreed, his emails sure look like he was involved. Why isn't he being investigated?

It's pretty good so far. I liked the first episode way more than the second one. I'm interested to see where the series goes.

Can't wait for this dude to go the way of Sam Bankman-Fried. Open AI is the new Enron.

I can't prove it but I think the Kirkland paper towels quality has gone down too.

Vinyl records, analog tube amplifiers, a good pair of speakers 🤌

Honestly though digital compression now is so good it probably sounds the same.

That's a good point. The model weights could be voltage levels instead of digital representations. Lots of audio tech uses analog for better fidelity.I also read that there's a startup using particle beams for lithography. Exciting times.

Url looks suss. Seems kinda sophisticated for the usual ups fishing scam. Here's the text message I got leading here.

"Wishing you a bright and sunny day!" Lol, I almost want to help this guy by explaining that UPS and American companies in general have disdain for their customers and would never wish them to have anything that would not benefit the company.
