    @DoctorEldritch Pretty much have to wait for the hype to die down. Right now it would be a great chance for Chinese silicon to shine, but I haven't even followed where SMIC is at. Due to trade bans they have limited access to lithography. I did read they were trying to reverse engineer some ASML's... see more

    @DoctorEldritch True, it's a curse to live in interesting times... see more
  • Check out the rollable ultrawide screen on a Legion Pro! 💻🔥
    @DoctorEldritch It's a curved one. 34" 3440x1440. As far as I know the flat ones only come in smaller sizes and not a whole lot of models. That reminded me of the story behind the purchase. Spouse was windowshopping for monitors on Black Friday and his eye was initially caught by one of those... see more

    @DoctorEldritch The problem with the model training and fine-tuning is that the outcome really depends on who is in charge. When done by a bad actor, the AI can be fed biased data and become even worse. One of the popular LLMs, Grok, is owned by someone who is pretty much a Nazi... it was fine... see more

    @DoctorEldritch Many competitive games actually lock the resolution at standard 16:9 so with a wider aspect ratio you would be playing with black bars on the sides. My spouse recently bought a widescreen and he says that the games where you explore the world, like rpgs or mmos benefit from it.... see more

    @DoctorEldritch Pokemon Gym. I had gloves, but I took my hand out for a bit to be able to tap my phone. Interesting observation you shared about the mittens. I need to find mine and see if they fare better in this weather. see more

    @DoctorEldritch Seems so! see more
  • Lenovo CES 2026 / Quick Community Recap 🎤✨
    @DoctorEldritch The problem is that scooters or drones were behind a barrier of non-insignificant purchase cost. However, big gen AI tools are available for free and the free plans come with a lot of power. Any up-to-no-good middle schooler can ask a chatbot to render a fake nude of a classmate... see more

    @DoctorEldritch Just very dark stuff. Like VERY. see more

    @DoctorEldritch In my parts of the world the weather decided to roleplay an industrial freezer. I went out to capture a gym and came back with blue fingers. 😅 It seems like nobody is playing in this weather anymore, the gyms are not getting flipped and the whole island is blue. I don't wanna walk... see more

    The idea is really cool, but as you said, it's just a prototype. I would be interested to see the results of durability tests on such devices, as expanding screens are making a lot of progress, but are still plagued by a lot of issues. see more

    @DoctorEldritch It seems that I am pretty chatty once I get to talk! The holidays were fine, a bit uneventful but that is not necessarily a bad thing. Hoping yours were nice too! see more
  • Lenovo CES 2026 - podsumowanie 🤓
    Ile razy na minutę można powtarzać "AI"? Mam bardziej umiarkowane podejście do AI niż wielu ludzi w moim otoczeniu, ale nuży mnie to bezustanne pompowanie bańki. To nie pomaga kontrowersjom. see more

    @DoctorEldritch I suppose doing Orin questline in BG3 is not that cosy after all... but somehow that's what I ended up doing, among other things. 🤐 see more

    Ooh, I made it to the board, nice! I just popped in to check with the community before Christmas and wish people happy holidays. 😁 see more

    Not my stuff on EGS, but my backlog is large enough anyway! I am making good progress on the last act in BG3 and I reinstalled Pokemon Go to check how the game has been lately. The weather is rather perishing right now though, I went for a walk one evening and came back with blue fingers. 😅 see more

    I am not so much giving the AI a side eye, but I am tired that it became the sole area of focus for most tech companies. The hype is way too overblown and most people don't understand what AI can or can't do. At the same time lawmakers are not addressing the increasing use of AI and we are... see more
  • Get Black Desert free on Steam!
    @DracoTarot Part of the current pricing is speculation and panic, unfortunately. Retailers will always take advantage of the situation if they can sell something for a higher price. Regarding a company selling solely to the datacenters, the problem is that the demand is high and all... see more
