It's got to be a bug with drivers or something to do with windows updates. For simple games like league I used to get crashes, or no starts, but, fine now, same hardware, didn't change anything.

I've seen the same thing with various games. I played Robocop and other UE5 stuff, not a single issue. There is something where all this data collection information would be useful that they do. If they had all the information from systems like mine where it's working, comparing it to similiar systems like yours where it's taking a dump and analyzing the collective differences to figure wtf it is that's going on.

Latest updates when I play heroes of the storm, an older SC2 engine game, that should run fine all the time, I'll get like random stutters where it'll drop to 1 fps for like 4 seconds then go back to fine. Why? No idea at all. Other games? Not even a hint of an issue. So it's something weird with a driver or process these guys are doing. Probably some data collection crap if I was to guess. I'm frustrated with that crap.

I miss the days where drivers were drivers and didn't report back to the manufacture.

I run UE5 games no problem and they look fantastic. I run a decent system, R7 3800x, 32 GB ram, RTX 3080.

What is wrong with people? That one comment, senior dev, you keep using that word and I don't think it means what you think it means is accurate.

AI at this point can be an assistant for functions and writing code, giving you ideas or suggestions how to write a function, but by no means can you sit on your ass and do nothing while the AI does your job for you can while you're all proud like you did something.

We live in a constant state of stolen valour where people are lazy, want to do nothing, achieve nothing, and take credit like they're amazing for something.
If you use it, you have to guide to be specific about what it does, how it does it, and have prompts. You can use it to automate some functions and do some work for you, but you can't hand it the damn keys and just say, "Make a program that does X with the quality that will give me a pay raise" go scroll facebook and come back as a hero.

It can do really basic things well. It can be another pair of eyes. It does not understand what a proper senior developer does when it comes to how something has to be written, the consequences of 'it works but wasn't written properly' or the security issues behind it.

If you look for a book that's considered dark and has a fictional story where someone is encouraged to commit suicide by a specific way, maybe some murder torture mystery novel, you seek it out and read it, then kill yourself. Was it the books fault? The authors? Or you for consuming that content with intention?

Look, you can go to your local library and find a lot of books about medicine, how it affects people, risks of taking too much and go, 'Ah, it could kill me if I did this.' Is the library at fault because you wouldn't have figured out a way before?

It's just grief and finding fault in others. If they watched a show and someone died after being hit by a car, and they jump out in front of a car to die, or someone falls from great height, is that show at fault now?

No. This is just trying to benefit from the death, most likely to deal with the grief of losing their kid. It's certainly not chatgpt's fault for having the information available.

I don't always agree with you but in this I do. It's absolutely a Ponzi scheme.

Your bitcoin increases in value only when you convience other people to buy bitcoin, then you can sell your bitcoin to receive your payment.
It decreases the value of their bitcoin when you do it. It's like if the ponzi leader asked you to sell a product, and I'll give you a token for each one you sell, and it's value is based on how much money you get other people to put into the tokens...oh wait, that's exactly what they did.

I said specifically iPhones, I never said smartphones. What's with this? It's like a mass delusion that a world without iPhones wouldn't have smart phones of any kind. Of course it would.

Well, it said, specifically iPhones, I didn't say without technology and advancements with smart phones or other PDA devices giving more information and function on use.

Smart phones sure are handy, but I can definitely see a world without iPhones specifically.

It's really easy to see the world without iPhones. I grew up in that world. It was fine.

Usually when I'm searching for information on something it's not an unknown new thing where I'm the sponge for the information and manipulation of the internet to mold me to it's latest fantasy on it's quest for riches.

I'll be looking up specific information, technical information, and it just gets me that information a lot faster, Instead of reading someones junk article that tries to get your time on their page for 2 minutes when they know you're looking for the 10 lines of code or instructions that takes 10 seconds to read and I don't have to do that now, great.

The business model of that is garbage is limited, and it's okay to fail.

If I know what commands I'm looking for and information, and I know it's out there, and google presents it, it's a refresher, it's not information I need to verify, I already know what it needs to do and can validate it myself if what it presented is right.

It's not always right and that's okay, I just make sure to write my queries in a way that gets me the right answer

You got pretty angry which means there are problems with your position clearly. I won't be able to name a place 100%, you're the kinda trash that will be like some farmers has a solar panel on there house so it's not 100% coal, and maybe for sanity100% everything anywhere is probably not accurate, or it would have to be a very narrow scope but not nationwide.

If you're going to argue that using a combustion engine (natrual gas plants use engines oh so clever one, an engine not pushing wheels is just called a generator), making electricity, transferring it, which all, all, has energy loss and efficiency gone from heat and other losses, down to charge a battery for an EV is some how more efficient is just plain delusional.

If this was plausible, then just engines that run on natural gas, which is absolutely a thing, would be way, way, way, way more efficent than an EV, instead of generating the power miles and miles away, transferring it across lines, and storing in a bettery, then running an electric engine to push a car.

Places that are mostly renewables, I never argued that it doesn't produce less c02 that ICE vehicles in that area, although let's question your damn ethics where all that lithium is being sourced. You know, better for the environment if you violent labor practices and decent human conditions right? So stuff your morality, it's false.

Your delulu methods are clear as day, you won't take the complete life cycle of an electric vehicle for c02 because it doesn't look so great, and it's garbo in a place that isn't using renewables.

You also completed skirted the pollution to manufacture and recycle renewables, and don't factor that into your green revolutions. The only real way is nuclear, it wouldn't surprise me if you're against that.

You can have your last word, I won't respond, I know it's going to be antagonistic tripe that is selective on data so you can pat yourself on that back. Don't worry, you're so good and knoweldgable, and it's not about money or anything else, and everyone else is wrong. you are the best and most rightest. Next tim emaybe try a discussion without being an antagonistic little turd and you might get a better response.

Have a great day.

Um, some places they are, or burning natural gas to generate electricity. Where I live is hydro dams so that's a plus for electric, although we do destroy a localized area to build the dam and flood a large area to store the water, I'm certain it's objectively better than constant c02 into the air.

But yeah, no there are plenty of places that do not use renewables. You also have to factor in the pollution renewables create in production and waste recycling, margins are slimmer than people are led to believe for 'clean energy'. Parts are clean, parts are not.

Also do we want to dive into the c02 in the atmosphere being 0.04, and it was originally a couple hundred years ago like 0.02, and that only a small percentage of that is actually from human activities. less than 30% I believe.

Exactly this. If I could recharge my EV at home and save money overall I'd consider it, but I can't, and it would make my life worse, take even more of my time which, companies already get 70% of my day during the week dedicated to them, and you're going to take more of my free time, and more of my money? And paper straws? While other countries pollute way more on the same planet I live on, so I'll die from it anyway, but I need to do it so I can join the morally superior club? Pass.

I don't have an EV because I can't charge from my apartment. EVs do destroy the biosphere, I would have to drive twice as much as I currently do per year to recover the additional c02 an EV from manufacturing creates and it would take 5 or so years to recover, at double my driving rate. Even longer with how much I drive.

In addition, how long do I need to sit around to get a charge that is even less than my ICE?
Power grids are also not the same everywhere, and not everywhere uses renewable energy sources. EVs are great in the right environment, but mandating it everywhere because someone is morally superior is completely mental. The numbers that show how great they are, are chosen in specific environments. It doesn't apply to the entire world and everywhere geographically.

Like that time in the city all the cars were dead on the road because of a cold snap.
