Major difference is that in Hollywood, you don’t hire a bunch of, say, VFX artists for a movie, you contract the company that retains them. They’ll generally still have jobs when the movie is over. It’s mostly just the cast, director and writers that work on a per-project basis. Games industry is somehow worse than Hollywood.

TBoGT was Luis, who was pretty much what VI’s male protag (Jason?) should’ve been. He actually had a personality other than just being the big badass guy.
I suspect the reason they haven’t had female protagonists before is just pure male defaultism rampant in the gaming industry. Gamers would’ve made a ton of noise in the past. Otherwise, a game with Catalina as the protagonist could’ve been really interesting.
I suspect two things:
The world will be more immersive and less soulless once we can actually navigate it. It’s also the first time there’s been a swamp in GTA which is cool.
Lucia will be by far the better protagonist. The other one seems poorly written and with a voice completely mismatching the character model. I think Lucia will have more depth and her voice is more pleasant.
This game is what’s finally going to push me upgrade my 3060Ti in a few years but… I’m not exactly hopeful on there being anything to upgrade to. Would prefer to skip nvidia and amd has decided to abandon the high end market but if I’m upgrading, I’d like to go up a tier or two, not just a few generations. I want to be blown away by the card that’s going to have to last me the next 5-10 years.
I’m also guessing there won’t be a new GPU generation out next year.
RDR1 was a special case, San Diego didn’t port their previous few games either which is why we don’t have Midnight Club LA on PC for example.
GTA is too big. It’s guaranteed extra sales for a game they already have. Same with RDR2, it was heaps more popular than the first (which itself was more popular than expected I guess) so leaving it console exclusive was never really on the table.
The good news is that there’s nothing stopping us from starting a competitor. Nvidia probably wants to use it to push their graphics cards.
Because the authors may want to take down their models or change the datasets after the fact probably.
Not that it removes from users computers, but at least the primary source can be made unavailable at will
? Github can cost tons of money if you abuse runners
Nvidia also sells super expensive graphics cards. They probably want you to buy a couple of 5090s or a Spark.
They know they can’t shut down the entire self hosted LLM market but they can direct it towards using Nvidia GPUs by making sure llama.cpp devs don’t spend much time on ROCm support, etc. And they probably know that ClosedAI and Anthropic’s days on the frontier are limited.
What I mean is that majority of the time people here are pro copyright infringement and against copyright laws
3060 ti 8GB and 32 GB DDR4 says no, I can’t do that or anything else useful with a local model.
However. Deepseek V4 flash is very cheap and fast. It’ll do anything simple and some complex things you throw at it
Funny seeing people on lemmy suddenly defending copyright now lol
Other AI companies can still buy them, they’re just rare because nobody bought them in the first place. They destroy them because scanning them is faster and in some jurisdictions that absolves you from copyright infringement since the amount of copies doesn’t go up
Can’t say I’ve had your experience, Windows always had issues. Think 7 was the least problematic version for me and the last one I remember fondly.
I have a car diagnostics laptop running 8.1 because it doesn’t support legacy boot for 7 and is too weak for 10. That UX was horrendous. Then came 10 which was unusable without an SSD. That sounds like the norm now but back then a lot of people didn’t have them. I’m not even going to mention 11, it came out before the AI craze and has sucked since release.
But the really crazy side of Microsoft is the ERPs. Way too much always changing. Good old systems being retired because they have a worse new one to replace it with, etc.
The URL they posted has the same title as the post here so it’s the source that changed their title after the fact.
There are also flights where this could be used as fully electric right now, or very soon if they increase range a bit. If you fly from Tallinn to anywhere via Finnair, you go through Helsinki, that’s like a 30 minute flight. And the reason you don’t just drive to Helsinki is that you’d have to take the ferry which costs more money, takes over an hour and the Helsinki airport isn’t that close to the port.
Similarly, you can fly from Tallinn to the two bigger islands here in Estonia, very short flights versus like a 3 or 4 hour bus ride involving a ferry. 30 and 40 minute flights with the current 30-40 person planes that company uses.
It’s been Chromium based for ages now. Meaning they’ll likely eventually stop supporting manifest V2 too, unless Google makes it easy for them to keep supporting it.
Oh wow it’s the city
