Well that’s exactly what I was thinking when these companies were making these claims… like HOW could they possibly handle this locally on a CPU or GPU when there must be a massive database that (I assume) is constantly being updated? Didn’t make sense.
EDIT: this entire website can go fuck off. You ask a simple question about some reasonably new tech, and you get downvoted for having the audacity to learn some new stuff. People on here are downright pathetic.
blame it on the consumer
Yeah. Blame it on the consumers indeed. Are you a adult or not? Put the tendies down and put your big boy pants on and realize that you need to take responsibility for at least some of your actions.
Same goes for all those dopes that pre-order every game that gets released and then we all wonder why the industry releases so many unfinished games that need patches and updates. That’s because consumers are rewarding these game developers for releasing shitty software.
I don’t understand this. Hasn’t Intel or Nvidia (or someone else) been making claims about their next CPUs having AI functionality built-in?
Comes with YT Premium, so not sure why I’d use anything else. Can’t say I love the app though. Seems to get worse with each update.
The most pathetic thing is that there are enough lonely dudes out there that some would actually consider this service.
So corporations were thinking why should women be the only ones who can extort a bunch of money from lonely dudes… why not us too?
Only one way to find out, I guess. But still, a lot of this stuff comes from the high end that eventually trickles down, and I’ve never heard any discoveries that claim to have solved the problem. You’d think that since the military would be all over this tech, their limitless budgets would have stated they have sickness-free headsets. But in all these years, nothing.
It isn’t a problem with screen technology or processing technology or anything like that. We aren’t going to “tech” our way out of this.
It is a biological problem and as such, I think the appeal of VR will always be rather niche.
Even the best selling VR headset that I found online was the Quest 2 and it “only” sold like 15M units (honestly way more than I ever expected) with everything else being considerably lower volume. Compare that to the number of Nintendo Switches sold (130M) and you start to see how small the VR market is. I am very curious to see how the Sony VR2 will end up selling. I would love to get a pair, but I think all these headsets will be short lived.
Nissan’s marketshare in Europe is around 2%. They aren’t exactly sacrificing a huge percent of sales by doing this even if a huge percent of people are simply not ready yet.
I think you give them too much credit.
… but, but, but all the zoomers in here like to act like they are savvy when it comes to scams and they always seem to think they know better than everyone else.
It’s funny you say that because there was someone on Reddit that would argue with people who stated that trucks are a ton bigger than they used to be. Their shtick was that trucks of yore and today are within a fraction of an inch.
100% agree. Google has the same problem. They are like hyper 5 year olds chasing the next shiny ball that gets their attention and they forget about all the other cool toys they already have. Products take generations to get refined enough for non-early adopters to buy. But way too few products from these companies get a long enough life to get multiple generations
This is far from new. The best selling vehicle in the US has been the F150 for some 30+ years now and the top 5 spots have typically been pickups from GM and Ram/Dodge.
Do we seriously not know to flip the rear view mirror switch at night?!?
She looks like a funny little goofball.
Who else would love to see a phone similar to the G1 get released again? Modern specs, larger screen, but a similar housing design, just less clunky.
(Almost) Everything is greenwashing because ultimately that’s what consumers want. They don’t really care about making something more environmentally friendly, they simply want to feel better with false claims and splashy marketing.
The whole environmental angle that FW are taking seems OK, but if they are too expensive or don’t make a good product or fall behind the competition, then it simply won’t work. I just found out my old laptop shit the bed, so I would absolutely take a serious look at what FW offers.
One of the things I absolutely hate about their marketing material is this idea that you can buy a module that adds a X port or Y connector to the laptop. Just build those ports into the goddamn laptop from the get go. Every extra module you add, every extra seam on the chassis, every extra cable there is, is an extra failure point in thw product and for something that is mobile, that’s not a great thing. I like the repairability angle they are pushing, but if all the extra modules introduce more failures then you won’t have happy customers.
I love my shield, so while ot is rather expensive and it seems like there won’t be future models, I still would have bought it.
Mostly bullshit because the ultimate goal of college isn’t to make you term basic facts which you need to graduate, instead the ultimate goal is to teach you how and where to learn about new developments in your field or where to look up Information which you don’t know or don’t remember.
Wouldn’t that data be stored in some kind of database?
