Canada excluded from Google's expansion of AI chatbot Bard
  • No. Canada might have different laws, but they are no more stringent than the EU or California. Surely there is differing regulations, and might be the market size that had it dropped in priority.

    What have you been playing and what do you think of it? 7/16/23
  • Is it a hard game? I really want to grab it in August, but I'm worried I'm going to be skill locked early on. Is there a story difficulty or the like?

    ‘I’ve never seen heat this bad. It’s not normal’: Italy struggles as temperature tops 40C 118f
  • It's the lack of sure conditioning in Europe that makes it especially brutal.

    Sure, there are hotter climates but they are usually more prepared with AC. Certainly not always, I know.

    Steam Deck vs. ASUS ROG Ally Arch Linux Gaming Performance
  • Thanks for sharing -- I think that if I were to buy a handheld PC now, the ASUS ROG would be it. Having had a Steamdeck since release though, I don't think I could go back to not having the sleep/resume function for gaming, especially on the go. It's still not perfect for games that have some sort of always-online component (I don't blame Steam OS for that), but it's definitely the killer feature of the deck for me.

    Still though, the smaller size, reported quietness, screen and performance of the ROG at it's price point make me really excited for what options will be around when I decide to upgrade.

    What game encouraged you to make your new PC, or upgrade?
  • No single game has gotten me to upgrade my PC, however if RDR2 released on PC at the same time as consoles, I would have upgraded for it. I ended up buying a PS4 to play at launch, and bought it again once it came to Steam (didn't need to upgrade to run it by that point).

    My OnePlus 8 pro finally crapped out, need new phone suggestions
  • I'm on a Pixel 6 Pro, and love it. I've found the battery life more than enough for my needs (getting a day to a day and a half per charge), and while the finger print sensor isn't all that great, everything else more than makes up for it.

    If everything I've heard about the P7 being the more refined P6, that would be my choice if I had to replace my phone today. Hoping that the rumours of google going to flat displays for the 8 Pro are true.
