Students for sure 100%, we've got classes of 8-year-olds with cellphones, and its a flapjacking nightmare because they do stupid shit that would land anybody slightly older in jail and then the parents have the audacity to blame teachers, and the...
I would have assumed phone ban was for students, not staff.
And in that example, they just need to tell the person that will walk with the child (or look the class while the teacher walk with the I imagine very young child) to come here, they do...
Yeah it’s 100% a policy issue and a clear case of the policies not matching our actual workflows. But if you create a broken policy with a non functioning work flow you can’t get mad at people who aren’t able to get work done as needed when...
One hopes the call is supposed to be discreet. Having said that, it seems like it would make more sense to call the office staff, not the principal/VP directly, if the latter are out of the office a lot. If you've got more than one, the staff...
Our schools have instituted this policy, and while I agree with it, there are far too many use cases that are complete bullshit without it.
If a teacher had a problem with a student and needed help, they would text the principal and the principal...
But would you REALLY want Half Life 3 being made by the same people who made Redfall, Halo Infinite, Starfield... etc?
Microsoft hasn't published a good game in a decade. Even Forza has fallen off the rails, and that one was gold.
Problem is Intel didn’t break any laws, they were being shitty, but there aren’t any laws against saying “If you order 100,000 of these we’ll sell them to you at a 20% discount”. The catch is Intel knew they would only need some 90,000 units at...
Yeah, but you can also just drag on ANY court case with appeals, did you know the Intel Vs AMD case from 2007 is STILL GOING in some territories?
So Microsoft can just drag them on.
Internally Google is scrambling.
BingGPT and other LLM’s cropping up are eating into their search market.
Googles search market fuels the data to their advertising engines, pair that with a rapid increase in Ad Blockers and tighter security...
Unironically probably makes the ransomware more reliable in its encryption/decryption.
Not that it matters much, anyway.
If they got that far to enable bitlocker, they already have admin permissions on the machine and you're already completely...
Valve is on track to sell more consoles than Microsoft
Already Microsoft lead on average daily sales has shrunk to less than 50%
Eventually Microsoft might give up making xbox & instead open up xbox OS to allow installation of Steam
I’m not so sure, the new PS5 coming at the end of the year will support it, Microsoft will be forced to update the XBox platform to even remain in the game, and the upcoming Switch will have Raytracing and all the DLSS goodies.
Expect non ray...
I think there needs to be one big asterisk here. With most games being multiplatform, and consoles using lower end AMD GPUs, ray tracing will probably not become standard for a while. Though I have not been watching console performance much as...
That just means Nvidia can safely tack a 14-25% to their cards for extra profits, but if their cards are exempt from the tariffs, but say AMD (who still has all their manufacturing in China) isn’t what will that potentially do to margins there.
Who makes Nvidia's FE cards? I think Nvidia wouldn't want too big of a gap for the board partners. Unless they plan on gradually phasing them out. Aren't their margins thinning?
Well when the US placed all those restrictions on Nvidia on what they could sell to China it’s easy to forget that those components are made in China.
Subsequently that means that those components can’t enter China for manufacturing, so Nvidia...
