I like some of their developer products that said… Wtf is with their marketing department? I’m a techy and play some games but if someone asked me to buy them a Xbox I honestly don’t know which one is best… Xbox one series S? I think??

Now atleast on Playstation I know it’s ps5 as it’s the biggest number.

You want Nintendo… Switch as it’s a different enough name to make it stick.

Imagine going to but a truck… Do you want a Ford f150, a Ford f150 series x or a ford f150 series s? Now keep in mind a Ford f150 can’t go on any roads built in last 5 years and if you pick the wrong series letter your speed is capped at 30mph…

Don’t get me started on visual studio vs visual studio code…

Yes, but how many of these niche communities are there? Hell, lemmy itself is a niche community and everybody here should take a stand against this sort of stuff occurring here.

So really it’s in a few days iwfu(I will fuck up)

Granted but still bad naming convension. In comparison which is better Playstation 4 or Playstation 5?

Yeah, I understand the whole different kernal thing but that’s the type of thing that the average consumer shouldn’t have to know to follow your program naming scheme.

Yes… And the sequels? I still don’t know if Xbox one s or x box one x is the higher end model…

I have no love for Microsoft but their naming is one of the worst parts… Let’s make a game console! We’ll call it Xbox!.. That sold well let make another! We’ll call it xbox360… Time for a refresh on the gaming console! We’ll call it Xbox one… Another refresh but this time let’s make two versions! We’ll call them Xbox one series s and x box one series s!

Or our popular ide is bloated and people are asking for a light weight ide… What’s our current ide called? Visual studio but alot of people abbreviate it to vs! Let’s call the new one vscode! Do they have anything in common or share functionality or shortcuts? No

Don’t get me started on windows… 3.1… 95…nt…98…2000…me…vista…7…8…10…11 like wtf???

This depends on the area of medical device. I work in medical device but totally different from this, mine get implanted into your body.

1. I doubt many people have the knowledge to to truly troubleshoot our devices beyond what the doctor is allowed to do. We need a bunch of expensive and specialized hardware to troubleshoot.

2. We are legally required to investigate and report any complaints(https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfmaude/search.cfm) . If we don’t get the complaint we can’t investigate and report it.

3. If a certain number(honestly I don’t know the specific number) of complaints occur we are legally required to create a corrective action to help the patients immediately (or as soon as possible) and a preventive action to ensure it doesn’t effect other patients. If a person has an issue and “repaired” it themselves they don’t get counted in this and as such could cause more patients to suffer.

While I agree with right to repair I think certain things should be exempt. That said then there should be a requirement of the manufacturer to ivestigate/repair the equipment.

No, I replace some of them, Whatever needs it’s. For example this is actually a peripheral year so my monitors are good, my desk is good, I’m 50/50 on my chair but I’m planning to replace my speakers.

No, I replace some of them, Whatever needs it’s.

I tend to recommend a 3 year cycle. Year 1 upgrade peripherals (speakers, monitors, maybe chair, keyboard, mouse etc) year 2. Upgrade video card and hard drives. year 3. Upgrade motherboard, ram and cpu. Year 4 repeat year 1

With this you can you can do 95% of the latest stuff with “good” stuff (think XX70 cards rather then 80 or 90 series) since you are never that outdated on any portion.

Has path of exile 2 been released yet? I remember watching the announcement maybe 5 years ago?

But… Theft is hard!

Speed traps I can sit on my ass, get up every 20 minutes and get a bonus for how much revenue I brought in…

The other day I wanted to know when the first day of summer officially was. So I searched “first day of summer 2024”…before it would give me a big bold answer(June 20tg if anyone is curious)… Now I got a full page of car ads for model year 2024

Yes, and those are the ones I make.

See the corroding part scares me. Actual electrodes planted in the brain should never corrode. The company I work for actually makes brain implants(no, not nueralink) so I know it’s possible.

That stuff is EXPENSIVE though … So he must of cheaped out with a cheaper metal and that’s why it corroded.

You’re looking at this backwards. If there is unreal tournament 2004 there must be unreal engine 2004…

I work for a medical device manufacturer and you are missing a important reason for that exception. Yes human lives are on the line. In addition WE (meaning my company) are responsible for finding out why it broke and how we will prevent other devices we make from breaking.

We make a device and say it will last 10 years, 2 years later it stops. We have to replace it, We have to investigate to the best of our ability, We have to report our findings to the government, if several cases happen We need to come up with a prevention for the future dailures(or prevention if severe enough). We have entire departments for this. It is our burden not the consumer and it’s our burden so we have enough evidence to determine root cause and final solution so we can prevent further failures.

Did you look at the source code? If not open the source and zoom out…

Wonder of we feed this into an Ai what would happen… https://github.com/mame/quine-relay
