I haven't used Soulseek in 2 decades. IMO, this sort of behaviour is not legit.

For movies/TV shows, try rutracker.org. The interface is in russian, but the torrents almost always include english audio tracks for US/UK movies. Movies from other countries typically do include the original audio track and english subs.

They have a tone of older torrents, with some relatively rare content. There are some strange nuances such as SD rips are often posted with Xvid encoding (even new ones) and HD releases have a rule where they need to include all known russian Dubs/MVO/DVO/AVO audio tracks, so a large part of the file is audio.

But the good thing is that, even low health torrents often eventually have a seed appear. They have a massive networks of seeds/peers that are actually "federated" with lots of other trackers).

For relatively high seed/peer content you can also basically stream the release via "Download in sequential order" and "Download first and last piece first". I regularly essentially stream movies via this method.

They are decent for music too. Video games will likely be challenging if you don't speak russian and many releases actually don't include the original language.

 

I am genuinely curious how this will work and how games will be supported

The so-called AI engine is supposed to help gamers lose less with features like AI Skysight which scans the game's mini map in real time for threats and then points them out to the player.

Seems pretty wild to release $950/$900 (realistically will be over $1000 out of pocket) monitors with DP 1.4.

Fair point. I guess this was more of a casual post, so I didn't think too much about it.

I would have preferred if they switched to new keyboard model in version 8.x by default.

I am a relatively light Linux user. Raspberry Pi headless via DietPi/Debian for NAS/Media server/torrents/PiHole and some experiments with self hosted services on major cloud services. I prefer to stick to defaults whenever possible.

It's definitely just my opinion. Honestly did not mean to imply otherwise.

I would almost prefer them to just switch to the new keybindings by default in version 8.0.

 

I almost feel like this a somewhat pointless feature. It's almost easier to just learn the default ones as opposed to adding "-modernbindings" or creating an "enano" variant/copy.

 

The silver lining (if it even exists) seems to be that they are at least focused on more local "edge" scenarios for generative "AI".

 

2.5 KW PSU, that's a crazy power supply.

Not sure why fans needs USB-C, but what do I know?

I wonder if "others" under "Linux Distributions (split)" is mostly SteamOS (arch-based)?

This is more of "straw poll" as it's limited to self-reported users of gamingonlinux.com.

Yeah, since the fabs switch from planer designs, the node naming schemes have been marketing derived.

It's not going to be affordable, especially at retail (desktop). AMD know they have they upper hand over intel in this particular area.

This seems to be targeted for 2033.

And costs are not going to go down. We've hit the point were new developments in chip fabrication do not lead to lower costs (perhaps cost per unit of performance, but that's a different discussion).

That is a nice looking case, although it costs as much the SBC.

Good to see they have a in-built adapter for regular HDMI.

Hmm, I've only seen it on desktop, guess the mobile view is messed up. :(
