kippinitreal , to Games in New Crazy Taxi title will be an open-world, massively multiplayer AAA game, according to Sega

If I had to guess why it didn't have split screen was the open world. My guess it streaming assets from two different places on a huge map was costly to do twice (memory wise). Atleast when it was designed/launched.

kippinitreal , to Technology in CATL battery successfully powers electric plane with 1,800-mile civil aircraft expected

Valid *Public

Sorry, I think I chose the wrong word, I mean Public i.e., not conspiratorial.

kippinitreal , (edited ) to Technology in CATL battery successfully powers electric plane with 1,800-mile civil aircraft expected

This is really great. Wendover Productions made an excellent video about electrification of flights a while ago.

Now the real question is: will world governments allow this Chinese technology into their countries? Protectionism is a valid *public reason to deny it, but I wonder if denying Chinese tech under the guise of national security a last ditch attempt from big oil lobbyists?

Or is that too far fetched and I'm just way to cynical.

kippinitreal , to British Films in Portrayal of character in Steve Coogan’s film The Lost King is defamatory, judge rules

I'd like to imagine the judge had to sit and watch the movie, then share his thoughts on the case. Its like a legal movie critic, but when he gives a 1 star review you go to jail lmao.

I know there's nuance, but still funny.

kippinitreal , to Technology in Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI

I think Windows 11 was supposed to be that clean break. They've reimplemented a lot of core functionality compared to XP & 7. If they're still getting breached then they obviously aren't serious about security.

kippinitreal , to Technology in Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI

Microsoft focused on security at this point is like a builder focusing on building strong foundations now that the house is built on top.

It's a little too late my dudes.

kippinitreal , to Android in The Google Pay app is dead

Oh that's interesting, I wasn't aware of this. Is it an unspoken policy? Or its an over reliance on "innovation first" pseudo-management?

kippinitreal , to Android in The Google Pay app is dead

Google often feels like a disorganized company with constantly shifting priorities, and a big reason behind that is the lack of top-down initiatives from the CEO. That means the real driving force behind most projects at Google are mid-level executives who show up with grand plans and then leave—either in disgrace or triumph—when those initial plans run their course.

Makes a lot of sense. There doesn't seem to be a unifying strategy behind anything google does. I also think theres a vicious circle going on here: google has a loyalty problem, which could be solved by long term thinking, usually done by loyal employees, but employees don't stick around long enough.

kippinitreal , to Technology in Sony Music opts out of AI training for its entire catalog

Don't like your first statement, but agree with your second.

kippinitreal , to Linux in Introducing image mode for Red Hat Enterprise Linux

RedHat source is accessible to registered red hat users. That is NOT open source. https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/furthering-evolution-centos-stream

kippinitreal , to Linux in Introducing image mode for Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Image mode builds on the success of open source projects such as bootc

I always think its icky when companies advertise open source projects in their propriety closed source one.

kippinitreal , to Programmer Humor in When everyone became paranoid

I think a lot of memes are missing the main point of how it was caught, the exploit caused a spike in CPU usage for a network call. That made no sense to the guy Messiah who found/reported it. FOSS software's strength is the number of critical eyes looking over each line of code you put out!
