Before the ill-fated Stadia, Harrison helped lead Sony’s gaming efforts during the troubled launch of the PlayStation 3, at one point going so far as to brag that “nobody will ever use 100 percent of [the PS3’s] capability.” He then worked in Microsoft’s gaming division during the disastrous rollout of the Xbox One and its confused used game policies.
Steam Deck already does 1, 2 and 3.
Now pair it with constant nags (Enhance your experience by signing into a Microsoft account, Subscribe to Gamepass! Have you tried Copilot???), and Microsoft’s inability to ever add anything new to their controllers (bye bye Gyro and Touchpads) and you’ve lost me.
I’m OOTL on the news around this device, but if the joysticks that they install in the thing are just as shitty as the joysticks that they put in current Xbox controllers then there’s no chance I’d even consider buying one
Apart from the bait title it’s a reasonable article. If they’d have called it “Six things Microsoft need to do for their portable Xbox to compete with the Steam Deck” it could have had exactly the same content.
Wiedząc o tym, jak polskie władze używają Pegasusa i jemu podobne oprogramowanie, zalecam wszystkim działającym mieć uaktualniony system w telefonie. Serbia też jest demokracją.
Na Pegasusa aktualizacja nie ma za dużego wpływu - jadą na 0-dayach konsekwentnie. Bardziej pomagać ma… regularne restartowanie telefonu. Większość tych hacków nie utrzymuje się przez restart.
lol fat chance Microsoft is capable of launching a new hardware line and having the competency and staying power to be sucessful in 2025, maybe 5 years ago, but not today.
Arianespace hasn’t publicly disclosed the cost for an Ariane 6 launch, although it’s likely somewhere in the range of 80 million to 100 million euros, about 40 percent lower than the cost of an Ariane 5. This is about 50 percent more than SpaceX’s list price for a dedicated Falcon 9 launch.
With more launch, the price per rocket should decrease, but making it cost competitive will be an important mission if EU wants to launch hundreds of satellites in the future.
With more launch, the price per rocket should decrease
Should it? Are you referring to amortizing the costs of development, or optimizing the production cost of each rocket? No portion of Ariane 6 is reusable, so it’s not like they can get more launches out of each rocket…
Are you referring to amortizing the costs of development
Yes, I was thinking more amortizing the costs of development which will definitely get cheaper the more launch happening, but I guess it’s also possible for optimization of production, although I’m not expecting much from that.
If your day is just starting, maybe you need a coffee. There’s a distinct difference between Aryan (or Aryen in French) and Ariane (or Ariane in French).
Different words in different languages sounding the same is a wild launch to a crusade in 2025. Wait until you hear about Ariana Grande… the most Grand of all the Aryans. I know the additional letters won’t fool you.
