This HDMI brazen monopoly can only mean one thing -
That this problem is related to gathering intelligence.
Google maps in EU becomes retarded, click on small map in resoults no longer will take you to object location another genius regulations (or just VPN lobbysts).
controlling the supply of a commodity allows for setting the price far ABOVE cost, which causes profit. On free markets (supply free to adjust to demand) this profit-SIGNAL would ATTRACT competition to provide supply themselves (profit to be earned), which increases the supply until it meets demand (at cost). *The lesson here is - monopoles are being created by anti-competitive rules.*
@@joansparky4439 of course, yet even with long standing legislation prohibiting those ‘rules’ for over a century, why this is allowed? It’s not about profits here , Microsoft Google and Mac OS can operate in chorus to maintain compliance , but the open source community is being blocked So its users can’t see what must be recent utilized functions that are using these ubiquitous high data conduits .
Is display port to HDMI port converter could solve the problem?
What Jensen actually meant was: Don't learn to code, buy my gpus! Buy my gpus! Keep the stock price up!
He used to parrot similar things at the height of the crypto bubble.
Considering NVIDIA's stock price depends on selling a single overpriced product, I'm beginning to think he sees the deflation of the AI bubble coming soon and he's getting desperate.
Remember: "The more you buy, the more you save!"
Remember when nvidia ceo Jen-Hsun Huang faked a fermi gpu to deceive the public, the press, business partners and private customers.
Remember ngreedia's ceo Jen-Hsun Huang who faked a fermi gpu to trick the public.
Why do my comments get deleted again UA-cam?
Remember when Jen Hsun Huang faked the fermi gpu in official nvidia presentation.
Pretty sure I've seen this exact thing the NVIDIA CEO is talking about in several movies, tv shows and animes. A medieval farming society built by the descendants of an extremely high tech society that collapsed because after a few generations no one knew how to control or repair the technology that was so critical to their way of life.
Ya, some star trek episode has this, like a AI custodian, but after generations no one knew how it worked. Ohya, in the Matrix 2 that old Zion counsellor guy was talking to Neo about how he doesn't know how these machines work but they work for us...heh
Tsutomu NIhei wrote something like this in the manga "Blame!" lol that was back in 1997
This is the history of almost every jRPG ever written. For example in Tales of Phantasia features a city about halfway through call Thor which was actually the AI run capital to an ancient super power. Over an unspecific stupendously long time the cities power supplies failed, causing the shield to collapse inward toward the core of the city and allowing the ocean to gradually crush what was left of the Thor civilization. Some people might know this as the premise for Stargate Atlantis as well.
@@eideticexGosh dangit now I wanna binge Atlantis again 😂
He should be telling them to stop Programming and Learn2Code instead. Because if you start saying "afaik" and other terms you should sanitize your inputs basic bro and quit with the uncreative groupthink. Any collective cult without individuality is doomed to perish no matter how many orgies and orgs protect your endangered ass.
nvidia ceo making this statement sounds like he himself is an ai trying to discourage humans
Hahaha yeah 😂
🤣
"Tell me you're trying to raise the stock price without telling me you're trying to raise the stock price"
Apparently I should stop coding and hope the proprietary gods will make everything (and then see that they'll make it worse because of their greed)!
I learned scripting before the big AI boom (because I didn't want to depend on other people for scripts, especially when they block me with a brick from viewing their code).
man I hate the modern news cycle, every article copy pastes the inflammatory part but it's actually so mundane
if you watch the original clip, huang intentionally went against the popular advice of "learn to code" while encouraging people to go hard into other technologies like biology/education/farming. all while hyping his company's tech
standard corporate fare, literally nothing to see here
Heads up: Display Port isnt open source either. Its actually got the same issues. Its just that DP has less members than HDMI and are less likely to reject things. With that being said, this is why you need something that was open source from the jump.
no? DP doesn't have royalties
@@idk-sy3iu Not asking for money for its usage is different from being "open source/closed source"
I think VGA was technically open source... But people don't want to use that for obvious reasons.
I guess that means USB is our last open option? Or are they just as closed as HDMI/DP? The only thing I don't like about them is their naming convention.
@@BRBS360 usb actually uses display port😂
can nvidia ai code a stable fully featured open source driver for linux?
Maybe that’s their plan😂
Fair point
Damn, got 'em!
I can't even get Google/Bard to write a simple OpenGL renderer for an E-Book reader !!!
HDMI also has DRM built-in at the _hardware level_ ! This is why I always use DisplayPort where available.
HDCP has given me so many headaches trying to connect laptops and KVM switches with HDMI. Cannot imagine what else it could be. DP just worked every time.
@@Slugbunnysorry to tell you but displayport also has HDCP. (Even DVI-D has it)
The only ways I know of are either getting a splitter that just happens to (oh what a coincidence ) strip HDCP or going analog, which comes with its own limitations...
wait! what? hardware drm?
@@Akab Oh, seems you're right, sorry about that ! Still a dick move by the HDMI Forum, though.
@@seymourtoayoure surprised?
HDMI should no longer be the standard.
Don't buy it, Force it out !
@@hammerheadcorvette4unfortunately it’s too dominant to be avoided
It’s called a standard for a reason
usb-c baybeee
@@kaishedan37 uses DisplayPort protocol which is also not open source
Never going to happen because unlike DisplayPort HDMI has DRM tied to it. Why do you think everything media related uses HDMI instead of DisplayPort? DRM. You will never see a TV without an HDMI port for that exact reason. If DisplayPort became the standard, the only way that TVs would be allowed to have it would be if DisplayPort added DRM just like HDMI.
Edit: Apparently, DisplayPort uses the exact same DRM. So, um, yeah, I don't really understand why DisplayPort doesn't have the same issue.
As far as I know Jensen Huang isn't a software engineer, he is an electrical engineer. Why does he think he can judge that sort of thing? It's probably to add to his AI hype, but it still really annoys me that he said that.
It's exactly what he is doing. They bought into AI in a big way, they want to get more money before the bubble bursts.
if ai is the future of coding, why dosent nvidia ai code a open source driver for their graphics cards on linux?
ego
it might end up doing a better job
Because Nvidia is afraid that AI can replace Nvidia.
because it's more advantageous for them to keep it proprietary.
@@MrGamelover23whoooosh
I own a Switch and a physical copy of Tears of the Kingdom! Why should it be illegal to play Tears of the Kingdom at full speed?
Exactly!!
Especially how would they sue you if you dump the game using your own device?
That is something I can still agree on albeit I'd love everything digital to be like GOG games or OCRemix music.
Simple answer: because then you wouldn't buy the Switch 2 in order to get the hardware boost necessary to play TOTK at full speed.
Remember that nintendo is just a small indie company with just a handful of employees. They NEED your monetary support. 🙏
Literally just play it on the switch, no reason to emulate other than old consoles or piracy
@@Vylpes Everyone has different reasons to use emulators.
I'm also less interested in emulating current systems, however, I prefer taking the Deck on the go compared to my Switch with its small and fragile joycons.
So when I am in the mood to play some Super Mario Bros. Wonder or Mario Kart, I can just play those on the Deck as well.
Yuzu does what Nintendon't want
Nah they don't want anything yuzu does, they want money AND for others to get it
Nintendo has better (not necessarily good ) business practices than most game companies, but they really need to stop with their obsession with taking everything they can to legal action.
Even with their old stuff its like they've gradually cared less and less about preserving their history and throw their toys out the pram when someone does it for them; if they didn't want people to go to piracy they should aim for easy accessibility without ludicrous prices.
Nintendo never wants pro-consumer practices unless its profitable. That is in no way a good business practice to have especially since nonprofit but cheaper ways of pro-consumer practices almost always attracts the right consumers for not only revenue sales but general popularity. I wonder if it isn't Nintendo that can get a clause to fight against pro-emulation but Yuzu instead for a way to promote pro-emulation that can both fight piracy and protect both recreational and retro emulation so people can still play what they love without spending tens of thousands of dollars trying to play it "the legal way"
What's baffling about Nintendo, and what I think Christopher is getting at, is that the hard parts of running a game company comes like second nature for them. They casually pump out masterpiece after masterpiece, which you can buy once and get a complete package, and they do it without any horror stories about employee treatment coming out. It's the comparative no brainer of PR that seems to mystify them
I would make a joke about Yuzu being the true plastic population. But only a pop music nerd would get it.
I don't think people understand what will happen if humans forget how to write code and leave everything to the AI. It is scary as hell. The whole world runs on code. You can't have the AI run unsupervised.
I'm convinced people that say ai is the future don't actually know what they're talking about.
Sometimes i can't help but imagine they think someone just presses a button on code that just popped into existence lol
@@thatoneannoyingtornadosire8755 I think AI is extremely promising for doing initial intensive work to then be presented to a human, with humans supervising it and performing random checks to guarantee as much as possible it acting correctly, both the direct user giving feedback for what it should improve, and many humans who specialize in AI fixing its problems
Kids these days are too busy trying to figure out what gender they are... much less what career path they will take... ( maybe it's the same thing )...
Using an AI for coding in the future without having coding skill yourself will probably be like using a drag and drop website creator. Like, yeah, you can cover a lot of the more common use cases. But a lot of what learning to code is actually about is being precise with what you want. Figuring out what you want the program to do in uncommon situations is important and even if we end up living in a world where business people will be able to get an AI to write code for them, they'll still have many many decisions to make about how their program exactly works and wow, it sure would be nice to have training in how to be precise like that. Maybe somebody could even make some kind of syntax designed for precise expression of complex instructions instead of a vague and ambiguous language like English.
Thanks for the news!
Omg... the HDMI problem is disgusting. I mean I use Display Port for PC related stuff, my TV doesn't even have DP and even modern consoles lack DP. All the Xbox/PS5 owners need a HDMI 2.1 TV, to make use of the full next gen potential. Meanwhile: Display Port supports high refreshrates for A LONG time now.
standardization organization that doesn't want its spec to be public?. . . what the fuck
They want to make sure they don't miss any royalty fees... they don't care about standards, they care about profits.
"Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master"
@@TankEnMate Great quote, thanks for sharing
Similar to other standards like h.264, that's why we're transitioning to AV1.
That's what happens when someone has a monopoly!
Pretty much all TVs, Blu-ray players, receivers and consoles come with HDMI ports and HDMI ports only!
Imagine if Nitendo said to yuzu to work togheter to actually have nitendo store inside instead of ability to pirate.Both yuzu devs and nitendo would profit.
I like how Gnome merged VRR after Nick filmed this lol.
Gnome had been called out for VRR and HDR fairly publicly multiple times. Some of the patches and issue requests have been sitting in their bug trackers for more than 5 years. It wasn't until competing DEs started supporting them that Gnome even cared about it.
4:15 Ah, another episode of the s**t CEOs say! 😂
Always a nice show, we have new episodes very often!
Trying to sue an emulator is like trying to sue a web browser. "It allows for you to break things". Yeah well it will only effect the device I purchased, so it shouldn't matter to anyone but me.
I'll never stop coding. Even if AI can do it better (which it won't).
I have found that AI is excellent as a search engine for specific logic solutions. Faster than hitting places like Stack.
Obviously only as good as the questions you can ask. Another example of where experts will be better able to make AI a productivity enhancement.
The thing is, Sony tried to sue a company making a PS1 or PS2, I'm not sure which, emulator, and they actually lost, unfortunately, that company being sued had to shit down because they didnt have funds to continue post lawsuit.
Not to mention Nintendo sued the makers of the Game Genie and Nintendo lost that suit as well. Yuzu must fight this lawsuit or else it could have a chilling effect on the emulation industry.
Not just emulation, but also reverse engineering. Like those reverse engineered PC ports of Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time, while the code is 100% original, they still require the user to provide their own ROM for the assets. According to this lawsuit, there is no way to legally obtain a ROM, ergo those projects encourage and facilitate piracy, ergo they're illegal.
In fact, Nintendo's claim that it's unlawful to run software on anything other than the original target platform could even set precedent to have Wine/Proton shut down.
@@RunePonyRamblingsThey even fight fanworks which anyone would consider perfectly legal like music covers or even fan drawings of their characters.
Fighting emulation is just the tip of the iceberg which they rather do not wanna make melt.
we also shouldn't learn how to drive because the ai cars will be ready any minute now...
reminds me of that old song "in the year 2525" you won't need to eat or have eyes; a machine gonna do all that for you.
I don't have a flying, bus or train license but I do board all these. What's the difference for you who does the driving, an ai or a human? Granted the car gives immense freedom that I want to keep.
@@costascostas1760 what are you talking about?
7:41 Funny you said that, I had the worst Plasma 6 experience someone could ever have - at first, it switched to a very ugly SDDM theme without asking me first, then it took like 2 minutes to load my user, and the funniest part is that it couldn't even load the shutdown confirmation screen. And it's not just my installation, the iso file does the same. And I didn't even know that it was released because I updated it through Discover and there wasn't anything warning me about "new Plasma version" or anything, just that the System Updates were really large.

I'm SO excited for NVK, it could actually solve ALL of my problems with using Wayland
Totally, it looks really good!
Buying AMD from now on could also solve ALL your problems with Wayland!
Time to deprecate hdmi
I think it's even more important today and in the future to teach people about coding. Not only does it build great problem solving skills, but AI will be there to help you and guide you to making programs. These large language models are tools, not replacements for humans. We have seen proof that the best use of these AIs is a skilled worker using it as assistant.
Excellent video 👍 Thank you 💜
I just installed Plasma 6 myself! Runs flawlessly from the Copr repository!
Companies want us to be in their monopoly, but Open source guys be like: I bought a game, I will use every thing of them! Btw, Open source apps offer such things that companies can't provide.
great, just when I was considering abandoning my career as a developer and opening a street tacos stand, how timely!
I used to have this problem on Plasma 5 X11 (laptop with nvidia gpu) when some games would freeze the computer when I turned the "allow compositor to do I forgot what to windows" option on and other games that would crash when I turned it off. Now with Wayland that's no longer an issue. Unfortunately, there's the annoying bug with the freezing clock and freezing icons on the task manager, but it goes away if I switch to the other screen and then back again. And then there's another issue with some games that run like crap if anti-aliasing is turned on too high. All in all, my experience with Wayland is better than the one I had with X11.
Thanks for the Information :)
I bought (and still have) a packaged copy of Bleem!, and remember when Sony not only sued a *legal* piece of software out of existence using bullying, they put rootkit malware on music CDs. I have not bought a Sony product of any kind since. I'm now a father of two kids, kids who now have purchased their last Nintendo product.
Thanks for the information
The NVK devs working on a universal Vulkan implementation is great! It will benefit the Intel Xe driver team a lot, as afaik, the only thing holding intel cards back in Linux is a lack of Vulcan support. And with their speed, if this is completed in a year or so, with a better idea of how to implement this now that they have experience with NVK, I can't wait to see what they come up with.
Nintendo does so much to deny themselves profit and offend their user base, it's a wonder they make any money at all
Gracias por las noticias 👍
I learned so much from this video. Thank you!
Ah, classic Nofriendo moment. I refuse to sell my kidneys and organs just to play old Nintendo games for old consoles that are no longer on sale.
Nintendo does not make literally any money off of old consoles that they no longer sell. They lose nothing.
But I guess that's all the more reason to sue people so they can make the extra pocket change.
Doesn't a copyright run out after 25 years too? Some of these games are getting old...
@@cybernit3 It was supposed to run it out after 14 years - at least, that's how the Founding Fathers set it up in America, IIRC - but now it's been lobbied by incredibly corrupt corporations into being like SEVENTY FIVE years AFTER the creator dies! Like fucking hell, if anything do 7.5, or after the creator dies, whichever comes first, not ten times the first and the second too, in many cases being in total a full fucking century. Utter insanity!
@@cybernit3 Apparently not, according to DMCAtendo.
@@cybernit3No, copyright lasts for like the life of the original creator plus 50 years after death.
What distro are you running to demonstrate kde plasma 6
Thank you.
11:54 it’s a good thing that DisplayPort exists.
DisplayPort is better in every way compared to HDMI. It is an open standard, it can handle more bandwidth and thus higher resolutions and framerates, it supports daisy-chaining displays (one DP cord can transfer mutiple display signals) and it hase native support with USB-C (on ports which supports it).
So forget about HDMI and just use DP. For me HDMI is only needed on TVs.
It's going to be difficult for wine/wayland to hit feature parity with the x11 implementation, since wayland is still a moving target to some degree (even though it's been in development for 15 years... yeah, wayland is already ancient by PC software standards). I am glad to see active support for it coming to wine though.
If the HDMI problem is not solved, we should make an appeal to the EU. The EU promotes Open Source, and can easily force such widely supported standards to be accessible for Open Source development. Currently, there is a requirement for e.g. all patents on a technology that is in widespread use, to be licensable for a "reasonable" fee by any third party. Alternatively, it is not allowed to defraud the public by forming a consortium, and it sure sounds like the HDMI consortium is doing exactly that.
Crazy news 😯
I want to add to the plasma 6 release: any additional downloaded widget needs to get updated to for the new plasma version!
About HDMI 2.1…. Would it be better to switch in future to USB-C to have no problems on open source implementation?
Probably not. USB-C uses a (modified) Displayport Signal afaik and Display Port is also proprietary. You'd need to develop a totally new open standard and get hardware producers to adopt it. Gonna be tough
Usb C uses displayport
I feel like nobody's tried to be crowd funded properly. Like, Mossy Earth isn't software but is sort of open source and they seem to be doing good in terms of finances
11:00 Well, the standard I know is Displayport, it's recommanded for gaming, it's made for gaming.
Will OpenCL apps run on new Mesa NVK drivers?
Are you going to test NVK vs proprietary drivers when it becomes included and turned on by default?
does this mean i just won't have higher res with hdmi if i use amd? planning on building a computer, but i won't need higher res. i would like to use something different if possible, but not sure what i could use as a replacement. i hear dp isn't open either, and no idea about dvi
Does the hdmi driver limitation for amd affect setups where the monitor is connected with its hdmi port to the display port port on the graphics card? I have an amd gpu and can select 120Hz in settings and I can get 120 fps in games while enabling vsync
Update to my last comment: After a few days of thinking about it, yeah although *I* might not be wanting to emulate current gen, emulation is vital to game preservation, which is something I'd most likely like once the switch becomes "retro", so yeah, the work is vital now for the future. Apologies for the lapse in judgement
Godot appearing in the "Highest-Rated Developer Tools" section (6:23) was a pleasant surprise.
Linux & Open Source News - best news
Would you please make a review about Fedora Phosh - which devices supported and your experience with it as daily phone!
I mean, if Jensen says so we just use A.I. running on his GPUs to decompile closed source drivers locally.
If someone like Nintendo comes around, we just tell it was done for education purposes.
Two monsters hit with one BFG.
My Prediction about LLMs and code: It will lead to more TDD requirement, because it will quickly make bugs visible and if generated along the code shows the actual case range.
Tests are the Documentation!
You can very easily do 4K@120 or 5K@240 on Linux using an AMD card. Just not with HDMI. Displayport ftw. My 32" 4K 144hz monitor is quite happy on Debian 12. Now finding a television with DP inputs is another matter.
Yers, but we want to do it with our TVs!
I do know on Windows that Nvidia enables rebar per game basis depending if it improves performance or not, since it doesn’t always improve performance. But maybe it is different with Proton/Vulkan compared to DirectX on Windows.
Using kde neon. A complete mess with my setup .some apps don’t work and the App Store keep crashing. Never had an issue before the upgrade. Did a fresh install same issues. I will wait a week before I try another fresh install.
Give it a few weeks, I never update immediately for that reason
@@bvd_vlvdtotally agree ☺️
4:15 - It is NOT a stupid thing to say : At All... I've been in IT for 20 years and now I hardly code anymore... I don't need to hire subcontractors for overflow... and entry level as of NOW Is Gone. The only people that don't know this ... are the ones that simply : Don't want to hear it... Coding is DEAD ( not this minute and not this year )... even before GPT the sector is overloaded with hundreds of applicants per job post. And that number was increasing by the month. Graphic artist : Gone, Translators : Gone, Teachers: Gone... I learned the basics of JAVA and deployed an app in 5 weeks ( normally months ). Mainly because my google search time is down 95%+. And if you still don't think so... and you are using the Paid Version of GPT. What percent of the time do you still go to Google (or any search engine) VS using GPT... Think of all those businesses 30 years ago that didn't take the Net seriously... You don't even know their names...
Regarding HDMI, if it's not open, it's not a standard. It's just another proprietary interface.
Did you know that the linux market share is now at 4.03%.
Really? Can you link a source?
5:37 well played SKYNET.
4:57 "XYZ will kill coding" yep I remember the 90s where the IDE were supposed to get rid of the experienced developers (too expensive)
Or the design methods - like UML, Merise & Co - were supposed to fire all the developers because of the automatic code generation...
i cannot run opengl games on wine wayland like spaceengine, but dxvk games works fine like split second 2010
I was about to run an OpenGL game on Wine-Wayland with the dev release that introduced the initial OpenGL driver work.
Display Port works haven't used HDMI in a decade.
Then you must definitely not have used a TV!
I disagree on hdmi.. I used DVI or dual dvi and then DP because hdmi was always behind.. and yea many people will in the future use DP-alt mode over usb C or should just stick to DP
12:04 I know it sounds crazy and all, but you could just turn the refresh rate down to something reasonable.
Can you pin Google Chrome (Flatpak) to the taskbar in KDE 6 without getting duplicates?
I agree with comments of the Nvidia's CEO - he's right - I also agree that in 20 or 30 years programmers will be obsolete. I compare these AI's we have to a Ford Model T. In a few decades - or even earlier with AI acceleration - we'll start seeing Ferraris. Definitely do not learn coding.
Even if human verification will be needed, the amount of coders needed will be substantially lower than today.
HDMI should cease to exist. I used DP from the get go and advised some people to try it as well that some said it was an eye opener for them, which only solidify my opinion that HDMI is just holding everything back.
I was wondering why Nintendo is not suing PalWorld. Now I know they were too busy suing Yuzu
What do you call a specification good enough to generate machine code from?
Source code.
I suspect that the AI produces reasonable boilerplate or generates just enough to make every programming endeavour a brown field exercise. Everyone's favourite type.
Hey nick, there's a little error on the thumbnail 🤝
VRR has been merged for Gnome 46!
As an experimental feature, but that's quite shocking that they approved the out of band patch at all! 😳
I don't use GNOME myself but finally
At long last! I expect it to be pretty stable already if the Gnome devs are willing to merge it, so I'll be turning that setting on and enjoying it.
Display port, for computers, is even better. I won't miss HDMI. YMMV.
The default workspace shortcut of KDE is not as good as Gnome.
We know by know both have their ups and downs!
I do 4K @ 144Hz with NVIDIA.
Looking forward to CachyOS bringing KDE Plasma 6 😀
AI will never replace programmers. Even if AI were to be used extensively for generating code, there would be "programmers" telling the AI exactly what it needs to create.
Besides that, there is the copyright issue: AI's are usually trained using Open Source code, which is probably not allowed by their license. Have you ever seen an AI give credit for the copyrighted code? Or tell which license it must be under, according to the code it is based on?
I'm a verification engineer, my job is to literally verify the code written by humans or by help of ai. There's some humans who make a lot of similar mistakes so ai trained on it will make the same mistake or even add such hidden mistakes it's hard to find. And out industry is snort on staff as demands soars
NVidia CEO doesn't even make a hello world in his entire life.
If AI can replace coders they can also replace gpu chip designers and gpu chip designer ceos
i installed kde 6 in arch and i got multiple crashes, visual issues, many windows that were broken...
Keep us posted, I think plenty of people with deeper pockets them myself would love to support a Yuzu legal aid.
3:53 they did though
I'm actually not so sure that humans will always be needed to check AI-generated code. Models are getting better and better, and even with the current level of technology it would be feasible to basically set up three models, one to actually write the code, one to run the code and evaluate it against the specified requirement, and one to evaluate the code and look for possible vulnerabilities. This will only get better in time. I'm a former machine learning researcher, I worked mostly with statistical models rather than neural networks. At the time I was quite skeptical of using the term "AI", but I think we may actually be getting there.
I went running back to 5.27. 6 needs more time.
I don't think the statement of Nvidia's CEO is all that wrong. AI had been mostly a theoretical discipline until two years ago, when suddenly ChatGPT was announced. Why can't we expect further sudden advancements in AI, which will significantly improve the technology? Also, I don't think Nvidia's CEO meant that AI will replace coding altogether, he probably meant that AI might significantly reduce the available jobs and make a software engineering career unsustainable or too hard to achieve. There's a market oversaturation in places like the USA already and it's expected to get even worse, as companies move their offices abroad to cheap places like India, in order to lower costs.
Its pretty crazy when you stop and think about how many independant projects you take advantage of to have a working system. It amazes me that some of them are maintained at all when you think about how relatively unglamorous their work is.
Can't we just switch to USB-C instead of using HDMI? Or would there be no gain?
USB-C video is DisplayPort btw.
08:26 So much this. So many open source projects are only available because big corporate sugar daddies let people have some breadcrumbs. People talk big but are actually cheap as fuck. And then they wonder why normal people prefer polished proprietary software that is written by paid full time devs. Devs should aggressively ask for money if people use their work regularly.
Yeah I’m not listening to Jensen 😂 Plus I like the problem solving challenge
Even if AI does all the coding in the future, I code because I enjoy coding.
Now they need to do XWayland Video Bridge or something to allow outdated apps to screenshare on Wayland
Nintendo's arguments do not hold any water. Yuzu themselves are doing what they can to discourage piracy (not that they can stop anyone doing it). Dumping the games is legal as long as it is for personal use and obtaining the keys can be done legally. The Yuzu devs have made a response: they'll fight this suit. Apparently that Patreon money is a descent enough fund.
Jensen seems to be blinded by the AI craze. Or maybe he is just salty that the open source community managed to hammer out a really fast driver for his GPUs in no time at all.
AI will never win in chases, AI will never recognize complex pictures, AI will never win in GO, Poker, LOL, learn how to compose music, paint, and for sure will never write complex essay or be able to chat... and now we have true Nostradamus which predicts that AI will never code better than human...
10 years ago we said the same thing for LLMs.
