      California, what are you doing? Stop banning "gaming PCs", you ARE NOT helping the environment by doing that, you're just pissing a lot of people off... >:(

        It’s not a ban on gaming PCs lol, it’s a more of a cap to push big companies like Dell into stopping their pumping out pre-built energy inefficient shite into the market. This is quite literally going after big business for dirty tactics and ensuring there’s a still a viable market in a decade’s time, not sure what you’re on a mad one for mate

        It's very vague, at best. Where it currently stands, there are major loopholes that these SIs can (and most likely) WILL abuse. The amount of energy savings that this is going to accomplish is miniscule, and will create a lot of eWaste of PSUs that are fully functional that they have lying around.

        Instead of going after the big polluters (the oil industries/car manufacturers), we see politicians with their heads up their rears, yet again... Only in America would you see something this stupid...

      Deepslate emerald economy will go through the roof. Get them now before 1.18 comes!

        In 1.17, deepslate emeralds exist. In 1.18, they do not. Mojang changed how ore generation works in 1.18. Deepslate emeralds will only naturally generate in 1.17. Get them while you can!~

        Interesting! Thanks for sharing. This will give some extra incentive to stay out mining for longer.

        No problem Nick~ Make sure you try to collect as many as possible, because I have a very good feeling that they will be pretty valuable when 1.18 rolls out!

      First one to fork Audacity with a sleek and modern UI gets my first download to replace the original Audacity (with telemetry...)!!!

        For Linux, and not Windows? I'll wait. I don't even know what it looks like either. My guess is that it's the same UI as Audacity.

        Yeah, it's the exact same as Audacity currently, just without telemetry

      Muse, what were you thinking?!? RIP Audacity, you were good, real good, maybe even the best... :(

        After reading the link 607 posted in that thread, it seems that there so far isn't much to worry about. Good to know. :D

      I call to a vote that we get rid of stupid units such as Kibibytes (KiB), Mebibytes MiB), Gibibytes (GiB), Tebibytes (TiB), etc..., and all the others that represent multiples of 1024. Things were so much simpler with Kilobytes (KB), Megabytes (MB), Gigabytes (GB), and so on...

        It is confusing if they mean something different in computing. And whereas the difference between 1024 and 1000 is not so big, it adds up, as you can see in my screenshot.

        Agreed 607. Shame Microsoft doesn't care much and offer measurements in both. I've seen the 1,024 and 1,000 variants used appropriately in Linux. Now that we're talking about it, I wonder what Apple has done with OSX and how those bytes are measured?

        I'm just curious if Steve Jobs thought ahead and had his operating system support and display both numbers, where appropriate, rather than the cheap way Microsoft did it with Windows.

        I dunno I’d have thought things would be kept the same until you hit a 70% vaccination rate, not having Dr. Fauci wheeled out to say you don’t have to wear masks anymore if you’re vaccinated lol. Joke country tbh

        America is a complex creature to understand. Best you do not attempt to do so. Even with Trump gone, 40-ish% of the country still believes Trump won the election and that COVID-19 is nothing to take seriously. Biden wanted (I think) 75% of the country vaccinated before the 4th of July. Well that ain't happening.

        At least I've kept to my own moral obligation and kept myself safe and alive by getting vaccinated. That's what matters. When the "Delta Variant" runs rampant through America... God have mercy on those souls who didn't get vaccinated...

      Windows 11 should be called "Windows 10.1", in my opinion.

      Microsoft, remove the TPM 2.0 requirement for Windows 11!!! >:(

      Windows 11 can run Android apps, natively? Okay Microsoft, you got my attention! :o
