GDI Video - Cooking Up Language Learning - DTNS 4531 Extended
Added 2023-05-31 21:50:12 +0000 UTCTwitter plans on expanding its Community Notes feature where volunteer contributors can add context to posts in order to combat misinformation. If the notes are voted as helpful, they show up for all Twitter users. Language learning app Memrise is launching a Discord integration for its Membot and website. At Computex, Nvidia showed off the ability to talk in natural language to NPCs via its Avatar Cloud Engine, or ACE for Games. Is it something game devs will be looking into or is it just a fancy tech demo?
SONY PHONEY BALONEY - GDI 4531 starts at 31:15
So many records. Do you remember the Xperia Play? Scott has thoughts on Sony making a new handheld gaming console. Portable gaming talk takes over. Would you want a foldable handheld? Is there too much shoehorning? Would cloud gaming peak your interest in a portable gaming device? So much talk about gaming OS’s. Do you remember WebTV? Do you like the glorious wrecks in tech products? So many old tech stories. Too many Franklins. Did Roger buy a Mac with a K?
Starring Tom Merritt, Rich Stroffolino, Scott Johnson, Roger Chang, Amos, Joe.

2023-06-01 14:32:46 +0000 UTCI think it was this show where there was talk about the Hackintosh and all the Mac clones. When Windows 8 first came out, I had absolutely no interest in upgrading my laptop, but I knew I needed something to replace my slowing Windows 7 machine and couldn't afford a Mac at the time. I ended up dual booting into Linux and using open-sourced Mac themes. That's the great thing about Linux - how easy it is to customize. Even today, there is still a thriving community based on theming Linux to look and behave like a Mac. Just search in your preferred search engine for "linux mac themes". Here are two examples: https://linuxhint.com/ubuntu-macos-theme/ https://youtu.be/Y6k7THQ3x6U While I'm now all-in on the new M2 Macbook Air, I do have fond days of using that Linux Macbook to get me through the Win8 era. Keep up the great work. Thanks for all the hard work. Technomensch (aka Marc K from NoVA)
