High refresh rates are a scourge. You're at 60fps, having a great time. You see a 120hz screen, now you're ruined on 60. You glimpse 165, now 120 is trash. Some guy tries to show you 240, you shut your eyes, you don't open them til he's dead. You've killed a man now and for what

I've been getting back into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series after many years, and the most relatable part is how everyday objects like doors and elevators have been imbued with artificial intelligence and it just makes them obnoxious and frustrating to use and everyone hates it.

The entire film industry has lost its mind. I wouldn't give this movie 5%. The writing is atrocious (which checks out), the acting is overly dramatic like a highschool play, and it uses boredom to weaponize the viewer into making it to the predictable end. <1 out of 10 Sanborns

A month ago I started working on an FPGA core for Taito's Final Blow, the first game on their F2 arcade system. Yesterday I had it running on the #MiSTerFPGA with all major systems in place. Lots of bugs left to fix, but the hardest parts are done.

★ Something Is Rotten in the State of Cupertino

daringfireball.netSomething Is Rotten in the State of CupertinoWho decided these personalized Siri features should go in the WWDC keynote, with a promise they’d arrive in the coming year, when, at the time, they were in such an unfinished state they could not be demoed to the media even in a controlled environment?
