Technology@lemmy.world•Michigan residents voted down a $16 billion Stargate AI data center, then construction began anywayEnglish
191·6 days agoI mean, it’s shady for headlines, but it’s not false. The board are residents, and the did vote it down. Then they “settled” and I’m betting it was a pittance compared to the data center value. In reality, it was probably a situation where whomever was backing the data center said to throw lawyers and/or money at the problem until it went away.

Wow, is his name Claude? FFS

Technology@lemmy.world•Google Chrome is reportedly auto-installing a massive 4GB AI model without your consentEnglish
310·10 days agoIt’s roughly twice the size of the base app, if it’s the same as Edge, which on my machine is 1.82GB. It’s shady as hell, but “massive” is doing a lot of lifting in this headline.

Technology@lemmy.world•Roses are Red... I read the front-page... Microsoft quietly deletes Windows 11 doc pushing 32GB RAM for gaming after outrageEnglish
4·11 days agoI built my original Windows 10 gaming PC in 2015, with 16GB RAM. I recently re-rolled it as a CachyOS gaming PC, and had the same RAM. All was fine. VRAM on the other hand, yeah, go big or don’t bother. I thought I was getting a great deal on a RTX 5050 with 8GB VRAM. It is woefully inadequate for modern AAA games, for sure. Thank goodness for protondb.com though.
RTX 5090 is only $4000 right now… /s
YMMV depending on the types of games you play. GPU-bound ones (most, these days) will suffer without a good GPU. CPU-bound games (Civilization series comes to mind) are easier to build for.
I was hoping the RAM shortage and resulting VRAM price hikes would force the game development industry to renew a focus on performance and efficiency in resource utilization, but I think they are just trying to ride out this likely multi-year RAM price gouging we’re currently in.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•A song of praise for mergerFS and SnapRAIDEnglish
1·15 days agoThis is why I went with Unraid. Being able to slap whatever drives in that I have on hand was the primary driver for getting away from btrfs (Synology). And that build was about 3 months before RAM prices started to explode last year, which I read as “all parts gonna skyrocket”, which they have.
