overview for QuadratureSurfer

Dell is not cutting jobs by having AI compensate for those positions, they're cutting down on sales teams and creating a new team that focuses on AI products.

From the article:

The latest job cuts appear to be part of a broader reorganization of Dell's sales teams, including the creation of a new group focused on AI products and services – an area where Dell plans significant growth. For instance, in June, Dell, alongside Supermicro, was selected to provide hardware infrastructure for Elon Musk's xAI startup's AI supercomputer.

Depends on what you're using.
With local models you use something called a "negative prompt" to exclude anything that you don't want in the image.

If you really want this to work, you would have to train/fine tune a model by feeding it a bunch of images that show that person's handwriting.

if you're just asking ChatGPT to do this for you then you're doing it wrong.

RMQ Meshing Test is Live. Potentially testing up to 1k players per Shard (robertsspaceindustries.com)

A few more details here, but definitely read through the known issues if you decide to hop in:

We are intending to leave this build up for up to 24 hours but could come down sooner if blocking issues occur.
This test will have each Stanton shard split into many authoritative zones. We are planning to start the test out at 1 DGS with 100 players as a baseline and increase this to add more DGS with 500 and then as high as 1000 players

Edit: An easy way to download this is just to rename your "LIVE" folder to "TECH-PREVIEW".

Edit2: If they make it to 1000 players, this will be handled by 6 dedicated game servers (DGS) being meshed together into a shard.

The 500 player count will be achieved with 3 DGS

Global Chat will work, but will only show players in your DGS and not everyone in the shard: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/lobby/38230/message/55594666

Yeah until the cops pull you over and take your cash under civil asset forfeiture because it's "suspicious that you have so much cash on hand".

The features you miss out on would be direct deposit from checks and app notifications (usually there are a few that you want enabled but are only available through the app).

Good luck when banking apps start doing this.

I really like his idea of performance components and the benefit/drawback ideas he comes up with.

CIG working on a new game? - Star Citizen Spectrum by QuadratureSurfer in c/[email protected]

Since "Arena Commander" also shows up on that list, this could just be a smaller mini game that ends up in the verse somehow.

For all we know this could be one of the first arcade games implemented on one of those arcade machines in-game.

But there's still a chance that they are working on building out a different game.

Best to wait until we have more info...

That or let rampant speculation run free! Sounds like a Karaoke game to me!

I'm hoping they implement a way to assign crimestat to players that "flick" cargo at other players or ships in armistace zones.
